Anyone build a rom with wm 6.1 for the HD2 ? What were/are your experiences?
Does sense 2.5 run on wm 6.1?
Wow, I honestly thought this was a misplaced question. I don't know of anyone who goes back and cooks OLDER roms. I'd think there'd be some sort of technical difficulty in getting programs designed for the newer system to work with an older one (though it's not so often the other way around).

I've read some posts from tp2 users who reverted from 6.5 back to 6.1 and they said it was much faster. So as curious as a appelfap can be I asked my self the question how fast 6.1 would be on a HD2?
The question is which OEM base should be used for that (can the multitouch driver be used etc) and which EXT packages will run on it (I guess only sense 2.1)
I'm not sure it can get "much faster" since its already close to "instantly".
With that said 6.1 is absolutely not finger friendly, nor does it support multi-touch-gestures...I'm really not sure anyone has any interest to cook such a rom especially since probably only VERY few people have interest because they want to use a certain app which has compatibility issues on 6.5 or something...
so to be honest, if speed is the only reason...then its not worth it since HD2 is blazing fast as it is right now.
Come on man.. how much faster do you want to go ? LOL
Like [email protected] said.. the HD2 is already INSTANT. 6.1 is a fugly POS compared to what we can do with 6.5 and the HD2 is alll about looking good.

You said it man and in my, and a lot of people's opinion you Absolutely Rule on Looking Good
A very big fan of you NRG
NRG is right, cooks have been developing ROMs for ages and a request like that one is supposed to be weird, at least, just because we're used to looking ahead and not to drawing back.
Apart from this, most of the electrical components have no 6.1 drivers and they could get back an unpredictable reaction............. I think we shouldn't read so much into those matters, but WM is supposed to go ahead........... forever.
Whatever I'm going to try it, just for fun.
I don't think there is an official WM 6.1 ROM or cooked 6.1 ROM. So you cant try it.

Have you ever cooked a ROM? All he has to do is grab a WVGA WM6.1 SYS and XIP and throw it into a kitchen. Only things I can think of that may halt this is the lack of 6.1 drivers (multi touch, etc...) and whether a 6.5 OEMXIPKernel would work with 6.1.

and wm 6.5 for ours jewel????????
is possible??????
NO...because 6.5 - as known by now - will only support Touchscreen Devices.
If you find a Touchscreen on your Rose....you can test it
Greetings from Cologne,
Arniebirdy
There IS version of WM 6.5 for non touch screen devices (Standard).

Then it's not really 6.5 is it
Yes it is WM 6.5 . Look at the central screen. Then, the menu is different from WM 6.1.
I'm not really informed on this subject, what's new in WM 6.5 and does it make any sense of upgrading (advantages/disadvantages)?
htc will be releasing a 6.5 std upgrade for this device............ just alarmed at the lack of dev in this forum

how do you know that htc will release a 6.5 upgrade for the S740 model. Because i can't find it on the internet.
Greets
Wow, If that is true then we have all been miss-informed or HTC changed thier mind? If they are going to release a 6.5 upgrade, news to most of us, good news.....Can you confirm where you heard this tidbit of information?
Thanks
Hy!
We will get NO Rom-Update for Rose....only Snap gets Updated.....that Sucks!
I have Ask the HTC Support.....
Sorry for my English.....
I've been doing plenty of research on the forums and it just appears that the best rom, in terms of stability, function, speed and reliability is the Dutty 3.9 XT. Newer versions have some improvements, but with functional setbacks such as sms problems as in 4.3. The new leo roms look fancy, but again they suffer from speed and functionality also! So as a blackstone user and one to show it off to iphone fans, am I right in saying this is one of the few roms we have which is reasonably fast, stable and functional, without coming across an unexpected hickup and the iphone user wins that round!
theres no such thing as perfect ROM
its very personal to what you want to do with your phone and in what way you want to use it and if you want WM 6.1 or WM 6.5 on it,.. especially not to show off to iphone.. i go with Miri's WM 6.5, for me its my favourite, been with it since the beginning, others might thing otherwise, for what its personal
if you worry about iphone users (kids, girls, non-technology knowers most of all) and they got to the point where they dare compare an iphone to a WinMobile phone is enough for you not to waste ur time trying to get in their limited minds,.. let them show off how awesome the iphone is cause it can take pictures, and they autorotate, and how they can access the internet when they are at a wireless hotspot, and that they can access their top 5 favourite websites cause they have a shortcut of each of them on their phone's homepage, and how they have a shortcut for every single thing on their front page for instant access (now isnt that handy, i bet you we all have out PC's desktop FULL of shortcuts ).. so enjoy your phone buddy
well if u want to show off to iphone users. do go for nrg rom's. there are an eye candy, fast and improving (lesser bugs). try photon range of rom's based on 2.1 by nrg
Guys,
I'm wondering, are any 6.5 ROMs as fast as 6.1 ROMs?
Cheers.

