I was looking for the update to windows mobile 6.1, and I see that microsoft has one available, but you have to have vista. I only have xp, so I need some help upgrading.
Also, I looked through all the phones on this forum, and I can't find the Tmobile wing anywhere. I see my phone is also known as the HTC Atlas, but I can't find it here either....Help!
Its in the Herald Sub Forum. There are many roms sporting WM6.1 in there too.

Is this site/forum only for SIM type devices or is it for Pocket PC type devices in general. I have a Samsung SCH-i730 and am interested in the possiblity of upgrading it to Windows Mobile 6 and am looking for input. Please let me know. Thanks!
I'm wondering about this myself.
I have an SCH-i730 as well that I'd love to see WM6 on.
I also have an Axim X5 that would like some WM6 lovin'.
Anyone heard anything new on this one? WM5 sucks on my i730 and I want to move to WM6.

Ok so how do we upgrade the i730 to WM6?
WM6 please
Man I so wish someone would be able to figure out how to use one of the cdma kitchens to isolate the i730 drivers to use towards getting WM6 on the i730!
Hi, I am new here and to windows mobile. I just purchased a HTC Tornado and I am looking for a thread that tells me how to upgrade it from WM5 to WM6. The problem is, when I search for HTC Tornado all the threads show a different Tornado phone then what I have. I have the HTC Tornado from Tmobile. Would I upgrade it the same way you upgrade the Tornado I keep seeing in this section?? Do I have a older model or something? Any help would be greatly appreciated! I attached a picture of the Torando that I have.
Thanks
You have a regular Tornado, simply the music edition. It's identical to mine and you can use without problem any of the WM6 that are available here
The insides are the same as the tornado, T-Mobile just puts their case on it. Many companies do the same.
I have the exact same version. Also called SP5m for the music edition. Be *very* careful to burn only those ROMS made for the Tornado. HTC Faraday for example looks very similar and many people have "bricked" their phone (made it totally useless) by installing that ROM.
Good luck.
Thanks for the help guys.. Anyone know where I can view a help section for newbs? I take it ROMS are programs?? And when you say my Tornado is the music edition, the other tornado can't play music? Can I update from WM5 right to WM6?
Thanks
It is the same HTC Tornado as any other. It has the exact same specs and features. The only differenece is the case. You can use any ROM for HTC Tornado.
other tornado don't have special buttons(play, next, previous), but they play music just the same as your SP5m does. ROMs are programs to upgrade your OS(operating system), it's like changing the PC OS from XP to Vista having a special software to help you do that more easily, there is no forum/section for newbs, as an advice, read all FAQs and other instructions here in Tornado section, and when you think you are ready - upgrade you WM5 to WM6, but if you aren't sure in smth better ask here before you make a step in nowhere..
good luck
Is there any big advantages to upgrade WM5 to WM6? Hard to do for a newb?
WM6 is lot better than WM5. I like it lot more. And it is not hard to upgrade to WM6. Basically you just need to superCID your phone, format BINFS and run the ROM Update Utility. Read this for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324557
Thanks for the help. My phone should be here anyday now. Can't wait to mess around with it Is there anywhere anyone knows of where I can get newbie info on all the terms such as SuperCID, BINFS etc..
try the wiki. Look at the links at the top of the forums.
I was wondering, which edition of Windows Mobile could i use for this phone:TV966
I know, you will probably say this phone doesn't support Windows Mobile, but i contacted the supplier and he told me that the phone itself isn't loaded with Windows Mobile, but it can and does support it. Which version could i use for this phone?
I hope this is the right forum for the question. Thanks in advance!
Since this phone has a touch screen WM pro will be the version to use.
On how to put it on this phone, the easy way would be... Who am i kidding, there is no easy way to put WM on this, unless you port WM from scratch to this
So it isn't possible to load this phone with WM?
As this is an HTC ONLY FORUM I don´t believe you´ll find too much info for your device
Anyway good luck,

Is it Possible - Yes, provided Eten release a WM 6.5 Rom Upgrade or Some Enterprising Soul makes a WM 6.5 Rom

Hi!
I'm wondering if there's a way to get Windows Mobile 6.5. Does anyone know it?
Thanks
This forum is mostly for HTC devices (some Palm, some Sony). Pretty sure there are other forums for Omnia, just google for it.
the sony and palm are still build my htc for those 2 companys though
Hello,
I have looked around a little but cannot find definitive conformation that my O2 XDA Orbit 2 running WM6.1 can upgrade to WM6.5.
Can anyone please confirm either way please?
You haven't looked in the ROM Development or used the search there's about 15 different wm6.5 roms.If you mean official update no you can't.
