[Q] What is ROM? - HD2 General

Hey everyone,
I've bought my HD2 about a year ago and using it happily, but as I understand Im not using its full potential, so as a clueless person I want to ask you what the f is a custom ROM
You see, as Im using my phone Ive loaded a lot of stuff in it, like Cookies Home Tab, BsB tweaks, Comic Reader, Garmin, SlovEd, Java aplications, tons of games...And I of course contacts, calender notes, alarms and so on... What happens to programs and other things after ROM update.
My main question is; what happens when I load a new ROM to my HD2? Are there any risks? How much time would it take to update it?

Hardware: CPU: QUALCOMM(R) 8250B 1024MHz - RAM: 576 - Flash: 1024MB
Software:
OS:5.2.21892
Manila: 2.5.2.20121412.2 (I also dont know what this is)
ROM: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Radio: 2.10.50.26 (This one also seems to be important somehow)

PS: My phone was bought from US T-Mobile, I unlocked SIM lock to use it here...

you should be slaped for this question! it is an insult to everybody here!

We have an old saying: "Teach me a letter and I will be a slave for you"
And another: "It's not a shame not to know, not asking is"

rom is the os.
manila is the interface created by htc (you can use the same rom and not use manila - it will look old school wm.)
updating is easy.
it is completely restarting your phone - everything will need to be re-installed. people do it as it is a) custom, b) no bload, c) lots of good tweaks, d) faster.
check out the roms thread and just look around. you'll get a sense of the flavor of what people use. i used energy roms; they always rocked wm. stable, fast and easy to use.
now, if everything is fine and you are 100% happy i suggest not changing unless you have a strong desire. it is okay to just use what you have. i had custom roms as the original rom quit on me. never looked back.
cheers.

Custom ROM is basically the OS Windows Mobile 6.5 by other developers.
Now the architecture of the OS remains intact but developers like tweaking it a little to boost performance and replace stock applications with new ones that people need.
For instance in the default Tmobile Stock Windows Mobile
you can only have 3 quick links on the home screen
however I use Dutty's Latest ROM (use search on XDA) which provide me
4 quick links (tweak)
also his ROM has all the latest applications released by hTc which sometimes takes quite a long time for the stock OS to come with.

Ideas for my new ROM

Hi guys. I am in the process of doing research into making my own ROM. I would like to know if you have any requests or ideas for me to base my ROM on. I want to know if there are some features, apps or configuration that you would like to see that other ROMs may not have.
Anyway let me know here and i will try to include the most popular options.
I got one...
I L-O-V-E the Khanx Touch Navia.
HOWEVER, the only thing missing, in my opinion, is a calender tab that I can see my upcoming appointments. In the original M2D you can only see 1 app ahead.
I would like to see a ROM without M2D, but with Throttle Launcher. Not everybody likes Manilla.
Since the time I got my orbit I'm missing very simple ROM and I requested it many people:
I need just serial ROM with all the unnecessary stuff removed, such as microsoft bug report, touch cube etc, with optimization tweaks and without side software at all. I'd say lite version of the serial 6.1 ROM =)
All of us got their must-have software so just let people choose what they need.
All the ROMs existing now are a kinda clones, its have very similar functionality... The mistake of the most of rom-makers is that they are trying to provide all possible features together with their ROMs. They insert there manilla, opera, config tools and many more, and I guess it takes them a lot of time to have all this things work together. Then after some time this "extra" tools getting updated and you have to develop updated ROM and catch new bugs...
Actually, the closest software to my wishes was Bepe's software, but it's not updating anymore...
I am going to look into two versions.
Naked build
lightweight and simple.
only the essential apps (to be decided)
basic config/customisation tools
Skeleton build
bare bones
no extra apps
basic config/customisation tools.

I agree....I tried all the new ROM's and finally went back to pre 6.1 more memory, faster speed, reliable phone and most important - Clean customised installs and screens.
I wish I could get something similar to Khanx Lite and Panosha's butterfly ! I have no interest in Manila, 3d or whatever - just a naked build and my own apps - whatever needed- installed have over 50MB to play with and nearly 2+ days battery life -what more could i ask for?

i will check them out. sounds like a good place to start
Ideal ROM for me:
1. Fast and stable build (probably official HTC build is better than some leaked build)
2. Minimum software - no cube, no customer feebback, no opera, no manila, no windows live and live messenger etc.
3. Performance tweaks included
4. Video call support (I mention this since recently many chefs drop this functionality from their ROMs)
5. Maximum free RAM
How about a kind of tracker app?
I am planning to cook a ROM for me including this app:

Also remove some apps to make the system faster.
In my case, I dont need the audio booster, audio manager, calculator and getting started.

