I do not believe it to be very stable. I stick with 4.0.0.5b cross, witch is the best rom I found up to date. The cube isn't in this rom.
I am using PV 4.0.0.0.6 at 818pro and it dosen't hang so far, just got a auto turn on problems. anyway, this is the first Rom I tried.

Just for information, My Dopod 818 Pro was flashed to Gullum V6 and still monitoring the capability, after 2 days - everything works good even i change the pool size to 6MB. Just some little problem with the phonepad when i write down the sms and a calling is coming. the screen was freeze.. and i need to reset
yes it is the nicest rom yet but I confirm several random freezes that require reset.
keep it up gullum !
Yes, gullum V6 is the best rom that I have used up to know - and the freezing - i noticed that in most of the cases the system "unfreezes" after 2 minutes or so even without soft reset
Well the last Gollum V6 is not bad but i had some strange popup error messages while using TT6 (replog.exe, call something.exe), and sometimes the phone just freezes (I had Tomtom running and I tried to make a call and it just froze showing dialing)
im usein gulum's v6 its a good rom . but 4.0.0.0.5b is the best rom i think the battery consumption is very nice in that rom.
yes , 4.0.0.0.5b is the best ROM i have tried .... battery just 4% for a day if you don't use it ....
Definitively the PDAViet 4.0.0.0.5b is the most stable e bugless, dont have freezes, low battery consumption, and with Tomtom is very good. But this is my opinion
Pdaviet 4005B for sure. No problems so far, works stable
testimoni
I believe each ROM from gullum or PDAVIET has own plus n minus features and performance.
this is my testimony for each ROM :
A. PDAVIET 4.0.0.0.5b
- Very good battery life ( more than 3 days without charging)
- Some application doesn't work with this ROM, specially input device application such as phonepad.
- Speaker Sound not to clear.
B. Gullum V6
- Worse battery life than PDAVIET but still better than other ROM (2.5 half without charging)
- Battery indicator sometimes is mistaken.
- Fast application launching
- Good sound performance
But from all my testimony about these ROMs. They are very nice and suppose to be used by you other than original WM5.
Good Job to both of you.. Gullum n PDAVIET.
I am still waiting your best effort for new ROM release.
tb146,
when you mentioned sound performance, do you mean the built in speaker or also the sound going through the headphone jack?
Hi! I have a O2 XDA Neo.
I tried many ROms, but in no one its possible to have access to my Storage Card. What can I do?
Thanks
P.S: Where do I get 4.0.0.5b?`I don't know if I tried it, but I would like to test it again, perhaps I haven't load it down.
Shauni: is it really so hard to use your eyes? The 4.0.0.5b topic is a few lines beneath this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321832
You know, sometimes its better to use the brain. Good luck
OMG! sry.... i didn't see it. really. THanks
The question aboput my problem you can't solve, or?
I can only suspect that the problem is with your SD card. Please describe it.
Using Gullum V6 since a week. Never had any freeze.
Faster and more stable than previous official WM5 ROM.
Battery drain is a little faster, though.

