Are you happy with the speed of your ROM? - General Topics

If so, what is it?
Im currently using kwbr topix 3.5.10 and its really slow.
Most menu selections take ages to appear.
Im looking for a speedier ROM, Id be happy downgrading to 6.1 if that would speed things up...
Any suggestions?

the you're using is running Sense 2.5, which was made for th HD2. It's true that it isn't running very smoothly. You could try flashing a WM 6.5 rom with Sense 2.1 or even Touchflo 3D. For example, try this rom if you don't care about Sense but do like WM 6.5. It is supposed to be the on of the fastest wm6.5 roms with Touchflo

I´m quite happy with mine (see signature for details)

I'm very happy with mine at last. I downgraded to winmo 6.1 using the Kenia BlackNew III Rom. It's using Sense 2.5 and is still very fast and stable. It haven't been this fast since I bought it

accountabc, thanks for the reply.
I'll try downgrading to Sense 2.1.
Someone also suggested that I use Task 29 the next time I flash...
Thanks.

Excellent suggestion.
I've had this Rom for about a day now and its brilliant.
Its really fast in comparison to my previous Topix 6.5 Sense 2.5
Thanks.

Best 6.1 Rom for wm 5 phones

I have xv6700 and wanted to know what was the best 6.1 rooms for this phone that didnt have any issues.
depending on your bootloader give my 6.1 rom a try ive had no issues with it
where do i dl yours from?
which bootloader is your Apache?
which ever is the best one for my xv6700 but i do need to back up my wm 5 thats already on here... what software is best for backing everything up
bump.... still need a 6.1 rom that works good with verizon 6700
I think it's wm 6.1 21054.
is this the bootloader or version of the rom i should be looking for
i recommend mr4r4n's 6.5 roms found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502418
i ask for 6.1 not 6.5.... its prob gonna make my phone real slow anyways
he cooks 6.1 roms too but his 6.5 roms are really nice not slow at all and the titanium interface is great for this phone where its low on memory and would have trouble running m2d or spb mobile shell 3

i agree, im using his 6.5 and its much better then 6.1 and forget M2D, now that's a real memorry killer, it was designed for the newer phones that have 3 times as much as the good old ppc 6700

Recommended Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM

Hi,
I've seen a lot of recommendations for various WinMo 6.5 ROMs and to be honest as this is my first Windows Mobile (HTC Touch Pro) I'm a complete novice and all of the different options confuse me.
What I'm basically after is if HTC announced that they were giving a free 6.5 ROM upgrade to all HTC Touch Pro owners, I want the current unofficial ROM that would most closely resemble that, if that makes sense.
So pretty much a basic Windows Mobile 6.5 build that works with the Raphael.
What would you recommend?
Da_G's clean rom for 6.5 is the closet you're going to get to stock with all Raphael features working link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=513605

Wonderful. Thank you that's a great help
And if I was feeling adventurous, what would you recommend?
Many thanks,
Chris
I've been running RRE's rom and LOVE it. The nice thing is that if you back up your data, flashing a new rom is an hour process to flash, reinstall everything, so, for me, it's one of those "rainy day" things I play with when the weather is bad.
here we go again with the "best rom" threads........

TouchFlo 3D version 2.5

Do anyone know when TouchFlo 3D version 2.5 is coming out?
Looks nice!!!
Tom Topaz Roms have the 2.5 manila, however it is very buggy... I would wait until it is released in an official rom for a future phone such as the firstone that is comming
But when is the release?
And when it's released in a official rom,it is for topaz too?
Or just future phones?
More than likely, it will be released when WM6.5 is official.
will HTC's WM6.5 upgrade for TD2 owners include manilla 2.5?
I hope so Cause I don't like the standart 6.5 Homescreen..
Just wondering, would htc sense also be officially released for the topaz in the future cos it looks alot nicer than TF3D? It runs on hero and the specs are almost identical.
mate, just do a quick search in the rom development section you will see it is being looked at, but not with any success just yet...

HTC Sense rom?

May be a noobish question but ive searched and searched and couldnt find anything.
Is there a rom already made or one in development with the HTC Sense instead of manilla?
Thanks for the help
HTC Sense is for Android, not Windows Mobile.
Sorry.
Not a true statement. Here is the link http://www.htc.com/uk/press.aspx?id=111998&lang=1033
i think porting SENSE UI to VGA and non capacitive devices like the raphael would be VERY difficult.
the HD2 or Leo is a whole different animal. porting the HD2's Manila has been done. but porting HD2's SenseUI would be quite a project.

Sorry, I hadn't realised they're now referring to the new HD2 version of Manilla as HTC Sense. I assumed what was being requested was the Android HTC Sense UI on Windows Mobile. From what I can see, HTC Sense for Windows Mobile (on the HD2) looks (from the videos) to be Manilla 2.5. If I'm wrong in this, please ignore me
To get the Windows Mobile Version of HTC Sense UI is also known as Manilla 2.5. Currently, Manilla 2.5 is only fully functional on wvga phones.
But worry not. Manilla 2.5 is in development for vga devices, and is near perfect.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493657
that is a link to a ROM with Manilla 2.5, same UI as the HTC HD2(HTC Leo)
If you want an authentic, Android Sense UI, you might want to do a search for Android on Diamond, should be the first result. Its not fully functional, so the Manilla 2.5 ROM is your best bet.
I loved using that Manilla 2.5, I had to move away from that ROM because the chef was using winmo 6.5 buld 23017, which I really did not like compared to the newer builds.

Is this the "next" Sense Modification?

Hi,
i've seen this Pic at Modaco and i wonder what is to see on the Homescreen
I think it is Manila 2.5 but it shows CallHistory and Calendar like Manila 2.1
Is it possible to port it in a actual CFW with Manila 2.5?
This could also be manila 2.1 .. The newest versions of manila 2.1 have the same slider icons as 2.5 and aslo weather on the hometab ... having seen the latest 2.5 version that have come out lately, I am almost sure the sense shown in the pictures is sense 2.1
Try CookyMonster's mod with new Sense 2.5. Then you can change some reg. settings to have Call history and so on with sense 2.5
this is actually the new HTC HD mini, revealed at MWC in Barcelona. Sense interface looks like 2.1 but with a twist, like footprints and twitter, just like 2.5 has. Also, interestingly, it has officially 6.5.3 on it. maybe our beloved chefs will get something good out of this baby.
L.E. according to slashgear.com, the new Sense on HD mini is specially tailored by consumers requests, so it might be the best of 2.1 and 2.5 together. the hardware is lower specced then HD2 and closer to Topaz, but it has a capacitive touchscreen. therefore it might get a WP7 update
Ahh...OK.
It's a Symbiose of 2.1 and 2.5...
We will see when its released in some Months

I am 100% sure it won't get WM7 update, for one good reason it requires 1ghz and it has only 600mhz...

minimum cpu specs for WM7 is 800mhz not 1ghz
AGAIN! There will be NO upgrade of WM7 for the current devices. Maybe only for the HD2 but even that's still a rumor. Back to reality!

From what I've seen, they can keep it.
I have never cared for any WM UI and it looks like they made it worse than Titanium.
Problem is, you can't unselect it to run anything else.
It would be running in conjunction with any other interface which could be an issue for system resources.

You will first need HSPL to unlock your device then you have to find a 2.5 manila ROM to flash.
Flashing instructions are in the ROM threads
