ROM's bult using no2chems work.
BEWARE YOU MUST WRITE DOWN YOUR SETTINGS OR YOU WILL BE ON THE PHONE WITH YOUR CARRIER.
VZW USERS THIS FLASH WILL CAUSE YOUR PHONE TO BECOME UNVALIDATED.
You must have the latest radio installed and your device must be unlocked. Radio and Unlocker can be found here. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=209996&postcount=2
If you are not a sprint customer do not allow the above flash to boot when u hit the calibration screen u must put your device into bootloader mode and flash your rom of choice.
If you are a Verizon customer doing this will require u to call Verizon and get a new akey this is easily obtained.
Updated 3-23-08 4:32pm
Remember USE AT YOUR OWN RISK...
Verizon / Sprint / Alltel / Telus / USCellular / Qwest / BellMobility.
All ROM's can be found here http://nex.ppckitchen.org/ROM in there respective folders.
All apps fully up to date to the best of my knowledge if not please post current and I will update in next release.
When it asks about customizations only install adhoc.cab unless u see a program u need.
Assuming this is for verizon. Phone is unlocked with Olipro 2.40, but have been waiting to figure out whether those with problems just aren't flashing right, or whether there are real problems with 3.16. List looks good and I'd be willing to try it- any chance of adding vzw wireless sync?
Im down to build it in if possible just need the .cab I am a exchange user so I never even thought of it I may actually have the .cab
EDIT: Got wsync grabbed from ext rom building it now then I will test it if nothing else I can make it install on a post.
I can get it to you if you need it, but not until tomorrow. In the meantime, the website is http://ota.wsync.com, which has download links to wsync for the different vzw phones.
as stated in other post...i wouldn't mind grabbing that kitchen you've adapted (i have sprint...i've constantly tried o piece together a working kitchen..but i keep getting some damn errors)...looks like a fire ass rom though..good stuff

Hey -- once you get this bad boy going with your kitchen. I would love to get my hands on it too. I am Sprint here as well.
Are you on the new version currently? Are you having any data load (EVDO) issues? Mine were so bad I finally downgraded.
But now I feel lonely and want to join the party again if I can get the data to work correctly.

Ok I tried to build in the Wireless sync and I got it in but I am getting connection issues the wsync cab seems very entailed I am thinking a post installer would be best for use with that particualr program.

this just coming from myself, im not sure how Nexvision feels, but at this point there isnt a kitchen stable enough to release publiclly. my kitchen that ive been using is basically hacked together, i have a lot of extra steps right now to get it to build my custom roms that ive been releasing, and im not sure how clean nexvision's kitchen is, especially if it is built off my rom as soon as a good kitchen gets put together, im sure someone will release it

Yeah -- trust me -- I did the same thing.
Over the course of the last 3 or 4 days, I have probably loaded and reloaded my phone no less than 6-8 times. Playing around and doing test. That is why I knew (maybe ignorance really would have been more bliss) that the data throughput with 3.16 was was worse (at least for me) then with 2.17.
But -- ohhh how I really liked 3.16. Seemed much more stable. And DCD's build (although did have some bugs) was really nice too.

well, like i said, i have to change something different each time, and try flashing a lot of times to get a stable rom. my rom may only be on r3, but i have made at least 25 roms, 22 of which didnt work in some way or another. Just give it a couple of days, or maybe nex's kitchen is clean enough to release. im not super experienced, just enough of a hacker to piece a kitchen together and get a rom put together. i am working on making it carrier independant right now, and that is the last major step for me to release mine.

I've got TMI (too much information) on these pages. I love updating my phone but now I can't figure out what my next option or options are. I have the Sprint Mogul with Mobile 6 professional (CE OS 5.2.1622) and I installed the new ROM - 3.16.651.0 with radio 3.27.00.
I'm interested in going to the next level but what is that? Also, I want only stuff that is pretty stable - does not have to be perfect but I don't want to loose main functionality.
Thanks in advance,
tsp
Check out DCD 2.2.xx ROMS in this forum, I use and love them. I have been using ROMs from here for a long time, on my Axim and Elf, now on my Titan. Got to love the build quality and additional options they give you.
I recommend a DCD ROM as well. Wait for his next release (next after 2.2.3) as there is a bug that should be fixed very soon. You won't be dissapointed.
depends on what you want....
you want basic....stable....not many progs....go with dcd
you want basic....stable....some decent progs...go with nexvision
you want a little more advanced....alot of progs....go with colonel custom rom from ppcgeeks.com
all are good...i use colonels currently...after a little modifying and setting up on your behalf it will probably be the best rom to use until we get a kitchen and create our own personal roms...
the other two are cool...but they have the same low memory as a phone with many programs....and some core things that I like were taken out that jus made the phone...well....boring....
so its up to you...and what YOU like.
..been doing this for a while
I like DCD's rom... been using 2.2.0 and it is great... I'll wait abit to move up a notch....
Can't go wrong with DCD's roms...
HTC Home
Hey Splitter,
I am really new to making alot of upgrades and understanding some of the language. Can I get my Mogul to look like the screen in you profile pic, or possibly to get the HTC Home application so that i can get the Touch options such as weather, time, etc.
Only1
yes all you have to do is get the homeplug cab that was taken from the touch. i also would recommend the htc touch dialer so you keypad is easier to do. Just search for them. they should be on this site
Hey Mike18 thanks however i can't find it and i am a little or should i say a lot iliterate. Can you please direct.

