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

[PropagandaX]

You guys are mad, 6.5.x is the way it always should have been. Now i can actually operate the device with one hand. The start menu and x button on the top was inconvient. Cant even use a 6.5 rom anymore.

We get you really, really like 6.1. You can't say "What sold you on 6.5 (Besides the start menu and titanium)". Maybe the start menu or titanium sold most people to 6.5. It kind of does for me, I kind of hate the old 6.1 start menu, this one is easy and finger friendly. I don't have to pull out my stylus just to pick the program I want. Yeah there seems to be a little memory leak, but I really like the look and feel of 6.5. I've only had a SOD issue on one ROM, but other then that I haven't had any SOD issues on 6.5. I also like to kind of stay up to date, I don't like to have the same ROM on my phone for long. I like to constantly switch it up, and I don't believe too many chefs are cooking 6.1 ROM's anymore.
Edit: Here is a link from Microsoft showing the differences:

Here is a youtube video about a few differences as well:

What are you talking about?? I can easily operate my device with one hand on 6.5. 6.5.x is just a little too sluggish, don't you think?

Ha Ha guys, to all his own. Funny how everybodys experience is different. I guess android and apple folks dont have these discussions

What does the stock tp2 come with? 6.5 or 6.5x? I haven't kept up with wm since i was on android for a while.

The Stock Sprint ROM comes with 6.5, 6.5.x isn't officially released for our device.

ah got it, thanks. So maybe I should try out .x?

A girl at work has the diamond 2, and she had an option of "make the ringer and system volume the same" check box somewhere. Does the TP2 with 6.5 have that option? Or is that some other version?

Thanks!

I currently have that feature on the 6.1 rom I'm running so its not exclusive to 6.5 or 6.5.x for that matter.

Yep you have that option, just go to your homepage (on sense), then slide the bar to settings, click on "Sound & Display" (on the sense tab), then you should see an option under "Volume" saying "Single volume Use single ring/system volume", just click it on and you're set.

As for trying out 6.5.x, you can try it, but I personally don't like it all that much, but a lot of people do. Either way I would give it a try, or at least get of the stock ROM. That ROM is too slow, there are much better ones out there.

[GhettoBSD]

Well thank you and, THAT SUCKS! So only under sense can you have that option? What's up with that?????? I don't run sense so I had to enable it hahaha.

Thank you very much!

I think I will be selecting a 6.1 custom rom. thanks again!
