Hi guys!
I own an Xda II and I'm thinking of upgrading it to WM 2005.
After having a look around I'm a bit confused as I'm sure are a lot of other people because there's so many different versions of WM5 to choose from on this forum that I don't know which one to go for.
Could someone please recommend the best and most stable version of WM5?
Thanks a million.
Hi Rizwan
Could not agree more, I'm also confused as to what ROM is the best....
Eg, whats the fastest and most stable ROM out of the bunch?
Cheers
Fudge
well, its same with me a long time ago..
don't worry guys.. after several looking in this page, there's a several rom for WM2005 which is :
1. Helmi AKU3.5
2. C_Shekhar Rom AKU 3.50C (the newest rom)
3. other (like virgy, etc)
In my Opinion, you should try c_shekhar rom. its very nice looking (crossbow theme), more stable, quite fast..
hope you find the suitable rom.

Welcome , I'd strongly recommend not to try that! The XdaIIi is a completely different device altogether! Go the the Alpine Forum and see if you can find anything there. Here's the link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=242428
This is not an amibtious rom but its my first release.
The Rogers Rom seems to be newest of the wm 6.0 series and has some interesting changes, Call Display being one of them. Being on Rogers in Canada I decided to release a cooked rom based on it. I left alot of it original but upgraded a couple of things and added a bit.
I noticed that some of the software rogers released is different than the ones in Alex's kitchen kit.
For example the 4.08 camera in rogers is 4_08_28875_00 Alex's kit has 4_08_28288_00. This may indicate that some bug fixes were made but I am not sure.
Its just another ROM to try.
Removed:
Windows Live,
Cyberon Voice Speeddial 1.2
HTC Home
Bubblebreaker
Solitaire
Rogers bmp, wallpapers, some of the awful ring tones
Windows Update
Upgraded:
.net 2.0 to .net 3.5
SqlCeMobile 3.0 to 3.5
Added:
Quickmenu
GlossyBlackbars
Some themes I made
A few extra ring tones
Pocket Sudoku V.9
Synchrotime V0.95
Sleuth's UC Compliancy
I did a small trick where I took my animated.gif and called it startup.gif then simply copied it during the cold boot. End result, if you want to replace it with your own animate.gif just copy over top of the file with your own as it is not part of the ROM.
Also uploaded seperately a nice Symian Splash Screen and the original Rogers radio extracted from the Rom.

Thanks to Alex, jscepi, jugglerlkr, Dutty, Schap, for the kitchen and all the other utility and tutorial writers and xda Kaiser cooks. Your tools and tutorials have made this an exciting addicting site.
I have learned alot from you all.
Anyhow feel free to download and try it out, expecially if you are on Rogers.
Send me any feedback you have.

Thanks. I will try this out.
Cool bro, I've been waiting for someone to use the Rogers rom as base since we got a hold of it. Thanks, and I'll give it a whirl tomorrow and post some feedback as soon as I can.
So far the ROM seems pretty quick & clean. I have not installed any apps yet so I will report back again.
But, the radio seems to be ROM dependant. I have tried it with a few other WM6 Roms with no luck.

is the ROM dependant on this radio?
Rom dependant on the Rogers Radio?
I cannot say, I used the radio released with the rom. I have not tried other wm6.0 radios on it yet.
I wouldnt suggest using the radios for the wm6.1 roms such as the 1.64.xx or the 1.58.xx I would doubt they would work.
When I installed this custom ROM, it gets stuck at the end of the customization "Running SDAutoRun.exe".
I do have a SDConfig file in the root of my memory card.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi, I'm new to updating ROM's....
I want to update my S710 from its original ROM version 1.15.405.2 to the one i found on the site: RUU_Vox_HTC_WWE_1.34.405.1_4.1.13.54_03.10.90_Ship.
My radio version is 4.1.13.37_02.83.90. Can I use this update on my phone or not? Does the radio version's need to match?
Thanks

