Which ROM do I need for this:

OK, it's not another "Which ROM is best" thread, but I'm about to upgrade to WM6.1.
I'd prefer something that is as close to the original Microsoft version as possible and saw this on BGR - http://www.boygeniusreport.com/gallery/handsets/windows-mobile-61
Which WM6.1 ROM is that from? Gotta say that's exactly what I've been after but just can't seem to see anything like that in the ROM's here.
Is this version even available?

This is WM6.1 Standard Edition (i.e Smartphone Edition)
Polaris is a touch-screen device, thous it requires Professional Edition.

Crikey!
So that link I posted then goes to a WM6.1 Standard?!!
They seem to have a better system than us Pro users!

Official HTC Cruise ROM - 04-08-2008

Hi Folks,
I saw this on the HTC support website:
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=13&cat=2&dl_id=18
What's wired is that it's on the Kaiser Software Update !!!!
I've tried my serial to download this rom but ity doesn't work.
Can you guys try this out ?
Cheers

It's probably a typo, and anyways it says WM 6 and not 6.1. All files have the same date 04-08-2008 which was the day they rearranged their web site. Now the e-club is for ring tones etc, and the hotfixes and rom upgrades are moved to the support area.

anyway htc is stupid monkeys

Can somebody upload this ROM? Thanks

great idée lol i seach... my friend have Tytn II

There are currently no software downloads available in this category.

Cruise
Could anyone reach an official rom yet ?? can we extract the current installed one on the cruise and have a copy of it ??

Does anyone know what on earth is happening with the release of the official 6.1 update for the Touch Cruise? What on earth is the delay?
WM 6.1 for the Tytn II has been out for months and months now and I thought the two were virtually the same machine, just that the Tytn II has a keyboard added. How is it that Tytn II owners have had a WM 6.1 update for months now and we Touch Cruise owners are still waiting?

They are doing one phone at a time. There are subtle differences on hardware (and software) on the various phone models. Updating and testing everything takes time. You can't just slap together something, test it for 10 minutes and release the files (like a chef can, and sometimes seemingly does looking at the quality of some ROMs).
It's coming, the latest I've heard is next month (september), and I'm for one would rather wait an extra month than getting a buggy ROM. That said the only thing the official ROM might contain that you cannot already get from a dozen cooked ROMs is a slightly optimized video driver that might enable OpenGL. That's cool, but for me CorePlayer has no problems playing videos today.

The same question for me!!!

Look at this link: http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=59&cat=2&dl_id=18
When you change the id-number to 59 (Touch Cruise), it's not saying Tytn II in the header but Touch Cruise.

...and if you change the id-number to 59.5, or something other than what HTC intended, you can download the ROM that gives your Cruise TouchFlo 3D and a VGA screen

I was Wondering.....
Hi guys, I`ve been thinking about which it`s the real penetration of Polaris(Find, touch Cruise, Orbit..etc) in the market of the cellphones?, cause I think that it will depend of this when our upgrade or others upgrades will come, I realized that elf , elfin and TytNII are the most saled phones withouth mention Diamond, this implies that a Large company as HTC is will be less interested in spent hours of developing for upgrade products which are not the principal source of profits for them, that doesn`t mean that they will not do it, but I think it has sens the fact that those upgrades takes a lot time for be released.......well it`s just a thought.
I hope be wrong.

Just go over to the XDA Atom ROM Development section, you can find 4 WM6.5 version there, and by :
1) Helloworld1
2) Glossyx1
3) Tabbe
4) Searchers
All 4 are pretty stable but depends on what your requirement is, so you need to check out their threads. Basically, everything in WM6.5 works except for bluetooth as we are not able to send files out. But there is a way out by using Persian Blue or Total Commander. Another issue with bluetooth is you can only add 2 bluetooth device, after that the add device functions gets corrupted. Added devices will still function as normal, just no more additional bluetooth device after that.
The latest one now is from Glossyx1 which is base on a new built as compare to the other 3. They are all good as long as you don't over stress your Atom, as you are aware our Atoms have limited ram resources as compare to newer devices which is what WM6.5 is meant for. I think all WM6.5 have Touchflo incorporated already.
Happy flashing....

alright thanx alot

WP7 downgrate to wm6.5 ??

Is it possibile to downgrate Phone with mp7 (like HTC trophy) to WM 6.X ??

I also like that, windows 7 sucks

You guys kinda bought the wrong phone then huh?

You guys are kidding right?

what ever you think, i'm just asking.. i'm just wonder is it possible to do somthing like that.

Most likly not, this would be due to drivers not written for the hardware in windows 6.5. How people have got around this in the past is to find hardware from other phones that have run the OS you are after and porting the drivers into a package you can use on your phone, there isn't really any other phone of this type that has run windows 6.5 hence my answer.
Why do you find 6.5 better than 7, is it more software, more hacks, better interface?
Personally I find I can't do much on Windows 7 at the moment but also understand the market needs to be built, the amount of settings is very limited but that is more of a mindset.

for me wp7 is ok, not so much softwere - no problem. The most important thing for me is my broker soft, it's writen for .Net compact and i can't run it on wp7 :/

I agree,
It is really that all the apps that I had on the WM6.5 and used to no longer work with WP7. I understand that this is a new OS, but still I will agree with the people at the top. I was a little hasty in purchasing it, and in hindsight, I should not have.
Another way, if drivers are an issue, is has anyone ever tried to flash a Trophy with an Android rom, or is this completely insane?

Wp7 device HTC 7 Mozart
Q1. Is there PIMBACKUP for WP7 so i can restore my wm6.1 contacts to WP7 device? so desprate dnt have all contacts either on fb nor on any other web account email etc. don't know what to do.

Return the phone if you hate it that much, a downgrade to WM 6.5 is not possible.

[Q] How to install WM6.5 on a WM 7 Device ?!!!

Hi Everybody !
you all know how strange it might be some requests form your boss but this is the most strange one !
My Boss has a system that work on WM 6.5 only and doesn't work on WM 7 and he requested that I should Provide him with 40 New WM 6.5 devices !
you know that they are not available currently So I figured out that I should buy new WM 7 Devices and Flash it Back to WM 6.5 !
I think theoretically this is possible but have anyone tried it ?!!!
I want to Try it on HTC 7 pro Device , Could anyone tell me wha the steps I need to do that ?
any other suggested Devices ? I only want it to be New ,with QWERTY keypad and I can install WM 6.5 on it !
Thank you all in Advance.

Your only choice may be a new 6.5 device, and not much else. The HTC HD2 is still available, here in the UK, it is now the only 6.5 device stocked by Expansys on their web site.
How much longer will they be around? What's HTC's roadmap for the WinMo HD2?
Flashing 6.5 over a Phone 7 device, is asking for an expensive error.

I know that HD2 is the Only WM 6.5 device that still Availble but the problem is that HD2 Doesn't have a QWERTY keypad and the system required a lot of Typing.
Thank you for your support.

If you can't find new WinMo device with qwerty keyboard it is possible to use if the course its acceptable as an option the mini bluetooth keyboard.
