Why Aren't People Using WM5?

i build most of my stuff into the rom. the personal oemizer (many kudos) is a big help. it may just be me but it seems like the programs use less when they're built in. dunno

yeh i flashed helmi's wm6 rom from the kitchen and have a few programs and i always have about 24 - 30 mb free in my program memory. when i had wm5, it was a little faster starting up but slower....waaaay slower when it came to running apps, button response, and even using the phone and keyboard. And i switch to landscape in roughly a second. hardly any lag

i want the windows mobile 10 with the advanced brain intergration systems. Basically it will do whatever i want it to simply by just thinking it. So if i am think that someone is a @$$ then it will send a text message to that person saying so. If i think i want to listen to Bach #6 then it will play it. I also cant wait to see how the advanced logic systems works were it basically thinks what i want it to do before i even knowe what i want it to do. For example if it sees me calling someone and leaving very hurtfull messages and curse words then it will do just that based on my previous behaviour! By the way my phone made this posting and not me at least i think so,

What about winking to control commands?

I loved sampsons WM5 rom. Boots fast, runs faster than WM6 and has plenty of memory to spare. I could even use Picsel (the memory hog) with no out of memory errors. youtube videos worked. All was well and good...... UNTIL I TRIED TO MAKE MY SDHC 6GB card work... no drivers nothing. Data was only partially accessible. I wanted to have GPS on, Rev A and use 6GB and higher micro SD cards. So I went back to flashing ROMS and settled on No2Chems NueRom2 WM6.1. Fast, uses memory up faster, but rarely get memory out errors. Picsel no longer works, but my download speeds are >1.35 Mbps, GPS works great with Iguidance 4 on my memory card. So a compromise.

I would happily go back to WM5 if SDHC driver, Rev A and GPS functionality were built into the ROM.

That's because the program sucks. Programs shouldn't check reported free memory, they should just take what they need and let Windows worry about free ram. That is, after all, the whole point of it.

Id say half the time i had to reset the phone to use gps even after cleaning with BOTH memmaid and oxios. By that time i was already on the road and said screw it and didnt even bother with the gps. IMO gps is useless feature if the nav program wont even run because of too little memory. Ill wait for gps update for the Touch and have it how I need it to be. I refuse to pay another $100-150 for new gps software for a phone that in underpowered due to HTC's undersight. I just got my money back by selling it for the same price and no harm no foul. But i will never buy another 64mb wm6 device ever again, even if it was free. theyre unusable in my personal opinion how i use it

Hah, iGo was ****ty in that regard. I got OnCourse (actually, a slightly updated version of iGo) and it starts fine, even with 8MB free.

Hmm, is there a way to use WM5 but still use the 3.35 radio?
