Sorry everybody, I'm not sharpest tool in a shed, I just need simple info:
is there official Windows Mobile 6.1 released for TyTn II, or not?
Thanks!!
I'd like to know as well...though it doesn't matter much to me since I've already installed Sleuth 3.0 which has 6.1 cooked into it.
Threaded SMS is beautiful to have.
if htc dont have a rom which is 6.1 it's not offical
their site would prob be a dead give away
All of the 6.1 version are based on official MS 6.1 code. It is all test code, as MS just released it to AT&T, HTC, etc.. on April 1st.
You will not see anything but Official "Test" versions until a device ships with 6.1 or until HTC/AT&T/Etc. tweak the OEM Adaptation Layer & then make it available as an upgrade.
But it is just as Official as the MS test version that was unveiled on April 1 & sent to OEM's.
always wondered if there was any major differences needed to know about 6.0 and 6.1

Threaded messaging in 6.1 seems to be one of the major differences I know of

I'm about to buy a Wizard for myself and give the BA to my wife. Will it be possible to upgrade it to an official WM 5 sooner or later? Or is this just a technology demo?
Re: Does the WM 5 mean that there will be an official WM5 RO
as it was said before there would be no official WM5 for existing HTC devices. This is another leaked version. It is a bit buggy, but we'll make it useable.
will "making it usable" also include support for ms reader activation?
I don't use MS reader
a pity. I use it daily to read some books.
The install works fine, it's the activation that isnt working (at least ... not yet).
I'm guessing that MS will have to update their site once a few official WM5 devices have been released

maybe ms will see what people here at xda dev have managed to do with getting most stuff working, and the fact that so many people have installed it might push them to believe that releasing wm5 for blueangels. but I aint bothered, I'm using it fully now, and its running, at the moment better and faster that wm 2003se.
Does someone knows if there is a WM 6.1 ROM for the Wings?
I see several devices that already work with WM 6.1 but I can't find one for the Wings.

I have been wanting to make one. But I cant seem to find a Windows Mobile 6.1 standard version.. Only the Pro for touch screens...
If I can find a standard ROM, what more do I need to create a cooked ROM?

You would need a kichen to cook it.. Kaiser kitchen works.
Hard to tell if you need anything else without alittle try and fail.
But an OS would help a lot.. I tried flashing a Pro version to my wings..
Did not work out well
I'll keep an eye open for the standard version.
it seems that the Motorola Q9 is already equiped with 6.1 standard (possibility to rip the rom?)

Yes, it is possible. But it would come with alot of Motorola SW included, and no HTC SW... So that would take some work I guess..
mmmmm.. first we have to find a person who has such a phone
BTW what is all the buzz for? What are new features/improvements compared to WM6?
It was told that there is more free ram at boot. And hopefuly some minor bug fixes
i really want 6.1
and the demand for a cooked rom is high!!

I think we are all waiting to someone who will make it. To be honest - original ROM is not a masterpiece. My previous device was HTC TyTN and there are many available ROMs for this dev. We have to hope there will appear someone like dutty (IMO best ROM creator for TyTN). Meanwhile we can just sit and cry for him/her
I really want it too.
And i join the queue for request a cooked version of WM6 (maybe one closer to a Pro WM6)

I hardly doubt WM6 Pro could be used as a base. Either it is impossible (most probable) or work on adoption to Standard would be too hard.
Uhmmm...
so u think will not be possible upgrade the S730 to a Pro version??

Yes, I do. In my opinion differences of the architecture of whole OS will be big. And altough I'm really interested in WM generally I didn't hear about any successful attempt of porting from PPC -> Smartphone.
If microsoft officially released WM6.1 standard it should not be so hard to find/rip it? right?
IMO they should just make it available to buy just like any other version of Windows!

