im trying to get wm6.1 for my alltel 6800. any help please?
try flashing a cooked rom that has wm6.1 on it... like nuerom which is one that i use.
Check the Titan Upgrade forum for info on how to flash your phone. Also make sure you know the risks before you jump into it. The process is fairly easy, but bad things can happen if you are not prepared.

Just curious if anyone know if theres a way to downgrade my wing to wm5, wm6 is nice and all, but i love the speed of wm5, and i use wisbar for the themes, it just seems like wm6 bogs everything down, even overclocked stable to 276! and the system tweaked. Anyone know if theres a way to downgrade??? Thanks for any reponses!
Wrong forum.
You should go to Herald forum for your Wing.
Thread moved.
Someone correct me if i'm wrong (as I dont have a wing) but AFAIK the T-Mobile Wing came with WM6 factory installed. The only option I can think of would be to cook your own, but it wouldnt be worth the time in my opinion.
PS: Not sure if you are aware or not of the Pagepool modification which would greatly improve the speed of many OS programs. If not heres a link:

couldnt u just pay for CID Unlocking through imei-check and then flash an unbranded Herald RUU rom? that's the only way possible. a rom flash is a rom flash, even if its downgrading. I think thats the only way possible
btw Taurus since your a mod is it possible for you to sticky this:

To Herald Mobile 6 thread. Alot of people having problems, mayb they might read it and do some research and maybe even save themselves some trouble.
Hi proz, i'm a total nub with upgrading and stuff, so I'd like to ask you for some help choosing the right ROM.
I've got a ARTEMENIS with ROM 1.14.404.1 NLD. Which ROM would be good for me to update to WM6? How's the vanilla ROM like, the TOUCH ROM like and what others can I choose from? Are they all WM6 or do I have to update to WM6 first and how do I do that? I've installed USPL on it already, at least I think have. What are the pro's and con's for every ROM? What data will I lose and most important, what should I do if I want to flash the ROM?
Thanks in advance!!

I recommend you to read this forum on how to upgrade ROM on Artemis before trying it yourself.
Cause if you are not prof on this you might end up with your mobile damaged.
I know, I tried, but I dun understand

Try getting hold of the WM6 ROM from whoever your phone is branded as, eg if it's a Dopod, get the Dopod ROM, if it's O2 get the O2 rom, if it's T-Mobile, get a T-Mobile ROM - that way, you don't have to worry about the USPL first time round, or at least if you make a mess, you have something to revert back to easily.
All the USPL does is 'temporarily' unlock your device, so download the uspl and run that - if it works without problems, the ROM update works exactly the same way, just takes about 10 mins longer. If you run a ROM update, you lose ALL settings - it's like reinstalling windows on a PC - so if you haven't got your contacts synced up you'll lose them, and all applications yuo have insatlled, and any files stred in the ROM. Everything on your SD card will be OK, but you'll have to reinstall the applications.
Go to the WM6 forum and read the stickies at the top.
i have the cingular 8125 and i dont know how to even get TouchFLO on it at all...i dont know if my phone is compatible with it soooo i need some help.
Thanks
oh and i need the windows mobile 6 upgrade...ne 1 know how to upgrade?
TouchFLO wasn't meant for the Wizard. It was meant for the HTC Touch. In fact I'm almost seeing it as a waste of resources these days. But if you want, look for a ROM that contains TouchFLO, particularly TNT series, which are found in this thread.
And if you want WM6, educate yourself first on the Wiki here on this site so you'll know more about your Wizard and what/whatnot to do with it.
You cannot flash to another rom without first unlocking your wizard. Read the stickies on how to do this. Assuming your wizard is a G3 device you can flash a new rom daily once you are cid/sim unlocked...if your device is a G4 it will be more difficult. Again, read the stickies first...then find a rom you like and flash away.
does anyone have a line to a clean wm 6.1 rom so i can add my own things to it all i need is just a cleam rom 6.1 with internet sharing on it sinc i use my phone as a modem for now

I just got a TP2 and it has Manila 1.9 on it still. I'd like to upgrade to version 2.5 but don't want to mess anything up. Can I just install 2.5 or do I have to work my way up to it? Any help would be appreciated, as well as a link to the version or versions I have to use...
No, You need a rom with 2.5 cooked into it. Check out the rom thread over at PPC Geeks.

And why not the ROM thread here at xda?
Thanks for the replies. I'm pretty shady about flashing my ROM as I'm never done it before. I'm not computer illiterate, just haven't attempted anything like this on a phone yet. I have no problems with cabs or registry edits. My main goal is to get Max Manila on the phone. Would someone please give me step by step instructions with links? I just see too many version specific things and don't want to install the wrong thing and brick my phone. I have a US Cellular Touch Pro 2, ROM version 2.01.5733. I'd like to stay as close to the original as possible, just add Manila 2.5....
Any help is always appreciated...
[Edit] I do have Manila 2.1 on there now also.....
There isnt a way to "hot swap" sense because its built in to the Windows infrastructure because Sense has so much control over the phone. The only solution here is to flash a new rom. The steps are EXTREMELY simple.
the thread for such a thing is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550131
if retaining stock apps or anything is your main issue, then perhaps you can make good friends with one of the Chefs and they could throw something together for you

True, True. Nothing against the rom thread here. I have a CDMA TP2 and just like the one over at PPC. I loved it here when I had the Vogue.

That's how we all started. It's kinda like crack in a way. Once you start, you can't stop. Since you're already doing reg edits, you one step away from flashing roms. There are a lot of great cooks in these forums that are willing to help answer questions. These guys build some great roms that truly enhance the value and usability of your phone.
Heh PPCGeeks is also a good place ;p.
You could always just install the Sense 2.5 cab over your sense 1.9? I use the Sense 2.1 cab (sooooo much smoother) and my ROM has no manila in it from the start and it runs flawlessly.
Okay, I finally have the time to play with this. I think I have the files but just want to ask to make sure. When I was reading up on this before, I thought I read somewhere about unlocking you sim card or something like that, but couldn't find that now. I've downloaded RhodiumW HardSPL and Energy Ron 23121. Can someone just verify that's all I need? From what I found I just run the HardSPL while hooked up via ActioveSync, and it should go from there. Once done I open the rom file and run the Custom RUU file. Am I missing anything?
