Can someone write a proper tutorial on how to cook roms? I believe that if we were all proficient at cooking roms, it would only be a matter of time before the perfect rom was published. Im using Asergs rom...nice but can be better. Until then Ill keep trying.
the method to cook roms is the same as the hermes and wizard which there are already tutorials present. for further advice leave a post in this thread and im sure someone can help you with your problems

ps: i do a little rom cooking on the side when I have free time and the perfect rom won't happen over night....**** to even make a stable rom could take you months of hard work as well as trial and error. it takes alot of work...gained new respect for rom cookers who constantly update like Tom for example who releases updates for more than one phone as well * don't know how you do it buddy*

dude, simply dont panic ! i faced some thing similar but now i feel like a pro when it comes to flashing new ROMs. This forum is Great !
Well..ok let me come to the point, that is make sure u have HSPL.(Read the thread in Rom Development forum). Now simply connet ur device to ur comp/laptop and use active sync. make sure ur device is set on active sync. Now simply have ur New ROm ready to flash/install on ur device by doubble clicking the RRU_signed.exe(something of this sort, cooks keep it any name they wish to but its an .exe file for sure be it any name.) and follow the on screen instructions that u get. and there u go ! have ur device back again with ROM of choice.
Important Info:
1] u can download any ROm of ur choice from the rom development forum here on xda.
2] make sure u hard reset ur device after flashing the new rom.
3] Dont forget to backup ur data (for noobs.)
4] Go through the Rom Development forum for some great tutorials and guidance.
Hope this helps. n Congo for ur new device !
Good luck !

Well you got most of that right. But it is very important that new users understand that if you flash from a factory ship ROM such as 1.48 or 1.66 and you try to flash one of the newer cooked ROM's based on 2.07 or above Base it will freeze at the HTC screen if you don't upgrade the Radio first. 2.07 and above need the TMOUS radio 2.07.50 or 2.08.50.08.02 etc or it will not work.
Just a suggestion, and this is not directed at anyone here....
I wish there were some way to make it a "rule" that posters not assign their issue directly to any particular ROM, since 99.999% of the time, it is not the fault of the ROM, but the user him/herself.
Postings may give users a bad impression of a particular ROM, or the flashing process in general, when in reality, it is an easy process once it is understood.
I'm running OzROM, for example, and I never had any issues with it, because I understood these things by reading extensively beforehand....and trying.
I never assumed that any of my previous difficulties were the fault of any particular ROM, but rather something that I was not doing correctly. I have found that this is invariably the case, and I just do not want any Chef to get a bad rap because of user error, or for someone to think that flashing a cooked ROM will destroy their phone, or something like that.
Just my 2 cents. Hope we can address this as a community somehow.

I agree that comments should be kept in the ROM thread. But considering this was the guys first post, well you know. This happens all the time.
Hi Frinds my phone model num is t3320
i want to know that
all touch2 rom is compertabel for my device???????????
if not then how i update my phone rom??????????????/
Difference is that your phone does not have 3G or GPS. No reason why custom Rom's should not work.
So to flash a new Rom back-up your current Rom (see specific thread), apply hard SPL and select the Rom you like.....
Have fun.
Actually, one of the best ROMs I found here is based on your model. This one : New [ROM] [6.5.3_23541_WWE_Radio_3.53.25.20], uploaded by TangerineTractor. It's awesome and I recommend it to you. I'm using it now and it has only minor bugs that you/I can live with and although my model is T3333 after I flashed this ROM, my device says T3320 but everything works well. Try it!
You need to Hard SPL before you can install new ROM
But... there is no Hard SPL for T3320 until now
I already try T3333 hard SPL from Jockey on my T3320... but it not work!

and there is no possibility in near future because i am coordinating with Jockywilson for the HSPL from last 10 DAys and finally failed to use HSPL
HSPL
But the HSPL has worked for me .... well I know its funny but did at the very first go. For my system config details - visit jockey's thread.

