I installed WM6.5 on my herald some time ago (about 3 weeks) and found everything working fine... There where some problems tough but I think it was because the ROM I burned was still over the Beta. I guess the best is to try it your self .

WM 6.5 on HTC clone ?

Hello guys.
I have purchased a HTC clone also known as the HTY 3238 Model.
Basically as far as I am aware this is pretty much a clone of the 3232 Official design.
Now I have seen WM6.5 ROMS on this site for the Official 3232 model but I was wondering if anyone has successfuly put WM6.5 on the HTY 3238 Cloned model ?
Thanks very much.
Oh and if it is indeed possible could someone provide some links to what I will need/guides.
I have had a look round and I think I have found what I need but I just want to be sure just so that I dont brick my phone lol.
Btw sorry for the double post. I could not edit my post.
Thanks again.
I bought mine with 6.5. . .

Here is a link to another xda thread where a discussion about flashing ROMs to clones exists:

While it is not a Jade Clone, info is info and hope springs eternal!

While there is info about various 6.5 ROMs in that thread BUT the general feeling there is that Clones cannot flash from 6.1 to 6.5. I know because I asked the question there and in other Jade threads.
The thread about Sunno Clones has users who supposedly have flashed from 6.1 to 6.5.

I don't understand you. I bought this device with WM6.1 and I flashed on version 6.5. I haven't got any problems with this ROM. If you want link for download, I share (send) you...

I *think* he said, prior to your post that no one in that thread said that they were able to flash from 6.1 to 6.5.
Possible
I to hace the Clone and upgrades with the Smart.upr on my memory card. I did have to do a few things.
1. Small Memory card I used a 1 GIG card.
I took out the Sim card. and did it by holding down OK, Left Green Button then the power. it started working in a minute or so . IT took 10 Min to finish.
I tried all other ways and they DID NOT Work. Best of Luck...
I also updated my T3238 Clone from WM 6.1 to WM 6.5 without any problems and it was working fine.
The only problem was that I could no longer define buttons with different programs. In WM 6.1
I used "AEButton Plus" and with that programm I could do that. Because I want to push only one button while I am driving in order to use Voice Speed Dial. Therefore I went back zu WM 6.1.
Now I only have to push the ok-button a little bit longer, tell my phone whom to call while IGO is still working.

When I had problems with the ROM I had, I realized how difficult it is to try to flash ROMs and end up with a working product. As a result of that incident, I also learned that there are differences between ROMs and that all versions are not created equal or fully functional.
As a result, I now believe it is best to stick with what you have. 6.1 supposedly is felt to be better than 6.5 which is buggy IMHO. Hopefully WM7 will be better but that is a year away.
I completely agree to you. I only try to flash a rom when I'm 100 % sure it's the right rom for my device and if I have the original rom to go back.

Completely Confused.

Hi People...
I am completely confused... I want upgrade my HTC Viva to wm6.5, but all the forum of Rom have many issues.. i am not able to understand which Rom to install..
can anybody help me out...
Thanks
do like what we do... experiment.
Hi all,
I'm a bit like don_yogesh, confused!
These toys are not so easy to update... when u don't know how ^^.
A fair bit of reading will be necessary !
Cheers.
these roms id say are not worth experimenting...for windows mobile 6.5 there are no need of certain applications like htc notifications and htc volume changer<tht doesnt work> i simply dont know why in roms they are there....if they made a rom clean of those ill be more than glad to experiment
It's been long i have not posted in XDA, i have just purchase the New VIVA and i am quiet interested to know, which cooked rom is serving well to VIVA users ?

You can try PDAVIET wm 6.5 rom v25 (just go through the december's 2009 post) I find this one is functioning well in my viva t2223. Just some minor bug, audio manager doesn't work and it drains battery.
Or you can wait and wait and be left out of experimenting...which is the joy to all these moddings...
Moreover, this is not paid site which host only fully finished/bugless softwares, HELP by trying out the roms...mods and report bugs and in return you learn more and more.
Also, post any good softwares/games/themes which you have come across in the appropriate sections. Sharing is the keyword here.
Sorry if I offended you. be cool.
My greets to the mods and senior members.

Can I downgrade 6.5 to 6.1 or 6.0?

