did ur ppc came with wm6?

One question, I am also a nOOb
I have XDA Orbit (same as P3300) with installed Touch Flo software.
Can I install this rom?

Quick answer is......: YES
But don't forget that you will loose all your saved personal data and your installed programs.
And don't forget to read this also:

Prepare for really nOOb-ish question
I bought used XDA Orbit, and he has already installed WM6 Touch Flo.
What will be my next step, do I need only to install Tom-Oops-Black-v1.0-WWE?
I suppose that my XDA Orbit 02 is already unlocked

First you need to know what do you want to do...
Trying to explain to you, touch flo is just like a program installed with flo functions.
If you flash a new ROM, you must see if it has or not touch flo, wich programs it has standardly, etc.
Tom-Oops-Black-v1.0-WWE is not a program that you install... It's a ROM that you flash...
Explaining to you in another way...
Is like... You now have XP on your desktop and you want to have Vista. In the desktop case you have to install vista.
In the PDA case you have to flash a new ROM.
Did you understood? hope so :d

I have few problems with my O2 XDA Orbit
At least once a day I am unreachable. On Home Screen everything is normal, but people cannot reach me.
I checked for installed ROM :
WM6 Pro CE OS 5.2.162 (build 18521.0.7.0)
ROM Version Artemis Touch 3.01 WWE
Radio 03.07.90
Protocol 4.1.13.51
I would like to try new Black Ops ROM.
Do I first need to do this, or just install a new ROM

Do I need to format SD Card or not?
I there any tutorial how to install a ROM on the forum (please link)?
Sorry once again on my noobish questions, I still learning about all this.

I think it's better you run allways USPL first.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
So RUN IT before flash the new ROM!!
Since you're going from one cooked ROM to another, flash the new ROM twice to make sure everything goes ok.
You don't need to format your SD card. BUT, if you have programs installed on it, they problably will not work.
Cheers

@Zecanilis
Thnx
I successfully installed Black Ops ROM.
First I run USPL and then I installed new ROM.
Everything is OK for now.

If you have more problems with network or if your battery is draining more than usual, try to upgrade your Radio ROM.
You will not loose any data upgrading your Radio ROM and can give you better reception and less battery drain.

Can you please tell me which Radio ROM would you recommend?
Now I have installed 3.08.90

I recomend you to try 3.21.90. For me and for most of users is the best choice.
This doesn't mean that is the best for you, but just flash it and see if is good for you.
cheers

Thnx once more for you more than helpfull post.
I will try new radio rom in next couple of days, first I would like to test this one just for comparison.

Can't see HTC Home after updating

Hello,
I recently have updated my tc to wm 6.1 but after updating i can't see HTC Home anymore. In the today setting I've turned it on en the space is reserved on the screen but there doesn't apear the home screen.
Any suggestions here?

Make a Hard Reset

Thanks for you reply but a hard reset doesn't solve the problem.
Can it have anything to do with the fact that I've replaced the radio yesterday for a cracked version to install the ROM from this forum with touchflo 3D. After installing both the radio and the new rom I've ren into some problemes so I've decided to go back to the original ROM 6.1. But now I can't get HTC Home to work. I only need to switch it on in the Today settings i guess but I can't see it after turning it on. Only the space where it should be is visible.

Are you sure you are using official WM 6.1 ROM and not a cooked one?
Sascha

Yes, I've downloaded it today from http://www.htc.com

HTC WinMo 6.5 ROM Question

Does HTC's WinMo 6.5 version that I can download from their site come with TF3D? It looks like it doesn't but I can't be sure, and I really like TF3D. I'd rather not switch the entire interface for a few OS "tweaks" if I don't have to. Anyone? Can I install the 6.5 then install TF3D separately?

it comes with TF3d 2.1, if you like manilla you'll love it!

hi
newbie question: will applications for winmo 6.1 work with 6.5? For example my Tomtom navigator? thanks

Hi all,
Anyone know how I can download this W6.5 ROM from HTC - my phone is a Vodafone variant and the HTC website says the update 'is not suitable' for my phone! I've tried playing around with the serial number to try to 'fool' the system but that hasn't worked either.
Cheers,
Barry

They're all here. You'll probably need to hard-spl your device though.

All apps which run on WM6.1 will run on WM6.5, including TomTom.

[Q] TouchFlo for HTC Touch 3G?

Hi,
Yesterday I bought HTC Touch 3G (Jade) with Windows 6.5. While rest all is good, what is sorely missing, is the TouchFlo, which makes navigation super cool and easy.
I see several TouchFlo .cab and ROM files for Windows 6.5. So I have few questions about their compatibility:
Which is safer to install? .cab or ROM? I see that installing .cab is like installing a program, but what about ROM? Does installing ROM would wipe out OS? Will it make the phone unstable?
How do I ensure that ROM will work on my Touch 3G Jade?
I tried installing couple of .cab files (around 5-10 MB) for touchflo but neither worked. I don't know what went wrong.
Last question, is it worth keeping Windows 6.5? Or should I opt for older Windows 6.1 with TouchFlo? (The seller is giving me a choice).
ask ur Question in the Jade Q & A it is a stiky

I too bought HTC Touch 3G T3238+ from ebay.in
IMEI nubmer as mentioned by seller is correct when checked on several sites as well as HTC. However, most of the functions in the device are different from original HTC Touch 3G as shown on their site (HTC)! Seller says its due to upgradation of WM to 6.5 from 6.1...
I have searched on XDA-Developers.com but no skin is available that can go with this device (may be, I couldnt get proper one!)
Could experts help me installing TouchFLO in my device?

Windows Mobile Modded Rom 6.1 to 6.5

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.

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.