That won't help you at all Luciano. The program works by sending the location to another phone by sms. That phone number has to be cooked in the ROM, else it would be gone upon hard reset. So this kind of applications only works when you cook your own personal ROM.

I agree with the "Skeleton build".
This is a numbers game - quite a few posts have wished for such a skeleton ROM, but many more seem to like all the doo-dads and frippery being cooked into the ROM's on offer. Since most chefs quite rightly wish for donations, they choose the doo-dad route.
The basic reasons I dislike the doo-dads is that I have no use for most of them (I use the device as a mini-computer as much as a phone), they consume flash memory and RAM and you cannot update them without flashing a new ROM.
M'Amine's kitchen and one of his new ROM's is the place to start, I suggest. He has not protected his ROM's so we can completely dis-assemble them, remove the doo-dads and re-cook.
I'm slowly wending my way through this process now. The basic difficulty is figuring out all of the folders, files and Registry references associated with those doo-dads I want to remove.
working on this ROM has been pushed back in the queue a fair bit. We are currently getting our house up for sale so we can move for our kids school next year and my wife's new job. There are a few things i'd like to look at to make testing the ROMs a bit easier and quicker (ie an emulator or similar) but i really haven't had the time to even google it.
Hi, I agree with all previous comments. In my case I like to build my own UI with WAD so I do not like m2d/manila/htc roms. They look all the same to me and I still end using additional software for photos, music and even contacts
I am very happy with the rom I am using: swtos light rom (see my signature).
The only problem is swtos is not anymore with a touch so I do not expect any updates to new builds. I would say I have a 0 bugs rom, with 160 mb for programs and circa 50 mb free ram. I do not plan to go back to wm 6.1 official or to try other roms if I do not have relevant new features over this one in terms of performance.
Since swtos is not cooking polaris anymore he may be willing to share the kitchen. You can see in the thread that people is happy with this rom and missing swtos new work.
I have a couple of suggestions:
- naked roms are so naked that are only good for very advanced users. light roms most of the times already include config tools, ui and basic programs. I think a really naked but pre-configured rom would be great.
- I would suggest to explore radio compatibility. It seems to be a nightmare quite often and many people do not want to flash the phone many times.
- I suggest to concentrate on performance, scrolling and Ram recovery and exploit current hardware as it is rather than bringing it to the limit (eg. 3d drivers)
Bepes rom I think is much older than swtos so even if it is well known for its stability, I would not use it as the starting point.
Good luck !
I'm attempting to build an ultra-clean ROM from one of the public releases recently.
I tried one from c_shekhar but it contained some very confusing (to me) entries on Language and SYS versions.
Trying one of M'Amine's next

sorry mate, not sure how i missed your post when giving an update.
I am the same as you with how i use my phone, it is more like an organiser and computer that just happens to have a phone in it. I use mine for Geocaching, tomtom, email, twitter, photos, brain training games..... and i occasionally get a phone call or SMS or two.
Do-dads are great fun to try out, but the novelty wears out over time, and they just suck up resources and slow other apps down and hurt stability.
At the moment i am trying out the more popular lite ROMS to see what they do and how they perform so i can get a feel of to expect from mine.

Having a couple of questions about the HD2 - also considering flashing!

