Updated Roms - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development

Is there any stock T-Mobile roms that have been upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.5? I tried out a few roms on here and none of them is working out for me, some even have minor issues with the speed of my TP2.

What exactly are you trying to ask...
Are you asking if TmoUS has released an official 6.5 ROM update?
As far as the ROM's on this site, you would have to shoot me before I go back to a branded ROM. The chef's on this site have done a great job in bringing us cooked ROMs that are far superior than anything any carrier could release to us.

Check your providers website to see if there are official updates.
Some websites posted some info about the release dates of WM6.5. Do a search for that...

I'm not trying to say that the roms on this site isn't good, I'm just saying in my opinion that they aren't good for me. I went to T-Mobile's Windows Mobile Upgrade website and there isn't even the original rom up there for the Rhodium/TP2. They have it for the older phones like the HTC Wing, Shadow, Dash 3G

Well if all you are looking for is the Stock TmoUS rom, someone has dumped and rebuilt it for the Tmo forum users.
Mind you this is the WinMo 6.1 rom that the TP2 was launched with.
As far as a 6.5 version, nothing has been released yet by TmoUS as far as I know.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550975
Hope this helps.

Noonothing has not released yet, give it a week or 2.

the release is from TMobile De
and here http://www.t-mobile.de/downloads/neu/mda_vario_v.zip you can download it.
The build is 21854

That's bull. The ROM doesn't care on your OS, you can use MacOS for all it cares. If you have flashed a 6.0 ROM before then just flash a 6.1 ROM.
Note: you will have to Flash a 6.1 compatable radio, if it isn't included in the ROM.
If you hav'nt flashed before, read the Getting Started Link in my sig.
Ta,
Dave
What 6.1 ROM are you speaking about? One of the many cooked ROMs found in this forum or the M$ official one?
the microsoft rom, i have never done a rom burn just read up on it and consider it. kinda want to let my phone be atleast a month old before i start to burn new roms.
As far as I know the M$ 6.1 ROM has not been released but just officially announced and it's up to the manufactures to release it. I could be wrong but thats how I read it.
you are looking at a page for Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 for Vista, a desktop interface...
...not Windows Mobile 6.1
Here's a really naive question - if WM 6.1 hasn't been officially announced or released (least of all for the Kaiser) where do the various cooked versions of it come from, and how does anyone know that they're definitely the full 6.1, and not just some prototype-like sample? I mean, isn't there a chance that the actual 6.1 that MS announce and HTC start releasing for phones will be different?

Thats a secret of our chefs.

That's what I did. I think this way is best cos when you flash you REALLY feel the speed increase
But just for clarification, as boomermax said, were you looking at Windows Mobile Device Centre? If so, this is Vista's version of ActiveSync, ActiveSync can no longer be used in Vista.
Inquiry About Windows Mobile 6.1

HTC has no official documentation or details about the use or release of Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1.

Also the e-mail I sent to AT&T asking the same question, was told that the manufacturer (HTC) would be providing a ROM update if there was one... So apparently it's still a mystery!
I'd just like to point out that theres an "official" wm6.1 rom out there that vodafone use...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365058
...just incase you didnt find it before. it comes with the correct radio, and even tho its "vodafone", ive been using tmobile on it fine, so it doesnt matter if youre not using voda
Officially the Official ????

I see official ROMs all over XDA!!!What makes this one any different? When I see an Official ROM from the manufacture, then I'll be happy....
but why would a company such as vodafone not use an official rom?
or are you implying that this was never from vodafone?
but yea, if micropoop pull their finger out and release wm6.1 or even wm7, that would be nice...

I'm just saying that if I goto the Manufacture or carriers web site and see the official Update, then I will be happy and believe it's official. Most of the WM6.1 ROMs in this forum have come from leaked versions or something like that. I think It's top secret!
ahhh i see what you mean...
...tho, i'd be very suprised if vodafone actually put up useful information/updates on their site

ALL AT&T Tilt Owners Have Been Left Behind

The AT&T Tilt did not recievve a ROM update today. This means no accelerated graphics for us and no WM 6.1. Thank you HTC and AT&T you have all been a big help.

