Hi!
I am really new into firmware customization on htc devices. Since wiki is not avaible lately i am not able to study and learn how to do it.
Can anyone please guide me?
when i boot with volume down key my device says
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
I think there is no stable and hard-patching android avaible and maybe never will be as it seems.
I bought this touch hd from someone not new. and i wanna install wm 6.5 as i heard its avaible. WM 6.5 is so slow sometimes even official patches from its website were applied by previous owner. And its strange that the ram optimization of wm 6.1 is not stable sometimes ram usage is %37 sometimes its %47 if i reset it it gets back to 37
Can anyone guide me please?

Can somebody explain it to me what is the difference between Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 6.1 on HTC Wizard device?
Is WM5 more stable than WM6?
Is WM5 faster than WM6?
What is the advance of using WM6 instead of WM5 on HTC Wizard?
Just give it a try in my opinion i can say that WM6.1 is much faster and stable than WM5. Also changing to WM6.1 solved many bugs for me which i had in WM5 ROM. Like WiFi connection problems, GPS module Nokia LD-3W connection problems with GPS navigation software etc... if i could compare it to something similar it is like to change from Windows 98 to Windows XP
Outstanding! So, You recommend me to use WM6, a? I will, is flashing procedure very complicated?
Like he said, the difference between 5.0 and 6.1 is immense. 6.1 boots faster, runs faster, doesnt require as much memory for programs, looks nicer, shoot...its just all around better.
The flashing process is not that hard, you just need to read, read,read the guides here for your particular phone, whether it is a G3 or a G4, and away you go! Ask here if you need any more help!
Treestsyat!
I just get my new Wizard, but it is G4 device
I just did CID unlock (HardSPL), and now choosing adequate WM6 ROM which I can use. I plan to put Slim Diamond 4, what do You think about it? Should be better than default O2 WM5 ROM, G4 safe, but we will see. I do not like TouchFLO It just disturbing me while I am using my XDA...
TRY
All of we Try lots of roms touchflo fre and enhanced... but it s a vicious thing hahahaha, jajaja just let your boring WM5 wizard revive with WM6.1!!!!!
I reflash my wizard G3 almost 3 times at month just to try some new features...
Hi,
I hope someone can help me with this issue.
I have a HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) which is from Orange UK. It is running WM 6.1 1.19.61.1.
I have been attempting to flash the rom to a version of WM 6.5.
I have run the hardspl upgrade, then have tried to flash with a number of WM 6.5 (2 from Dutty, 1 from MIRI, and a few others).
The problems I get with ANY version of WM 6.5 are as follows:-
Firstly when it starts booting it has a graphics issue, it looks like the vga driver is not installed, but if you press the power button twice the vga looks ok!
Then when it has loaded WM 6.5 and Touchflo 3D it freezes quite a lot.
Also the phone cannot connect to any mobile network such as Orange UK, when you try to turn the phone radio on it does nothing! WIFI and BT etc work fine!
Also it randomly restarts!
When I flash the rom back to WM 6.1 1.19.61.1 the phone works perfectly again!
Is it not possible to flash my phone? Or can anyone advise me on a wm 6.5 rom that will work!
Any advise would be greatfully received.
Thanks
Problem fixed
If anyone is interested I have got to the bottom of my problems with installing a cooked rom.
I followed a tutorial on flashing the blackstone on youtube which stated I should first install hardspl v1.14, well it seems this video was a bit out of date as when I read the notes on this site it stated I should first install hard spl 1.56 for cooked roms!
I did this and now my upgrades are working fine .
I now have wm 6.5 running ok on my blackstone.
For future reference, our friend Digital Outcast did a fantastic thread here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
It is a sticky on the blackstone forum and easily found, a quick look would have found this, but well done for finding your own way and getting it done
HTC Blackstone HardSPL problem

I believe ftp://xda:[email protected]_radio_sign_25.65.30.04_1.58.21.23_Ship.exe might be what you are looking for.
More about xda-developers FTP - http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_FTP_Site
Mind you, downgrade might NOT work, due to radio driver issues.
It happened to me, so I had to stay with 6.1
Pls guys help me regards to this matter ...
About custom ROM of course. OK I know the first reaction to such question is that the question is stupid and "find out yourself" and such.
But I don't even have the device (I have HD2 and Touch Pro), I want to upgrade a colleague's Polaris because WM5 and our new Exchange 2010 don't fit very well.
So I don't have the time, our "prerequisites" are simple:
- WM6.1 and up.
- Manila (of any version) welcome.
- Stable and light.
Anybody can help?
If you are looking for WM6.1 then I recommend ROM in my signature. It comes without Manila. There is also a full flavor of this ROM with manila
thanks noted
unless someone comes with a nice 6.5 one (I already use 6.5.5 on my own devices)
use pcar's roms good stable and fast... also wm5? i swear this phone never came with that?!?!
what do you mean?
I am not looking at WM5 ROMs.
good rom => Pcarvallo's roms
WM5? I will explain. The touch cruise shipped with 6.0 upped to 6.1 then cooked to 6.5/6.5.x.
That was my point nothing really about it. Most likely a typo by you...
3LIT3 VIII Naked is probably the best choise. Everything what I tried worked without problem and soft-resets I did only extraordinarily.
Kostas' A- version is a stable WM6.5 rom, everything works very well.
Just try it out, you can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554071
thanks guys
3LIT3 VIII for 6.1, without doubt.
megan rom for 6.5. full stop.
Hello,
I have a Htc Fuze p4600 with carrier At__ . ( You know who)
I was wondering if anyone knows how to download the lastest and greatest OS 6.5 on my devise ? Ive been to to the Htc website and my carriers website and cannot find an upgrade for it , any help would be mostly appreciated, and Is there a possibility for WM7 for this devise as thanks
Mr.nobody
Officially, Touch Pros' & Fuzes' don't support Windows Mobile 6.5, but several modern custom ROMs have flawless Windows Mobile 6.5 builds, along with extras. Just peek through the Touch Pro/Fuze ROM Development fora, you'll find several custom ROMs: TAEL, Energy, etc.
I recommend starting here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448008
Agent Zach is right in that there is no carrier or OEM upgrade to 6.5 and his recommendations are spot on. As to the question about Windows Phone 7 I can guarantee you there will not be an OEM or carrier upgrade to this platform. It's further unlikely to see custom or cooked ROMs for the touch pro / fuze for WP7 as the core OS is designed around much more stringent hardware requirements that our device does not meet.
