Flashaddicts Anonymus - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Hi, my name is Xtreme and I am a Flashaholic
I have not flashed my device for a week now, but Shep just released his latest ROM which so tempting to flash to. My device is working absolutely fine and I have no reason to flash, but I still really want to.
Please help me

Same here, but I keep switching from Mystic series and Lauzeberry, and RRE, and NATF.
I feel like if I had two raphael's I would keep flashing both of them untill the rom chips fried of the phones.
So i was going to recommend you send me your phone to "help" you from flashing all the the time, but I'm no better off than you...

I am so under the influence of flashing that my buddy just got his Fuze and I am flashing his device too.
Kind of forced him to let me do it.

Count me in on this one. I flash just to flash. Something doesn't seem right with the phone - well might as well reflash it. Phone's working too good, better flash it. Can't find that setting - must be time to flash.

Have fun with it.

I have been flashing Motorolas at first. My V3i got the most abuse and any other Motorolas that followed. The on to my Cing. 8525, flashed till it ran away to the UK lol, Tilt 8925 so many ROMs flashed to it it got a complex for me but works well with my cousin's girlfriend I sold it to and now my Fuze....I am trying not to flash it too much and my time not allowing me to unleash plus the fact that my phone needs to be stable for my job. So RRE 5.8 on it and only recent flash was the Radio 1.12.25.19. I want to try the 1.14. soon..MUAAAAHHHAAHHAAA!

To flash or not to flash...why the heck am I even asking? Ofcourse I'll flash!!!! What? 4.6 is out? FLASH!!!! Curios about ROMeos? FLASH!!!! I have backups all over the place on my microSD card that if I don't like something, I'll just revert back to the previous ROM...we, seriously need to get a poopoo phone...but even then, I'd still try to figure out how to mess with it...

lol...I did have a poopoo phone before my raphael. I had a LG shine, which was alright, but I thought it had potential to be better, so I did what I do best -- mess with it. Sure enough two days later the phone was fried.
After that I finally thought it was time to move into the 21st century and buy a touchscreen and boy-o-boy did I pick the best from the rest. I absolutely love this phone. I am contemplating whether I should buy a Touch Pro or just stick with this phone.

Keep the fuze and buy a TP. That way you can flash twice as much!!

My bad, I meant the Touch Pro 2.
I have the Fuze, but I also like the big screen that touch pro 2 has.
I love the fact that I can flash and customize my fuze to the limit and maybe even beyond. Not sure if that will be the case with TP2. I think it will take a while before devs and cooks get their hands on TP2.

Tempted...
SO...here I am...Rainy Monday, no business to speak of, and contemplating a 6.5 ROM...I already backed up my backup of my backup's backup...About to try it...but something is holding me back...
TODD!!!! Where the hell is your 6.5 ROM DAMMIT!!!!!!!
Pacing back and forth...fingers a-jittery...I wait....and backup.

im proud of you going for a whole week. I wish I was that lucky at this time in my job I have so much down time I do about 3flashes a week. I think I might get the Palm Pre just to kee me from flashing so much but then again I have another touch pro beside me I wish you all luck in holding back.

My troubles are over. I switched over to the other side. I used to be like you, cold sweats, anxiety, trouble sleeping.. now its all better. I became the pusher man, I am in control of my drug. Ever since Da_G released his kitchen to the masses, I got on board. Now whenever and wherever I decide I want a new build, or need a fix, I just cook up some ROM goodness with exactly what I want in it, dirty or clean, and choose the bugs I want to mess with or not. I'm never without a new flash, I am the tamborine man.

learning how to cook in a kitchen was the best thing I've ever done. I love being in control. Too bad he releases new builds 1-2x a week

HAHA lol dude
I guess that is the best way to get rid of this addiction.
Become a dealer!

This flash addict has one slight problem. I keep wanting to flash more, but I can't find a way to auto setup my peoples tab and it is annoying the hell out of me. Anyone know a fix to this one.

Yeah, I'm planning on testing my dope out on some of you soon. I just have to secure my plan of action and get the nerve up. There's so many new cooks out there, I have to make my ROM more tempting for the junkies. Any ideas?