Hi there,
the sound come from the speaker, i never use the headphone.
Hi,
thx for the Response. I have a problem with the SD Card. Means, when I insert the Card, the File Explorer don't detect it. I tried some different cards, no one works.
Should I try another Rom?
I would like to use WM6 with Touch Flow <perhaps a 3D Cube?> and the office apps. Perhaps someone knows a good version with a working SD Support for my O2 XDA.
Thanks.
My Hermes is Currently on 1.51.00.10 with rom version 3.54.255.3
Battery is getting absolutely caned and service seems to be very patchy.
Has anyone else flashed their T Mobile Hermes? I know T won't be upgrading to 6, which is kinda lame.
I've got WM6 Black Satin and radio rom 1.43.00.00
Battery seems to be taking a beating with Bluetooth on as well.
Other than that it's totally brilliant.
Doogs.
I am on 1.50 that comes with the T Mobile WM6 (not for sale) Rom.
Seems to be working lovely and battery life fine bu I do use the streaming alot so purchased a nice cheap second battery on Ebay.
I've got 1.50 and Black Satin and find thats pretty much okay, helps if you do things like turn down the screen brightness and turn of 3G/HSDPA unless you absolutely need high speed data transfers.
GPRS works pretty well for my e-mail and web browsing.
I do love web n walk
I'm on schap's 3.60a and radio 1.50...battery does seem to get drained but i have 3g/hsdpa on all the time and syncing with windows live and exchange server. Do need to recharge th ebattery everyday.
Im with TMobile as well, Im currently on:
ROM: Black Dymond
Radio: 1.41.00.10
Location: London
I tend to charge my phone every evening, so cant comment on the battery life.
My reception kinda sucks though, any suggestions as to what the best radio version is?
I've been using 1.50 since it came out, and it's definitely a good 'un! The 3G/HSDPA signal works perfectly (1.51 doesn't work on 3G for T-Mob UK) and download speeds are generally 900kbps+ when the network isn't playing silly beggars. Call quality seems OK, but I don't actually use my phone for calls much. Battery life is fine, but again I play with it so much that I always charge every night.
Plus, the version number is higher than all the 1.4x ones, and everyone knows a higher version number is more important than almost anything else!!!

Really? That can't be right, stuff loads lightning fast when it actually works.
Actually the little 3G icon on the phone sometimes changes to an 'H' also. That kinda weirded me out.
I might try going back to something earlier.
I get the H icon appear but only get like 120kbit/s or 190 max?
Isnt 900 like you mention the above the equivilent of nearly a 10mb line or have i got my bytes and bits mixed up or something lol?
I switched from the official WM5 that came with the Vario II to the unofficial W6 with radio 1.50. At the beginning it was working ok, however battery life was about 50% of what it used to be, so not too great but ok.
Recently the phone part freezes more and more, especially when I try to dial, ‘dialing’ just hangs on the screen, and after a while I get a 'operation failed' balloon. The phone also looses signal quite often and switches between GPRS and 3G, although my office normally has excellent T-Mobile reception. Only soft resetting brings back the signal, and sometimes I even have to repeat this several times.
So this morning I switched to 1.48, but still seem to have the same problem loosing the signal.
Maybe I should just try installing the whole ROM again, cause I can’t figure out if a particular software is causing the problems. and it seems I'm the only one who has these problems.
One thing though, I am definitely 100% sure that this unofficial T-Mobile Rom was not intended for the Vario II. Maybe for the new Kaiser, but TM was and is definitely not working on updating old Window Mobile 5 devices already sold.
I have a similar pattern of poor reliability and battery drain emerging after a very good start with Radio 1.50. I can't see why this would happen though, it was originally very good and I have only installed one new app since then (SPB Time, which I took off again).
Currently almost all calls drop within 2 minutes and Internet Sharing is intermittent over 3G/H.
Anyone recommend a stable Radio for Tmob UK?

I went back to 1.46 and internet sharing is rock solid and it seems better with regards to holding a signal.
It's not perfect but pretty close, still have the occasional missed call without the phone ringing but thats exagerated because I am on a borderline 3g 3g area, batt life is good too.

OK, I'm sold, I will have a go with it and report back.
I'm still using 1.27 tried 1.40.30 and 1.50 and a few others but although data was fine on them i had loads of people who couldn't get through to me, straight to answer phone or would ring there end but not mine. never had a problem with 1.27 but will keep trying the new ones
I have been using 1.50 since it came out and have not had any problems with it at all. Battery life is very good. Phone rings after 1-2 rings on the other end. No dropped calls due to my end.
Will look out for the problems people seem to be having here though.
I have just changed my UK T-Mobile MDA Pro for a Vario 2, and one of the first things I did was to flash it with the unofficial T-Mobile WM6 upgrade. After about a day, I started to experience lockups on the phone and GPRS. So I went back to WM5 (found a T-Mobile WM5 on the Wiki, albeit Hungarian!). That cured the lockups. The weird thing is that the radio remained as the upgraded 1.50.
My conclusion is, WM6 is not yet compatible with T-Mobile UK.

