Hi everyone.
I am not really a hardcore HTC Diamond user as I just use it for the basic such as texting and calling so I was wondering is there anyway I can upgrade to WM 6.5 from 6.1 which is what I am running at the moment with a custom Gen Y ROM.
I dont use TF3D as it feel it's to in your face just like to keep it simple with simple WM running.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Can I do this via upgrading the actual OS or what?
Many thanks.
First of all you have Hard-SPL?
If yes download any rom you want and flash it same like wm6.1 rom
Ok so I can download the Windows 6.5 Revolution Titanium edition A and flash it using RUU and it would be upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.5?
EDIT: Yes I already have Hard SPL installed and a custom ROM.
Mark.
yes it would be

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).

Hi!
I really like the windows mobile 6.5 today screen and the start menu and i want them to run on my 6.1... I know that i can use hard-spl and then install a pure 6.5 rom, but i don't want to mess with my warranty, considering i have 2 years left. So i wonder if there is some application or anything that makes it possible for me to get these functions on my 6.1...
ps... i just installed the x2 panel manager on my 6.1 and with it came the original x2 panels, execpt the today screen... And i saw on pictures that a x1 windows mobile 6.1 ran the windows mobile 6.5 today screen, so it's possible... It's only a matter of finding the files Here's the link btw:http://www.xperiax1.net/forum/developers-downloads/5393-x2-goodies-tilewave-panel-experiment-13-game-new-panel-manager-more.html
Best regards//

anybody?? plz
What you are asking is impossible. If you want 6.5 style start menu you must flash a 6.5 ROM. There are a bunch of built-in dependencies.
If you want an HTC start menu (Which is a very pretty alternative for 6.1 then flash a TF3D (Manila) based 6.1 ROM.
As far as I know there is no cabbed solution for what you are asking. Sorry. Read up on flashing, Hard-SPL, and restoring Soft SPL, and you can safely switch to custom ROMS and revert back to stock if you need to send it in for warranty work. If you do this please read and understand the instructions in the Wiki and/or the Stickies before you attempt.
Good Luck and happy flashing!
you can't change the wm shell without changing to a wm6.5 rom
but maybe you can use http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products/pocketpc/WisBarAdvanceDesktop/
and find a skin which looks kinda like wm6.5
but mind you desktop advanced will be running on top of wm6 and would slow the device down a bit
Okey, i thought it was possible considering that gtrab converted and made it possible for us to use the xperia x2 panel manager and all the other panels...
But i guess i was wrong, thanks for your help. Much appriciated

All you need to do is download your shipped rom and run the exe once you are synced with your pc.
Look here:

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!

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.
