Folks this poll is to help me figure out what people like and want from my roms.
Please help me out so I can cook better roms going forward.
Thanks again for your on going support,
I voted for the v4.0 biggy, simply because it seemed the most stable, fast, and had nice battery life. Other have been more visually appealing but for actual stability and function 4.0 hasn't been beat. That being said I did enjoy 5.0UL, liked 6.1, and currently using the 6.5 biggy and am enjoying it. Looking forward to the next ROM you made.
I know before i said I liked version 4.0 but Version 6.5 Lite no TL or SPB was a come back

+1, here's another vote. There are a couple things I'd like to see added to each of those, but the whole reason I chose them anyway was so I'd have room to install what I want.
opentouch3.0
opentouch6.0>TL-lite
opentouch6.5>TL
love these ...the best i ever used on my wing ...... 3.0 was my first rom
Open Touch 4 Biggy and Lite seemed like the most stable versions of open touch i have ever used.
from testing your previous roms, 5.0UL was the most stable, best memory management, ease of use, packed with features on the today screen... and with the new build the 6.5UL should take over!!! ( for the roms you are cooking )
running 4.0. was using 5.3 but the sms issue was too much of a hassle, no fix was fixing the problem. jumped back to 5.0 but the version i had was missing parts of the interface i enjoyed. so i went back to 4.0 and it's been running like a dream. love it.
I LOVED the UL version of 5.0 concept, but i didn't like the small icons for sms,phone, etc. If there was some way to combine the UL version with the Throttle look, I think it would be great. Just an idea for you to run with ttran! Keep up the good work +4 Kudos!
I have used OT 3.0 lite and currently on OT 4.0 lite. I prefer lite version over others because it gives me the most flexibility yet with the foundation built.
Once I get less busy, OT 6.5 lite will be my next trial. Or maybe OT 8.0? Who knows... with the speed that Ttran pumps out new roms OT 8.0 may be very well expected in the next few weeks...
Thanks for the great work!
I've tried v6.5, v5.3 biggie,
but the one that worked perfect
out of the box was the 3.0 biggie.
that is the only one ive been abe to use.
Current poll status
Well so far it looks as if Version 6.5 Lite no TL or SPB is in the lead.
Please keep voting, this will help me in creating future roms.
Open Touch 3.0
I started off with 3.0, and I think it was most stable of all the other versions. I do really like 6.5 though. I just wish you made a biggy version of 6.5 without throttle launcher. It's too sluggish for me.
Hello
The ROM is super nice from the last one but I have two problems in counted with the new ROM
Biggy
1. Not able to change weather for another city or zip code
how can I do that
2. My phone kept calling it self at night starting at 4 am
I noticed it is dialing my own number
over and over
3. It dialed my other number on it own

The biggy will come without TL after the UL version has been released.
i loved open touch biggy v3.0 but i have to say i seriously loved the dialer from 6.1 spb lite diamond the dialer skin and the com manager skin i had problems getting any MMS's for some reason though. again how can i add the skins to the version i am using now 6.5 no TL no spb?

+1.
UL was that thang! Just waiting for another one.....
I really liked OT 5.0 diamond lite. The today screen was perfect. But the 6.5 build is super fast. I tried spb its just to intense for our weak little wings. TL has great potential but still to buggy for me. Id say the best thing would make a lite and a biggy with no shell and let people install their own.
#1 OT v.3 biggy #2 OT 6.0 lite Diamond spb
ive tried all of them and v 3.0 biggy has my vote being the best right out of the box, no bugs at all, ive tried the TL's way to slow even over clocked to 286 then tied 6.5 no spb or TL very fast one issue with mail keeps sending messages, as soon as i find the fix i'll be running this one
I'm using 6.0 lite Diamond spb runs very good bluetooth could be a little better, but then that could be cuz of all the crap i installed to make MS voice command work better so i could have caller ID over bluetooth, would be nice if i didnt have to reinstall the spb then copy files over,
is 6.0 biggy fixed

Check this out - it's called the Exeda??? (Never heard of them - apparently they specialise in embedded systems.
Also 6.5 looks very very very nice... Stunning even... and very different...
Very different to the builds I've seen floating around - (cough... blueangel... cough...)
http://www.exedamobile.com/web/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3&Itemid=7
sigh, I had really wanted them to put the task bar at the bottom or completely away with it and leave a 75% opaque small strip up there.
sure hope they improve email rendering.
but to heck with all the pictures I want to see it running. I want to have a good sense of what to expect.
but it looks ok so far.
I have seen these earlyer and the build they use with honeycomb interface and with the new CHome (Codename Titanium) is a lot newer than the leaked ones
"ugly device running on Windows Mobile 6.5" would've been a better title.
My question is how will 6.5 work with Touchflo 3D?
Finally, some better shots of WM 6.5. I hope they do more than just change the today screen though.

