Which ROM(s) are best in the UK? I've noticed HSDPA has been rolled out everywhere in my local area (Wimbledon).

Is dutty's the one to try out first?

Also which radio is best for the UK / South East?

Thanks :)

i think you are looking for best reception. Rom and radio are dependent with each other. If you have a radio, then you must have a compatible rom and vice versa. There are way too many radios out there and what one person says is ones preference due to GPS, reception in their home/work, and battery life. I suggest choosing one and testing out yourself since there is no clear winner in what radio works best in any area.

Thanks for that, hopefully some of the UK members will post up which ones work well :)

Cheers,
Andy

Different people have different opinions!

IMHO, I haven't noticed much difference. I am currently using MobileVista 1.3 which comes with the latest ATT radio I think and that works fine here in Birmingham.

Apparently 1.64.08.21 is suggested for UK, personally I cannot tell as I havent installed the new radio yet.

However I am chasing up T-Mobile with regards to the Windows Mobile 6.1 update it will be interested as to what they will say about with their radio rom.

Personally I find all WM 6.0 roms faster than the 6.1 roms. My favourite is Q-mobile 1.2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359263) with radio 1.27.12.17 (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_Radio). It's fast, stable, not too bloated, works with calls, hands free, music and GPS and all combinations.

I use it with UK Vodafone and UK O2 contracts, mostly in the South of England, but also no problems in China, Malaysia, Brazil, Mexico, USA and most of East and West Europe.