You should have no problem using this ROM to update your S710 as I used that ROM for a short while when it first came out, I then moved oveer to Dr. Gonzo's New Guava ROM, and I am now using his WM6.1 ROM, been using it since his first test ROM came out and I am now using his latest WM6.1 v1.0a ROM.
Roland
Roland, simple question. What is the advantage of upgrading ROM's? Newer features? Faster software? Just curious I guess. I just got my 710 and wondering whats the buzz with all this rom and 6.1 stuff. Thanks!
Chuck
@ Polarbair
To have the latest on your Vox offcourse.
Just like Rolandh I have updated my Vox with the WM6.1 rom from Doc. Gonzo.
And the new features and the increased stability are great.
Futher more I noticed the response of the software in some areas is better.
So all pro's and little con's.
Chong
The official HTC WM6 Update added a Network Setup Wizard and Office 6.1 to the ROM. Dr. Gonzo's WM6.1 adds Threaded SMS, New Internet Explorer Mobile with the ability to set your own Homepage, a better Home/Today Screen and some extra apps that Dr. G has added and is more responsive and a little bit more stable than WM6, and as Chongie says to have the lates version of WM on you Vox aswell.
Roland
Having only added Gregory's HTC plugin to this phone, if I wanted to add Dr. G's WM6.1, what is the proper way to do so? Is there some precautions I need to take first?
Not much precautions
Hi,
There is not much precautions to take, apart from taking backup of your contacts, that is and making sure that there is battery backup to your PC, so that the update process is not interrupted. Because once you update the ROM, all your data will be erased. Its like formatting your hard disk drive. If your vox is network locked (mine was not) then you need to unlock the phone first. If you download Dr G's latest ROM, then you will find out how to do it (there is a step by step guide that comes with it).
Honestly, if you followed the guide, there is hardly any chance of screwing up. And once you start using the 6.1 ROM, you will surely wonder how the hell could you ever have used the original ROM that came with HTC Vox
Wow, appreciate the awesome explanation! Thanks! As far as locked or unlocked, I'm assuming its unlocked. Bought it off Ebay, stuck my sim card from t-mobile in it, turned it on and worked like a charm! Have heard the term "bricking" phone, which i'm assuming means locking it up, correct? Since I wasnt the original owner, are there certain "codes" or info off the phone i need to get first? You know, like some software info or phone specific info?
Thanks again and am looking forward to upgrading this slow pig that wont update windows!
Off to back up contacts now, lol...............

if custom rom look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Vox_roms
Hey Everyone,
I suppose that my question can be solved quickly through you experts
I 've got a Kaiser with the M-Opal ROM, which has a M2D already built in - but it shows Ver.1.0XXXX. So I've seen that there are lots of newer builds available, how can I install them onto my phone?
I am asking this because in all kinds of downloadable installations there is required to uninstall all previous versions...
Greets
Matthias
This is relevant to my interests
You guys have checked the kaiser forum yh? Seen this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=545821 or this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519715 (6.5 i know)
Uhm... Yes I've seen these (5min ago )...
But what I wanted was to install it on my rom...
Whatever... Is there a possibility to get the main-windows system in german (and to translate some parts of the M2D?) But Windows in german would a good start...
I'm using WM for serveral years and I can remind myself that I had a kind of MUI or language pack for my WM5 which was running on my Tornado (Smartphone). Thats what I'd like to have additiona to that rom.
And also: is it possible to disable the honeycomb-menue style? I don't like it.
Thanks!
Hi first time poster.
I am the proud owner of a HTC touch pro 2.
Ive been reading on this site about the different roms eg Manila but goodness im so confused, im not really that tech pro. In my settings screen it says "TouchFlo 3D 2.1.38158.2", after some reading on this site it seems to me thats the manila version. is that right? if so how do i upgrade it so i can use the custom themes and skins.
Also i have windows 6.1 on my device atm. should/can i flash it? If so what is the recommended rom to put on (if thats the right way to put it)
Thanks in advance.

Welcome aboard
have a deep read here to learn hot to upgrade your ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
You can upgrade to wm6.5 if you want.
I can recommend Energy ROM´s
Leo= Manila 2.5 (slower for Rhodium)
Phoenix2= Manila 2.1 (better for Rhodium)
Good luck and enjoy!
thank you so much for your reply.
I just flashed my fone with hardspl but have yet to install a rom.
should i (do i have to) update my wm6.1 to wm6.5 to use the Energyroms?
i guess another way to put that question is, is it worth installing roms on my 6.1 or is it just simply better and wiser to upgrade to 6.5 and then flash a rom?
Give it a try!
Don´t be afraid, if you follow instructions all should be ok
And if you don´t like 6.5 you can always move it back easy!
thank you so much for your replies.
I cant seem to locat.e an upgrade rom for my fone and ive searched these and other forums like crazy, ive googled everything, been on the HTC website i just cant seem to locate it.
Rom version : 1.19.707.2 (51489)
Rom Date: 06/22/09
Radio Version: 3.55.25.27
Protocol Version: 61.25t.25.19U
Thats the infromation on my fone. i put up a thread in another forum and they just showed me the google link for the search and closed the thread. The search didnt help at all. Does anyone know where i can find the update FOR THIS.
Thank you so much
Do a search for Energy ROM´s
