Special Thank to BesFen, he helps me making an Manila 2D enabled new ROM and give me many good suggestions.

Rom Selection Guide:

There are so many ROMs on my thread that the new comers can hardly find which one fit their needs. This section will describe each ROM concisely and state my suggestion.

->If you want a stable ROM with Chinese support:

The main series of "clean and stable" ROM will fit you best. This ROM is also well supported by me and the stability is evaluated by time. I recommend you the b221 ROM.

->If you want to try something new and bleeding edge versions

The WP 6.5 series ROM fit you best.

->If you want to try Manila 2D enabled ROM:

There are 2 versions: Jade version and Besfen version. I do not support the Jade version very well due to time limitation. Besfen version is newer and supported by him. I think you can try Besfen's version first.

->If you want to make your own customization:

Try my kitchen. It is supported by me and you can ask questions about it.

->If you want ROMs of other languages:

There are CHS, CHT, GER versions.But they are unsupported and a little old. The stability is OK.

->If you want Atom ROM:

THere are Atom-R2 Rom here. But it is not supported. You can try it.

HP6828 Clean and Stable WM6.1 WWE rom:

The rom have Jade's kernel and kaiser's system as the base. The pagepool is 6M for stability as well as performance.

Kitchen World:

The kitchen is a set of tool and files to rebuild and customize the ROM for convinence. I hope cookers enjoy these tools. I also released the non-supported 20273 system in hope of external force to stabilize it. Atom's kitchen is a little old. But it is still a good base to build atom's ROMs. Update f is essentially a new 6.5 kitchen. You can enjoy that more.

Donation
