I am so confused. Since Android apparently needs WM to run and does not run flawless I decided to try to go from WM6.1 to WM6.5.
I already know what a ROM is and that I need to replace the WM6.1 ROM from HTC with a WM6.5 ROM from here. But there are so many ROMs and all look different. I am concerned that I may install a bad ROM so I ask you: Which one should I install?
I understand that certrain functionalities work only with certain ROMs (or something). I really focus on GPS, phone, Audio Player.
Thank you so much!
P.S. I did some research here before but I end up with so much information that I cannot handle them all. I am also concerned that I follow obsolete tutorials or information or that I grab obsolete ROM files/whatever. :S

Ok so after extensive search on this wonderful site ive found more then enough helpful hints/tricks and not to mention cab files and programs that are just incredible for my Wing...attached is a screen shot...ok so the only issue i have is of course speed, i have been endlessly searching for a stable rom without any bugs and a sharp look (like the touchit lg menu one) and on top of that i have read to 'how tos' on flashing a new rom and still have no clue how to do it....its obvious the original tmobile rom is the slowest and lags...is there anyone who can recommend a rom and help with the step by step preocess??? what is the first step and when i do flash to the new rom will i lose everything i currently have on the device now...? i know newbie questions, sorry...thanks for the help in advance
I reccommend you use one of ITJE's Touch IT roms. The latest touch it Rom is 4.4, but it isn't 100% compatible with the Wing, so I'd reccommend you try the Touch IT 2.3
touchIt roms don't always flash right for people. Use opentouch or pdaviet rom.
I would say what WM 6.1 rom cookes is better. Thanks
better? than what? what do you mean? compared to other cooks, 6.1 roms (if so which?), or other 6.0 Roms? what are u talking about?
What exactly was the point of this thread? Just a waste of disk space
What we have here is a failure to communicate....
I believe the gent is asking for us to suggest what rom he should use.
@~FullSyst3m~: The matter is up to you. Go read & find what ROM suits YOUR needs best. No one here has any idea your level of proficiency or to what end you use your device.
If you are not familiar with the WM6.1 ROMS or flashing or fixing the F'ups flashing can cause just using one of the 6.0 RTM ROMs, then I would urge you to just wait. All of the available ROMS that are 6.1 take some degree of tweaking & hacking to get them running correctly. At least for me, but I am dependent on several apps that I must run & don't work well with 6.1. It took me 4 hours to get them all running again & involved hacking the registry.
Unless have some experience with these things or just don't care what runs & what doesn't & are prepared to hack your way through the issues, I'd wait.
If you can't wait then you can think about Sleuth maybe. Understand though, most of the 6.1 ROMS available are WWE or Chinesse. I don't know your primary language or provider because your profile is completely lacking.
I would be only an advice regard 6.1 rom
try the new Sleuth rom
Very thanks
Hey all,
First please let me say I am not looking for anyone to tell me what is the BEST cooked rom out there. I know each one has specific plusses and minuses that are suited to particular purposes.
Also, I have looked through this forum. I have read most of the WIKI, and spent an hour reading through various posts. However, I haven't found a concise discussion of this as many people are focusing on cooked ROMs.
I am getting a Tilt and from my reading so far I am pretty sure I want to reflash it with an HTC Rom. I want the TouchFlo and some of the other stuff that the HTC offers. I have some general questions though:
1) Is there a downside to putting HTC Rom on a Tilt? I know there are some little issues that have solutions (like keyboard remap) but will I experience any instability or call/data quality issues running HTC over ATT ROM?
2) Relating to #1...can/should I just keep the ATT ROM and can I then add everything from the HTC ROM (from cabs?). I don't know which solution yields the best stability.
3) Is there a reason why I would go with a 6.0 ROM instead of 6.1 ROM? I would like to believe that the 6.1 is the newer, better stuff...but maybe not?
4) What is the latest 6.1 official ROM? Is it RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship?
5) When it comes to "official" shipped ROMs and Radio firmware from ATT and HTC, is there any good reason not to use the latest versions? That is are any of the new versions a step backwards in terms of stability/performance?
I do not want to use any cooked firmware (at least initially). I would like to start with a vanilla shipped firmware and then add/remove things myself. If this comes down to me cooking my own ROM so be it, but I would like to start with the basic.
My goal is to have a ROM that will be fast and stable, with as few lock-ups or resets as possible.
Thanks for your assistance.
1)i dont believe so it depends on the radio i believe
2)i think u should flash cuz it'll remove all the atnt junk..bloatware n such
3)it all depends on personal pref...i did cuz i wanted the threaded sms function
4)i dont know.sorry
5)i think they're all pretty much the same..just gotta test the differnt versions to find out
most of the cooked roms i tried arent as bad...not many lockups or resets
i'm still a noob at flashing tho so still trying things out
Hello,
I tried to find an information about drivers from htcclassaction.org for support graphic acceleration on HTC Kaiser.
Is possible to install these newest drivers (HTC-CA-Kaiser-Drivers.cab) on original HTC WM 6.0 (not 6.1) ??
or like older versions of them, they doesn't support WM6.0 ?
I don't want to flash now my device to WM 6.1, but I'm tired of using this slow device..
Thanks for info in advance.
I'm sure the answer to your question has been provided in the proper thread. Use that thread.

http://www.htcclassaction.org/
I see that is inpossible
not good..
but is a sense to install these drivers on orginal 6.1 or better to take some "third party" rom ? (for example to use TF3D)
hmm, hard to understand your question it is.
I think this should answer it.
For whatever reason, the driver was created by someone here at xda and the original roms were not.
The original roms are somewhat locked down and require some tricks to unlock the phone. That most likely is why or copy right infringment.
Hello guys 1st sorry i know the answers of the questions i will ask are writen in this X1 Forum but the reason to ask you here is because im not X1 User im a Blackstone user and i know how to play with my device.

well, most of what you ask is in the sticky section of this thread, but ok, here goes...
hard spl
micro sd method
custom ruu method
I guess that's similar to most HTC devices, though I'm lacking experience there
I prefer valkyrie leo rom (wm 6.5.3, manila 2.5), new UI style (Builds 280**), maybe a little more stable are the old UI style ones (Builds 218**)
about NRGZ roms I don't have to tell you, seeing your signature...
can't give advice on wm6.1 roms though, sorry, as I only use the wm6.5 ones
Radio: I think it best to try different ones, as for me higher versions seem to drain more battery without really improving signal quality, you see in my signature what I finally settled for
but again: that's an individual (geographical) question that in the end only you can answer
hope that helped some

Yes thank you for the Info like i say i know that everything is writen in the forum but better to ask befor to mess something.
So i will flash the X1 but i never have expirience with ROMs for X1 for that reason i prefer something close up to the default stock ROM but to be Fast and Stable i don`t mind if the ROM is WM6.1 also the guy with the X1 is not so...... technical and maybe will be easy for him to not have so big change in the phone the reason to wana flash his phone is because is really very very slow and crash often frize and etc..
So you told me already with ROM u use but its a new Build with the 2.5 Manila and always the old Windows build etc will be light of memory usage and faster stable.. im just looking for one Fast Stable ROM no matter from the Build etc
Thank you

read that Touch X 10.1 (smaberg) and 10.8.* (MrRusch) have good voting
also Phoenix rom (Oobly) is reported to be very fast, all Wm6.1, check them as a start, until further feedback arrives
