WM6.1 or WM6 ? And Other Stuff

[biggary]

Basically, I use my TYTN to take the odd picture, write stuff on WORD, play lots of games and browse using netfront, using a older ROM, will it make difference? also, because there is well over 100 roms for either, it would be nice to know a good rom, fast, not buggy, doesnt need hard resets very often, do any of you recommend a good rom? also, although i made a rom well over a year ago, which is the best (and noob-y friendly) kitchen to cook maybe a little rom dish of my own?

Any help given is appreciated.

Regards :)

Thanks for any help

Hi, welcome back. There are many WM6.1 rom threads on page 1 for u to check out (forget the old wm6.0). Here's a thread post's info on the same question: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442159

I like all the flash which is built into most of the newer (6.1) roms, but after trying most all of them have stayed with 6.0. The major reason is stability. I have not yet had a 6.1 rom go more than 4 days without needing a hard reset. For those who are into flashing frequently anyway, that's no big deal. But if you want a rom that works reliably, and that you can load up with software without worrying about having to reload everything after a hard reset, I'd stick with 6.0.

Best wishes all,

For the Hermes, I have to agree with Edhaas. 6.1 has never worked as solidly for me as 6.1. (My Athena is another matter.) If you can do without the threaded SMS, then stick with 6.0.

Two I recommend are:

Edhaas' SuperD-Lite (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1401099&posted=1#post1401099) (Most worry-free ROM of the 25 or so that I have flashed to the Hermes.)

Or Shamanix Ultimate V2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359917) (Very solid with more polish than SuperD-Lite.)

And as far as Kitchens are concerned, I found the easiest to use was Matt's Pandora Kitchen (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316881). It has a lot of options to play around with, so don't expect to get things perfect the first time, but once it is set up it is dead easy to make a ROM.