Syd, don't give up so easily on WM6! I've been using it since the first test ROMs surfaced - the main reason being I wanted to get rid of the daily lock-ups I was experiencing on WM5. I haven't had a lockup for months now, and can go several days without resetting the phone (generally do it whenever the available RAM figure gets lower than I'd like). The T-Mobile WM6 ROM was just a test ROM and as such may well have bugs. I'd suggest trying some of the Chef cooked ROMs over on the WM6 forum, or trying Pandora if you know what you want.
T-Mobile and WM6 make a wonderful partnership, believe me!

Confused Stu, Thanks for those encouraging words. I will indeed take the plunge again, and go for a cooked WM6 ROM. At the moment, I am torn between TNT 2.0 and Schap's Pro 3.6.
Thanks again for the reassurance.
I got my Vario II at the weekend so I can't really comment on improvement from the defaults, but I upgraded straight away to Schap's Pro 3.6 and the 1.50 radio and everything is stable.
I am thinking of changing to Black Satin though, just to see the difference.
Yet to really put the device through a tough test though, will let you know if I manage to get a day's use out of it when I'm caning it hard.
I've had 1.50 for about a month. It took me a while to realise I was NEVER getting 3G (I put it down to TM's flakey coverage at first!).
Also noticed I kept failing to get to the phone in time to answer calls (2-3 rings max) - At first I though my voicemail setting were too aggressive, then I tested by calling myself and realised it was ringing 2-3 times before the Hermes even woke up I put this down to the usual windows bloat at first but after reading here I see other people associate this problem with the radio firmware.
Oh, and battery life is appalling. Have been caught out several times, and it's down to 20-40% by the evening if I don't use it for anything. Definitely DOESN'T make it through the night if I forget to charge.
Just gotta work out which version to switch too... !

PLEASE LET US KNOW HOW IS IT.
if it solve the memory leakage problem .
And if the battery doesn't drain so fast.
Eh...what memory leakage? I have been using the previous WM6 ROM for several months, and the few times I have to do a soft reset (maybe once a week, max twice) it's because the WiFi isn't working after a sync.
More longer you use it, the memory leakage will be solve alittle by alittle.
For more than 1 month without hardreset, i able to get 27mb free RAM after reboot and the 2G MiniSD still inside.
Megaupload is very annoying. I've uploaded the ROM to http://rapidshare.com/files/59257870/Xda_Atom_Life_WM6_WWE_RC2140907B2.exe.html

Well, memory leak is a real problem. If you use ActiveSync, MMS, Windows Live, then you would be haunted by the memory leak.
Anyway, this version solves some problem,
1) Windows Live feature does not try to connect to GPRS/3G anymore if you are connected to the internet via WiFi.
2) Esmertec Java is replaced by JBlend. Welcome 3D to Java world!
3) O2 Connect service is improved... a little. Never use it though... the downside is, you can't remove it, but you can disable the service.
Allso...
after update the Rom i see a that the Radio change:
OLD : AL1-KLNC-2.3.40T-070601-2
NEW: AL1_KLNC2340_070905_RS001
don't know if mean somthing.
one more thing.
The Camera is now Fixed, the zoom is working, and it's much faster.
It also looks like that the memory leakage problem is less annoying
last night after the Rom updae I had 21.72 MB now after 8 hours I have 21.70 MB.
I hope that the problem has gone away.

