I am thinking about replacing my Titan with a new Omnia from Verizon. I really like my 6.5 ROM in the Titan, so I am wondering if there is a hacked version for the Omnia.
Anyone know if there is a ROM out there? Where can I look for this (forums)? Any info appreciated. Thanks!
Many many on Modaco!

I recommend the WinMo 6.5 Rom by Sector (Version O1, Core 21232) [LINK]
Make sure you have an actual Phone-Version like DXID1! There is no Phone-Firmware in that Rom from Sector but you can flash a Rom with DXID1-Phone-Part [LINK] before you flash the WinMo 6.5 Rom.

Note that I haven't got an Omnia yet so what you you mean by 'actual...DXID1'? Is that the current vendor Omnia ROM version?
If I go this route I will get the Omnia from Verizon.
BTW, thanks for the link!!
Sectors is for the i900. You need the one for the i910.
I have a WM6.5 at modaco, and Adrynalyne has one at PPCGeeks
+1 i have used both 6.5 and u will be satisfied with either

Thanks for posting a warez site [which is illegal anyways], when he asked for a 6.5 ROM [which are available on this site].
Here's two I highly recommend. With all due respect to other ROM cooks [makers], dsixda and kancrutt make their ROMs seem professional, stable and just overall good. I am personally not going to flash those ROMs with no list of installed programs and about one screenshot.
dsixda's Onyx.
kancrutt's SX.

Hi, I've got a question...why is windows 6.5 always used as basis for romcooking? isn't it possible to use win 6.1 as the performance is better and than for example combinante with htc mega design or so as in the actual roms with win 6.5? i didn't find any stylish and well cooked 6.1 rom for opal
I think it's because no body feel like using a cook 6.1 ROM instead of official 6.1 ROM.
The official ROM always the most stable and the performance is better than any 6.5 ROM. It uses just 30% of RAM when closed manila. And it's no bug.
The thing is I use 6.5 ROM because I want to upgrade my PPC. That's all.
I Use 6.1 German and it is great looking at performance....but the fingerfriendlyness is better in win 6.5....so i'm searching for tools to improve that in windows 6.1....i think...on the opal...6.5 sucks :/ Tested mandy roms from here...but very slow stuff...

No buddy here i want to correct you that wm 6.5 is not used as base actually wm 6.1 is only used for cooking as a base rom.
What you wanted to ask is why only wm 6.5 roms are being cooked right?

You say that it only uses 30% battery then what would u say for this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=628325 which has more free ram than wm 6.1
That why I am waiting for your ROM jagan2. Because you like to make LITE ROM and I will use LITE ROM only. I love to install my stuff myself.
Not that the other M2D 6.5 ROM is not good. The other may like it.
Oh, now I am using mua30 lite ROM ^^
Are there any QVGA devices that have official Windows Mobile 6.5 ROMs out there? I have been searching but keep finding links back to here for cooked ROMs.
I previously cooked a ROM for my Blackstone but used the EXT Packages dump from a HD2 and customisted the bits that didn't work. I want to build a WM 6.5 ROM for a Kaiser and I was going to try and apply the same logic with a QVGA device if there is one?
Thanks, Andy

Hi Experts,
I am planing to purchase one windows mobile company called Digibee its from Bangalore-India. It has WM 6.1 version preinstalled in it.
Earlier I have HTC Excalibure to which I have flashed n mumbers of time to WM 6.5.
Now my query is, can v flash any WM 6.1 to WM 6.5.
Pl. advice.
Best Regards
Karan
I think you can, but first search for a 6.5 or 6.5.x rom suitable for your phone. I have a Samsung Omnia i900 which comes with WM 6.1 Pro, now I have cooked (custom) WM 6.5.3 Pro flashed on it and it's working even much better and faster than the preinstalled WM 6.1 Pro. much more memory too.
Just use the Search field for what you need
But the best thing to do is to ask the phones company is it can be upgraded, byt be ware that flashing with custom rom will erase your warranty, but I think you already know all these things cuz like you said, you've already did flashing new rom

Hello,
I have purchased this digibee (SP1 (model), 3.6" WVGA, 256MB RAM,256MB ROM,Marvell PXA 310 624MHz processor, Windows Mobile 6.1) device recently,
Is your device same as mine? If so do you have any ROM (stock or custom)?
please reply....
Thank you,
Goutham.
Request advise
Hi Karan and Goutham,
I am also attracted to this phone. I have been searching for a review of this phone but couldnt get one. Now will you pls -both of you- be kind enough to give me your suggestions for this phone, ie whether I should go for it or not.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Thilak,
Yes of-course you can go for it, you'll never get a windows mobile with good specs at this low price . Its performance was almost same as my previous HTC Fuze (Touch Pro), and it was running under Windows Mobile 6.1.I was searching for its stock ROM so that i can start experiment on it with other ROMs.
And many of the driver files in our digibee matches with Samsung i900 Omnia (Such as, board, processor (Marvell PXA31x), display, battery etc), and if I find digibee stock ROM then ill experiment with i900 ROMs.

Disappointed performance
I am very much disappointed with this device. I cannot load most of the apps found on the net. Installation is a problem and where installation is not a problem the battery heats up like an iron box and drains fast. I wouldnt recommend this for any one.
Under these conditions I dont think any modification like upgrading to WM6.5 will be possible.
This board is so confusing.
I have a HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) bootloader says:
BLAC100 32m
spl 1.54.0000
microp-blackstone led v6
I have the latest official HTC Wm6.1 rom installed (1.56).
I just want to install the newest version of the software it can handle. I understand this is Windows Mobile 6.5.
I understand there are like 223 versions with the guts ripped out so it works faster. I just want the default vanilla Microsoft version (if there is one.) It is SO confusing trying to find the right ROM.
Which one is that on this site? I.e. which thread? Just the vanilla WM6.5 for HTC Touch HD.
If someone can point me in the right direction to a (newish and not 5 year old) dummies guide to updating the spl to 1.56 and flasing to Win 6.5 I'd appreciate it too!
Edit: I understand I first need to flash to HardSPL 1.56 to be able to flash non official roms?? I can do that.
Basically pointing me in the right direction of the vanilla Windows Mobile 6.5 (finger friendly version with the big buttons) for the HTC Touch HD would help me a lot.
thanks
Anyone?
stock rom never was produced by htc in wm 6.5
u need hardspl and you can try this 6.5 roms.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26034604&postcount=9939
Thanks.. But people are saying that the Energy ROM is the best/fastest 6.5 on Blackstone..
What do you think?
u can see what i think in my last post

I used an ENERGY ROM on my HTC Touch HD (UK) and it ran the battery down in a matter of hours. It's just FAR too demanding for that phone.
kwbr Sense Edition
kwbr Sense Edition is the best.. I have been using it for 2yrs now...
