It sounds like people are generally getting a pretty major performance increase from some of these cooked ROMs. Especially Dutty's WM 6.1. I think I'm about ready to give it a shot. I want to make sure I flash the right ROM though. So I have a few questions before I do this.
1) Im assuming most of my CAB files will work in WM 6.1; (Egress 3.4.0, Good FTP 1.0, Live Search 3.0, Opera 9.5 beta, Mortplayer 3.31, Resco Explorer 2008 beta, wmTorrent 2.1.6, IM+ v3.4.1, SPB Mobile Shell 2.0, Pocket Scrobbler 1.5, TCPMP 0.72RC1) Any known issues with any of these programs on Duttys WM 6.1?
2) I read somewhere on this forum that the "lite" version removes Duttys_AdobeFlashLite_3. Is this correct? I thought the newest version for WM was FlashLite 2.1. If version 3 is available, could someone post the CAB?
3) I'm unfamiliar with various Radios. If I run WM 6.1 on an ATT Tilt in the USA, what radios can I use?
4) Aside from Duttys WM 6.1, are there any other ROMs I should consider?
5) If things go wrong...can someone post the original ATT ROM?

All of these answers are in the Wiki or FAQ I suggest you read them thoroughly before flashing. Check out the links in my signature.

Is there anyway to pull IE from WM6.1 standard (smartphone) to run on a WM6 or WM5 standard device? Similar to how ppl have pulled office 6.1 to run on wm5?
Thanks
So you are asking for the smartphone version for your professional device, correct?
No. I have a WM 6 standard device.
WM 6.1 standard is already out, and it has a newer version of IE mobile.
Is it possible to get the IE from WM 6.1 standard to run on WM 6 standard (or even WM 5 standard/smartphone).
We're all in standard/smartphone version right now.
I assume something similar can be done for the pro/touch screen devices as well, but I'm not asking about that.
Thanks
PS. I'm well aware that other browsers exist, such as opera. I'm specifically curious about getting the latest IE on older devices, similar to how we can run new mobile office apps on older devices.
Hi,
I have found this cab one : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=H67GUDE0
source : http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/ph...aster-zoom-options-cab-file-7.html#post170439
I'm new to this forum and to flashing the ROM on my Wizard. This is a fantastic forum with a wealth of contributions, though it is rather daunting for the newcomer.
I have experimented with a couple of WM6.5 builds (RC4 and newer Beta), a 6.1 build, and the original 5.0. I find WM6.5 to be rather unusable. WiFi doesn't work well, TouchNFlo is intermittent, and everything is dog slow. 6.1 seems a nice upgrade to 5.0.
Are others having a similar experience with 6.5? Is it too much for this 3 year old device? I'm not sure what the advantages are, other than personal taste for user interface.
Another question (and excuse me for perhaps not doing a better search)--if I find a build I like, but want more than the "clean" version, can I easily add the missing pieces, such as Manila 2D?
Thanks everyone!
Hi! Glad you joined! With regards to your question....WM6.5 officially released on October the 18th so until then all of the WM6.5 builds were based on betas and RCs which usually have bugs and what not which usually end up being slow anyways...there are several 6.5 builds based of of the final/ release version which run fairly quick . WM6.1 has been out for a while now and is the best go between for WM5 and 6.5 as of right now and its highly recommended by me! Im not telling you to (because you should research and pick one on your own!) but i used X2Hs NSN WM6.1 with Manila 2D and it was blazing fast so you should look into that!Cheers!
Maybe try to overclock your wizard? I got H3r's WM 6.5 rom on my wizard. Overclocked to 260 Mhz, about 29-30 MB of free ram after reboot. It works better than some 6.1 roms i tested.
I installed X2H's new "iphone killer" WinMo 6.5 ROM and its BLAZING FAST even without overclocking.... i highly suggest you look into that!!!!!

