Re: Using a 6.1 theme on 6.5.3?

Me too. Having to scroll for the desired menu choice is not as good as having it there ready to quickly tap. Those spread-out menu's are needed for capacitive screens, but our good old resistive digitizer screens can work with pinpoint accuracy.

You may be able to fix parts of your old theme to work better with your 6.5 rom via registry edits. Look for your themes (both the 6.1 & 6.5) in:

HKCU > Software > Microsoft > Today

There may be things you can control via trial & error. Also, there are old CABs around that tweek themes. And ultimately, you can create your own. For me, too many things about all 6.5's are just not worth it. I've gone back to the last (pause of silence) very last, Wm6.1 build, here:

SYS base 21057 ALL Res. 6.1....wait, WHAT? - Page 3 - PPCKitchen

Hopefully somebody here will be able to give more specific help.
