Yes, that's what I'm wondering too, can someone please tell us what's the best english rom out for this phone?

I guess we all are on same boat, trying to find the best available ROM for prophet after WWE offcial ROM as its been quite a while for offcial ROM upgrade for this device.

Check the FTP
There are several cooked ROMS avail. There are several 2.3 versions, and the 3.2 Beta is also out. Do a search. As for which is the best, it depends entirely on you. What I do is READ & READ, until I get an overall sense which is the fastest, most stable etc. In the end, what many people say is best for them, may not be good for you.
But like you, I've been usin the Dopod official ROM since May, and feel it's time to inject new life into my device.
If anyone care to give a short review of the ROMs they've tried in this thread (or make a new one), it'll definitely help a lot of people...

If you love aku2.0 customized rom in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=269313, I bet you like this AKU2.3 customized rom.
ftp:/ /xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/Prophet-roms/RUU_Prophet_G3_2151327_AKU23_023021_P12MB_Dopod_PDAMobiz_v103.rar

It's AKU2.3 with extended rom as same as v.1.02, fast and stable.

You may choose 8mb or 12mb (less problem from users feed back).

16Mb_AKU2.3_GSM02.30.21_Extrom-4PDA.ru.exe
I am using 4PDA/Frog's 2.3 ROM from the FTP site. Its fast and stable. The problem I had with the PDAMobiz rom was its full of stuff and made to device slow, also it reset sometimes on its own. Also the backlight would come on for no reason.
I have tryed all the ROM's from the FTP site and this is the best IMHO.

16Mb_AKU2.3_GSM02.30.21_Extrom-4PDA.ru.exe is G3 only i think. i.e. SPL 2.15.0000

hello,
is it possible to update an G4 Device by copy the nk.nbf file from the above package to a "G4 Rom" and replace the existing nk.nbf?
For example in the RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID Rom?

If you do not really know about it, don't try. Because it might be a possibility to break you prophet, if that nk.nbf has spl 2.xx.0000 inside.
Use itsme pdocwrite to upgrade to G4 by replacing ru.nb with your new os rom. (you have to use command "typho5.exe -x -v nk.nbf" at dos prompt to extract os-rom, check at ftp for typho5.exe tools)
Upgrade utility is in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=277474 (look for upgrade for G4)

someone could make about the Roms a sticky thread here. Which is aswell updated

G4 Roms (AKU):

or something link that. will help to find the actuall roms for the right devices better....

Best ROM for Prophet (M600?)
well I can't really answer that can I but I can report the following.
I started off with the Orange oem ROM. Quickly I decided I wanted to get rid of this as I'm not with Orange (and I'm an incessant tinkerer), so I went for the RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.
My phone was unlocked using the IMEI-CHECK service (so not sure what they unlocked exactly but it seems happy for me to re-flash it).
I ran with this ROM for maybe 2 months- no real problems BUT I really missed the voice speed dial.
A couple of days back I went for the 16Mb_AKU2.3_GSM02.30.21_Extrom-4PDA.ru.exe
This seems to be stable so far, a "bit" more responsive maybe, but with the unexpected bonus of having voice speed dial again!!! Yes, this ROM has voice speed dial - hoorah.
So for any of you old Orange M600 users who upgraded but lost the voice speed dial this could be for you.
I've not spotted any major problems at all. The only odd thing was that the COMM Manager hard key was not bound. A 2 sec job to fix that.
Now I did do a soft reset before letting the hard reset process finish with the customisations. No idea what happens there in this case.
I <believe> my phone is G3?? The IPL is 0000 - is that correct?? I read and checked everything I could and it seems to have turned out OK.......

Is there any way that someone could do up a quick, idiot proof tute on how to update your rom on a G4 device?
Also, is this AKU2.3 rom 16Mb_AKU2.3_GSM02.30.21_Extrom-4PDA.ru.exe in russian or english? The website link which shows the AKU2.0 version is all in russian...
Thanks guys (from another n00b)

The most stable official Rom ?

Hi there.
I recently bought a XDA IQ (similar to SP5) with a O2 Rom.
THe version is 2.0.11.0
Without having done anymodification, the phone was Sim-unlocked : I tried with my orange Sim card and it works.
But I had to app-unlock the phone using the registry modification method, it works as well. I had installed WM5torage without problem.
Now I want to know if I change the Rom version, will the phone still be Sim-unlocked ?
If yes, what is the more stable (official) version for it ? (same question with the WM6 Rom, will my cellphone become sim-locked after flashing ?)
I don t want to have to use Spvservice.exe cause it doesn t work with wndows vista.
Thank you for your help.
David

None of the ROMs here are "official". In terms of stability I have tried ROM from andot and jm012a9749 and found andot's rom to be more stable as most of the bugs are fixed now (they are both based on the same ROM, just two variations). And once you flash the ROM it will be sim and app unlocked.