Hi there.
I have owned the HD2 for about a month. I find it difficult to say for sure whether I like it or not - it diffently has a lot of both pros and cons. But since I am not looking to give a review of the device I just have a few pressing questions that I have not been able to find the answer to while doing alot of reading in these greats forums.
1. I have problems with both stability and lag. Could a possible ROM switch to say "energy (the newest version)" fix that?
2. Are the custom ROMS considered better than the stock ones - or is it mainly just because it is fun to be able to completely mess around with your phone?
3. If I choose to switch to energy's latest ROM is there some way for me to get my Danish T9 dictonary to work on the ROM - I have not been able to find the answer to that simple question while reading through those almost terrifyingly many pages contained in the thread for the energy ROM!!!! Found something about Chinese or Korean input... not helpful!
4. A side question: Is there a way to disable the function in HTC''s sms program that makes it able to input a different letter than the one pressed? Say you I have have pressed "e" but accidently released it on "r" making it type "r" instead of "e" - annoying the hell out of me.
Right now I am using my HD2 together with SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.4 - the change of interface alone has seemed to reduce lag - but of course the Mobile Shell is not as "connected" as HTC's Sense interface, and I miss my music player and twitter integration :/
Hope you are not going to get a stroke or brain bleed because I did not RTFM enough
Thank you for your time reading this
From my experience with cooked ROMs, it seems like some are just as stable if not more so than stock ROMs whereas others can have more problems... You'll just have to try a few and see which one you like.
Cooked ROMs are nearly always faster than stock and they usually have much more up to date versions of the various system components and programs.
The main reason I decided to flash a cooked ROM was to get the updated TMOUS camera drivers which fixes the overexposed effect that made the LED flash more or less useless. I'm using Dutty's V6 Hybrid at the moment and it uses a different bluetooth stack. I can't tell you why but it does make music sound better (when using a bluetooth headset obviously) and it's much faster than my old 1.44 stock ROM...
I hope those examples show why cooked ROMs can be so amazing. Just be careful not to flash a stock ROM with the latest SPL from your microSD card or you'll be stuck with it...
I prefer tweaking the default rom. This is not to say that the cooks don't do a good job i just prefer not to get too extreme with the custimization. I do tweak the registry and i have installed a different spl and updated the radio. It's also been overclocked and so far i'm very happy with it (at the end of week 2 of ownership). The tweaks and the overclock combined with the 3D gfx driver that you can get from here have solved the lag and speed issues with all programs except for the messaging application.
I've also installed several applications including SRS WoW HD, a WM 6.1 style task manager, WIFI remote access and phm regedit. I've also updated the facebook application and dropped a copy of office mobile 2010 on.
At the end of the day the choice is yours. My phone is as stable as a rock right now and never crashes although i must say it wasn't but i found, like most people, that the problems were caused by a particular program. In my case it was a slightly dodgey remote desktop client that it turns out i didn't need anyway. It's also feels as responsive as my very expensive desktop pc (specs below).
The issue you mention with text messaging could be solved by decreasing the sensitivity of the touch interface or (and this is what i do) rotate the phone to landscape mode and type like that. It makes the keyboard wider and a bit easier to use. You could also get a foldable bluetooth keyboard.
What route you take is entirely your choice so if you think a custom rom is the right route to take go for it. There are some many out there your not going to be short of choice so it may be worth exploring more than just energy's roms.
Thank you very much for your answers
Well, I predict that if choose to flash some custom ROM, that i will spending alot of time trying out the different ROMs of the different chefs, but then again, i do not feel completely satisfied with the way my device is running now.
I have actually recently flashed back with a stock ROM... Tried to install some different radios so that I would get better reception, but I was no different. Plus i didn't think flashing radios was as "dangerous" as flashing ROMs How can i check if my device has been "locked"?
I also think that I have narrowed down the problem with the lag (not the instability) to when the facebook integration of my contact is downloading new info (every 2 hours right?), lags horribly for about one minute throughout the whole menu, actually, every time it accesses the internet to either update tweeter, face or check for email, it lags!
I am hoping these things can be overcome by flashing a new ROM, if that is even possible for me now :S
If you have reinstalled a stock rom you will probably need to install an unlocked spl again. To do this you'll need to get a copy of hspl or hspl2 (look in the rom development board). flashing the radio is less danagerous to a certain extent but i advise you have look for customruu there is a version that is configured not to wipe the device after install. I would post a link but i'm out and about and all my resources are on my desktop.
The lag you experience with the facebook/twitter integration i haven't experienced as i don't use it but i do have an exchange server that is configured with direct push and i don't have any lag with that. It may be worth you looking into the 2 tweaks sticky threads and implementing some of them. I would also suggest that you have a look for the 3D gfx driver and netrippers LCS which will allow you to disable the processors autoscaling. You may find this illiminates the lag. It certainly did the trick for me.
Unless you use a ROM with the TMOUS camera drivers you might as well not have a flash for taking pictures in dark settings. I spent quite some time just playing around with my old stock ROM too but in the end I gave in because of this issue...
Flashing from the microSD is the safest way to flash anything just make sure that you're battery's fully charged (to be on the safe side) and it's not a stock ROM with an SPL included which would overwrite your HSPL.
Here is a question based on your last comment, Neo, and i'm only asking because i noticed an image was over powered by the flash at around a metre distance. is it possbile to install the tmous camera driver on a stock rom and if so where do i find it?
I found a thread with a link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5866852&postcount=13) but it fails to install on my stock 1.66 rom and looking at the thread many other too. Although that thread reveals - consistant with neo's comment - that the driver is included in many cooked roms based on the tmous 2.10 (and above) rom
Okay guys. Thanks for the tips. I guess I will have to install HSPL again and this time try to flash Energy's ROM. Don't know if it has the new camera drivers, or if it has those nice bluetooth drivers (I have noticed the voice quality is not very good on my bluetooth headset).
3D GFX and that CPU program, check!
Guess I will also try that "Slide to Unlock", saw it in a youtube demo and it had many more features than i originally thought... nice!!!
So if I understand this right, flashing a stock ROM with the stock SPL does not remove the ability to install HSPL again? But it is just annoying having to install HSPL all over ?