Flash Junkie....
Hi, my name is Nakia and I am a flash junkie .
Okay so I haven't had my phone two weeks...so literally and technically I am a noobie. I found this forum before I bought the phone. You all are actually what made me get this phone... I absolutely love it. I have flashed three times already and tonight I will flash again...my next is Shep's ROM. So far I've had NATF, RRE, and ROMeOS. I am trying to see which one I like and have actually started the process to try and make my own (probably going to take a while). But this is very addictive.

Argghhhhhh :( :( :(

I HAD a perfectly running rom a couple weeks back, was flawless, no crashes, no leaks....perfectly usable.
The problem is now in 2 parts.
The first: I cant keep myself from trying new roms, even if it is hardly any different from what i already have!
The second: I dont remember which was the rom that ran perfectly!
Now i'm soooo screwed, the last couple roms i've tried is such a nightmare to use
It leaks memory like crazy, gets real sluggish, completely comes crashing down. It crashes a billion times, the radio loses connectivity and i have to restart to get it to work again.....arghhhhh!
IF ONLY i was content with what was working and let it be.....damnit!
Now, I got to find some of the older roms and test them out again :-/

Hi San,
Imagine, using Universal just as a phone.
But, no.................
It has to be better than:
Desktop PC
Portable PC
GSM
Phone
PDA
Surf the net
Connect to whatever
Remind to be sub-servant to the other (better) half
.........
So, the never ending quest continues ......
Hey mate, remember we are talking about Universal......

Possible solution.
Right click your rom downloads and go to properties to check the creation date, hopefully this will jog your memory. The gap in dates should hopefully give you a clue.

San, you must be dreaming or you logged in on the wrong forum!
Aren't most of us here love flashing ROM's not because we're looking for the perfect one but because we get high by trying the latest one and posting something like this: "a perfect ROM, extremely fast & stable BUT, ......"
There was never a perfect device or ROM for us, but let me give you a clue.
Which ROM is highly customizable, boots up with 29Mb free RAM even with HTC Home plug-in installed, able to retain 24Mb of free RAM after heavy use, seldom crashes, supports 128Mb RAM, perfectly usable by doing away with progs & tools you don't use anyway? Beat that!
Your guess is good as mine!
Do you mean you're going back to the Best WM5 ROM you ever had? The Darkforces Team ROM!
i have tried many and the one i felt in lovewith was NNcoung ROM. Its fast, stable, no memory leaks, 31+ of ram after reset, flash disk (the best of all since you can install all the apps you want here with no side effects) and vanilla so you can install whatever you want. try it you will see that is the best ROM for universal EVER.

Hi,
Have you used Mtty to format/clean your memory ? (sometimes it helps)
And indeed I should try Nncuong's rom.
Greetings,
Wout
wow wow wow!! So many replies, dont know which one to respond to ;o)))
I'm guessing all the 18538 based roms dont seem to be stable on my device setup. It was one of the earlier builds which worked good for me. The 18538 roms always bombed up on me and i kept reverting back to one of the older roms which was flawless. The problem is, I changed my laptop and i dont have the nk.nbf file which i had with me . So i'm waiting for the coming weekend to start the hunt all over again
Until then, i got to live with this fubar'ed POS :-/ Really gets on to your nerves when it crashes over 30 times a day (not exagerating...all i need to do is, be on a call and try and push a button, and the call's frozen. I cant disconnect the call, the END or disconnect hardware buttons all dont respond)
I guess i'll just jump to beastyleo's rom, only thing that doesnt work is a2dp for me, which is much better than this crash-fest, roach motel rom that i'm currently running on!
Cheers,
San
If you have a G3 device try this: http://www.sym-viet.com/nncuong/UNI_2_11_11_G3.rar
the only rom i saw without memory leak. Havent tried beastyleo's tho.
A2DP is really good, it freezes device but just press play button on your headset to unfreeze happens once per day avg.
I only can say................ we made big progress today
And update is comming soon to your way......................