Is there any hang when updating ROM? I read some many threads from other forums, sometimes Atom Life hangs when up ROM. If no, I will update ROM then. If yes, please let me know how to avoid it.
Any comments are highly appreciate.
Thanks in advanced.
I have had no hanging problem. Thankyou.
But, I am facing two problems :
a) Phone restarts w/o reason many times (This problem existed earlier aswell, b4 ROM upgrade)
b) When I use Wi-Fi, and after display goes into stand-by mode (after non-usage for a while), the phone display doesnot come back. (NEW PROBLEM, after ROM upgrade). The only option I have is to soft reset.
Phone resets are usually not software, but hardware related. Often bad battery connections.
The reason why I don't have a memory leak is probably that I don't use any of the Windows Live stuff. That's for kids, and I'm past 40...
But I have a problem with this ROM: The phone doesn't charge when it's connected to my computer with the Active Sync cable. It used to charge, only very slowly. Now the battery slowly drains instead! Does anybody else see this?
About the memory leak, if you didn't run any applications like MMS application, Windows Live, ActiveSync, then you are safe. Anyway, if you soft reset the device and doesn't use it to run any applications for 8 hours, you won't get a memory leak. You need to use the device to run applications to see it. But some are not memory leak. It is the way Windows work. Some code (shared modules) are not released after used because it is hoped that the next applications the user open will be using the same shared modules. The phone application (cprog.exe) also consume quite a lot of memory if you have a lot of contacts. After using it to dial and receive calls, you'll notice that it will be consuming more and more memory. So, on average, you will get around 10mb of free main memory.
Regarding device restarting itself, I only get this when I was using WM5 rom. Actually it doesn't restart itself, it shutdown itself (turned off completely). After using three WM6 rom releases, I haven't have this issue. So, it might have been hardware related (like battery). It might also be 3rd party application like PhoneAlarm. For PhoneAlarm, the device might soft reset after receiving SMS.
Regarding device freezing, I'm not having this problem also. If I do, I know that it is caused by any 3rd party applications I've installed. To investigate this part, you'll need to hard reset and force yourself to try using the device for about a week to see if it still freezes. If it does, bring it back to O2 for warranty claim.
Regarding the latest ROM update, I noticed that the camera DID start faster but the video recording is way too slow. During video recording, the frame rate on the screen is very very very very slow. For the photo shot, the shooting is quite quick but the saving part (save to main memory) is slower compared to previous rom.
I get what you mean about the memory leak. I only use NetRemote (which closes itself completely and doesn't leave anything), Pocket IE (which I up to now have closed with PocketPlus, but I have dumped PP because it gave me a few phone problems every now and then), the phone part and contacts and calendar. But I do active sync, and I haven't seen any problems there.
Well, I have faced 2 problems with this WM6 ROM:
1/ The battery life is no longer than the WM5 it maybe drains the battery more quickly. The old one I used for 2 days in normal condition (call, listen music, radio and a little bit Wifi) while new one with the same condition I only used it for more than 15 hours.
2/ When using wifi more than 30 minutes continuously, the battery become so hot (hotter than the WM5 version).
Does anybody face these problems above? If you know how to overcome them please share me.
Any comment is highly appreciate.
hello guys... I have a question..
right now I am using WM6 Chinese version, is it possible for me to upgrade to WM6 ENG version???
if so, how to do it?

You get 15 hours? With my normal use (without bluetooth on), getting 12 hours is considered lucky for me. With bluetooth on, 8 hours and it is dead.
Same goes with WM5.
for starters ... want to apologize if people feel I should have posted in an existing thread rather than starting a new one. I have searched quite a bit and couldn't find an answer to the several questions I have. That said ...
I live in Bangalore India, and recently purchased a TP. It's an Idea Cellular branded model which in all the advertising is listed as a 7276 (though Device Info says 7272). The phone does not have a front facing camera, though it does have the Q7201a chip - so it should be capable of 3G.
The problems I'm facing are quite a few, and I'm wondering if it's Radio, ROM, carrier, etc.. and I'm hoping the members of this forum also in India can help point me in the right direction.
BTW - my phone is unlocked and I'm using Airtel in Bangalore.
a. battery life is aweful
b. wifi has poor signal strength and resets every couple minutes
c. GPS won't fix on a satellite
What ROM / Radio combination have you found to work well?
Have you gotten GPS to work.
If using Airtel have you gotten NOP or Airtel Live to work?
Do you use wifi successfully?
Background Details

