WM 6.1? Where can I find it? Suited for Polaris?

Hello,
Where can I find the latest and most stable version of WM 6.1 for the HTC Touch Cruise. Which version do you advice and why?
I'm new here, so most probably I overlook something. Hopefully somebody can help.
How safe is it to flash your ROM?
I like the tools you can get around here to tune your device!!
Thanks in advance for sharing your info!!
Greetz,
Michel

There is no WM6.1 for Polaris yet!

I am pretty sure that there will be more than one very soon!

Aha hah hah ... Only official ROMs is suited for our TC.
Until HTC releases it, we have to wait ....
No No I can't wait any more ....

Any chance you could dump your 6.1 ROM and post it on rapidshare?

I meant I already created a WM6.1 rom for it... it is not a ship rom. But I'm pretty sure if HTC would create it, it would look almost the same, cos I completely recreated the XIP section based on the Kaiser WM6.1 rom, updated the boot.rgu changes and also driver changes related to WM6.1.
It is completely stable until now and much faster.

Sure, but you would have to create the nbh file from a nb image... is that ok for you?

XDA Orbit 2
Can anyone please dump a XDA Orbit 2 UK Rom. Just in case it needs to be sent back for repair, as an uploaded Rom would render the warranty Void.
By the way Bepe, really looking forward to your 6.1 release. Thanks for your, and all other Cooks, previous contributions!

Was already a big fan of your Rom on the Trinity ;-)

It took me 3 days of preparing the XIP section and after I've got the device it took me more than 5 hours to really get it working (and I was the one who made Xipport.exe). There is no how to, you need to use mreloc to move all the XIP modules around to make space for the new dll's.
Better way, but much more complicated is to start with an empty XIP and add one module after another, this way it is almost perfect.

Let me add some more stuff and I'll release a beta, but right now I'm busy with getting the video drivers a bit faster. Scrolling is a mess with this device (compared with other devices with the same processor)

[Question] Manila 2 or 2.1 with Stock Rom

OK, to make a long story short;
I would love to have my original Stock Rom with Manila 2 or 2.1.
If you want to know why I can summarize in the following points.
1- Win 6.1 is a lot faster.
2- Stock ROm with Stock Radio and Stock SPL will not VOID warranty is the phone is unusable and not able to reflash.
3- Manila 2 and 2.1 has the HTC contact Manager which allow me to link my contacts on my phone with there FaceBook accounts which is a feature that I love.
So Now you know.
If you can Help me I would highly appreciate it.

I don't think there is any way of achieving that I'm afraid.
I use Dutty's v4.3 which is WM6.1 with Manila 2.1
Look at http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=526 for more info
If you flash with USPL, you can keep the stock SPL on the phone... unfortunately an updated radio is included in the ROM and of course, it replaces the original ROM.
If you're still against using a cooked ROM (you have valid reason for wanting to do so), try SPB Mobile Shell or another UI as I know with SPB, it has Facebook integration (the latest version 3.5 definitely does at least).

Thanks for the reply my friend.
I am not against cooked Roms, I actually tried every single one of them 6.1 and 6.5 Manila and Titanium.
That is what drove me to the conclusion that all I need is Manila 2.x so I can get the face-book update of my contacts.
All I really need is a fast rom and the fastest is always the StockRom which also comes pre equipped with Arabic (my mother tongue) but with all cooked Roms I have to add Arabic manually.
So what I am searching for currently is a way to integrate Manila 2.x with my stock Rom, even if I recook my stock Rom (have to look like it was Original Though). Or maybe a way to temporary disable Manila and replace needed files in the stock rom and then re-enabling it again thus will have manila 2.x.
I don;t really know but I am trying to think of something.
Again Thanks for the Help.

A little bump maybe an expert will see and Help.

There is no way to install manila as a cab. The only way to get it is by flashing a ROM containing it.

No problem. But i'm skeptical about this working on a stock ROM with Manila built in and such a low build of WM 6.1. But who knows, it might.

Wow. I didn't even think of that... I forgot what forum this question was posted in. A WVGA version would be even easier to get since it doesn't have to be ported much.... I just don't know where to look. I'll see if I can find one.

So any updates regarding porting it to Stlock 6.1?

i know.....but i'm a noob.....and flashing a rom, instead of installing few cabs, is a too great step to do.
first of all.....what is the best for my diamond. wm6.1 or wm6.5? tf3d 2.1, 2.5 or 2.6?
then....a very stable and free-bug rom in ITA.....

HTC Sense/new manila version

Hi guy`s (and girls of course)
i do have a little qwestion about the new manila version calld sense is there a cab for this ?

i hope you all could help me

p.s. yes is search the board yes i search google but dindt find an good awnser
p.s. sorry for the bad english

I don't think you can get a cab for it, no. To help you out, what you're after, I think, is Manila version 2.5 (2.1 was called TouchFlo 3D, now called "Sense" by HTC).
Have a look around and you'll see lots of ROMs with 2.5 cooked into them, you can try one of those but you'll need to flash the ROM (see the stickies for instructions).

so what do mean then if you have 2.1 sense you whant the last manila build then you have to flash you can not install whit a cab

Do you guys ever think there will be a .cab for HTC Sense? I have read about flashing but i dont feel comfartable doing it because i don't want to brick my phone.

there is a custom manila called MAx manila i installed the cab and its full screen on my TP2.. very cool..

Probably not. Sense consists of hundreds (if not thousands) of files which also integrate quite deeply with Windows Mobile. I simply don't think it can be done.
However, you shouldn't at all be afraid of flashing cooked ROMs. I was once a n00b, terrified of breaking my Kaiser by flashing a cooked ROM. However, I read, followed directions, and didn't take shortcuts. As a result, I turned out fine. As long as you read and follow proper directions from people who know what they're doing, it's incredibly unlikely that anything bad will happen. Also, most "bricks" are not truly bricks, and are easily recoverable.

ok thats to bad :S i would realy love it.
you guys are also talking aboute files that are loose.
where can i find those files ?

There won't be a CAB, but why not just flash it with the official HTC ROM? Then you get Sense without doing anything that messes up the warranty. And you won't brick it.

I see you're from Holland, so here's the link to the Dutch HTC TP2 ROM with WM 6.5 and Sense (at least the Norwegian version of the same ROM had Sense).

As far as I have knowledge, I'm having issues with 6.5.5 because you need to handle with 2 main problems:
- Some Toshiba Packages are Windows 6.5 modified versions. With 6.5.5 you have to choose, to keep them branding a 6.5.5/6.5.0 fusion or use full 6.5.5, and be aware of bugs in any case.
- We need to xip-port from another device, and that's not as easy as may seem.
At the end, we have many, MANY!, non bootable ROM's until we get something bootable (that doesn't necesarly means usable). So, that's a hard and long try-error work with many, MANY, ROM builds. Most of the ROM's I've posted worked fine on first try. I needed 9 trys to get UK rom working deleting a lot of files (thats why my manila version doesn't seem to have any ROM penality), but with 6.5.5 I've done 10-12 trys, any of them booted. l3v5y had more succes on this issue, and I don't know what happened with hdubbli and his 6.5.5 build.

many thanks for the debranded rom with sense 2.5
this one is working perfectly!
or you could try the 6.5.3 which is available on onther devices and put in the sense on top.
another thing which would be create is the new energy rom which is available on the HTC HD2
this would great if you could included this in the new Rom
i hope you can carry on with the excellent work and i hope the for the best Rom avaivale for the TG01!!!
