Mogul Update Options

[tsperez]

I've got TMI (too much information) on these pages. I love updating my phone but now I can't figure out what my next option or options are. I have the Sprint Mogul with Mobile 6 professional (CE OS 5.2.1622) and I installed the new ROM - 3.16.651.0 with radio 3.27.00.
I'm interested in going to the next level but what is that? Also, I want only stuff that is pretty stable - does not have to be perfect but I don't want to loose main functionality.

Thanks in advance,
tsp

Check out DCD 2.2.xx ROMS in this forum, I use and love them. I have been using ROMs from here for a long time, on my Axim and Elf, now on my Titan. Got to love the build quality and additional options they give you.

I recommend a DCD ROM as well. Wait for his next release (next after 2.2.3) as there is a bug that should be fixed very soon. You won't be dissapointed. :)

depends on what you want....

you want basic....stable....not many progs....go with dcd

you want basic....stable....some decent progs...go with nexvision

you want a little more advanced....alot of progs....go with colonel custom rom from ppcgeeks.com

all are good...i use colonels currently...after a little modifying and setting up on your behalf it will probably be the best rom to use until we get a kitchen and create our own personal roms...

the other two are cool...but they have the same low memory as a phone with many programs....and some core things that I like were taken out that jus made the phone...well....boring....

so its up to you...and what YOU like.

I like DCD's rom... been using 2.2.0 and it is great... I'll wait abit to move up a notch....

Can't go wrong with DCD's roms...

Hey Splitter,
I am really new to making alot of upgrades and understanding some of the language. Can I get my Mogul to look like the screen in you profile pic, or possibly to get the HTC Home application so that i can get the Touch options such as weather, time, etc.

yes all you have to do is get the homeplug cab that was taken from the touch. i also would recommend the htc touch dialer so you keypad is easier to do. Just search for them. they should be on this site

[only1don]

Hey Mike18 thanks however i can't find it and i am a little or should i say a lot iliterate. Can you please direct.

helps if i add the link the first time i post

[only1don]

Thanks coffey_joshua. This has been a great help, however i didn't see the weather screen or the Touch screen and skins.

[coffey_joshua]

once you get the htc home to your main screen you should be able to just click on the sun icon and have an option to update your city

[only1don]

this is sooo cool. Do you think i am going to be constantly updating my phone now, it seems to be addictive.

[coffey_joshua]

yeah maybe you didn't read the disclaimer about upgrading your phone.....

it clearly states your wife/ girlfriend will become upset with you because of the amount of time you will put into your phone

I have used both dcd's and No2Chem's most recent roms and found them both to be great. Those guys are amazing!

Currently I have NexVision's Hybrid on my mogul...based on a dcd2.x.x rom (think it's 2.2.6 but not sure) and loaded with other useful apps, it's one of the better "dressed up" rom's I have found in my short time.

Big Ups to all those guys for sharing and helping the rest of us to learn!!

Where did u find colonel rom? I searched ppcgeeks couldn't find it. is it base on 3.16 rom with gps enabled?

Ditto here.. Altho some of the others sound interesting.. The biggest problem with upgrading the ROM is you have to reload all the programs you want right? or hopefully I am wrong...

I recently upgraded from DCD 2.2.1 to no2chems' 2.0 (basically for the extended ROM access). What a great ROM, I highly recommend it.

Being able to access and use the 9MB+ of the Ext ROM is a huge plus. There is also a thread at PPCGEEKS (when their web site works) that explains how to automate the loading of your favorite programs from EXT ROM when you flash your phone.

Freaking awesome. :D

Interesting how generations are different, I'm presuming you are much younger than I am (45).

If my "girl" was laying in bed while I was geeking on my phone... I can assure you, I"d drop the gadget and take care of my "girl".......

i don't think it's age. i think it's after that first year of marriage.

I dunno... been married for 26 years.... If my wife is on the bed, upset because I'm geeking on my phone... I'm dropping the phone.


Could be the one year thing I guess... at 45 though, my priority isn't my phone when it comes to pooky.... pooky has the priority over almost anything. :D
