Windows Mobile 6

At this moment what is the best Windows Mobile 6 ROM??
1) WM6 Smart v2
2) Fantastic Mobiz XBow v1.1i
3) PDAMobiz Prophet WM6 V1.00
4) other?
Thanks!

Well I am using Fantastic Mobiz XBow v1.1i and I personally feel this is the best of the 3 roms.
I have Used Smart v2 on my Dopod 818 pro and it was pretty buggy with crashes. With Fantastic Mobiz XBow v1.1i i havent had any issues so far been using it for a week now.

For my use i do best like Smart1 WM6 V2.. I think theres to much crap with the Fantastic xbow v1.1i.. Many apps wich i never gonna use and thats not the case with smart1 v2, wich i also think is the fastest of all the current wm6 roms..

For which phone? and what is your view of "best"? If I assume you are talking about prophet phones cuz you posted here, then the answer is depends. What are you looking for? I tried pretty much all of them, none of them are perfect to my standard. Wait for the official ROM for prophet if that is ever gonna happen. I will be perfectlly happy with an official wm5 AKU 3.3 even.

None of them is stable even I have tuned the font and file memory. It still got hung often. I am using the offical rom again.

Smart1 v2 runs pretty fine here without crashes. Just the documented bugs.

Yo Alberto... as you can read in the forum, all those WM6 for the Prophet are a lill buggy. It compares to the user and his wishes, if one bug is important for him or not.
if you r looking for a fast and stable Prophet ROM, in my opinion the ASERG Rom is the best and the fastest you can get at the moment.
No WM6 Modification reach that speed, i tried them all and turn back to ASERGs ROM. I guess a stable WM6 for Prophet will take a while, anyway thanks to all of you guys who spend their time on modding it for us .

sure ASERG Rom is the best and the fastest WM5 with WM6 appear
Stable no hang .... no soft reset ... never and never need hard reset

Yes, but .13.ASERG loses email settings, WiFi settings and God-knows-what-more (I'm testing it right now) when soft-resetted or battery removed. Inacceptable, I guess :/

Best Rom For HTC Wizard?

I know many of you may think this is based on opinion, but personally I'm new at the scene and just tried Faria's WWE WM6 ROM (the real thing) featured at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297762 .
My original reason for installing was cause my 8125's OS started lagging lately for some reason (it would take a few seconds for menus and items to show up instead of being instant). In addition, battery life was HORRIBLE (would die in around 2 days). So I went and downloaded Faria's WWE WM6 ROM (the real thing). Installation was easy, the ROM worked great, my battery life greatly improved (even though I overclocked to 247 with cpuscaling at 143).
Unfortunately, I messed around too much and accidentally killed my phone application , not to mention the OS has started to lag (probably because I installed too many things?).
Either way, I'm looking to download a new ROM. I want something that has all the features of Faria's HTC Wizard Rom (the real thing), and more. I don't care too much about extra space, because frankly I don't need it. I just want something that's fast and feature-packed (and includes everything from Faria's ROM). Any tips or suggestions? Help would really be appreciated, as I've just gone through 3 ROMS that I didn't like. Thanks.

try explore rom it prob more of the lines your looking for

Try this one.

I have tried many different ROM's, I keep going back to this one. It's the most stable for me.

Core 2.0n
For me, the best WM6 rom is the Core 2.0n (based on XPlore 1.0)
Thephone is very fast (boot in 35 seconds), no bugs, working well with TomTom6.
I'm only waiting a full French WM6 rom

for months of WM6.0 use; Faria is the best for stable.
im testing Pandora 1.05 right now.

From all of the ROMs that I have used. I think Faria is the best one. it's very stable.

pfff i think its best for me:
base version of Pandora:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=307080
and core 2.0 of coz.
Faria's overloaded imo.

i like reloaded

Faria The Real Thing is most stable for me

soft reset everyday, to remove the slow down due to any memory leaks
and I'm gonna buck the trend here, wm6 is SLOW. use a 2.26 if you want a quick one
two day battery life sounds good some people think one day is good others, several days (but it depends how much you use it).

I am completely of agreement with you.

5.2.1413 fast
Hi,
i have been using Xplore 2.0n and it is great.
Its near Full Vanilla, but it supports AD2P and most of the basics.
The new 5.2.1413 build is FAAASSTTT, and there are FULL VANILLA releases, nevertheless, i was unable to set AD2P.
If there is a fix for ad2p, i will surely switch to 5.2.1413 because it is way way faster than Xplore 2.0n

I agree. i have been on this fourum reading for a while now. I recently desided to become a member.
For the prize core 2 definatly gets my vote. it has been the most stable. doesn't require soft or hard resets.
i belive by far the best yet....
I know you chefs are always on the grind trying to make better.
Appreciated :}

I have a quick question...
Which one is newer/better?
Faria's WWE WM6 Rom ?
Or Faria's HTC Wizard Final ROM with Pro Kitchen?

