Downgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1 from 6.5 - Touch Viva, MDA Basic General

I just flashed WinMo 6.5 to my opal, but it has lots of bugs. Is there a way I can reflash WinMo 6.1 to my opal? The 6.5 version that I flashed is this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606750. Thanks for any help, and also for reading this.

Just realized that I asked kinda a silly question. WinMo 6.5 is buggy, full of useless (according to me) stuff and very heavy (not lite). I've found the links to WinMo 6.1 but damn Rapidshare.

Was it that bad? Maybe you chose an old ROM. Anyway I guess I'll stick for a while like you with the original 6.1 till we get a stable 6.5 release

6.5 is not stable and lite
I agree guys, i have tried 3 versions of 6.5 ROMs cooked by different moderators of this site but all of them have some bugs, the battery life is reduced to 5 hours only. I am need of an original Viva 6.1 pro ROM, please help.... Right now i am having 6.1 ROM but that too has some bugs.... Thanx for any help in advance.... Till then, we have to wait for a Stable 6.5 pro ROM.....

You can get it. I find it a bit too buggy atm so I'm staying with 6.1 for the time being.
Some of the newest ROMs coming out right now are incredibly stable for beta software. At this point they are stable enough for me to run days without running into any glitches or problems. No more so problems than the current stock 6.1 roms available. If you're feeling adventurous give one a shot. worst case scenario you can always flash back to your stock rom. Just be careful if you're not familiar with custom rom flashing, it's easy to do but just make sure you read up on it thoroughly to avoid any headaches. Good luck and enjoy 6.5, I love it on my diamond.

Latest 6.1 !!!

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
- OEM from Topaz 1.40 WWE rom
- CE OS 5.2.21054 (Build 21054.1.6.7)
- Riphone 1.14
- Manila 2.1 CFC edition - THANKS Chainfire
- Ati and openvg drivers
- .NET Framework 3.5

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

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..

windows mobile 6.5 for X1

i'm new here
any orignal win 6.5 for x1???
i sow a lot off cook wind but didnt see any original
welcome velemajstore
there is no original WM6.5 for X1
If you want original non-cooked WM6.5 then is X2 best solution for you. Or other HTC phone which has official WM6.5
I tried almost all of WM6.5 roms with HTC Sense and all of them is so slow compared to WM6.1
voodoons is right: there is no official 6.5 update for X1, and none planned. However, there are some excellent unofficial 6.5 ROMs that are worth a go, if you are prepared to take the (small) risk of corrupting your phone!
Of particular merit are:
826X-peria ROM - these are my favourite.
Xperia UnOff Series - try either Infinite or 1.5 if you want a ROM closest to the official ROM.
gtrab's SEX1 R3 is getting on for a year old now, so it contains older builds of Windows Mobile, but it is a well-renowned ROM.
Hope that little summary helps. I recommend you have a go, as I have got such a better phone now, thanks to the efforts of these fine chefs!

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.

[Q] how to upgrade 6.1 to 6.5

Sir i need to upgrade windows 6.1 to windows 6.5 on my htc touch diamond
i am soo confused as this is my first time using any windws phone
please helpp
my rom version is 2.03.405.3 wwe
radio version is 1.09.25.23
please help me how can i get windows 6.5 and how can i install it
please
i ll be extremly obliged
There are plenty of 6.5 ROMs available on the site. Be warned that most will slow your phone down and reduce stability compared to the (admittedly buggy) ROM that the Diamond comes with. It's fun to try them out though, if you have the time and patience! Many people have worked very hard to create ROMs with various features from 6.5, so just take your time and read through them.
You also should hunt out the guide on how to use Hard SPL, as you will need it for the Diamond to allow you to use the ROM of your choice.
