What is a good rom for an alltel touch pro? What im looking for is manilla 2+ and working wifi internet sharing. Just the stock htc black mainilla is what im looking for. Not sure on 6.1 or 6.5 what is the advantage of 6.5? I want the faster more stable one what are some advantages of 6.5? do all programs work in 6.5? if not i will stick with 6.1.
Thanks for your opinions.
Edit: forgot to mention it is an alltel touch pro but now on verizon.
TRY,TRY & TRY till you get the right one..one may be good for me but may not be for you..there are wonderful cooks in raphael section..there are different ROM's for CDMA and GSM so be careful they cant be be interchanged.

Is there anyone that can get a CDMA working ROM or Kitchen for the 6.5 21189 ROM that Da_G posted?
Post found here.
I have played around with putting the ROM and SYS folders in other Kitchens, but so far, have been unsuccesful (haven't done any TP cooking yet).
Can someone with skills get this up and running for us???
PS. The Microsoft ROM threat was a fake.

I believe DaG's rom is for the GSM Fuze...I wouldn't try to make this work on a CDMA phone...
Look for Energy's rom...I believe it is an alpha port of the new Rhodium stuff including a early beta of the Rhodium manila being ported by XBmod and 12aon
My apologies and correction...
I believe Energy's rom is also GSM...
Conflipper is the one working on the CDMA version of that project.
Not sure if he has released anything on it yet. (my guess is no!)
over a ppcgeeks, jakdillards have a 21189 ROM thread. check it out. I personally love it and use it on my daily phone.

Thanks Blink. I am downloading the JD Rom now. Will report back.
It is such a shame that XDA has zero activity for CDMA Touch Pro. I loved this community for my Kaiser, Hermes, Wizard, and even Titan. Oh well. I guess PPCGeeks will have to do for our ROM needs.
Works pretty good on Alltel CDMA, not perfect but a great start!
Ok guys, sorry to bother you, please excuse if I sound like a newb on here.
I just bought a Touch Pro (Raphael) from Verizon, and the verizon ROM blows, honestly, so I am thinking about flashin to a better rom, and I'm considering going to 6.5, so I have 3 questions and if someone could please help me I would appreciate it.
#1 Is windows mobile 6.5 worth using? Does is Have TOuchFlo 3D or Manila 3D? And are there even ANY 6.5 ROMS that work with Verizon Raphael?
#2 I've read that SSK is the best 6.1 Rom out, and I would like to try it, but I cannot seem to find a link to it. If someone could post a link I would appreciate it.
#3 This may seem like a dumb question, but is there a way I can backup the ROM from my phone, so I can do a flashback for warranty, etc?
Thanks guys, and keep up the good work!
6.5 is not even "out" yet, its only in beta phases. If you want to be smart, wait until its actually supported by microsoft when it releases this summer,
Honestly I dont think I want to flash my Verizon HTC. I love gadgeting it, but I dont want to risk irreplaceable damage, hence why I make record of my registry edits, etc.
I loaded JD CDMA 6.5 in to my Verizon Touch Pro a few weeks ago. It's pretty damn fast but that was compared to stock rom. Perhaps the 6.1 JD would be much faster as well. It does seem to work and I really like the new user interface. JD's is for Sprint but yet it work ok on Verizon. There are bugs so I would also advise that if you don't want to deal with bugs then wait and go with 6.1 for now (such as 5-10 soft resets before it will actually come up without locking on boot up). I can't give any advice on 6.1.
At the end of the day, I am a Newb as well so this for what it's worth. There are far more knowledgable people out there.
I'm a fan of MitghyROM (currently 4.16) over at PPCGeeks.com.
Its a solid ROM, although you need to downsize the PagePool for the VZW ROM (I hate having to do that).
XBMod is working on TF3D 2 for the 6.5 ROMs, but its also beta. Beta + beta = not such a fun time usually.
They actually have the stock ROMs available at PPCGeeks, so no back up necessary.
Go here...
I cooked a WinMo 6.5 rom, build/version 21202, using SSK (Scott's Simple Kitchen) 1.7, and it worked very nicely on my Verizon Pro. I didn't encounter any bugs, but didn't use it that extensively either. Performance was good, but not as good as the tweaked 6.1 roms I've cooked with the same kitchen. I've been running a rom I cooked in that kitchen, build 20954 with a tweaked XIP by FormerPalmOS, and it is faster than any of the over half a dozen roms I've tried, and boot with about 75 MB of ram free.
i have a sprint touch pro, running nuerom 6.1, am i able to install a 6.5 rom?
yup...sure are
Just make sure to find one you like and that it supports your carrier - if it doesn't natively, then download the appropriate cab to set it up as such.
--PS
Almost every 6.5 ROM out there will work on sprint. NRGs ROM is the best IMO, but that is up to the individual. The only extra thing you need to do is install the Sprint Carrier CABs, but it takes two seconds and works AWESOMELY!!!!
thank, i was interested in trying one of those 6.5 roms,, they look sick
hi i hope im posting in the right section, anyways , i was wondering which roms you thought were best for the verizon touch pro. i ve been reading around and ive heard the mightyroms and energy roms but i would love some input
thanks
Verizon TP
If you want to flash your Verizon TP (i assume a ralph500) then you will have to pick a "lite" ROM most of the others are to big. Verizon TP has less built in memory to work with, I would stay with WM 6.1 also.
Has anyone done one? Im not normally a fan of flashing, but i love the way CHT works, and dont want 6.5 on my TP.
Not sure why you are not liking 6.5...most devs have left and those that are left are only doing 6.5. Keep what you have or adapt...just a friendly suggestion.