Hello All,
As for Addicted2Xda, the HSPL worked for my device (T3320) too & that too in first go.
I dont know much about these things & this is the first device that I own. I verified the procedure & my device in the tri-color screen reads 1.28.Hard on the LHS side. So i believe that HSPL has worked. The only way to confirm that this works is to load a custom ROM(which i am ready to load) but before that I would like to
1. Backup my current ROM (i.e. the original one from HTC so that in event of any issue, i can claim warranty)
2. In case the custom ROM doesnt flash or work, I can load the original one.
Now I, dont know the procedure, requirements, pre-req on how to do it & hence I would like your expert help in this matter. I am ready to do it, its just that i dont know how to do it & I would like to learn.
So is it possible, for someone to post the stepwise procedure to
1. Backup the current ROM.
2. Load the custom ROM.
For our device Model T3320. I also have a reason to specify "our device Model T3320" in every request simply becaue I, have read most of the thread there & found out that there is much misleading information about this device T3320 here. For e.g. in some threads you find that the HSPL is not working in some you find that it works & other things.
My aim (request or what ever you call it) in humble manner, is to make it easy for guys like me (who are new / dumb at this) to use this beautiful forum, in much better manner.
It is possible that, my aim has already been achieved & I am doing something wrong (probably since I have not read all the rules), in which case I am due for a butt-whipping from all the senior members, which i am ready to take, provided, it becomes easy for guys like me to use this forum.
Long post, you all can thrash me for it & i would gladly take the heat, but please consider my reqeust.
Regards,
H.D
Great job HD.... i am also sailing in the same ship with you. T3320 is my first Windows mobile, there are a lot of doubts and confusions with the device.
Most of the terms used in this site are complete jargons to me, it would be great if someone comes forward to enlighten newbies like us.
If you have Hard SPLed your phone, just make sure that your boot loader shows 1.28.Hard (meaning you have successfully HSPLed your device). Luckily you do not need to backup your original ROM as it is already available in the Roll up thread . WWE Asia is your ROM (if you are an Asian that is ).
if your HSPL shows as 1.28.Hard, you can flash any custom ROM you feel like. Just give a few of them a shot, you are bound to like one of them .
Once I flashed my ROM with a custom ROM, never bothered to revert to the Original crap, be it my Vox, my Gene or my Mega.
BTW if you are really interested to know the methods / jargons (well some of them), just pm me and I will be glad to help you - but please note that I have a real job, so it will take some time .

Once you hardspl your device, your warranty is void.. unless you find a way to put the original spl back on your device... whether you flash a custom ROM or not is immaterial.
But please note that it is my personal opinion, but:
1. I have a Vox for nearly 4 years now... never needed to send it to service centre... only had to change the battery once... that too last year.
2. I had a Gene for more than 1.5 years and sold it to a friend of mine (who used it for 6 months till he lost it)... without a glitch.
3. Using my touch2, flashed it within 1 month without caring for the world (BTW I am not a millionaire... if I was, I would go for TP2 ).
If you want to try new stuff... you have to take the risk.
Best of luck in enjoying your Touch2 right now... or waiting for the warranty to get over
Hey.. Please, can I anyone Help me out and tell me, is there any way flashing ROM through Memory Card.. I have read somewhere on XDA..
I had HTC GENE(P3400i), And I flashed that many times.. But now I'm using HTC Touch2 (T3320 Special Version).. And I want to flash this too..
My Problem is.. Someone told me that after flashing my Touch2 I won't be able to play FM Radio.. Is it TRUE.?
And Please tell me the Procedure by which I can safely Flash my ROM..
First, make HSPL to hack the phone, second choose a ROM from all of the roms in this section, you can put it via data cabel.

I never knew my model was 3320, I used jockey's HSPL, been using custom ROMS from here, all works fine
Hello All,
Something strange is happening with my Acer S200.
For now two times.
First time I was writing something in Windows mobile and phone reset by himself.
Second time I was writing SMS and this happens again.
What can be a possible problem?
Currently I am running Rafyvitto_Acer_s200_LEO_21883_BlacK_NeO_v.3.0.
Thank you.
zoran974
SMS reset
I too had this problem with most of Rafyvitto's ROMS, and it was the reason I eventually had to return to the stock ROM. I'm following the ROM thread pretty closely, however, and I may try Arto's Rom if I feel the overwhelming need for Sense again.

Hello,
I am new with those things and I need help.
After all experiments with all various ROM's and everything I decide to install in my S200 all new original clean system like you.
Can you please explain to me how to do that?
One more question.
If I am updating ROM, I am changing Windows or no?
Regards,
Zoran
Hi Zoran--
If I understand you correctly you wish to install a new factory ROM---
You can find the latest ROMs here--just choose the correct language file.
Should you need to change languages make sure to change the laguage on your phone first as thus:
Just use your favorite registry editor and go to HKLM\ControlPanel\ACER\SystemInfo\Software
You'll find two keys: ExtROMVer and Language
Change the language occurance on these two keys to match your desired ROM
The Update package comes with instructions on installation for you to follow.
As always be mindful that playing with ROMs can brick your device if not done properly
Best of luck
Stoma
Thank you. All good now. Original official ROM is working fine.

After lots of time of trying cook rom, I decide to come back to original rom.
- No sense, no waste RAM
- No cook, no wate TIME.
Stop please.
your not have to flash cooked roms
it´s your own decision
you can switch back to default rom anytime you want
when you don´t like them be quiet and stop talkin´sh*T
i think there are a lot of people who are very happy that they can use cooked rom and also i think that we can thank our developers that they make it possible to flash roms
i think we all can decide what kind of rom we want
This tread has no meaning what so ever.