Personally I've found that the i-mate SP5 AKU2 ROM is the most stable OFFICIAL ROM, available here: ftp://ftp.clubimate.com
Also, changing the ROM doesn't affect your SIM Lock...
Phil

Thank you for you answer.
On the I-Mate site, there is different files, what is the latest ROM ?
Thanks

I agree. It is time to upgrade my friend... There are so many roms out there that are almost 100% stable with everything working and not all of them include all of the extra crap either... If you wanted to keep the same general look going on and not the touchflo if thats what you're trying to avoid, then look into some of the professional roms instead of the touch roms.
A good example is TNT5.0 Professional. It has all the amendaties of WM5 but also supports all of the WM6 software.
...Thats my opinion anyway

I have
I've updated to WM6 many times with multiple roms, but they tend to lag in performance. Though one rom looks promicing is this one here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331812
BUT! It's a Hermes rom and I have no Idea how to flash that onto a wizard. So instead of risking my Wizard to brick, I was hoping someone could possibly patch those cabs for WM5.
If anyone is looking for a little project, please patch those cabs on the first post.
Thank you

i use TNE with over clocking, with no problems. just as fast as wm5 if not faster.
touch no evil.
and dont flash a wm6 rom that wasnt built for the wizard.

give this rom a try. It was originally made by its right but I personally modified it to have a larger page pool and is quite fast.
It is a touchflo rom though... Not sure how fond you are of those style roms...

???????????
Well does anyone just have the base WM6 rom that I can flash? Nothing custom, just the standard, factory WM6 rom? Cuz that would be the only way I would be willing to upgrade. If not then I just want the cabs to work on WM5.

Well there is TNT Official... It's the closest to an actual OFFICIAL Wizard WM6 rom as you are going to get...
Install that(it is CLEAN, nothing on it really) and you can install anything you want if you're not interested in a custom rom.
You could also give this a once over...

Touch-It coming to wizard, but a few questions...

Hey, I have a few questions about the wizard. to the chefs here.
I usually cook for herald, but a friend has a g4 qtec 9100, and he wants a rom from me. I started to cook, by port a kaiser rom to wizard, using kaiser sys and oem from a wizard.
Cooked in my packages, built the rom, and coverted to nk.nbf.
I flash with the shell tool. And here comes first question:
Since I have Vista, I presume that this is what cause some problems. When I use the shelltool, I get a "freeze" on the program (It dont answer) But I let it be on for aprox 20 min, when its "frozen"
The rom install fine, but the exrom dont install (In herald this is running fine after flashing the os.n
I tried same with a clean wizard rom, flash it, and no extrom loads??
second, my htc hme dont show up..weird...maybe its the reg settings that need to be changed?
Well, Im sure this is "silly questions" that all you chefs here has knowlege about, and im sure you have answered it many times before
BTW, have a look at my kaiser port to herald
Wing version
P4350 version
When its done and my friend is happy with it, I can post it here if anyone interested
And ill up a vanilla base rom to, with .rgu in it. if anyone wants it .) or just the oem, sys and rom folder

please post link with info and pics

look in first post

Some questions about the NVID WM5 ROM?

After trying several WM6 ROMs for my iMate JAMin (G4) I've gone back to WM5, as using this as a phone is my main priority, which every WM6 ROMs have failed to do.
Now I've got the RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID WM5 ROM installed.
I'd like to know a few things:
1) Is there a better WM5 ROM than the current one I'm using
2) Is there any way to increase the free RAM? Is this Pagepool thing applicable to WM5 too? I get only 23.5MB free after a soft-reset
3) Can I get Office Mobile 6/6.1 installed in any WM5 ROMs?
4) Can i run HTC Cube in a WM5 ROM?
5) The HTC Network Wizard was a useful tool which I miss in WM5. Can it be installed & used in WM5? If yes can anybody give me the CAB for the same?
Thanks guyz....

Yes there is pagepool changer for wm5 too.The default page pool is set at 8mb if im not mistaken,you can change it to 6mb or 4mb,the post is stickied in the Prophet forum.A small suggestion though,back up your default pagepool before changing it.

Hello arvind,
Sorry I couldn't find any sticky regarding Pagepool. Can you please post the link.

Why no replies, people?
Any probs with my questions??

What's the MATTER!!!
Why's that still there's no replys!!!

oh, and doomasala, if you're still following this thread,
I advise you to try WST for your PP requirements
...it's not even designed for this phone, but I believe it will work
