I'm still running StockOS (WM6-German). Since I'm running out of storage memory I decided to flash my device (VPA Compact IV). Particularly I would like to flash WM6.1 but I'm heavily depending on Windows Live Messenger. My problem is, that it seems that no 6.1 ROM has WLM included. Also installing WLM separately won't work, because all those standalone WLM cabs seem to be only working w/ WM6.
Does anyone know of a Custom 6.1 ROM where WLM is working properly?

@cooks: why do the newer releases not include wlm anymore? (just curious)
search for windows mobile fixed. it works.
By the way are there gonna be any official 6.1 WM versions for the Herald?

No. It's considered an "out of date" or "out of circulation" phone. They haven't released anything for a LONG time.
We tend to not release ROMs with VLM on it because it takes up RAM and storage and most of us don't use it.
Use any ROM you'd like
Here are the .cab files. They work when Installed on Storage Card.
Hi,
I thought that Skype is not working with WM6.1, but I downloaded the dutty's ROM - Dutty's WM6.1 Hybrid v2 5.2.19716/5.2.19700 and it works.
Does anyone know how to talk other WM6.1 roms into working with skype?
Thanx.

First, this should be posted in the software section, just for future reference because it deals with skype more than ROM development.
Second, Skype incompatibility with WM6.1 roms is a known issue and they are working on it, but it doesn't seem that important to them at the moment so we'll have to wait till they fix their software to get full functionality.
Third, most of the roms, including dutty's, which work with skype are ports from other devices. There is no official Kaiser rom that works with skype. I know Garmin's new rom for certain works with Skype as i have used it. Most chef's list skype's compatiblity/incompatibility in their first couple posts so i recommend you look around at a few.

Or you could just go to the phone manufacturers website and download the applicable file there and follow their (comprehensive) instructions. If you want to keep things all official, it's actually a very straightforward process. You only need to bother with hardSPL etc if you want to flash a custom ROM. A very important question you should ask yourself is why do I want WM 6.1. If you're thinking it's newer so it must be more reliable/better/faster etc etc check out the threads in Kaiser General relating to all the problems after upgrading - at least with regards to most of the official HTC ROM offerings (certainly the current UK one is included). I tried WM 6.1 for a while and had such significant problems, I had it reverted back to 6.0.
MMMMMM
To me WM 6.1 appearance is more sexier than the WM 6.0. Thats why am looking to upgrade my device in to WM 6.1
Flying Kiwi has a point about doing it officially - I'd forgotten that there was an official 6.1 rom. That said, for me custom roms are much more fun!
I've had both 6.0 and 6.1 on my phones and to be honest, I can't tell the difference.

What are you doing with your phone ......
Having tried both, there's very little difference between the two as far as the TyTN II native ROMs are concerned. It's only the customised ROMs that offer a flashier flash (but you can also get alot of that stuff through installing cabs - full details in the wiki and by searching/reading up on the xda-dev website).
Original posted edited, irrelevant,
I just like everyone to know if you dont that the Marketplace is working and functioning on WM 6.1 Roms. I downloaded that cab from Lao I belive and installed it in my NATF 4.7 Rom and works like a charm just a fyi
whats a marketplace and how do i get it on my wm6.5 rom?
think of apples iphone app store. market place is that for WM phones,
should be cooked into 6.5 rom depending on the chef if not there is a cab here i found you would install it and run it. it will update and install the new version and should work from there again i have Rom from NATF 4.7 WM6.1 rom and works fine. found the cab somewhere around here
cabs name file is
Lou Marketplace.cab

SE never provided/released such a rom for the X1, the answer is therefore: nowhere, it does not exist
original ones are all 6.1 (you can find them here, the 6.5 releases are ported by chefs
best
ok. but where can i download the standard version 6.5 without modifikation. (without sms lag). thx
well, there is also nothing like a standard version of wm6.5 as the porting automatically implies customization
checking for thread titles containing 6.5 and light, clean, pure,... should at least provide you one with minimal customization
what sms lag are you referring too?
ok. thanks for quick answer and for the link. i download me the original windows 6.1. all windows with modifications maked me crazy (lags and bugs)
That's exactly why I have always used stock (original) roms. They simply work. And you can cusomize those so they are almost as finger friendly as WM 6.5. But I know that discussing stock and custom rom can almost be as critical as discussing religion.