Universal Is A Useless Device!
Basically, Universal Is A Useless Device!
And, my friends and my relatives think that I have a big head
WHY?​
The basic function of the Universal is Phone. As a Phone it is a useless device even with Windows Mobile 5. It is slow, eats up batteries, has crashes and so forth.
It is very bulky, always has to be carried in the hands. With a belt clip it is immense. It is impossible to use while driving. And, even the voice command is useless as it gets the number wrong most of the time.
So, welcome to Windows Mobile 6, which is not supported by HTC for Universal. It is the same story with Windows Mobile 6 and we are constantly re-flashing as it is full of bugs.
My friends and my relatives tell me that I have a big head, as they call me and that I never return their missed calls. I have painfully explained them about Universal.
So, they say buy a new phone. I tell them that I bought by Xda Exec in the first part of this year!
So, buy a new phone if you want to be in touch with your friends and your relatives. What I do!
I go in July of this year and buy Jasjar. Another Universal!
When I bought it, I told my self that I will only use it for Phone!
Now I own two Universals, several standard and large batteries. Two sim cards and several cases. Lots of different mono and stereo bluetooth and so forth!
Now I am constantly flashing both of my Universal. My friends and relatives still complain about the miss calls. So, now I am thinking to buy a small HTC Phone for just only Phone purposes.
But, I am also thinking to upgrade both of my Universal to 128MB.
I guess, I have to prioritize????
Any betting man or woman out there!

Hi San,
It looks like we are both having the same problems with our uni.
You noticed that it could have something to do with ours being one of the earlier production models ?
FYI i'm now running build 18533.0.7.1 by Nncuong with radio 1.17.
And this is now running without any softresets for 48 hours, which is a new record for my *&@#% uni.
But I still love the thing, It's a hate/love relation
Could you let me know which roms run stable on your uni ?
And do you also sometimes find that it looks stable but after 8 or so hours it seems like the thing is "deteriorating" needing softresets increasingly more often ?
greetings,
Wout
(and also important, after 11 hours battery still at 89%, with light usage of phone )

Woww!!! Looks like you're speaking through my brain m8!!!
Especially the pseudo short-lived happiness with the new roms (18538 roms!) until all hell breaks loose!
As i've noticed, the nncuong roms, the darkforce (earlier) roms worked great for me. Right now, i've flashed thingonaspring's 3.2 rom, hoping this baby will hold up....lets see how it goes!
The mo3ulla rom (confirmed) was a nightmare on my device setup. Was the worst of the lot, mainly because of a serious memory leak problem. Harldy any time, and it drops to a skimpy 3meg free ram status with nothing running!
Was way too crappy to be used for anything at all, flashed over thingonaspring's rom (its a 18533 rom), i'm wishing this one would work fine for me....will post in and let you know how it fares...
cheers,
San
hahaha,
If i'm right your device won't like thingy's 3.2 (it was a softreset fest on mine)
let me know will you ?

Reality Check

If you are happy with a ROM, just sit on it and enjoy its features... No matter how great a ROM is, it has its limitations.
I must have flashed over 100 times, three tilts among a series of HTC phone creations. I guess I am settling down and perhaps I will refrain from flashing for a great while.
I am using Dutty's Hybrid of April 1st. It is by far the most stable and robust ROM I have used. I added few programs to boot and am very satisfied with the way the ROM is behaving.
Just remember it is just a phone... Not a music box, a movie theater, Lost Finder, Can Openner... Primarily it is a phone, and it will never replace your PC or laptop. so just relax and enjoy the summer...
My 3 cents....
Word of a wise man. I may just sit until WM7 and have some good wine.
That is true. I do not flash very often anyways, I just hate having to personalize everything again! I haven't tried that auto thing the new roms have, but I have set it up (I haven't flashed a new rom since I put that text file in my SD card). I assume it will make it less of a pain.