Thanks coffey_joshua. This has been a great help, however i didn't see the weather screen or the Touch screen and skins.
once you get the htc home to your main screen you should be able to just click on the sun icon and have an option to update your city
this is sooo cool. Do you think i am going to be constantly updating my phone now, it seems to be addictive.
yeah maybe you didn't read the disclaimer about upgrading your phone.....
it clearly states your wife/ girlfriend will become upset with you because of the amount of time you will put into your phone
dcd and No2Chem
I have used both dcd's and No2Chem's most recent roms and found them both to be great. Those guys are amazing!
Currently I have NexVision's Hybrid on my mogul...based on a dcd2.x.x rom (think it's 2.2.6 but not sure) and loaded with other useful apps, it's one of the better "dressed up" rom's I have found in my short time.
Big Ups to all those guys for sharing and helping the rest of us to learn!!

I recently upgraded from DCD 2.2.1 to no2chems' 2.0 (basically for the extended ROM access). What a great ROM, I highly recommend it.
Being able to access and use the 9MB+ of the Ext ROM is a huge plus. There is also a thread at PPCGEEKS (when their web site works) that explains how to automate the loading of your favorite programs from EXT ROM when you flash your phone.
Freaking awesome.

I'd actually consider downloading this, but I tend to be pretty picky about knowing where all the files came from and what changes were made, so I'll probably stick with my own kitchen I'm futzing around with. I'll take a peek, though, and I might be able to suggest a change or two if I notice things I've figured out that you've not yet implemented yet.

You want the honest truth? A couple of reasons.
In order to have something that I'd feel comfortable with other people using, it would require several more weeks of futzing around with the files. I've already been at this for almost three weeks now, and I'm tired of using my HTC Typhoon. I want my real phone back (since the Athena >>> Typhoon).
The final ROM that I'll be using won't match the ROM that other people will be using, period. It's because I'll be putting some of the software that I've bought into my ROM, and putting in some hard-coded dependencies upon those (since there are some interesting things here and there you can do).
I hate doing support. For which I heartily applaud irus, since he's been single-handedly patiently trying to help everyone who's been using his ROM. Pawel was doing the same for a while, albeit a little less patiently, although I don't know where he's disappeared off to recently.
There are probably other reasons as well, but those are the ones I can think of for now. I mean, if there's truly interest, I can see what I can do, but one of the other things that bit me the last time is that I don't want to debug things alone again - the last time, it sucked well over a month from my life to handle all that.
Anyways, this is the thread for the IRUS ROM Kitchen, not the maybe Sogarth ROM kitchen, so I'll leave it at that.
What about mixing Chinese with new Irus one?
I wonder if there could be a way to mix Irus rom with this Chinese one to get a new WWE version based on the newest built and fastest up to now?
It should not be e big problem to put mui files from Irus kitchen into Chinese rom and change a mui to English. There is a reg key setting language for the rom. Irus knows it better then me, anyway.
Unfortunately I can't download anything from rapidsare nor from megaploads because of me being behind a proxy of my 3G network.
Irus, if you could upload your kitchen on my eurotelefon server, then I could get it here and start learning. Today I have some work to do yet, but maybe later I could start.
Edit:
We have to test new rom of Irus first, and then compare it with the Chinese version. It could be very interesting. Steve has very good experience with this Chinese rom so we eventually could use it in future works. Of course we need to ask for the permission, but I am sure the Chinese producer can be proud of his work and let us use it to build something new on it. This is how the development goes, anyway.

