WMP 6.5? - General Questions and Answers

Anyone think they can rip out the WMP from the leak builds of WM6.5 and make it an installable file or something for us users with older version of WM that has yet to see this new beta build supported. Thank you.

i dont think its been seen yet and as far as we know its the same as 6.1

So...Ive never flashed a ROM before

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.

wmp 6.5?

The device I currently have does not have a good build(I think there is one but its terrible) at this point and time. So if I have wm6.1 you think it is possible to install wmp 6.5 on my device with out any issues? If so can someone please provide a cab for it.
roms are never in the form of cabs
roms have to be specially made for a device to work look in the wiki or the forum
of your device if one of the early beta roms of 6.5 is available for your device

[Article] WM6 and 6.1 users can download the 6.5 beta version now.

Just found that article...some of you might find it of interest.

Where do you get WM6.5?

Hi, I was surprised today as I found this forum (never heard about WM6.5, especially for (old) HTC Wizard). I'm curious about how do you get WM6.5? I don't think M$ give WM6.5 ROM for free.
I think all WM6.5-Roms here are Beta-versions, right? If so... is there any restrictions? Or can I use WM6.5 on my device like if it's a "fullversion" (SMS, eMail, ActiveSync, Internet...)?
I don't want to start a debate about legal-rights, just as I said I'm curious about it.

Non of the wm 6.5 rom are official and there never will be an official. M$ official release of wm 6.5 will be in october. According to M$ the WM 6.5 is only a skin change of 6.1 and will be an lite version of windows mobile 7 for low end devices and WM 7 for high end. If you want WM 6.5 you can find one in the Windows 6 section under wizard but non official
Thank you.

WM6.1 vs. 6.5 on Wizard

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
