Hi.
Sorry if this is a bit OT.
I've been thinking, that it would be nice to have WM6.1 ROMs in their own section and 6.5 ROM's in another section. Am I the only one?
Just a thought.
My opinion, is that the Kaiser forum is quieting down. Chefs are moving onto newer devices and producing less ROMs. I'm sure when the official 6.5 comes out there will be an influx of new ROMs, but, on the whole I don't think there is enough ROMs to merit a new forum.
The wiki should provide a better overview (if it was more upto date ) : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_Cooked_ROMs.

I like that idea. I'm still sticking to 6.1 and it's just hard to find these ones with all the 6.5 Roms coming out

+1 it's not hard to view the first 1-4 pages and then if you want something old using search, i like it how it is as the most up to date ROMs on first page means less clicking for me

wow a little harsh huh? why the sour response?
Well, Doug is probably coming from some other forum where a new "Which is the best ROM?" kind of post is started each week. It is a natural question, but it gets old after a while.
In the Hermes thread for example, there are multiple kitchens for making ROMs, so everyone and his brother are putting out new ROMs constantly that suit their needs. Asking which is the best is kind of like asking which restaurant is best in San Francisco. There are good ones and bad ones, cheap ones and expensive ones, it is all a matter of taste.
At this point though, with three or so cooked ROMs out for the Kaiser, I think it might be a valid question. Most knowledgable people will have tried all three and come to some sort of conclusion.
Yeah really ! why would this piss anybody off ?

Really, a good way to find out what's best (for you) is to try them out. I know, everyone says that. But they say it for a reason.
A great place to find out before flashing is to hop into the individual threads for the specific ROMS and read what's included in each and what comments (good and bad) have been posted. There's only a few ROMs out at the moment, so that won't be hard at all.
Usually when anyone starts a thread like this they just want someone to throw out an easy "The best ROM is...". I am personally using the HTC stock at the moment. I like it for now, others don't. So, you'll have to decide for yourself.
Have fun finding out!

My issue with the question is that if there truly was a "best ROM so far" available, it would be posted as such and probably stickied. The point is that there is no BEST, even with only 3 of them out there. Each is different.
I've tried all three ROMs and seem to be about the same. Only differences are the apps included, and storage space. Check them out and see for yourself.
Kaiser Roms, which is best?
I spent the last two days testing out all the variants of the ROMS out there, and there are pretty much only 4 English versions available.
Here you go, a nice summary of the results in one quick read, but i've not included the links to the files, some work for you
1. the stock HTC one - RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.exe (uses WM6 CE OS 5.2.1620)
and then 3 or so (because he has sub versions to remove unnecessary programs) variants of the same ROM by Helmi:
2. helmi_Kaiser_1.57.000.1_AKU.0.7.0.Cooked.exe - a cooked version based on HTC WWE version but has newer WM6 CE base code (WM6 CE OS 5.2.1908)
3. Helmi_Kaiser_1.57.00.02_AKU.0.7.0.Cooked.exe - another cooked version of HTC_WWE version but has selectable "activator" directory of cabs that the user can install as desired. Also uses same WM6 CE OS 5.2.1908 as above.
4. Helmi_Kaiser_1.57.00.03_AKU.0.7.0.Cooked.exe - yet another flavour, but this one has virtually all extra programs removed in a good attempt at freeing up as much memory as possible, it also uses a newer version of WM6 CE OS 5.2.1921.
see Helmi's link for all the info. My hats off to you Helmi.
In the end, I decided to go with the standard version as released by HTC, as I didn't notice much of a difference myself. I have naturally upgraded various cabs and installed my ideal base set of apps to get the machine setup as I prefer. My decision to go this way was based on what I prefer and you should really try the ROMS yourself to make the correct decision, I didn't try every program with each version so perhaps i missed things.
I upgraded the Radio to version 1.27.12.17. -(this doesn't appear to make any difference to my terrible radio reception or the random dropping off of the radio link to GSM, neither does selecting the gsm option under band instead of auto). Thank god that I don't use 3G as there seems to be a real problem with the UMTS radio code. I just hope that I don't have a hardware fault, but I doubt it as numerous other people and links reflect similar issues to mine. We can only hope that HTC will release new RADIO code soon.
So, I wish you well in your endeavor to find "the perfect ROM".....
While I wouldn't have posted "best rom" question (as I agree, that is so subjective), that is a great help SAppie! Thanks!
Agree and Disagree
Not wanting to piss everyone off
I think the OP was requesting ROM test result and comparison, like SAppie comment, as I also agree there's no such thing as 'best ROM'.
Now, there're release with WM6.5 and others. Anyone can update this with newer ROM's comparison?
As a newbie in WM myself, some of the thread has 1000 pages .. to read all will be tough, but sometimes that's the only way. The FAQ and sticky is helpful as starting point for me ..
well i tried athineos os, hyperdragon III, life in 3d and now i will try 6.5 beta but so far the fastest is the athineos and it greaat
This is an old topic with no real constructive merit, so I'm closing it.

