[Q] Latest ROM for HTC Polaris (XDA Orbit 2)??? - Touch Cruise General

Hi!
I need your help, please
I tried many different ROMs. Thanks to all the cookers!
Could anybody tell me, where I can find the latest (most stable ROM) for the Polaris (XDA Orbit 2) fitting the following criteria:
- WM 6.5
- German user interface
- Manilla 2d or other/better
Currently I'm running the latest Version of Alex-V i found. But my XDA is not very stable with it. I think, there is less memory free. Running my navigation software, it often breaks down with "low memory" failure message. And any other application and event is very slow.
Coud you recommend me a ROM (WM 6.5 with German interface)?
Is there any german WM6.5 ROM which still is in development? Or in other words: is there any cooker who still is active for a german polaris rom?
thanks in advance!!!

Just wondering, does tose WM5 work on HTC Charmer? (since Charmer comes with WM5)
Sorry but the links I posted are for Himalaya devices only so unlikely to work in Charmer (though I'm no expert).
Charmer I think is a variation of the Magician but looking in that forum does not sound good re WM5 ROMs as I don't think that there is a Magician WM5 ROM yet.
Reading those threads makes it sound as if the Charmer WM5 ROM cannot be ported to a Magician without substantial work (if at all), which is what a lot of Magician threads have been looking at.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=237081&highlight=#237081
So if you have a Charmer you are stuck for the time being with the WM5.1 it came with unless anyone else knows better.

Probably most people who will pay a visit to this topic will be using their Kaisers in The Netherlands as well, so it might be usefull to share radio rom experience as well!
I used 1.65.20.29 on the KPN network (mostly around Eindhoven), but it was the worst coverage I ever had! Right now I am testing a Niki radio 1.58.16.27. Very quick GPS, good coverage, battery seems to be draining faster though.
Also I got the famous sound problem, but when I search, I actually only find topics where other people look for this problem and are being told that there are numerous topics about this problem. Topics that I don't seem to find... Anyone got the solution or topic, or otherwise the best radio in here with KPN?
By the way, I use Dutty's WM6.1 Hybrid v2 5.2.19700. Untill there is a good and stable Diamond version with the changes from the official 6.1.
I'm mostly using english roms like Dutty's, but also L26's(he's dutch) diamond...
It is possible to translate roms into another language, I believe NoThrills is doing that.
And 20.29 aint working that good for me either, 1.65.16.25 is better. But I have a problem, don't know if its caused by the radio or my provider:
often get to hear "U heeft een niet-bestaand nummer gebeld" and with the normal phone never
Do you have a different operator on your hard line? If so, what message do you get when you call from there to the same number that gets the out of order message on your mobile? Cause I think this message is something every operator sets for itself, same with for example the call waiting tone.
dutch rom
http://www.htcdriver.com/wm6-freeware/wm6-software/directory/rom.php
also includes other standard wm 6.1 roms
thnx for the nice reactions.. as already posted i'm using Nothrills V3 with KPN Dutch network, and its running gr8!
i'm also very curious what extra's are in the KPN Branded rom for the tytn2???
I'm using the V5 from Leo as well, but indeed the radio reception is terrible... often he looses connection; I've never had that before.
When somebody finds a better radio then i'm interested

I live in NL (Den Haag) and I'm using Dutty's April 29 Hybrid with radio 1.64.08.21. Very good coverage and battery, but GPS is so-so. Sometimes I have a nice fix (10-15 seconds) but for gloomy conditions that we have now it goes around 1-3 minutes. I tried using 1.65.20.29 but I'm having some drop call and sound problem so I reverted back to 1.64.08.21.
I flashed back to 1.65.16.25 and the sound problems are over.
GPS fix a bit slower, but 'normal'. Anyone has ideas about the best baud settings in our little country or with our network?

Is there a 6.5 ROM in GERMAN for Kaiser?

Hello everybody!
I'm using a english 6.5 ROM on my Wizard at the moment, but tomorrow my new TyTN II will arrive and I want to feed it with a german 6.5 ROM. It is not very convenient to use a english ROM on a german hardware keyboard...
I haven't found a german 6.5 release so far, only in the diamond forums one for a diamond. But I think it is not smart to flash a diamond ROM on my Kaiser, isn't it?
Thanks for your support!
Herbert
if you need a german rom please wait until Rom 6.5 become retail status
After release from microsoft in the second half of this year.
all 6.5 roms are unofficial and have beta or hybrid status
Is WM 6.5 in english retail already?!?
There are many 6.5 ROMs out there, and none of them is retail, as far as I know... so if there is a working one in german, please post!
I know I won't get one with support from microsoft etc...
No 6.5 roms that I know about in German, but here is ansar's latest 6.1 if you are itching to flash something different.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=463907
Well, Martiess 6.1 Opal ROM looks better to me here.
But thanks. lookin forward for a real 6.5...
Wasn't there a tutorial, how to make your german keyboard work on a English rom ???
Some registry fixxing and it should be done, but can't remember where I saw it...
Yes, there was a tutorial, but in WM 6.5 a lot of registry entries have been moved or re-moved. I couldn't find the entry for the keyboard...
Off topic: I'm working now with a 6.1 ROM and have no problems so far but with the GPS. It makes weird changes and sometimes works, sometimes not. But when it works, it sucks my battery out in no time...
Have QuickGPS, GPSGate and TomTom7.
Sounds like a Radio Problem.
But i don't know for sure.
so when will be the first final of windowsmobile 6.5 available in german?

O2 Stellar.......aka TyTn II

Hi,
Are there any wm6.5 ROM that actually work on the O2 stellar?
Basically it's very hard to find downloads that work on the O2 version, I've found a few cabs on here like Manillla 2 (weather and Youtube don't work like the Touch version) opera 9.5 beta, Total commander, Tom Tom 6 don't use Tom Tom 7 aka navigator as can only find one city map that works.
Tried various ROM's for Kaiser & TyTn II which all won't flash, the just tease me into thinking the process will complete (get to tri colour screen then error appears on PC when sync).
Only the offical wm6.1 from O2 has worked on my PDA
Can anyone point me in the right direction with stuff for a O2 Stellar model that's known to work.......cabs, TouchFlo, Cube etc
Thanx in advance

All the 6.5 ROM's on here will flash to any Kaiser (Tilt, TyTN 2, Stellar, whatever).
Sound's like you don't have Hard SPL. Follow mskip's tutorial for flashing and choose a 6.5 ROM to flash.
Most of the newer CAB's won't work on the old build that O2's 6.1 ROM update is based on. Try one of the latest cooked ROM's and then try again.
Thread Closed - please read / search before starting a new thread.

Which one please guys?

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.
