Let's be honest! - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading

I've seen many posts on wm6 and crossbow and I've seen that all or many links are removed by the administrator(s) e.g. Jesterz, but let's be honest. If you remove all these links and try to shutdown all wm6 post, then I only can advise you to remove the wm6 stuff in your signature! It's a kind of hypocritical!

Wiki page updated - fast start with WM5 on Himalaya

Hello all!
Crossbow is near, so i think we can sum up WM5 on Himalaya.
I've updates WIKI page about WM5 on Himalaya, it's here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Himalaya_2005_Kitchen
Purpose of this page is to quickly find out what options are if you want to install WM5 on Himalaya.
Feel free to edit/add or correct this text.
If you feel I missed some important (stable,fast etc) ROMs please write here or update WIKI yourself
There is also Wiki page for WM6,
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Himalaya_2006
but there is nothing for now. I will try to put there information if any will be available
Thanks for the effort
do u think cross bow is really near?
wht about the ftp? is it ok now ? (files restored?)
I hope
about FTP, I restored OEM packages only, I don't have other files

Just a little sugestion >>

hello there!
i am new (4months) to this forum and i have some questions.
i red the wiki. but still some things are very unclear.
but my biggest problem si that i can't figure out how many versions of WM6 are there. all i count is:
1. Midget_1990 v.1.0
2. Universal WM6 Pro ROM
3. Jwrightmcps ROM update 2.02.02
4. Jwrightmcps ROM Update 2.02.00 WEE
5. WM6 CHT/.../DUT with Radio 1.15.00 from Darkforce
are there any others ???
i appriciate all the users that took part of those releases, i realy do appriciate their work, but i think this forum is a little bit unorganised.
wouldn't it be better to name all the WM6 versions in the same way like:
1. [WM6] [Midget_1990] [1.0]
2. [WM6] [Jwrightmcps] [2.02.02]
3. [WM6] [Jwrightmcps] [2.02.00]
etc.....
or something like this, somename that includes the version, the build number, the os number, and put them sepparatly on the top of the forum (sticky).
and i would suggest to keep modifying the first reply from the topic. the one that includes the description of the version and to add all the things that are discovered by users.
sometimes it takes 20 pages to get and to read a reply that says something that really matters to you. the rest is just "thank you" replies.
for example, if you want to use an certain program you might spend a few days reading the topic and find out that you shouldn't have upgraded your device because u cannot run the program.
i personally don't understand what is "Universal WM6 Professional ROM".
from the name of the thread, it is not verry relevant who build it.
and also why is this one "professional"? i would call "professional" the WM6 release from an official source like HTC.
i don't want to offend anyone with this topic.
i just struggle to understand for 2 weeks what is going on with al these versions.
and i hopped that at some point, someone will make a conclusion about evry WM6 version, something like:
"version no.1 crashes evry 20min, etc...
version no.2 doesn't have videocall, msn chat, office, etc...
version no.3 is the best of all but still hasn't got a videocall function. this can be fixed with the cab provided in the topic (link), etc..."
again, i hope noone is offended by my post.
i trully appriciate all your work, but i just think that it needs to be just a little bit organised. all that hard work and sleepless nights of the authors, need to be a little more easy to read.
thanks in advanced for your time and your understanding!

wm6 professional ala wm5 pocket pc
wm6 standard ala wm5 smartphone
this is the new naming convention used by M$
there is PDAVIET rom, helmis rom leo's rom and probably rom released by couple of other people
i guess the reason why you see different nomenclature used for the rom is because all rom makers usually work independently.(though i really like your idea)
as for some app being incompatible with one given rom... well i guess i have seen some people claiming that a particular rom broke an application while some one else will say that it works...and frankly speaking the rom makers can not update their bug log just because one guy claims so...

The link is concering the discussion on the what you called professional rom, the do or don't release of HTC wm6 build for the Universal and the hesitating behaviour of many rebranders.
it`ll get easier
The forum is diverse, this is a good thing, just a little confusing at first.
Also, as i understand it, english isn`t always the first language of all it`s members.(but all who post,post in english, for which i am profoundly grateful )
Goodluck neighbour....
I Agree with HewLit...
ordering them with tags like
[OS][author][version] would make it way easier to find new releases...

A list of Wizard cabs

hey all i saw someone had a list of wizard programs it was really long,.. i been searching and can not find it... can someone give me a hand,., also can anyone show me where to get some games.. thanks
I've not had any feedback from the other mods on this, but I think this is a great idea and one started by Sandrobber. Please send me a PM if you are interested in getting a wiki page started for Wizard specific cabs. (That means you will be writing the page.)
a post liekthis already exsist i am trying to find it
Why don't you guys use GOOGLE? There's not such thing as wizard cabs... just wm5 cabs or wm6 cabs... try searching for pocket pc freeware
Some cabs are Wizard specific, such as tweaks. It's not always as easy as Google-ing.
Go to wizardupgrading forum and there you will find the list of wiard software the thread is sticky started by texasaggie.

is this the thread that's being referred to? has a lot of good links and files for programs on the wizard...but dunno how many of these are compatible on wm6. most were mentioned back when we were all using wm5.

WM5 Forum Section

OK, It would be great to get a place where I can look through the WM5 cabs that we have available here. I keep searching and end up having to try 4 different version of HTC Home plugin before getting the WM5 one, or having to install remove HARD Reset other HTC apps or different themes. If we had a WM5 section I think it would be great. I would be happy to post all the Apps that I found to work on WM5 so far. As well as a few the had me HARD Reset ...
Well That is just an Idea. I know many people have moved to WM6 but WM6 slows an older phone down (Cingular 8125) from what I have read.
Best Regards,
SoBBie
you can post all your wm5 programs over here.

spl 4.21 and wm6.1 aku1 (5.2.2000) download?

hi, ive seen a spl 4.21 and wm 6.1 aku 1 listed on a few sites (for example: http://www.wm-gurus.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=861) and am curious if anyone here has heard anything about any roms in development or possible locations to download the new spl or wm 6.1aku1..
well, 316 views and not one comment? can anyone provide any information, please?
If I could see the post, I'd look at it and maybe even reply. But I can't see it. The registration process is taking some odd ammount of time.
Sorry. don't know what I'm looking for here.
5.2.2000 is a fake build.
But 5.2.19199 is a real wm6.1 aku1 - build.
sry, i found that posting after i signed up, didnt realize that u couldnt see it without registering
but anyway the post talks about a russian site that has a russian rom of wm6.1 aku1 here:http://3ppc.net/forum/showthread.php?t=4572 he has about 3 other versions of that rom and if u look at his spl at the bottom its the 4.21. also i noticed hes runing this rom:http://www.3ppc.net/forum/showthread.php?t=5450&page=5 which says directly at the top wm6.1 aku 1
Now any buddy up for porting it over to our language?
well i discovered that if u click on his spl at the bottom you can get to a download page for the 4.21 spl, but u need to register and it asks u a no spam question that it wants you to answer but when i run it thru a translater i get: During the winter and summer of one color ...? (too bad i cant read the original russian) if anyone can read russian and sign up for that site (or tell me what the answer is) to get the spl and rom and post it here that would be realy great

I can't register without a russian keyboard. in fact my comp isn't even set up for russian. Otherwise I would download it from my comrades.
however: I don't trust that it is a safe version.. or at least a real one.
here is my recomendation: install russian language on your pc, and use the onscreen keyboard to type in the info they are asking for. Using two pages (one translated by google) you should be able to figure out what is said, while still tupe the info with Cyrylic character set
