With the release of the new WM 6.1 official ROM, I am now ready to finally upgrade to it, but I am just wondering, which one should I choose to install. The official sprint release, or the DCD 3.2.0 one, I have never installed a custom ROM before so i would also have to unlock my phone or whatever. All I really want is the best speed, stability, and RAM. I want all the features to work, like task manager, internet sharing, TCPMP, WMWifiRouter etc... So which would be better for my needs, or are they both too buggy and should i just stick with the official WM 6.0 ROM that i am currently running?
Killer, You have a tough choice!! if you want the best speed with a slim down rom without the bloat that sprint loads on it, then I would go with DCD. I've had his roms for over a year now and upgrade every time he comes up with a new version.
Both The official and DCDs work just great. I like the ability to cook my own programs on my phone. There is a small bug on DCDs 3.2 right now but I'm sure he will fix in no time.
and about unlocking!!! Just flash Olipro 2.40 and that will take care of any future flashing. Also Read the Wiki... it will help you decide!
Good Flashing!!!
DCD's ROM's will always outperform carrier stuff because DCD strips out the useless crap/junk like SQLCE, and other nonsense that no one cares about or uses.
Plus, DCD is a certified pimp. You cant go wrong with that.

He is pretty gangsta, thats for sure. If you want it all, go with DCD. And by all i mean stability and speed with memory. Use his kitchen and build a rom with only what you need in it.

We can't argue with this!!!!
If you flash a sprint ROM you're probably going to stick with it until the next official sprint ROM comes out.. which is NEVER (this is the LAST update sprint is doing to their moguls).
If you flash a dcd ROM you're probably going to stick with it until the next dcd ROM comes out.. which will probably be in the near future (days or weeks).
I think a better question for yourself is how far are you REALLY willing to go?
flashing custom ROMs is kinda like CRACK. once you start, it's really hard to stop.
Thanks for the informative responses, so basically, all I need to do is install/flash olipro 2.4 and then I can upgrade to custom ROMs as I would to any official ROM?
If so is there a very easy to follow guide on how to use olipro and install a kitchen?

You want the Titan Upgrade forum.
The guides and info that you want is available and up-to-date in the Titan Wiki.
DCD Roms
So any of his current versions include Sprint Navigation ? That is one app I can't live without....
is there an easy way to search this forum for dutch roms, when i do a search i come up with about a million results
Maybe sum1 wants to point out to me some of the newer roms wich are in dutch, this would be much apriciated.
Excuse me for my noobnes
To be safe you can flash an HTC windows mobile 6.1 rom at http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=59&cat=2&dl_id=113 .
If you want 6.5, I don't think there are any dutch roms available just now. For any non-htc rom, you need and want to install HardSPL. Correct me if I'm wrong, but for 6.5, I think you need to stick to english.
this is the original one i allready have this one, i want a cooked one, with tons of new things in it. I have been reading about touchflow3d and stuff.
i downloaded this one M-Amine 2.0 FINAL but didnt turn off my virusscanner and it came up with a trojan, i believe this is a false melding
now i have to wait another 14 minutes to try and download it again.
Is it safe for me to use this one, or are there, better/safer ones to use ?
Yes M-Amine 2.0 FINAL is a good rom and clean free of virus's alot of anti virus see them as a threat for some reason.Dont forget to hard spl before you install your rom if you havent already.
hmm somehow i can't connect my touch cruise useing USB, i always sync my phone with bluetooth, now i see i need to connect my phone with usb and run active sync, but my pc doesnt see my phone true usb.....
going to search the forums, if you guys know anything plz inform me about it
thx in advance
fixed the connection problem, so now i just run the ROMUpdateUtility, wich is inside the zip file and after that the one that came with M-Amine 2.0 FINAL ?
haha, starting to look like i am talking to myself here, but never the less, thx for your info guys.
It was a bit if figuring out what to do excactly but i managed to update to M-Amine 2.0 FINAL. It looks great, going to see how it all works, play with it a bit and see how it feels, and going to find out how to donate after dinner...
If i would want to try out other roms, can i do this right away or do i have to run the HardSPL again? for it is still uncertain to me what this does excactly but i will try and learn more about that for sure.
And if it is not to much to ask, can someone point me in the right direction to find some other dutch roms, to compare it with ? thx in advance
hehe the wife is going balistic downstairs, have to run and eat dinner or all hell breaks loose
thx
I'm still here Just having diner as well!
If you decide to give another rom a try, you don't need to reflash hardspl. You can just flash the new rom (but sometimes a rom includes a radio sometimes is doesnt). I've had M-Amine 2.0 Final quiet a while (dutch too), but recently I gave the latest PDAviet a try (win.mob.6.5) and I really like the look and interface! (but it's english!) See and judge for yourself!
For the dutch roms, i think m-amine is the best, you have a couple of others, but you can search the polaris thread only for that.
Eet smakelijk!
I think its hard to find a dutch rom besides the Anime one.
But on the other had, once you are using a WWE (World Wide English), you will get used to the language very soon.
I personnaly like the Khanx Rom very much, although there is a little bug in it since version 3 (carkit bug). Version 1.5 was perfect for me. So back to my 2nd favorite, the c_shekar rom.
I am very much interested in your experiences with other roms and preferences.
Dat het je moge bekomen!
my rom
Hi there,
welcome in the great world of xda. There are not so much dutch roms for polaris indeed but just try the wwe-ones. It's true that you get used to it very fast. I'm using a rom with m2d instead of m3d 'cause rom with m2d is usually faster (smoother). I'm using '3LIT3 VI full' and I'm verry pleased with it. I'm also a bit into skin editing and stuff, you can see that here.
Greetz, Steady Ron.
I have had my HD2 for a month now. Been running the stock 1.48 ROM with all the tweaks and fixes from XDA. Everything works great. The newer 1.66 ROM has just been released in my country (I'm in South Africa, things are a bit behind here), and i was thinking of either flashing the stock or a custom ROM.
I've read on these forums from a fair number of people who claim that cooked ROMS are inherently unstable and suffer from random freezes.
Is there any truth to this. I was running Sakajati's Hyperdragon ROMS on my old Kasier, and they were 100% stable.
Or is the instability a result of multiple ROM flashes without using the MTTY process?
Thanks for your help.
I'd say run the stock 1.66 ROM and see how you get on, it might be fine with a few tweaks. After that, look into custom ROMs if you feel you need one
Hi Eddy.
Thanks for the reply.
I'll give the stock 1.66 a go.
was thinking of changing the original rom
which custom rom should i go for need advice

