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But it looks like it's out of date these days...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Hmm isn't Helmis the latest OS version rather than the most outdated?!?!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How can he have such build (acting as a newest one) and be almost 3 months out of date?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...
Hi,
I am not sure if this is the correct forum but, I would like to know how can I extract the radio rom from the orange rom update discussed in this post http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs/index.php/2008/07/31/orange-release-rom-update-for-htc-tytn-i. this update updates the tytn to win mobile 6.1, but as I am already running ROMeOS 4.21 I do not want the OS update but I am keen to use a Official radio rom with my network.
Am I correct that this should work better?
Regards
FYI
The newer Orange Radio is 1.65.16.25 you can get it from:

Hello i am a new vox user. Can somebody tell me the officlan latest rom version for Vox. My machine has CE OS 5.2.1235 and Radio Version 4.1.13.37 Do i need to make a rom upgrade I see a official rom in HTC suport page but i can not see the version of that rom there.
The version of the latest HTC ROM is 1.34xxx (look in Settings > Device Information) The latest shipped ROMs are on the ftp of xda-dev! Radios are olso on the ftp!
Be aware that the official ROMs are WM6.0. All Wm 6.1 ROMs are unofficial.
And for the future please use the search a little bit more!

Can anyone tell me what the latest available build is of WM6.1 for the Kaiser and where to get the files, I am attempting to cook a rom and currently have Alex's v5 3.03 Base Files, are these the latest sys, etc ?
I did have a look around but not sure myself to be honest, so thought I may as well ask.
Obvisouly the latest build may not be the official one from HTC so if someone could let me know what the latest official is and latest unofficial and where to obtain the bits to use in my own cooked rom using the kaiser kitchen. I have already done a custom splash, and found and prepared the radio I am to be using, just need details on the rom before I spend time using outdated files it that's the case.
Much appreciated.
Do you want a ROM or the extracted packages? What are you looking for? I too would like the latest for my ROM cooking. I have a buddie at technet who can get me latest stuff but I dont think I am able to redistribute. Ill see though.
Either, I just want to make sure I cook using the latest build of 6.1 so it's as fast and stable as possible.
Hmm, Technet you say, how, I have a full Technet Account and you don't get Windows Mobile stuff on it.
Is it the paid one? My friend has copys of 6.5 from Microsoft even. It may be different hes been a member there for 10years..lol
Could be, yes it's a paid one, I'm a member of the Microsoft IP Pro Momentum group also, and we don;t't have access yet, lucky git he is. Does that mean there are actually official 6.5 builds up that are for the kaiser, or has he been hacking away at it for cheffing ?
Ill ask him for the rom. Will you be able to just flash an official rom?
Would have thought so, is it supposed to be for the kaiser, or will it need manually di-sectting into sys and xip parts to build a unofficial ROM with ?
I have a UK Spec Sim Free HD2 using T-Mobile.
I have the original ROM (1.48) and am still running WM6.5.
My question is, what is the best thing to do:
A) Update my ROM to 1.66 - Download from the HTC website
B) Update my OS to WM6.5.3 - Where/How can I do this?
C) Update Both ROM and OS - Anyone done this? How have you got on?
D) Leave well alone - If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
Any advice is welcome.
NB: I tried searching the forum but I couldn't find any post which addressed these specific questions.
1.48 is broke so deffinatly install 1.66
no idea about the OS...didnt realise there was another one available...but then i am a n00b
It all depends, if you don't mind beta testing somebody elses work, go for 6.5.3 if you want a nice stable ROM for everyday use, go for 1.66.
