I am new to this forum and PPC's, I am looking for information for the best way to back up my current PPC rom and update to the BEST WM6 Rom with as little amount of ram use as possible. I seem to have stumbled into an argument which makes it difficult for me to sort through the BS and find an accurate answer to my concerns and questions. Here are my concerns:\
1) I have been pointed to this forum and this Rob Mayers Helmi's WM6 from another forum. Through all my reading I know that HELMI created a wm6 for the xv6700. I know that a program called Kitchen was created by the members of this site. I know that a member called Rob Mayer made an stripped version of Helmi's WM6 for xv6700 using kitchen. These are facts.
2) I researched Helmi's wm6 and really want it but there are so many versions of I'm not sure where to go and which one to get. I researched Kitchen and feel it is above my IQ at the moment and don't want to brick my new phone before I get the chance to use it. I Heard of Rob Mayers stripped version and feel confident this is the route i want to go as I can add programs that I want.
3) Coming to this forum makes me scared to do anything. Use Kitchen...No!, it ok to use Robs.....Wait? No! Use Kitchen it is better..Stop! No? wait! Rob made Kitchen and He is Helmi!!!
???? See where I'm going. Makes me confused on my confidence to make a decision based on my skill level. I already made a choice before I came to this site to research and use Robs Rom because it seems to be at my skill level at the moment. After reading through the countless pages of this forum, I feel frustrated and more confused and my confidence is getting lower and lower and that stinks. Now people may become Jaded toward me now because of what I am saying but at the moment I truly want to throw my phone in the garbage!! I am frustrated because my phone runs like junk, I need to update the software to make it run better, and I would like an Ifone interface so I don't have to use the stylus all the time.
3) just a suggestion, maybe if the moderators of software developers have an issue you could just IM or email you issues to one another and leave this forum clean. I say this because every time I find a forum that I need something from there seems to be a fight of some kind. As a result, every Tom, Dick, and Harry needs to comment on the issue (including myself) making it extremely difficult to find answers without sorting through fifteen hundred pages of fluff only to find your answer isn't there. To make matters worse, when I post that I need help with something, Moderators close my thread saying NO DOUBLE POSTS! forcing me to filter through all Fifteen hundred pages to find parts to my answer leaving me confused thus adding to the possibility to me bricking my phone....WHew! OK? please don kick me or flame me!
