WM6.5 really slow on P3300 M650 / when ROM base on official version ?

[axelwin]

Hi,

Going through the forum, I understand that P3300 / M650 could get quite slow after being upgrade to WM 6.5 (compare to WM6 Black & Blue 4.3 for example).
=> Is it still true with the last ROM released ?

Moreover, I just read that Microsoft has officially launched today the official WM 6.5 version.
=> Can we expect that soon new modified ROM will be released based on official WM 6.5 and then expect big improvement (more stable and quicker ?)

Last point, how fast and stable is GPS on WM6.5 (using Tom Tom 7), since I am experiencing problem with my actual ROM WM6 Black & Blue 4.3 (have to "soft-reset" my HTC each time before to launch Tom Tom 7, otherwise is losing satellites after a few seconds...).

Thks a lot, Fred

The memory management with every new build that comes out seems to be better and better. So as compared to the first beta builds, the latest RTM builds are much zippier.

There are many ROMS out there based on 'official' 6.5 builds. The phones that ship with 6.5 have builds from the COM2 branch which have the old interface, but we also have official builds of 6.5.1, which is a COM 4 branch, and which has GUI improvements.

....it was also my doubt: how is possible that there are already so many cooked wm6.5 roms, if microsoft released it officially only yesterday?

Which is the starting point for this roms?
Some wm6.5 rom for developers?


Finally, one question directly for randythered:
I read on your sign that you "participate" to the project wm6.5 base...what is it?
And also that you include in your roms
RtR Base Version1
RtR Base Version 2
RtR Manila v1.0
RtR WM 6.5 Base v2.0 (Build 23052)
Which are the differences and which you would suggest to a "newbie" that is still running the official HTC wm6 rom?
Thank you in advance!

PS: I've seen also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567864
that increase my confusion :confused::(
Please help me!
:)
Thanks!!

The builds that have been coming out have been leaked out by trusted sources. Check out Development & Hacking forum.

Project 6.5 Base is what I was working on, the ROM is ready so I have to change my sig now :D

All those are the ROMs that I have cooked. RtR Base V2 is WM 6.1 Clean ROM, with minimal add on apps.

RtR Manilla 1.0 is a M2D ROM, similar to the HTC Touch Viva.

RtR 6.5 Base is a clean 6.5 ROM, with the latest build of 6.5 and very few add on apps for faster ROM.

The ArteMEGA is the latest ROM i've cooked, it's got software from the recently launched HTC MEGA.

If you want to flash a new ROM you have to unlock your phone first by flashing USPL. Then you can flash any ROM of your choice!

So, just to summariza, I should install:

1) RtR Manilla 1.0 if my first wish is to have the Manila (diamond style) user interface

2) RtR 6.5 Base is I don't care about HTC propetary interface, and I want the last microsoft wm with its features...light and stable since is a base.

3) ArteMEGA if I want the last microsoft wm as well as the last HTC user interface and I don't care toom uch about speed...

IT is correct?

Thanks in advance!!

[randythered]

Yes, that is indeed correct.

I was just going to reply with a "Yep. :)" but xda thinks that's too short :D

So, just to summariza, I should install:


2) RtR 6.5 Base ..

not quite, cause my ultralight version is speedier:)
come on randythered...i am still waiting:D
greetz

[randythered]

Hahaha I have to admit 31 MB program memory is WOW!

Don't know if I'll be able to manage that, but I'll definitely give it a go :P

[axelwin]

Thanks for your answers !

Just to know, does the release number "23060" for the ROM W 6.5 base is a good way to know if it's clean/last version ?

Do you have a W6.5 ROM with French language support to recommand (clean / stable / speedy !) ?

Rgds, Fred

[randythered]

All builds are the same, it's the cooks job to make it as speedy as possible. As far as I know, the 23060 and 23420 builds have some issues with the dialog buttons, but these have been adressed. Read the latest builds thread for more info.