YUP = that one's got me confused too...
HTC'll probably have to disable it - therefore negating all their initial efforts to aesthetically update the wm gui...
hmmmm - guess time will tell on this one...
Am looking forward to the HTC's Rhodium and Tungsten running this WM 6.5 though - although I'd love those 2 phones to run Android too...
yeh, they can dump that device!
but, I'm itching to flash a 6.5 beta anyday now!

YUP - Me too!
Anything other than base 6.1 whatever build on my TPro sounds good to me!
6.1 feels like it's been out for eons!
True & very boring, WM6.1 has been out now for almost 18 months!
Goes to show how slow MS really is!
6.5 is just a minor ugrade to 6.1 hardly worth the extra 0.4 from what I've heard.
Tomal already has it working on a Universal http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=473096&page=3
Just seen the device i the original link - Ye Gods that's fugly!
One D-Pad for up and down and another for left-right? WTF?
I bought a Kaiser a while back for my gf. I have the touch pro (raphael) with energy rom 3.0. Im looking for something just as stable as that rom for her kaiser. I understand the rule of "flash a ton of roms a try them urself" but this case its a bit different. I dont want to flash a bug ridden ROM (trust me I have done that) and then have her complain for a week until I get the free time to flash another rom (and see her ofcourse). Im looking for a ROM that wont crap out on her, preferably 6.5 with manila 2d and titanium. Thats pretty much all her requirements.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
PS, I have searched and install 3 ROMS with the hotfixes but still have anoying bugs that come out after time.
I wanna find a stable WM 6.5 for my kaiser. btw, how much do u buy ur Kaiser? Is it operator-locked? Thx
unlocked, new on ebay for 160~180 dollars or so, it was about 3 months ago
I think Abusalza's WM6.1 ROM series is worth to try, for example the PDACorner Ultimate X V9
If it must be WM6.5 then may Ultimate X2 v10 will suit her needs.
TPC's ROMs seem a bit faster than Abu's, but I like applications in Abu's ROMs
If you don't mind her not having a lot of the features that make cooked roms better (different dialers, htc customizations, skins, tweaks, etc) then find one of the latest wm 6.5 builds in a light/ultralight rom. install whatever few apps you/she need, and you're done.
In my experience the more complicated the rom, the more likely to find bugs.
you might want to try shifus or gullums mega rom thos are stable enof, atleast for me
You guys are awesome. Thank you. I will first try Ultimate X2 v10, if that screws up im gonna try the naked or ultra light 6.5. Thanks a million.
Just remember you're flashing WM6.5 which isn't official yet that has been ported to a device it was never indended for.
Bugs are going to happen.
Thread Closed.