Hi all,
I want to downgrade to 6.1 or 6.0.
A certain application cannot be used on 6.5...
I inquired of the producer of that application, but we can't solve it.
So I want to downgrade.
I searched xda-developers, but I can't find.
Anyone can do it?
Just find yourself an 6.0 rom somewhere in the HD2 ROM development forum.
Flash this with HSPL and you're done.
Back-up your data before doing so, though.

So you would burn your new house and move to an old one just because one of your cupboards doesn't fit into it?
By the way, are you sure the problem is WM6.5 and not just the display resolution? Does you application work on a SE Xperia X1 or on an HTC Topaz/Rhodium with WM6.1?
This is the only ROM with 6.1 I could found for Leo, but I have no idea if it's good or what is included.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624287
as previous poster said, you need a 6.0 WM cooked rom to flash it, but as far as I know there are none in the development forum, and I doubt any chef would be willing to spend his time on creating a custom rom with an old and even worse WM.
But maybe you'll be lucky anyway
EDIT: nevermind, apparently as other previous poster reported, there IS a 6.1 rom for hd2 :-| But it's "highly experimental", so maybe not your best choice

windows mobile 6.5 from htc touch2 to htc tattoo

windows mobile 6.5 from htc touch2 to htc tattoo, whether this can work? if you can, please give me your room to vm 6.5 and how to install on the htc tattoo...

Damn it, but Android is the best mobile OS and you want to replace it with Windows Mobile? Why?

Some people prefer WM os 'cause they see it a little more "in their style"
That's not bad...
Personally i prefer Android OS but that's just me
My friend i think you can't have this done in your tattoo :/
I think it's possible ... htc touch2 and htc tattoo is different only in appearance masks, sprecifikacija them is the same
doesn't work on tattoo, different drivers, and wtf, wm sucks, even if i develop software for wm. Like i saw on other posts, if you don't like android because linux is hard, just sell the phone and buy wm phones.
so, yes or no? I`m interested too.
bobisimeonov +1
Write the corresponding winmo drivers for tattoo and then it'll work - have fun, since this is a hell of work coming towards one
dont think so
hi
guys i have Jade which has the same specs as the Tattoo and they guys at the jade section have been trying the reverse of what u want and it seems impossible so i got this one just to try out the android so i think its the same here so if u really wana try Winmo 6.5 then buy a winmo
I think its possible
I Think that it is possible to install windows 6.5 on tattoo
Here it is , but it´s in chinese but i read somewere that it includes english
My tattoo isnt rooted so i can´t try it, is anyone willing to try ??
h ttp://w ww.592zn.com/thread-68260-1-1.html
The link has spaces because i am new i can´t post links
I don't know chinese, but with google translator I found that this is for a clone with wm with a different hardware:

So, you cannot install these roms on tattoo.

You can read it here:

This won't work, you can only get bricked trying to flash it or whatever... It can't possibly work without editing anything lol
Who in the world would install windows over linux? You gotta be insane to do that!

Hello,
I have a question about having windows mobile 6.x on windows phone 7 devices. In Microsoft, or elsewhere, forum they said that downgrading from WP7 to WM6.x is not possible just as upgrading from WM6.x to WP7.
Well, since it is been done to upgrade to WP7, I was wondering if downgrade is possible?
Thank you.
You can downgrade to WM6.5 from WP7. Just flash your 6.5 ROM as you normally would through the bootloader, this will remove MAGLDR as well as WP7 and return your phone to 6.5

Nope, I think he's talking about a WP7 native phone, so no MAGLDR no downgrade AFAIK.
PS. this should go to Q&A
Yes, I have WP7 native and would be most happy to downgrade it to WM6.5. I guess that it isn't posible to do it now, because there are no tools created for it, but it would be nice to know that it just could be possible to do it.
Anything is possible with the right developers behind your phone. Cottula was the savior for our phone!

Well, I do really hope that development will go, just a bit, to that direction.

I wouldn't wait for that to happen. The WM6.5 drivers would have to be created from scratch.
If you *really* want a good WM6.5 device, get a HD2 with a good ROM on it.
Yes, but the problem is that I have already purchased the phone. I do like it, but a bit anxious for new apps. I've considered HD2 long time ago, and I always had a qwerty keyboard on the phone (Wizard, Raphael, Kovsky, Xperia X2, Touch Pro 2 and now 7 Pro) cause I like it. But, unless WP7 starts to develop, HD2 is the best possible solution.
Thank you krazyakar.