The ROM Kitchen is the newer version of Faria's rom, and its vanilla, but you can add stuff into it. My Crossbow Reloaded (link below) is a cooked version of this rom with stuff added to it and a few fixes I put into it.

Rom Reviews Anyone?

I have searched already and haven't found reviews of the new cooked and stock roms out there that we all use and love. If your flash happy like myself you would love to here unbiased reviews of the roms and I don't mean whats in the exisiting threads for each rom that have complaints, rants, and flaming. If anyone else would like to jump on this please let me know or just start reviewing the roms yourselves and the mods will hopefully start a sticky for reviews. Thanks and to all the great chefs keep up the good work.

dutty's roms are quite nice. They've got the basics. You'll probably need to install a few things for personal needs, but not too much.
For example, I always install HTC's Task manager. But he took it out since some people liked the WKTask (eww).
I've tried a few random others, and some pack in too many apps
**Edit for links** http://duttythroy.lives-in.eu/
->Current thread for V4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361544

I'd like to be able to stick with a ROM for long enough to be able to do a full review
Agreed, Duttys v4 felt nice but I changed to Q-Mobile because I was having problems with bluetooth on the v4 rom.... After playing around with the Q-Mobile rom I don't actually think that the BT problem was caused by duttys rom.
Q-Mobile is nice and clean but I've had problems installing some stuff, again might not be anything to do with the ROM and it may well be the user and or the cabs at fault
What I'd really like is to try out a WM6.1 rom to see if the new network drivers sort out my wifi problem but Im really unsure as to which is the best, hopefully some people will post their thoughts on 6.1 roms in here.

duttys are typically the more favored... but recently i think sleuth stole the spotlight back with wm6.1 v3.0 it is faster than a cheetah on steroids

That sounds fast

Roms depends on user needs Some people like fancy stuff. Like duttys one and some others with dual touch, cube etc.... And some people are professional they want fast, effective. I am in love with sleuth rom. I didnt have to install separate radio, separate java bla blah. Everything working out of the box working fine. Some people have issues like skype and core player. But they are problem with all 6.1 version.

I would of LOVED sleuth's wm 6.1 v3.0 if the audiomanager worked There were a few other small things, such as how to disable threaded sms, without killing the notifications (I didn't really like the threaded smsing, but I got enough smses that if I didn't get a notification it would mean lots of missed smses)
I spent the last 10 hours or so flashing different roms onto my phone, I've went back to Q-mobile 1.2 =/
If you don't mind the threaded sms and don't use audiomanager (I installed mortplayer to compensate) I'd suggest Sleuth's 3.0 6.1 rom.

I've tried just about every rom here and I keep going back to Q-Mobile 1.2.

I love dutty's customizations, but I have to agree that Quentin's are the most polished. I have tried almost all of them and have settled on Quentin's Q-Mobile 1.2 for now (with a lot of my own customizations of course).

Just wait a little bit
All I have to tell you guys is wait and see

Current is Sleuth 3.0 WM6.1
I am using an ATT Tilt version in the US, I have tried many of the current roms (to me some were more well done than I like, Some were not stable or under done) I like 3 roms
WM 6.1 - I like Austinsync's rom and Sleuth 3.0
WM 6.0 - I like Q-Mobile 1.2 (Sorry have not tried any others but the Sleuth version is probably good there too)
Cheers
BR

For now, I'm staying away from the 6.1 roms (I have a feeling that "for now" will change to "right now" once dutty's new one is released) but I've been using dutty's V4 since the day it was released and I love it. It's very fast and has everything you need.
...for now.

Haze,
I would say give Dutty a couple of days, or a week at the most, and he will release his newest flavor. The beta testers have worked really hard to get a perfect ROM to the community. You will be pleasantly surprised at the result. One thing you should know. Dutty has been building a WM6.1 ROM without a phone much like Schap's does which is quite amazing.

why do they both do it without phones? Did their phones break or are they using other ones? Anyways I like Q-Mobile 1.2 but I received a lot of error messages I didn't get on other roms. Sleuths is good also but a little too clean for my liking. Downloading Dutty v4 now hopefully this is a winner until his 6.1

Dutty's phone bricked and Schap's has never had a device.

