Official or DCD 3.2.0 ROM

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....

Looking for a new rom

Hello all. I am new to this again. I am in the US Army and have been gone a while. I have a Sprint touch diamond and upgraded my rom to the 2.0 version. I am realy interested in an even better rom, possibly with the wm 6.5 that I saw on youtube. Can anyone point me to the correct ROM for my sprint phone? And is there a tutorial for this somewhere? The HTC download was pretty easy, are they all like that? Thanks.
Mainly all of the roms here are for gsm... Here's a similar thread, follow it
thank you...

Update my HTC Touch Software

Hi,
I have an HTC Touch P3452, Can anybody please let me know how to update my windows software in it. Currently my ROM is 2.20.720.2B WWE. My question is is there any updated version for this ROM, if Yes, then how to update it and to which version should I update it.........
Just an information - I am very good with mobiles, so a step by step process will help me a lot.
Thanks in advance
Your best bet is to look into the rom section, as all the information you need is in there.
For the updated rom for your current stock rom, you could look at your carriers website to see if they released one.
I'd suggest custom roms - I use onyx on my elves and it runs really well

wm 6.5.3

hi
I searched wm site, but couldn't find any information how to update hd2 wm6.5 to 6.5.3.
I don't want to flash any custom rom. Prefer to stay with official rom.
Any solutions?
there is only one solution, cooked rom.
@OP: Are you in the US and on T-Mobile?
in Turkey. unlocked.
The T-Mobile website has this file available for download for free, but you have to be a T-Mobile subscriber. The download asks for your IMEI number as well, so I'm not sure if this makes a difference. I suppose I could try to zip up the rom installer for you and upload somewhere, but I don't know what kinds of issues you'd run into, installing a US based rom on your device. You may just want to wait until a version is released in your locale.
Let me know your thoughts and I'll figure something out with you.
can anybody advice if that will cause any problem for making T-mobile update to a non-Tmobile device?
yes you can run tmous rom on regular hd2.
no, there is not a 6.5.3 official rom. if that is the implication two posts up, it is incorrect.
I have found on my experience that cooked ROMĀ“s from great Chefs at XDA are always much better than stock ones, sai that and if you want to try them, read the sticky posts on ROM section.
If you want to go back again to stock you can do it with no problem.
Good luck,
I think Windows Mobile kinda scrapped the project its finish but seems like carriers don't care about updating their devices since not much change. That I know the only device running 6.5.3 its the sony ericsson Aspen and some motorola rugged phone for sprint.

[Q] How to install a Froyo Rom?

Hi there,
I was just wondering how to install a Froyo Rom (With A2SD Support, and 2.1 Android Version). I was wondering about this because they're saying something about "Radio Versions" and I have absolutely no idea what that means. Is it to connect to your mobile carrier? Mine's Virgin Mobile Canada, does it make a difference? I really need to know, because I can't take my chances with this phone. How do I know what radio versions I need for the Rom? Do I install it like a normal Rom? I also want one that has root access. Does that make a difference? Thanks for the help because I'm really confused at the moment. Thanks.
PS: I've searched everywhere for a 2.1 Froyo Rom but still can't find one, can someone please give me the link? The reason I don't want 2.2 is because the last time I used a 2.2 Froyo Rom I couldn't get reception to my carrier (Virgin Mobile), and I know I did something wrong, so I'm asking for advice now. Thanks.

Hi, firstly, please read as much as you can before posting
Now, the reason you can't find 2.1 Froyo is because there is no such ROM. Froyo is a codename for Android 2.2 ROMs, just as 2.1 ROMs have codename Eclair etc...
So if you want Froyo, you want 2.2.
As I have told you in the other thread, read stickies in Development. To get root access, you have to root first - not sure if you have done that, but anyway, read some howtos on rooting any other techniques and you will find out how to fllash a ROM.
Abot the Bell canada thing, I think you are on WCDMA there,which means you have to have a Radio for that - that's what the fuzz is about(about different versions of radios and their receptions). But I'm not sure if you even need a special radio, you'll have to find out in development.
Here are STICKIES
Good luck!