Last questions before jumping :)

I have an english o2 HD2.
So the ROM is too old to be used. So I need to install a new ROM with a new Radio
My plan is to use
ChuckyROM GTX + CHT 1.8.5 - 23128 ~ 2.10.1
Radio 2.12
question 1 : at this stage my HD2 is no more under warranty, correct?
question 2: I can still use it as a "normal" HD2, correct?
I dont want to start the "best build" war but I am looking for in order:
Phone (I am still using it for calling, incredible)
Microsoft Exchange push email
fast Internet (wifi + 3/4g)
GPS
SMS
Apps
the rest would be nice but not important
Camera
MMS
BT
I tried to look at the different builds but it seems difficult for a newbie to compare/find the correct one for him (NOT THE BEST, just the one for me)
Also when everything is done (and hopefully work) I can still use either WM or Android.
Question 3: if both are sync with my exchanger server, I can have email/contact etc on both OS?
Question 4: If I read correctly, SMS are not shared between OS?
thanks a lot

[APP] WiMoSpeed: [2010-12-18] V1.01

Please use the new thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=887469.
CAUTION !!!
- USE THIS TOOL AT YOUR OWN RISK !!
- Overclocking your cpu may damage your device.
- Before autostarting the app be sure that your device will not hang.
- backup is always recommended !!​DESCRIPTION :
WiMoSpeed lets you change the CPU-speed. In opposite to other tools, even to the predecessor OverClockTool (OCT), it manipulates the values WM uses for clock control. So it works reliable on battery and AC without any scripting or active components.​USAGE :
- Download and install the CAB
- Start WiMoSpeed.exe. If it reports that it cannot identify your ROM: post here
- Select Speed
- Set Speed
- If desired create link (in installation directory) with actual settings
- Exit WiMoSpeed.exe​TECHNIQUE
Basically WiMoSpeed is hardware-independent, because it lets WM change clock speed. But I couldn't get WM to switch the clock reliable on request so WiMoSpeed had to switch the clock registers itself on setting a new speed.
Therefore WiMoSpeed depends on CPU-hardware, RADIO- and OS-ROM.
Raising or lowering cpu speed didn't change battery drain or device temperature noticeable. So there isn't dynamic clocking in WiMoSpeed, but WM is still controlling and changing cpu-speed on battery.​LIMITATIONS
WiMoSpeed supports Qualcomm MSM7200 (and compatible) and is limited to Rhodium and RhodiumW ROMs by now.
I took all shipped roms I could get and included the information into WiMoSpeed.
!!! If WiMoSpeed could not identify your ROM please post here what part of your ROM WiMoSpeed couldn't identify (OEMXIP and / or RADIO-ROM) and include a download-link of your ROM (OS, RADIO) !!! Thank you.
I will include Topaz ROMs next.​thanks to
-all donators for the support
-eboelzner for Sense UI SDK
-dmvandijk for the icon
-the internet ​Please do not mirror WiMoSpeed !

I know OCT can be used with Topaz, because it has the same CPU as the Rhodium, but WiMoSpeed 1.00 is not recognizing the ROM my Topaz is using: Standard Energy (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=562942).
More details at the signature.
Must add that WiMoSpeed is a great project! Best wishes for it.
Just installed it on my Tilt2. I was able to get to 768 MHz (up from 748 MHz I reached with OCT 1.5). Beyond 768 MHz it froze immediately. I will continue testing and post here any issues.
Looks great so far, and thank you for your hard work!
UPDATE: Stepping down to 748 MHz as Sense just froze while switching from the People tab to Home, when using 768 MHz.
Great app iwfratz!!
Downloaded and installed on my Tilt 2 running "Energy.RHODIUM.28244.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Nov.13". I am able to over clock to 787.2 MHz (where I could only get 768.0 with OCT). Running good so far; have not had any bad side effects yet (scrolling through Sense tabs; made phone call; started web browser; read e-mail).
Looks to be a WINNIER!!

it doesnt work on my tp2 verizon, running maxsense rom. any suggestions ?
WiMoSpeed rocks!
Thanks for all your hard work, iwfratz. You rocked the house with OCT v1.5, and now you follow up with your magnum opus!
This works very well on my Stock VzW 6.5 rom. I was able to step it up a notch or 2 in speed from my OCT v1.5 settings. I am standing pat at 748.8 for now, mainly because I don't want to get too greedy and SOD it all up!

