Need a ROM / Kitchen [CDMA - Sprint]

morganlowe · #1 (**permalink**) 12-31-2008, 01:23 AM

So I just got a Touch Diamond for free because my Mogul died and Sprint was out of them. I used DCD's ROMs on my Mogul, loved them, I got loads of custom apps, skins, so on... I need a clean and simple WM6.1 ROM thats fast and easy. I run Skype, SPB Mobile Shell, Sprint Nav, Google Maps, Palringo and Gstreamer.

I love streaming media, I stream music from home via Shoutcast to my Truck while on the road, and use Browseamp as a way to control the tracks. Email / texts run into the hundreds a week.

I posted this over at XDA as well, I lurked there a lot with my Titan. There's just so much out already it's hard to tell it all apart! I would greatly appreciate your opinion!

All of the roms in this forum are CDMA, and a few are Sprint Specific. Off the top of my head the following roms are Sprint specific:

grooveROM
Calkulin's roms
OMJ's rom
Ivan's rom

.. there are others, but these seem to be the more popular Sprint roms.

I think I want something pretty basic. It's nice to play youtube videos and such but I wont use a lot of preloaded software. I'm looking at a few and still absorbing.. been reading here for 3 hours now

Hehe, I like the lack of the most popular ROM regardless of carrier. As most of the sprint users here use it too.

What ROM is that?

Also, It looks like I'm going to have to take a week and just flash, flash, flash...

I'm just saying what's Sprint specific, since the title of this thread says "Sprint".

It's true that Juicy and MightyMike both have very good carrier non-specific roms that will work fine on Sprint devices, but they are built from Telus oems, and tested on Telus devices. You will lose some Sprint features with those roms. They are minor features, but features nonetheless.

Ahh I see... I just popped that in there because some would ask. I just finished off my Mogul... It's now sitting in the bottom of a bucket of used motor oil. Mechanic + Smartphone = Asurion's best friend.

I use Calcu's kitchen...
very very easy, and I can take out any programs I don't want.
