diamond and WM 6.5

Hey guys, I was looking at ROMs and noticed some of them are for 6.5. How would one upgrade to 6.5 and is it that much better?

Re: diamond and WM 6.5

You can just install the rom as you would any other; no need to upgrade first.
6.5 is a lot more finger friendly than 6.1. Scrolling is much better. I would suggest you give it a shot. You can always go back to 6.1 if you don't like it.
I'm currently using Grooverom5 and it works beautifully.

Re: diamond and WM 6.5

I'm extremely happy with MysteryRom4, which is a 6.5 rom. I personally don't every plan to switch back to 6.1.

Re: diamond and WM 6.5

Im using GrooveRom4, still contemplating on upgrading to 5, but all in all 6.5 is much smoother that standard 6.1. User Interface is great, you will probably have to get used to the honeycomb start menu, but other than that i think youll find 6.5 much better.

Re: diamond and WM 6.5

I just went from mystery rom 4 to groove rom 5, I thought mystery rom 4 was wm6.1 as it is layed out like the standard sprint today screen (tabs to scroll through at the bottom)?

anyway, I'm loving 6.5, no need for the stylus anymore I think.
