Hi all!

I have FLASHED my device like 3 times in one week. I am using Windows Mobile VI - BLACK EDITION v1.2 and I think that ROM is great in all aspects.

Now I stumbled upon this http://msmobiles.com/news.php/6155.html I know that this article has a link to the ROM upgrade but I was unable to confirm that pictures in the article = the ROM that they point too?

I really like the look of the cosmetics of this version. Is this ROM available here somewhere? The curved lines on the START button and black shiny effects are really nice. I want it!

Do I need an extended ROM that adds these nice cosmetic features? I try my best to research before asking. Thanks in advance!

None of that really has anything to do with the ROM it looks like Wisbar Advanced using a Vista skin or something which is a addon. I'm sure others probably recongize it but my guess would be Wisbar Advanced is what it is..

Ahhh if you read the topic you linked


Generally following applications tested and working: TomTom, Wisbar, Adobe Reader. Buetooth seems to work better - for example stereo Bluetooth headset R35 I-Clip now correctly pauses/plays.


He has Wisbar installed and like I said it looks like the Vista skin.

i would say that looks like a WAD skin to me... not a special rom, wad can be found @ http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/ and there are skins... good luck with it though.. i have tried it several times and always had problems, but other people seem to like it

All,

I can confirm that this is not the rom... These are third party applications.

Ilauncher
Wisebar Advance 2
Wisbar Advance Lite Skin
and a hour or so on the configuration...

Just FYI - they were referring to the XDA Live ROM in that post.

Stay away from Wisbar, nice looking but very very bugridden and not working nice on TyTns. Ilauncher is working ok as long as you don´t have a lot of shortcuts to apps on the mermorycard, with that it hangs sometimes waking up from standby

Yep, I was running that exact same theme with Wisbar v2 but it was predictably buggy on my phone as well. If you need a similiar app, as mentioned try Ilauncher instead.

I always had issues with WA/WAD on WM5. I thought I'd give it a try after i upgraded to a WM6 ROM, and WA has been running just fine. WAD still had issues, but I haven't found any themes that I really like anymore than a nice clean PocketBreeze interface. :p

Anyway, that's my anecdote. If you like the look of that screenshot, go get the trial and see if you can find the theme.
