There's no official 6.1, just ported third party ROMs. Read the stickies. they will tell you everything you need to know.

As per my knowledge, WM6.1 is officially released for few smartphones only. The PPC version is not yet available.
For dummies like me,
smartphones = windows phone without touchscreen
PPC = Pocket PC = windows phone with touchscreen

There are phones out already with WM6.1 like the TYTNII. However I am aware that there are issues with some of the older programs like E-sword when it comes to the new framework of wm6.1

This rom(opentouch v7.1) is a wm 6.1 build. very smooth and nice looking. Just follow the directions exactly as they say. In my opinion, it is the best rom out there right now for the wing.

I know. My ROMs have a ported wm6.1 build, also. As far as the best rom, it really depends on what you want it to do for you.

No WM6.1 for P3600i

I have just had an e-mail back from HTC Support advising there will be no WM6.1 upgrade offered for the P3600i.
TyTN II will get an official WM6.1 HTC upgrade though.
Man I wish someone was able to crack the P3600i to enable us to flash them with cooked ROMs.
My other half's D810 runs really well on 6.1 so I figure the P3600i would benefit greatly.
Someone must be able to crack it somehow. Please.
no help from me sorry, but out of curiosity which 6.1 ROM do you run on the 810?
you can't bro.. i try downgrade radio or Hrad spl, but failed

I am pretty happy with the results so far.

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).

Any WM 6.5 for HTC Jade/ Touch 3G?

why? We need only Port this. I have windows 6.5 installed in my Hermes. The good on OS 6.5 is for me only the startmenu.
WM 6.5 ROM for BlackStone works on Jade?
Does anyone knows if the BlackStone wm 6.5 ROM is compatible on Jade?
Ruclip,
I only said no because there are still a small number of ROMs for Jade. I do hope that with time we can get more and more and more... with win 6.5, he new manila from diamond 2, etc... People are working hard and I really apreciate everyone's ROM (even if I don't like the ROM itself)... but the no and the laugh was just because we (the "Jaders") are still at the begining... anyways, as I said before: Thanks to everyone who is working hard with new ROMs everyday...
if someone can make a 6.5 rom for jade, i'm available for testing.

Windows 6.5 OS for Roms?

Hey guys,
I know this may be a stupid question, but I just want to confirm it before I go on flashing a new rom.
Since most of the new ROMS are Windows 6.5, am I required to have the 6.5 OS on the phone first? or does the ROM itself come with the OS?
I'm currently on Tmobile and they don't have the 6.5 update yet
Thanks!
No worries at all about not having 6.5 already installed. Just be sure and follow the directions in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
If you don't HardSPL, well...
Edit: I just noticed, you have Touch 3G. You'll want to find the appropriate forum for that phone. I think it's also known as a Jade(?).

No Stock Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM

Hello people! I wish to install a Windows Mobile 6.5 rom on my HD. But have failed to find any stock ROM for the HD. i want to install only stock. Has there never been a release of WM 6.5 by HTC for the HD? Will there ever be?
Im sorry if Im repeating a pre existent thread but trust me I did use the search feature and didnt find a thread talking about this particular issue.
Experts please help. THANKS heavily in advance.

There's no Stock WM6.5 for Touch HD. WM6.5 ROM in this xda is non official ROM. if you want stock ROM, please install WM6.1 for HD. it is official released by HTC
That is sad. But then if I have to install a custom 6.5 rom, wont that make my device unstable? Would it make it slower than now? Custom roms arent stable enough is what I know.

it's not a stability problem!
even WM 6.1 custom non official ROMs are stabler and speeder than WM 6.5 ones...
it's a kernel problem!!
The one used in WM 6.5 custom ROMs is unofficial...and not made by HTC...and that's what made WM 6.5 a little bit slower than WM 6.1...
but (expecially COM2 builds) are stable as well as WM 6.1...just slower (not dued to cooker inexperience but) because HTC didn't develop a 6.5 kernel for our blackstone...
Thanks Kenia for this wonderful rom uv made. I am going through your forum pages currently reading about your rom. It really is awesome work!
By the way, is there a way to install titanium screen and WM 6.5 lock screen on top of stock 6.1 rom?
nope, for titanium and the new lockscreen you will have to install WM 6.5.
There might be some WM 6.5 lockscreen look-a-likes for WM 6.1, but as far as i know it's not possible to have titanium on wm 6.1. Technically it is possible, but a lot of things would have to be modded (which is a looooooot of work) in order to get it to work on WM 6.1

Titanium requires some stuff from system core of WM 6.5...just like the honeycomb start menu...
so it's impossible to port it...
as regards the lockscreen you can have it through the marvelous Co0kie's Home Tab which ebodies this feature...
and you can choose between WM 6.5, HD Mini and iphone-like lockscreen...
Anyway thanks to all for the compliments..

I got the perfect thing for you
You should try Miniterrors Ravage ROM it's in dutch or in WWE.
It is the fastest STOCK 6.5 rom out here on XDA.
You should download the WWE Clean without (or with) HTC Messaging.
It's fast, low battery drainage and it is stock!
Hope it helps!

This looks terrific! But is this rom going to work stable and fast on the HD? Can someone help me more with this please?

please flash first n let us know the feedback. you cannot ask anybody to act on behalf of you. different person, different opinion. try Cloudy 1.9 with or without HTC Messaging... it works perfect for me.
I never presumed anyone to act on my behalf. Because I am only asking for opinions from experts who have run it before on their Blackstones. I have never flashed a custom rom hence probably just a little apprehensive.

There are a lots of roms here, the best way to find what you want its to try, use another phone and take a week to try the diferent roms around here.
If we all like the same, we didn't have a lot of roms around here, see what roms have good feedback, see if you like the style or the coocked app in it and flash.
A stable coocked rom its allways better then stock.
