Hi,
Doesn't anyone cook for newer builds? (err, higher builds?)
I'm looking for a nice, clean, simple RAM friendly ROM for my HTC GENE (OLD).
I really like WM6.5.x versions, with the bottom taskbar, etc. However the once available (few) are kinda heavy with too many applications cooked in!
The basics: hibernate, showcase, audio booster+manager, etc are enough. I don't know how many people really need odd apps such as remote desktop, or a pdf reader (there are lighter readers available for free which can be installed). Since these ROMs are cooked for the PUBLIC, the whole of it should be comfortable!
Because as you all know, the GENE doesn't come with much built in ram. The user to begin with is limited to only some 60ish MB ram. So for any purpose at all, the more loaded the ROM is with fancy applications and excessive amounts of customization tools
I'm trying to learn how to cook myself, but i'm at the ultimate lowest level of knowledge !!!! So i'm just doing my reading for now. But seeing some of the works by the real masters here, i kinda feel like getting into it as well.
So if any of you master chefs have a little time on your hand, it'd be highly appreciated if you guys could come up with a ROM for the wm6.5.x versions, maybe builds 28xxx that is very light, yet has ONLY the essentials!

!!
plz check the forum carefully

dude plz dont start threads for such questions
ok wow!
1. there's no problem with me
2. i am using pavanbaw's com8 for old gene
pls don't erupt on someone on their very first reply without trying to figure out exactly what their asking for...
clearly i did not intend any insult to anyone here....nor did I
"question anyone"

those builds contain things like UC web browser, bing, MS tag reader, etc etc. (which even though i'm a noob, i know aren't standard)...
i get around 15-16mb free ram on normal usage. ALL I WAS ASKING was that are there any out there that are very minimally packed with only the faves (audiomanager, showcase, etc...) for the higher builds...
if its too difficult to answer without having to express anger then just close the thread.... i'll just keep looking around, apparantly i haven't searched EVERY single thread in this forum
sorry for the waste of time
that was not anger my dear friend!
but as u can see u cud hav asked the same question in Question and answers thread by the way which is sticky so never goes out of first page
if u hav problem with certain rom ask respective chef
Nyways just keep in mind 1 thing that if every1 starts creating new thread for there questions Gene upgrading thread will look ugly!
hope u understand PEACE OUT
edit:
n well if u dont want certain applications in ur rom u can just ask the op of thread to make a clean rom for u
or u can learn cooking properly n can cook custom clean rom for urself
I m sorry if i showd ny anger in last thread!

dont u find ankit360 rom.....they r lightest one.but i dont know whether he lroviding new build or not.just ask him....dude.....best of luck
Well Sid, the thing is, getting 16-18 MB of RAM on WM 6.5 is absolutely fine with Gene and this is the most you will get whether there are apps on a rom or not. RAM is only taken when a software on the rom installs a background service or runs an application at startup by making a shortcut of it to the \Windows\Startup folder. Just having a software on ROM has nothing to do with RAM, it reduces phone memory only. And there is a limit of how much the phone memory can be. Our phone has a hybrid ROM chip, part of which is NAND and part is NOR (types of flash memory). I dont know which one is which, one one of these is read only and that is where the flashing circuitry starts flashing rom data. If it grows outside the read only region then phone memory is takem for it and marked as read only. So you see, while ROM can grow into phone memory, the reverse is not true. So there is always a limit on how much "lite" the rom can be made.
SO i think if you think you are getting low ram, then use dotfred's to task manager to disable any service that you think is not needed and use a file manager like GSFinder+ to delete unnecessary shortcuts in \Windows\Startup folder. Please do the services part with care as that can many times cause the phone to not boot, if the service is a critical one. A full PIM backup and a full phone mem backup using SKTools or any other backup utility is a good idea before doing these things.
Cheers!
Thanks KAT and Saurabh
I checked his threads, from just a glance, i don't think there are any newer builds by ankit ( ?? )
Ok, basically its not like 16-18 mb is a problem. Question that clouds me is what optimizes the speed of the rom: running less apps at once, cooking with less apps (to incrs space) to begin with, ofcourse what build is being used, etc.
Thanks for the details KAT, a bunch of things i didnt know there
I've been using indresh's UC compatible ROM for a few days now....
Apart from the frequent "automatic reboots" (which i think occur due to PAGEPOOL mismatch???) it seems to work fine. NOW, this rom is giving me 25mb (45%) at normal IDLE usage and 12mb (76%) with youtube, audio manager, adv config, pictures n videos and IE mobile home (internet) RUNNING!!!
But then again, 28002 is said to be good for multitasking .....
BTW, is it true the reboots are because of pagepool?
Cheers!
-appreciate the help guys!

