Is there a ported "touch pro 2" rom for original "touch pro"

The reviews says the touch pro 2 system feels faster than original, yet hardware isn't much difference. Have there been a ported touch pro 2 rom?

pretty much every rom available now had the Rhodium(touch pro 2) Manila on it. Try Energy rom.

than why is the battery so much better on the touch pro 2 even though its identical to the touch pro? i mean if the tp2 rom was basically ported to the tp1 shouldnt the battery life be better too?

I'm complete opposite, my tp2 decimates the battery life on my original tp, I guess it depends on the user.

the tp2 also uses a different radio, I'm not saying the radio is the entire cause of better battery life, but it could be a factor.

Just because it's similar hardware doesn't mean drivers haven't been optimized by HTC to increase performance/battery life.

Completely true, and then it will practically be unstoppable once custom rom's and hardspl comes out.

the reason the tp2 is gasyer is because its using a htx resorce proxy which is cabbed up and can be intalled on touch pro. now mine is snappy to
