rom still has htc home, soft key applet and other stuff that comes in HTC rom.
A clean rom should not have any extra junk like htc home only essential apps. I hope someone will do a real clean rom, this rom still has adobe, audio maanger, bluetooth explorer and java, world card mobile and streaming media and zip. Not very clean

Isnt this the first cooked rom? Maybe we could be a bit less picky and a bit more constructive hmmmm? He does great work on the 8525 or tytn and currently Im using that on my 8525, by far the fastest I have seen. My advice is take what you can get if you dont know how to do it yourself or at least not discourage his work.
well said, austinsync exemplifies the very meaning of contributing member.

Great news guys !!
Seems cooking finally arrive to Kaiser.... Thanks, mate...

Actually it's the second, but still, I don't think it's that mcq3000 doesn't appreciate austinsync's effort. We're all grateful to have the cooks fixing Microsoft's mess. But he does have a point. As far as clean ROMs go, this just isn't one of them. It's not that it's bad, but he just shouldn't be calling it a CLEAN ROM, that's all.
Nice job austinsnyc. A lot of people will enjoy a good streamlined ROM.
Here's my opinion on the "clean ROM" issue a couple people are having. I personally think this is a "clean ROM". I don't believe austinsnyc's intention with this was to create a stripped down base ROM to be used for cooking. I think he put together a nice ROM with all the extra junk taken out that took up space and degraded performance. The items that were left in (and mentioned in the original protest) allow for the same familiar look and feel and to make it possible to use this ROM on a daily basis without the need to install a ton of apps to make it useable.
But, that's just my opinion.
GOOD job ausitnsync!
Please, can you remove the HTC HOME plugin too or make an another version like this but without the HOME plugin.
Taken out Windows Live is without taken Windows Live Messenger out, isn't it? Good job!!!
Smartdialing is handy to call somebody quick, please hold that.
Voicedialing function is also handy, I use it in the car. -> question: you wrote you removed the icon but it's still in Settings.
I haven't the Kaiser yet, but in my Prophet it's in Settings. Is in the Kaiser in Programs an icon too?
I like this cooking
Thanks Austin. I prefer this version of cooking. I think I will keep this. Very responsive..... scrollwheel and button press etc. Thanks for your effort
This looks to be just what I'm after.
However as a newbie, what do I need to do to install this on my Kaiser.
Yes I know there's a load of stickies at the top of this forum, but I'm somewhat lost on which one I actually need.
Thanks.

There are only 4 stickies at the moment, not too much reading, but you really shouldnt try ROM flashing until you have read and understood them all. The Hermes Wiki has more information regarding upgrading/flashing.
@mcq3000 if you think you can do better, feel free to post your own Lite ROM.
@austinsnyc Congratulaions and thanks for your work, How much memory is free after a reboot?
Thanks Wizzard.
I done many an update on my old Mio A701, but not a Kaiser. That's appeared simple compared with the various thread regarding upgrading the Kaiser (and other HTC based products).
Guess what I mean is, the above ROM is still in essence(spelling) a standard one with stuff removed. Do I still need to treat it as a full blown ROM update. I don't want to download various programs to update the ROM unless I need to?
Thanks
Kevin
Thanks austinsnyc !
Thanks for a nice and fast ROM, your timing is perfect I only got my wizard last tuesday I'm looking forward to new builds and releases
Thanks to all involved in the cooking for getting this to work so fast
To end the debate on this I can call it anything I like since I am the one that made it this was a test to see if we can start cooking rom's with the new tools that where made and I was kind enough to share it with the rest of you.... some of you might know that I don't take requests to take this out or that out. I build roms so that I can use them on a daily basis with out having to install tons of apps, all you have to do is set up your personal settings on your good to go. all this rom is showing is that we are well on are way to rom cooking and that where are headed down the right path.

Please can you write a manual how you did this so people can do that at their own.
For example what I do right now at my Qtek S200:
Once I copied al .cab files to a SD Card and keep these cabs on my PC.
When I do a hardreset, at the moment the device want to install the Extended Rom I do a soft reset. Then I've a standard/clear WM system and then I install the Qtek cabs those I want.
Something like this is what I want to do too with the TyTN II. At first the HTC HOME plugin, it's too big, not handy and take too much resources.
Thank you in forward!

there is no EXT_Rom in the kaiser it is simply following a config file to install cabs to the windows directory. the tools to cook roms will be released as soon as they are finished they are almost done untill then no I can not release them as I did not make them I simply test for someone

