i know that 6.1 is alittle out dated but i was wondering if anyone knows of any news app that can steam new headlines on your today screen?

As Magician cant run WM5 or WM6. Almost all new Applications cannot run on Magician as they are not compatible with WM4. So any solutions to run the Applications on Magician? A patch or something that emulates WM5 API on WM4 and allows WM5/6 Applications to be Installed/Used. ?
yea! this way it good.
look this one
this gx.dll can use wm5 games on wm3
Here ya go WinMo lovers, a screen shot of the purported next generation Windows Mobile OS codenamed Crossbow, courtesy of MS Mobile News. Sure, it could just be a WinMo 5.0 theme for all we know but if this is the full Pocket PC homescreen above, then we can expect a glossier look, continued softkey support, and a smattering of oh so Vista icons when this, and the SmartPhone version are released in the first half of 2007. As we already heard from Microsoft, Crossbow will feature a new version of Office Communicator and "strong links with Office 2007 and Exchange 12." If all this still leaves you aching for the hotness of Photon, well, suck it up son 'cause that's not scheduled to hit until the first half of 2008.
I have nothing to say with this issue but maybe just a few threads that you may want to count on.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452501 for a list of magician today + other software.
http://www.pointui.com for a good screen
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444414&page=8 for a good today replacement that gives you really Vanilla 2D and Diamond skins for your today (but in Chinese). I have translated a skin with iphone - just look into the forum with keyword iphone2.
Of course, if you are running magician you might want to consider the tx203 rom, which is the best rom for me - some reported buggy but I have been running it for 1 year on my o2 mini without any problem.

Crossbow? are it's WM6.1????
Hello all,
I'm totally new to this so please be a little patient with me.
Last week I bought a second hand HTC Touch Cruise. After playing a while and learning hoe to use I noticed some discrepancies between the software and the manual.
In ROM settings I found:
Released at XDA-developers.com
Polaris (Build 0.60)
(c)2007 bepe @ Polaris Project
Thanks to: maimach, ...
Edition: Full
ROM date: 17.03.2008
Build time: 15:11:29
My questions:
1. So this is not an original Windows Mobile 6.1?
2. Should I upgrade this, if yes: how?
3. I'm missing the Windows Live Messenger
4. I totally do not like the Opera Browser, but this seams fixed and automatically being used
5. Windows Update is gone; do I miss something there
6. Is it possible to go back to the original Windows? And what would I miss with that?
Thanks for your patience, and hopefully someone can guide me through this.
Greetings,

Yes, you have a custom version of Windows Mobile installed on your device. HTC has not yet released a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM for the Touch Cruise yet. From factory, they all come with Windows Mobile 6.0 installed. The factory version has Pocket IE setup as the default browser, along with Opera 8.65 installed. Also, the factory version does not have threaded SMS and zooming in IE, since those are features of WM6.1, not WM6.0. If I were in your shoes, I'd keep the Bepe ROM just a little while longer as the official HTC WM6.1 release should (fingers crossed) be here any day now. I'd upgrade to that, instead of going back the the official WM6.0 ROM at this point only to upgrade to the official ROM when its released shortly.
Also, you might want to go to Opera.com and download the Opera Mobile 9.5 Beta. Its a much improved browser akin to the iPhone Safari experience.
Hello,
Thanks for your advice.
Yes, I will wait.
I installed the Opera 9.5beta, but I still get the problem of extreme miniaturized webpages, so I will stick to IE for now.
What about Live Messenger? I cannot get int from the Microsoft site. Is it available here?
Thanks, Arnie
Hi -- the legwork for all your questions has already been completed -- try out the forum search feature, it works very well.

