have any one found a STABLE ROM that thay used for 2-3 days without soft reset ?
im trying to find most stable ROM possible, preferably 6.5.3 or above, but the one i can trust not to hang for 2,3 days of hard core use as Music Player, Web Browser and Online connection to MSN/Skype for 24Houers.
with or without HTC Sence.
at the moment im not that concern about performance as any rom is still faster then my old treo pro lol
yup, a stock one.
I´m using the official one and no problems.
1.48 or 1.66 ? if 1.48 then why not 1.66 ?

You should try the Official 1.66.405.2 WWE ... it's most stable ROM for daily usage... it's included all the fixes from HTC ... so there is no problem... try it
just installed 1.66 ... installing all the soft i use, just installed Smaberg White 1 percent battery thing that makes % appear above the battery, now i have little black square next to it... but i guess that a different issue

In my opinion.... if you use the official ROM... just install BsB Tweaks and then it's fine...
Hi,
Where can I find "Install BsB Tweaks"
Thanks

will try that soon prob on Monday, i been using freyberry Premium_nomess V6 or whatever the latest one is, for a while (i hate HTC messaging) but it hangs occasional especially over night, i have to do a soft reset every morning for some reason which make it useless as alarm clock (although i have suspicion it maybe due to someting i install or combination of stuff i install coz no one else seems to have that problem)
but i kinda need HTC Album (facebook uploading) i guess its not in bearbone so i will try WMPhone version or something

Dutty's HG V.08. actually in HD2 i never get stuck..
Two weeks without a softreset that's thruly amazing especially
if you consider that WM 6.5.5 is not official and beta.
No mather which rom I use but everyday I do a softreset, kind of a habbit.
Currently I'm using the 2.07 T-Mob.
@Vladimir, no offence but I don't think you can open a thread like this and pick a rom based on the experiences people tell you here.
I think you need to test yourself as everyone has a different use/experience with a rom.
Just my 2 cents

I'm using MIRI's 6.5 ROM.
I have found it to be completely stable. I have to avoid 6.5.x ROMs 'cos Memory Map doesn't work properly on them.
The stock ROM is stable, but it's a mess! They should have included a way to tidy the cluttered start menu. Things are improved by installing BSB Tweaks.
IMHO there is no such thing as the perfect ROM!
There are number of factors to consider that can effect the overall stabilty of a ROM be it stock or cooked, a ROM that one person might find it to be flawless, the other might have issues, remember not all bugs are ROM related so consider the following points:-
- The 3rd party apps you use
- The network you are on
- The radio version you use or combination of the radio & rom
I'm currently using stock 1.66 ROM not that it's the best but it's been the most stable for my apps and daily use!
One thing that frustrates me is the lack of constructive feedback you get from people flashing various stock or cooked ROM's it's allways comments like "This ROM is very fast and stable" or "this the best ROM I've tried" what's funny is that you get these comments when they've only used the ROM for couple of hours or in some cases just 5 minutes!!!!
IMHO you must use the ROM for at least couple of days if not a week and once you've installed all your apps then you can establish how good the ROM is in your daily use only then you should give your feedback so that others can have a better idea of how the ROM really performs!!!

Guys, just wondering, I can't find anything conclusive over how many people have actually moved away from the UK O2 ROM to a cooked one. Can anyone who has made the jump tell me if there was a noticeable difference and what ROM you used. Also, were they functional for everyday use?
I will be moving to a cooked ROM later, but for the time being I have gone from the o2 rom to the HTC one on the FTP.
I'm happier with it. All the HTC stuff that o2 seem to uninstall (because they are losers) is there without any need to install it all yourself.
I can't see any reason to change as yet unless there is a good cooked rom a la meschle's Touch 4.0.
Likewise, I'll be moving to a cooked rom, but am waiting for someone to make the leap first!
Any reports (successful or otherwise) will be great!
Hey guys
I've been running Bepe's 6.1 preview for the last week. To be honest, the only improvement is the threaded messaging.
I found the o2 rom quite good, but if there's something to flash I'll always give it a go. By the time you've added all your own apps it really doesn't make a huge difference.
App wise I'm running:
Vistahide battery gauge
Samsung time
o2 plus2.3 - with shortcuts & diary enabled
Spb pocket suite
Not that that has anything to do with the rom!?!
Has anyone over here tried upgrading the radio to 1.58.25.14?
Jamie
I'm still on the o2 rom, with:
PocketRAR
ClearTemp
Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool
HTC Home plugin
Home Customizer
WkTask (I really like the battery meeter along the top and the task buttons)
Until a stable WinMo 6.1 rom comes out with everything I'll stick with the o2 rom.
Why they removed the HTC home I'll never know

