That will depend...
6.1 faster
6.5 nicer but slower
If your device is old and with small amount of RAM stay with 6.1, if give it a try to 6.5 and let us know
I've went back to 6.1 in the past due to speed & stability.

so overall is WM 6.1 faster than 6.0 ? iam thinking about taking the leap to 6.1 but only if he performance gain is worth it....any feedback will be appreciated....thanks.
Backup your data and give it a try!
What do you have to loose?
For me, WM 6.1 is super fast! The only thing I liked about the T-Mobile WING (HTC Kaiser, I believe) was its speed. Since going WM 6.1 my Wizard feels just as fast, if not faster.
In every area it is faster in my estimation
Not to mention, threaded SMS is just sweet
Without a doubt it is faster.
Speed differences in the different 6.1?
Anyone notice the big differences in speed with all the wm6.1 compare to "TNT 6.1 real port" that goes blazing fast?

just installed Slim 19199 WM 6.1 Rom and i ahve to say....WM6.1 truly is faster than 6.0
Differences in speed between 6.0 and 6.1 are LESS than among different 6.0 ROMS (or among different 6.1 ROMS). So, 6.1 is generally faster, but some 6.0 ROMS may be faster than other 6.1 ROMS.

threaded SMS is sweet but also slow.
plus more step to erase single sms (must use d-pad to highlight the sms and erase)
nevertheless, sweet but slow (i use it anyway, because like frazell said, it's sweet).
6.1- faster and longer lasting
I know, I know. It sounds like a chewing gum commercial, but it's true. I've found Windows Mobile 6.1 to be more responsive and to maintain battery charge better than 6.0. Here's an overview of some of the changes.
It just gives me an excuse to keep holding onto my trusty old wizard!

I have xv6700 and wanted to know what was the best 6.1 rooms for this phone that didnt have any issues.
depending on your bootloader give my 6.1 rom a try ive had no issues with it
where do i dl yours from?
which bootloader is your Apache?
which ever is the best one for my xv6700 but i do need to back up my wm 5 thats already on here... what software is best for backing everything up
bump.... still need a 6.1 rom that works good with verizon 6700
I think it's wm 6.1 21054.
is this the bootloader or version of the rom i should be looking for
i recommend mr4r4n's 6.5 roms found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502418
i ask for 6.1 not 6.5.... its prob gonna make my phone real slow anyways
he cooks 6.1 roms too but his 6.5 roms are really nice not slow at all and the titanium interface is great for this phone where its low on memory and would have trouble running m2d or spb mobile shell 3

i agree, im using his 6.5 and its much better then 6.1 and forget M2D, now that's a real memorry killer, it was designed for the newer phones that have 3 times as much as the good old ppc 6700
I dont get it. I upgraded my treo 750 to windows moible 6.1 or at least that is what it says on the screen. But it looks nothing like this. My windows mobile 6.1 looks like windows 5.0.
Where did i go wrong? It looks nothing like this.

That version of Windows Mobile 6.1 is the standard version for Smartphones (what Microsoft calls non-touchscreen phones). You have a touch screen phone and thus it gets the professional version of 6.1. Unfortunately the professional version of 6.1 didn't get many UI changes. 6.5 however did. Hope this helps.

That makes sense. Kind of stupid I think might as well install the non touch screen version. It looks better.
The 6.5 is not the official wm. I heard its not stable..
I'm not that advance in this installing thing. I dont want to mess it up.
Thanks again for the helpful information.
this looks good. i dont get it.

Why isn't there a ROM cooked for TREO? Does the ROM for the Wing work on the TREO?

there are a lot of aplications that change the looks of your windows mobile 6.1, those are what most people call skins, just like the one's you use in windows xp or vista...
the windows mobile cooked roms are normaly reduced to it's basics so they run faster and stay more stable, and of course give you more available memory.
if you realy want your treo to look all "fancy" you can google for it, or look deeply in this forum, you will find a lot of cool skins and aplications for your pda.
hope that this info is usefull to you and if you need any help with anything please send a PM.

my mistake ;p
in another thread titled "How to Flash Treo Pro," a poster wrote,
"Sprint has an official CDMA 6.5 ROM for the Palm Treo Pro, only if there was a GSM 6.5 ROM that was stable for the Palm Treo Pro.
I won't upgrade my Palm Treo Pro to 6.5 because I can see so many issues on the forum's and I cannot find a stock english 6.1 GSM ROM.
On the other hand, the O2 Atom was very easy to upgrade, and very stable."
Can someone verify this and, if so, show me how to obtain it?
Thanks,
quicknight

well that was me that made the statement, I hardspl my Treo Pro and tried all the 6.5 roms, there is really no benefit going to 6.5, slower and has annoying bugs... the only rom I did like was Heechee's Naked, but... all these roms have bugs with MarketPlace and Windows Live which I use.. so I reverted back to the stock 6.1 rom, and Marketplace and latest Windows Live works perfectly...
On the other hand, the O2 Atom Life made a huge difference in upgrading to 6.5, faster response, better battery life.. no bugs.. better UI experience...
On the Treo Pro it aint worth it... don't bother until there is a stable rom out...

thanks for the reply. I don't really use Marketplace or windows live (bing?) so that wouldn't really bother me. So, then, is the O2 Atom Life the "official Sprint ROM?"

No, both my windows mobile phones are GSM, the O2 Atom is not official rom, the last official rom for the O2 Atom Life was WM6.
The O2 Atom Life uses a rom created by bajok he is on the forums here...
Look at my signature..
There are a lot of ROMs for windows mobile 6.5 for asus p320 and im really confused as to which ROM is the most stable and is the most responsive . Im currently running 23085 build and i find it pretty slow on my phone and i want to change it to a more stable and more faster ROM even if it is a little older version . I really hope somebody could point out the most stable and fast ROM as of now.
Thanks...
Will someone commnet here... I am also seaching for the WM 6.5 for my ASUS P320 device ?
Go there:
http://asusmobile.net/board/
if you want to spend some time for translations, go there:
http://asusmobile.ru/board/index.php?c=20
(review of topics may give you some WWE roms there)
imo, you'd better find/make good 6.1 system, than struggle with 6.5.x fails.
Unfortunately, your p320 is worst thing you ever can get from Asus(omap cpu,), and there's no WAY to get heavy, fullblown 6.5.x with its "new" gui working ok enough.

Hi Prashanth and Sarvesh,
I am using WM 6.5 ROM build 23504.5.3.0. My device is 2 years old and i like the performance of the ROM. Its faster than WM6.1, more responsive than WM6.1. In short the performance is much better than WM 6.1. You can try it out on psppc.in.
PS: Do you face a network drop issue in your WM 6.5 ROM?