A.
With the stock ROM the phone would run through it's battery in about 1/2 a day. Sitting on my nightstand with BT, WIFI, GPRS all turned off and not getting a single SMS or call, it would deplete by close to 20%.
I've tried a few other ROMs and have had various results ... the new HTC ROM is ok, but still BAD. Elite RC3 seemed better. AtomAng's newest and Energy ROM 2.0 31709 both chew through the battery pretty bad. When making/receiving a call or SMS the battery will deplete by 2~4%, but will otherwise be OK if sitting idle.
I'm suspecting it could be carrier related as I switch between Edge and GPRS constantly.
B.
Sitting within a meter of my Linksys Dual N router, I get 1mbps transmit and it resets every minute or so. If I walk upstairs, I can pretty much kiss my signal goodbye. With my VOX I could hold the signal no problem. This has been consistent with every ROM I have used.
C.
I have tried every hack and setting I can find on this one...
Using any tool I can see in the upwards of 16 satellites, but will never lock onto even a single one. I left my phone plugged in and sitting on the window ledge last night ... 3 hours and still not a single lock.
This is the 2nd handset from Idea as well ... the 1st one had audio problems and was replaced with a completely new handset.
Thanks for any help...I really want to like this phone, but right now I can't see me keeping it much longer.

pics will help
Hi Rob,
If you send a couple of pics, me or someone else maybe able to give you better directions:
1. open the keyboard, take a pic of the whole device from the front
2. open the battery cover, remove the battery and take a pic, please black out the IMEI number before uploading this pic, I do not know any other sensitive info.
I have a suspicion it maybe a rebranded fuze, in that case flash the latest radio 1.12.25.19 and try EnergyROM 1.7 or for latest interface 2.0 (31809). But let me see the pics.
About GPS, I usually do not get a lock from a ROM until I download data in QuickGPS, try that. I think for our geographic location that matters.
Try NATF Roms
I was visiting India last month and was using my AT&T Fuze unlocked running NATF 4.2 ROM (now it is 4.4). I used idea, Airtel and CellOne all three providers and was able to get it to work flawlessly. The battery used to last 3 days on a single charge.
I did not test the GPS but did test the Wifi and BT and they work fine.
AT&T Fuze has a different keyboard layout than Touch Pro. So compare the keyboard layout and find the correct ROM and keyboard patch to use it in your phone.
i m using ROMeOS ROM and Radio 1.11.25.01 and it works perfectly fine....
for GPS, try GPS Test and some fixes available as Cabs....u can search for them in XDA........also use advance config tool and disable aGPS......
i usually get GPS lock in 10-20 seconds
on wifi signal, i cant comment, as i dont use it.........
on Battery usage, agree that battery on Touch Pro is awefull, but still i manage to end the day with 30-40 % charge after normal usage.....again search and find some tips and quick fixes, eg disabling 3g network etc etc
hope it helps you
do let me know, in case ne othr help needed
Hi,
I am also from Bangalore and am using an unlocked Fuze on the Airtel Network.
My Device : Fuze
My Radio : 1.12.25.19
Rom : Energy31709
I suggest you read up in this link by member Nvious regarding battery tips, these are working very well for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3411492&postcount=930
For better performance and stability i suggest use either Energy 1.5Final or RRE 4 Ver 2 final. Both are really good Roms and the other roms by the same chefs are really in beta stage and getting updated everyday.
Regarding GPS: the HTC GPS tool does the same for me. It can see 16 sats but doesnt lock on to one, but if you check with Chartcross Gps Test or on Google maps if you use the Use GPS function i do get an under 20sec lock and also 10 sats giving a very accurate location of me in the lawn(pretty accurate, inspite of the built in 30m error).
Hope this helps
Ice
Thanks for the quick replies ...

