Why flash to ROM: 1.31.707.09 (HTCAsia WEE)

Why flash? is it better than my original Norwegian flash that came right from the store? What is new in the ROM: 1.31.707.09 (HTCAsia WEE)?
I flashed the HTCAsia WEE because the Orange ROM I had was too bloated for my liking, kind of ran a little slow. With this ROM I'm finding my device running a bit faster
Ok. But I got the regular rom, not the "orange" one. Would it be any faster or would it be totaly like, just not Norwegian language?

To be honest with you I don't know if it will be any faster, as I reckon your existing ROM maybe same as the HTCAsia WEE but language in Norwegian.
I changed my ROM because from my own personal experience every Orange UK ROM based device I ever owned have always been bloated and sluggish, I don't what S*** Orange put in their ROM that makes them run so slow!!!
Anyways, the only way to see if there is any difference, is for you to flash this ROM but make sure you make a backup of your existing ROM i.e ROM DUMP just in case you want to revert back!
P.S. Did you try the speed reg tweak? that I posted in this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355122
try it out, believe me you'll notice a big jump in performance!!! I used this tweak on my previous Orange ROM and it made a big difference!

Use the kaiser Rom Kitchen Dump, it should work although I have not tried it my self!
Check this thread:

Alternatively if you can wait and play safe, I'm sure there will be specific Niki Rom Kitchen Dump utility available here.
@ gfreek
I am correct in assuming you have a uk orange branded touch dual, and if so have you noticed a big difference after flashing the asia rom
where can i find the new rom?
do i have to make any uspl or cid unlock?and how?
thanks

Make sure you read the instructions set by jockyw2001 otherwise you may run into trouble i.e. brick your phone!

Sorry to hear that reg tweak didn't work for you!! Just curious are you using the HTC task manager? if so I would recommend you disable that as I find it slows the OS down and use a 3rd party task manager e.g. SPB Pocket Plus or WKTask you can get here: http://soft.photoracer.net/docs/wktask.html

I'm afraid I have to disagree with you on this one NetrunnerAT! yes you can do some reg tweak to improve your existing ROM however, since I flashed this ROM here's are the 3 main things that I have noticed compared to my previous Orange UK ROM:
- more responsive (little faster)
- HTC Weather panel updates automatically, in previous ROM I had to do it manually!
- WMDC Bluetooth Sync more consistent, in previous ROM it worked every now and then, got so frustrated ended up syncing with USB instead!!!
Now I'm not saying this HTCAsia WEE ROM guarantees you improvements over your existing ROM but it's no harm trying! (providing of course you've done a backup of your existing ROM) I personally think anyone with a Orange ROM should see some improvements in fact I was so adamant that I would see some benefits to flashing this ROM that I didn't even bother to do a backup of my bloated Orange ROM need I say more!!
This answer ist possible!
I dont know, what Orange done. If some guys have unbranded ROMs ... they dont need the Asia Rom.
ROM Version
Good evening
I have a Orange branded touch with t9 keyboard:
Operator-Version: 25.131.5.7209
ROM-Version: 1.31.72.09
Rom-Date: 10/31/07
Radio-Version: 1.58.16.27
Protokoll-Version: 25.61.30.03H
I have bought a SanDisk HCSD 6GB and it won't recognize it as 6GB. It only shows 866MB in the task-manager. In my HTC touch (other device) it recognizes it well.
Can this problem be resolved by updating the Rom to the 10.31.707.09 WEE?
Thanks for your appreciated help!

Hi there... how do I disable the htc task manager? Just got my touch dual via TMobile UK not long ago... seems a bit disappointing... with the reaction times between me pushing a button or touching the screen, and the device recognising what i did.
Pretty sure my magician was much more responsive.

[Request] Original 6.5 ROM

Hey all,
Kind of an odd request. Have been enjoying all the cooked ROMs here lately but have been interested in trying an original, untouched ROM -- one of the leaked ones from MS. Can anyone point me to a place I can get them?
Thanks so much!

Maybe I'm wrong but I don't thing any untouched ROM available for TP is out. I thought the cooks had based their work on a rom image for a specified device and each rom for each device was adapted to run on it.

