6-19 [ROM / Kitchen] - 'Sprint Basics 1.4' Visual Kitchen - WM 6.1 Only - Page 10

**nrfitchett4** · #91 (**permalink**) 02-27-2010, 02:20 AM

question from a newb to custom ROM's.
is cooking in the programs what makes the rom run faster? otherwise i don't see the point of custom roms.
Also, can I put any cab file I want into the kitchen? or just what you have posted in there?
Last question, if yes to cab file question above, to I have to reflash everytime a newer version of a program comes out? or can i just download cab as before?

Thanks if you could answer these. I am basicly looking to speed up my stock sprint phone with mobile shell. nothing fancy, don't care if it even has tf3d.

for some reason, i'm still getting that file corrupt message. Not sure why. . . version 1.1 works fine.

1. Yes, partly. Tweaking the ROM, which I have done in the kitchen autmatically will make it run faster as well.

2. No but you can load a cab file after you flash the ROM.

Cimply click "Load ROM" and select the only option available. Now you will see a bunch of "stuff" Ignor the core packages as you will need all of those and scroll down to the programs. Pick and choose the ones you want by double clicking. For the meantime you may want to just leave it as is. Next click create ROM and the rest will be taken care of. When the ROM is done it will bring up the RUU to flash. Flash ROM like normal and thats about it. If you have questions along the way dont hesitate to ask.

I tried and decided its so complicated (thats why only Cal is doing it for now in a downloadable kitchen) that it transcends what I am trying to do. I am going to keep it at sense 2.1 for now. Sorry man.

Yes, just deselect it in the Manila options in the kitchen.

What's the benefit of this over the Stock Rom with the cleanup .cab?

I ask because that is just what I was about to do until I saw this. Right now Im using Calkulin's 6.5 ROM with Manila disabled and running SPB's Mobile Shell with the MobileSense 3.5.3 theme running on top of it. I figured I might as well go back to Stock and gain some speed.

This is much faster than stock and already cleaned up. Try it. You may or may not like it. Its all choice.