i took a brief shoot as i have never done a language swap before and it did not work i will consider it but im still fussing around with new bt stack so people can send files back and forth between phones and laptop and phone. that is the last thing i need to do to make my rom complete. i will want a monday release as i said i would release on monday and i don't like being late. but on the other hand the chinese rom works better at transferring files so if this becomes a dead end then i might have no choice but to push back the release date and work with the chinese rom. i will make an official announcement tomorrow night
Sergiopi,
Please see my post on the Chinese ROM thread regarding caution in using this download.
irus,
This looks like a user friendly tool, but I've a question at the stage where we're looking at the dump: How do you go about finding out which pieces are for which ? Is there a website to go to in order to make sure we're removing the right thing? Or is it a trial and error kind of process? If I want to extract out the new cotact application from a newer ROM, for example, how do I know what the pieces are?

to me i think the easiest way, if you upgrading the app, is to look and see what files are in the new app and just replace the old. you could make packages but then you have to make a rom folder and xip subfolder and IMO buildos is sometimes picky about reg entries. so the best way is to just replaces the files in the dump folder and then edit the hv and if needed the inflashfiles.dat
This is also in conjuction with eaglesteves previous question.
So I do all of the 'editing' of the ROM in the dump folder right? Second, what if I want to remove entire program, is there an easy to extract 'everything' and its components from the ROM? For instance, what if I want to remove the calculator and put in a freeware calc. do I just remove the calculator folder or is there more to this process?
In the ROM that I'm editing...really just for experiment....I want to remove alot of things and add some, and see if I can put it back together.
I hope this makes since.
Thanks Irus for a good tutorial.

Need help for Exract Bluetooth stack and wireless manager from Taxist V10 rom
Hi
Anyone please help me to extract Bluetooth Stack and the wireless manager from taxist V10 rom.
Just i need to know that which files are needed for Bluetooth Stack and Which files for wireless manager.
I have seen the files in the os.nb but i do not know which files for the bluetooth and wireless.
Thanks in advance.
I downloaded the instructions but for some reason, it can't be read with any of my programs even Microsoft Word.
If I want to extract a particular file off from a WM6.1 RUU_signed.nbh file, which of the included programs should I use?
I tried Scoter Kitchen, but it does not read .nbh files.
NetCF3.5 OEM?
Hi Irus,
I was trying to get an OEM for NETCF3.5 from your FULL ROM using Sogarth kitchen, but with no joy.
Could you suugest any place I could look for it? The same for FTouch?
I was wondering if anyone here has successfully integrated (OEM'd) their carrier cab into DCD's Kitchen.
I'm trying to do it with 3.2.4 (fixed most of the bugs), but it doesn't do anything other than import the registry entries and create the EPSTLab link. (Verizon Carrier Cab)
The carrier OEM's were taken out of the kitchen after 3.0.4 and made into the carrier cabs. Your best bet is to just stick with the carrier cab. Is it that hard to install one cab after flashing? If your response is "Well, I have lots of cabs to install after flashing...", then my answer to you would be...USE UC

Nah, I don't mind installing it. I just like to try to simplify and customize the ROM as much as possible.
So it was indeed used before and just removed?

Yes, all carrier OEM's were included in kitchens 3.0.4 and before. They were removed to make a generic multi carrier rom for everyone. Before, there would be a link to the kitchen, then links to pre-cooked roms for every carrier...totalling around 50mb each. Much easier to link the kitchen and one pre-cooked rom, then just link small carrier cabs.

Hmmm so with that being said I should most likely quit using the OEM from 3.0.4 I know you just rolled your eyes. By the way, I still OEM MMS and other stuff. Guess I need to come out of the stone ages. But then again I just finally upgraded from 3.0.4. I just liked it so much with the configuration I ran and it was soooooooo stable.
Damn son, yeah look into UC or something and get up to date. You must be using an old version of Arcsoft too huh?
I was just thinking about this topic.
I had already found the UC and am trying to figure out all that stuff too.

Hmmm ya, I'm not one who needs the newest software. Normally I let yall fix all the bugs first . I know all about UC and have actually helped a few friends with theirs but I just never ventured off onto my own UC. I'll still probably wait for 3.2.5 before I do anything. Then will most likely allocate on of my cards just for flashing and UC.
Yeah, my Verizon MMS cab works perfectly and is the latest "released" version of Arcsoft. Throw that in your UC config and you'll be good.

