When I ran MM cab with 21887 build, I et Manila Programs list by hitting start but I would like for it to bring up the regular Windows start menu when hitting hardware start key but I think it goes into system settings but not sure now because I uninstalled it. Again, great job.

It downloaded fairly quickly... But when unzipping it has an error in the RUU file itself.

Mal,

Thanks for the update, flashing 1.5b now =). I am curious, is that the main ROM that you still use, or are you using the new 2.5 manilla ROM that you were working on? I tried using 2.5 earlier but just found it to be too slow and buggy. I wonder, how much better have things gotten? Also, do you recommend flashing back to stock first with this update? That seems to be the new flavor of recommendations these days =P. Thanks!

No Live or Live Messenger, sorry. I think you can DL that from that Marketplace, or at least the former you can. Hope you find a solution.

My "main" ROM is whatever I last flashed with, lmao. In this case it's the WM6.5 + Sense 2.1.

I'm not sure which I like more, my WM6.5 or 6.5.3 build. Both are basically the same, but I think the 6.5 version is a hair faster, with slightly more RAM.

[Interesting fact: my Wm6.5.3 ROM beats my 6.5 ROM by a 2 to 1 margin as far as downloads]

Re: Sense 2.5 -- I get why people want it, but for me, it's just not there, even with the 1922 build. So I'll continue to play with it, but I won't be using it personally.

Should you flash Stock ROM before mine? I've read what MightyMike says and agree with him 100%.

It's up to you though. I've had 4 or 5 out of 500 say they had random hard-reset/corrupted ROM issues and they should definitely follow that advice (also have the latest HSPL). So I do recommend it, but if you've been stable so far, or have been using my ROM for awhile with no issue, then perhaps you can wing it.

It's more important to know about the "flash to stock before custom" advice then to necessarily follow it each and every time

Quick somewhat random questions, where I can find the "bubbleish" picture that you have set as the default windows background so I can set it for all tabs? It doesn't show up in my wallpapers. Secondly, what is the wm+ring...cab in the MalROM folder? Thx!

I was looking for that wallpaper 2. The cab file wm+ring is for you vibrate and ring function to stick after a soft reset.

Mal, noticed a bug today and I don't know if this has been brought up before or not. When exiting the camera app to go back to the homescreen it does not appear on the list of running tasks anymore on the taskbar for 6.5.3. However, when using a secondary task manager program I have it looks like the app is indeed still running. Dunno if this same thing is happening with other apps too, but I thought I would bring it to your attention. Thanks.
