updated download section - About xda-developers.com

if this already exist, please ignore and forgive this post.
I think it would be great if there was an updated download section for each of the phones you have in your forum. I have a new att tilt coming in the mail and want the manila2d. I have read and read but a lot of the info is dated from 2007 and it's almost 2009 now. The posts I read say that the COOKS will have it out soon but I can't find where they have put it. If there was a thread that said latest or the custom Cab. files and had no post as to how why what I didn't read but just had the current and most, shall we say, elite cab files! Maybe I'm just off here and haven't looked close enough. I just saw a forum for moans and stuff and figured I would give it a try. Thank you all who have posted helpful info. I'm not gonna ride the **** saddle for yall though. Maybe tutorial section under the phone section, something that will take you from the new box to totally rox! I notice yall try to update the posts but then it gets all mixed up with peoples posts and confuses anyone who trys to read read read read read like yall keep telling people to do. Happy Thanksgiving!

Just have a read of the first post by the Chefs.
For example:
Just by looking at the First Page of the Kaiser ROM Development I can see 2 ROM's that mention "Manilla", 1 that mentions "Manila" (Typo ) and 2 that mention M2D.
Also if I read the first post of [15 November 08] HyperDragon III Raphael + Manila2D + YouTube . (Read First Page!) you can clearly see Manilla 2D in the screen shots, and by looking at the features you can see Manilla is included.
EDIT:
And as for guide's check the stickies in the ROM Development / Upgrading section for your device and read the wiki pages.
For the Kaiser mskip has kindly written a guide which he regularly answers questions on (as do I )

DUMMIES guide to rom cooking

hi
I tried looking around and really couldnt find any information for n00bs to help them cook there own roms.
could someone please advise me where this information is available or if someone can do a breif guide on what to do and how?
dont meen to ask TOO much but its really been buggin me.
Your pretty much going to have to read and search...
I have been trying to make my own for awhile and no luck until a couple nights ago I finally got something "cooking".
I found I ended up using two or three different programs to cook with since they all seem to do a little different.
Sorry I can't personally be of more help but you are going to have to search and read since no one will probably take the time to make it "super easy".
Bhups,
Start with the wiki. There are now a number of ROM kitchens that make cooking "relatively easy" to where we were a few months ago.
My suggestion would be to find the threads in the Development & Hacking forum and simply read through them to build up your knowledge base. This will take some time so be prepared.

Ummm ... you asked this very same question in this thread, and were given an answer (by me)
Why start a new thread with this, instead of reading answers to your last post on the issue?
-pvs
Search the Wizard thread for Faria's Kitchen, it has lots of information about cooking a ROM. Just remember that most of things might be the same for Hermes, but you cant put a wizard ROM on hermes and vice versa. Good luck, keep searching and reading. Follow the link in my signature as needed.
cheers all...
pvs - i'm sorry, I think I missed that thread.
Been so fustrated tring to find places for tutorials I forgot what I posted where.
I thougt someone may have a dummies way of cookin roms ready so they can post it as a reply on a new topic and it can be eaiser for others to find this solution.
It obviously now seems like there is ALOT of reading to do on this, and in multiple places.
okidoki peeps..
me off to it.
Thanks again to all!

Where are the HOW-TOs?

I'm a frequent XDA member on the Kaiser forum and there is tons of info there.

Sorry about that. I have the touch elf and there is a lot more information for the elf section. I didn't even look to see what was in the Vogue area since I don't have a Vogue. I just assumed it would be as comprehensive.

Installing a New ROM on T-mobile Dash

I have been looking through this forum and havent come across exactly how to install a new ROM on my t-mo dash... So I am sorry if these are dumb questions... But I do have a touch pro 2 and they explained to me how to install a new ROM on it. Is it the same concept for the Dash? Do I have to flash it with an SPL? If someone could explain all this to me it would be appreciated, or if you could direct me to a part of the forum that will assist me. I want to change the ROM on my dash for practice before I do my TP2...
I'll explain the forum has a sticky & the top take your time to read........... Does say read before posting so as to stop ?'s that are already answered........
The choice if HSPL is yours most people don't but is available in sticky, the noobs guide to flashing is there too.
Good luck.

Flashing Help

Ok so i flashed the Hard-SPL and it went ok. When i went to flash the ROM I, wanted everytime I tried to open the CustomRUU windows pops up and says "ROM UPDATE UTILITY has stopped working" and then proceeds to attempt fix the problem but nothing ever happens.
again dude, moved you from the rom dev forums over to rhode general section.
Dude you will need to specify what OS you have on you're computer when you pose us this issue you are now having..
i'm sure you will also need to install .net 2.5 and 3.5, Also i'm sure this is all detailed in the flashing for noobs forum HERE.
Request on our part,
Can you please post in the threads that are already open for these issues, yknow you're hard spl question, Why not post in the HARDSPL thread we have open.. Now you're flashing issue, Why not post inside the flashing for noobs thread instead of opening multiple threads.
Peace,
Josh

OK i have the HTC Tilt 2 with AT&T, Windows Mobile 6.5 with TF3D need anymore info just post here again.
I havent posted in already created threads because they are liek 500 pages long and in other forums I am on they dont do that so not used to it.

I'm not trying to be rude or anything, I'm just saying you should post you're question in the thread appropriate for the issue.
You're hardspl issue, you should have posted in the Hardspl thread here
and you're flashing issue you should post that question in the Flashing for noobs thread here.
We're always ready to help anyone here on xda but i'm just trying you help you understand that you're questions could also be answered in the other already open threads instead of opening a whole new thread.
Peace dude,
Josh
