Help me with choosing good ROM - Touch Cruise General

Hi there,
Simply, I need help and advice regarding Polaris ROM's
I was looking for answer in ROM Development section many times(FAQ too), but all topics are so confusing(disorganised, confusing and uninformative) that I'm losing my sanity.
I was trying few roms(like panosha think), but unfortunately dissapointed me(bugs, unresolved issues etc.)
So what i need is quite simple in fact:
-fast, stable 6.1 or 6.5 version
-bug free or at least little bugs
-fully working radio(bluetooth, wifi, 3G and GPS)
-need default microsoft keyboard
Don't need gizmos, although nice GUI is a good point to go.
Thank you in advance.
tl;dr
Help me finding best ROM

go to htc support page scroll down to the bottom of the page, enter your phone's serial number and you will download the newest official ROM, with update utility included.

a good rom for polaris..
It's been more than 1 year that I use the rom called 3LIT3 (FULL VERSION) on both my 2 polaris... they work very well, 3LIT3 is really a fantastic / fast/ bug-free rom. I have the "3LIT3 V FULL WWE" VERSION.. and I can guarantee for this one only. I know there are the VI, the VII and the VIII versions of the same rom, but for sure number V is absolutely perfect. Everything including bluetooth, gps, external speaker, battery, wi-fi ecc ecc is working very well, without bugs...and including footprints!!
AH I FORGOT this rom is based on WM6.1 plus manila2d of course...
You got just to update the google maps cab..and your poleris will FLY!!!.

@faredino
thx for the tip this rom ist the best rom i´ve tested
i had m-amines, which is also nice but not as fast as lit3
i had pcars 6.5 rom, which is good but very slow (i think 6.5 is´nt the right thing for polaris)
and since a few days the lite3 VIII, which blew my mind...very very good work a pitty that he stopped working on it
so if you need a good stable rom take lit3 !

How about 6.5 recommendations?
So what's a good bet for WM6.5?
Was using pcarvalho's latest (24DEC09) but it has been freezing up & generally running very laggy. My Orbit 2 is going to my wife so I need something friendly as it gets whilst also reliable & quick. WM6.1 comes over too strong on the 3LIT3 ROMs...

i just tested pcars and kostas, but haven´t found a better rom then lit3, it got not the nice appearance of wm6.5, but i prefer speed and smoothnes

Tried, tested and i can confirm that.
Stable, bug free with nice gui.
Thank you.

3lit mmm, too slow for me.. too much stuff, probably many of them will never be used.
obviously you pay your many stuff with -speed!
a 400mhz processor can perform more than that, it have to, with 3lit I felt like going back to omap 201mhz ppc generation...
I have two Polaris and on both I have returned after many tries to an official 6.1 ROM, with radio updated, and tomtom7.
I think it's all what you need, a fast and crashless rom,
for me it's just all I need

Recently I have upgraded to 3LIT3 VIII FULL ITA....
...definitely my fav's ROM!!!!!!!!!
Will thank chavonbravo for the rest of... the days of my both polaris!!
If you're also using that rom, please consider a donation to the great mind of chavonbravo!
Also..anyone has changed the rom's keyboard? i think that is the only "not really perfect" issue of 3LIT3_VIII.. but it is overall GOOD anyway
Bye everybody,

The Same Question-which Is The Best Wm6 Rom

Dear All,
I am again asking the same unanswered question. Which is the best ROM. When we say best we do not mean a ROM overflowing with so many additional software. We mean the one which is the factory one or like it and the one from which all the bugs are removed. No additional softwares needed as they can always be installed.
Can someone also tell me what were the bugs in the Ingenetics or the base ROM that everyone say he cooked and removed them. Can we have a list. Please.
Regards,
Alber

well even that can be answered. But dear I just wanted to know out of all the available ones which one is 'comparatively better' now you can say based on what? so if you could have read my question it said it would a clean and fast one with no overloads and not to mention nobody would like the crashes. So like you knew that you cry when sad and smile when happy, the same way the good is the one which is fast and doesn't have bugs, was it that useless a question.
Anyways I am sorry if you got irritated at that. My intention is to learn and share from this forum

