I have a hx4700 running on Windows Mobile 2003 SE. I've never upgraded it in any form.
I am keen to upgrade to WM 6.x. I have been reading alot of the threads.
Can anyone help me to upgrade my hx4700? What is the latest/best version to use. There seems to be more than one version, some apps work on some and not the others ie WiFi. Some of the threads are quite old. Is there a lastest download where all the glitches have been ironed out?
I thank you in advance .

I know it is quite old ppc, but I have it and I woudl like to upgrade it to WM 2003 because i need some applications that do not work on 2002.
So, after "digging" into Google, I found out that the upgrade is posible, also places where rom (upgrade rom) was storerd has expired. So I do not now where to look.
If anyone have any idea where to found it or look for it, it would be nice to hear.
Thanks in advance
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

My 1st thread so I'm ready for a "use the search" reply... [I have!]
The latest WinMob 6.1 Roms for my HD seem to be CE OS 5.2.21051...
has WinMob 6.1 development stopped there? I guess so as all new ROM's coming out are WM6.5 and it is due out (officially) in a couple of months.
Thanks for any informative replies.
according to some threads here the wm 6.1 will go on till 2109x
and further 211xx and newer versions will be wm 6.5
but as of now the latest OFFICIAL version is 21051
though there are HEX versions like 21068 etc but i would prefer 21051 (which i currently use)
The difference between between WinMo 6.1 an 6.5 is basically cosmetic. The big leap forward comes when WinMo VersionWhatEver???? runs on Windows CE 6.0. Until then, here is some music.......
Thanks

Thanks for the info.

I think you're right there... M$ have just added a fresh lick of paint on an old Ford Escort with 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.
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