Old news ! Not nice to start a " new " thread for something we had not expected anyway.
Yeah, I know its old news. But even so, a large amount of people do not know this, so its still worth posting.
Do you realize what board you're on? Don't generalize, you have been left behind, not me. I've been running WM6.1 on my Tilt since the winter when it first leaked and have been running the lasted build since Monday.

Everyone here knows this and it is not worth posting as you will find out.
No, I have browsed through some threads and it seemed that a decent amount of people had not realized that only the HTC-Branded devices had recieved the update.
People who read stuff already knew for like a month that the update would probably be only for HTC branded devices, I guess you don't.
Anyways, it doesn't mean there won't be official updates for you, just that your company, whichever it is, will have to customize things first before releasing a rom, especially adding all their bloatware.
Oh, and about accelerated graphics, please, noone got them, it's not that you're a special target.
I know that there were some "fixes" but no drivers, and it has been said that ATT users will get it, just when they get ready to release it after adding all their crap.

I am here to help , what was the question ? I just heard a rant that the mods have said ( continually ) is not appropriate for these forums. If you read the official announcement from HTC when they announced the TYtN upgrade, they said that they had no plans to release an upgrade fer the Tilt in the near future. Why is this rant important to this forum?
What are you talking about denco? This is not even a rant, it is a statement. I did not mean for it to be a rant and I did not mean for people to mistake it as one. I merely meant to inform people that only the branded HTC devices got the update. It appeared as though alot of people had not realized this, or, at least enough for me to post. I can even show you some quotes if you need me too.
Denco, please look up the definition of 'rant'.
htc rom
Just talked to HTC. There is no 6.1 rom from them for the HTC phones (mine is the TYTN II) available anywhere on the globe.

I am not trying to entice the argument here, but i will add couple of things:
a) Most of the "regular" members here at xda already know that the tilt or any other branded version of the tytnII will not be getting the updates. (emphasis on regular).
b) none of the xda members really care about official updates as we have very gifted and talented chefs here that can port roms for us (and we are truly greatful for that) and seeing that the only diffrence between the TytnII and tilt is the front camera that shouldn't be a big deal.
c) drivers (which there aren't none) can also be ported. There are chefs already working on porting the diamond drivers over to tilt which runs vga.
Having said that i would like to thank you for the info ... but unfortunately its old news and no one likes repeatedly hearing old news.

I very nearly downloaded this one by mistake. I registered with htc but my phone S/N is not a real HTC device and was still logged in, but I managed to (mistakenly) download the file from that link without much issue.
That help?
That's still only 6.0..

I don't know who you spoke with but they were wrong; I just ran the HTC RUU (Rom Upgrade Utility) from the HTC e-club web site and the splash screen clearly states Windows Mobile 6.1. I have an HTC TYTN II and it works great.

The thing that puzzles me about this is the way the AT&T Tilt gets singled out as if it's special - in reality it's just one dozens of rebranded Kaisers around the globe, none of which have had an official update. I have a "Vodafone V1615", am I whining about where to download a Vodafone update for my Vodafone V1615? No, of course not, with the help of this forum it's been running the original HTC rom since October, and upgraded to the HTC 6.1 update a couple of days ago (before it was released by HTC in fact). So what's the problem?
The irony is the AT&T Tilt is (I believe) the only variant to have it's own section of the HTC website, and to actually have already had a rom upgrade back in February, albeit 6.0 only. Where are all the complaints about that from owners of the V1615, or the T-Mobile Vario 3, or the Orange Tytn II, or O2 XDA Stellar, or the "3" Tytn II, etc etc..?

Windows Mobile 6.1 - Tilt

hey guys, anyone know where / when the 6.1 software will be available for the Tilt?
I was told in the month of July, however I have visited the htc site and no 6.1 update is available, any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
Chris
I read this morning on another forum that someone had talked to an Att rep and its looking like mid August. Not sure of the validity of it though
there are alot of great 6.1 options here. look around you may find out that they are better than "official" roms.
dude official wm6.1 available since February 2008! check this out