Me, but have not noticed any difference.
I think we should start a campaign to get meschle to defect to polaris. I have already donated to towards this campaign. We would need to set up a new thread and link it to the artemis wm6 thread.
The biggest problem with the O2 ROM is that tweaks don't work. You can change a registry value and after a soft-reset it will go back to the original value. Annoying!
That's why I use that tweaking tool, it actually sets the values. Although it's not as exansive as a registry
i'm in the US using a UK Orbit 2 and i've been running the .53 version of bepe's WM 6.1 ROM. aside from the improved responsiveness and threaded messaging, you start out with 140MB of available storage and 69MB of available RAM. with all my programs loaded, i have 85 MB available, which is important to me. with the stock ROM, i started off with 89MB available before loading my standard set of apps. i've held off using newer versions because i'm happy with what i have and how it's working so far.

What tweaking tool? The Kaiser one? I thought that messed peoples device up.
Don't see why I would want to flash for the time being.
To me, flashing a rom is so that I don't need to spend so much time configuring the device (because everything is pre-configured in cooked roms). And as there ain't many changes to the current cooked roms, it is quicker to configure the device than to mess with flashing.

You'll never find the best ROM suited to your specific taste unless you try 'em all. Me? i'm totally sold out with Panosha's Butterfly ROM but at the moment am testing Bepe's v0.56 Full, and so far, liking it too! Cooked ROM's are always way faster and more responsive than the shipped one's.
Do any one suggest the fast, stable and latest rom for my blue angel.
I tried the build 20958 but it is not quiet stable and eat battery very quickly.
Please post the download links too.
Is there any newer then build 20958?
Thank you.

或许你可以尝试19xxx/202xx,虽然没有太多新特性，但不是那么耗电！
207xx/209xx[Aku1.4/Aku1.5]是一种新特性的版本，但很耗电！
In my opinion sun_dream's 20758 ROM is the best so far. I've been using it since it came out and I was impressed how blazing fast was when I installed it

I'm not agree with you.
I have several issues with sundream's new rom.
Slow speed and battery draining are the most annoying problems of them...
My battery goes up to 3 days depending on what I'm doing on the pda . Sometimes I charge it every day but it is with a lot of entertaining during the day - games, one or two movies, listening to music, calls, chat, but if I use it normally the battery is enough for two days But this is only my opinion
P.S. I use the BA @ 530mhz with stock battery .

I charge my mobile every day. It don't matter for me for charging. The only things is that it lack many build-in utilities like the HERMES Roms.

yes, mustking, i think sun_dream wants to build a vanilla type of rom for users to customize themselves. Also, because BA's rom flashing images are much smaller than the hermes (like 25mb vs. 55mb), so cookers have much harder time even to get the image into the tight space, let alone extra utilities.
at any rate, sun_dream's rom is UC capable, so you can make it however you like it.
Use xplode's SD card extrom. contains HTC Home, HTC Flash Lite (if u dun wanna install IE8+Flashlite 3, Adobe reader, MMS, and some other minor software
(only works if u havent reformatted ur extrom partition to 128KB)
u can make ur own extrom by editing the cfg and adding ur cabs

Yes, true. But they may include good utilities such as HTC Home, Slice, Connections wizard in EXT Rom.

Yes, but i exactly mean to say that they may include it in EXT ROM with the ROM compressed file. Because some time say certain developer already included the HTC Task manager in the ROM and many of us like the Task manager of the PDAVIET Rom. So, if they only provide the different task managers in the EXT Rom and allow us the customize it our self. Then it will be a good thing i think.
mustking, I have merged the ext rom in wm2003 to create the 60M space, so I don't have that in wm6.1 now (or do I??? ) So, assuming ext rom is not available for users like me, it is safer for cooker to build rom that without, no?

I am not sure that how much space is available in WM6.1 for the EXT ROM. But, just including the utilities in the EXT ROM will be good step instead of searching foe the latest cabs...

I have been using sundream's new rom for a couple of days, but I am finding it hard to switch on my IR. I need this option as I use the IR Remote software. I am not able to find the IR option in the Comm Manager. Someone please help....
Hi,
I do not know if IR is indeed working on this version, because I have not tried it, but the proper way to switch on IR might be:
Start - Settings - Connections - Beam - tick "Receive all incoming beams "

There may be a good chance that this thread maybe closed... but I'll ask it anyway...
What ROM are you using and why?
I'm asking as sometimes, reading threads like this exposes people to an idea/function/app/etc that they didn't consider in another ROM...
I'm using BlackSTONEhenge because it's really fast and not too heavy on the memory usage...