Just tried OCT for the first time a few days ago - saw slight but noticable speed improvement with it. Looking forward to trying this out - looks like it's even better!
Hi iwfratz;
Glad to see you are still working on this!
Did you ever find out why OCT1.5 would not remove properly? I would prefer to remove it "correctly" rather than use a 3rd party tool or go digging around the registry for leftover pieces.
Thanks!
Thanks
Tested On T-Mobile Touch Pro 2 Rhodium at 748.8mhz no defects. Custom energy rom by NRGZ Dec 11 cookies 2.0 sencity 21916 build. As with Oct 1.5 i do have minor issues, but this one works perfect. Thanks

Builds with start menu at the bottom arent as stable as the start menu at the top, in some cases things wont work the same as others with Energy 21916 build (Which I use 21916) which in my case works fine. That could be one reason but there could be more. Try switching builds and see what happens.
awesome
Works great on my stock sprint 6.5.
moved up to 748 from 729 using oct 1.5
everything is buttery smooth and stable so far.
nicely done.
Hey many thanks for the new update. However, I used to switch between WinMo and Android quite often and, as you probably know, you need to turn off overclocking to switch.
So I was wondering if there is a quick way or a shortcut to turn the overclocking off when need be? I've tried making a shortcut to switch to 518mhz before attempting android, but that doesn't work. I'd hate to have to switch back to the old version (oct 1.5) as I really like this new one. But unfortunately, this issue is a deal breaker for me

CleanEX RV Ultra v1.01 WM 6.5
Ultra is a Special build, and is simply the fastest WinMo ROM there is. If your after ultimate speed, this is the one for you!
Please Note however, that Cookie Home Tab greater than 1.7.1 will break Sense and will not function, at all. Therefore CHT 1.7.1 and CHTE 1.7.1 are preinstalled. Some Manila visual modifications will not work, but try them for yourself. If Sense is broken, uninstall the mod and reboot the phone. After flash, enable ClearType for a better font.
All standard Manila Tabs - Home, People, Messages, Mail, Internet, Stocks, Footprints, Photos, Music, Weather and Settings.

------ Got Bad Battery life in android? I can help!! ------​
after being given the idea by JW, i have done extensive testing with various radios using current widget. I can confirm that the worst radio you can have for battery life in android, by far, is 2.15.xx and 2.14.xx
With radio 2.10.50.28_2 or 2.08.50.05 i am getting a constant 6/7 mA in standby, even with wifi still active and around 100mA less useage when phone on and being used!
you can download them here:
2.08.50.05 - is here
2.10.50.28_2 - is here
flash them in bootloader, boot to WM (you may need to reset your date and time - flashing radios sometims changes it, then boot to android and enjoy!
If you are looking for an older version than the above, please browse the root of our FTP available here http://cleanex.htcfanboys.com/
Credits and Thanks

Dear Gavin, thank you.
You are the man
and as mynamesteve said, Christmas has come early
Thanx .... giving it a try ..... Greatly appreciated ......
Just booted up after flash. Amazing speed, everything seems working 101%, probably the best ROM ever made for the HD2. Will test further and report if any issues found.
Still running ancient Radio 2.08.50.08_2, should I update?... to wich one?... (yes, battery life sucks with this one but it always has and I doubt any radio will improve it much...) Does it need to be a Radio ending in xxxxx_2 or it doesnt matter? Any feedback on newer Radios or what's the best one?
Gavin... U know it Simply perfect!
Cheers guys! Keep the feedback coming, and let me know of any issues you may encounter!

For Ultra, the LeftSoftKey registry (ie HKLM/Software/HTC/manila/HomeLSKPath) didnt work anymore. This did not happen on previous Ultra. I was trying to map it to "\windows\taskmgr.exe"
Welcome back Gavin! We missed u!! Wish your GF for a quick recovery!!