I'll get some pics out shortly...
...the keyboard has a top row of numbers so that would make it a TP. However, it's missing the front camera && it comes default with 3G turned off. Some kind of weird hybrid.
I'm currently on Energy ROM 2.0 build 31809, and just flashed the 1.12.25.19 radio an hour ago ... did the rilphone2.dll copy w/a regedit. Battery is absolutely horrible now ... a 30 min call sucked my batter by 35%.
chicagomce
Yeah, the keyboard is a TP not FUZE keyboard.
Kingjack
I've been using Adv. Config from day 1, and have done every hack for power savings I could find on xda & other HTC sites (enabled power management for everything, turned off GPRS & 3G, sleep after 1 min, keep BT and WiFi off unless I'm using it...). It's the weirdest thing ... I literaly lose 2~4% of battery each and every time I get an SMS or send one ... call drain the battery at about 1% per minute.
Ice
Interesting thing about the 1.12.25.19 radio ... I now 'find' 16 satellites in about 2 seconds, but still won't lock onto a single one - let google, HTC GPSTool, Visual GPSce and ChartCross all have a crack at it, and the result is the same ... 16 satellites get spotted but nothing will lock no matter how long I let it sit (even with QuickGPS updated no more than a minute before
each test).
When you use Google Maps does it ever go away from Seeking GPS satellites (0)? I've noticed my location is pretty much on the spot, but I thought that was because of the information passed on
Thanks for the tip on the battery link ... I already do that and a lot more, so nothing stood out as a culprit.
I'm really missing my VOX : (
---Rob
1. The rilphone is already cooked into Energy 31 series for 1.12.25.19 in energy roms as far as i know .....so messing with it may not be a good idea...unless you really know what you are doing.
2. yes it shows 10 in the brackets for me like this Satt....(10). When you say accurate how accurate is it?.
If i let my data connection do my position in google maps it points me to the location of the nearest tower which is 600m away, however when i say use gps it gives my location as my lawn from where i try it.
I get 24 to 48 hrs out of my Battery.
Hi,
I am using TP in Delhi through Vodafone since last month. And I am using original ROM/Radio till now -
ROM : 1.95.720.2 WWE
Date : 10/21/08
Radio : 1.02.25.28
I dont feel battery is that horrible as you explained... I browse internet extensively, and do spend atleast an hour talking on phone.... But by the end of the day battery remains till 30-40%... which I think is good. If I dont use wifi, its even better.
Also wifi works like a charm for me... i am able to see a complete 7 mins. youtube video or download something/read news without any connectivity break....
However, I have not been able to successfully listen to local FM till now. Has anybody got that solved (in india).
Thanks

Hey MS...
Did you get a TP from out of country or did you get one of the Idea Cellular branded models?
BTW - Radio has worked for me no problem in bangalore...plug in the headset and it finds several stations...pretty good reception as well.

Hi Rob,
I bought it in Noida only. And I dont think it is that idea branded model (how do I find out that ?)....
Only thing is that I didnt flash any ROM on this yet... just believed on the existing ROMs, used many tweaks listed in this forum... And it is running pretty good.
I couldnt get my FM radio working till yet... It is just unable to find any radio station, while there are many (ofcourse with headset plugged it). Dont know what could be the reason.

Hey Tazzix,
Here are a couple pics my friend with a BB Bold took at lunch - sorry they're blurry. The amazing onion dosa must have gotten us crazy ; >
External 7276.jpg is clear enough to see the std TP (not FUZE) style keyboard and no FF camera.
Internal 7276.jpg shows under the battery.

Screen 2.jpg is the Device Info HW screen
Screen 3.is the about screen
I'm willing to screen capture or dump any part of my reg people would find helpful in troubleshooting this with me.
BTW - I purged EnergyRom 2.0 31809 this morning ... I love the UI but battery life when to S**T - which is weird, because I'd assume there is nothing in his ROM which would cause this kind of problem. Right now, I'm back on the latest official HTC ROM and battery life is back to 'dissapointing but acceptable'.
I wonder now...as I don't think the ENERGY series of ROMs comes with a radio if the rilphone.dll is correct for the 10.11.25.01 radio?.?.?.?
Anybody think I may have luck security unlocking the phone and load the blackstone radio? Many people rave about it.?.?.?.?