Nice work, but isn't the SIM Manager kind of a pretty important app?
Hi folks,
I've read volumes of posts about all kinds of wonderful cooked ROMs in addition to the many shipped/oem and HTC ROMs that are available for the Kaiser. It's been a challenge to figure out a way to pick one and I am hoping to get a little guidance from some of you have have tried many of these ROMs already.
I have an AT&T Tilt and I have recently tried the 2nd HTC wm61 ROM (the one that can't reboot itself.) If it wasn't for the fact that it keeps locking up on me (seems like something that happens when an Alarm goes off?) I would probably be happy with it. I like to have the newest stuff, but that locking up (the phone won't receive calls, sometimes the whole thing just seizes up) just won't work for me.
I'm looking for a ROM that is close to a stock 6.1 but with most of the user applications left out so I can choose my own to install. I'd like to find one that pretty much looks like a stock ROM (menus and apps placed in the typcial locations) but just as lite as possible so I can select my own audio player, etc.
Can anybody suggest which of the various cooked ROMs I should look at? I just don't have the time to look at all the great stuff that is available right now, so I'd appreciate any thoughts you have to limit the ROMs I should look at.
Thanks very much for any guidance. Please let me know if I have left out any important considerations you would want to know before suggesting choices.
thanks again,

The only way to find out which ROM is for you is to take the TIME and find out......
try Duttys newest lite ROM, so how it goes
my first flash was Dutty's about a week ago. So far so good...unlike the oem ROM, the phone hasn't lock up on me yet.
I've searched for this topic and any information on it and I apologize if I missed something in advance. I LOVE cooked roms, the only problem I have ever had with them is that they do not work too well with ATT navigator. I really enjoy this program as it gives me traffic and other features. I know there are other programs out there, but I would like to keep this one. With most cooked roms however, it always tells me that it cannot connect to the server. My "Quick" fix is to go into the comm manager and shut off the data connection and when ATT Navigator starts the data connection again, it's all good. I don't get it but whatever.
At any rate, I am just wondering if there are some other users out there who prefer ATT Navigator and if they have found a way to make it work seamlessly on a cooked rom, or a cooked rom that works well with it on its own.
Again I apologize for any redundancies, I hate them too, but I'd really like to have the best of both worlds.
Thank you all SO much for your help in this forum, I'd be stuck with stock if it weren't for you guys and your hard work!

ATT Tilt
Back to stock (For Now )
Try going to Connections in settings. Hit Advanced tab then Select Networks. Make sure that both options say Media Net. Hope this helps.
Thank you for your help. I've played around every which way with the settings there before, but right now I'm just wondering if there is a rom out there with this already taken into account. I guess another question is, why are there so many setting changes like that in a cooked rom?

Try mine--I cooked it and I use ATT Navigator or Garmin which both require the data connection for traffic info. They both work great. I used one on one leg of a 2 hour drive I took today and the other on the way home and both worked perfectly. Use the most up-to-date version of my rom. I also am releasing a new version tomorrow night.
One other thing--always make sure that the proxy box is deselected in the media net connection...That will help immensely.
You asked why there are so many setting changes in cooked roms. Once you try the rom I link to below, you will understand why. The chefs tweak these roms to improve overall performance. The rom below is cooked with the objectives of stability, reliability and performance...which I believe we are achieving. You have to try many roms to find one that works for you. I have tried hundreds of them before I started cooking. I got into cooking to help mbarvian because his device was not working and he has done so much for the community and found out I really like cooking. Anyway, I hope that gives you some insight into why we tweak.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=463284
Make sure you read the first 5 posts...lots of info in there and report back. I have time cold starts of navigator with the quick gps data already downloaded and they come in under a minute inside my house...most of the time 30 to 40 seconds. Garmin is even faster.
Well I'm sad to say but all the ROMs I have tried in the past couple of weeks haven't worked for me...
The story of my ROMs experimentation starts with T-Mobile Vario III and T-Mobile customized ROM. In short, like a worst nightmare! New version of T-Mobile customized ROM, nothing happened, everything was exactly same as with previous version.
Then I finally decided to try couple of WM 6.5 ROMs which worked like a charm but WM 6.5 is beta and half of the stuff in it is unfinished... Back to 6.1...
Than: HyperDragon (a few variants), shifu, Paradox, AthineOS, TPCExtreme, Ultimate-X... Mostly SuperRam ROMs... Hundred of pages in topics, dozens of fixes, black screens, restarts and so on... Applications that I don't need, folders confusingly organized, startup and bootup screens that don't fit to one business phone, black background icons (what's wrong with WM icons with transparent background) and so on...
Currently using stock HTC ROM and it works. It is sluggish but my device doesn't restart and I don't have to install at least 5 programs or fixes to make him work...
My question: Can someone point me to ROM that works without reading through 100 pages of topics and installing fixes for stuff that should work like notification and volume control? I use my Kasier as a business phone and primary e-mail reading device and I can't afford for my Kaiser to be offline for couple of hours (not to mention a day) and don't have time to read thousands of posts of "how-to-fix".
What do I need? Messaging (SMS and e-mail with notifications working), Opera, iGO, working Volume control, Bluetooth and jog wheel to be able to quickly quite my device if in a meeting or to change the volume of speaker when in a call.
I don't mean to disrespect all the chef's around and I do appreciate your work because for most of people around here you make their Kaisers work the way they should work!

