Windows 6.1 Roms

latepenguin · #1 (**permalink**) 12-04-2009, 01:43 AM

I know this question has been asked before, but I've done some searching and came up short on 6.1 roms. It seems like a lot of people have moved to 6.5. Don't get me wrong, 6.5 is NICE, just feel it hasn't hit the "sweet spot" yet. I had to take my phone in for some "repairs" and flashed the sprint stock rom. Haven't had a crash for ten days now. I just miss the stable device I once had LONG ago

.

Any cookers still around or anyone know where to get some 6.1 roms?

Thanks

I'm with you! lol I customized my own 6.1 ROM. I think it is faster because it doesn't require as much memory to run. 6.5 is a memory hog in my opinion. The last chef I can remember cooking 6.1 was Whosdaman. Here is a link to his ROM thread where he has 6.1 and 6.5 ROMs:

Thx doc,
I'll give whosdaman's rom a try , if not guess I've got to go and cook my own. It's been awhile since I've done that (titan days).

Different strokes for different folks, and Vogue accomodates (except for those who wish to lug a physical QWERTY).

Just tried it, it's okay but just didn't work out too well. I even tried out some custom roms and those didn't come out how I expected. So I reverted back to the sprint stock rom. Took off the HTC home plugin and runs good enough for me. Using phonex dialer and it rocks btw

You could also try OMJ's roms. I found a couple of his 6.1 roms.

I think this is the latest one:

Funny, I tried that one too as soon as I saw the post resurface. Probably the best one out all of them. The quickmenu is pretty nice.

On the topic of 6.1 roms, I recently noticed that HTC has done some website redesigning and dropped support for most of their "older" model phones such as the Touch/Vogue, Mogul, ATT Tilt aka TYTN II, Hermes. No big surprise there, but when I went to the Sprint website for the stock rom the link to the HTC website to download is no more?? Same goes for ATT Tilt. Can anyone else confirm this?

Confirmed, I went to their site as well to look for the stock rom for sprint and its not there anymore. I had to dig through my file server to find my copy. Guess the vogue is coming to its end O.o

For those who don't have copies of the old//new stock roms.
