Ready for 3.x w/GPS, Which ROM ready for Prime Time?
 
Ok, I"ve decided to upgrade my 2.09 ROM to 3.x since I need to flash anyway to support SDHC. Which Rom would people say is best suited for prime time right now. I use the phone for work so I'll be using word/excel, and I don't want to be frozen/reset twice a day, although I don't mind the occasional reset. 2.09 has been reasonably stable for my use for a comparison point.

Ive been using neuROM v2 with windows mobile 6.1 and it seems very stable so far, and im loving the threaded sms. He made a great rom.

The leaked Sprint Rom works fine and there is a good guide 'stickied' in the upgrades section at the top of the Titan Forum.

The cooked Roms have WM 6.1 which I have used and is pretty nice.

Personally I found the cooked Rom's slightly buggy and went back to the 'leaked' Rom. Like you, I don't want to play around with my phone, I just want it to work without freezing up.

I personally have had less issues with no2chems rom than the leaked rom itself and i love the threaded sms so personally i would go download no2chems rom and have fun.

+1000 for no2chem's rom (build 5049) i've been thru many roms and this is the best by far i've had: stable, quickfast, decluttered, and simple to install (leaked 3.16 rom was a pain to install imo) there is nothing else out there i would recommend over it right now...

Strange... when I installed the leaked 3.16 ROM, it installed fine but I had big issues with MSVC1.6 (voice command) not working well. I also had problems with my BT headset (H500) sometimes working, sometimes dropping calls back to the phone.

I just installed Nexvision's latest Sprint ROM and so far, it's been pretty stable. Voice Command is *almost* as solid as it was on the PPC 6700. BTW, Nexvision's ROM is based on DCD and No2Chem's work.

Thanks for the replies. It looks pretty mixed with good success all around on the cooked roms. If I read it correctly, I see

No2chem's for a relatively clean install

DCD's for a middle (new features, not completely loaded) install

Nexvision's fully tricked out max rom

Would that be a fair assessment?

I think I might try them in sequence real quick just to see which each has, then pick one to stick with. First I've got to make sure I've got all the pieces in place to reinstall my regular apps.

if felt that way up until about 3 days ago myself... the part about need to load the rom AND the radio AND the bootloader... that gave your boy serious pause. I've seen routine installs half-way brick a phone, so when you throw all 3 of those factors into the same mix, whew.

But anyways i just had to man up and realize i've already been doing this for years. if you follow the instructions here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=17667 it will be the easiest update you've ever done, promise you that.

FYI the only "clean" rom is DCD. Its the only rom sets out there with the max amount of memory and literaly nothing but the bare bones. Just about any other rom is going to boot with less then 18megs of ram.