I have 2 devices, 1 with dutty's WM6.1 and the other is Sleuth 3.0's WM6.1. Both are great in their respected fields. I think dutty's is the most organized of the two. Speed wise Sleuth is ahead but thats also due to a larger page file.

What page pool are you rockin' right now. Notice any difference in battery life?

Sleuth 3.0's WM6.1 rocks!
Tried Alex 6.1 but have no luck with no-sound problem.
Switched to Sleuth 3.0 and I stay so far.
Waiting for new version of dutty. I hope secret testing policy will help here (?)

I think it would be awesome if Dutty made a clean version of 6.1 along with his regular version. I hate having all kinds of extra programs that I'm never use.

Sleuth's 6.1 is at 32MB and it's very fast and responsive. No issues with battery life. I'm on the 2nd full decharge right now. 1st run died at about 452 with bluetooth on in a E area. Dutty's default is 24 if i'm not mistaken. dutty's has the best battery life so far. I'll make a better report when i wake up, 2am here and I need to be in the office at 8. Night all

It's in Chinese but not WWE. Mixed reviews.
Can anyone confirm that this is a legitimate version or a fake one?

It is ajc2003 rom who produced this Fantastic Rom WM6.1 For Wizard OS 5.2.19521 built 19521 WWE. I think it is in Beta 1. Insead of calling it fake, I would call it hybrid, if it even is. Here is a link to show the progress he is making with it http://bbs.xbeta.cn/forumdisplay.php?fid=11&filter=type&typeid=64

wow that's the newest wm6.1 build for the Kraiser!
That would be so awesome if someone already ported that one for the wizard.

well....what do you think so far??...feedback man!!!

Working great on my Fararaday. GnatGoSplat is the Cooker. He is the one behind this project; [Mar 24, 2008] Boring ROMs 5.2.1629 for AT&T, T-Mobile and now vanilla flavored!
Maybe you can ask him if he would port that build over and make it work with our Wizard

The 19202 I ported to Tornado and StarTrek are WM6.1 Standard. It wouldn't work well on a Wizard because you'd have to use the Dpad for everything, the touchscreen wouldn't work.
I can port any WM6.1, but Wizard should have the Professional version for touchscreen support.

Indeed the latest O2 (MWG) device Zinc II is running based on this build (refer to the pix attached)

just flashed this and also pulled it apart... i'm going to test it for a bit, but this version is basically TNT 19199. splash, customizing screen and version (CE OS 5.2.19202 (Build 191999.1.0.0)TNT) feel is the same too....
we'll see what's up with it, im guessing just a few modules were changed or maybe not even that, but still a good rom just like TNT's. too bad i can't find a real 19202...
btw, 19209 is available now... looks like a port of this:

I am in Las Vegas attending CTIA Wireless show. MS has officially released WM6.1 today at this event. I checked some phones running 6.1 on MS booth and found the OS version is 5.2.19204 (Build 5.2.19204.1.0.1) on Tilt and 5.2.19524 on a Touch Dual. I think the Wizard is just too old hence I didn't see any displayed.

Kaiser ROM Performance Showdown...

Okay, I am in the middle of testing the performance of several roms, cooked & shipped, & will be posting the results here. I will initially be using SK Tools Bench Mark as I have a lot of respect for SKKV Software & the inovation they have brought to WM utility software. I will also be doing some specific graphics testing with various tools.
After my initial testing, I will ber following up with the other various software bench mark utilities & plan on making this the definitive ROM performance guide.
So far I have Completed initial testing on the following ROM's:
1. Shogunmark Death ROM
2. AT&T wm 6.1 ROM
3. Sleuth V3.0 WM6.1
4. L26 Kaiser Diamond ROM 1
More to follow!
If there is a rom you'd like to see shaken down, let me know!

saved for future use

saved as well

& this should do it for now.

good idea! let me know if I can help.

Good idea!
Howabout Dutty's Rom though???

spb benchmark would also make sense because DDB BitBit performance is an indicator that shows if the ROM makes use of the new "drivers".

I'd like to see the shipped 3.28 wwe rom that i'm currently using compared to the others.

That is true & I plan on SPB being one of the next level tests
As for Dutty rom's, I'll test his soon, I'm waiting on his a bit though as I have a feeling there'll be a new Dutty ROM in the near future. I mean it been like a week, as far as I can see he's behind a dozen or so, but I guess L26 & his 4 in 4 days kinda makes up for it, huh?

Want me to do any bud? Just IM me if you do.