Hello!!
I'm a new user of the HTC Raphael.
I Started with it original roms (Frensh SFR) very boring ...
Now I'm trying some cooked ones:
|RAPH|ROM|6.5.5|WWE| ★ EnergyROM 'Leo' (23518/21889) ★ |Jan 18| Sense 2.5 !
[ROM][WWE][PRO|FUZE][WM6.5.3|28002][21NOV09] TAEL ROM v3.28002 • STANDARD EDITION •
Go to first new post [ROM][WWE][15 Jan 10] Exquisite 4.03a WM 6.5 (23518) for Touch Pro [GSM]
etc etc
For my opinion: I think that EnergyROM 'Leo' is tbe best, graphically not but very fast and we have all the soft that the need.
It will be very nice if members here tried to share their impressions about the different roms they are using...
Thanks
the first rom i used was NATF it came flashed on my fone, i changed 2 energyrom i did like it but after a while it was getting laggy for me i also tried tpc joshkoss 1 of my favorites but in my opinion i like ChromeRommas the most its fast great graphics and has all the good apps.
Thanks for reply...i get bored with rom using touch flo3D they are very slow
Ah... french Sfr, a real **** (i know what about i'm speaking... "c'est à ce moment qu'on se dit que finalement on n'aurait pas du prendre l'offre opérateur ").
I think lots of WM 6.5 Roms are useful, lots of utilities inside... but slow, not smooth. I had to hard reset once a week (Messaging is very bad !).
The fastest ROM is a WM 6.1 ROM with Touch Flo, and no Manila. Since i've tried Manila, i've some problems (no really problems, but i hate lag on my phone).
The next ROM i'll try is WM 6.1 TF3D (RomeOS or GEN.Y for example).
I have used around 4 different ROMs since getting my HTC Fuze almost a year ago. I personally have just recently began using EnergyROM Phoenix 2 WM 6.5 build 21889 after hearing so much about it. I must say I am very impressed. I switched to it from TPC in an attempt to fix a bluetooth issue (which it turns out was not even related to the TPC ROM).
So far I really like EnergyROM. It makes the phone feel like a device that is a pleasure to use. However, I also found that when I was using TPC V3 I had the same experience. Before using these two ROMs it always felt like I was wrestling with the phone whenever I wanted to do something with it.
I personally am now partial to EnergyROM due to the aestetics. On both ROMs however the internet browsing is very fast and most pages render really well. I also seem to get much better overall network speeds on these two, but this could very well be related to a radio upgrade I did along with them. I seem to get very good battery life with both ROMs. GPS also seems to easily work great on both. I actually prefer the dialer used on Energy as it seems to integrate very well on the phone, but TPCs also works good. Application wise both of them come with tons of essentials. I found that TPC seemed to have more integrated, but most of them I do not utilize. One big plus I found on the applications is that Energy has a working "HTC Wifi Router". This did not previously work on my phone before.
Forgot to include one of my favorite parts of the current Energy ROM I am using. This ROM is using Sense 2.1. This is an absolute joy to use! It very closely resembles what TF3D is, but works 200% better! I experience very little lag and all of the integrated features I have tried work as they should. Not to mention that it just looks amazing. This is what TF3D should have been! I almost feel sorry for people who still use the stock ATT ROM and TF3D and have not been able to experience either a custom ROM and/or Sense, as it makes the device a whole new experience!
Wish I could give a better review of both ROMs, but I have only used both for a week so far!
Hi,
i've seen this Pic at Modaco and i wonder what is to see on the Homescreen
I think it is Manila 2.5 but it shows CallHistory and Calendar like Manila 2.1
Is it possible to port it in a actual CFW with Manila 2.5?
This could also be manila 2.1 .. The newest versions of manila 2.1 have the same slider icons as 2.5 and aslo weather on the hometab ... having seen the latest 2.5 version that have come out lately, I am almost sure the sense shown in the pictures is sense 2.1
Try CookyMonster's mod with new Sense 2.5. Then you can change some reg. settings to have Call history and so on with sense 2.5
this is actually the new HTC HD mini, revealed at MWC in Barcelona. Sense interface looks like 2.1 but with a twist, like footprints and twitter, just like 2.5 has. Also, interestingly, it has officially 6.5.3 on it. maybe our beloved chefs will get something good out of this baby.
L.E. according to slashgear.com, the new Sense on HD mini is specially tailored by consumers requests, so it might be the best of 2.1 and 2.5 together. the hardware is lower specced then HD2 and closer to Topaz, but it has a capacitive touchscreen. therefore it might get a WP7 update
Ahh...OK.
It's a Symbiose of 2.1 and 2.5...
We will see when its released in some Months

I am 100% sure it won't get WM7 update, for one good reason it requires 1ghz and it has only 600mhz...

AGAIN! There will be NO upgrade of WM7 for the current devices. Maybe only for the HD2 but even that's still a rumor. Back to reality!

From what I've seen, they can keep it.
I have never cared for any WM UI and it looks like they made it worse than Titanium.
Problem is, you can't unselect it to run anything else.
It would be running in conjunction with any other interface which could be an issue for system resources.

You will first need HSPL to unlock your device then you have to find a 2.5 manila ROM to flash.
Flashing instructions are in the ROM threads
I bought an HTC Pro 2 yesterday, and Windows Mobile is horrible. It freezes, using the internet is nothing like an Iphone, and this morning it cut off by itself and would not power on at all no matter what, and the battery was full. I had to take out the battery and reinsert it to get the phone to come on. Soft Reset would not work.
Is there a way to install Android 2.2 on my phone?
Thanks
dude, trust me, the TP2 is great device. Find a nice WM ROM and install it, this will fix most of your problems.
as for surfing, I find Opera Mobile more than capable...it's fast and displays content in great way. Opera mini is a great alternative too.
Regarding your question: check this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=589
you can dual booth WM & Android on your TP2
I personally like WM more. It's much easier to customize.
I recently installed Android on my kaiser, and I'm starting to like it..maybe I'll install it later on my HD2 and see how it really works on fast device...
Remember that these ports will not be without any problems, they are not made by HTC, so is you are looking for stability, go for a good WM ROM. This will be the best thing to do.
Check out ppcgeeks.com, they have a ton of CDMA ROMs for windows mobile, I personally have BigNaDads Sense ROM and it is my favorite by a long shot, very stable and comes with alot of things preconfigured....