I am no irritated I just tell you that you will not get any precise answer. Everybody will praise what he knows and uses. Also people have different priorities.
It always occures here that people come and ask what is best... There is no answer. Different people have different favourites (TNT, XDA Mobile, WRCX, NBD etc.). There are also people who says that WM5 is better than WM6.
Just read and choose and if you do not like reflash.
You will not get any final answer. The world is not so simple.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324632
No two ways about it, it is by far the best rom availible. i have tried them all, this one is the least bugged with just the right combination of added goods that most people would use.
Some of the other roms are faster, but then again they are missing some vital modules that the Mfrazzz rom has.
try all or most of them and see which one meets your needs, they come in different sizes and flavors, so enjoy
yes you should try all of them by ur self , and test them by your self , some of them may satisfy you at last
Me personally tried NBD (bluetooth handset is not working, problem with hang phone), tried TNT (missed calls, no voice dialer) and now on XDA Mobile 3 and so far missing voice dialer as well.
I tried Nottoosmart.
its simple but then i saw that after I run it for some time it takes up all the program memory and freezes
the mfrazz's rom xm6r3 is good but then it hangs sometimes at the boot and the times goes back to 2006 after every reboot
for me tnt is the way to go no question about it. i use this for voice dialing

Thanks...i was looking for that!
It was the only thing missing in all wm6 roms.
i loved the Black diamond 2 and TNT version 5 is the best
I have tried alot of roms
I like the Touch No Evil Rom. It never crashes and is super fast. It has everything I need and use. I have not found any thing wrong so far. The only thing is it does not have the Cube but I dont use that anyway.

WM6.1 is soooo laggy

Every wm6.1 rom I flash, have the same result: lag! (I DO a hard reset after each new rom). Tried Dutty's, orginal HTC's, Alex, etc, etc.
Sometimes wm is running smoothly for a while, but most of the time the lag is terrible, sometimes the delay is even more then 5 seconds!
Anyone have the same experience (and more important: anyone who knows how to fix this)?
Very strange... I have not had any issues so far and I have flashed every WM 6.1 rom that has been posted thus far. What radio version are you running with the WM 6.1 builds?
Tried all tree radio's. Never had problems with sound, camera, gps, but every time 'the lag is back'.
Is it possible it has something to do with a combi of pagepool and cache-settings?

Try running Alex's 1.62 AT&T build. That thing is pretty freaking fast Got a great SPB benchmarking score of 436 according to my testing.
Is the 1.62 rom WM6.1?
Can I use an ATT Tilt rom on a non ATT phone (Dutch MDA Vario III Tmobile)? Never tried that, because of all the warnings about ATT and non ATT phones/radio's/etc.

No it is not. But it does have a lot of updated drivers & Bluetooth fixes. Check the official post regarding this.
It was running very smoothly for me, even the non cooked one.
This ROM was actually released on HTC's website as an official update to the Tilts.
I agree, it is so laggy i went to Alex's 6.1 because he does great work but i did notice it was very slow and would lock up most of the time. i tried all the radio's same issue even tried just clearing out my phone thinking it was a program causing a conflict and same issue. i ended up going back to Alex's 6.0ROM and all is good in the hood once again
btw if you real this ALEX you rock
i hope that this is not some "FLUKE" bug that happens to a small amount of people and wont get reviewed by the higher powers as a issue.