it really depends on your needs and deires... the only thing you can do is look through the various ROMs and then choose one that suits you or that you like... if its not what you want then change it...
I have been looking at a lot of ROMS, have not tried any yet.
I think i will probably go with Laurentius Ultimate power. I like the fact that his ROM includes a Radio, and he also does a lot of beta testing before releasing a ROM.
I've just flashed stock 1.66, will try that for a while. Then go the cooked route.
Duttys HG series are very good, using it at the moment (WinMo 6.5-style as I hate the new new buttons) - link is in my sig for those interested
from my personal experience i can tell you the best custom roms are faster, more stable and also have extra features that make them more fun compared to stock. but for this to happen you need to be careful with your flashing method.there is an excellent thread in the 1st page of the ROM development forum which i recommend you study thoroughly before attempting your first custom flash. also, remember to always flash a stock ROM in between 2 customs (or use mtty) and always hard reset the phone after the 1st boot. roms are also radio sensitive so you might also have to flash different radios to obtain the best combination. perhaps it sounds a little complicated but it's not really and definetely worth to try.
cheers mate and have fun!
deleted double post
If u r looking for stable rom, try 6.5 rom, not 6.5.x.
6.5.x roms is more finger friendly but contain more bugs than 6.5
Try Miri's rom or Xanny's rom. I used both and satisfied with both
Hi Antaed.
Thanks for reply. I've read all the HSPL and flashing posts. Not too worried about the process.
I agree with what you say, on my tytnII, custom ROM was much faster.
Good to hear you're not have stability problems with the custom ROMS for HD2

glad to help mate. i'm not a flash addict (just yet ) so i tried only roms from the notorious chefs - dutty, laurentius, xannytech, energy, etc. i wasn't disappointed by any of them, all are very good but each is different in its own way. my favorite is artemis (from sternas) because i find it closest to my needs - leo only packages, close to stock, essential addons and of course great, great performance. i recommend you try a few yourself so you can decide which is best for you.
Hello,
I'm really sorry to ask such a dumb question, but its really hard for me to see the advantages between the thousands of different ROMs out there. I'm still using the old 1.48 ROm version and I want to update to something new. But I don't know to which ROM?
Is there maybe something like a ranking? Like most people use this ROM, 2nd place this etc.? Which are the most popular ones? best ones?
I know this is always subjective but for the moment some hints would help me.
Thanks a lot!!
do you mean a stock rom or a cooked rom
i have xannytech evo 1.4 its good.. i have tried alot of roms but i think xannyi the best..
This one

The Skyy,
Sorry but we don't do Best Rom threads any more. The best ROM is the one that works best for you.
My advice is either to stick with the stock roms from HTC or, if you are interested in cooked roms, read the features of each ROM in the Rom Dev forum, try a few, weigh them all up then make up your own mind.
Good luck with it

Im talking about HD2 roms ...
I've seen new features in the cooked ROMs like "htc messaging client with securebox option" which is NOT included in the latest official hd2 ROM (TMO 2.13)
Im just wondering, where can i get all these latest packages? Im trying to cook my personal ROM and i want to use latest versions, but most of the packages from tmo 2.13 are already outdated, and i can see newer ones in the cooked ROMs.
Can anyone help me with finding them?
ask to the guy that has it...
I am very dissapointed ... either no one knows, or no one cares to share. I was expecting more from XDA.
anyway, thanks.
You can have all what you want here in XDA......what did you expect more than this?
Mybe what you are searching isnt from Leo,maybe isnt the latest TMOUS release.
If someone has a new package thats mean that you can have it too,just dont be lazy and search.
Thread closed.
Reason: Shipped rom collection is sticky, need only to dump some roms to find what you search.
