Good job @bestever! This has been your first useful contribution to the forum. Keep up the good work!

thanks =D
about when will this come out for htc tornado

I wonder if Tornado would still be used as test device for new OS, the reason we have WM6 for our devices is because some internal WM6 tester for Tornado leaked the ROM for us, and Phil removed the ID, and others continued to improve it.
I wonder if WM6.1 is based on the same OS Kernel as WM6, then perhaps it's just the matter of porting certain files

I think WM6.1 is based on the same OS kernel as WM6.
CHOME will be standard, which is what the T-Mobile Shadow's Neo UI uses, and I think also what the cardwheel on Samsung SGH-i600 uses as well.
The CHOME stuff will take up a lot of storage so WM6.1 might fit in a Tornado, but just barely. I tried to port the Shadow ROM with CHOME completely intact, but ran out of space so I gave it up.

Does this Rom for PocketPC?
For cooking WM6.1 to Tornado we must have WM6.1 standart Rom.

looks amazing...

Finally a REAL update to the OS! instead of using loads of external apps!

Windows Mobile 6 Review

Can somebody explain it to me what is the difference between Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 6.1 on HTC Wizard device?
Is WM5 more stable than WM6?
Is WM5 faster than WM6?
What is the advance of using WM6 instead of WM5 on HTC Wizard?

Just give it a try in my opinion i can say that WM6.1 is much faster and stable than WM5. Also changing to WM6.1 solved many bugs for me which i had in WM5 ROM. Like WiFi connection problems, GPS module Nokia LD-3W connection problems with GPS navigation software etc... if i could compare it to something similar it is like to change from Windows 98 to Windows XP

Outstanding! So, You recommend me to use WM6, a? I will, is flashing procedure very complicated?

Like he said, the difference between 5.0 and 6.1 is immense. 6.1 boots faster, runs faster, doesnt require as much memory for programs, looks nicer, shoot...its just all around better.
The flashing process is not that hard, you just need to read, read,read the guides here for your particular phone, whether it is a G3 or a G4, and away you go! Ask here if you need any more help!
Treestsyat!

I just get my new Wizard, but it is G4 device
I just did CID unlock (HardSPL), and now choosing adequate WM6 ROM which I can use. I plan to put Slim Diamond 4, what do You think about it? Should be better than default O2 WM5 ROM, G4 safe, but we will see. I do not like TouchFLO It just disturbing me while I am using my XDA...

TRY
All of we Try lots of roms touchflo fre and enhanced... but it s a vicious thing hahahaha, jajaja just let your boring WM5 wizard revive with WM6.1!!!!!
I reflash my wizard G3 almost 3 times at month just to try some new features...

Faria HTC Wizard ROM - Extremely Slow!

Hi guys,
I've flashed my i-mate KJam with Faria HTC Wizard ROM (here). Everything works perfect unless my wizard is extremely slow! I've to wait 10 seconds (or more) for start menu, apps, etc to run.
I've played with PagePool (using Wizard Service Tool) but even on 12MB it is still slow.
Is there any solution somewhere?
Thanks.

Well, one of the main reasons that your Wizard is so slow, is that the Faria ROM is over 2 years old! Try flashing to a new WinMo 6.1 ROM, they are MUCH faster than the old 6.0 ones.

But this one is the only "clean" rom I've found as there is no any extra software embedded into it.
I wish I knew how to replace SYS and XIP in this ROM with a new one and get it worked.

try few Vanilla Rom here, they are very *clean*

Touch HD custom rom upgrade problem

Hi,
I hope someone can help me with this issue.
I have a HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) which is from Orange UK. It is running WM 6.1 1.19.61.1.
I have been attempting to flash the rom to a version of WM 6.5.
I have run the hardspl upgrade, then have tried to flash with a number of WM 6.5 (2 from Dutty, 1 from MIRI, and a few others).
The problems I get with ANY version of WM 6.5 are as follows:-
Firstly when it starts booting it has a graphics issue, it looks like the vga driver is not installed, but if you press the power button twice the vga looks ok!
Then when it has loaded WM 6.5 and Touchflo 3D it freezes quite a lot.
Also the phone cannot connect to any mobile network such as Orange UK, when you try to turn the phone radio on it does nothing! WIFI and BT etc work fine!
Also it randomly restarts!
When I flash the rom back to WM 6.1 1.19.61.1 the phone works perfectly again!
Is it not possible to flash my phone? Or can anyone advise me on a wm 6.5 rom that will work!
Any advise would be greatfully received.
Thanks

Problem fixed
If anyone is interested I have got to the bottom of my problems with installing a cooked rom.
I followed a tutorial on flashing the blackstone on youtube which stated I should first install hardspl v1.14, well it seems this video was a bit out of date as when I read the notes on this site it stated I should first install hard spl 1.56 for cooked roms!
I did this and now my upgrades are working fine .
I now have wm 6.5 running ok on my blackstone.

For future reference, our friend Digital Outcast did a fantastic thread here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
It is a sticky on the blackstone forum and easily found, a quick look would have found this, but well done for finding your own way and getting it done

HTC Blackstone HardSPL problem
Hey guys !! I have a problem with my Touch HD!
I'm trying to flash it from WM 6.1 to WM 6.5.
When i start the HardSPL after 10 seconds the phone disconnects from my PC.
i tried a lot of times but does the same all the time.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Which one please guys?

About custom ROM of course. OK I know the first reaction to such question is that the question is stupid and "find out yourself" and such.
But I don't even have the device (I have HD2 and Touch Pro), I want to upgrade a colleague's Polaris because WM5 and our new Exchange 2010 don't fit very well.
So I don't have the time, our "prerequisites" are simple:
- WM6.1 and up.
- Manila (of any version) welcome.
- Stable and light.
Anybody can help?

If you are looking for WM6.1 then I recommend ROM in my signature. It comes without Manila. There is also a full flavor of this ROM with manila

thanks noted
unless someone comes with a nice 6.5 one (I already use 6.5.5 on my own devices)

use pcar's roms good stable and fast... also wm5? i swear this phone never came with that?!?!

what do you mean?
I am not looking at WM5 ROMs.

good rom => Pcarvallo's roms
WM5? I will explain. The touch cruise shipped with 6.0 upped to 6.1 then cooked to 6.5/6.5.x.
That was my point nothing really about it. Most likely a typo by you...

3LIT3 VIII Naked is probably the best choise. Everything what I tried worked without problem and soft-resets I did only extraordinarily.

Kostas' A- version is a stable WM6.5 rom, everything works very well.
Just try it out, you can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554071

thanks guys

3LIT3 VIII for 6.1, without doubt.
megan rom for 6.5. full stop.
