Not sure why you would ever want to go back to WINMO. I love NRGZ ROM. I am more than willing to put up with any minor issues and update the ROM when a new release comes out. You can keep WINMO, I want nothing to do with it.
Just my 2cents.
If WM6.5 is how you want to theme your android then go for it. I think your screen shot looks pretty good. You could work on the dock to be a bit closer to winmo (IMO). Don't worry about what others say. This is why you run Android. If you really wanted to be told what your phone should look like you would have an iClone.

It would be nice, I think that you should integrate a kind of cookie home tab interface ( i fyou know how to do ), try to put just 3 big icon on the center line !!

Wasn't ugly, just couldn't customise it as much as Android. If he wants a Winmo look and feel, let him continue. The whole idea of Android is, you can do pretty much what you want, and make it look like what ever you want.
When you say Windows Mobile you mean this or this? may be this?
Kind regards Android's friends
i like the look of it
Windows Mobile went forgotten

If your on linux just run dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/place/you/want/it
then to restore just switch if and of. That's what I do. Might work on a Mac too. On windows.. get a Linux live CD and do that?

7 annoys me. It's too user friendly and all the controls are hidden behind wizards.
I'm thinking of buying a new computer but since it's been 6 years without a wipe I'm sure this one can run faster.
But that is not the point of this thread.

To answer the OP there are several products for creating a Disk Image. Acronis make a good one:
http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/
Vista/Windows 7 have built in imaging capability but as you're on XP you'll have to pay for something. If you're doing a fresh install though, i don't see the benefit of imaging your drive as it is now. It would make sense to do it after you've reinstalled and re-configured your OS so that you have a clean image to go back to in future. What can you do with an image of an old, tired install?
Perhaps you'd just be better off just backing up all of your important data onto a spare drive and forgetting about the image?
Good. Then the noobs will change settings less.

Honestly I would just run a quick google search (recovery disk/iso for model#) if you can't find any free or cheap available for your model then I would stick to the recovery software option.. there's too many to count but you can usually find free trials for these recovery tools. If not, send me a PM.

Thanks for that. At recommendations from several sources it looks like DriveImageXML is the best place to start.
On a separate note I'm thinking going Linux. From what I've read it sounds like it's community built and supported, much like CM. If that's the case I'm sure I'll love it.

This might be a crazy question, but would it be possible to develop a windows phone rom for the inc-s since theyve already done it for the hd2?
Or get miui rom and then apply the windows phone theme. That's your best bet.

It's the best variant, coz there's no way we will get wp7
Why'd you want to spoil a perfectly good phone by trying to install a crappy OS into it. I suppose It's like taking a BMW z3 and fitting a Citroen 2cv engine into it. Can be done but the result would be laughable.

All I got from that is you want people to know you like cars and your trolling wp7
Yes it is possible, however it would have to be built from the ground up and there is definitely not enough dev support on this phone model to bring wp7 to life.

Depends entirely on what your experience is. There's a big difference between learning to cook having never cooked a thing in your life, and learning to cook French cuisine if you're already a master sushi chef.
I'll play it safe and say I've never cooked a thing in my life, but my dad is also a system engineer and could help if I needed it. I'd rather learn without his help.

Start with an RUU. Run the RUU on your PC. Stop at the first screen after it's done loading, don't proceed, but don't close the window. Start/Run and type %TEMP% and hit enter (this will take you to your user temp folder). Sort the folders by date and open the newest. Here you should find Rom.zip. Use this as your base ROM in the kitchen. Root it, deodex it (or not), zipalign it, etc - and you end up with a flashable ROM from an RUU
Any one using one of the vanilla ROMs? Went from a gnex to the one and kinda miss vanilla android a little. Love being able to switch as and when but wondered if any one is using a vanilla ROM and if its stable etc.
