Custom ROMS 6.5.x - HD2 General

Not complaining, just trying to understand the logic.
We all like to have the latest systems/builds right???
So why are most of the custom ROM builders using 23569 when it hasn't been updated in months and is pretty much a dead SYS???
Is there something wrong with the 231xx series that I don't know about? I switched my builds over to 231xx on my tp2 custom ROMs when 23569 didn't get any updates for a few weeks. My 231xx series custom ROM was very stable and fast, played nice with the hd mini lockscreen and the newest dialers.
So, if you build custom ROMs and you are using 23569, why???

rom based off new 3.5

anyone know if anyone has a rom with wm 6.1 based off of htc 3.35 that way nothing is lost. or if it could be in the works? thanks
dcd has one, its awesome only thing im trying to figure out is in the messaging linking my hotmail acct, its not working right
the reason i asked is i only found the information that they have the features of the 3.35 official rom but were hacks that were done before the official rom came out. which is better and has more features? anyone have the pros and cons?

DCDs 3.x roms and kitchen are based on the 3.35 rom and radio (not the beta 3.16/3.27 rom) and they also have WM6.1

Windows Mobile 6.5 & TouchFlo 3D 2.6

When the TD2 gets the windows mobile 6.5 free update will the new TouchFlo be included? Im just wondering if im going to have to update both at different times or will TF3D 2.6 come bundled with WM6.5?
Thanks
I think it will come with 6.5.
i think it probably will come together but i'm hoping not, i want 6.5but i don't want the new touch flo 'cause personally i think it's not as sleek looking as what we've got now
idk i think the colour will be a nice addition to windows mobile 6.5 and will show off the beautiful screen on the TD2
eagerly anticipating this
WinMo 6.5 for Topaz
Hi Forumers,
Can someone guide me to where can I download a ROM for TOPAZ with WinMO 6.5?; Can't wait October to experience WinMo 6.5
Personally I hope they release 6.5 with Manila 2.5 (or whatever the latest one is)
6.5

Hi, I got my Diamond2 3 days ago, flashed about 5 ROMS so far, and Dutty's seems to be the fastest and most stable IMHO
September 19, 2009 05:42 AM Duttys Topaz WM6.5 R2
http://htcpedia.com/soft/htc-topaz-rom.html
This one runs on 23016 build of wm 6.5 and Manilla 2.1
September 18, 2009 02:52 AM Duttys Topaz WM6.5 Leo R1
http://htcpedia.com/soft/htc-topaz-rom.html
This also runs on 23016 build of wm 6.5 BUT Manilla 2.6 Leo skin (VERY COOL INDEED)
I'm currently using WM6.5 R2 of Dutty, cause the Leo with Manilla 2.6 is very slightly sluggish, but very useable. Once you've hard-SPL'd, i'ts very easy to flash a new ROM, so feel free to try both
I recommend udk's rom.
By the way i think TD3D v2.1 will come with the new official 6.5 rom. Not 2.6.

That's my understanding as well.
Isn't the manilla 2.5/2.6 pegged for the new LEO handset?

I hope so... I think it's ugly. How will I get my wallpaper on my home screen the with way they plan to clutter it up?
As has been stated on several forum posts regarding Manilla versions, 2.6 will not run on the Topaz; It is a new build for a different chipset, and is functionally no different to Manilla 2.5
2.5 is available on many ROMs in the Topaz ROMs forum, but I believe that these are rips from devices which already have 2.5 available.
As an opinion, I found 2.5 to be very slow in the custom ROMs I tried. Manilla 2.1 looks almost identical (you can get skins to add colourful icons, if you like that sort of thing) and 2.5 added no additional functionality which I needed.
Dutty's rom is the best i tried...
I tried dutty's rom but i had a problem with iGO. It runs in 640x480 area and another issue it not supports video calls.
Can some one tell what is the new feature of TouchFlo 3D 2.6 ?
Or any URL/Link where I can see the new feature and download if any for update?
Thanks.
I have installed udk's ROM with WM6.5 and Manila 2.5. It runs very smoothly and fast, and it seems quite stable up to now. I haven't checked other WM6.5 Leo ROMs, so I cannot know how udk's compares with them; what I do know, is udk has produced a very good ROM.
For me, there is no question going back to WM6.1 or Manila 2.1. The new combined Windows + TF3D interface is very cool and functional...

I was just about to try udk's rom. So i have a question to you. Have you installed the suggested radio for the rom? I'm still using the original radio. Should i install?
My radio version was already 4.48.25.13, and after installing the ROM it stayed that way. Reception is fine.
Yes i installed the suggested radio. Now its perfect. I had an 3G issue but its solved also. Thanks for the recommendation.

The most stable wm6.5 rom with htc sense 2.5

I'm currently using "Miri WM 6.5 21885 V 33.0" ROM and it works great.
However, i would like to move on to a ROM with htc sense 2.5 cause
i really like the new interface.
I've flashed some htc sense v2.5 ROMS but nothing came close in terms
of speed to the manila v2.1.
Can anyone tell me what is the fastest manila v2.5 ROM out there?

Unfortunately manila 2.5 roms are generally slower than manila 2.1 roms due to htc sense (manila 2.5) not meant for HD (meant for HD2).
As for which is fastest, this is really down to trial & error, i.e. you trying out a few and finding this out yourself. Everyone will generally have different opinions on this or loyalties to certain rom chefs so you'll get different answers from different people.

WM 6.5.3 or better without Sense built in?

Hi,
Does anyone have a ROM of Windows Mobile that would run on the HD2.
One without all the HTC gubbins? Almost a stock ROM of WM I guess?
Or are there tweaked WM ROMs for speed out there, and what is the latest? I thought 6.5.3 was but notice some cooked ROMs include 6.5.5?
Thanks.
Look at my barebone or lite ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606932
Miri also has a lite WM6.5.X ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614006
Build 23518 is WM6.5.5 and build 28205/28014 are WM6.5.3. Not much difference, 6.5.5 seems a bit faster and has threaded email, but is also often less stable. Buid 28014 is the most stable WM6.5.X build so far.
Whats the difference between barebone and lite.
You say barebone has htc messaging and lite doesn't? I thought it would be the other way around?
Oh... I actually mean HTC enhancements and it mentioned about a canvas which I don't really understand.
I'm new to WinMo and the HD2!
Barebone is without the HTC phone canvas (the dialer skin). Both have no HTC Messaging.
You need to try a few ROMs to see what you like best.

[REQ] ROM w/ Original version of Sense from 1.43 ROM

Hey guys - I know I am not the only one that has NEVER had the same level of performance from the various custom ROMs as I got from the very first 1.43 version of the European/Asian version of the HD2. Unfortunately, the T-Mobile USA version of the HW is incompatible with that ROM... Since it seems to just be the HTC Sense that has the problems, does anyone know of a ROM with the original Sense running on one of the more recent builds of WinMo? (Something running on 6.5.x would of course be ideal.)
Wow - over 100 views and no takers? Can anyone at least explain why this cannot be done?
