Are we ever going to see a ROM based on the latest stable CE OS 5.2.1933 (Build 18533.0.7.0)..? If I knew what I was doing, I would have been located this ROM and made it readily available to all as soon as it came out... It seems as if we almost got bamboozled into thinking the 1978 build was the latest ROM released which turned out to be a fake build in the long run...
New ROM of duttythroy is based on latest Build 18533.0.7.0. See ==>here<==.
duttythroy:
Its the latest Build 18533.0.7.0 with CE OS 5.2.1978 based on helmi_C pre-released rom.
It is based on the 18533.0.7.0 build but the CE OS is not based on CE OS 5.2.1933...
Anyone..?
CE OS 5.2.1933 is the latest build
the 1978 is an hex edited rom from 1918 build
I don't think there's a Kaiser rom based on 1933 is there yet?
all of these new roms are ports from other devices. personally i dont like this they are prone to bugs and other things which is still why i run my bistorage version of the Kaiser release rom. it is the most stable and has no bugs what so ever.
Okay... It kind of makes sense to me now. I could have sworn that all of the devices had access to the same ROM's once they become available and we (Kaiser/Tilt owners) just haven't paid any attention to the latest builds... I'm hoping we do get a real updated ROM in the near future though...

What exactly is your CE OS and Build?
I agree the ported roms may not be the best, but HTC is on a trend to release many msm7200 based devices, like the Touch Dual for exemple, which is extremely similar to the tytn2, and as such should profide a good source of updates.
Sounds good to me. I guess we just have to patiently wait if we want the best possible ROM's for our devices...

I have to agree with austin.... having tried every release for Kaiser so far I always go back to his bigstorage version as it´s rock solid. For your info the CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2)

Dear All,
I would like to ask what is the latest WM2005 ROM version? and is it the best ROM? if not then what is the best version? I have found some on buzzdev.net but I don't know because this my first unofficial upgrade.
I have XDA II with loader 1.01.
Thanks a Lot,
they are all based on the same core rom with improvements
newer versions == more improvements
other then that it's all about how big a ramdisk they are installed
hi rudegar,
sorry, but I must disagree.
they are not based on the same core...
and there's much more differencies, than just size of RAMdisk.
take care
buzz
and what the difference between rom kitchen n rom?? i've read the post by buzz in buzzdev.net, there is 40mb in rom kitchen n 20mb in rom.. what type should i use??
thanx
Updates are good

I agree with Buzz.
I think that windows mobile 5.0 is based on windows CE 5.0 architecture and there can be updates to both and the size of a ram disk is not that important as long as a device is capable of running your desired apps without running out of program memory. A newer roms is likely to run better and be more compatible with apps but can still contain bugs. I think that I got more performance from reg editing and ocing that upgrading from 2003se to 5.0 but i always try a new rom.
Buzz do you use ms voice command and any idea on the problem it has with AKU 3.2?
p.s. a rom kitchen is where roms are cooked!
"I think that windows mobile 5.0 is based on windows CE 5.0 architecture"
well we all agree on that one
the place that buzz set to streigth was when i said that
all windows mobiles were based on the same leaked 2005 rom
What I have seen is ROMs based on AKU 2, AKU 2.3, and AKU 3.2. of course each with it's own personal customization and may be some tweaks for performace. From the experiance what is the main differances between AKU versions and what is the best customization from the features and the performace point of view?
I have tried all the wm05 roms here but i got nothing but the sad thought that i don't have a compatible wm5 device. All of them have many flaws and none of them work correctly or as fast as they should be.. not even 03se. After many upgrades and downgrades i found out that the best one is the qtek rom and nothing else. It wasn't suposed to work on wm5 so don't upload versions with bugs and so... try to get a version that will not move slow, will have all the original programs, all the original programs will work and let the user install whatever he wants, don't make roms with preinstalled programes because that only makes them work slow .
Try AKU 3.2 ROM as they r latest and the stable one .
agree with you. stable and fast.
Hi,
i have a little question.
Which and how many versions of OS exist and which are the differences.
The OS version 5.2.318 is come before or after the 5.2.1413?.
Thanks for your answers.
Good question and should be pinned (if i didn't miss it when i joined)
From what i gather 5.2.1413 is a newer build but had more bugs that these developers in some threads fixed for there roms.
Yep 1413 is a newer build and it also came with the new 2007 version of Office Mobile.
The OS build question has an excellent answer in the second post of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316447
Hi there,
Anyone knows about any cleanest ROM with latest updates (OS patches, HTC patches) and no other stuff in it?
I would go for Alex's UltraCLEAN ROM but it looks like the OS is too old comparing to Helmi's/Dutty's/Schap's ones.
So far the best I ever used is Helmi's Clean ROM, no custom splashscreens, no custom graphics, just completely clean ROM (I appreciate any performance tweak, not bloody graphics )
But it looks like it's out of date these days...
Any hints?
Thanks,
Gabriel
ROM OS versions
To be clear:
Duttys New years Rom 2k8 Fixed [DualTouch v2] TouchFLO: v5.2.1933 build 18533.dutty
Dutty's SupaLite Rom v5.2.1948 build 20000.dutty
Alex.HTC.156.UC4.ROM v5.2.1620 build 18125.0.4.2
Schap's WM6 Pro 4.30 ROM v5.2.1948 build 18548.0.7.0
Helmi kaiser aku.0.7.0_04_clean v5.2.1978 build 18578.0.7.0
See the difference?
Hmm isn't Helmis the latest OS version rather than the most outdated?!?!

