Question Need suggestions...

I decided to unlock my tilt and put a different ROM on it to make it faster.
But I need some help here.

1st - I just backed up my device using the PPCPimBackup.exe program
2nd - I am about to unlock my tilt with HardSPLv1.

After that procedure what ROM version does everyone suggest for the Tilt?

I have been looking at the AT&T Tilt AKU.0.7.0 Cooked ROM. Just Because it’s a tilt ROM if that makes any difference.
Heres the link to it --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338002
Does anyone disagree with this ROM?

I am basically looking for a ROM that is going to have TouchFlo scrolling and be clean of all that crap that slows down the tilt. But I would like to install the IM program back on and some other cabs I found on this great site (ie. HTC Home plugin and task manager Register Editor and some others).

ALSO when i do install another ROM version will the AT&T settings be correct for my account? For my data plan and all?

Thanks in advance!

i'm using austinsync's big storage rom found here (the one under "Breaking News") and so far it works the best for me. i have an at&t tilt, did the same thing you're about to do/did and started with the htc ship rom. the htc rom was a large improvement from the at&t rom and out of curiousity rather than need i flashed all of the cooked rom variants floating around. helmi_c rom's are good but i found the tilt variant made my device sluggish. i haven't done any objective analysis but on my device any rom with ptt (push-to-talk: not-free, at&t wireless feature/add-on) i experience severe device lag. currently i'm running austinsync's big storage rom.

again, personally running austinsync's rom right now and looking at your list i can say this rom (austinsync's) fits all of your requirements except a registry editor but that's something you'll have to download on your own regardless; most rom's will not include a registry editor.

i don't know what settings might be correct for your specific account but most, if not all, of the cooked roms have a program called "Connection Setup" that will automatically install your setting settings based on your SIM/Network. the program runs after initial flash and you have to do is select "ok" or "yes" when prompted whether or not you want "Connection Setup" to automatically install your settings. i can't remember but the rom i'm running now does not have "Connection Setup" automatically run upon start-up. the program is installed just not set to automatically run, austinsync can correct me if i'm wrong. personally i like entering my settings manually or else via a cab i created but to each his own.

I second austinsync's Big Storage ROM... I've found on my Tilt it to be the best of what I want, and it's compeletely open for me to customize as I see fit. Very stable, does everything I want and it looks great out of the box.

Good luck!
