Not sure if I'm in the right forum for this. I was wondering if my 6.1 software will work on my Touch Pro with a 6.5 ROM. I've had some problems with TFDetacher so I lost it and a slight problem with WKTask, though it's functional and it's only an aesthetic problem. Was wondering if anyone knows about this or if you can post any program you've found that doesn't work. Maybe make a list. Searched but found nothing on this. Thanks for any info.

I havent faced any problems with any programs till now. I would say go ahead and install the apps and if there is any issue check the forums or raise a question. But i think you should be fine.

I know WKTask (or one of the task managers) has issues with WM6.5.

I've installed all of the same programs I used on WM6.1 and haven't had a problem with any of them.

Some apps don't use the WM6.5 native scrolling, so if something requires TouchFlo to scroll, the scrolling might not work, but the app should still work.

Trial and error it is. I've had some problems with WKTask, too. Black box in the upper right hand corner and I think it was causing my start menu not work. This thread can be closed. Thanks for the info.
