Windows Mobile 6.1 / 6.5 / 7 ::UPDATE::

[jucytec]

I tried just about every 6.5 builds and I gotta say i'm not too fond of it... I wanna see what the general public would say...

IF you do like 6.5 which Phone do you have?

UPDATE: Out of 325 people who voted...

147 is on Windows Mobile 6.5 and staying
178 in total are staying with or going back to 6.1

In other words:

54.77 % for Windows Mobile 6.1
45.23 % for Windows Mobile 6.5

On a side note... most Verizon users also stayed with 6.1 tho some did settle for 6.5

IMHO,

I can't get 6.5 to run nicely on my Verizon Gimped pro... when compared to 6.1

I tried MightRom5 6.5.

While i liked the the functionality (and i know it's still in its beta stages) i just wasn't fond of the interface and the programs menu.

I went back 6.1 with Mighty's 4R3Born.

Sorry...forgot to add that i have a Touch Pro on Sprint

I went to 6.5 haven't looked back. Innately the OS is more efficient than 6.1 IMO, keeping up a sleek look and being generally more responsive and managing the memory better.

On top of that, I use Juicy 7, plus SPB mobile shell 3 an I couldn't be more satisfied, the only qualm I have is switching from portrait to landscape takes a second or two, but I definitely won't be going back anytime soon, the start menu is better, titanium (even though I don't use it), is infinitely better than the original 6.1 interface, and TF3d is just kind of eh to me, I like the feel of 6.5 and SPB together, I really feel like ms needs to partner up with them.

Right on bother!!! Or you can load SPB MS 3.0 to any ROM and turn off TF3d!!!

phantom rom was my first, i liked it but a little unstable at the time, then i tried copper, it was nice but everytime i switch from landscape to portrait it would exit a program (maybe bad flash), then i tried 2 releases of merdins rom, decent also, but still, to unstable for me, so I went back to 6.1 and just pimped out my touch flo to this sweet alien theme, well, in the mix somewhere i had downloaded the mighty rom, I dont remember doing it but i kept seeing it on my desktop and said what the shnit, its like the GODS were calling me, so I flashed it, and WoW, its sweeeeeet, and we can switch back and forth between titaniun and tflo. Thanks mightyROM5, I will never go back to 6.1 again, or really and rom for that matter, this is the shiznizzlniiiiiit.

it seems apparent that most Sprint TP users are in favor of 6.5 and most Vzw users are in favor of 6.1

I've not been happy with 6.5 at all. I have only used it for about 2 hours total though. If I had a second phone, I might give it some more burn, but the Verizon Gimped and 6.5 just doesn't seem to tickle my fancy.

Lovin' my 21500 build 6.5 on my Sprint Touch Pro. Getting ready to upgrade to 21502 and I'm sure it will be faster!!! With 6.5 I run no manila, don't get me wrong I love Manila it just takes up too much space and slows my phone down.
