Does anyone know a way to get the Windows Mobile 6.5.3 SIP keyboard onto a non 6.5.3 version of 6.5, or even 6.1? I really love the fact that it's finger-friendly and has Ctrl & Tab. HTC's Full QWERTY is great, however, why do they insist on leaving out Ctrl & Tab keys?

hey guys (and girls where aplicable),
i got a question (a sorta dumb one). If a smartphone lik the iPAQ 514 Voice Messenger or the HTC Vox have windows mobile 6 standard does that mean they run regular windows mobile programs or smartphone versions? See the Cheeta/treo 750 has windows mobile standard ed. and is called a smartphone but it uses regular PPC programs, the other two mentioned before have the same wm6 but no touch screen. so i was wondering if that made a diference in the phones capabilities to use PPC Progs? I appreciate any answers as i am greatly puzzled and intregued buy this.
With WM6 they dispensed with the term "smartphone" in favour of WM 6 Standard. Too many non Windows Mobile phones were being called "smart phones" as well as PPC phones.
WM Standard has no support for touch screens and many PPC apps will not run on it.
WM Pro has touchscreens.
understanding versions...
so lemmie go over this... a ppc with a touch screen is said to run WM6 pro, a ppc without a touch screen is said to run wm6 standard the "smartphone" version. so what of the vox? it has all the capabilities of a full sized PPC without the touch screen so where would it and the ipaq 514 fit in? Because correct me if i'm wrong but dont they offer features like MS Office editing and production verus the others whose ability is limited to viewing or is it the WM6 platform that actually enables this?
You're right, its just a functionality of WM6. Any smartphone (i.e. non-Touch screen device) running WM6 has those same office capabilities and will be running WM6 Standard, not Professional.
As far as I know the two WM6 are one same core of the same OS but..
In the PPC version there is more advanced setup in the menus wich setup is locked in the Srtandard by default.
For example in the Standard there is no way to change the IP of the wi-fi manually.
And in the pocket pc there is some dll's, responsible for touchscreen operation .
yes but....
i do believe you might be correct on everything but the I.P setup for standard. i have an sda running wm6 and i can manually setup my wifi and change certain settings in the network config. Also the HP ipaq 514 that i've been researching also has the same features. see my big thing is i love he compact size of the smart phone but need the capabilities of the PPC. It wold be great if i could get the best of both. i know the O2 XDA stealth has that exact combo but they are hard to find and kinda pricey for thier age.
There are separate SDKs for Standard and Pro, so I think the differences run a little deeper.
well what to do?
well i guess my final questions then wuld be what kind of phone are:-
1/ O2's xda stealth
2/ HP's Ipaq 514
hello everyone... im new on windows mobile, and i want to upgrade my HTC 8125 windows mobile 5 to 6.1 with touch flo...
most programs i have are for Windows Mobile 5,
i wonder if they still compatible with wm 6.1?
thanks...
hope u can help me...
you can run just about anything for wm5 on wm6.1
you just need to find a rom that has touch scrolling. the touchflo control panel is not nessesary.
my rom has the touch dll installed in it and in most cases I dont use a stilus. most roms have the scroling feature nowadays anyway.
watch for brightrom final.
I will be uploading it tomorrow.
thanks!
i want touch flo just to have the feature but as a matter of fact... any good room will be good:.. thanks! =)
Hello community of xda-developers,
I got a huge problem: I just changed from my oldschool Windows Mobile 2003-PDA to a brand new HTC Touch Diamond with Windows Mobile 6.1.
I used to use Powerlex 4 mobile dictionary from GData, which worked fine on my wm2003-device.
Now i installed it on my touch diamond and the program runs, but once i try to look up for a word the program crashes and WM 6.1 gives me an error message/message, that a problem has occured.
Is there any way of getting this program run on WM 6.1? Thanks!
How about just switching to a different dictionary? Lexisgoo Dictionary is excellent and works well with WM 6.1
problem is that I was usually looking for some Freeware, but no matches in google. I don't want to pay again 39,99€....the GData powerlex 4 cost me this price I want to continue using it!
by dictionaries do we mean books i was just wondering why not by the book.
hey jayjay, no, by dictionaries i mean a program, which can translate and describe you words and sentences from german to french or from french to german, etc.
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.
Hello all,
I want to know if it is possible to add gui of wm 6.5 and above to wm 6.1 just gui and all reamaining core same?
If this is possible we would have a fast wm 6.1 rom with touch freindly user interface for atleast low powered devices.
the windows mobile shell is how it is if you want something else you need a 3th party program
