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.

First, let me say thank you to all of the developers as well as users who make suggestions in this forum.
I am overwhelmed with information at this point. I have been using DCD's ROMs for about a year, and currently run 3.3.4.
So where to next for a nice STABLE flash?
6.5 Kitchen Beta 4
M2D 1.3.2
DCD 4.1.2
WM 6.5 build 21159

Roms are mostly personal preference. Flash each one then pick the one you like best.
no opinions?
I'm surprised. So many opinions on other threads, but only 1 post in two days. I was looking for a respose such as:
I recommend _________ because of ____________
For everyday use, go with M2D or DCD.
For playing around or helping beta testers, run one of the beta's and provide feedback for issues.
I am currently running Skip's 1.1 Rom. I would give it a try, I had been using DCD 3.2.6 rom. After a clean install Skip's rom leave with about 25 of ram, after I did my installs it came down to 20mb of ram.

x2 .. R4R 1.3.3 is very nice .. best WM6.1 M2D IMO .. DCD seems to be the
base for most if not all of the WM6.1 ROM out there .. 6.5 is a little different
as it leaks out and a lot of ppl knows how to do translation and or have the
ability to swap out the correct/known .dll's/cpr that affect on-screen text ...
ALL 6.5’s are beta, Built 21139 is more stable as its closer to the final 6.1 build,
6.5 build 21159 is also “now” stable but still lack overall snappiness, issue is
CPU related, so even when the official 6.5 is release that will always remain an
Issue for us Titan guys.. 6.5 is meant for newer phones with more memory and cpu power,
but one way or the other we will have it running stable and clean on our little Titan
But yeah as stated before it’s a personal preference .. and I have personal loaded up
just about every ROM built for the Titan lol
For a M2D 6.1 ROM .. R4R 1.3.3 FTW!! For a none-M2D 6.1 ROM Skip's or one of the DCD’s
for WM6.5 well right now I am working on both lol build 21139 and 21159 so its all good
I need more testers
Another 1-up for Scrosler's (now bitserv's) Titan Reloaded M2D 1.3.3, which came out yesterday. It is a fantastic ROM. I used DCD's 3.3.4 for a long time, since it came out pretty much, and tried the 4.x series but I think it's still in the beta stage, and didn't suit me so I went back to 3.3.4. I wanted a ROM with TouchFlo and this is by far the best one. Big two thumbs up!

Google is your friend. Wow I found dcd after two button pushes. Try googling "dcd 4.1.2: and pick the second link. then try the first download link. Most recent roms will be in recent threads.
I'm running Drellisdee's 6.1 Titan ROM.
Never been happier. It is quick and very stable.
FYI, DCD 3.3.4 had bugs in it that DCD himself realized that he couldn't fix and he abandoned it.
DCD 3.2.6 was stable, but the TitanReloaded actually is built on it and fixed bugs in it and freed up even more memory with a more optimized boot image, so if you want to run DCD 3.2.6, I'd actually recommend just using TitanReloaded 1.3.4 and disabling touchflo (M2D).
DCD 4.1 is beta, but DCD needs beta testers. If I had time to beta test other ROMs besides my own, I'd be testing one of the windows 6.5 ones, though.
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.

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.
Ok, now I wouldn't mind making my own ROM, but I started to follow the directions on how to do this, and is says to use some other ROM. Does this mean I can use say RRE's ROM and a new kitchen and use that, or am I missing something. I have a lot to learn I'm sure, but once I get started on this, I should be able to figure the rest out. Thanks for any help anyone can give me. I know there are some smart people on here
U need an official rom to dump and to work as a base rom, i advise the new 5.11.
Good cooking.
ahhh. Ok, where do I find the ROM's for 6.5? So, this 5.11, is this 6.1 or 6.5, and is this the latest official rom from htc? I just downloaded that one, and the performance for 6.1, actually seems good, even my choppy Peggle game is less choppy now, almost smooth.

5.11 is the latest Fuze ROM. It is certainly 6.1, but somehow (magic?) Da_G included core files into his 6.5 kitchen.
Then i think u should read a bit, start with Da_Gs kitchen, 6.1 or 6.5, your choise, cause in the end only should know what´s better for you.
Nice studying.
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.
I didn't think this would be so hard to do, but, i cannot for the life of me find those two.
All i want is the latesst stock windows mobile 6.5 and 6.5.x for sprint.
If you all in the know could send me a link/s to them i would really appreciate it.

sorry, but there are only 6.1 stock roms for sprint's TP. Other than that, the newest stock rom is on HTC's website.
Thanks, gone back to using jd's clean version.
he managed to put in the one thing i needed to annoy the hell out of shipper/receivers when im out on the road.
Now i just gotta find me some decent icons to replace these crappy black and white ones and im good to go.
