Nothing new on their website...check out the plethora of CDMA roms available on this site which already offer 6.5 (which offer more features than any stock rom would give you anyway)

I am on Sprint and use Mr.X ROM 1.6.5 and it works flawlessly and it is compatible with all original included Sprint applications.

What is the benefit of 6.5 vs 6.1? I use phb shell anyways.

there's also the belief that there will be better graphics drivers included with 6.5.

If you say it is flawlessly using Mr. X Rom have you ever tried using the HTC Messaging feature if you can send file attachments using MMS and if the other party can receive your message and file attachments? Or does this rom only has the stock mms messaging feature and not htc messaging?

What about synching with multiple computers ?
Is there a fix for that ?
I hope so.

Umm you can do it in 6.1 already, just requires a feature to be turned on in the registry.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\En ableNonLocalCrossPollination

Change that to 1 to enable. Then soft reset.

After that you want to hook up to each PC and set up your Sync from the DEVICE - NOT from the Windows Mobile Device Center or from ActiveSync on the PC. Again, when setting up the partnership you need to go through the setup on the phone when you plug it into the PC.

There is one exception to this. You cannot do Push Mail for both mailboxes if they are Exchange mailboxes. You can set up your work PC first and enable Push Mail for that mailbox. Then set up the partnership to your home PC and add your home Hotmail account separately - which does allow individual Push mail when done through the device. It sucks that Microsoft forces you to only use their services to make it work, but it does work.

Once you've done all of this you are able to sync up your Tasks/Calendar/Contacts/etc with both machines and can even use Push Mail with Exchange at work and Push Mail with Hotmail at home.

YES !!! This worked. Why Oh WHY is such an easy solution so difficult to find ?

And Why the Heck is it not included with the base ROM.
POst this as a sticky. I know I started a thread on this and no one had an answer.

I doubt it. That has never worked great from day one and I don't think it ever will. I used it for years and it was such a mess.

I finally switched to Exchange and it's soooooo much better.

I can sync faster over the air than I ever could with ActiveSync crap over USB.

And it has never duplicated, or got an error etc., ever in the last couple years I've been running it.

I believe there are free services that do the same thing as Exchange now (like Microsoft My Phone).

What's even cooler is I could hard reset on the road (or even upgrade a ROM) with just the phone and get all synced up again. Without backing up or anything. Just Sync OTA and I'll be back up in 5-10 minutes.
