Am I the only one who hates 6.5 menus?

[himan]

They are big and take up space. In 6.1, more menu options fit on my phone so I don't have to scroll. Also, tabs in the menus were faster to navigate.

i guess, everybody here like winmo 6.5 is way faster and somewhat stable.!

I have tried Mighty and Juicy's 6.5 Copper, SSK1.7, and cooked my own 6.5 in SSK's 1.7 kitchen. I went back to RSTG R.15 Rhodium rom, and I haven't seen a big difference in the speed between the 6.5's and Rhodium. I am also trying SpbMobileShell 3. It has alot better layout than previous versions of mobile shell. I run this and Rhodium together. I also wasn't very enthused with the menu of 6.5 .

Personally, I HATED the 6.5 menu's but I'm sure other people disagree.

MobilShell 3 is awesome IMHO. I used MS 2 for a long time in my old Titan/Mogul setups, but I got away from it with the Touchpro & TF3D. I personally really like TF3D after I installed the cfc compressed HD version with the stock tracker & five day weather. That version is fast as hell, MUCH better than the standard version (for me anyway)

I am now running Mighty 4.16 & both TF3D HD & MS 3. When my system boots up, it is running TF3D HD. I can then start MS 3 from a start menu shortcut (I use Wisbar's cascading start menu so it's one click away) & then when I am in MS 3 I can bring up TF by clicking the bottm right soft key & clicking "show today" at anytime.

Main reason SPB Mobile Shell 3 is relevant here is that it gives you the option to override the system menus with SPB's menus which are MUCH better and have none of the 6.5 Menu flaws

It's $30

But there is a 30 day trial

And honestly, how many of us would actually be able to go more than 30 days without flashing a new rom?

Easy enough to turn them off. To each their own.

Only some of the themes you select in Settings>Today>Appearance will have the 6.5 Menu's. You should still be able to use any .tsk from 6.1 and it will be that style. I built my ROM from JD's kitchen and it has a couple, like HTC Black and Sprint Default that are just like 6.1.

I think it's just a matter of personal preference. I'm sure you're not the only one who doesn't like them.

Install HTC Menus.