Guys
some time ago, I used to constantly try new roms. usually Dutty's but have been given a BB so rarely use my old Kaiser.
I want to put a good stable rom on it but am totally confused with all the different ones out there now.
Is there a list of which roms are out and if they are stable.
Cheers
bhayani
Hi bhayani,
Here is the closest we have to what you are after : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=399510&highlight=pureskillz
EDIT: Most ROMs are also listed on the Kaiser Wiki pages.
If you're after stability, avoid most 6.5 ROMs and TouchFlo 3D.
Thread closed as per forum guidelines.
Thanks
Dave
Where do you get the WM 6.5 ROM for the Fuze? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Just head over to the Raphael Rom Development section and there are tons of 6.5 ROMs to choose from....
of course, however, read the first sticky on flashing a rom in detail and do your research.
Officially, ATT is not purported to release a 6.5 for the fuze.
I have to recommend NRG’s Energy 3.0 Phoenix ROMs. I am running the 052209 version and he just released the 052809 update. I have found NRG’s ROMs to be FAST and VERY stable. If this is your first flash, this one might be the best to go with at first, hell it is the best what am I saying.
I can also recommend RRE's rom, which is what I'm using. I haven't tried the other one, because I was too lazy to set up the connections over the weekend myself. The RRE rom is configured to work "out of the box" on the at&t network. Fast & stable. Haven't had one problem with it. When we have another "rainy day" and I can't get outside, I might screw around with some of the others. Give the 6.5 a try, it's (in my opinion) better than 6.1.
But, BE WARNED! The cooks almost always post an FAQ section on their respective rom section because they get tired of answer the same questions over and over and over again....who wouldn't, so, if you ask a newbie question, expect to be ignored or flamed.
give it a try, and have fun!
Hi all!
I'm new here. I bought a new (half year old) kaiser with a cooked rom. First I restored the original wm 6.1 rom. But this is very slow. I searched and found a lot of rom but I can't choice. I search a rom which is small and fast include java and live messenger and better camera driver (too noisy and after sunset it is taking a picture up to 10 seconds!). I found a new display driver under development, on this page. I would like to this driver be part of the cooked rom, if the driver is working property (i hope this is understandable ). So my phone is original non-SIM-locked and the bootloader has cracked. one thing: on the original rom the tcpmp don't start, but with the cooked rom it ran. I don't need wm 6.5 but if that is better no problem.
thanks for your help!
I hope my first thread is created at the good part of the forum
Firstly,
Welcome to the forum! This is the right part of the forum for Kaiser ROM, however ...
Secondly,
You'll need to do a lot of reading, and decide based on that. As a newbies, I did ask this question too, and the answer came back: no recommendation can be given, each must take each' journey.
You can make the decision by reading the thread of each ROM, read the responses, and clarification by other users.
It takes a lot of hardwork to read, and it takes more hardwork for the chef's to cook a ROM that works well! So, my suggestion is to read more and ask less.
Happy hunting
(and mod, please shut down the thread)
ROMs
I can't say one is better than the other. I've tried quite a few ROMs and have settled on TPC Elite, however that is what works best for my purposes. The previous answer to your post is correct, lots of reading and then make the decision on your own.
Once you have HardSPL installed (version depends on the ROM your flashing as I've read), you can flash a different ROM every day like you decide what shirt to wear each morning. It's quite awesome!
thx all!
im on it. i am reading the rom infos since i registered here. but i thinked i found somebody who is minimalist like me
Anryl ROM is great but now anryl stop making ROM for Kaiser
so now I'm stuck with TPC Elite ROM... great ROM. so I recommend this one... try V4.
better you read the tutorial first about upgrading ROM, radio, SPL etc..
if i seen good (direct from hungarian ) the TPCElite needs hardslp v3.56 and i have spl-3.56.Hard CPLD-8 so this is passed. total 100mb ram? its better than oem (85) i will try this
i confused the 3d graphic driver is included?
Try any of the latest ROM out there, then stick to the 1 without problem I almost bricked my kaiser last time flashing hardspl. so be careful.. Dun flash unneccesary to much
Hi,
I am thinking about upgrading to 6.5 from 6.1. I have look at many of the roms posted but don't really know which one I should select. I really want just a pretty basic one that is reliable. Anyone have any insight?
Welcome to forums
Try to ask on your device section
It´s more likely there someone can point you the right direction
Good luck,
Check & Read the chef's Rom threads/posts in the Kaiser section. Happy Flashing
There are is no official 6.5 rom for the Tilt. Therefore the only available 6.5 roms are custom roms and are all "beta " roms. Read the rom descriptions and read ...read .. read the threads and see what people are saying about the rom.
Most 6.5 chefs prefer to make there roms " cutting edge ". Why waste your time cooking something that is safe and middle of the road. M$ can do that ( can you say boring ? ) Why do you want 6.5 ? If that's all you want is basic and stable , stick with 6.1 There are plenty of great 6.1 roms. If you want your friends to "....ooh and ....ahh " over your new pushed to the limit 6.5 rom then be prepared for a little beta testing and bug chasing. But not much , our Kaiser 6.5 chefs have it down.