All of the WM6.1 roms for AT&T are leaked/pre-released/testing version. AT&T hasn't released its Official WM6.1 as of yet. No one really seems to know for sure (AT&T included) as to when they will ship out their 6.1 rom. I've heard July (which has passed), August, and September, as well as the cynical "Never".
Your best way of knowing is that it'll most likely be a few months after everyone else has done it and moved on.
edit: Just to add some more hearsay, check out the AT&T forum here. Some say AT&T is preparing their support staff for 6.1 questions. If true, then it's a positive note. But once again, this is all hearsay till there's an official note from AT&T. And even then it's not set in stone.
Ok XDA, step up!
LOL...come on you guys, there are confirmed reports that the "official" at&t roms have been spotted in the tilt. You mean you guys haven't been able to find one
to hack into yet? LOL....
Just kidding. After the "official" tilt rom comes out, I'll think if I want that or one of the cooked ones. I don't know if I want to bother with a cooked one. If my phone goes down, I'm screwed. I use pocket word, outlook, excel, acrobat dozens of times a day. I go through screen protectors (I use the old style palm transcriber) about once a month or more.
Seriously...keep up the work you cookers!
Dont Know
I spoke to ATT CS regarding same last week. She told me that , Its available with ATT but she is not sure when we will get it. Other thing she told me was to check the windows update in the phone, whenever they wil make it official for upgrade we can get upgrade via windows update.
I dont know if any other reason is there, but hope to get it ASAP, and looking forward to explorer 6.1
Cheers!
Amey
Whats really funny about this is that my local ATT Store now has signs next to the Tilt saying "Now Loaded with WM 6.1" or something like that, listing the threaded texting and other benefits. I asked the rep what the deal was and he said it would be available shortly, so I asked why the sign was out now and he said because they were told to put them out.

To date MS has done nothing with the update function.
WM6.1 will require a complete ROM replacement and there is no way they can do this via an update downloaded to the phone. Like the other ROM update from earlier this year, when this is officially available it will be posted for download on HTC's site and will need to performed from a connected PC.

Yes, i have talked to the people from HTC, and when it is ready which 'should be soon' then go to www.htc.com -> pick your country -> support -> choose your phone -> updates
Its out on the UK O2 site, just found it. Now if I install it I will have to re install all my apps and stuff again wont I ?
Any way I can make a complete back up of my phone and the apps as is , so I can go back to my 'working ' set up if I come up with problems ?

neither of these links go anywhere
I was at a blog this morning and it was stated there that the ROM was at the HTC.com site stated above. As everyone knows, it is not there now. Although one of the comments on the page states the following that I found interesting: "HTC had the ROM upgrade available breifly. Then they removed the upgrade but left the page declaring that 6.1 was available. Now the page that was declaring WM6.1 is gone and refers to the WM6.0 rom from February. A few people had success in getting the 6.1 ROM image." Whether or not this is true can not be determined, but at least it gives me hope that it may be released soon (although we have seen this happen many times in the past).
My source for this info: http://blogs.msdn.com/jasonlan/arch...-6-1-upgrade-for-at-t-tilt-now-available.aspx
if anyone downloaded it, I can't figure out why it hasn't made its way over here somewhere. From the looks of the post count on the at&t forum site, there are 2,352,465.5 people waiting for it LOL.

Information of 6.5 for X1 on Facebook?

I was boring searching about X1 and 6.5, and I find this message published yesterday on facebook, about a guy that talks about a 6.5 ROM that XDA has got. I suppose that is talking about the Itje ROM. But the thing that I saw amazing is that he said he called Sony Ericsson and they him to them that it will be an update after X2 were released. Don't you understand this reading the message? I attach the link to the message to this post:
http://es-la.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=39963827922&topic=11173
Best regards
Complete bs, IMO.
there is no update. the build he is talking about is the one itje has but SE has said that a 6.5 build will never be released. the build was only for testing purposes.
i think we should wait and see, up to time there is no official info stating that the x1 will never or it will get 6.5, even tho on their blog they stated
We picked up on a couple of rumours from yesterday that an official X1 Windows Mobile 6.5 rom had surfaced on XDA developers. Just wanted to be clear that this isn’t true.
There is no official X1 6.5 rom and it’s not in the X1’s product roadmap. There are hackers out there who can do pretty much anything, but unless you’re getting it from the SE update service it isn’t an official Sony Ericsson product.
so lets wait and see if they will or will not

at least 1 of the firmware update was on the roadmap, the second came when they did not sort out all the bugs in the r2 update.
u will find its in plain english. its not in the x1 roadmap and everyone knows that when the x2 is released SE will stop production of the x1 and stop updating the firmware.
I will make it easy for u to understand. if u want 6.5, SE wants u to buy an x2

I don't think the Sony blog could have been any more clear about there not being an official 6.5 release.
First they say that itje's ROM is not an official release (which most likely means that it is an internal testing ROM that was leaked
Then they say that there is no official 6.5 ROM out there.
And then they say that they have no plans to make an official 6.5 ROM.
It seems very clear to me can they change their minds? Possible, but very unlikely.

dont hate the game hate the noobs

hi there people, dont hate me and apologies if this question either seems ignorant or whether its been answered before.
so here goes...
ive got a branded vodafone tp2, its sim unlocked so im using a Tmob UK sim inside and loving every minute, awesome fone.
now i can see there's a buzz about getting wm6.5 official ROM onto my device so im wondering a few things.
I went to the HTC web site and tried to download the official ROM but it mentioned it wasnt suitable for my device, ill put that down to it being branded/raped by Voda..?
what im wondering also is, if i could get the official unbranded wm6.5 ROM onto my unit (my mate has just upgraded his from HTC as it was unbranded at POS so will try n get him to upload onto my unit)would it work?
ill have to admit ive been a fan sice getting my first HTC fone (the Universal) years ago but have now realised that if u want a decent experience to next time go unbranded.
do you guys think ill have to wait for Vodas bastard son of a thousand maniacs ROM (Voda wm6.5) to be up on their site before i can have winmo 6.5 on my device and has anyone seen if its that God horrible red n white which i just cant stand.
im using manila 2.1 atm yto cover it up and have been pleased how it got rid of the Voda rubbish.
again apologies if ive asked some thing answered and thanks in advance for any help.
i am a toatl noob to "flashing" etc so any advice would be awesome.
id also like to give shouts out to all developers for keeping us all up to date and connected.
you guys are the unsung heros of win mo so please keep up the good work as im sure we all would agree, its greatly appreciated

Mate...you should do some reading at those sticky threads...
No one will answer those questions.
if u cant wait ur official 6.5 rom come out. Just do the hardspl and flash using 6.5 europe official rom. do more reading please. thanks.
I have a Vodafone TP2 too, and don't have any vodafone software on it anymore. All you need to do is flash with HSPL, then you can install any ROM you like from this forum, but seriously read the stickies. This one specifically:

hi there people, dont hate me and apologies if this question either seems ignorant or whether its been answered before.
so here goes...
ive got a branded vodafone tp2, its sim unlocked so im using a Tmob UK sim inside and loving every minute, awesome fone.
now i can see there's a buzz about getting wm6.5 official ROM onto my device so im wondering a few things.
I went to the HTC web site and tried to download the official ROM but it mentioned it wasnt suitable for my device, ill put that down to it being branded/raped by Voda..?
what im wondering also is, if i could get the official unbranded wm6.5 ROM onto my unit (my mate has just upgraded his from HTC as it was unbranded at POS so will try n get him to upload onto my unit)would it work?
ill have to admit ive been a fan sice getting my first HTC fone (the Universal) years ago but have now realised that if u want a decent experience to next time go unbranded.

Like others are saying, you just need to HSPL your phone and flash the hell outta it After the flash, you will have your new 6.5 ROM, without voda crap Good luck!
Ok.. If you are new to the flashing world... you must first understand a few things. A bit of reading around would definitely help you understand better.
- First you would have to Hard SPL your device. You can find our how to do that from this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550131. At the end of the 1st post you would have to download this file: Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3_185HSPL.zip
Once you do that, you are all set for the world of fantasy... Screw the official release of WM 6.5 release.. you have better than official release here at XDA. You can try the latest WM 6.5 and 6.5.1 ROMs cooked with Mannila Sense 2.1 and 2.5
So, Flash away dude... and Good luck.
The voda update is here : http://devicehelp.vodafone.co.uk/firmwaredevice.php?ModelID=384&e=0
As stated before, please use the stickies and the wiki for reference before starting a new thread.
All the answers are there somewhere .
Thanks