If you want you machine to work right off the rip I would stay with a stock rom. while all the roms here are great unforseen prob do come up. While the cooks try to help fix it they do it for fun and have other matters to attend to.

I totally agree...
Anyway, if you look at the way PDACorner organized his post, you'll see that on post #2, there is a list of known bug with links to all fixes... This is really a way of organizing things that I personnally like very much and can save you from reading 1000s of posts for getting the info...
Flashing is for those of us who want to make our phones perfect, the best Apps, the best speed, the very best function and style. We don't mind a little work to or reading to get them " exactly " the way we want it.
I have worked at getting My phone perfect ( also a business phone ) and it is. None of the problems that you seem to think are inherent in every cooked rom.
You sound to me like the stock rom type not the cooked rom type. Do it HTC's way and stick with the stock rom.
There is a huge difference between stock roms and cooked roms. Stock roms are meant to work flawlessly, without bugs and without too many additional software. The default configuration will work, will (most likely) not crash, but won't do anything fancy either. It might also be slow at times.
Cooked roms are made for those who would like to experiment. People who don't mind a crash now or then, and don't mind to reflash every day/week/month (tick the one that applies ).
If i would use my phone for business purposes i would probably stay with the stock ROM or flash a stable 6.1 ROM, like PDACorner's.
Nevertheless there is no such thing as a perfect ROM. Every ROM has it's advantages as well as disadvantages. Live with it; Windows Mobile just isn't a perfect mobile OS, while doubting the fact any OS can be...
I switch ROM's on a regulary basis. Basic functions always work, no matter the ROM. I flash because additional features work better/faster/more stable on certain ROM's than others. But this requires some of your time, to flash and set everything up again.
The fun is that all of this is up to you. If you like to experiment, then flash as much as you like until you find something you like. There will always be certain flaws where you will have to live with.
There is no such thing as perfect ROM! Always remember to keep flashing and keep reading!

Read, my friend. I said they are meant to work without bugs and work flawlessly in a default configuration. You won't hear me say that they always do.
Nevertheless the stock ROM will in most cases do sort of everything the way it is meant to be. The change of finding broken application links or errors from mortscript i.e., is pretty small, if not none. And if these errors do appear, you've obviously bought a phone of bad quality.
This said, i'm not using a stock ROM myself. In that case i wouldn't reply to this topic. I'm someone, just like the rest here i suppose, who likes to switch to the newest, even though the quality might be worse then what i've had. But i'm always in for something new, which you might not be if you're using you phone for business purposes and do very much rely on the call quality, for example.
It's simple really either you stick to stocks or you become a flasher @ which point you will flash untill you find that ROM that you know can be used every day and still carry on flashin to try find a new better ROM if you don't like or got bugz you flash back to your every day ROM......
If it all seems tooo much and your a person who can't problem solve "read" and also put in the time to set up device as you wish then a stock is best bet.
Goverment Health Warning:
After flashing you may suffer from Flashers OCD!!!

Then you have one last choice in picking up a kitchen and learning to cook your own rom, but above warning still applies.
yes
As it has been said, rom flashing is personal preference, please find the perfect one for you whether it is a oem or custom rom through searching and flashing.

