Two questions before I upgrade to wm6.1

Ok I just upgraded to the wing from the MDA and am looking to make the jump to wim6.1. I am "not" a newb to flashing, my MDA was running 6.1. I want to flash the wing using WM6.1 Slim Edition v2.2 link below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=367375
My questions are:
1. Will flashing change my camera or will it remain the same?
2. Is there a cab for sliding sound? I would like to reinstall it after the flash.

I don't know the implications of trying to flash an MDA rom onto a WING...
I've never personally tried this type of flash, but to my understanding, you shouldn't cross flash roms...

What I'm basically looking for is a clean wm6.1, with little preloaded apps and this particular rom was just what I was looking for. It ran great on my MDA and I was hoping to use it on the wing.

Me Too!
I'm also trying to find a clean pure wm6.1 rom for my wing. I've looked everywhere, and all I can find is modified roms with added stuff. I'm just trying to find a rom that has only the core original apps in it that come with wm6.1. I settled for an "orginal" rom from HTC for the herald that was newer than the one in my stock Wing, and that got me to wm6.1, but even that seems like it has extra stuff in it. Does anyone know what the cleanest, purest rom that you can get that will run quickly and doesn't have any mods, tweaks, extra apps, etc in it? I'd really apprecaite it because I have been searching forum after forum to try to find one.

Some questions

Hi!
After installing the HTC Toupad on my Kaiser, I have experienced big problems. Letters on the Keyboard (QWASYX) didn't work and even the onscreen keyboard didn't recognized these letters. So I decided to uninstall the application. But now I have other problems with my Kaiser and so I decided to Hardreset my device. But before I do this, I want to upgrade my Kaiser to WM6.1 and update it to the newest ROM/Radio.
Now I have some questions relating to that.
As a result that I am a Super Moderator in another forum I know that it is bugging if people don't read the Wiki/FAQs. I have read them, but I don't understand many things :-|
I have handled it to unlock my device, but when I was reading about updating to WM6.1, I saw only things like: "... works only with 6.1", update this, update that, and I don't know in which order.
First of all: Could anyone explain me how to update my Kaiser to WM6.1 and the newest Radio?
Secondly: What is this Duty FW? Is it a modified Rom with added apps?
Finally: I have a normal Kaiser. Not a Vario III, AT&T or something like that. Just the austrian version of the Kaiser with no brandings and so it would be good to have a Firmware without any brandings.
Thx in advance.
BTW:
ROM version: 1.56.405.5
Radio version: 1.27.12.11
Oh, I have forgotten one thing: Is it possible to change the LED blinking in the Phone Mode? To change it from green to blue?

The letter problem you were having was a simple fix with a cab that can be found all across this forum. All the ROM's can be found in the ROM Development forum and as far as what has been changed, modified, added, programs list, can all be found in the FIRST or SECOND post of each of the ROM's. So you will just have to read through them and find one that suits you best as they all have something different. Most of the radio's that can only be used on 6.1 ROM's will say "Will only work on 6.1 ROM's". And I would like to add even though you don't have at&t DON'T FLASH THE 1.65.17.10 RADIO.

Ok, thx first of all. Dutys rom sounds nice. What do I have to do first? It is still a little mystery for me ^^

You need to make sure before you flash a rom on to your kaiser that you flash hardspl - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679, and than after successfully installing that you can flash the rom of your choice. Please read the first sticky thread under the kiaser rom development form - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369282; it has all the info you need pretaining to everything involved when it comes to flashing your kaiser. I strongly recommend you go through it and read the posts it points to that are relevant to flashing.
Once you have done that it is pretty simple process; just do yourself the huge favor and don't flash until you have flashed hardspl or you will brick your phone.

If its still a mystery I would start here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser#ROMx20.Upgrading
No pun intended.

@thesire
I have already installed HardSPL. Otherwise I couldn't have unlocked my device with this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361039
I have used just the Sim Unlocker Method. Not the Kaiser SIM/CID Unlocker & Changer
That's the reason, why my mobile phone is now with an english language
Just one important question: Do I have to change my current radio for the new Duty Release?
@KDKobes
Why shouldn't I flash THE 1.65.17.10 RADIO?

Some ROM's come with radio's some don't. Most of Dutty's ROM's come with radio's, but if you want to keep your radio then I would suggest finding a ROM without a radio in it or making sure yours is compatible with the WM 6.1 and reflash it back. The 1.65.17.10 radio will lock your phone to that radio only and you will not be able to change it until somebody can fix it. Alot of people are stuck with that radio now and can't change.

HTC releases ROM Upgrade

HTC finally released a ROM upgrade for the Wing. Appears to be just Windows Mobile 6.1, but I'm no expert. Did it fix the Pagepool?
Anyway, here it is:
https://support.t-mobile.com/knowbase/root/public/tm52082.htm?&A2L.SERVICE=SystemUpgrade

I run this updated for a couple days and had many problems. I ended up flashing back to the older ROM

may be you should have read more before posting this thread, cause there is already like 3 threads about this. But anyways, the ROM is still 6.0 not 6.1, and it sucks just as much as the orignal. Plus in some cases it can cause serious problems while loading the ROM. In anycase, my reccomendation would just be to flash a custom ROM.

