Another ‘Which ROM?” thread….

[brandall]

Hi folks, I’m not from around these parts, I live in the Kaiser world!

I have a friend who is not technically minded, but wants me to update the ROM on his diamond.

I need to put a stable ROM on there that he can use day in day out without having to worry about solving bugs etc himself as I won’t be around to do it for him! He’s just your average, email, music and texting user – doesn’t need anything specific.

Over in the Kaiser section I would recommend PDA Ultimate V19. There are better versions after this, but in the drive for perfection and speed, each new release throws up bugs that need tweaking every now and then – this is what I’m trying to avoid.

Please can you let me know which version of a ROM you would recommend for him? The one you’ve run for ages and always return to. If there are just one or two tweaks I need to make to it, if you could detail those and I’ll sort them before I hand him his upgraded diamond back never to be tweaked again!!

Thanks in advance

Ps. Mods – didn’t want to clutter the ROM section with this, so put it in here.

I am also interested in this. I have read all the threads till now and kinda convinced me not to update the ROM. From what i've read, ROM v 1.93 has many bugs (e.g. phone rings one and then no more, send SMS to someone and I receive the message -> these are only single member problems, not happened to many people). In the end ... any suggestions on ROM update?

Yeh - what i always return to is stock rom and SPB Mobile Shell v3 on top of it - it's awesome...