You can always grab Da_G kitchen, follow the steps descibed and make a clean rom. It 's an easy step by step procedure. I have done it before even I 'm not a "chef".

* O * M * G * !!! I totally just cooked my own ROM! LOL! Flashing as we speak, thank you for that suggestion, that WAS really easy. Now to see just how "original" I made it, since I didn't know what 3/4 of the stuff I was selecting/unselecting are.
EDIT: Works great! But hm! Seems everything but the camera and Smart touch are working.
Good to hear that worked for you. As far as the camera problem, maybe you left out something when cooking. For the smart touch you can use
tnyynt SmartTouch -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2547231&postcount=68
Have a nice cooking
PS. There is a new chef in town or what??? LOL
Try changing the camera app to make it work
Da G's Clean ROM and Timolol are very close to stock ROMs.

[04/07][ROM][XWKF3]ThiaiZ V0.2 Stock,stable,fast

Welcome to ThiaiZ V0.2
I saw that a lot of people out there would like a stock,stable,fast and rooted ROM, so i decided to make one on my own, keeping it as much as stock as possible.This is my first SGS2 ROM (got the device for 3 days ago), coming from HTC Desire which i have always developed my own ROMs.Be patient and I do really want to help this community to grow and find the best for this incredible peace of engineering called Samsung Galaxy S II.Suggestions are always welcome.
Here is how it looks:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgWJcjYbJVA
Features:
-Base: XWKF3.
-Kernel: CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEU_KE2-v4.0-CWM4.(Thanx ChainFire)
-Deodexed,Zipaligned and Signed.
-Some extra tweaks for speed and memory.
-Camera tweak.
-Everything from Samsung is still there.
-Gtalk 1.3 with video
-Native android SIP stack for Wifi AND 3G calls
-No themes (as I said, I want it stock).
-The only change is startup wallpaper.
-CRT animation. "Sorry for that guys,but u can disable it anyways"
-Desktop as Browsers UA as default. "Ops, sorry for that too, but i said i would do".
Changelog V0.2
-Apk tweaks for speed (it seem to have worked).
-Phone.apk bug from v0.1 is fixed here.
-Changed to this Kernel CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OJV_KF1-v4.0-CWM4.zip - Come on guys, choose the kernel that fits your Rom better, the one here works better for my needings, so feel free, there are lots out there.
Known bugs:
-You tell me, please.
How you Install it:
http://www.multiupload.com/1DAB68308S
-Download and copy the .ZIP file onto your SD or Phone.
-Restart device in CWM (Vol up + Home + power)
-Backup your old Rom
-Wipe data + cache (All your data will be gone)(V0.2 itself will wipe your data)
-Choose "Install Zip from SD card"
-Browse the .ZIP file and install it.
-Boot device and ENJOY.
-I'm not responsible for your mistakes you should know what you are doing.
**I do really recommend the use of Tegrak Overclock**Buy it from Market.
-I do play a lot and we know that some games like (Asphalt 6) are made to not use the whole GPUs power , it means lower FPS.But at the same time I want a longer battery life the screens to move smoothly and i don't want the device to overheat, so what I did is.
-Install Tegrak Overclock
-Load the modules
-Go to GPU optmization and change values to:
-267 - 975 and 200 - 950, if it works for me should work for you too.

one must use a kernel matching the ROM right? KF3 kernel for a XWKF3 ROM . I see that you have used a KE2 kernel. I am still new to android..

You can actually use the Kernel you think fits better,at least for now when all the Roms out there are based on official samsung bases and so are the kernels.When I first excrated the Base, a KF1 kernel came together, but i decided that this one just works better.I'm gonna start doing a research about kernels, cause i don't think any of those out there matchs my expectations 100%.

