Hello Guys,
I have a very tricky question for you, so if it is not possible to do what I want, tell me.
I work with bats and I need a windows mobile 5 device to make a connection with a bat detector.
I also have a HTC One X "global edition" and a malfunctioning HTC HD2 "Leo" that I think it that can be repaired (it fell in the water and the backlight is not working). The first one is running the newest Sense and Android 4.2.2 and the last one has a ICS ROM.
What I am asking you guys is:
It as any way to running the WM5 in the HTC One X using a "emulator" or something?
Or you think that is "easier and cheaper" to repair the HTC Leo and downgrade to WM5?
The program that I need to use is capable to running in WM6 but not in all devices.
Thank you!
Best regards,
Fred

Hello, if you need a gadget running windows mobile 5 natively, I have a HTC Universal (MDA PRO) lying idle somewhere in the house. The problems are that I live in Germany and the OS is in German. You can make me an offer if you dont mind to have the gadget notwithstanding.

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....

Really???
I myself are still doubt. about 4 hours ago, i managed to get my hand on a BB app suite cab. tried to install on my elfin, and it said something like "oem is not supported 'htc-elf'". while at that momment, i'm using the official rom from the htc site. out on curiosity i tried the 'setmodelID.exe' method i read on touch hd2. still having the same error message.
flashed my elfin with athar's, repeat the step, same. but i do manage to have the bb connect up and running on both roms.
IMHO, if somehow we can decieve the cab that our device is not elf, perhaps it would install. running the app suite is another thing.
i was actually just want the BBM thing. but i have no clue on what should i do next. hope someone here can port the suite to work on elf. it should be good. or atleast only the BBM. ^_^
anyway i'm using the ce-rom now. was liking it until i realized 'IT HAS NO OTHER Input Method other than qwerty keyboard.' can someone kindly enough to point me how to put the defaults input method like the original rom from htc?
thanks. i know i didn't help alot. sorry bout that
No you can't have BB OS, but you can have a half-decent version of Android working on the Elf/Elfin.
Hello, is it possible to put Windows Mobile 5 or 6 or 6.5 in this device? If yes,
how?
The answer is yes...
and no...
Yes you could upgrade your OS - but maybe it hasn't been done yet for your device...
So no there may not be an easy fix.
You may want to look at my thread to see what I've been going through trying to upgrade an old iPAQ:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=981868
Curious though - if I look up your device on www.pdadb.net there is a secondary search result in their repository. A WM 6.1 ROM for HTC Kaiser. I don't have any idea if you could flash a Kaiser ROM to your device which is codenamed: HTC Beetles.
There may be a reason that they cross reference Beetles and Kaiser. (It works both ways - search one and you get a secondary result for the other.) So that might be one avenue for you to explore.

No, it's not possible - hw6500 Series iPAQs never got WM5 ROM. And if there is no WM5 ROM for your device - you can't get anything higher than WM2003SE.

You can't flash other devices ROMs. hTC Kaiser and hTC Beetles are two completely different phones.
ROMs are device-specific, so never try to flash any other ROM that was not made for your device, even if the specs seems to be the same.
Thanks Spiaatie,
It is good to have someone with proven experience weigh in and help those of us who are just now tinkering with these old devices...
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.

hello xda,
i recently bought again another htc shift (long story short, $1000 x9501 broke and out of warranty from htc, got x9500 from ebay for $250, works great)
linked below are all the previously downloaded roms, drivers, etc i had from 2 years ago.
many of the links on this forum are now gone, so i hope this will help some of you looking.
size of the shared folder is over 700MB

same old, new link; https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BzqfCViUrpr6UkVkY2lTLUIxSGs&usp=sharing
You are a good guy Thank you!
thank god!
you're a life saver
i ordered my shift from amazon, 270$ and i have been searching the net for the past week trying to find these.
kudos!
Thanks a lot!
:victory:Thank you very much. You´re my life saver.:good:
I have just revisited my HTC Shift as it's been sat, folorn and alone for too long because of the tablet phenomena. This has been a great place to start for ROM's etc so thanks for taking the time to do this.
A B I G Thank you.
My Shift had been gathering dust on the floor of my study for over a year. I picked it up a week ago and looked at it in a deeply forlorn way reminiscing how this was the precursor to the market saturated tablet. A week later I have a fully functional Shift on Windows 7 and a Sony Xperia Tablet on Ebay.
A huge thanks to everyone on this forum who has contributed to keep the Shift alive.
I can't thank you enough for this. You are a life saver sir.

want to upgrade window vista to windows 7htc shift x9501
I am using windows vista and now i want to upgrade it to windiows 7 without any software removing the previous software. htc shift x9501
You mean you plan to install a new operating system and keep all installed programs?
As system update didn't work for shift and complete new installation when upgrading
to win 7 or 8 is necessary, you may try to use som complete backup and after update
reinstall it.
Dunno if your programs will run properly then...
Wish you good luck :fingers-crossed:

ok but from which site to install and i had that after installing the all function of system will work. as i had heart that the touch display will stop working
there are precise instructions in this forum telling you how to
-liberate shift
-hardSPL
-flash cooked rom
-update to Win7/win8 from usb
i know only one shift up till now who's touchscreen stopped working,
so the danger this could happen to yours is pretty small.
htc shift x9501

Maybe google is your friend...
U r the best
Thanks!:good:
