3rd Dash on the way

[vinterchaos]

Tmobile is sending me my 3rd Dash, I know this one is gonna be the same lagged out pos. They offered a shadow, but that phone is garbage. Should I just keep playing this send back the phone, get a new one and hope they offer me something better, or take this new phone they're sending and flash the rom right away?

If you flash the rom with one from kavana or rickwyatt you always have the option of putting the original rom if you need to send it back again.:D

word, now the tedious task of finding out the best rom and the instructions for installation, this forum is a mess lol

[ed02]

to tell you the truth is not too bad i upgrated mine in like 15 to 20 minutes last night, im ussing rickwaytt version 23 if u want to downloaded it have the link in my signature just make sure you unlock ur phone. if u got any question just post it here ill try to help but there is plenty of people willing to help around here

Do not get the Shadow, it is garbage... trust me...

Speed sounds more important to you than anything.

1) Use Kavana's ROM, or, even better, Ricky's Vanilla ROM

2) Do not install Voice Command.

3) Do not choose a CHome homescreen with the media goodies.

4) Install your most essential apps to the devince, never to the storage card. Install nothing non-essential.

5) Overclock it to 240. This is solid on any dash.

Do the above and your phone will be as fast as anything on the market, and as funtional, at this point in time. If it still doesn't suit your needs, get a different phone and a dedicated UMPC and 'tooth them.

so i read that my favs wont be there, does that mean those phone numbers will no longer be free for me? because i live off that o_O

There is a program install that I've read it works like My favs, but i dont use it as much so i cant realy say how well it works.

It just means that the neat T-Mobile MyFaves interface won't be there. Whenever you call someone on my faves, the charges are still the same; their phone number hasn't changed so why would calling one of them by dialing their phone number change?
You can still add an app that will put a MyFaves like feature on your phone. Plus, there are ROMS with this feature built into it.

so did your other dash's break???

cause i read online, before i got mine, that the screen would break if i dopped it, and i gotta tell ya ive dropped mine a few times and it doesnt even have a scratch on it.

I was wondering myself what the differences are between Rick and Kavana ROM. I have very successfully installed the Kavana 080408 ROM and it is awesome, but I hear a lot of people raving about Rickys ROM.

What version is the best (I dowloaded the v14 version)?

I love the way Kavana runs and looks. Speed is awesome and interface is fast (not overclocked).

What are the differences?

Thanks...

Run the latest Ricky's rom. I have it below. A lot of problems are fixed in this rom and its really nice. Ricky's rom is just an updated version of Kavana with the bugs fixed and all.

[daleksic]

are there any images somewhere. I imagine it looks pretty much the same as kavanas. Right?

Thanks again. I'm downloading right now and popping it on in a moment.

[jdoggraz]

Well, it is but there are some new applications and a lot of bugs fixed. Plus it has Chome slim which could be changed from the tools folder and then go to extras. (check it out you can change a lot of stuff from there and you can make it transparent and all). Check it out and mess around with it once you download it.

[daleksic]

Yeah, I will. Cool thanks.....

[jdoggraz]

Yeah, I will. Cool thanks.....

Let me know what you think once you start loading it ok.

[vinterchaos]

nah my screen is fine, but the phone is just acting up like crazy and having a lot of lag problems etc..etc...

i just got my replacement today, so i'm gonna try this rom thing out, but my old dash isnt even starting up anymore, i wanna save the shit i got on there :(