Lagging? Are you comparing that lag to original ATT roms or one of Dutty's/Sleuth/cooked roms? compared to dualtouch v4(dutty), ive found some lag as well, but not compared to ATT's, blazing compared to ATT...
If you've try many roms already? Can I ask are you using a task manager?
Tweaks; cooked roms are already tweak to better suit them.
I am using Dutty's 6.1 Official, and I love it to death. I had used his beta and it had a lot of bugs and was laggy so I had to revert back, however his new rom is gorgeous (THANKS DUTTY), it is very smooth and other than not being able to soft reset through the power switch, there is no lag and I am using radio 1.58.26.20
Oh its a tilt
I agree, I tried three 6.1 ROMs including the latest Dutty's ROM which I am currently on... and they all lag...
Also notice a problem when I go to the call logs screen and press the red endkey button to go to the home
thanks for this thread. I was considering flashing, but after this I'll stick to my stock rom till official upgrade. I am on wm6 t-mob uk and after tweaks I cannot see the reason to flash anything else anyway. the device is rock solid and snappy enough.
cheers
bro
stay out of the kitchen...
i dont know why a thread like this is created... utter nonsense if you ask me. ive only noticed all positive changes with wm6.1 with no lag... in fact... my video is exceptionally faster on the newer roms. especially sleuth or duttys. a lot of these chefs pour their heart into these meals... if you cant enjoy them... too bad, cause some of us love what they do and appreciate how much more awesome our devices are with each new build. keep up the good work guys... youre heading in the right direction... there is LESS lag... considerably

I can not agree more. the stock rom I have, WWE Tytn II , equipped with tons and tons of cabs I found here is stable at 99.9 %. Though Dutties Rom gives an almost 1800 VSbenchmark and mine only 1392, I do not complain.
Videoclips lag, though I found out that theyd DO play better when using the "X" bottom before, stopping all open applications.
I am eager to flash, but only when a guaranteed stable and quick cooked 6.1 ROM will offer me further a fuzz-free environment.
EDIT 1: No, I have no lag what so ever.
EDIT 2: I owe a lot of respect for all chefs spending plenty of hours on their work (hobby?) helping this community. I just wait for the one who might have "the ultimate ROM" .Fair no?
(i am playing with the 3D.dll 's further on meawhile hehe)
Keyboard\Screen lag
I promise that lag will be gone if you flash mine
Commercial for myself but I fixed the screen\keyboard lag
My base is latest Vodafone 6.1 ROM.

well, there is a reason why people are complaining: all WM6.1 ROMS (till now) are considerably slower than the recent cooked WM6.0 ROMS.
At least according to "objective" tests like SPB Benchmark and VS Benchmark the WM6.1 still can't catch up the WM6.0's..
So the feeling of lagginess (does this word exist?) is understandable.
But our cooks are working so only a matter of time???.

Maybe utter nonsense for your device, so be happy with THAT in stead of putting words in somebodies mouth.... On my device there IS lag... and I DO APPRECIATE THE WORK OF ALL THE CHEFS! Threads like this have the intension of helping people with problems with upgrading.
Having said that.... all others: thanx for the advice sofar. Any suggestions on pagepool & cache settings fixing the lagproblem on some devices are welcome And for all the chefs I'm gonna use the positive words of Michaelr219: keep up the good work!!!
hello again.
sorry if it's going to be an offtop, but after reading Your posts some things have crossed my mind.
back in the days when I was quite happy owner of vario II (wm 5 out of the box) exciting thing have happened. when I was browsing through these forums I've spotted a wm6 rom for my device. that was something. just like jumping from w95 to xp on pc. almost everything seemed to be different. I was using black flavour (best regards jasjamming wherever You are now Mate) with various versions. flashing addiction was quite understandable then, as we were improving our devices A LOT.
now with vario III I am wondering why people are trying hard to fix things that are not broken? I am not bashing anyone's work, I have a lot of love for all the so called cooks for their free contribution, but I don't understand what is this fuss all about.
as I read more and more I learn, that 6.1 is not that great at all. ppl are asking how to switch off threaded sms, pie is still unusable(ish) and now the info that roms are slower than 6.
so can please guy who said to stay out explain to me what's so good with those 6.1 that I cannot have with 6? I am not flaming or whatever, maybe I just lost something while diggin' through all those threads.
I also said, that imo it's not a bad idea to hold on for offcial roms given official way, as they are tend to be more solid and complete.
just my five cents

test post test rom here
thanks
Different ROMs have different reasons to be liked. It depends what you want from a ROM as the cookers have put different things in them. All of them are very good.
It's best you check out each of the ROM forums and see what best suits you.
Personally, I've installed quite a few of them to find which suits my needs the best.

My recommendation is that you READ and LEARN as most of all here made it when entered this site by first time, that´s the best way for you to know what is the best ROM.

