6.5.5|ROM|WWE| Energy Series 23569/21905 Sense 2.5 + Many Variations
Welcome to the "EnergyROM" thread !
This development thread is for my "Energy" custom firmware series for the HTC Touch HD2 (Leo) device.
The current build numbers and date can be seen in the title of this thread. I usually update the ROMs every few days, as new builds come down the pipe.
I also build my ROMs with four main goals.
Eye candy ( I want my ROM to look great and for it to all flow together nicely)
Speed !!!
Smoothness, consistency and good aesthetics
Stability through private beta testing before public release
I pre-configure a lot of things in my ROM, because when I flash it on my phone, I want it ready to go. So, expect the backlight to be set at the maximum brightness, the ringtone, sms/email and other notifications to already be set. Doing it this way, makes for a nice ROM that's ready out of the box.
I recommend learning to backup your settings with either Sashimi or UC (User Customization). Backing up with SPB Backup or similar products, is NOT recommended, as they tend to backup the previous release's registry/file bugs as well!
Looking at the second post where all the ROMs downloads are you will find two core versions of each ROM.
The 21905Build which is the most reliable and bug free release. It has the Start menu button at the top left corner! I recommend you start with this first!
The 23569 Build that's the latest in the 6.5.5 series with the Start menu button at the bottom left corner and big softkeys. These builds are not as stable or perfect, but they reflect the latest cutting edge technology from Microsoft. These are also much more finger friendly throughout.
BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD AND FLASH ANY OF THESE ROMS, MAKE SURE YOUR RADIO VERSION IS AT LEAST 2.07.50 (not 51! any .50 version should be okay) , OR YOUR PHONE WILL NOT BOOTUP AFTER YOU FLASH !
I RECOMMEND FLASHING RADIO 2.07.50 WHICH CAN BE FOUND HERE > CLICK <
IF YOU HAVE A TMOBILE USA DEVICE, THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU AND YOU DO NOT NEED TO FLASH A NEW RADIO, BUT 2.07.50 IS STILL RECOMMENDED TO WORK BEST WITH THIS ROM.

You can stay up to date on the status of my ROM development by "following" me on Twitter.
It's definitely the fastest way to get in touch with me and please don't be afraid to tweet me if you see major issues with the ROMs.
I generally do not answer "support" questions on Twitter, as it's really not the proper medium for that. Service packs and quick fixes will always be released
as links in my tweets and that's definitely the fastest way to get a fix for a ROM.

Cookie Hometab based ROMs
Cookie 'Energy' style
- This is the best ROM version and the way Sense should have been designed by HTC Offers the biggest customization ability out of all versions. You can add/remove bars or items, arranges items on the homescreen any way you like
- Three built in lockscreens. "HD Mini" style, Manila style or Windows style
- 3 pages of quicklinks with configurable amount of shortcuts displayed
- 3 Homescreens to choose from, as seen in the above screenshots, all completely customizable !

Cookie Reference
- This is a ROM that has no modifications applied to Sense, except the Cookie mod. It retains the stock green everywhere.
- It also features a greatly reduced number of applications, compared to my normal ROMs.
- Stock 3 row start menu arrangement.
- This is a "very close to stock" ROM, but with a small bit of the "energy" flair to it + Cookie hometab !

Cookie Dinik styled (glassy theme)
- This is the same as the Cookie version above, but with Dinik's glass theme applied on everything.
- Everything has been skinned, including Sense, the start menu items, the soft keyboard, parts of the dialer... etc
---> Download Here <---
Cookie GTX Themed (white theme)
- This ROM has the white GTX theme applied.
- Android styled taskbar
- Matching dialer
- Matching start menu background and Action screen background
- GTX is a total reskin of the operating system, so expect a very different experience

=================================================================================
- This series retains the stock functionality of the Sense UI. The files have been compressed by "CFC" compression. making the UI lighter and faster.
- You have the choice of two styles.. "Energy" style where everything is blue and there's plenty of nifty apps cooked in, or "Reference" style where Sense is stock, everything is green and only basic apps are cooked in.

MaxSense UI
- This the next incarnation of MaxManila, but a TOTAL departure from the original design.
- It features a 3 screen, Android style, homescreen with widgets! The widgets can be placed ANYWHERE on the three screens.
- 75 Quicklink accessible on all tabs
- You should really visit the original thread for this mod shown on the next line to see all the features!

MaxManila
- The hometab layout has been changed to add 4 notification icon (calls, calendar, texts, emails). - Easy access to those functions by just tapping the icons.
- Several clock arrays to choose from
- The ability to turn different panels/icons on or off, by accessing a hidden settings screen (swipe down to show)
- Automatic locking ability
- Ability to go fullscreen with sense !

=================================================================================
- This is a minimal ROM version without Sense in it. It's used primarily for people that like to customize the default 6.5 homescreen (Titanium)
- You can use it to install alternate homescreen interfaces like SPB Mobile Shell, etc
- Very low memory footprint and good battery life, but very simple and lacks a lot of features that you would otherwise have available in Sense...

ROM features at a glance:
- Very fast startup time. You find any startup wizards in this ROM. You'll be up and running in a couple minutes after flashing the ROM.
- XDA_UC is built in. It will import your custom XML and REG files from your storage card after first boot.
- My own Settings Exporter application is found in the Tools folder. Use it to export all your settings after you customize the device. When a new ROM comes down the line, use it to import everything and save time.
- Everything is setup to use the phone right after flashing. Sounds, notifications, etc
- The HTC Messaging client is removed, leaving the windows built SMS client for much faster texting...