Ya I messed with it when you released it and then again the other day when I finally decided to upgrade ROM's. Maybe it's a placebo affect but I seem to have more free ram and better stability when I OEM instead of cab. Then again I could just simply out of my friggin mind

Also, nothing from it is being used in any of dcd's stuff until it's officially released or I get permission to post it, so put that rumor to bed.
I can however say that with it comes a new version of Arcsoft that will work for both Verizon AND Alltel. It's build 5.0.70.24 and NO it will not work on Sprint, so don't bother asking lol. It also includes a built in application to turn threaded messaging on and off and a new PRI 2.03_002. It obviously includes EVDO Rev A support.
I'm not going to go into great detail regarding GPS, but all I'm going to say is...though the potential is now there, it's STILL going to be some work to get it to work like Sprint's, and may not even be possible at all...but we shall see. You can all thank Verizon for that.
2 questions
what is this "UC" you speak of, and how do you use it?
if i have .cab for my programs can i just extract the cab to a folder then put that in the OEM folder for the kitchen and have the kitchen build with all my progs? does it work like that or is there more to it?

If you look at every new kitchen post, you'll see posted right at the top under features, UC Compatible, with a link....looks like someone doesn't read the kitchen posts...
and
No, it doesn't work that way at all.

Check out this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366337&highlight=reg+xml+tool
Worse case just do the SDConfig.txt file with all the cabs you need to install and you are more than half way there to where you left off on the phone.

thanks for the tip!
I know these things were better on my Wing and on my Mogul, but I can't imagine things getting any better on the Touch Pro. I mean it seems really hard to top...

You are in for a big surprise....
Amen to that.. .LOL
I have tried (almost) all of the cooked ROM's in this Rapahel forum. Some put more emphasis on being faster and lighter than the stock and others just a better all-around package, enhancements and fixes. Each one and his own tastes with what they are looking for. There are also those who are just fine with the stock.
Trying out new ROM's is a trial and error experience and it takes time until you hit the one you like, but it is also fun and addictive... , I'm totally an addict.
If you are not quite pleased with performance or something about your phone and tweaks are not something that can fix it- you have come to the right place.
why do i feel like this thread is beating a dead horse?

No of course not, this is a forum filled with HTC Stock ROM fanatics...
To be honest I always wondered, what makes them so special.
I mean what (except additional programs or OS build updates) they do "better" that I cannot do by just registry tweaking etc.
It would be VERY helpful if there was a list with comparing bias, extras etc.

I'm feeling the same way. Surprised the thread has not been locked already.
Well if you guys say so...
My Wing desperately needed cooked ROMs cuz the stock one was so slow. Same with my Mogul, except that with that phone the cooked ones were faster but less stable.
I dunno if I want to try this on my new Touch Pro just yet. I need more of a detailed testimonial I guess before I decide to operate on my baby...

I will have to say yes, the cooked roms are better than the stock one.
Mine is majorly faster than it was out of the box, the GPS works better, and programs are using less memory. Most things you might be able to achieve on your own, however most include updates to the drivers for the wireless, video card, os, etc that you would not be able to do yourself (or at least not easily)

Lol, yes. Its like a whole new phone. ATT stock ROM was so laggy I almost wanted to return the whole thing. That's just my anecdotal experience, next time I flash the stock ROM I'll bench it if you want.
CFC compressed TF3D and such, plenty of cooked-in optimizations contributed from all over the community that the stock ROM has no idea about, you can't replicate a good chef's ROM with reghacks alone.

I also have a wing and a touch pro. I found the AT&T stock rom to be ok vs my wing custom rom. I then loaded a lot of the roms on the forum and seen how much better it could be. No overloaded os, way more memory, more gps tools, unlocked HSDPA/HSUPA, super fast speeds vs stock rom, working 3d drivers (on some but not all custom roms) and alot more changes. Try out RRE rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467592. Its the best rom I have every used on any wm device.
Well if you guys say so I'll go ahead and do it. I can't believe it gets better than this!

Oddly enough, I ran the stock Fuze ROM for a while, and I'd agree completely that out of the box it is slllloooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. I flashed a few ROM's ,eventually settled on RRE until the later versions started exhibiting serious battery drain issues. I flashed back to stock to wait for a fix for that and right now the STOCK AT&T FUZE ROM is as fast and stable as RRE, with all the great battery of the original.

funny you should say that, but a co-worker of mine did do that, he returned it shortly after getting it. I was able to convince him to get it again, and allow me to "re-flash" (that was after he played with mine and was impressed)
So how do I go about flashing a CDMA Touch Pro? I hear that the HardSPL program out there doesn't work with CDMA phones.

