** I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THIS ROM, THIS ROM WAS CREATED BY NRGZ28 @ PPCGEEKS **
Welcome to my kitchen!
Here's what's on the menu today...
This is an HTC Diamond CDMA ROM, based on Windows Mobile 6.5. The current build number and date can be seen in the title of this thread.
I always build my ROMs with three main goals.
I preconfigure a lot of things in my ROM, because when I flash it on my phone, I want it ready to go, how I'd want it. So, expect the backlight to be set at the maximum brightness, the ringtone, sms/email and other notifications to already be set.
You will find a new ROM posted here every few days, as I always update them with the latest "ingredients" that come down the pipe, from either Microsoft or HTC. Because of that, I recommend learning to backup your settings with either Sashimi or UC (User Customization).
I usually make 3 versions of this ROM. If you don't see one in the download directory, it either means I haven't uploaded it OR I'm not making one for the current release yet.
Here are the different versions and what they mean.
You will find TWO core versions of each of the above versions.
One based on an the latest official windows build (currently 21864) and the other, built on the latest beta.
Currently the fast, stable, most bug free "official build" is 21864. I recommend you start with that first!

Welcome to my kitchen!
Here's what's on the menu today...
This is an HTC Diamond CDMA ROM, based on Windows Mobile 6.5. The current build number and date can be seen in the title of this thread.
I always build my ROMs with three main goals.
- Eye candy.
- Speed!!
- Smoothness, consistency and good esthetics.
I preconfigure a lot of things in my ROM, because when I flash it on my phone, I want it ready to go, how I'd want it. So, expect the backlight to be set at the maximum brightness, the ringtone, sms/email and other notifications to already be set.
You will find a new ROM posted here every few days, as I always update them with the latest "ingredients" that come down the pipe, from either Microsoft or HTC. Because of that, I recommend learning to backup your settings with either Sashimi or UC (User Customization).
I usually make 3 versions of this ROM. If you don't see one in the download directory, it either means I haven't uploaded it OR I'm not making one for the current release yet.
Here are the different versions and what they mean.
- "Standard" includes the new TF3D2 (Rhodium Manila) along with the standard Windows Mobile 6.5 today plugin (Titanium*) and the Tachi dialer
- "Titanium" only includes the Titanium today plugin. No Manila in this version. This also includes the regular HTC dialer
You will find TWO core versions of each of the above versions.
One based on an the latest official windows build (currently 21864) and the other, built on the latest beta.
Currently the fast, stable, most bug free "official build" is 21864. I recommend you start with that first!