Just the latest Nordic base.If u ask me if this Rom is better than the others ? I would answer that all the Roms out there are pretty much the same, have tried all of them.But this is stock and has no bugs that i have found.

need to flash amss and dsp1?? or just go ahead??
hey if are coming from froyo then u have to flash
If. u r coming from Other GB Tom Then no need
okei buddy..flashing now!!
will give this a shot..
nice job.. for now only thing is having little bit laggy when playing HD games..
but that's not a big deal..other than very stable..no any FCs,no WIFI issues
coming from the original Power_Rom...flashing right now will give my feed back after some testing.
Edit: working amazingly. No fcs, no reboots, no wifi issues, really fast, and seems rock solid. Keep up the great work. BTW just flashed over without a factory reset, just cleared stated datas..
nice !! good job
many thank

just my opinion here..
I think it'll be better that you flash the stock olleh rom 1st, then you can just go ahead flash this rom without amss and dsp1...
that just make it more simple, clean & safe...
@mr. abhiman
I was thinking 'bout this rom since I've found sod experiences in almost other custom roms there....
now you have this great idea & you have done this "near to stock" rom, so every streakers here (with bugs problem in customs) should be happy
I think it'll be more fun if you add more themes then split them to each parts... so streakers here can choose what theme they will use...
Check out this thread, you can customize any GB rom!

I think themes depend upon personal likings
so I think you should cook the themes using UOT or any other ways
if you like you can share them here.
@sachi9121
I think 3d games lag because kernel is no OC
and this Tom is focused on removing bugs and keep it close to stock
if you want some perf try flashing power_mod for more perf
I hope this solves
@others Your feedback is always welcome
I think the battery is bad
1 hour standby battery lost 10%
yeah i did it perf_power works fine..but its getting reducing my battery quickly..
so any chance of using batterycharger script to this??
and for the records Perf_battery has a some sort of WIFI issue..
reboot,reconnect,reassociate nothing works..
@ivantastic
seems to be fine..ill check it..thanks
that's why this rom born
lite and stable

FM not work with streak radio.apk or spirit fm radio..what is the app should use??
sent from streak power_rom lite(under testing)
download done...
before flashing, few questions here:
1. how about "themanii's warning"?
2. can i cook the framework & system base from the original olleh's framework & system? will the ics's taste & effect will loose? because I dont think it'll work if I cook from this rom's framework & system.
3. I dont see the "bootanimation" file in media as I've always found in other, give me some advise please... or does it mean this rom is without "bootanimation"?
btw, I can see the "tweak" in this rom, very nice my friend I just no doubt at all about your "tweaking value" must be great tweaking in this rom.
will try this rom a.s.a.p
thanks for this great rom my friend
you can add bootanimation.zip to systemm/media
actually framework contaaains add Res
that's reboot opt in power menu

about the framework & system.ui, so?
& how about the manii's warning about the olleh rom? (he doesn't confirm about the safety yet)
Gkernels is a project based on the 4.05 Dell source, is it fine to used in this base olleh rom?
need more detail please...

Btw, Can someone from the super-cool developers of 8552 please upload a Clean Rom?
Clean rom = non customised, non-rooted, no extra things installed Stock rom, but after removing all the samsung crap out of it.
None of the bloatwares.
No weather widget, no stock widget (who uses this sh#t anyways) nothing.
Just a plain, fast rom.
Thanks in advance..
PS: Btw, cyanogenmod project for our device is totally dead?
i am trying to compress the rom as possible. second thing if you want to move this thread just report moderator by caution triangle on top of your post.

I would not recommend Baidu as it's not the fastest Rom, yet the most beautiful Custom Rom for Quattro till date. Also a little less battery backup than stock as it has not power saving mode. Using greenify might solve this issue, but I forgot trying greenify when I was using it. I quit Baidu because of low earpiece volume duing call and same for speaker phone.
I would recommend Whacky Rom as it is based on latest stock Rom with tweaks to make it clean and beautiful yet quick enough to enjoy.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2687763
My overall experience is that no rom is better than the original Stock Rom (Ofcourse Rooted). :good: Odexed Rom are most stable ones. Stock Rom is most stable and good until unless you regularly clear the unnecessary cache files(maybe via Clean Master app or wipe cache). I am into Whacky Rom currently because it looks nearly stock and beautiful status bar it has. Transparent just like kitkat. I'll stick to it and soon make it customizable to my requirements.
