I think the topic pretty much says it all;
This is a native WM 6.5 blackstone OEMXIPKernel/xip.bin/os.nb.payload - aware of the new Slot 60/Slot 61 virtual memory layout - what does this mean for you as a chef?
Now you don't have to recmod any modules in \SYS anymore, to port over WM 6.5!
But you will need to use a relocation tool that is aware of the new memory layout;
Ervius Visual Kitchen + Bepe's New Kitchen do this with the "Real WM 6.5 AKU" checkbox
There's also a build of "WMReloc" 2.0 floating around that may support this, that would be compatible with the "old style" kitchen (buildos + g'reloc, it would replace g'reloc)

Somebody say THANKS to this guy ??? This is a major breakthrough for us Blackstone chefs cooking with 6.5 !!
Anyway... I got a ROM with this in it already. Check the forum...
Thanks Da_G, you're great as always, it's a big plus for us "Blackstone Users".
This is one of the most awaited goodies to a faster and better WM 6.5 for us.
Thanks again.

Hi,
how can I using this upload with ervius kitchen 10.2 and build 21812?
What to do?
Best regards
Was this compiled by HTC? Does this mean that HTC will release a 6.5 update for the HD?
I think it was a press release around March 2009 where HTC said that customers are able to buy an upgrade to WM 6.5 for some of there phones. Blackstone was mentioned, if i remember correct.
€dit: Sorry, i only found a german press release: http://www.ppc-welt.info/blog/index...h-Pro2,-Touch-HD,-Touch-3G,-Touch-Cruise.html
This nk.exe was made on March 23, 2009
Yes, 1.56 Base ROM

What do you mean - base ROM 1.56?
A question: when a port this XIP with XIPPortexEX i must use "Is an AKU-5 'XIP'" or not?
That nk.exe is from the original 1.56 ROM, but modified by MS to support the WM 6.5 memory slots (footprints).
So when we use this, it will show as ROM version 1.56 during boot.

no flame intended,
but i would like to know what this means for the non-tech readers?
or is it hard to explain?
Hey there,
Am I wrong that there are wm 6.5 betas out there? Where can I get it?
Is there a Manila version for it too?
Bye,
Chris
Hi yes there are WM6.5 Betas about but we need the HardSPL first. Im just waiting for the official release from HTC which will be WM6.5 and TF3D2.5 as i have a retail TP2. Not sure when this will be but hopfully sooner than later.
Once HardSPL has been released im sure there will be lots of chefs cooking WM6.5 Beta ROM for our TP2s
Please read and search before simply asking a question.
Dave
hey guys,
sorry if this was asked before (i searched and i didnt find) ...
---
thanks for the cooked ROMs .. really amazing work ...
but, I tried thousands of times to find a full WM6.1 capabilities (like the official version) with Manila 2.5 and I DIDN'T FIND one ..
the best one i found was from Miri .. but also not good ... missing so many things ...
can't you work on the official version and just add manila 2.5 ????????
I hope that we can get such WM ....
Thanks
locked thread allready.If you dont know anything about roms in general its absolutely ok.But starting a new thread asking for something so ... its spaming the xda's rom developement forum.(even if its quiet lately)Manilla 2.5 isnt even out there,and its too buggy yet.Cooked roms are optimized and in 99% of the cases much faster and accepting.(i mean in terms of compatibility with stuff or software,like 2.5 manila in that case)
I am not a mod, but i think fallen spartan will just tell you the same.I dont mean to be offensive mate,hope you understand.
~
I told you from the begging .. i like the work done by XDA Developers ..
but, i really wanna use the Manila 2.5 ... i tried so many versions , and they're all buggy and heating the device .. in addition, a very important softwares are not found also ...
I'm just willing to find a normal WM_6.1 but with Manila 2.5 ...
That's all ...
Sorry again for the way i used ...
and i admit it that I don't know anything about ROM developing ..
and thanks
I'll back to my studying ... I have FINAL exam after tomorrow ...
wish me luck guys !
Brother Mostafa,
There is nothing wrong seeking info about ROM developments and any development has one single purpose - help the users!. Not everyone is ROM shef or cook and all-in-one expert. Majority are users; and a real developer would always be pleased to inform you the best.
Otherwise! this forum should be reserved only for COOKs, Shefs, Testers and the Users should start another forum to seek info.
Want to use manila 2.5 without bugs? You got to wait,thats all i said..(to keep it simple)
I think that (official WM6.1 + Manilla2.5) = slow ROM & depleted RAM. I'd better choose a custom 6.1 for that purpose
There will not be any official WM6.1+Manila 2.5
Manila 2.5 designed for WM6.5
If anyone here complaining about bugs in Manila 2.5 better try Dutty's Leo R2

thanks indeed ... .. these are the answers that we're looking for !
you know what ... maybe my situation is not good for me to be a developer .. but i really like that aspect ...
i live in Cyprus .. and there is no HTC branch even ..
if, for example, my mobile battery got corrupted, i'll not be able to buy new one ! ... even to ship from Amazon or eBay come to cyprus ...
I'll try to learn some .. this holiday ! ...

before your thread is closed by admin, i think you can try Miri's WM6.1+Manila 2.5. this combination will never be OFFICIAL as Manila 2.5 is designed for wm6.5. anyways Miri made such a magic but dont expect it's bug free, ok?
yes, starting a new thread here is not easy. people will ask you to search search search... i dont like it this way too, but i think this is the only way to keep this forum clean indeed.
good luck

Manila 2.6 is not 2.6 it is 2.5.1 but has been nicknamed 2.6, dont think you will see a cab for 2.5 due to the complexity of the many files involved, and the various parts of the system it skins etc. I think you will be waiting a very long time for this!

