Cool.. Another set of questions:

Can I make a new ROM with a better browser? Opera sucks ass.
Can I include Flash and Java with the new ROM as well?

EDIT:
Nevermind. You just go out and find an app and get it. So I'm not limited to the crap that Microsoft and Verizon stick me with. After using PIMBackUp, I realized it IS just like a Windows PC... Install an EXE and you're running.

I just discovered SkyFire... OMG. Java... Flash... The web actually works like it's supposed to.

I'm currently running stock ROM 1.08.605.4 which included a hard reset... It's running Slightly faster now... But SkyFire really is an improvement.

I'm with verizon as well and just recently purchased a touch pro off of ebay. I've tried 3 different roms and every rom "other than the stock" have me at about 70% usage. Just on the home screen. both 6.1 and 6.5 and with touch flo 3d or not. right now stock rom with just sms/mms open i have 75% used, stock. with touch flo 3d. if i disable i go down to atleast 60%. Is there really something better?/ Faster for verizon users? Most roms that i find are for sprint. and a quick fyi. that downgrade from 256 to 192mb makes it alway's bogged down on the internet. I"m glad to hear that skyfire is much faster. adding it now. I'll hit you up if i find a faster rom.

I hade the same problem, Try this rom. http://www.sskusers.net/index.php?op...id=6&Itemid=48

Check out ROM #23017

It made me keep my touch pro 1

This is def an excelent and well put together rom. :) i love it so far. and i've used it about a minute. pele, i would recomend this. i'm currently using 69%, with TF3D. and it's smooth. LOADED with apps and a clean RAM app. to help keep the usage low even after you close the program.
Does not come with BING Maps, or SKY Fire, just IE,
Also comes with a nifty utility called S2U2, for locking your phone after the screen goes dark. ;) So if you get a text you don't bum call the person. "or anyone else". S2U2 is just an amazing app. Would recomend this app.!!!! So. look into it.

Re: Slow, Laggy, PITA to use.

Oh lol i've left alot of posts. but for the record...
My phone...
Has, Total Storage of 308.97
And Program Total of 109.42
In use 81.56
Free 27.86
So.. it's like i'm running my old HTC Titan.. But with a better GUI, and less buttons..

all you need to do with my kitchen is answer a few questions

Code:

Please Enter the name of your ROM: pele

Please enter your desired SYS/XIP version: 28014

Please Enter titanium/manila/both/none (lowercase): titanium

Would you like to baseline the SYS? (y/n): y

Would you like to baseline the XIP? (y/n): n

Please enter desired pagepool size (0-64): 12

RZ relocate modules (EXPERIMENTAL) (y/n): n

thats all, it will go off and do its thing and within a few mins you will have the rom update utility on your screen, ready to flash.

you need to disable user account control and be an administrator on your PC because my kitchen does some low level things like changing system/hidden/OS attributes on the ROM files.

I downloaded the latest kitchen (2009-12-21) from your site listed in your sig... It popped up a second DOS window and said ERROR! (Runlevel: 1)

What went wrong?

If I try and create one that's both titanium and manilla it fails even earlier with a "Can not find WINCE.somethinsomething. This ROM will not boot."

make sure you have user account control DISABLED, and also you need to be an administrator on your PC. and another thing is that the path to the kitchen cannot exceed 240 characters, an easy way around this is move the kitchen directory to C:\

note though that in the past few kitchens (not sure how many) VZW functionality is broken.. I am working on that

All the instructions I find say that this is a Vista or 7 only thing... I can't find anything specific to XP for UAC. Is this feature in XP?

How do I find out which are broken, or do I have to download them all and try?
