I tried Scott's WM 6.5 beta build when he first put it up, and it loaded fine. It was not the smoothest, but it would run. But every once in a while, when I would reboot, it would hang on the first startup screen that includes the radio version, etc.. I tried removing the SD card, taking out the battery...Nothing works except the following:

1. Reset with stylus 3-20 times.
2 Reset another 3-20 times...but this time do it really fast.
3. Reset another 3-20 times but now do it slow.
4. Take out the battery.
5. Take out the SD card.
6. Repeat steps 1-5.
7. Scratch head.
8. Search online for similar issue while going through steps 1-7.
9. Face East and try steps 1-7.
9. Face North and try steps 1-7.
10. Try to reason with phone.
11. Try to bribe phone to boot.
12. Somewhere between steps 1-11 it boots finally because it feels like it.

I've left the battery out for a while. I've left the SD card out for a while. Sometimes, it will boot on the first go, just to tease me. When I hard reset, it will work for a little while, then start hanging on boot again.

I tried JD's 6.5 ROM recently, and it does the same thing. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks!
I've read that some people have fixed 6.5, but as far as I'm concerned it isn't stable enough for day to day use. I would highly recommend that you flash with another version out of Scott's kitchen. If you need help on how to cook your own rom, I am willin g to help. PM me. If you don't want a lot of help, but just want something that works fine then follow this link.

Pick the build 20764 that is specific to your carrier.