Manila 2.5 is not meant for wm6.1, there will always be some incompatibilities and this will continue with future mnaila versions.
Think all of your queries have been answered. Don't want this thread to become a personal Q&A thread. Best advice would be to read & research. I'm always available when online to answer future queries

Have sb links to download manila 2.6 without wm6.5-ONLY MANILA 2.6?
I' m searching ONLY manila 2.6, because i don't enjoy wm6.5 and there isn't wm6.5 in polish language- so i don't understand lots of system options-but tf3d 2.6 i can understand in eng lang.

manila wouldnt exist without the Philippines! LOL
manila wont (will never) run without windows 6.5
ok, thanks
chefs like Miri have manila 2.6 running on WM6.1. so it is possible!
So, has sb instruction how to install m2.6 for wm6.1?
For manila 2.5+ to operate you need windows on your device, i.e. either wm6.1 or wm6.5, though there is a lot of incompatibility issues with wm6.1 and manila 2.5. Miri has done a great job with this previously but rom still had a few issues. If you search Miri's threads you'll find it
Searching everywhere i could not find a single thread dedicated for
blackstone windows mobile 6.1 ROMS
in different threads around i found out that a lot of people still prefer 6.1 versions of blackstone roms for its speed and reliability and I did try several ROMs for different cookers using 6.5 and 6.1 and i have to admit that microsoft windows mobile 6.5 is a great disappointment for a lot of people including myself ... its not the cookers its that windows mobile OS 6.5 sucks ...
therefore i have decided to create this thread to be the place to find the latest 6.1 ROM for our beloved blackstone and i hope we can find new ones here ... cookers stopped developing 6.1 for months now they say it is becoming something of the past and 6.5 is getting more and more builds everyday and trying each one requires flashing several times and it takes time so there is no more time for cooking 6.1 ROMs 6.1 that our blackstone was designed for ! and runs it so smoothly and faster than any ROM around ... looking at the benchmark you will find the first 20 to 25 fastest ROMs are running 6.1 !!
the latest 6.1 ROM i found is Topix 3.1.2 Oct.28.2009 not even in a thread of its own to separate it from 6.5 discussions it is a perfect ROM but I would love to run a 6.1 from NRG or Miri created in 2010 !
+1 support.specialy l26 ultimate v4 rom maybe with 6.1..
I think you need to try = TOPAZ Vanilla WM 6.1
ROM
- Blackstone 1.59.709.0 rom xip and drivers

- Riphone 1.14

I did but i prefer Topix ... it is more stable and facebook doesnt crash manila at all and you do not need to edit registries for it to work
how about Laurentius ROM 3.55? even it's old but seems very promising

yes i know they are on the wiki but this list of 6.1 roms is much smaller than it should be and the latest of them is old what i am asking for is new 6.1 roms to be added to the list

making a new 6.1 rom for blackstone or asking cookers to keep developing this version of windows mobile for black stone is a "Blackstone ROM development"
thank you
I for one would also be interested in more WM6.1 development.
I got lost with all this 6.5 and Sense stuff, was going to sell the HD is was so slow and annoying, flashed to Topix 6.1 and WOW, I had forgotten how fast the HD was...
Bring on some more 6.1 development PLEASE
topix wm6.1 is the way to go.
alas, if someone release a better (e.g. more preconfigured ) rom, i bet they would get lots of followers simply because the speed of wm6.1 is awesome
can someone posts an (active) link for a 6.1 ROM without Manila? the only i know is the Superlite by Onkolog but the link is dead...and i don't want thousand useless Manila files(over 40mb) on my HD, better MS3 for me...thanks
+1 for more wm6.1 roms, it seems that this is the OS which will bring the best out of this device.

Really a question for the Chefs.
Guys,
There maybe a few issues with this.
I'm not 100% sure but I don't think MS has released any updated builds of v6.1 (Could be wrong) that our beloved chefs could get their hands on.
Not that I have any cooking skills but I would think that all our chefs have modded their kitchens to deal with v6.5.xx and may not be willing to take, what they may see, as a step back.
This of course is just my humble opinion but I guess the most likely thing to do would be to ask the chefs themselves.

I'm totally with you on that. I never use Manila when MS3 is so nice.
I do appreciate that cookers want to try and fit in the latest and greatest, but it seems to me the latest and greatest is just going to get slower and slower. The HD is great and all, but speedwise it's not much better than the ancient Blue Angel. Heh, thinking that makes me want to see if I still have an old BA lying around and see how IT handles 6.5!
In any case it seems fairly evident that 6.5 has some speed issues compared to 6.1. Now I have no idea personally why that is, whether it's just Manila or the OS itself. Regardless it'd be nice if 6.1 wasn't forgotten all together.

the latest build is 21055 as shown in the screen shot from topix rom 3.1.2 but this Rom has manila 2.1 ... it works fast as nothing else and the manila version without weather animation is very decent but you are asking for a rom without manila
this is one of the reasons I wanted this thread ! we do not even have a clean version of our favorite os with the latest build only manila versions
More 6.1 roms, 6.5 (sense) roms are not made for Blackstone!
ok, sense is looking cool, but why cant some one make 6.1 rom with colors at the tab. and just make it for speed and everyday use. no fancy stuff! FAST FAST FAST!
roms with 6.5 have 50% rom use. 6.1 roms have 32% rom use.. big differens i think..
