[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] yellovv23:
[Warning, theres alot to read :p]

Hi All,

Just want to say a big thanks to all the great developers out there such as Dutty, Miri, topix, energyrom, xannytech.. etc.

Without you guys I think I would have sold my HD a long time ago.

I think I have flashed my Hd almost every day or two, since I had my hands on it. As there has always been a bug or two in every rom.

I have been a long time fan of Dutty's rom. But now that its stopped at the holy grail r0, the builds have been updated. Its great to have used his roms, but its still not perfect. So recently I've started looking again at other cookers.

I've been using WM 6.5 for a long time and I don't think that will change. But recently I have tried every combination wm6.1/m2.1, wm6.5/m2.1 wm6.5/m2.5 of different cookers, and tested. To see whether I have been missing out on anything.

I've finally come to a conclusion that wm6.5/m2.1 was the most stable and smoothest rom around. That brings me to Miri's roms. I've tried the wm6.5/2.5 v18 and wm6.5/m2.1 v35.

Miri's Wm6.5/2.5 v18 was great, but like every m2.5, it is still abit slow. and since I dont like the new HTC messenger, I would lose out on the mms. Well I dont really miss mms that much, but I've been without it for 6month+. And if I try to install Opera 10 on it, my pop up menu's were all screwed up and its one of those things I couldn't accept.

So lastly I went and tried Miri's wm6.5/m2.1 v35. And I must say, I think this is the one. There are a few bugs there, but I will post the links down to fix them.

First is the Miri's Rom: //xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=493911

Before flashing Miri's rom there are a few things I would like to note

1. lockscreen delay that you would most likely want to fix by adding a file into your storage card.

2. Pagepool changer to make the rom amazing :) I've tried countless sizes, but I've come to a conclusion that setting my pagepool number to 0 was the most effective.

Now you can flash the rom :)

After installing, you would notice on the settings tab that the line is missing between communications and customise tabs. And the line between g-sensor would flicker when you scroll down to it.

This is the list of things I would install:

1. Autolock - install csdevctrl.6.5.cab and play with the settings to your liking.

2. Chinese support - Just a unicode to read asian languages,

3. 2d/3d driver by Neos2007 - make wonders for games on HD and also seems to fix the line problems on the settings tab.

4. Gfxboost by Chainfire - This is abit complicated, it doesn't boost the graphics, it's more like it smoothens the display. So its more pleasant..

5. Opera 10 beta - This is sooo much better than any other browsers. When you load a webpage, it used to show those annoying blocks that hasn't loaded. Not anymore! anyways no harm to test right? Just flash hasn't been implemented into it yet. But i dont mind..

6. HD Tweak - Im sure most ppl know this one. I just use this to change the left and right keys on the home screen. And turn off the sms sent notification. Thats about it :p

Just a note, although there is autolock function in HD tweak, it doesnt work that well. As soon as the backlight goes off, it doesnt come back on till you push the power button and back again.

Lastly: Im not a fan of the HTC task manager. So I normally turn it off by disabling the quick menu on today screen tick box. And just shortcut in programs tab to MS task manager.

Thats all I had to share :)

Hope you find your rom that works for you. This one just happens to work perfectly for me..
