I would like to have your opinion: which cooked ROM is the cleanest and lightest ROM without all those "slowing" HTC customizations?
Or if this is not possible, which ROM has the least f those HTC embedded apps?
My ideal ROM is that one which has succesfull get rid of Manila, HTC messaging and all the other staff, except one: Compass.
At the moment I am satisfied with Freyberry Barebone: but up to now I cannot get rid of HTC Contacts, (I cannot re-enable the default MS Outlook Contact)
Thanks and waiting
Saulo
I understand that some of HTC customizations cannot be removed, but I wish to find a ROM which has the least of them.
Thanks and waiting.

You can make it easily if u want Microsoft Phone (WM) OS only for ur device. But ur device will become weird. High tech mobile hardware with errrr looking
I'm finally not alone in this quest !

Just flashed, get stucked on white boot screen for minutes... nothing happens !
Trying to reflash (LEOMIG.nbh) with a WORKING and KNOWN rom, same result, nothing and stucked on boot image, no radio/rom in red on the left bottom part... **** !
Needed to reflash with shipped official HTC rom... Everything's fine now, but wasted 1 hour

I am seeing daily that ROMs are flooding this page. Can anybody tell me what is the best ROM as of today so that we can try also? That should be stable and less battery consuming.
well the best is what the members are PRESENTLY using.
and it changes very fast cause we flash/try every new cooked rom, we don't stay on one rom for so long...
so just try it ALL out and find out for yourself.

Thanks but not everybody is geek and cannot afford to flush its pda daily to see. So please tell me which is the best one so far?
the released WM6.1 is still the BEST because it came from HTC.
HTC haven't release an official WM6.5 rom for the Opal.
PhamQuang roms are great imo
im currently lookin for a clean rom but rightnow im using PhamQuang´s WM6.5 ROM V24 u can find it here:
this rom only problems (i found so far) are the dot on the calculator doesnt work (its really annoying) and a few visual problems because not all software is made to fit whit the satrt button on bottom.....
the best one always will be the one u like the most
post here which one u decide to use so we can check it out

I used one or two but were very buggy. So I reverted back to 6.1 and it is working very good until now. My problem is that I have installed many books related to my profession. I cannot afford to install all my programs on daily basis.
So I am waiting for a good stable version of 6.5. I don't want any manilla 2D. I have installed spb pocket plus and deactivated manila 2d.

if you dont want to install all your apps (contacts, alarms, email settings,sms...) everytime you flash your phone use a backup.... i use spbbackup and it backup even when you change rom just make sure you save your backup file on the storage card and you r done.
the only problem is that app is not free but use the trial version or look for the serial (i cant provide, forum rules).....

Hey guys
I Have rom 1.43 from UK, and I saw that a new upgrade is available to ROM 1.48, should I upgrade or is the 1.61 rom soon to be released.
Please advise as I have so many apps and its will take hours to get everything back, so it worth upgrading to 1.48????

Nobody knows...
Nobody knows when the 1.6x rom will be released. Nobody knows if you find it worth the effort... Nobody knows if you have any issues with the current rom and whether it will be fixed in the new version.
Sorry if this answer comes across a bit harsh, but how can other people decide for you if it's worth the upgrade. I don't believe there are any major changes between 1.43 and 1.48... No one knows yet what will be fixed in a 1.6x update, and when it will be officially released.
There is a turkish/WWE version floating around which appearantly has the camera fix included but I haven't noticed anything major in that one either.
Then again, using Sashimi and pimbackup flashing a new rom isn't that much work afterall (the only custom stuff I have to do is setup email acount and some shortcuts...)
So perhaps it's an idea to look into Sashimi which is a real timesaver when you flash roms often.
you should get spb backup, makes ROM upgrading so much easier, I upgraded from 1.43 to 1.48 in minutes and without having to reinstall anything

Sashimi takes over the reinstalling part as well and didn't have very good experiences with SPB Backup in the past. Perhaps it's better now though

Not really, SPB Backup has a "new ROM" mode. I don't think it screwed anything in my upgrade.
Best thing to do is use windows myphone and then make sure your micro sd is out. Installing apps doesnt take that much time anyway (well it depends how many you have!) Always best to set it up again incase anything comes back across
I also have 1.43 but I am not upgrading so far, because everything works well for me. If there's need for an upgrade - do it. If not, don't In the new rom, there are no new features as far as I know.
I'm in the same boat but am waiting as the only real problem I have is the SMS lag (No i will not disable the sense UI as I like it!!), and not getting any voicemail notifications, and these are not directly addressed in the 1.48 update so i'll wait and hope....

People making all kind of magic "registry cleaners" also do think they are doing right, useful and harmless stuff.
Clean installation is the only way to have confidence that *everything* will work *as intended*.

Have you complain to HTC? I have email them already, I think we need more people bugging them
Are we all blind?? But 1.61 has been "released" That is one of the offical WWE roms coming from HTC.
Simple answer, If it isn't broken don't fix it
There aren't a lot of bug fixes in 1.48 or 1.61, some minor speed increases in the latter but I'd wait till 1.65 or whatever is due after 1.61. (1.61 doesn't include the SMS fix..the next patch will though)

Hey guys
I couldn't find a previous thread about this.
In any 6.5.X build i tested (2311X, 2365X, 2356X), in the Manila Mail Tab:
After setting up an account and syncing it the first time, the preview won't work anymore.
Meaning that "Send/Receive" will show you the "green number" on the top right, but the mail previews are not updated. Can't swype to bring them up either ...
Only changing tabs will "update" it
Never noticed it before myself honestly until a user pointed it out
Anyone who's got an idea?
Grtz!
Hi there!
Ive attached a small video to show you the behaviour. This happens with all new mails i receive. Deleting messages works, the mail tab updates itself.

Well, personally, i would like to see this. Cause the mail functionality is one of the most important things on my device. I know that manila, or sense, is based on many packets for album, music player and mail which are cooked into your ROM right? Maybe you could use an older mail version? If not, i would prefer an older sense version. At least until a new sense is released which fixes this bug. But its your ROM, therefore your decision .

Hi All,
Could one of the cooks please create a ROM similar to the following?
I have a need for a Vanilla WM 6.5.5 ROM. That is without sense, htc comm manager, or any htc customizations that are not essential for the ROM.
I would like no Youtube app and viewing youtube videos from m.youtube.com enabled as they are currently disabled and they redirect to youtube app. Also when viewing Youtube videos in IE and I try to go full screen it goes to fullscreen portrate mode, could landscape fullview be enabled also?
If their is already a ROM like this could someone please point me in the right direction as I have been searching for a few weeks now and found none. I did try Energy ROM titanium but it was too customized for my liking.
I would prefer not to have to cook my own ROM as I am not very good at it. I used to cook my own ROM's for my Touch Diamond but I always had problems so I have given up on cooking.
Thankyou

Hi, I am planning on making a vanilla version of my ROM. It will have no HTC application what so ever and will be stripped down to a bare windows version.
thanks that will be great. I am currently using miri xtralight ROM for now but m.youtube.com doesn't work but flash video on most other sites work. please when you make your rom can you make sure the site work in ie.

If you want to get your phone repaired, better do a RUU. This resets everything to default as HTC wants it. From the default ROM with the default kernel, the recovery and even the SPL.