Everybody know brother that automatic reboot rom can't be stable one.......but i have said except that auto.reboot it is good.....
other than automatic reboots its stable indeed.
and i've mentioned this b4, but i get 24mb approximately (give or take..) sometime after starting, on boot i get 26..ish? mb.
auto start, is a problem.... but its not as bad. i've noticed it takes place AFTER you made the device "work" a little bit. it has autorestarted only ONCE during a call (been using this rom for a week or two now).

So time and time again many people ask which is the best rom? Well I was hoping some people could post the rom they are running so I can check their specs and also if they can tell me how well it's running meaning is it stable or occasional hiccups or constant ones.

I'm currently runnning TNT.1437 Touchflo with 10MB page pool.
After installing the rom, on first boot, you will have 43.91Mb of Main Memory and 22.71MB of free ram.
It is quite fast thanks to the increased page pool and is very stable. The only thing I can really find wrong with it, is that the notes application does not work but then again, I don't use it anyway so it really doesn't matter to me.

No official WM6 ROM released for Prophet. The last official ROM is WM5 from Qtek.
As for the best, it depends on your definition. More software packaged? Faster in response? or shorter booting time? How about long term stress test with less memory leak?
It also depends on to what extent you are willing to reconfigure it. No on-size-fits-all.
To me, stability and speed go above all other features. Less software packed mean less possibility to go wrong. Korand's new ROM offers these. I got around 30 software already installed on my SD card, with only one patch of CAB to make up registry and shortcut, all of them runs well.
When something went wrong, it's easier to debug, simply hard reset to original ROM state. (Not if your ROM has already got a lot of software and tweak.)
I like Korand's philosophy to build a clean ROM as platform to others. If anything not so perfect, that would be no Power Point mobile, mms, windows live messenger, and java, make it less official look.
However, Power Point is rather impractical mess in a small screen, the same to mms, WLM, without 3G.
It's really up to personal requirement to decide which one is the best. To me, besides speed and stability, the one puts most fundamental, unchanging stuff inside the ROM, and leaves out constantly upgrading stuff outside, is the best for me, partly because i can do the addon myself.
Here i would also like to take the liberty to implore the authors of cooked ROM, or forum moderators, since many guys ask which ROM is the best for them, why not do a more organized form, list to put on the top of forum.
A clean ROM, the common platform to those variants, can be pick out as a lead, like a pedigree, so people can be easier on tracing problem.
On the other hand, as a user, a beggar can't be a chooser, no author got paid here, so, try and choose one best fit your need...Good luck...

With that lot, I'd suggest Korand 3.1 with the HTC Home installed as a cab. Or may "Merged Reversal" which seems to have fewer bugs...
Always blame the keys... People these days...

That's because we cannot know what you will think of a ROM. The best way to find out is to flash it and see what you like/dislike.

have you found any? if so, can you tell me which ones, please? as i am constantly updating this rom when i find a bug.
I haven't found any yet! Which is why I said it seems to have fewer... Anyway, keep up the great ROMs!
I would recommend k0rand 3.1 as well. If you don't want scrolling then chriskay's reversed rom might be a good choice as well.
you may try pdviet transformer 1.0 by cloudyfa... I'm really enjoying that rom!
SHADOW 2 CE is very good and u can instal any CABs u want
It is really fine and do not like some other ROMs with rainbow colors!
i tried many ROMs and at the end decided to use SHADOW 2 CE + CABs of my choice
Other ROMs r great too, but i always found some unfine parts!
Thanx to all our ROMs cooker they r the best and try to do their best
for me its probably Gullum's rom...
the main thing that i love about his rom is its stable, faster than any other new rom ive tried, responsive keyboard(especially Happy Taping Keyboard), good battery life ....thats it..for me i use it for sms and call, and also web browsing
and i hope to seeing Gullum's 6.1 rom...hehe..for now im using Touch Evolution and is running not too bad for a 6.1
For me I like every ROM that released from every developers. But sometimes some ROM not serve for all my need. So, right now, I still try many times for every ROM.
I will try every new realised ROM, a lot of funs from them
everytime I go back to Korand 2.6.
For me it's the fastest and best at conserving battery.

