Which rom are you using right now?
 
Hey guys, now I know the "politically correct answer is; whichever rom suits your needs is the best one" but overall, which rom do you think is the best available right now at ppcgeeks? Best overall means user friendly, fast, great, stable, gps locks quickly etc etc.

Mine suits me just fine! Has everything I want! :)

If it doesn't suit you, then grab my kitchen and COOK YOUR OWN!

Lol, well I meant to ask which rom is the "most used" as opposed to best. I can't edit the title unfortunatelly. :angry7:

dHarvey's because it's beautiful, stable, FAST, has the Polen Cube (which is the first thing I installed after coming to this site - but it never worked right) and he's a nice guy that helps everyone get it up and going. :D

I followed your instructions step by step but I don't know how to fully customize it. For example, the boot screens, and the registered owner. Your name came up.

I agree, DHarvey's rom are cool and more importantly, he offers 24/7 tech support :headbang::headbang::headbang:

Too bad now he's asking for money :disgust:

True - but $20 for 24/7 tech support is a bargain. Maybe he's outsourcing to India?

Another for Dharvey. The rom is lightning quick and very stable the only issue I have with it is that it hogs up more memory than the others I have used but I have had less freezing up and soft resets since I started using it.

Although I cant complain about some of the others in the vote now list.
Everybody deserves our thanks for there effort.

In the end it is always going to comedown to your personel needs. Thats why when these chefs post a new rom they give you a pretty detailed description of what they put in it.

You can delete the my name out of the zzz_My_Files_OEM's RGU file. For a simple fix on boot splash screens, I just flash a simple PPCKitchen rom with what I want, and the animation....change the file ..\OEM\OperatorPKG\SPCS_startup.gif. And next release, I'll delete myself. :) It is as I run it...

The guy has worked NON stop to build an awesome ROM, he has only asked for donations for personally customized roms and for those who don't want to wait for him to get around to other carrier roms. There are plenty of people enjoying his work, a proper thank you in $$ should be a given. He shouldn't HAVE to ask!

rose1 07-24-2008 04:00 PM

Re: Which rom are you using right now?
 
I know, he's helped me out a lot too. One of the reasons I'm using his rom now is cause of the 24/7 tech support! I would love to donate but unfortunatelly I'm unemployed. This economy is going straight to you know where!

Re: Which rom are you using right now?
 
Great idea, but I'd really like to see this survey By Carrier.

It's incredibly confusing to try and discern which ROM's work best with my carrier.... which ain't Sprint. As a Verizon user I have no idea which way to turn and my service is way too important for my work to start experimenting.

DaPeeps 07-24-2008 04:24 PM

Re: Which rom are you using right now?
 
I am using DHaveys Vista ROM...my own custom version. I donated....you all should too. :P
Arguably the best ROM I have used, and most certainly the best Windows Vista themed ROM out there. Not only is the ROM itself top notch, but the chef himself is awesome.

gold_sprinter 07-24-2008 04:59 PM

Re: Which rom are you using right now?
 
Dharveys ROM great. I like the fact that it is one of the few ROMs that still keeps the cube in. I one of those losers that still likes the cube. I have tried many ROMs and this is the most stable and contains the cube and all the games that I like. I am not taking anything away from the other Chefs just that his ROMs contain all of my favourites and the others only contain some of them. But big KUDOS all round the chefs!!! Without you guys I would have a very boring life!!

rose1 07-24-2008 09:29 PM

Re: Which rom are you using right now?
 
Looks like most people use OMJ's roms. I'm 100% sure it's because, while all roms are great, omj's roms are as close to oem as possible which most people like.

Balkar 07-24-2008 10:24 PM

Re: Which rom is the best out right now?
 
Dharvey's because its very very nice in term of vista look and i love most of the apps in there. In addition, its stable.

DHarvey and OMJ have both customized their ROMs for different carriers - Verizon included. I personally LOVE DHarvey's. I've been using it since it was just a Sprint ROM. His latest version is awesome & works great on my verizon XV6900.

There's no option for the new official release, but that's what I'm running.

mconig78 07-25-2008 07:27 AM

Re: Which rom are you using right now?
 
Dharvey's has suited me well. I tried others which are good too but to my own personal preferences Dharvey's has everything I need and its very fast and stable. Dont get me wrong the others are good too. Once I got brave enough to flash my phone I do it all the time now just to try out the others but then I go back to Dharvey.

The question should be "Which ROM are you using today/this week?" :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

Re: Which rom are you using right now?
 
As a Verizon user I have been sticking with my own for mms/sms working right and the few chefs making Vzr versions usually they come out much later then their Sprints and by the time they do the kitchen seems to be on a new version.
Not complaining at all, just my personal preference to play with the new stuff and keep mms working at the same time.
Though Dan's new Verizon rom is looking rather tempting...

As a Verizon user I would use the kitchen tomake your own and if you don't have the time for that just use a rom that is verizon specific, there are a few out there. I have used both OMJ and DHarvey and both are great.

Unless you do something dumb :mrgreen: your phone won't stop working. I work in IT and am required to be avaialble for calls and text alerts 24/7 and I never run into any issues getting my calls/messages. If anything I find that Mobile 6.1 is better and allows me to be more productive (more Outlook options) and I bet Verizon is never going to release an update or wait an extemely long time.