Weird, no RAPHnnn?!
Hi Rob,
I would have had paneer dosa instead but unfortunately no dosa place here in Islamabad
Its weird that there is no RAPHnnn e.g. RAPH110 (FUZE) there. Anyways, in my opinion radio plays a part in battery life. I tried to refrain from flashing, and specially radio although my device is Security Unlocked. But the battery did not last a whole day so I first flashed to 20M1 then .01 and now to 12.25.19 and found the last one to be the best, I get 2 days of normal usage. You can try different radios to see which one suites you best but I never tried a radio from another device.
As far as the ROM OS goes it depends on your usage, I hate the 6.5 chrome UI. Always used M2D or full manila on older devices too, but the new manila is simply awesome in my view. I want to see minimum of the Windows UI, except when using Word, Excel, PP, or other business apps. So the new manila keeps me in stylus-free interface similar to the main screen, and the Energy ROMs are really stable, fast and NRGZ28 is constantly fixing any thing he can find.
Look at the different screenshots and give the ROMs a try, you find to your liking.
More on the battery, I ordered a 2000 mAh battery from seidoonline.com because I want two days of heavy usage like I get from my Nokia E90.
All the best.
When I bought mine the box it came in had a BIG yellow Idea Cellular label on it, and the carrier boot screen also comes up with the big yellow Idea logo.
With my radio I get about 8 stations reliably.
BTW - UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE
About 2 hours ago I flashed the new HTC Asian WWE and guess what ... battery life is fine, wifi is connecting at 54mbps & GPS works. I about fell over when I was walking around and saw the lock happen.
For what it's worth, this ROM has fixed all my problems ...

I would love to know what is so wildly different about this ROM ... there has got to be something...the default ROM was awful the official HTC ROM from a couple weeks ago was only 'ok'.
Absolutely Rock Solid
I've been on the new HTC Asian WWE ROM w 10.11.25.01 radio for about 4 hours now and this things kicks @$$. I've done a 30 min call, while using GPS for my drive home and have gotten several SMS messages ... and battery has only barely dropped.
For the moment, I'm not gonna be flashing anything...which is a bummer as I was absolutely loving the newest Energy ROM.
Well, I take that back, I will probably flash the newest radio in a couple days to see if things get even better...but I'm gonna spend a couple days enjoying my new toy 1st (need to burn off the karma of having sworn profusely at it for the last 7 or 8 days).
BTW Tazzix - yeah, I love paneer, but I got wiped out with food poisoning on wednesday having paneer masala ... was in the mood for something a little more simple today.

Nice to hear from you ROB.... basically its based on asian customers which might differ from other countries you are getting best results....Myself tried the ROM & it's work fine so thinking of making ROM out of this base (With sahzad may be) with out much tweaking ....only stripping unwanted things & program me folder well organized easy access to often used application. By the way may i know which part of bangalore you reside in.....

Congrats, its nice to hear that you are happy now with this amazing device. And the choice of ROMs is one thing which I like about WM thanks to great chefs around here at XDA-dev.
it is 5.07.707.2 WWE ... I got it off a mirror from the original thread (my SN didn't work either).
I have a TP T7276 with Qualcomm 7206A (Idea). Anyone successfully updated this with a custom rom like EnergyRom Phoenix2?
My phone does not have the front facing camera or 3G (don't think the hardware support 3G).
The radio I have 1.13.25.24 is fine so I am only after Windows Mobile 6.5 and a newer Manila.

Hi, Henke001,
I also have same TP with vodafone in Delhi. And I could successfully update my phone with custom roms EnergyRom Phoenix2/Leo.
The phone do have 3G, though the service provider doesnt provide the support for it. I have no idea about front camera, does anyone has any idea on how do I check about this one.
Thanks

I am hearing that wm6.5 is improving battery life quite a bit on the the touch pro.
Which ROM do I use to get wm6.5 on my alltel touch pro? Can you point me in the right direction or provide me a link.
I am desperate to get battery life past 8 hours without barely touching the phone. I put an extended battery on it, but now its a brick of a phone.
I need the phone to last 12hr with moderate usage has I will be working 12hr shifts at my new job coming up and I need to various programs on my phone, medication programs that is.
PLEASE HELP! I would realy appreciate it.
What's the battery life of a paper weight? Probably pretty good. That's what your phone will be if you flash any of the roms here. Try looking for cdma roms.

Yes, please pay attention to what you are doing. You are not GSM...

Im using Elite RC4 with radio 1.14.25.05...
I get around 2 days usage, with light to moderate use... i.e. turning wifi on every couple of hours and syncing my email...
Thats GSM though
I cannot say if it will be the same for your CDMA, and I highly doubt it will be.
RC4 is an exceptional ROM, and am eager to see how RC5 is
