Re: Which M2D ROM to choose?

I just tried out OMJ and WDM (Clean versions). I prefer the OMJ rom over the WDM rom.

OMJ Pros:
- Has HTC Youtube application!
- Clean with no annoying credits. For example, there is no XDA Developers link in the Internet tab or the device is not renamed to the authors name.

OMJ Cons:
- The start menu bar is the original gradient. Will look nicer if you install the iblackbar theme to make the menu bar a solid black.
- Keyboard is the default HTC Touch keyboard. Install the HTC Diamond keyboard. It memorizes if you're in XT9 or ABC mode and isn't buggy when you type fast.

WDM Pros
- Looks nice out of the box. Includes a solid black taskbar.
-

WDM Cons
- Windows Messenger is missing in the clean version. Could not find a way to install it. Should be already included with the phone.
- Keyboard buggy when typing fast. Caps lock also doesn't seem to work. Install HTC DIamond keyboard instead.
- Have to rename the device from "whodaman" to your own. Not that big of a deal but I feel it is better for the author to not put his credits on the phone like that.
- XDA Developers link on the Internet tab. Need to edit registry to remove. I don't think the rom author put that link there but again, not a good way for authors to put their credit.
