I have been looking for a cooked rom for the herald or tmobile wing but all I can find is the pdaviet one it's better then the ship rom but still has a few bugs, the ideal thing is to cook my own rom but I dont have the time or the patience I just like to flash the damn thing. does anyone know of a good cooked rom out there other then the pdaviet?
You need to remember that rom take time. Give it a little while and plenty more will be out.
Hi! im new to this and I havn't tried to upgrade any ROM for my atom except for the ROM in the o2 website which is the 20060426B1WWE. I have read in the forums that there are a lot of ROM's available for upgrade and as far as I got it right, the AKU 3.3.3 is the final ROM and is stable for the WM5 platform? (kindly correct me if im wrong.) I want to know what is the difference between the AKU 3.3.3 and 20060426B1WWE ROM. Hows is the upgrade process? is it the same? I just download the ROM, run the .EXE file and wait till the upgrade is finished? Would love to know your inputs. tnx!
ROM for Atom is like OS for PCs. ROM comes in different features, different patches and different applications. The latest ROM from O2 is like a standard upgrade only. And it has been a long time since O2 released an upgrade to their ROM. Here in the forums, there is a lot of versions of ROM that you can use. But it is advisable to back up all your files first, including contacts, messages, notes, tasks, calendar notes / reminders and the likes 'coz once you upgrade your ROM all informations will be wiped out. The latest ROM that is available here is Sir Jiggs' WM6 AKU0.7.0 WWE. I myself use that ROM also and I'm very satisfied with it. (Thanks Sir Jiggs for the wonderful ROM! ). Though its an evaluation version, it works perfect on my Atom. If in any case, you didn't like the ROM after you upgraded it, you don't need to worry also because you can still go back to your previous ROM. Try reading other threads also to get an idea regarding the different ROMs. Gud luck!
So we have 3 different WM6 ROM's. Which one is you favorite?
Helmi
Xplode
PDAViet
I've tried all, but now returning to use Helmi's ROM as I found it's more stable.
Anyway, thanks Xplode and PDAViet for developing choices for us. I know many people chose yours.
viet one is just what i need
It seems that pdaviets and xplodes are of the same build and is an update to helmis rom. I personally have tried pdaviets and it is faster and a lot more stable than helmi's. Internet browsing is faster, multitasking is faster and a lot more stable. I can't wait for pdaviets final rom to come out.

Ooops, after posting the comment, I found that I haven't tried the new version of PDA Viet's ROM yet. Tried it and found it's great. Yes, it's much better than I expected. I love the welcome screen, the theme and X button functions (much better than the other two).
By the way, the new Xplode's ROM BA_5.2.1933_AKU_0.7_R0-xplode-fixed has quite old version of File Explorer like in WM5. I prefer the one in Helmi's and PDA Viet's ROM.
Sorry PDA Viet, I cannot change my vote to you now. Anyway, I like your ROM a lot.
Cheer!!!
Im with Helmi's...
his work is the Best...
being the first....
being better over fixes and updates arent being the Best one....
just making them look like a fly over a giant's head,
metaphorically speaking.
so i'll go with Helmi's pioneer WM6 ROM for BA.
I prefer Xplode....I always like his work...
I'm using Xplode's because it is much faster than Helmi's, and because I have the same device as Xplode so I know the ROMs will work well.

really??? I'm going to try this.
PV has 2 versions of ROMS... 5.2.1933 and 5.2.2000... Which one are we talking about?
I'm using PV 5.2.1933 now will try 5.2.2000 soon. This rom is fast, is there will be a kitchen for PV Rom???
Hello!
I'm new here. I'll upgrade my BA soon, so I need to know: What version of WM6 is the best?
Helmi Windows Mobile 6 Profesional R0 or
WM6 Pro CE OS 5.2.1933 (Build 18533.0.7.0) or
WM6 OS 5.2.2000 (Build 20000.1.0.0.PV.HAT)
Best WM6 ROM (as at Jan 2008)
Hi there, I have used both of the Roms at the top of your list and I find Xplodes to be faster and less buggy and I am sure it uses less power but can't prove it. I think I liked the fonts better in Helmi's Rom but it is amasing how quickly you get used to a new ROM.
One thing is for sure WM6 on the BA Rocks!
My personal pick as at today 14-Jan-2008 is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=342142
Enjoy.
Another vote for xplode's ROM. It's fast and very stable.

how different
what are the main differences between helmi's and explods? i am using helmi's and am pretty happy. i would like to try explods but can't figure out how to get it to take. i can't remember if i have to manually put into bootloader or not. one thing i can say is that i don't find anymore bugs in helmi's rom than i did with some stock roms provided by phone manufactures.

You make a great point, we often refer to these bugs as if Helmi or Xplode put them there, when really they were issues that existed in the software these guys ported to the BA.
Having recently upgraded from Helmi's to Xplodes I can say that an issue I had with fonts in Co-pilot is still there, which probably means it is with Co-pilot's WM5 version running on WM6. The ROM was definitely faster when I first installed it but now I think I have installed too many apps and it is slowing down for me.
I had an issue with my marsware weather panel causing failed boots (needed to go to safe mode, then reset) after a backup with Helmi's version, this issue is gone with Xplodes.
Both versions have inherited the 'issue' with having to turn on wifi twice.
I personally love the task/memory manager in Xplodes version, and the wireless today screen display plug in.
Either Way is so great to have WM6 on the BA.
Just updated my signature.

Thanks for the great forum on Wing upgrades and stuff!!!
I am just few days old ROM flasher so dont flame me
After reading all the stickys and following the links I got all the setup steps and necessary utilities(RUUs and so on).
The only thing that confuses me is which is the latest (read working) version of Touch IT for T-Mobile Wing WM6 Pro? I see here is the latest 4.17, 6.1, the noob guide points to 2.3 so I got
I read there is some issue with the Wing keyboard. Does this latest version fixes it or I need some other fix for it?
Thanks

There is already a cab for the wing keyboard fix. (Thanks David) Now we just need a fix for the MMS on Black 6.1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359696
ITJE's Touch-IT Roms are always exceptional. There has been an issue with MMS not working quite right and I don't know if this was solved or not... because I have not personally flashed the one that was released this past weekend... I'm sure it will be solved soon if it isn't solved already.
You can't go wrong with Touch-IT roms.
I've also been testing ASerg's new English rom which is quite good as well.
These are the links to ITJE's latest releases
NEW - Touch-IT v6.1.3 - Clean (updated with UC) (newest release)
Touch-IT wm6.1 19199.1.0.0 - Full (INCREDIBLY FAST & BATTERY EFFICIENT, MMS not working properly)
Touch-IT v4.4 and 4.41 WWE P4350 (11.jan.08) (runs perfectly, which is probably your safest bet)
