I have an HTC branded unlocked Kaiser in the UK (Currently on T-Mobile)
It's still on it's original install, it's a bit clunky at the moment, but it was a bit slow on the screen updates to begin with.
At some point I will definately put a custom ROM on there - I don't want touchFLO or any fancy gimmicks, just my spb suite for the front end and multimedia stuff so I can play divx will do.
I just wondered how mature the ROM kitchen was for the Kaiser. Is it worth going for the rebuild yet? Would it become much more responsive or is that mainly down to the rubbish graphics drivers?
Oh, and also, once I have it all set up and extra stuff installed (eg TomTom activated), what recommendations do people have for backing it up to an SD card so that in the event of a wipe whilst away from home, I can have a reinstalled OS with TomTom already activated and installed?
I'd go for a Lite ROM either Alex's or Dutty's.
Alex_'s UltraClean ROM now with NetCF 3.5, SOD/XIP fix and SmartDialing

Dutty's Hybrid NO.7 NU-Skool Lite Rom RTM.zip

Make sure you have first installed HTC Kaiser Hard-SPL v1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=53280&d=1191643466
Then install the duttythroy HTC_ConnectionSetup_1_0_31002_1.cab
this will detect your T-mobile connection and setup the correct phone settings..
These ROM's will make your Kaiser fly!!!!

CAN ANYBODY GUYS HELP ???!!! I am looking for htc touch diamond for wizard.
Look Around...do You See Any Diamond For Wizard!!!!geeeez!!!
Don't be ridiculous, this phone cannot supported the nice 3d features(touchflo 3d) from Diamond...Save up some money and buy a tilt or a diamond or be happy with what you have......GOOSH!!!!!!!!!!!! I knew someone was gonna ask this question!!!!
have a nice day
the "Diamond rom will not fit on a wizard. it is too big. also the diamond is made for vga and not qvga(wizard) many of the apps are too difficult to reingeneer to be compatable with qvga, and the wizard's processor and ram will not run it well enough to be stable. Wizard has always been underpowered. maybe why it is probably the best device to test programs on... cause if it runs on a wizard it will probably run on just about anything!.
Alternative is HTC Home Diamond edition. But there ar other shells with a Diamond edition available
The TochFlo 3D is nice on the Diamond but his startup is very slow.
Diamond-like ROM
I can recommend JVDSpank's ROM - [02 Jun] WM 6.1 CE OS.19588 from Diamond - CLEAN *FAST!*
It's very quick and stable, and no-frills - there is no additional stuff. This does of course mean that you have to install all the programs you want (search on the forums!) or learn to cook your own ROM (search on the forums!).
Read the thread I linked to, and decide if this is what you want... It's what I am running at the moment, and I'm in the process of cooking a version containing all the apps I need...
I'll update my signature shortly to reflect this.
Can somebody explain it to me what is the difference between Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 6.1 on HTC Wizard device?
Is WM5 more stable than WM6?
Is WM5 faster than WM6?
What is the advance of using WM6 instead of WM5 on HTC Wizard?
Just give it a try in my opinion i can say that WM6.1 is much faster and stable than WM5. Also changing to WM6.1 solved many bugs for me which i had in WM5 ROM. Like WiFi connection problems, GPS module Nokia LD-3W connection problems with GPS navigation software etc... if i could compare it to something similar it is like to change from Windows 98 to Windows XP
Outstanding! So, You recommend me to use WM6, a? I will, is flashing procedure very complicated?
Like he said, the difference between 5.0 and 6.1 is immense. 6.1 boots faster, runs faster, doesnt require as much memory for programs, looks nicer, shoot...its just all around better.
The flashing process is not that hard, you just need to read, read,read the guides here for your particular phone, whether it is a G3 or a G4, and away you go! Ask here if you need any more help!
Treestsyat!
I just get my new Wizard, but it is G4 device
I just did CID unlock (HardSPL), and now choosing adequate WM6 ROM which I can use. I plan to put Slim Diamond 4, what do You think about it? Should be better than default O2 WM5 ROM, G4 safe, but we will see. I do not like TouchFLO It just disturbing me while I am using my XDA...
TRY
All of we Try lots of roms touchflo fre and enhanced... but it s a vicious thing hahahaha, jajaja just let your boring WM5 wizard revive with WM6.1!!!!!
I reflash my wizard G3 almost 3 times at month just to try some new features...
Hi guys,
I've flashed my i-mate KJam with Faria HTC Wizard ROM (here). Everything works perfect unless my wizard is extremely slow! I've to wait 10 seconds (or more) for start menu, apps, etc to run.
I've played with PagePool (using Wizard Service Tool) but even on 12MB it is still slow.
Is there any solution somewhere?
Thanks.
Well, one of the main reasons that your Wizard is so slow, is that the Faria ROM is over 2 years old! Try flashing to a new WinMo 6.1 ROM, they are MUCH faster than the old 6.0 ones.
But this one is the only "clean" rom I've found as there is no any extra software embedded into it.
I wish I knew how to replace SYS and XIP in this ROM with a new one and get it worked.
try few Vanilla Rom here, they are very *clean*
Dear fellas,
I'm thinking of flashing back from WM6.5 to Wm6.1, as I ain't enjoying the speed as much and WM6.5 isn't giving me any real advantage. I would like to flash it with TESS 2.F (or similar) with the following latest apps (which I find better in a WM6.5 ROM):
1) Sense 2.1 (probably can try 2.5 too)
2) MSN messenger
3) HTC camera
4) Topaz phone canvas
Can anyone pass me the cabs of these stuffs so i can install it on a WM6.1?
I don't want to try cooking or whatsoever due to lack of time.
Thanks!
bump.............
Any help?

About custom ROM of course. OK I know the first reaction to such question is that the question is stupid and "find out yourself" and such.
But I don't even have the device (I have HD2 and Touch Pro), I want to upgrade a colleague's Polaris because WM5 and our new Exchange 2010 don't fit very well.
So I don't have the time, our "prerequisites" are simple:
- WM6.1 and up.
- Manila (of any version) welcome.
- Stable and light.
Anybody can help?
If you are looking for WM6.1 then I recommend ROM in my signature. It comes without Manila. There is also a full flavor of this ROM with manila
thanks noted
unless someone comes with a nice 6.5 one (I already use 6.5.5 on my own devices)
use pcar's roms good stable and fast... also wm5? i swear this phone never came with that?!?!
what do you mean?
I am not looking at WM5 ROMs.
good rom => Pcarvallo's roms
WM5? I will explain. The touch cruise shipped with 6.0 upped to 6.1 then cooked to 6.5/6.5.x.
That was my point nothing really about it. Most likely a typo by you...
3LIT3 VIII Naked is probably the best choise. Everything what I tried worked without problem and soft-resets I did only extraordinarily.
Kostas' A- version is a stable WM6.5 rom, everything works very well.
Just try it out, you can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554071
thanks guys
3LIT3 VIII for 6.1, without doubt.
megan rom for 6.5. full stop.
