i flashed my Kaiser to a 6.5 ROM by anryl yesterday. It was horribly slow to respond to user input so i'm flashing back to HTC Stock and then trying the Ultimate-X2 Beta. Maybe i'll have to wait until i get a new phone with better hardware :/

Its like a bank holiday of nothing to do but flash phones \o/

I'm using this Energy ROM on my Touch Diamond. Nice little upgrade to 6.5 and the latest TF3D stuff too

Also stuck on Finger Keyboard as it's soo much nicer and better than the standard one

Not sure if I'll stick with this upgrade

I'd love to as it works a treat, but TF3D2 is very memory hungry and is sitting around 83% usage instead of the older version at around 55-65%. This also means it seems to eat through the battery quite a bit faster which is really my main problem.

I'll sit with it for the week and see how it goes but I'm not sure it'll last long if I've guessed right with the battery.

Swapped back to WinMo6.1 and TF3D yesterday. The new one was night but I need memory and battery life. The memory was so bad that trying to view just one page in Opera and it ran out of memory

Good job I can change ROM's and reload my main software in about 10 minutes
Might look around for another updated ROM later though.

Did you try 6.5 without TouchFlo? I know they updated the default WinMo interface in 6.5, not sure how useful it is though.

Yeah, tried that. It's not bad, but TF3D is really nice and I much prefer it. I've just found another ROM to try out which promises less RAM usage so loading it up now

I think I'm addicted Also found a kitchen pack so might even try and build my own ROM

Not as expensive as I was expecting.

Ooooohhh, new ROM with 6.5 and TF3D2 is sitting at 57% RAM free
Got the HTC Dialer turned off which helps with that but it's looking good so far.

The lower memory one had too many bugs for me and things weren't working properly

Gone back to EnergyROM3 for now but turned off the HTC Dialer which saves me 10MB RAM
Hopefully that will help with the battery situation too.

TomTom is working fine on every ROM I've tried recently.