I no longer flash as much as I used to. Started realizing that I was spending more time flashing and reconfiguring than actually using my phone (also why I've chose not to cook on the Kaiser right now). I was on Confused Stu's Mobile Vista v1.1 for over a month (first time I had seen some of my apps start running out of their trials and having to enter in the auth codes I have for them. LOL) before I upgraded to his v1.3 (and to be honest the only reason I flashed to that was I was helping him beta test it and wanted to run it for a week before recommending it to some friends that are wanting to upgrade their Tilts).
I do truely appreciate all those here that do flash and test constantly (AllTheWay immediately comes to mind here... ). But for me, I'm happy to watch the new roms come out, read what works and doesn't for awhile, then move to somethng new when I see something I'd like to have, and avoid minor issues that I know would drive me up the wall after others find them (I use my phone as a tool for work, so while the latest can be cool, if parts of it don't work (or don't work well) then it defeats what the device is supposed to be for me).
I primarily stick to Dutty's too. It's nice when a new version comes out because all the apps are updated or new. That's about the only reason I reflash to a different ROM.
You would not say that if you had the Samsung - here's the link:

I try to refrain from flashing too many times too but sometimes new ROMs are just too juicy to avoid.
Perhaps I may have outgrown the habit a little bit that in the sense I now have preference for what features I look for and furthermore who the chef is.
you are not right
mine is a coffee maker...
a shuriken...
a thing to carry in my pocket...
and lots more
I actually don't mind flashing new ROMS, its more of a hobby. Now that there's UC thanks to Sleuth, theres minor personaliztions to do (eventually i'll take the time to dig deeper into UC for settings, at which point i'll have none).
I like seeing different styles of ROMs, and seeing what types of things people are tossing in. Excited about Schap's!
I too have styoped flashing my kaiser that much I use my prophet for that....
I flashed some roms when I first got my Kaiser but then went back to my personal coocked rom. I've had that on for months but have now changed it to my Throttle rom and it's been on my phone for a week already.
It's a phone and will always be a phone but this android thingy looks intresting ... well mainly because it can be done not that I might get any use of it.
Not me. I'm gonna flash until I find one that will do Everything, including fixing me a drink.
Turkey 101 & Sprite.
That's what I'm sayin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes Sirrrrrrrrrrrrrrr P1!!!
This "Phone" make life easy and when P1, ATW or I find a way for it to make our dinner and clean up our desks then it will be complete! Until then I will be a flashin' fool! Thanks to Dutty, P1Tater, ATW and JimmyMcGee as they have helped me in everyway possible to make Flashin, downloading and all other outlets of this "Phone" very user friendly & I have never created a thread!!!!! So as far as a Reality Check: Not so Much, but I am sooooo looking foward to the summer with my "Phone" i.e. Slingbox, Music Player, video center with my solar charger!

This "Phone" make life easy and when P1, ATW or I find a way for it to make our dinner and clean up our desks then it will be complete! Until then I will be a flashin' fool! Thanks to Dutty, P1Tater, ATW and JimmyMcGee as they have helped me in everyway possible to make Flashin, downloading and all other outlets of this "Phone" very user friendly & I have never created a thread!!!!! So as far as a Reality Check: Not so Much, but I am sooooo looking foward to the summer with my "Phone" i.e. Slingbox, Music Player, video center with my solar charger!

That's funny. I would periodically forget that my Kaiser is a phone when it doesn't ring. Just about two months ago when I upgraded to a Kaiser from a Herald, I switched to AT&T from Tmobile .... primarily for the (3G) data plan and selection of phones of course. As of lately, I found myself flashing less and less because (my opinion) I believe that the roms coming out are now are basically bug and minor fixes, perhaps a minor speed increase to previously cooked roms (which is good). I will perhaps flash again once a rom is cooked that can wash my car, pay my bills. .
Regardless, I think this site is awesome because it brings together some of the most (if not all) creative chefs in the business that would put those in M$/HTC to shame. Just my two cents.
i flashed shaps rom the day i got this phone.. i hadnt changed it until his 6.1 beta. really didnt like it so ive flashed all the 6.1 roms i could find. cant wait for his new build either.
Naturally, the last ROM I've flashed is my own
It's been about two months now and after all that WM6.1 testing, I'm not even sure if I really want to make another ROM once WM6.1 is officially shipped and on the HTC website.
As I've said in mfrazzz's thread, making your own ROM really does scratch the itch.