It's your choice
Take Tomal's V8.2 and be happy.
Or simply try all self.

Same thought
try this
try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421102 not bad at all stable so far and fast
It does not exist yet
<Sorry for lengthy one.. but its one of the FAQ time and again asked and clarified>
Seriously..
A perfect super ROM that is WM6 or WM6.1 for Universal does not EXIST as device is not made for WM6 and above, whatever available is simply ported and made to work for Universal by tweeking the stuff.
The best ROM for Universal is undoubtedly the one that came with it.
I own Uni since 2005 and really have not faced any issues with the stuff that came with it and everything just works as expected.
Everything else simply works for a period till another version out or little longer till you get equally frustrated with it, something or other will be wrong with any of the cooked ROMs for simple reason that the cookers may not allocate equal amount of time/resources for developing and testing like M$ .
If you dont bother about the missing/nonworking features of a ROM that is cooked that contain most of your requirements, simply flash it and use it.
Feedback the comments/findings back through this forum, if cooker finds time or feels need to fix them, look for another version from them.
In my observation since I joined (last two months) and comments by experienced users who joined this site years back almost same and the efforts are to make Uni live longer and keep the enthusiasm of cookers and their passion to share their work and knowledge. Nothing is being claimed in response except some good thank you messages and encouraging notes and small donations to keep them singing. So its all your call as rightly disclaimed by cookers
I am not agree that "The best ROM for Universal is undoubtedly the one that came with it."
Perhaps could be the more stable but not the best, as wm6.1 comes with a lot of new features to take more advantage of devices.
Wanted: ROM WM6.x for Uni with support for Scandinavian keyboard and BT Sound
Hi all,
After scanning the forum for this topic in the last 2 days (it has been raining all weekend, and the wife is going horsbackriding, nothing else to do...), I decided to put up this post.
A lot has been said about "What is the best WM6.x ROM for Uni". I am still running on the original ROM and WM5. No complaints. Only this that I would like to see improved is the available RAM for storage. When installing software on my Jasjar, I always install on SD when possible. But som software is just screaming for installation on the device. And this makes installing new software always a challenge.
Right now this is what I have in memory:
Storage: total 43.50, in use: 39.04, free: 4.46
Program: total 50.16, in use: 28.78, free: 21.38
So I started wondering if one of the new WM6.x ROMs would improve my memory problem? I use Opera, skype and msn the oftest of all default windows programs. All other are the ones I purchased/downloaded like GPS/navigation, mediaplayers, weather, alarm, backup and wifi scanner, among other.
What I find most important when going for a new ROM, is better memory, BT sound (don't need a2dp, I have a Jabra BT8040 that does the trick for me in mono), and Scandinavian keyboard. Oh yes, and real time push email. Guess this means I need at the least AKU2.
Now this last one I am not sure if the keyboard option is supported per default. I use the sym button to get access to the special characters like ø,æ and å.
That my Jasjar gets the look of a Touch Pro 2 is a nice bonus, but not a must ;-). I am so pleased with my Jasjar, even after 4 years of daily usage, I still am convinced that there is still no worthy alternative available. Even though I have been flirting with the Touch Pro 2....
So guys, what are my options?
Well the options you have
1) use the same rom LOL
2) Use the rom's here some of them have more free storage...
i'm flashed to thingonaspring v1.1 which gives you 40.69 mb free memory after flashing.... And the one with most free storage memory is contullas rom... but after flashing to this rom you would need to do doc format every time you reflash another rom and it is bit old build now...
3)Or simply get bigger sd card
4) well about the looks there are lots of GUI software like WAD2, rltoday, home++ , SPB mobile shell, etc so use some of those themes for new looks..
Been using Tomal 8.81 for a while and so far fast and stable, recommend.
I can recommend Tomal's 8.5 too. I'm using it for several months without problems: fast and stable.