Wing ROM
Sorry! As you see, I am a junior member, so when I didn't see this posted, thought I'd disseminate some useful info. As you are an authority, a few questions: other than the Pagepool fix and unloading a few useless Microsoft programs, is there any benefit to using an homebrew ROM? This assuming you have your Wing tweaked to perfection with the old ROM.
Also, ?is it possible to use Sprite Backup to restore your system to a new ROM? or does each program and tweak need to be separately placed and adjusted.
Thanks,
Paul D.

yep.
newer builds=faster=more awesome
also you don't have to tweak it yourself

Wing ROM
Thanks. Which ROM do you recommend? My Wing has the Battery Status for speed, Pagepool for memory, iFonz for program selection, S2U2 for class, and Inesoft Dialer/Address book for communication with ease. It's a little slow but not annoyingly so.
Again all advice is appreciated.
Paul D.

If you customize your wing a lot it's the best you start with one of the lite version of roms to enable you the most out of your storage space and program memory.
I personally use open touch v4 but there are many good roms. Check the rom review thread in the rom section.

windows mobile 6.5

anyone running this OS on their Diamond? If so, please link to download, and provide details on if it works well, smoothly, bugs, etc. I have searched but do not find a hardspl for my cdma diamond.
my understanding is I need to:
1. download 6.5 hardspl for Sprint cdma diamond
2. update the rom after the hardspl is loaded
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks

There out their! LOOK! MightyROM is so far the best you just need Fave People, the picture mail app that sprint didn't make, and change the location the photos save at to using advance config

Man ... get yourself over to PPCGeeks and the Diamond upgrade forum. Plenty of info and roms to choose from.
note: the forums have been up and down the last couple of days, so you may have to wait until the issues are dealt with.

Precisely.
My favorites would be
STX
Mighty 6
Demolition
SSK
in that order as far as 6.5 is concerned. For 6.1, I would say Mighty 4 and intx 2.5 or premiere.

im running EnergyROM and love it

I'm on Mighty Rom 6, but the battery drains quicker than my stock rom. Any idea why?

Forgive the noob question but...If I install a cooked ROM on my Telus Diamond will I still have Telus functionality as in cell service, etc? Would Telus be able to tell and then cut my service or something? What would be the ramifications of installing another ROM? Other than the risk of bricking my device what, if anything, would I lose.

expire in 30 days
got it running great thru juicy rom , 6.5 is awesome, but says will wm6.5 pro will expire in 30 days. What?!?

Downgrade To W.M 6.1

How To downgrade w.m 6.5 To w.m 6.1 ?
I Search All The Fourm , But Not Find Anything ..

down a 6.1 rom

Your search was flawed.
If you really searched, you would find this: Blackstone Wiki with all informations you need.

download a 6.1 rom you like, do task29 first and flash it.

It's so easy! if you have already done HSPL, and I'm sure you've done it before, if you have wm6.5 now
I by myself several times switched between 6.5.x & 6.1, all you have to do is to download a ROM of WM6.1!
here below you can see some of them!
1. Topix 3.5 WM6.1 Manila 2.1
2. Park Basic 1.3
3. Cloudy 0.2
4. Black New III by Kenia

And USPL will do nicely - my HD is working proof...
Performing Task 29 would not be bad idea if device was flashed often.
I recommend to flash latest stock 6.1 ROM you can find for your device. If not, latest Orange UK will be pretty good choice, due to later version of radio (1.14).
AFAIK, Park Basic is discontinued...

I would suggest to flash a stock ROM since it already has 6.1 and then flash a 6.1 ROM of your choice. I've experienced issues when i downgrade from 6.5 to 6.1 sometimes.
Just to be on the safer side, flash the stock rom and then flash the 6.1 rom of your choice.

I would suggest to flush stock rom and to stay with it The last one for ORANGE is a perfect rom imho

A guide for downgrading already exists. Just scroll down to the ottom of the first post in this thread

Reservations about Orange ROM
Hi, I wouldn't use the Orange ROM. I spent some time getting rid of it. Main drawback is the AGPS. It insists on making a data call everytime you want to use GPS software. Also, no Google mobile map, and when downloaded from Google, no satellite view. I would recommend the standard HTC 1.56 ROM, that uses just GPS and is just as quick.
Regards
Mike

I have Garmin and Igo software working flawlessly. No data calls made ever. GPS works fine. I dont use googlemaps so no opinion on that

I made a 6.1 ROM a while back.. check my "Energy" thread for it.

Well, a-GPS can be easily disabled, so that's no big deal. There are several tools to do that here on forum, like HD Tweak. And you HAVE TO disable it if using iGO...
But standard ROM is also not a bad idea... not bad at all...

Can't agree more With all due respect and gratitude to the cooks and the hard work and efforts they put into their roms, for a basic user like me the stock rom turns out to be the best and Ive tested quite a few custom ones.