Perhaps. In-house geeks always find a way
Hi Guys,
I recently bought a HTC S730 with Windows Mobile 6 standard - I am slightly disappointed with this userfriendlyness of this software (you have to tap/click to many times to get what you want). I have read a lot of posts in these forums, but can not seem to find a way to change.
I am looking for is some newbie step by step guide explaining in detail how I should flash with new modded software... I am an experienced C# developer, so technical things shouldn't be a problem
I have radio version: 25.62.30.03H_1.58.17.02
Hoping for some help.
as to today, there is no new ROM available for the Wings.
but an official flash is easy as.... just run an exe file, the phone reboots, you wait for 10 mins and voila! done.
Not official roms are a bit trickier...
self explanatory really. Will the kaiser get an official version of the wm 6.5 rom when it comes out??? Thanks.
Yeah, we all know but we aren't telling.
no one knows but i think not would be nice if they did
why wouldn't they? Crap, they upgraded us to 6.1 which was nice but still not what that phone needs. Now they are coming out with a much more touch friendly interface and they won't give us that? Why wouldn't we get another upgrade? It's not like the hardware can't handle it. It's barely even out of it's cycle.
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/02/16/microsoft-announces-windows-mobile-6-5/
"Sadly, Microsoft's saying that no devices in the market today will receive official 6.5 updates, but don't pull out your wallets just yet, though -- the first devices with Windows Mobile 6.5 preinstalled should be available in the fourth quarter of the year."
was just wondering if HTC is planning to release a new ROM update for the Diamond?? does any one know?
Mmmm...
New ROM, as in new ROM - or new ROM as in upgrade? My guess is, they may release more ROM's to bug-fix, but if you're waiting for 6.5, don't hold your breath! NOT A CHANCE!!
well, the Rom upgrades are also good especially if they upgrade the TF3D to the one on the Diamond 2, would be nice!
regarding the upgrade to 6.5, i wouldnt exclude that option completely, in 2008, when the WM 6.0 was released, HTC did provide an upgrade to WM 6.0 for the devices running WM 5.0 at that time, not all tho! u can check it out here: http://www.htc.com/uk/support/bulletin.html
cheers!
Mmmm...
As I've said before, if we get any kind of upgrade to anything from the Touch Diamond 2 or WM6.5 from HTC, I'll eat my device and post the video on YouTube for all to see! Thank goodness for all the top chefs here at XDA - who needs HTC when we've already got Diamond 2 ROM's and 6.5 ROM's
Hi,
I would very much like to see a German ROM with the final version of Windows Mobile 6.5, the one we are going to see on October the 6th. I believe it is build 21234, at least that is the one in the SDK.
If possible, I would like the ROM to have all original programs. Nothing should be deleted or added to the image. No tools, no taskmanagers, nothing. No Manila please...
Is it possible to do that? Thank you very much in advance
You have to make a search before posting...see RTT leet rom!
I am using RTT Leet ROMs but this is not what I asked for. I have searched and found nothing! I just want a normal WinMobile build based on the final RTM version of Windows Mobile. Everybody here is cooking much later builds which I don't find very good. They are also removing ringtones, programs and I hate that. I wish I could have an original Windows Mobile ROM with no extra stuff.

Than you are on the false site RTT have realy make a very good job and when you will a offical latest rom for the hd, than go back to the win 6.1 on the htc homepage RTT has remove some things to make his version on the inoffical rom of wm6.5 for the hd really fast and smooth. I tried really many roms and his version is very, very fast. I think you not will find something of your wishes for a rom.
I guess you haven't understood what I wrote...

Who said anything about official ROMs?

Petvas,
I dont think you will find what you are looking for. You may wanted to talk a chef whether he would cook a ROM just for you
Ask buddy count h's a German Cook see here "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=534534" and ask him self to cook a rom for you
I don't think that anyone here would make a ROM just for me. Maybe I should learn to do it myself. I just don't understand why people aren't interested in the final Windows Mobile 6.5 build and like things like Manila. If someone likes Windows Mobile, then he/she should see that Manila is nothing but a threat to Windows Mobile..(and it is slow, just a bad copy of the iPhone). I like to use my stylus too..not only the fingers...

I am sorry but I can’t follow you about the manila.. Manila is just a skin that sits on the WM platform. Manila wouldn’t function if it would not use the data Base given by WM OS. However said that if you don’t like it..Then you just disable it and you have the pure WM
That is unfortunately not correct. There are still things in the ROM that do not belong to the pure WM OS. As I said before I just wish to have a ROM based on the final WM 6.5 OS. How difficult is that?

Well I think it is impossible for what you are looking here or anywhere else. Only one choice "cook" your own rom.
petvas, as far as I know - official WM 6.5 will be launched in October.
Therefore about what official WM 6.5 are you talking about?
yep. you want something that still does not exist. there is no official wm 6.5, only beta releases.

Well, that cannot be true. Windows Mobile 6.5 was released to manufacters at least two months ago, otherwise it wouldn't be possible for them to bring devices on October the 6th. I would just like a ROM based on the RTM build...
Nobody knows what the RTM Build will be.

Well, now we know. It is build 21854
Most custom ROMs have trouble accessing the marketplace...I don't even understand why you guys remove it when cooking the ROM. Please create one with the Marketplace integrated and using the RTM of Windows Mobile 6.5
