** Alright guys, i'm sorry to tell but i'm ceasing WM6.5 development until HTC releases an official WM6.5 rom (either it be Topaz, Tachi or Rhodium)
I'm now focusing on creating a more stable, day-to-day usable WM6.1 ROM called Gen.Y D2. Once the WM6.5 rom is out, it will be released in that thread. Hope u like what u saw here, u can always use the kitchen to update builds etc.

IMPORTANT:

* If for some reason you can't access WiFi option in CommManager, either hard reset OR enable WiFi once through settings->connection and then soft reset

Known issues:
- EzInput 2 SIP Menu isn't working (to change to Phone Keypad, install the attached cab and soft reset. To revert back to Full QWERTY, uninstall and soft reset)
- To change xt9 language, see this post
- Call buttons within Manila don't work (requires Topaz Phonecanvas, which isn't ported yet to VGA)
- Minor scroll issues (can't scroll to bottom) in Contact Card (Call Log and Delete/Forward Messages) & World Clock view
- Click on missed call in notification screen takes you to the windows default call log
- Clicking on All Settings in the Settings Tab takes you to Connections setting
- Clicking "Send Contact By Message" in contact card crashes/restarts TF3D2

Great news, can't wait to try it out.

Now, this might be really cheeky ... but is there any chance of you posting your kitchen .erv file? So I might get better at figuring out how to cook my own roms?

Hi,

I suggest you include HTC phone canvas (slide2answer and with In-Call-Curtain) in this ROM. Though phone canvas conflicts with WM6.5 home screen lock, one can disable it with AdvancedConfig. Or you can set it as disabled by default, a user can enable it if he wants to use it (e.g. me :D).

Looking forward to your ROM! Greetings from Maastricht.

Slide to answer is a definate. lol.

Thanks, I will help test this ROM.

A few questions.

1) Can you call from the New Contact Card?

2) Is this ROM sluggish (in terms of the new xbmod rhodium). I added the port to a much older ROM I had and it didnt work too well, so I scrapped using xbmods rhodium until a final stable release came out.

1) you can't, it requires the new Topaz/Tachi Phonecanvas which hasn't been ported to VGA yet

2) well it works pretty good, perhaps even faster than Diamond manila

just letting know that the ROM is almost ready to be released, i'm going to test it for a couple hours to see the effect on RAM, release will probably be this evening

@yozgatg: You da man!

I've been dreaming about a WM 6.5 and TF3D2 rom all in one. This seems like the best of both worlds because while TF3D2 skins most of WM 6.1, the places it leaves out are the old Windows 3.1 style and 6.5 brings a nicer GUI and some nice enhancements too!

I hope your test are successful because I would love to throw this onto my diamond asap. Backing up my old files now just in case! :)
