This new Build brings significant changes to the Start Menu button which has now been moved to the bottom and the taskbar (or the status bar) on the top looks smaller like it is on Android and iPhone. Other changes includes the removal of scrollbar from the dial pad and the refined magnified taskbar (or the status bar) which comes up when you touch on it.

These new changes have clearly been done as a part of Microsoft’s ongoing effort to make Windows Phones more finger friendly. You can go ahead and test-drive this new Build on your Windows Phone, capable of running Windows Mobile 6.5.

NOTE: Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 23034 is time bombed. You must use patched shell32.exe (download link given below) to avoid expiration of this build.

Ditto to the how do you install it bit. Does it need to be cooked into a custom rom ?

The ROM must be custom cooked to work with a particular phone. From what I can tell it is a VGA version of WM 6.5.

Thanks for the heads up anyway.

Guess we should give the heads up to those that do the cooking and see what comes back to us. I downloaded but, since can't use it pre-cooked, not much to do with it.

Yeah, I'm sure the cookers are looking for new ingredients anyway, probably old news.

I haven't seen anything posted for the Treo since 8/9 - is there anything later? I know that navenroob was supposed to update last month but that thread has been silent. I would like to be able to update to 6.5 again (I have updated to it before but there were too many bugs for me to keep it.), I have gone back to 6.1 but would really like to upgrade. Any news?

In an aside, I would like some homescreen updates.