Ha! You see? you got the point
How can he have such build (acting as a newest one) and be almost 3 months out of date?
Any fake going around?
FWIW, I stripped and released the Folders & OEM packages from the HTC ROM found in this thread.
thats not exactly how is works
Its not always the newest builds that are the best
But the builds usually is ported from other devices, like polaris, touch dual or w/e.
I have portet the build in my kaiser to herald, (norwegian) and I portet polaris os to herald (wwe) its the same build, I duplicated excatly same edits, removals of files...did exactly the same setup. But there is a very noticeable diffrence in speed and stability on the two ports, even though it has same apps, same setup, same os build.
I dunno if this explain anything to anyone
But do not make the mistake beliving newer os version is better.
cheers
IIRC (and I could be completely wrong here) the 5.2.1978 build was a fake.
Something to consider with these build versions is that not all of them are built for the Kaiser - some of them have been ported from other releases for other models of device.
Some people only believe in using builds that were intended for the Kaiser, others think that there are benefits from using new versions.
As with all things in software, with fixes come more bugs - newer revisions might have one thing fixed, but another three broken. You never can tell.
Beyond ROM versions, there's also software versions which can be even more significant. For example, we're seeing roms with a much newer version of the camera software now.
So there's an awful lot to consider really.
Alex 1.6 rom is using the most updated at&t rom which should include all the basic patches from bluetooth hot fix to the other stuff. If you want newest NetCF on there, you can cook that in. Many of those roms have been tweaked out, so using Alex's rom, I think is the cleanest. A little bit more understanding of these version numbers would help you understand more about these roms.

Absolutely agree with you itje. The latest HTC OEM apps also go a long way in helping you determine how "latest" a ROM is. CE OS Build alone shows only part of the picture...
Im looking for a clean os, preferably CE 5.2.19400 (Build 19199.1.0.0).
I want to have a clean base OS to start adding my fixes, applications and tools. I have tried to disect many of the "vanilla" versions from people, but even their clean versions still include a lot of garbage I dont want and is almost impossible to clean. I would rather start from a totally clean os and build up from there.
Thanks,
jay
I would also like to know this.
further, how can one be sure that a 'clean' os (or any freely downloadable rom for that matter) is free from software that snoops on you, etc?
Here is the 19400 dump
http://www.sendspace.com/file/kdincu
I wonder, is a Hermes dump usable to cook a Wizard ROM?
And you mention, "CE 5.2.19400 (Build 19199.1.0.0).". Is that newer or older than the custom ROMS that are advertised as WM 6.1 build 19209? I mean, does that mean CE 5.2.19209 build xxxxxx or CE 5.2.xxxxx build 19209?
Cheers!
CE 5.2.19400 (Build 19199.1.0.0) means OS from new build, XIP from old build.
However there are some fake ROMs that with modified OS version, this may be the case (Because official 19209 ROM is AKU 1.0.2, how come this ROM is still AKU1.0.0?)
ROMs for other devices can be used in Wizard after porting (at least OS(SYS+OEM) porting must be done). You may use XIP from other Wizard ROMs, but will show your old XIP build in the About screen.
Thanks for the explanation, it's clear now
I have used HD and HD2 before, now thinking of getting a X7510. I have found the 21893 build to be pretty stable. Is it possible to build a ROM based on the 21893 build?
Not expecting anyone to do it for me here, was thinking of picking up a new hobby, just need to know if there will be any restriction on porting the 21893 build to X7510?
Thats an old build, but it will work.
If you want a stable old 6.5 rom you could try:
[ROM][WWE|ESN][03-Jul-09] xTep 3.00 WM6.5