Korand 3.1 official,
1-Fast booting
^^^^^^^^^^^
As fast as last official WM5 Qtek ROM.
4-more storage space
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yes.
5-Stability
^^^^^^^^
Very stable, even more stable than some official WM5 verison...i believe it's partly because the improvement of WM6.1 over WM5.
6-Not hanged my device
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The same to above.
7-more needed application and software
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The stability is partly based on NOT including unnecessary softwares.
hi
for those who suffer from Flashomania like me ( my own word for a Craze to flash new ROMs)
pls see below link THIS IS FOR OLD GENE ONLY not my ROM so try it if you want just giving the info thats all

Hi Haree,
Even I am a victum of Flashomania .
I am downloading the ROM right now, Will update how the ROM is after testing it for few days.
Hi i am also downloading the rom and will update the feedback soon
Another fully featured rom by Phamquang,
fully Loaded windows plugins every updated tweaks included,
slower than sumit's,helgee and ankit's 6.5.
Haree hav you ever noticed that phamquang roms always have some different features than other roms.And he always integrate the OLD camera.(Don't know the reason,but good for me)
@rakesh_4utoo yes ur right
hi
rakesh
i don't know if u checked (i have posted it long time back)out the previous version to this ie V6 ( i still have not tested this one im busy in a training) but it had both M2d & titanium it was real good but i felt it was draining my battery so i went back to sumits rom
does this one also have both of the above mentioned
i can only test it late in the evening
and to all
dont thanks me Thank Mr.PhamQuam and all credit goes to him i just provided this thats all

Hi Haree,
This ROM has only Titanium (Modded one with extra plugins) and no Manila 2D,
And as the previous v6, this one also drains battery fast.
Basically I felt that all PDAViet ROM have this battery drain issue.
But Still hats off, to all you people her in XDA who keep our GENE's still alive and kicking.
"Thanks So Much for Sharing"
Firstly, Thanks So Much For Sharing this Rom Haree..
Flashed this rom today morning, earlier was using Sumits 6.5 Rom...!!!
Sumits Rom as always is an exceptional rom with real good speed, My phone was having minimum of 17mb Ram free even after hours of extensive testing....However I was struggling to customize panels in my Today screen, I was really struggling with CHome Editor, It wasnt working for me at all..
This Rom on the other hand has a already tweaked CHome editor and is A Very Ready to Use rom, Till now I haven't had any battery draining issues, though it needs to be seen....
The Only Major Drawback with this rom is that you are not left with any free ram after some hours of extensive usage.I am left with just 6.8 mb of free ram...

LOL Addicted, i share similar feeling I think the reason for this is that Mr Pham is having an old gene and he is not interested in helping new gene users. Any argument around this topic is fruitless, it aint gonna happen. On top of that, the roms are protected too so not even others can try.

my points @ addicted
hi
as u are aware i do always suffer from a major flashomania
and i have used all of the Pdaviet Roms
i would give all his roms a 8 out of 10
in fact i really loved his V6 of 6.5 i would give this one a 9
to my knowledge of all the ROMs i have used this is the only one with both M2d&Titanium in the same its like having 2 Roms in one i think this idea was real great and innovative of Mr.Pham (but bad luck u could not try this just kidding buddy)
but wat to do it turned out to be a heavy battery drainer so i had to discontinue using it
For any one who wants to try pls look in this site i have posted it also