ROTFLMYAO, It is hard to get up in BK especially in E-NY. After looking at this thread, I think I am going back to sleep What time is it again? May be when I get up, this thread will be closed.
East New YOrk here too mang
ANyway, I figured out how to flash CMDA phones over at PPCGeeks. I will report back for possible ownage.
bad grammar, stupid question. Of course they are better, they have different drivers, newer applications, and have stuff added that can only be cooked in. Some of the stuff you can add through cabs and by messing with the registry but everything is faster cooked in
My Verizon Touch Pro comes on monday. First thing i'm doing is flashing it. I'd like to get some opinions on the best ROM's at the moment to start with.
Thanks
ssk
Hands down it's the best out there.... especially with the kitchen bc you can customize it to your liking instead of only having what someone else decided to cook up for you...
sounds good, now just so I don't get lost, I'm kinda new to this. What's the difference between a ROM that's been cooked and then one that has a kitchen. Is it the fact that the entire ROM is customizable?

A cooked rom comes pre-built - you just flash and away you go
A Kitchen is a small program which lets you customize what you want, then create the ROM files automatically - then flash.
The Kitchen is more hands on.
I actually am using mighty rom 4.16 (Flashed a few others, but keeps going back to mighty mike).
SSK is good!
When my girlfriend got her Touch Pro the stock TELUS rom was horrible! Crummy performance, crashed often.. minor glitches.
I'm a fan of cooking a completely custom ROM but SSK really worked in a pinch. She's been using it two months steady with no complaints.
I tried JD's, Juicy, and mighty.......but im staying with the SSK rom now. Its perfect for me and my VZW. you will love it. Mighty was cool.....but i had to do all this customization to get it about how i wanted it, and then it was buggy. SSK was flash and go for me. I just added my own theme, apps, and did an active sync.
Just got my TP (VZW) on Friday. i loaded SKK It works seamlessly. SKK and POINTUI is the way to go
thanks guys, i really look forward to being an active member here

I've been flashing every build SSK puts out for the last couple months, and have enjoyed every one of them. When I was first learning how to use the kitchen, I wrote up extensive documentation on how to do it. My .doc file is a little to large to attach here, so let me know if you would like it via PM.
I for one, would love the document. If you get a chance, I would appreciate you sending it. Thanks.

impudent as the bomb! His docs are pretty damn good. I reviewed them myself and thought they were accurately accurate ;c)
Check out Scott's new website with forum for all of your SSK needs!!
http://www.sskusers.com/
For those who Don't know, Scrosler has released a ROM from his his newly formed kitchen SSK 2.0. After 4 days of being posted, no bug reports are coming in. The full Kitchen will be released very shortly. Check in on him at
http://www.sskusers.net
Scott is realeasing ROMS and Kitchens for the Sprint Diamond as well. Documentation can be found at that site.

I would definitely suggest using SPB Mobile Shell 3. I've never been a fan of SPB things, but MS3 has made terrific improvements to its Shell, and now I can't go back to anything else. Hands down the fastest and most convenient Shell out there.
Try it out, and temporarily disable POINTUI Home first beforehand. You will love it!
This ROM, any from the SSK line up, will sadly leave you wanting for more...
More ROMS! Because they are the best with the fewest problems. It will make a huge difference to your phone. You will sit up at night, staring at your computer hoping Scott will put a new one up without warning. Then you will stay up all night downloading and flashing. It will affect your marriage and your job. But you won't care beacuse now your phone will amaze you.
Do it. Do it now. Do not wait. Flash a ROM or build one in a kitchen, you will never regret it.
I wanted to just flash something fast and bug free and be done with flashing (after 6+ months of constant flashing). Happy to say that SSK HD 6.1 did the trick. Great battery life comparted to other HD 6.1's I had tried as well.
SSK Rules
The newest SSK ROM out is awesome. For those of you that don't know whick one, it is SSK 2.1.1. He has WM6.1 and WM6.5 both available with a premade ROM or a kitchen.
IDK if its a problem in the build or just with manala but the weather tab has some issues. when i try to add my town, i go to the state, then try to scroll to the town and all it shows is the first few cities of the a's and when you try to scrool it goes strait to the end of the z's. so it might be better to install just a rom without manila and load that on your own.
So... maybe its just been a long day but does anyone know if sskusers.net not work anymore? It keeps taking me to godaddy. wtf? And I cant seem to find any links that will take me to download the 6.5 Roms... Can anyone point me in the right direction?
thanks.
I saw some posts on ppcgeeks that mentioned that Scott was taking the site offline and would not be doing further development work on his ROMs. I'm on his Touch Pro 6.5, it really works well and I'll stay with this one until I buy a Windows Phone 7 (as long as it has GPS and can run a few select apps I'm using now) at the end of the year.