I just tried out Duttythroy's WM6.5+HTC Sence (Manila 2.5) and it was kinda laggy so I went back to Stock ROM WM6.1.

It depends on the rom. Some of the new ones (with higher build number) are sooo slow, laggy and unstable... For me the most stable and fastest rom is from XannyTech. Haven´t had any problem for now (using a week) and it´s almost fast as stock rom.
Guys,
Thanks. I've actually, for the first time today, started flashing! I can see why it's addicting, but it got tedious after 2 hours of playing around. Windows Mobile 6.5 has a lot of eyecandy in general, but it's not as functional as I'd like it to be right out of the box. I've tried both Photon and Miri roms that come without Manila.
The experience I had with both was "meh".
I'm just going to install Dutty's Final 6.1 ROM and be done with it until I change phones.
Thanks again guys,
Cheers!
Maryone
I am using maryone 230064 manila 2.5 and it is fast and reliable

Totally agree.
In regards to the most stable 6.1 ROM, you are right on with the Dutty 3.9XT. I am on 4.3 because I am a Dutty freak. Haven't tried anyone else so I have no other experiences, but 3.9 XT FINAL is exceptional.

Trend,
Is this the same as the one in HTCPEDIA's site? With Dutty's 4.3 Final or something along that lines? Because I used Dutty's 4.3 Final from HTCPedia. Is one better than the other?
Cheers.

It should be the same. It came out about the same time when the transition from XDA to HTCpedia was made.

Trend,
Thanks! I'm just a little bummed that Dutty's Magic 8 Ball that was ported from Topaz does not work in Dutty's 4.3 Final.
It just starts up, I get the loading screen, and then it just turns off by itself and I am in Manila once more. I don't know if this is a netframework issue or... I was really looking forward to using HTC's 8 Ball.
Might you know anything about this?
Cheers.

Can't help on that one, I don't know what is is, a game???. I don't do any games on my phone even though I played with teeter one day and loved it.
This is a request, there are a lot of HTC S740 owners who need a rom with Windows Mobile 6.5 standard voor their HTC S740!
Even the HTC S710 (vox), almost 3 years old has a cooked ROM!
Please o please!! Who can be our hero!
you are right...
I was using S710 for 2 years, last time with WM 6.5
They cooked it from HTC Snap.
Why not do it for S740?
Greetings,
RA
I don't know if people need a WM6.5 ROM
Until we have a HardSPL, we can't do anything with regards cooked ROMs. This is being worked on at the moment, but it's a little unfair on the developers to expect them to be able to just click their fingers and magic up a hack. They spend their own time working on these things, whether they do them or not depends on demand and how many people really want it and make donations towards the costs involved in development.
Cooked ROMs are not official...they're hacks, and yes they're fun to use and in some cases quite useful, but nobody has a right to have one made just for them on demand. The standard HTC software is actually very good on the S740.
I'm not saying I wouldn't like to see a WM6.5 ROM, just that you either need more patience or to do it yourself. It takes a LOT of work to customise software.

Hello guys.
I was wondering will HTC give us a new rom but with new WM 6.5.3 like other new devices that coming out soon. It would be very nice to have this new stock rom with that OS on it? Without any bugs or problems like coocked ROMs does?
Did anyone mail HTC or heard rumors about it? Thanks!
Uhm, I might be very wrong here but isn't WinMo 6.5.3 in the 1.66-ROMs?

why not try a cooked rom if you want to see the difference? most cooked roms are available with 6.5.3 or 6.5.5

Bit of a bold statement. I'll personally be suprised if we don't see 6.5.3 or 6.5.5 released for the HD2. It'll be the consellation "prize" when they tell us that we're not officially getting WM7.
I think that they must give us 6.5.3/5 version, because it will be perfect choice for HD2. Excellent hardware + new finger friendly OS = bingo. Best performance and autonomy for us users, and then we dont need any WM 7 or similar toys...
cheers
Im thinking about getting thehd but im not a fan of the winmo6.5 only because of honeycomb menu layout ...its just some ugly & disorganized. Ive downgraded from 6.5 back to 6.1 on my tp2 but I was wondering if would I be able to do the same for my hd2 even tho there is no official 6.1 rom for it that im aware of???
you know you can disable honeycomb and if you install quickmenu you'll have an even better start menu.
are you on day-release?! 6.1 was ****e!
and to be fair, 6.5 aint much better! and then they give a glympse of 7 which looks more of a mess.
From what i can see, 7 has been designed for under 5's to use...
2 more years and windows will be no more on phones!

This is the same issue.
6.1 is awful, truly. As someone else suggested, just disable the honeycomb menu and install quick menu.

This post shows that you do NOT know anything about the business and are leaded by your own taste. You really need to get a sight for a bit more than "just your dishes".
Sorry but i can hardly remember when i read such a bull**** on these forums...