I was using cloudys rom, this is close to stock, very stable and fast, also low on memory useage.
I used to use his rom on my diamond back in the day.
Now flashed back to XannyTech Grid Leo 2.6 rom, as this rom is perfect for me. Fast, lots of tabs, eye candy, apps installed etc....
I am using XannyTech Grid Leo 2.4 as the version 2.5 and 2.6 seems to be a bit buggy to me.
I'll allow this thread to continue (for now), but I'll move it to general discussion forum as its not about rom development
As for which rom I use....see my sig ......as for why I use it, you'll just have to flash it to find out!!!
Rick
p.s. I have 2 HD's, one for general use, one for the constant flasher (me) who wants to try the latest builds. My sig only represents my everyday rom
I was using T2M rom v23544! It's very nice!! free RAM 60MB....!
Using ROM in signature.
Stable, not too many unneeded programs cooked, all programs I need (see signature) work...
After installation of everything I need I still have over 74 MB program memory free...
Oh, and Manila 2.1, which I like more than 2.5

boring huh....just the way I like it
Occasionally google maps will have glitch where the screen doesn't refresh properly after the sip has been on there, but thats about it
XannyTech Grid Leo 2.4 is used here for the same reason as wind79, but in addition it's the only rom I've come across that can control the song playback forward and backward via volum control when the screen is turned off. XT lost something on the way from 2.4 onward. =(
Any other roms around that do the volume/song selection trick?
I am use:Rom..kwbrs Topix 3.5.10 [Sense 2.5.2012][5.2.21897] without hTC messaging
Stable and good battery..45% memories after softreset. good performances...
I'm using Miniterror's.
I liked Miri's, but something (can't remember now what), made me look for better, tried Energyrom, but the Cookie thing messed with my volume buttons, and was a hassle to fix.
I expected Cloudyfa's to be amazing, but the radio was bad for me and I tried Miniterror on a whim.
I'm very happy. I just wish he included some of the apps (like GPS stuff and the action screen) like in the Energy ROM, then it would be perfect.
I'm planning on going to the current release, but so far, I'm problem free so I'm slow to move...

I'm a Dutty rom fan... see my current rom in my signature. This rom seems to endure anything, it's fast, reliable and I found no bugs whatsoever! You just need to take it easy on installing apps and pay some attention to running processes and close useless ones from time to time. With this rom seem to work any Sense 2.5 mod (and I tried allot of them). Oh, I'm not a wm6.5.x follower (don't like that stupid bottom bar, and also that stupidly narrow taskbar) so I'll stick to 6.5, it's more appropriate for our Blascktone.

Hi danim, where can i download this ROM? I went to the link you provided, but can't find the download link...
please advice
energy rom use on my HD why? simply i dont no.......eny beter sugest...
I was using miris until he stopped support for them.
I also had GPS problems (maybe it was my radio...) 5 seconds lock - 5 seconds no lock - really frustrating.
Reflashed with latest radio and energys latest titanium last weekend (I like my HD minimal)
It's got 90% of the apps I need (I added pocket player and SKTools), is super fast, and I get a GPS lock within seconds everywhere now - great because I work abroad (and I get lost a lot).
Miris roms served me well, but this new energy rom is even faster - very very happy with it so far.

P.S. I have tried many ROMs myself, but none so stable.
Well guys, after a couple weeks with the stock TMOBILE rom I conclude that it's just USELESS.
I can't even use the phone... It's getting stuck when I'm trying to call someone, stuck when viewing images, stuck stuck stuck, at least 5 times a day.
Plus a million SOD's a day... I tried everything, from losing all apps, to modifying the registry.
I NEED A NEW ROM
But there are so many over there, I do not know what to choose.
I need:
1. As little visual tweaks as possible, i'd like to take care of that myself (CHT Cooked in is fine though)
2. Maximum system stability and performance, I DON'T WANT HANGS FROM SIMPLE OPERATIONS SUCH AS CALLING SOMEONE
3. No bloatware
4. Not much bugs (ie good support, constantly worked on, not a 1 time "job" )
Basically If it can resemble the stock one, but with more stability, tweaks and performance boosts, then i'm happy.
I have the sticky flashing manual in hand, so all I need is a recommendation.
Looking forward to flashing this thing today, thank you very much XDA.
Energy ROM Cookie's Reference ROM
this is a custom rom close to stock as you're going to get, please make sure you read loads before flashing.

Or the standard sense reference or full. I recommend using the 23569 builds as well. more finger friendly and slightly quicker. Also there is an advantage with the full version in that if you wish to update the rom in future you can backup your settings using the energy settings exporter and then reimport them.
regarding the builds mentioned - can you expand ? links ?
thanks !
Exporter sounds GREAT.
Basically there are two builds of almost all the custom roms. One build will be the latest 6.5 build (21907, same WM version as the stock roms but with some bug fixes) then there is the 23569 (or higher) builds. These are WM 6.5.5. Some big changes here to the way the start menu works and also to the UI to make it more finger friendly. It's also a little quicker than WM 6.5 but (apparently. i've not found any yet) more buggy then WM 6.5. Also as i said (and i've now checked this) custom roms also include newer, less buggy, versions of sense (AKA manilla)
I suggest EnergyROM
Great, I think I will go for Energy.Leo.23569.Sense2.5.Cookie.Reference.Jun.26.7z
Is that OK for me ? (well, is it better than what i have now )
Is there a settings exporter in Energy.Leo.21907 ?
If you have the T-Mobile US HD2, make sure you use the right radio for your device.
That would do nicely although i don't know if it includes the exporter tool. You may want to look at the full cht version.
Good point about the radio. I have a UK version so i can use whatever i want. The right radio roms for the TMOUS devices have verison numbers that look like this: 2.xx.50.xx. the 50 bit is important as radios with the 50 in it have the unlock code for the extra ram in them and are compatible with the 1024MB rom chips. Also never ever use a radio with a version number like this: 2.xx.51.xx. The 51 radios will brick your phone and they can not be recovered as far as i am aware.
And yes afaik there is a setting exporter in the WM 6.5 builds
My radio is 2.10.50.26
Is that OK ?
Just how much faster is the 6.5.5 over the regular one ? I'm not liking that lower start button anyway so if it's not really faster i'll pass.
Looks kinda like an iPhone.. Less " serious "
m3ph - what ROM have you had in mind with the Exporter build in and the upper start button and CHT ?
I thank you for all the help... I am feeling positive about my HD2 again.. Can't wait to flash it !
Just making sure I get everything right about all the different Energies so I don't reflash and reflash a thousand times... Making a concious decision

the radio will be fine.
The difference in speed is not massive so i wouldn't worry about it.
The rom i'm thinking of will be at this link: http://hotfile.com/dl/50755734/bde591c/Energy.Leo.21907.Sense2.5.Cookie.Jun.26.Take2.7z.html
Sorry if i'm being a little slow. i'm trying to eat my din, while texting the mrs, getting nfs world beta to work and figure out why sense will not show around 3500 of my messages and thinks my sister is my best mate
Deal, I will burn that ROM then, in the 21907 version and settle down.
Does it have the exporter for future upgrades ?
Looks like i'm fixed then ! Thanks ! What version is the faulty Sense that thinks your sister is your best mate ? hahah
Sorry to hear that... my stock ROM still works fine... I did not even update it yet - this one was right from the get-go
Well, I'm on Energy CHT now and IT'S A DIFFERENT PHONE !
WOW.
Thanks guys. You saved my phone and my money !
Now install chainfires 3D driver patch v2 on it and leocpuspeed v4 you'll be shocked.
Wooo Hoo ! This phone is ON FIRE now
Now we're talking !!
Thanks man ! Any more tips ? hehe
What a coincidence. I'm also having lots of problems with my TMobile UK Rom, same freezing, etc.
I have seen quite a few Roms that I'd be interested, but most of them don't mention whether they will work with a locked T-Mobile handset, and if they do, it only refers to TMobile US version.
Will any Rom work on a T-Mobile UK locked handset, or would I also have to flash a new radio. I have 2.07.50 at the moment.
Like I said, I've seen quite a few Roms that I like, but just concerned in case I flash a Rom that's not compatible.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

if you have a wifi router in your house get wifi remote access. It allows you to transfer files to and from the phone using a web interface over the wifi. It also allows you to edit the registry "remotely". Really handy little tool that.
Also have a look at omarket. some handy tools can be got from there but be careful not everything is Leo compatible.
Coreplayer is handy if you wanna watch tv shows or movies. just set the video mode to raw frambuffer if the picture looks scrambled. This one isn't free but is definitely worth paying for coz tcpmp (it's free cousin) isn't as good. I also use srs WOWHD with this to improve the sound. look for 1.5 V2.
The only more i can say is use a PIM backup tool regularly. something like MS myphone or PIMBackup. Saves some time if you don't have an exchange server to store you contacts, mail etc

My advice to you would be to stick to a rom that says it is tmous compatible. that way it will work on any leo but the phone will still be sim locked. so if you wanted to sim unlock it you would need to get an unlock code from TMOUK