It already does this... Is called "Texting the Wifey".
Just like several opinions posted here, I will probably never stop flashing my Tilt to the latest and greatest ROM. (My co-workers actually maintain a "flash count" on their white boards )
With that being said, I flashed NoThrills ROM when it came out back in March, and kept it until several days ago until Dutty's Apr 09 release. I will most likely refrain from flashing until someone can best Dutty's latest attempt. That person will not be me because I don't have the attention span to cook my own personal ROM.
BTW, congrats on the Mod bump Alex! Now you get to close redundant threads and spew witty comments like Kyphur!

AT&T ROM update: Should I bother?

This question is more directed at the folks who have done the ROM update and can give a solid opinion about the performance after the update.
In the liner notes to the ROM, it says it improves TF3D performance, adds the HTC Radio app, this, that, and the other... Is it really worth it? My device works fine for me the way it is, but if there really is a noticeable performance improvement or better battery life, then I'll certainly go for it.
Speaking of, where can I find the stock AT&T Fuze ROM?
Well, I did ... but I only kept the original ROM for about a half-day, so I really can't speak TOO MUCH from performance improvements. I just wanted to have the latest official ROM for a while before I start either trying others or building one myself.
As for WHERE? Try here [ http://www.htc.com/us/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=198&act=sd&cat=all ]. That's where I got my updated version.
HTH,
-pvs
That's where you can download the updated ROM. I was asking about where I can download the ORIGINAL ROM. I've already downloaded the update and am hesitant to install it unless it is really worth it... I don't mind flashing my old device, but this is a brand new phone and I don't want to get flash-happy on it so soon. Next thing I know, I'll be in a back alley somewhere, trying to install another WM6.5 ROM just to get a fix.
I used the original rom till the update became available and Ifelt it was much better. Albeit I do get more errors for some reason (usually net caller ID, but that's normal).The radio works like a charm and the performance did feel like it got better.
The upgrade is a 90% good choice imo.

Ahhh, sorry about the confusion. As I see it, you have two choices ... you can dump the ROM you currently have, and rebuild it as a flashable ROM, or you can look at this Wiki Page, and see if yours is already listed. My original ROM (1.95.502.5) is listed, and it has a DL link (although I haven't tried it.)

I know what you mean . I have just moved here from my old Hermes, so sad it gave up its ghost with a broken digitizer. I miss the scroll wheel SO MUCH, although the Raph IS growing on me. I had flashed that old device so many times while I was learning the basics of cooking. And once I got that done, I was thrilled with it for several years. I am not so keen to begin the cycle again, myself, although I DO feel it coming. But flashing a stock ROM isn't quite the same, and it doesn't come close to voiding any warranties. I would highly recommend you take the plunge, just to stay current, if nothing else.
And when the time comes, starting with a basic shipped ROM will be the way I go, anyway, as I begin cooking up something new for myself.
Anyway, I hope this helps. Good luck, whatever you decide.

The fuze is twice as powerful as the tilt. Its well worth it.
You just beed to flash a custom ROM.

When I first got my Fuze it wasn't up to par with my Tilt, but after I learned the device and cooked my own ROM, I love it.
I stayed with an older WM 6.5 build because it seems to be stable, but I haven't tried any of the new builds that have come out.
There are some chefs releasing new versions all the time. I just cook for my personal consumption as I don't have time to support a ROM on this forum.
HUMMMMM i haved NEVER cooked so i just might take a read read (lol) and try it

Start here and you'll learn in no time.
Hmm, have you looked at the clarity of the screen??
There are a LOT of advantages over the tilt:
* Ascetically the fuze is way more beautiful than the tilt
* The Fuze has a 5 row keyboard (though AT&T removed the control key)
* The LED flash makes for a great Flashlight with the use of an application cooked into most roms (use mine many times a week on average)
* Stylus is magnetic on the fuze (and also a sensor for detecting if the stylus is removed)
* form factor is a little bit smaller than the tilt
Only real advantage i see is that the tilt screen well... tilts
But thats the only thing missing if you ask me.
I never heard of a replacement upgrading to a better phone, consider yourself very lucky! (and if you aren't happy, sell the phone on ebay and buy a tilt, pocketing the extra cash!)
just wanted to say im happy with the fuze thanks to all the replys !!! im currenty running it with NATF V4.7 rom 6.1 slick as well. gonna hunt for another stable fast good ROM any sugg let me know as now i like this one thanks again all !!