What do you guys think is the best ROM for using the touch pro as it is intended to be first and foremost: a phone.
I'm looking for a rom with no hangups when you want to make a phone call, check a text message or send an email. I find that sometimes my phone hangs (quite badly actually) when I try to use the actual phone bit of my fuze. (IE: Tonight I got pulled over for having an unregistered tag, left the reg at home, tried to call my aunt to bring it to me to avoid having my car impounded and low and behold my phone call screen decides to hang for a good 2 minutes... Lucky the cop felt bad for my seemingly ****ty device and I got off with a warning... :\ )
Also, I find it a pain in the arse sometimes to check, reply to my texts on the go. More often than not the screen hangs for a few seconds between the different screens. I find this so much of an annoyance that I've almost stopped texting all together.
I'm using the RRE 6.5 rom at the moment but this is literally draining the life out of me. any suggestions?
Sounds like you treat your phone as I do ... mission critical device.
RRE's series ROM are great ROMs; a lot of attention goes into ensuring they run as hassle free as possible. That said, Windows Mobile 6.5 is still relatively new and there are some kinks that still need to be worked out.
You may want to look at using a feature lite Mobile 6.1 ROM for the time being. A good indicator of stability is when you see the frequency of kitchen/ROM releases slow down.
HTH,
Thanks for the reply, I'm beginning to think that its a 6.5 issue, but even more so a windows mobile issue... Which is a shame because i've always been a fan of the pc-on-the-go experience of wm as opposed to some proprietary OS by some nameless company for a very specific phone that supports nothing.
Maybe i'm just ranting
It depends on what you want in your ROM.
RRE v3 WM6.5 has been running great for me. There's been a v4 and v5, but I'm sticking with v3 for now since it has run great for me.
WM6.5 isn't for everyone though.
If you don't need TF3D (or don't mind installing it via cab), then look in the March 1st Leaked ATT ROM thread and look for the Da_G stripped version. This is plain WM6.1 with NO HTC stuff. Its as bare as you can get, but fast as hell and very stable. You can find cabs for the HTC stuff if you decide to use it.
+ 1 for NRG minus manila. once you take the manila out, the battery life is excellent....granted, i'm on 2.0 now but was pretty good when i ran 3 as well (switched back for 6.1)....
it's now 5 PM and been off charger since 7:30 AM and with a few phone calls and email twice/multiple texts, i've still got 75% left!!
agree with other member, if you want reliable rom, stick with 6.1. 6.5 has a lot of hiccups. But to each its own. My phone has failed me when I need the most but hey how many times does that happen.
install the new touch pro 6.1 official rom 5.11.xx.xx.xx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
i made my rom with just that in mind, making the touch pro a good phone first, and a good ppc second. it runs on 6.1 so no hiccups and i tested it extensively.
arrupenthal makes some good stable roms too :}

He did the right thing. He started a new thread instead of clogging other threads with these questions. No one has to enter this. I've been monitoring this because I'm curious to see what people plug here. It's hard to find practical roms unless you read all 150 pages in each good rom's thread because everyone claims: "fast", "great", "best", "stable"... when they really aren't there yet. It's just that some roms aren't fully troubleshot yet. Some people here want to get their money's worth out of a phone they paid a lot of money for and don't want to devote the better part of a day (at the very least) to find something they'll only find a deal killing bug one month later after spending hours putting programs back on their phone after flashing (even after UC).
Sorry for opinion almost unrelated, but I don't post without some kind of contribution of my own:
I currently have been running RRE v3 and its a great rom, but it has some camera bugs with the auto rotate and wm6.5 has messaging uglies. It is by far my favorite performing rom, but the camera bugs. My phone, to me, has to be a phone, gps, camera and music player. I plan to go back to RRE the latest with the 6.1 rom no manila and put on chome. I'll let you know how it works out.
I hope this thread can be a place in which people can come to take a look at great performing roms and dl packages of optimizing software with little time spent reading through bugs and potential bug fixes. This in mind, I'll be on again tonight after hopefully fully testing what I hope to be my rom for about 6 months only reporting great or bad or good (with Quick fixes only).
Thanks to all the chefs for their time.

I disagree, all the information he wanted was easily accessible. There's no excuse for not taking some initiative instead of opening up yet another "Hey guyz! What's the best ROM out there for my <insert device name here>" thread.
<rant mode=off> ;-)
I agree…asking a question that is answered 100+ times already is not what this site is about. This site is about the developers and people like my self who are members because we like what he developers do should read more and post less.
Remember this:
I this site becomes about he non-developers it will be ruined!

With a win 6.1 and no manila, how looks your today screen? Do you have some kind of screenshot to show?
Thanks
(I'm using an energy 3 rom with win 6.5, and I like the titanium interface, I wonder what I'll use if I go back to 6.1)
I could say that I'm closing this thread out of spite (nobody plugs my ROM? )... but it's not the case. This type of thread is not permitted according to the rules of XDA-Developers.
Although it can seem like a daunting task, the best thing for the OP to do is read through a few ROM threads, the first few posts should suffice, for a list of features and a changelog. [Shameless Plug]. Lastly, check the date of the most recent release, and then jump to the posts from that date, going forward.