I have been searching for recommendations on custom roms and since I am new I do not know if they are up to date.
I have heard of manial 2.5 and 2.1; but do not know what they are.
Also I heard there are custom roms of 6.1 and 6.5 but what is the difference?
To install a 6.5 rom do you need the 6.5 stock rom or can you do it from 6.1 stock rom?
I want performance, stability, speed, web browsing, and landscape slide out usable along with so it will work if I turn the phone and all sensors usable.
I am wishing to getting a head start since I am getting my Sprint CDMA TP2 in a few days. Any TP2 users here that think this phone is good and had it for a while?
NRG (aka EnergyRom) is probably the most popular ROM, i've been using it in various iterations since 12/09. It works well though Sprint picture mail can be problematic at times and I've been unable to disable HTC's texting/sms app (It can be ridiculously slow when you have a long conversation). 6.5 is a little more touch friendly than 6.1 but it's not a huge change. I use NRG's rom with sensity and CHT v2.0(cookie home tab which increases home screen flexibility). XDAndroid is also very nice (I'll switch permanently once they get the headphones working)
I have used nrg rom and have currently been using the superrom.
It's bare-bones and very fast. I had to add some of the .cab's that
i wanted but they are really easy to find. Phone has only frozen
on me like once and i have a large amount of text messages stored
on the phone.

I hope it doesn't have the same flaws as energy rom. I think I will stick with the stock Rom first. Can you list me any internet, text, calling, landscape mode, sensors, physical keyboard etc. any other possible flaws it may have? Is it wm 6.1 or 6.5 layout?
Can you link me to the most up to date mighty rom thread and original maker?
The HTC messaging problem and sprint picture mail problems aren't ROM specific. HTC messaging can take 20+ seconds to load when you've got a ton of messages(it doesn't affect the web browser or email), you can bypass this by clicking all messages before replying to a new text (this opens the default text client rather than the HTC one). There are fixes that are supposed to bypass HTC messaging entirely but they don't seem to work.
The sprint picture mail problem is due to sprint picture mail not really sending pictures but instead links to pictures (you have to install arcsoft messaging and some other files to make it work). Sharky's rom may not have this problem (since it was developed specifically for sprint) but pretty much any other custom rom will.
Sounds like you already got your answer! Try my ROM Check my sig. for my PPC Geeks thread. Seeing as how that site is more geared to CDMA, that's where all my ROM action is.
Are there any other roms that are made for Sprint winmo 6.5?
How much memory RAM does your rom have on boot up sharky?
I just today noticed on stock I am unable to send/ receive text messages but can call and browse the internet. Problem happened after a few installs like flash lite, nfs shift, resco explorer, and maybe sktools cleanup has ran and broke it. So I plan on moving on to a custom rom.
Do any custom roms change radio? Because I HOPE NOT. I don't want an SAR change lol. SAR level change will be bad.
in refferance to sktools clean up.......you have to be carefull what you delete esspecially in the invalid registory entries and values mode......i usualy leave that alone unless i no for sure what i am deleting wont affect the phone.....and also just go to your file explorer/mydocuments/regsrybkp and restore what was deleted....
I couldn't find registry backup anywhere.
got your reply my friend..get back to you in a few hours...
ok...i am no expert...ther are a lot of smart guys in this forum when it comes to ppc's...thumbs up to them...what i no about this is experience because i have deleted 100 things before i learned...i no that if you use the registry cleaner in sktools it will tell you that things are invalid and so on....when they are actually valid....why, i dont no...but first check to see if back up deleted entries is selected to yes.....in your sktools program under tools menu go to settings...then scroll to invalid registry entries and at the bottom of that list you will find that option...the same for invalid registry values...if they both are yes then everything you deleted should be in your files program under 'registrybkp'....mine is under 'mydocuments'/'registrybkp'.....and if the deleted entries are there just tap on each one and they should automatically restore...and last, if for some reason you dont have any backups then a hard reset would be my advice to you.....i hope that helped .....good luck and just keep going by trial and error!

I hope it doesn't have the same flaws as energy rom. I think I will stick with the stock Rom first. Can you list me any internet, text, calling, landscape mode, sensors, physical keyboard etc. any other possible flaws it may have? Is it wm 6.1 or 6.5 layout?
Can you link me to the most up to date mighty rom thread and original maker?

I'm not allowed yet to post outside links, so you'll have to search Howard forums for this:
Touch-Pro2-Tips-Tricks-amp-Registery-Modifications
I have maybe a dumb question. What does a cooked ROM give me, more functionality and features or just cosmetic modifications?
Thanks
All of the above. More stability as well. Phone rarely freezes to the point where it needs a hard reset and also no screen of deaths.

Is there any way I could get manual or at least a list of features for each ROM?
It's either on the rom forum page or you check the rom out yourself. Usually the original poster in the first post will list a list of features and give pictures for their rom. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask and don't forget to thank me if I helped.
