WM6.1 nothing great.....a big disappointment :(

[dreamtheater39]

Just gave wm6.1 a spin.....and what can i say :(

PROS:
- threaded sms
- easier exchange server configuring (auto configures)
- quicker, and seems stable as of now
- solves the password screen locking the start menu bar bug


CONS:
- nothing new or different on the today screen
- nothing visually different
- same old applications, same old interface, same old same old
- its just the same old wm6 people, so, if you by chance felt like your life was coming to an end and you were waiting for wm6.1 to make it on your unis and once again get your juices flowing.....forget it.
- a2dp support seems like its missing!
- "Use High resolution" in internet explorer no longer there :(
- its highly frustrating to see MS drop in the "Task manager" application from their smartphone OS and market it as an "improvement".....grrr
- a sad "Getting Started" today plugin.....please, someone give me a break!

Anyway, life goes on, the same old sorry way......photon? android? hmph....

tbh what did you expect?

This of the change as akin to winxp vanilla and sp1 not winxp and vista.

[dj_gabzz]

no kidding.. even with less things.
i can confirm a2dp isnt working eother and internet explorer high resolution isnt even there ..
the wm5 latest tmobile rom has these!!
i give them one thing though, it is snappy and seems stable so far.
seems they increased the card cache size since when you start a song in media player it starts skipping and stuttering.. well that can always be fixed later.

Hmmmm, are we talking here about the real WM6.1 or the PDAViet build ported to Universal? :confused:

The cons/limitations are probably porting problems, at the moment the few who can confirm these are midget_1990 & mamaich. Besides, WM6.1 is not probably meant to be a version upgrade but a release update (i.e. SP2 in XP). I don't know too!

[taylor_b92]

Where can I fing WM6.1?

[hdubli]

6.1 is just an update not upgrade.
What I can say is this is a build ported from a QVGA device to a VGA device.
Now pls wait for our gurus to release a complete built.
I can run a2dp perfectly, it is just a matter of porting only.
We see here now lot's of build coming..just b patient for the same :)

Well, as MS screwed up on Photon release which was to be somewhere during 2008....and because google gave them a freak-surprise with Android....MS suddenly commited for a WM6.1 release.

I thought WM6.1 will be atleast a few features intended to go into Photon to keep Windows Mobile alive against upcoming competition (Android based phones scheduled to hit somewhere in Q3).

But turns out that Wm6.1 is just the same stuff....like you said, an sp1 release!

The least i expected was a changed today screen with a new interface which i kept reading about on so many forums....turns out people mistook this from the smartphone version they saw....

Anyways, cheers guys, trying to be happy with what we've got!!

Cant wait for the **actual** roms to start coming out from all our rom gurus out here....

Cheers!

Hi Win_XP, my take on the fake issue HERE (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1863908&postcount=67)! :)

[tsoifun]

Hopefully Midget will fix the situation with disconnecting SD cards.... I'm not the one who had this problem when usual SD card 2gb is disconnected on no reasons and you have to slide out/in to get it worked...

This ROM is the fastest and the only one that doesn't have problems in its functions, never freeze and the most reliable one. I'm using it with old 1.09 RADIO ROM and battery is the same like having WM5.

You can try to argue everything, but this is really example of complete ROM.

Thanks PDAVIET.

Have you read the link I've given? Did I say what you think I said? Can you read?

I was the one telling you guys that it's not fair to say that it is fake! Read first before you judge!
