Hello,
I hope not to be too much of a nuisance, but I couldn't find any reference anywhere to "proper" WM upgrade from 6.1 to 6.5.
I am currently running a 6.1 Italian version, and while I saw many homebrew roms, I couldn't find anywhere any reference to the basic, no frills but working 6.5 ROM.
Can anybody point me (in private, if needed) to the right source please?
Thank you in advance!

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 vertex,
i would suggest you take a look at the following link before choosing a ROM as it lists different builds and explains what each one offers:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=569715
If you want something close to your stock 6.5 version, then you may want to consider Miri's or Dutty's ROMs (although Dutty has now stopped developing ROMs for the Touch HD i believe) if you want more of a customized version. For more information, check this link for a list of Miri's, Dutty's, and other cooks ROMs:
http://htcpedia.com/soft/htc-blackstone-rom.html
Else if you want some raw performance boost, choose Topix ROM especially the vanilla ones.
Fact is, choosing the best ROM is a matter of preferences. Taste of yours may vary from thousand others with the same device. Hence, before choosing a custom cooked ROM, forget the positive reviews people give on the ROM and instead, test them yourself personally. Probably have each of the ROM running in your device for atleast one day to analyze which one performs better and finally choose the best one for your taste.
But I’m pretty sure by the time you find the best ROM, a new cooked ROM emerges, hence the testing continues. You get addicted
I am also looking for a 6.5 rom , but a "naked" one
No Manilla, no apps, just the wm 6.5 as small and as fast as possible.
I downloaded the Miri WM 6.5 21885 :: Premium without Manila :: V 33.0 for testing
If anyone else knows any other rom that fits my requirements,please tell me!

There is no official WM 6.5 for the Kaiser, nor will there be.
The only available WM 6.5 roms are custom roms listed in the Kaiser rom dev. forum.
Hi there!
I was just offered a Trinity, so I came here looking for information on how to update it. I already read a lot of things and managed to install the latest Radio and tried some custom ROMs, no problems whatsoever.
However, I still have some questions I can't find answers for:
1 - Why use a custom ROM? Isn't it possible to use the original WM and then install only what you want?
2 - If it is, where can I find a ROM with the original WM6.1 and 6.5?
3 - If not, what is the least modified ROM I can get with 6.1 and 6.5? Or at least some ROM with only the basics.
4 - Is TouchFlo the same as Manilla? I've seen both words but I don't know the differences.
Thanks in advance!

1. Flashing Custom ROM is faster then installing a whole package like with manila2d.
2. No, trinity only ship with original 6.0 ROM.
3. If you want 6.1 ot 6.5, flash an Ultralite ROM or cook your own. For p3600i 6.1 - try this
p3600i 6.5 try this
If you have the original p3600. Check the Trinity Upgrade Article in the wiki. Remember Lite ROM.
4.TouchFLO is the original that is shipped with the Elf/in
Kaiser etc... Manila is TouchFLO3D and it is bundled with the Diamond and Pro. And Manila2D a slimmed version of TF3D that is used in the Viva and 3G and can be installed in most WM phones.

SE never provided/released such a rom for the X1, the answer is therefore: nowhere, it does not exist
original ones are all 6.1 (you can find them here, the 6.5 releases are ported by chefs
best
ok. but where can i download the standard version 6.5 without modifikation. (without sms lag). thx
well, there is also nothing like a standard version of wm6.5 as the porting automatically implies customization
checking for thread titles containing 6.5 and light, clean, pure,... should at least provide you one with minimal customization
what sms lag are you referring too?
ok. thanks for quick answer and for the link. i download me the original windows 6.1. all windows with modifications maked me crazy (lags and bugs)
That's exactly why I have always used stock (original) roms. They simply work. And you can cusomize those so they are almost as finger friendly as WM 6.5. But I know that discussing stock and custom rom can almost be as critical as discussing religion.
