hi i hope some1 can help me . iv just joined this site as some1 told me they used this site to upgrade their blue angel to windows 6 and touch flo. id luv to do the same to mine. but i am very much a virgin to all this. if any1 could tell me where to look and the general way to go about it . i would be very grateful. cheers paul
first of all, i would recommend to look all basic facts about upgrading up in the wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
there are tutorials on how to upgrade and step by step instructions to do so.
and when it comes to picking a rom to upgrade, if you like touchflo in general, i would recommend sun_dream's wm6.1 build 20758. it has integrated touchflo cube. but be aware that this is battery draining and may be slow on your device, if you don't overclock it. i use that rom and have my blueangel overclocked to a permanent 472Mhz, which is much better now. in general i think most of the people here like manila2d or touchflo3d better, with is comparable to the normal HTC home, but animated and better personalized, as the cube is nice, and really eye candy but slow and battery draining.
when it comes to the link to the specs of the rom itself, i'm quoting sun_dream here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=428030):

unfortunately, as you can see, the links to the rom have been removed from the forum, but that does not mean, the files are removed from the rapidshare servers.
unfortunately, i don't have the actual links anymore, so probably it would be best to get it via pm from one of the senior members!
hope it will work out for you, and whenever you get stuck in the upgrading process, (assuming, you can download a rom at all), feel free to ask, i've done this often enough to be able to say, i made all the mewbie mistakes and now know, how to handle them

Uhmmm, none of the roms from sun_dream (or any rom for the Blue Angel that I am aware of for that matter) come with the cube (TouchFlo, yes, but not the cube). For some reason, no one placed too much importance in porting it to the BA. I guess that Slither2006's version of the cube was good enough so that it wasn't necessary..
Just wanted to make that small correction, other than that... good post
mmh, i wonder where i got it then, i just looked it up in "remove programs" it says "xda-developers HTC Cube" and i am pretty sure i didn't install it myself, so i assumed it was in the rom, on the other hand, i'm still quite a newbie myself, and i'm still confusing those HTC features like home and cube with touchflo and manila, if there are differences at all. i know that is off-topic and 3rd party stuff, but i gotta look it up and maybe correct the post above
a bit worried
hi there i hav just been following some steps about upgrading to wm.6. but i says it wont work on PH20A2 (Harrier) / CDMA device (How to make sure you don't have PH20A2?). when i to device info it says model number PH20B . is this o.k . i'm very new to all this.
A couple of apps I've tried on my new HD2 say I need NET Compact 3.5.
I found it on the Microsoft site but it's for a PC, not a mobile. I can't find a version that I can load to my HD2, can someone point me in the right direction please?
check tip 13 in the sticky "Leo Hints & Tips"

Quick responses thanks!!
'Was just about to post I'd worked it out for myself when I found you'd already replied,
running the download on my laptop did the install on my HD2 without any probs.
thanks again.
Glad you've solved it!

You can't get new Manila (Sense 2.5) just like that.
You have to flash new ROM...

If you have the manilla cab, you cant install that over sense. either flash to a sense rom, or flash to clean rom then install your cab. i recommend the first.
Also no disrespect to devs, but i find sense 2.5 slow on the touch HD. why not try out 2.1 which was designed for 528mhz. it is very similiar.

As said before me, you cannot change to a new manila by simply using a cab, you need to flash a rom with your desired manila on it. Use the Dummies Guide (sticky at top of forum) for step-by-step guide on how to flash a rom.
Please post further flashing queries in that thread

Hi All,
I am looking for Stock Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM for HTC Touch Viva A.K.A. Opal. I had found many threads with the link of the same but none of them are working. I have contacted HTC as well but seems like they won't provide it to me.
Anybody still have this ROM, please share the same either via a Torrent or some file sharing website. I will highly appreciate that.
I apologize in advance for starting a new thread, I found this is the only option.
