Upgrade to 6.1? - HTC Vox

Hi,
I've got a Vox and was wonder if if it's worth upgrading it to WinMo 6.1 using one of the ROMs that are kicking around here?
Cheers
Lee

it is worth upgrading to Dr Martin Gonzo's 6.1 as it has many many new fixes and the homescreen rules.

Yeah. Gonzo's one is much more responsive than the Vox's original ROM and additionally has many useful apps pre-installed.

Cool thanks - will have a look at that one and the Fireburned (sp?) ROM...
From reading - I assume I have to use USPL first? This protects my Vox for being bricked - right?
FTR: My device is a E650 / Vox / Orange UK

its only a help if it bricks! with supercud you can flash eeverything everytime its useful if it breaks

No, you have to do USPL in order to flash ROM that are not from you carrier! Without it would not be possible to flash a ROM not from Orange UK!

If you do don't plan on playing any drm signed audio. Rhapsody, napster, etc.

Hello, I will want to know the ROM Windows 2005 run on the SPV M1000 and its is worth really the blow to pass has WM 2005. Thanks
yes it's possible

buzzdev.net
But does the passages have Wm 2005 brings to you it really much thing compared to Wm2003? And especially can you one pass by again has previous ROM?
It gives you a much improved interface, and better stability.
You can easily downgrade to an older ROM if you wanted too.
But I could configure easily the parameters operator (Orange in my case) and the Camera and the MMS work you correctly it? Thank you

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!

Just bought a orange e650 and a few questions

Just won a SPV E650 on ebay that is on it's way to me. I've never had one of these before with only xda's in my pocket.
Are their any good apps for it that might be considered essential?
I've just read a thread with people installing wm6.5.
Is their a tutorial on how to do this anywhere?? Is this still OK on a orange branded phone??
p.s. Are they reliable??
congratulations!
Wm6.5 still has some bugs and is not officially released yet , i advise you to install wm6.1.
1) Update your USPL
- download http://ostiedbrosse.free.fr/Xda-Dev/wm 6.1/windows mobile 6.1 v1.1.rar
- Follow the steps from readme file except the last one (install flash.exe because we are going to install a newer clean rom than this one)
2) download http://st.free.fr/phpmyvisites.php?...02833&pagename=FILE:VoxRomWM6.1Clean_v1.4.zip and open flash.exe
Get the USPL files from the sticky and install them according to the Wiki (link in my signature) and then choose any of the ROMs around here!
Ok, cheers for that. Is their much difference between wm6 & 6.1 though?
The homescreen of WM6.1 is different because it has the sliding panels. The taskmanager is also different; in WM6.1 you can see how much memory a program uses, but you can't see the total available memory (and in WM6.0 you can).
Important for your warranty is that if you flash your ROM, you won't get any warranty ofcourse!
I found also a site with from Microsoft where they compare the WM versions (WM5, 6, 6.1 - PPC & Smartphone)
Microsoft Compare Site for WM versions

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.
