How finger-friendly is WM 6.5? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I'm thinking about upgrading to a WM 6.5 ROM, but the primary reason would be to make use of more finger-friendly versions of the core WM functions. In particular, I'd be interested if the Contact edit and Appointment edit page are any more finger-friendly than in WM 6.1. Could anyone comment on this, or better still upload screenshots of these two screens from a WM 6.5 installation?

Compared to 6.1 is a lot more finger friendly
have a look on ROM developing section and you´ll see some pics of the great cooked ROM´s Chefs are working on

I've looked in the ROM development forum and there are lots of screenshots, but no shots of those specific two screens (Contact and Appointment edit screens)

I am confused as to why the WM 6.1 ROMs people have been providing on this site are so different in look to the WM 6.1 screenshots and features shown above.
Where is the new look in our ROMs?
Where is threaded SMS?
Where are the other features?
There is no big improvements in WM6.1 Threaded SMS is disabled by cookers because it is rather annoying and has many setbacks. Lets wait for WM7
Regards,
Carty..
Can anyone list what the actual differences are in 6.1?

The "new" look is a today screen on a NON-TOUCH SCREEN windows mobile device.
New things:
Faster file access.
Threaded SMS.
New Task Manager
And just a bunch of fixes here and there.

A big different to 6.0 is that you can do a Domain Enrollment. This is very interesting for big Companys who want to manage there Devices by Servercontrol. Because of that Microsoft developed a product with the name: System Center Mobile Device Manager (SCMDM) wich is released since 1st April. All devices in a company are managed by this environment.

wm 6.1 on cavalier

Hi all!
I've seen many threads about installing wm 6.1 on different devices.
Had anybody tried it with cavalier?
It seems that Excalibur version of wm 6.1 should be compatible with Cavalier.
Anybody has an experience before I start to rape my own device?
Thanks a lot!

If you try Excalibur WM6.1, you'll end up with an expensive brick!
Cheers
This is really sad the the Cavalier is the better device than the Excalibur, yet we have no 6.1 Rom. I know there are a million more dashes out there, but how hard would it be for someone to move the 6.1 Rom on the Excalibur board over to the Cavalier?
We want WM6.1
Come on all the great ROM developers- lets get WM6.1 for this great device.Any help much appreciated.
Yes please! I'd love to see WM6.1 on my S630.
WM6.1
Still nothing eh? Come on you guys- even Vox has WM6.1 on it now......

First of all, to get WM6.1 on our Cavaliers we need to buypass CID lock, which for the moment we can't do as there's no sspl or whatever for Cavalier!
Second, after the first part is done, we need to port WM6.1 to Cavalier which is not easy so basicly we need a developer who has in its possession a HTC Cavalier!
Cheers
Wow, i can't believe there's not even a hint of development yet. There's got to be some good developer out there who can cook a 6.1 rom for us!
Current problem is CID unlock.only SuperCID can flashing!!

Wm 6.5 with TouchFLO?

Is there a Wm 6.5 beta rom for the Diamond that has touchFLO?
not until 11 may, because it is prohibited by microsoft, i think
You can install yourself

Windows 6.5 and the weather tab.

Hi all please be gentle as I'm new. And yes this may be the wrong place for this question.
I have seen videos and reviews about the new 6.5 but none of them show what the weather tab will look like as I love the look of the home screen with the big flip clock and tabs on the 6.1 but they look rather plain in just text style I have seen on the 6.5reviews on youtube.
Is it possible to have the advantages of 6.5 but with the old look of 6.1? Are there any photos anywhere? I have tried to do some searches here but have not found what I'm looking for.
Just to add, I don't have one yet but looking into getting one and have read the issues with 6.1 but love the look of the 6.1 (origional Touch HD) So it looks to me that 6.5 is better but lost the look.
Please help
Thanks.

I am running WM6.5 and it is the same as 6.1 (at least from a TF3D perspective). All the tabs are the same as with 6.1. There are different versions of Manila (ie TF3D) viz 2.0, 2.1 and 2.5 which run on both 6.1 and 6.5 (although I have not seen Manila 2.5 on a 6.1 ROM yet).
Perhaps in the youtube video they were showing the Titanium interface, but you have the option of either running Titanium or the more familiar TF3D.
So yes, if you go to a 6.5 ROM you can have all of the benefits of a 6.5 ROM with the familiarity of a 6.1 ROM. Try it, you'll love it.
Thanks very much for the quick reply and clarifying this for me.
Now I just have to find a unlocked new handset for under £400.

You do not need to worry about getting an unlocked one, there are tools here to unlock the phone so that you can flash to any ROM. Read the stickies on the ROM development forum.

Hi blackcsc
Yes it's reliable I have been using it for more than 2 weeks. but it is a bit slow due to processor. also the issue of delay sounds/ringtones, but that has been solved with in this forum.
