Firstly I've looked around to make sure that my questions weren't answered somewhere else.
The only promissing thread that might've helped me is apparently dead ([GM730/750] Custom ROMs experiment).
What I'm asking is if there's a kitchen out there that works for LG's GM750 (also known as "Layla") with a Vf10 firmware.
I'd only want to upgrade from 6.5 to 6.5.3 (and change the boot anim) but apparently the only ROMs out there are for GM730 and not for GM750.
Please, its really hard going-by with the WinMo scene dominated by HTC phones.
Anything that might help me flash a custom ROM with WinMo 6.5.3 on a GM750 is not just appreciated, but desperately needed !
I would risk flashing a GM730 ROM, as I've heard (per previously linked thread) that there aren't much/if not any differences between 730 and 750 but I'd like to hear other people's ideas/options.
Sure, ROM cooking doesn't look as easy as using nlite but if that's the only option please tell me!
Thanks in advance!
I've followed the steps in this guide, but step 12 with error and finaly rom not work ^^!

i have my HTC 8125 mobile with WM5 OS.
i didnt unlock my CID yet but I will unlock it later right after if someone answers my important question that always twinkling in my mind.
Upgrading roms for WM5 to WM6 is just like installing a application? ( sorry coz this is my first time to do this.)
currently downloading Xplore1.1 and farias rom. is it alrady overclocked when i installed one of those? do i need to overclock my mobile?
thanks alot!
I would stick with Xlpore's Rom, since you didn't mention that you had a 4g or 3g, since it will work great on both. Just extract those files and run it, simple as that. If i were you i would read up a little on the whole process. nothing like having a $200 brick cause you didn't know what you were doin

Dude, you have a LOT of reading to do before I'd suggest you even start to do this (based on that question alone). No, its not like installing an application. You are installing an entire new OS (Installing, not Upgrading). So when you do this, its going to wipe out everything on your phone (not your SD card, but on your phone's internal memory).
I'd highly advise you to read and understand whats in the Wiki for the wizard. Then read and understand the stickies at the top of this forum and the ones at the top of the Wizard Upgrading forum.
For the sake of your phone, make sure you understand this stuff. Don't just run an executable because it sounds cool. I'm not trying to scare you off or anything, I just want you to understand what you are looking at doing and understand that flashing custom roms isn't the fix to everything.
Understand also that these custom roms are (for the most part) test things. There are bugs, there are quirks, and there are things that flat don't work. Sure, for the most part they give you more power, and a better functioning phone, but for some of the roms that requires tweaking to get it to that point, so you need to understand what is involved (people here will assist, but we won't spoon feed).
Here's an excellent post with TONS of pointers to information (yeah its buried in the XPLore thread. We need to pull this out into the Wiki or make a sticky with this):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1206964&postcount=894
Read and learn before you start flashing. You will save yourself a lot of grief, and may even save the life of your phone.

You definately need to read the Wiki before you do anything. It gives you step by step instruction and will most definately make flashing your device easier. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to PM me. Good luck.

Firstly, greetings.
I'm sure I'm opening myself up for abuse as per what I've read in countless posts but here goes.
I've been searching, and reading, and learning - hopefully enough to get myself through my first ROM flash without bricking my Kaiser, and for all the information here on this forum I thank you all.
My question however is one that I can't find a straight forward answer; with all these seductive cooked ROMS and shiny new features (CUBE, WM6.1, KaiserDiamond hybrid, D3D) not included on my bog standard phone.. Am I safe to presume that all ROMs in the Kaiser forum will run on my Kaiser? I want to make sure before I'm lured in by a new ROM that I cannot run.
Again, thank you to all the cooks, and those creating the Wiki's.

The only concern would be compatible radios (ie some Roms will not function properly with some radios) just read in the Rom thread to determine compatible radios or flash a rom with a built in radio (l26's new roms for example). Make sure you install hard spl, flash a proper radio and then flash ar new rom and your on your way (don't get nervous if your pda stays in tricolor for a couple of minutes before the rom starts flashing, I freaked out when that happened the first time I flashed).
I am a newbie when it comes to flashing a WinMob Phone. I currenly have the HTC Fuze on a AT&T network and I hate it. The interface is slow and clunky. I am on the fence about buying a new phone but if there is a way to get to a better ROM I think I would give it a try. Is there a ROM for WinMob 6.5 to work with this phone?
Thanks!
You will probably want to visit the ROM forum. There are _lots_ of WM 6.5 ROMs available.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=440
Check out the various ROMs posted there (including how-to-flash FAQ!).
as xda_fanboy says, check the rom development forums and read up on the guide to flashing roms.
I'm currently using Energy ROM 6.5 "warhawk" edition. I like it, there are a few bugs, but nothing that bothers me. it's faster and more efficient..
on a side note, if you have questions, ask specific questions (i.e What does hardspl mean?) not over general ones (which rom should I use? how do i flash roms). Most of your questions should be answered by the FAQ provided in the rom forum.
enjoy!
I'm a newbie to HTC HD2, I've been reading through this forum for a few weeks but I'm still quite confused about versions and mods available out there. So, can someone experienced explain to me about the following:
My HD2 comes with Traditional Chinese ROM (probably from Taiwan) and the manila version in it is 1.0.19211620.0.
When I browsed through the max manila thread, and the top "sense 2.5 tweaks and mods" thread, it seems that all those mods are for "sense 2.5" or "manila 2.5" version. So, does that mean that my manila version is far behind? If so, can I still download and try those mods with my HD2, or should I upgrade my manila (and how can I upgrade it?).
Well.. that's about those questions I'm confused. Thanks in advance for any one who can kindly help me.
This will be an interesting thread for me to watch. My Manila version is 2.5.19202525.0 and that's how it came from the store.
I kinda have the same question you have. also i wonder how it all relates. i get the idea max manila is an upgrade for the standard manila, whatever it is i don't know. niether why some sense addon cabs don't work for me (like the call history, didn't look too complicated for an addon to me)
I'm not sure if you can upgrade manilla without flashing a new ROM. Though don't take my word for it, I just haven't seen it on XDA. Although I did see something about the document tab in manilla as a .cab....
Anyway, have you considered flashing a new ROM? I flashed Miris 6.5.x V3.0 and works great (was first time too, it was easy). That would upgrade your manilla. Although, i've no idea about flashing a ROM and region of your handset. I just know I used WWE. You'll have to wait for someone more knowledgeble than I to reply.
If want to find out if the .cab files work, just try one. I assume it can be uninstalled anyway, if it doesn't work then you may want to consider flashing a custom ROM, or perhaps a more recent stock ROM. There's excellent video guides on how to flash Stock and cutsom ROMs using HSPL in the ROM section.
Hope this has helped.

Thanks for the reply. I did try some mods and some of them work while others don't. I believe some mods crashed with the camera so I became more cautious about trying them out now.
For the region thing. I have yet another question. I understand that the official ROMs were from different HD2 released in other countries, but does that mean that if I install a US ROM then I can't read or type Traditional Chinese, or it's only a interface difference? If that is the case, I don't think I am going to flash my machine because I need to type and read Chinese language.
Hallo here in forum
today i want to flash my "new" htc tytn2. a friend gave it to me as present, because he had his new i-phone.
he told me, that he already flashed a few roms (from xda-dev) on the phone, so i think i can use the "Flashing Your First Kaiser Rom (For Noobs)"-guide from STEP 5 to flash my new baby...... am i right ??
i mean i dont need to do the hardSPL-part, right ?
im just going to doublesheck a few things here, because i dont want to do no mistake.
then he told me, that i just should look witch is the most popular rom (i think he ment the thread with the most posts or clicks.)
i followed his hint and found the "HyperDragon IV Mega"-rom
but then takin a closer look i realised that the links to the rom are down:
"...Admin edit: links removed due to legal complaint from microsoft...."
hmm,....i know it is hard to say "witch is the best rom"...but can anyone give me his special tip.
i think it is not a good way to just take the rom with the most posts in the supportthread, because it is possible, that a rom just lunched and is better than olders,etc.
is there any thread with a list of most popular roms and a discussion about them ???
greetings revnu
105 views and noone has an idea ?
isnt there a list of all roms and a kind of ratingsystem to make it easier for someone to decide wich rom to try out ?

There is unwillingness to do any kind of rating, etc. out of respect for the chefs and their hard work, which is voluntarily done.
I know how it is to come to this scene for the first time. You've read the flashing guide. That's good. Take a look at the various offerings. Consider the features. Read the comments. There are a lot of excellent roms to try. Some are lite, so you can add features to your liking. (probably something you should try later after you become more familiar with the flashing scene) Some are loaded according to the cook's taste. After a few tryouts you might even become a flashing junkie.
Good Success!
ok i understand.
at time i have the black styluz mod. i dont know wich version, but i have to flash a new rom because my version have bugs.
im going to flash the black styluz v5 because i dont have a clue wich rom could be good
but i think there are a few roms out there wich a very popular, because they have win6,5 or other things.
okok i try to tell it in short:
I AM NOT ABLE TO DECIDE WICH ROM TO TAKE BECAUSE THEIR ARE TO MUCH AND THEY HAVE NO STRUKTURE
from my later experiences then flashing older phones i always found such thing is a "list of avabable roms".... is their such a threath ?
sry 4 bad english
"list of available roms" . . . For the most part, that is what this forum is. All Kaiser roms found on XDA are listed here, on a thread by thread basis. You mentioned bugs. . . You'll have problems on many if you don't flash to a stock rom first. Each cook offers the recommended procedure for flashing their rom. Their recommendations are worth following.
ur right....im sry
ill check few roms and decide ma own. till now i had experience with black stylus.
the error i had (could not send sms) was because of my handyprovider...
anyway i now flashed the newest black stylus (full) over the older sylus version......without flashing to a stock rom first. i read the instruktion on his site, but i think i missed the part...
Once you become a little more familiar with things it won't be so troublesome. I hope you will enjoy it. The ol' Kaiser is sinking into the sunset, but it is still a great phone, and many of these roms bring out the best this device has to offer.
Good success to you. . .
There are so many to try? It's good. You will not get bored by your phone!
First, read through the FAQ & Wiki. Even if you don't have to do unlock and HardSPL anymore..
It's very important to read more than do more in the beginning.
Enjoy your TyTn II. I use it as 'PC' and dial into my older SE M600i that acts as bluetooth modem. The reason is that I have bought data plan for that SIM card, and I don't want to swap my current SIM card on my working phone (TyTn II) to older phone, but want to use the internet update from that data plan. Tricky, but it works!
I don't know if any other platform can do the same.
