Poll, windows mobile 6.1, 6.5 or 6.5.x?

[eric12341]

all I'm sayin is that since I downgraded to 6.1 blackout ROM (21056) I have not had any SODs sms related lockups or missing component errors like I was getting with the stock 6.5 mightyrom FF and Sprint lovers and I'm flashing by task 29 and everything. oh and the messaging in manila doesn't freeze on this ROM. I want u or someone else to kindly list the differences in UI and features between 6.1 (21054+) and 6.5 (21889) besides the start menu and startup screen.

Like I said... This is all experience based...
I've never done custom roms... Therefore I've never experienced some of the issues you list.
I had a stable Stock Sprint 6.1 ROM and now have a stable Stock 6.5 ROM.
I don't keep track of differences or likenesses. I'm just sharing my experience.
I'm not here to debate. Just to try to help out the OP which is why I said what I said about how this thread will have varied responses based on personal experience.
That's all.

I'm not either I just want to know why people are choosing standard 6.5 over 6.1 when they're basically identical besides the start menu, titanium and maybe better flash in internet explorer. now with the older builds of 6.1 there are much more differences,ive been with the OS since the first custom rom of it was released on the Dell axim x51v in early 2008 so I know how the OS has evolved.

Gotcha.
I can only think of a few differences...
I have facebook interaction on my contacts.
The camera can upload photos directly to facebook.
I have a twitter interface ( although I have no twitter account)
Opera does not take up all your RAM
Oustide of Sense... (stock Windows Phone 6.5 home screen) Is really nice and more finger friendly.

Just to name a few.

I can do all of that on my 6.1 21056 and since IE is much more capable than it was in the older 6.1 builds I use it instead of opera as there's no need. I still have yet to find one site that IE can't access but opera can, its been mostly the other way around. the titanium screen is not that much of a selling point even tho I did like it.

[AZTECHKA]

Ok... You win!
I'm out.

jaja sorry. anyone else want to explain why you're voting for 6.5
(21889) over 6.1 (21054+) when they're basically the same. what differences do you notice that has sold you into it (besides the start menu and titanium)?

[GhettoBSD]

ok I put my vote in for 6.1 because I finally got around to install some old spb software and it doesnt work properly lol so 6.1 for me!

that doesn't answer my question. I'm using a 6.1 (21056) rom with sense 2.5, this and the more featured internet explorer were the only 2 things that sold me into 6.5 but then i got wind of the SODs,lack of free ram,missing component errors and other issues that ive decided to goto this rom im on now, the internet explorer on it does the same things and without sense the menus look exactly the same but larger in either 6.1(21054+) and 6.5 (21889) only thing thats different is the start menu and titanium.with this rom I'm on I get more free ram and I have yet to see any issues.