Try some 6.5 ROMs, I think you'll like them.
Glad you're enjoying your phone!
Is your old Tilt broken? Did you get the replacement through warranty or through insurance? Odd that they wouldn't want the Tilt back. What is wrong with it?
Give one of the 6.5 roms a try, you WILL love em...I know I like the one I'm running (RRE's). The new "finger friendly" icons, larger easier to use menus. I hardly use the stylus anymore. I've been using windowsCE/windows mobile all the way back to the Dell X5 days, so it's taken a couple weeks to get use to not trying to click in the upper left corner for the start menu with the new 23034 & up interface.

yeah ill check that rom out u have on your signature. I also say a rom called Energy rom as well probably check that one out as well

Are you a flashaholic?

How often do you flash your phone?
For me, its everytime a new version of the rom i use gets released.
Off topic
Thanks to XDA is that I´m still loving WM!
If not I´m sure I moved to another platform
I have flashed so many times I don´t even remember
I usually flash when I get bored, or the ROM starts slowing down. Or whenever I flash my own ROM, I realize it is awful and go straight to xda for a new one
Been hooked for years But now I'm flashing on Android thanks to xda!
I've lost count as well. But the thing is I find myself instinctively returning to certain roms, even if it is a much earlier rom. It's like they have a personality of their own. ( I hope I don't sound too wierd here ... plus I have a life).
You also become an expert on how fast you can get all your software and themes up and running should the new rom rain on your expectations. It's like a pit stop in F1.
I started flashing about a week ago, and I tried 3 custom ROMs from XDA.
Im gonna try cooking a custom ROM myself soon too, because I have very specific requirements for my ROM
However, I'm NEVER going back to my original 6.1 ROM. 6.5.3 is the way to go, even though I can't use my old manilla themes anymore.
Everything improved by an awful lot.
Also, i think this post is a good moment to say thanks to all the chefs that create custom roms for us!
i only started flashing roms the other day, i was doing one a day but have settled on one that seems to be holding my battery a lot longer than the others i used so im gonna stick with this one (xannytech's EVOLUTION 1.1)!
also love this site and the "USE THE SEARCH" mentality, its awesome.
I don't have a *twitch* problem. I merely *twitch* need my *twitch* fix. I can *twitch* stop anytime, *twitch* do you have some*twitch*thing for me *twitch* to flash? *twitch**twitch*
Well to be honest I'm not sure how many roms I've flashed. I know its hundreds!!
I've 2 devices so I have one for everyday use and one for testing/flashing. As a mod I like to know what I'm talking about so I tend to flash nearly every rom which comes out for my device (HD). I'm flashing daily . However as more and more chefs have appeared this has become more combersome so I try and limit this to 3-6 chefs unless something really catches my eye (new build etc). So I'm only flashing when one of these chefs release a new rom.....which still seems to be daily or every other day...lol . Then I choose my preferred rom and flash it onto my everyday use device

lol, very good.....though I would get that *twitch* sorted out very soon......think I heard another rom was released!!!
for me, it depends on how much time i have, and if the new version of the rom has stuff that i am really interested in. otherwise, i'd just skip the update
There is no way to compehend how many times have flashed... Excalibur tryed all ROMs made joint project ROM every minor tweak a flash, Kaiser same deal yet now lives with stylez black v.5 once you have a ROM on there that is to your preference then flashing another isn't a necesitty, now using Touch Pro flashed the ROMs that take my fancy now back in Kitchen... Flashing aboit 2 x a day as need phone set up.
Spelling whack just had a surge and net not working used to inline spellcheck
So yes i still have the bug but not as bad as used too lol

I think constant flashing soon starts to ware you out. People have other committments as well which can eat up time. I've a family so my time is limited, but when I can I still flash, tweak and play. With time the bug does start to decrease, but only a little bit
I am definitely a flash junkie. Not a week goes by and im flashing another ROM. No other platform so far is this hackable\customisable\tweakable.....you get the point.
i flash mine everytime nrgz28 comes out with a new rom. he makes the best in my opinion. i also try others but i always find myself going back to energy roms!!!