WM6.5 and Manilla

Hy guys!
Yesterday I tried to install 2 different Manilla ROM's based on WM6.5! (Shifu_V13, Solace_V3.1) Everything worked great except the usability!
Is it possible that the TyTn2 is far too slow to handle Manilla/Wm6.5? Everything is dead slow, program loading/closing, Home.Screen.Scrolling is a lucky punch everytime. When I slide, I only see where I scrolled after loading menu, so no exact scrolling possible!
I already swapped to HTC_Original WM6.1 back, cause everything runs smooth and stable, except the new design, which i would appreciate even more!
Even the Booting is damn slow, stopped approximatly 2 minutes! The Wm6.1 is up in under a minute!
Are there any suggestions or do I have to buy me the HD Touch to experience Manilla/WM6.5?
best regards
Rekoo
Both ROMs you mention are 6.1 and way faster than stock ROMs so i'd say something else was the issue...........
Isn't this usually a matter of getting the right radio for your device?
From what I read is that speed issues are usually solved by trying out another radio.
Both are wm 6.1.
Why dont you try wm 6.5 roms from here...there are very great, fast, and smoothly roms, with chome and manila. (you have to discover the best spl/radio combo for you).
k, sorry my fault!
Is there a rule for the radio's, like the higher the number the better/faster they work? Or is it trail&error what works best with the device?
What are these POLARIS and NIKI Radio's?
Can I also use them or are they only for the newer devices like HD?

It is all trial and error different radio firmware works differently with different roms/spls/ and in different areas. Pick one that works for you.
Go to Ultimate radio thread and read, all radios there are compatible with Kaiser and 6.0 or 6.1 roms. The 6.1 rom radios appear to all be compatible with 6.5 roms.
Polaris and Niki are just the phones that the radios were ripped from.
You will want to post in they're threads regarding this issue and see what the chefs recommend instead of opening a new thread.

There is no such thing as "best ROM"
All will depend on your personal needs.
What is best to me not necessary should be for you.
Said that, enter to ROM section and read a bit to know users comments, then make your choice
On my opinion Tomal 8.2, 8.5 and 8.9 are the more stable and great performance, but it´s up to you to find out your "best"
Or...............
Or you can check every members signature where they proudly announce their favourite ROM!
but i dunno whether my jasjar is suitable for 64 mb rom or 128 mb rom
If Uni is original (never sent to upgrade Ram) you have and original 64Mb Universal
can i downgrade to my original ROM DOPOD 900 from factory?
or there's problem if i do that?

Cooked ROMs​
Best ROM for iMate JasJar (HTC Universal, Exec, ...)
I would have to agree that Tomal's 8.5 is the best of the posted ROMs. Not perfect, but it is very stable, good performing, yet fresh enough to run most new apps.
Above 8.5, there's all this annoying stuff in the UI, and performance and memory usage take a hit. Below 8.5, certain niceties like drag-scrolling disappear, the dialer looks ugly, and fundamental apps such as Microsoft's Facebook won't install.
There are a few non-Tomal ROMs out there - one of them, a WM5-based version, is really very good, and I used it for weeks. But for me, 8.5 with WM6.1 is the best compromise.
It looks like I'll be staying with this ROM, and staying with my iMate JasJar, until a similar or better big-keyboard big-screen phone running Windows Phone 7 becomes cheap enough.

First I installed luca16thebig's light ROM 6.1, I found it really awesome as it was really fast and stable in the beginning. But as the time passed I realized that my battery is draining a lot quicker and also the mobile started to RESTART itself once every hour. The last thing which forced me to reflash the device was when I wanted to configure GPRS and no matter what I did it didn't want to connect.
Afterards I installed "TML v8.7.1 21028 regular 64MB", and so far everything is working fine, though its just been 2 days. GPRS is good and battery time is better.
Things I am not liking is the non availability of MMS inside the ROM and also I would really want to disable Auto Time Sync feature somehow.
Apart from this I believe it is so good. But I will flash "TML89_WM61_21048_REGULAR_64MB" or "TML89_WM61_21048_LITE_64MB" tomorrow just to check whats new in there
I hope it helped someone
Have a look through ROM thread, you can disable timesync by deleting from REG startup. MMS can be downloaded as cab, use Dutty's - I've posted it somewhere.
Thanks for the prompt response, I am using Arcsoft - do you think Dutty's is better ? I am going to search the thread for Timesync registry hack..
