Ok
If I update my ROM from a standard 5.x to a 6.x version
1. Will my software still work, specifically TomTom 5??
2. I note some people move back anf forth with their Rom versions eg
to 6.5 and down to say 6.1. However, perhaps this is due to the Rom's.
What I need to know is can I revert to the official Rom version from the Dell site. Does it check and refuse to load??
3. Do the 'special' versions ie 6.1 and 6.5 have the updated bluetooth stack included.
Please note english is my first language but not necessarily aximspeak so hope the flavour of what I want to know is understood.
Thanks for any help on 1, 2 or 3 above.

Dear All,
I would like to ask what is the latest WM2005 ROM version? and is it the best ROM? if not then what is the best version? I have found some on buzzdev.net but I don't know because this my first unofficial upgrade.
I have XDA II with loader 1.01.
Thanks a Lot,
they are all based on the same core rom with improvements
newer versions == more improvements
other then that it's all about how big a ramdisk they are installed
hi rudegar,
sorry, but I must disagree.
they are not based on the same core...
and there's much more differencies, than just size of RAMdisk.
take care
buzz
and what the difference between rom kitchen n rom?? i've read the post by buzz in buzzdev.net, there is 40mb in rom kitchen n 20mb in rom.. what type should i use??
thanx
Updates are good

I agree with Buzz.
I think that windows mobile 5.0 is based on windows CE 5.0 architecture and there can be updates to both and the size of a ram disk is not that important as long as a device is capable of running your desired apps without running out of program memory. A newer roms is likely to run better and be more compatible with apps but can still contain bugs. I think that I got more performance from reg editing and ocing that upgrading from 2003se to 5.0 but i always try a new rom.
Buzz do you use ms voice command and any idea on the problem it has with AKU 3.2?
p.s. a rom kitchen is where roms are cooked!
"I think that windows mobile 5.0 is based on windows CE 5.0 architecture"
well we all agree on that one
the place that buzz set to streigth was when i said that
all windows mobiles were based on the same leaked 2005 rom
What I have seen is ROMs based on AKU 2, AKU 2.3, and AKU 3.2. of course each with it's own personal customization and may be some tweaks for performace. From the experiance what is the main differances between AKU versions and what is the best customization from the features and the performace point of view?
I have tried all the wm05 roms here but i got nothing but the sad thought that i don't have a compatible wm5 device. All of them have many flaws and none of them work correctly or as fast as they should be.. not even 03se. After many upgrades and downgrades i found out that the best one is the qtek rom and nothing else. It wasn't suposed to work on wm5 so don't upload versions with bugs and so... try to get a version that will not move slow, will have all the original programs, all the original programs will work and let the user install whatever he wants, don't make roms with preinstalled programes because that only makes them work slow .
Try AKU 3.2 ROM as they r latest and the stable one .
agree with you. stable and fast.
hi,
i am new to all this, but i am looking for the latest rom for an imate jamin, which is (from what i have read) a htc prophet.
i am interested in putting the latest (unmodified) version of wm6 if possible, i have got a modified version on there atm, but i dont know if it is my mind playing tricks on me, but it just doesnt seem to work correctly.
otherwise what is the latest version of wm5
this is the first time of me modifying a phone, but i do know the basics of flashing devices, as i have been modifying psp for a few years now.
many thanks
massiveoni
There is no 'official' WM6 ROM, as imate etc. have not bothered to create one. There are many WM6 (and WM6.1) ROMs floating around the forums, but these are modified versions of other phone ROMs (for exampl, korand 3.1 is based on a Kaiser ROM). This can lead to problems with the running of the ROM.
The FTP server has original (shipped) WM5 ROMs on it here or here.
hi dear
hello from this here can i use portugese version to upgrade to wm5 on my jamin?
I want to upgrade my kaiser from 6.0 to 6.1 , my phone is from t-mobile and i flashed it already with the wwe 6.0
Now i want 6.1 nut i can not get it from HTC ( phone is from t-mobile ) can someone tell me what is the latest official upgrade to 6.1 from htc.
I see so many upgrades but want the original 6.1 from htc
thank in advance

i did search
i did search but the are many different ones and al i want to know is what is the latest original version
I think I've downloaded and tried all of the ROMs here, but I think some of them just made it worst! I tried the new release of the ROM (forgot its name), such big fonts and errors, no threaded SMS, no splashscreens. Some ROMs just too slow, some are fast, some requires too many applications, some just take too much memory.
So, where can I download the original Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard? I really want a ROM that doesn't have any pre-installed programs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=375670 thats your best shot for a clean OEM 6.1 rom enjoy
thanks..

There is no original WM6.x ROM for the Tornado. All WM6.x ROMs are custom made and they usually meet the needs of their cook.
If you need something original, install WM5 - if you need a clean WM6.1 ROM, install the one rafyvitto mentioned above. But you must know that a "clean" version does not nessessarily mean more free internal storage.
i installed windows mobile 6.5 on my palm treo 750 but it is a bit slow and it has a lot of problems . So i want to install windows mobile 6 or 6.1 , but i don't know how . Also i want to install a greek version of windows mobile ( any version) but again i don't know how . If anyone can help with my problems it would be great . Thank you
You can install WM6.1 the same way you installed WM6.5.
If you want to downgrade to an official WM6.0 ROM you will probably need to edit the payload file first.
Remember that although some of the WM6.1 files are quite good and stable, they can still have bugs. If you want to minimize that issue, you'll need to go back to WM6.0.
I don't believe I have seen any Greek ROMs posted, so I can't help you there.