Do some browsing around these forums and you'll discover a lot. A search for Live messenger cab will reveal some download links. Double tapping on the screen will zoom in when using Opera Mobile 9.5. Double tapping again will zoom you back out.
Yep seems like MS will be launching another update before 7.0 is released
for more info follow this link
Thanks for sharing
But nothing about a possible release date yet, I don´t think we will see 6.5 before may or june 09 (hope i´m wrong)
Maybe they will rename WM 6.1 AKU 1.5(6).x to WM 6.5 like they did with WM6 AKU1 (which became WM6.1) i talk for the professional version not the standart one
So far in aku 1.4/5 they have added the new Internet Explorer Mobile, Flash Lite 3.1 (up to 3.5) finger scrolling builtin the OS, and more minor changes.
In near future we must expect zune services integration and silverlight mobile - with these added we will have Windows Mobile 6.5
Sounds like good news to me!
The odds of me getting a WM7 upgrade for my Polaris is as close to zero as it gets. But an upgrade to WM6.5 is very much possible indeed. That means more fun and a better phone.
Keep your fingers crossed!
Hello, I'm searching for a chef to cook something good for my HP iPaq Data Messenger, I think this pda has a lot of potential, but the built-in WM6.1 is too slow and buggy
It would be great to have a good ROM for this phone! Thanks to everyone that's working on this!
ROM 6.5 help me, please
I have a HP ipaq data messenger. But I can't find any ROM 6.5 anywhere.
Please help me. I have only used windows mobile for 2 week and have no experience with it.

ROM 6.5 for HP ipaq data messenger (HP Oak)
I have tried to find ROM 6.5 for HP ipaq data messenger (HP Oak), but not found
Please help me or please cook for me.
Thanks
I am looking for a new version of Windows Mobile for "HP iPAQ Data Messenger".
Can anyone tell me the code name or the HTC Gert, which is identical in construction?
Hi guys,
did anyonbe identify the ata messenger?
Which HTC version would it be?
tx
any updates?
There should be no reason why it can't be updated. The old ipaq got a update.
I'm also looking for the WM6.5 update for the HP Data Messenger, HP Oak, but no luck!
Not sure if compatible choices is the right move?
Anyone tried?
Not to be found
Also looking for WM 6.5 ROM for the Data Messenger, but so far I've had no luck and I have looked for it vigorously !
Also looking for data messenger 6.5 rom
Hi I am also looking for data messenger 6.5 ROM, anyone cooking it?
I will donate to anyone how can have a 6.5 rom for data messenger.
Thanks
Guys, there is currently no 6.5 ROM out and I doubt there will ever be one since the Data Messenger was discontinued November 2009. (In other words, none are gonna be made anymore, those around are the last ones).
I think all you guys want is a phone with more eye candy and touch friendlier. So I recommend these apps that I have on my Data Messenger to make it awesome:
SPB Mobile Shell
Opera Mobile 10 (Free)
Resco Explorer
Resco Photo Manager (Or you can go with the free HTC Album App)
HTC Dialer (Free)
ROM
Hi, thanks for that list, I already installed mobile shell and the phone is a lot more usable and stable but still it sometimes crashes.
I gather that HP won't release any new version for it, but I was hoping that someone here would try to cook a rom for it.
Thanks
It is the worst device I have bought in my all live!
No assistance, no Update, no Battery live, too many bugs... too many crash...
I was forced to buy a new device.
HP... never more!!!

Mortplayer(but it crashes really often)
and various other things...

i can cook a rom but i can't find resources;
what kind of program i need? and about compatibility or driver?
if you have possibility to find a wm6.5 to kook i'll be pleasured to create a rom...
Thanks to all!!!!
Somebody can help me?My HP data messenger was can't boot anymore.When i hard reset after that it's doesn't come back.How can I do that?
I want to boot from computer.Can I?
Hi,
does anyone know when will be released new version 2.0 of Skyfire for Windows mobile ? I don't know why they didn't release new version also for Windows mobile or Symbian . I miss in version 1.5, TABS, touch FLASH PLAYER for playing video and faster page rendering [ faster rendering of "gray squares" ] and all this things have version for Android .
Thanks.
I need a wm version too. I've seen the video demonstration on an android device -> waaaouuuu
any date for the wm version ?
I just wanted a browser with flash support for use on my HTC S710 WM 6 S. ..
as far as i'm aware, they stopped development for winmo right now. they were supposed to have skyfire for blackberry a year ago and they stopped the development for that too. all focus is on android atm
android = teh sux lol.. but if you think about it winphone7's are coming out soon-ish. so why dev for 6.5 when its going to be outdated sooner rather than later. im kind of worried that windowsphone7 doesnt have any backwards compatability with 6.5 but then again it might not matter.
R.I.P.
Support for WM (and Nokia) pulled without (much) notice. Skyfire for Windows Mobile is dead. Only currently-supported platforms are iOS and Android. Some quote I found from Googling says they couldn't figure out a way to successfully monetize the WM user base so we're cut out. Bastards.
