The answer for this question have the same as for this other one "How do i know wath car is the best for me?"

Really you must read (lot of read) and then, if you are sure wath you are doing and wath you are looking for, take a test on every ROM....

Of course, Wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes must be your starting point.

Regards.

jcespi2005 is right - you need to do a lot of reading. This will give you a feel for how stable a rom is and how muck tinkering you need to do to get what you want.

I'd recommend Black 2.0 - it's great and stable. Also the LSVW roms are great, but there were some reports on a White Screen problem for some people. I haven't tried Dutty's rom yet, and I'm eagerly waiting for Kyphurs WMXL0.3 which I also think will be very good.

I'd also recommend flashing Olipros HardSPL 1.40 before you begin because it will help you if you have any problems later.

I will reiterate what ach2 has said.

Read... a lot. Wiki, forums, etc.

Also, I would recommend Black, although others have their favorites.

WTF is with that title. did u read the rles on posting? did u search at all? did u read anything that has been posted? have u followed any thread at all?

this has been asked, answered, discussed, compered, contrasted and debated.

pick a phone, pick a rom. dont like the rom change it.

make up ur own... mind if u have one.

most importantly RTFW do the research. do ur home work. put some effort in.

change the heading on the forum.

Simon,

Wind your neck in mate - your post just makes you sound like you're some jumped up moron with an attitude problem.

There are much nicer ways to tell people that they've asked a stupid question and this is something that has been discussed on this particular forum...at length. Your post adds nothing to the thread apart from unnecessary vitriol and repeats what several other people posted before you - except that they were much nicer about it (and used things like capital letters and punctuation ;)

Either drop the attitude and try and be a little more helpful or ignore posts like this and STFU.

Thanks.

Cheers! Reason!

Anyway. It is a matter of trying them out and seeing what you like. Personally I started with WMXL 0.20 and am still on it. So I haven't found out what the other are like. I'll try Black 2.0, or 2.5 if its out by then ;), when WMXL 0.30 comes out. And if some required functionality isnt there, i'll go on to WMXL 0.30.

Basically. Read until your eyes just about fall out on HOW to upgrade. Then just pick whatever rom seems like a good idea at the time. The more important bit is making sure you do it right, then you can flash to a different one later (plenty of good info in the forums and on the wiki).

the famous mr poleman posted this in 2003 and has represented the guiding light and rule on posting rules since that date.

Perhaps maybe somebody could make reference to it WHEN CREATING POSTING TITLES at least.

i express my deepest and most sincerest apologies to all those that i may have offended... i am simply just a little frustrated seeing these posts with nothing but useless headings like pls help or error and like.


so... if the be all and end all of postings could be followed since 2003 and applied to all since that date maybe i would be more helpful and less frusrated.... so for those that didnt know or didnt read perhaps a revisit

lordsmiff i bow to your righteousness and will do as u ask when people start following the guidelines and rules that have applied since long b4 u or i ever got here but seemed to be disregarded.

btw i was nice just wait ill i am really upset. at the moment i have been on this forum for 2hrs after working 14hrs and i see topic headings like this. pls forgive me my grumpiness and intolerance. i am usually more helpful and just lost my patience.

We're all grumpy sometimes dude, me included - and I got told the same thing not too long ago ;-)

So not exactly righteous, more of spread-the-love thang ;-)

Join the light side - take the path of righteousness - spread the love!

Oh, and to be a little more on topic, I've tried them all with no particular favourite, though I do like the LVSW one with the green skinned comm manager :)
