This may be a stupid question... but I can't seem to find the version of my extended rom. Usually it is in the same screen as rom,radio,protocol version right?
I have a T-Mobile Vario II with shipped rom.
It's not really that important, just a little stupid.

I would like to have people's feedback on this please cause at the moment i am using the O2 Asia Rom and it is slow and crap.
I have a O2 sim card and am in the UK so which rom would be the best to use....
I think the i-mate plays faster than the o2, and the t-mobile is really poor i think...
im going to use the German Extended O2 Cab's to get the O2 look, but just wondering if people found a different rom better in anyway.

Use SPB Benchmark on a plain rom & test the different versions & see which one is best. Should be pretty easy, maybe time consuming.
My guess: as long as you ditch the ext-rom it doesn't make a big difference which rom is used. So I stick to TMO's 1.13WWE, which is still the most recent.

After trying the 1.12 and 1.13 both rom and radio, i've stick with the last TMO rom with 1.12 radio, it's the best and the most stable setup i've had :wink:
HTC Charmer, which in all fairness has as much in common with the Wizard as it does the Magician if not more, anyway...
Anyone know of any alternative ROM sources of tweaked ROM's off other devices, not happy with T-Mob rom, going from T-Mob to Qtek on my Wizard made it loads faster so in theory any Rom is likely to be quicker than the Molasses fast T-Mob one.
Hi,
Can someone tell me which WM6 ROM for the Vario is the most stable and fast one at this moment.
I'm not really interested any tools that are integrated in the ROM, just the most table and fast ROM.
I'm using a dutch WM6 ROM at tis moment but there is something wrong with it: it keeps on asking me align the screen every time I boot.
Thanks for your advice.
I like the TNT series
i usually get the official one because it comes with the least amount of software and i pretty much customize it from there
Here is his latest release

ur nt suppose to post these questions. It says somewhere in the forums. I asked a similar questionn, and a moderator had it removed and told me not to pst things that have to do with :which ROM is best" and things like that
Hi, I had the same problem, after each soft reset and every time I turned off my mda Ihad to calibrate. In the folder /windows/opstarten is a file called welcome.lnk if you remove this the problem is gone. BTW i am using the HTC rom.
There is actually a STICKY regarding which rom is the best blah blah blah...also, in the wiki are some rom linky's with some minor comparison notes. Stickies and wiki really are your friends.

Now to answer your question...I personally LOVE Jaguar...but each rom has it's quirks. Based on purely stable and fast and absolutely nothing else...TNT is a good rom, it just didn't fit MY needs. Jag is really stable but not as fast. Roms, like art, are subjective to individual tastes. What I like you may hate and vice versa.
I'm just curious, why do you guys flash your ROM? doesn't it cause problems later on? I know some people say it is faster but does a fragment of speed merit the change?
No offence to ROM developers, I've flashed my ROM but the question is merely there for speculation and to get the Polaris forum a little more active.
In my case:
1) I hate localized software (though I'm neither English, nor German)
2) Don't like branded ROMs - they're usually loaded with lots of crap and are slower (thank god I don't have an Eten - they come with trialware !!! )
3) Usually a newer ROM is better and more stable, and operators like O2 release ROM updates only once/twice per year...
4) It is fun (Well, not fully, since you have to reinstall all software after reflashing )

Simple answer: Why not ? ;-)
In fact, flashing the ROM of his device mainly give the opportunity to have much better device than the original. A good example is the HTC Touch (ELF). Even if customers have report numerous of problem, HTC haven't yet issued a ROM update for the French ROM. This is a good example and answer to your question "why flashing a ROM".
Polaris is a brand new device. We can expect a reaction from HTC (if they react) in the next months. During this time, you've the choice to
1. Live with the bugs until HTC decide (if they) to fix it
2. Use a cocked ROM to make your device (much-much-much) better
Of course, Flashing a ROM is always at risk for the user. Example with mine. I've ordered a Polaris in French. Actually the official French ROM isn't available. If I've a problem with my device, the warranty is down because I've flashed my device with an unsupported ROM.
On top of this, flashing is (for me) a nasty game ;-) It is dangerous but I like it !
I have noticed a performance increase with Hermes but I don't know whether this can be true for Polaris? Is the difference major?
If it is, warranty or not, I'll flash...

Of course the Difference is always NOTICEABLE because its meant to make your device function a lot better in more ways than what comes with the original ROM's.

With the Bepe ROM the Polaris is 1.5 tome more faster (surely due to the Windows Mobile 6.1 layer).
And, for a "preview" as Bepe say, I find this really stable. Of course, things can always be better. For this, we have to be patient or...
...learn on how to cook ... ;-)
I subjectively feel a quite noticeable speed improvement with the WWE ROM over the previously default German O2 Orbit 2 ROM. I noticed (and htcclassaction is big on that) a high impact on TomTom. TomTom worked alot smoother on the O2 ROM.
But I dont mind that, so I'm happily waiting for a HTC or cooked German replacement ROM while using the WWE on my Orbit 2.
I am looking for Windows Mobile 6.1 original ROM (with no or minimum tweaks) for Wing. can anybody send me the link. Thank you.
there is no 6.1 "original rom" for the wing.
you have to use a custom rom
I think this might be what you're looking for:

The "T-MO 4.26.531.4" is the one which ships with current Wings.
Hope that helps
thats not 6.1, though
most customs are better than stock anyway.
tmobile just wants us to buy the MDA Vario IV, because there is NO reason for not giving us the update.
i'd buy it IF THEY OFFERED IT IN THE US!
they will, eventually. if not, they are stupid, i would but it too!