in fact there are some cabs to add m2d (4 ex) htc home, etx.
and yes im using the iphone killer (wm6.5 based) and is really fast, no need to overclock (i think is no worth to overclock since the wizard work flawless with iphone killer and some others i have tried be4)
but 6.5 have a flexible interface so you wont miss the m2d (i prefer the htc home) but 6.5 is very nice..... and of course if you go to spb shell page there you can download very nice demos and get the best.good looking-funcional interface.
good luck!
p.s. send pm if you want more tips

Over / under clocking iphone killer rom
Hi there, how can you use dynamic over/under clocking with the iphone killer rom?
Download Homescreen++ and deactivate the Windows Standart Desktop Interface an select Homescreen++
*Notice*
I am done cooking roms for windows mobile, as I will be moving on to Windows Phone 7. I am sorry windows mobile users, but I believe windows mobile is a dead platform.
However, I will do a few more for those who PM me.
I will post ROMs if anyone is interested. I'll cook for any bootloader but right now I'm only cooking for Verizon & Sprint devices. I can cook packed or clean 21874 ROMs (including Manila 2D if anyone wants) and clean 28002 ROMs. (Packed 28002 ROMs had an issue with the SD card.) Please reply back to request a ROM.
ROM: 28004 Verizon Bootloader 1.04
Includes:
Word
Excel
Powerpoint
File Explorer Extension
Solitaire
HTC Camera
Chris Blue Keyboard Skin
Manila 2D with BlueIcon skin by JCKOTZE
.NET CF 3.5
SDHC Card Support
FingerKeyboard 2.1 with BlackRed and BlackBlue skins
Includes RUU
Please use at your own risk! I am not responsible for any damage done to your phone.

Manila 2D you use what version?
TouchFLO 1.0 (Build 1818.3719)
Newer versions cannot be included in rom?
No. Apache has limited ROM space. The Manila build I have has a tweaked xml file that allows to work on Apache. Thanks to Maxx134.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=37314
Too could not build in rom newer version. But from cab TouchFLO 2D v2.0 works on Apache.
Could you post a download link?
Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541750.
I tried the patched cab and the normal and neither work. They both just say Launching TouchFLO... and then "tap to launch TouchFLO".
Took not here, but for basis cab undertook from a that post. Exactly I do not remember whether put yet that (there a few cabs), but started in the total. True weather on main not updating.
sorry for my English
Why not use Manila 2D 2.5?
The apache does not have enough memory for it to run. Even the Manila I use normally wouldn't have worked. It was tweaked to run on apache.
AlbumSearcher cannot open.
Sorry about that. I uploaded a file (bottom of post), just download, unzip, and put in /windows/.
Why not do a 21885 rom?The 21xxx series seems better than 28XXX series
On mine, rom with Manila it is better to do on WM 6.1 21054
I thought there would be a greater demand for newer roms. If you want a rom, please choose a build below and a few apps and post back.
21054 21869 21874 21882 21884 23506 23511 28002 28004 28005 28009 28011 28014 28205
They all work decently, manila or not, except 28005 and 28009 have some issues with the sd card.
Choose pretty much any apps you want. Keep in mind I can also add the following:
*Manila 2D 1.0 or 2.0
*6.5.1 and 6.5.3 close button actually closes
Also tell me bootloader and carrier.

Sorrry, but I don't have 21885. 21884 will be used instead.
Please also reply back with your bootloader and carrier.
SDHC Support and Camera will also be added. Let me know if you want any other apps. I can put almost whatever you want in a rom.
Can I please get everyone's bootloader and carrier for future public roms?
Basic story is i work as a sky satelite engineer and we have to use software on a PDA to manage our work stock etc... this app only runs on WM 5 and WM 6 not 6.1, are there any cooks willing to try and make a workaround so this app will run on 6.1 ? I would love to have a nice fast 6.1 rom to use for work as i use tomtom and this work app at the same time and it manages my contacts etc for work.
Thread move to this section cause it's a general question about WM6.1 not to the device HTC Cruise/polaris

Sorry should have stated i have a polaris
NVM i managed to get the software to run on a pdaviet wm6.1 rom
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.
