Just like with any software upgrade, generally it's worth it - you get new features and bugfixes, etc... Likewise, the downside is higher resource utilization and new bugs :) What's of more value in your universe?

The answer is... 47.

You'll have to try it and then you'll find an answer that you may like better.
[Touch HD General] BazBaz:
No!

The answer is 42!!!

Know the facts...:D

i think i know exactly what you mean, oh well i will have a look tonight at the 6.5 roms and see what has been cooked up. Who knows i may like it.

Does the touchflo work on 6.5 or does it use the default windows system?
[Touch HD General] chandalf:
I think that Duttys 6.5 ROM includes TF3D 2.5 - the latest - but don't quote me. :-)
[Touch HD General] d.cortez:
TF3D (ver 2.0 and 2.1) works with WM 6.5. if you don't want/like TF3D, there are several cooked ROMs that exclude TF3D.

Definately flash this, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=524032, i did a couple of months ago and been updating regularly, the speed difference is awesome.
[Touch HD General] GuardianZX9:
I have had major issues with battery life since I upgraded to the new SPL and WM 6.5.

I have noticed no less than a 40% decrease in battery life standby and talk time.

I have tried to go back to wm6.1 but still have the same issue so maybe its something to do with the SPL level?

Is there an easy way to go back to the original factory load? (warranty load)

[Touch HD General] ekerbuddyeker:
i think the 6.5 interface is awful, with icons spread all over the place. Not clean at all. i think its a step backwards. dutty 3.9 is my fav rom
[Touch HD General] A|ex:
I tried it out last night for a few hours and i have to say with the HTC touch flo and other things there is not much difference really to make me want to stick with 6.5. Ok there is a new menu system and the windows have a little ui improvement. Other than that its all the same + with the new bugs that xda devs are dealing with.

I am too going to stick with 6.1 as its been out longer and more bugs have been ironed out.

If it had some worth while features apart from ui i would give it a longer try and post bugs to chefs etc but its hard to test and continue using my phone, especially when i use constantly for call, txt, email,web and gps. It takes ages to reinstall all my apps and apply config.

The only interest would be to access the "settings" menu in 2 clicks.

But I hate titanium and their ugly honeycomb menus.

I stay on Manila.

So for me : no interest.
[Touch HD General] A|ex:
i tried it and got a little confused with the menus as i did not know where anything was, the new menu system is also finger friendly but a sure waste of space.
[Touch HD General] gerryjoson:
I agree, step backward's,like it's been changed,just for changes sake.
[Touch HD General] justwonder:
But you can organize them, using reSTART or do it manually
[Touch HD General] gerryjoson:
Ok then,an organized bunch of icon's all over the place.

6.5 seems to me,to be trying to appeal to both finger and stylus camp's,and doing neither particularly well.......TF3D on 6.1 is far better compromise for finger and stylus imo.

I use WM because I like the vastly larger amount of info that can be viewed and used on screen that stylus use afford's,bloating the size of menu's for finger use like in the app drop down menu's so that I have to scroll to find what I want and move twice as far up the screen because of the oversized space's,is not what I want....thus backward's step for me.
[Touch HD General] justwonder:
There's also a CAB makes the menu smaller too.
[Touch HD General] gerryjoson:
No doubt,probably will be one to give back the list start menu also.......question is "is WM6.5 worth the upgrade"

If they had gone back to pre WM5 volatile storage,and sped it up 50% it would for me,as it stand's,it's just the same 6.1/6/5 OS with a few more changes
[Touch HD General] A|ex:
Is there a way to change the start menu in wm6.5 back to 6.1 style? I like the scrolling and a few little effects but apart from the ui i do not see it worthwhile.

Its good to have something new and playwith but from the roms being released, the bugs still need to be ironed out.

[Touch HD General] laguna33p:
I've given up on upgrading to custom ROMs because risk of bricking the device and why put up with all "this and that" not working, "this and that" fixes and let's not forget all those irritating versions and updates..you never know which one to download. Believe me, if you happy with your current ROM, stick with it!
[Touch HD General] zolom:
Words of wisdom. Once you've entered the ROM Change route you may never be happy with the what you currently have and always be compelled to try one more. I'm sticking with my Original Rom, it's stable, although slightly slower then some cooked romes.
[Touch HD General] ozmoran:
Well thats a safe answer, even though the Original ROMS have BUGS also which is why HTC has an update page!!!!

Would you also be happy with standard tyres on your car if you drive in the snow?

ORIGINAL does not equal better you will learn much from Flashing and you can always go back
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
My thoughts on the matter:

Basically as a species 'humans' are curious and we always believe the grass is greener on the other side. So inevitibly we are tempted to try something different in case its better. Problem with this is that once you flash a rom you'll never stop and will continue to flash other roms trying to find the perfect one. Unfortunately you'll never be fully happy as new roms are released all the time.

I've flashed countless roms, I'm sure figure is probably around 100+ and I'm hooked on flashing so will never be cured.

My advice to anyone is if your happy, why change. Down side to this is......you'll get curious!!! LOL
[Touch HD General] mightbme:
Im with Ozmoran on this one. The standard rom doesn't even come close to the cooked one. It's like buyng a base model car and then adding power windows, central locking, air con, leather seats and of course a Turbo!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adigraham:
Hi all,

Is there anyway to have the same option as was with the Touch Pro whereby if a txt didn't send it gave you the link to retry?

At present I have to go into the drafts folder to send it (when it informs me it didnt send!)

Would love to try a new cooked 6.5 if this fixed it, but still in warranty so i cannot risk it :(

Thanks in advance

Adi
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathJester:
Can't you backup your current ROM and try the 6.5 cooks? Knowing service centres, all they'll do is flash the phone anyway and claim to have "fixed" it no matter what the issue was. Hell, some of the techs probably come here for advice ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adigraham:
Is it possible to backup a rom and restore even after a cooked rom has been installed?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sirchuk:
First I want to thank everyone on these forums for all the information they've posted and shared.

There's so much information, that I'm afraid I am a little lost. I've followed so many different guides to do this and that and what not, I'm unsure of where I am exactly in the process.

My goal is to have Nandroid installed and working so I can switch and check out different roms/apps/capabilities of my phone.

I have a T-Mobile G1 that I purchased yesterday and unlocked yesterday. It came from T-Mobile already updated to 1.5 cupcake. I have an EDGE data plan and not a 3G Data plan (applies to what I had to do below.)

First thing I did was downgrade to RC29. I attempted to re-activate the phone after, but I was unable to probably due to edge connectivity.

I downloaded the SDK, and using adb I connected the phone to my wifi access.

Once I was in, I followed this guide to update the SPL. I used some utility to do it automatically, but only because I spent so much time trying to get wifi to work and activate the phone.

I then updated to the latest radio version.

I thought I wanted to install a Hero build, so I updated the SPL to the latest version, this caused my phone to freeze at the G1 screen, it wouldn't go any further. Just after this I realized that the Hero build doesn't have bluetooth, and it's essential for me right now.

So as a n00b, I downloaded JesusFreke's latest US Android build "JFV1.51 CRB43 US (11733)" renamed it update.zip and did the update, it worked fine and I've been using my phone ever since (there have been several crashing apps though.)

As I said, I want to install Nandroid to make backups, but I really don't know where in the process I'm at.

If I hold down Back+Power I get the skateboard guys (fastboot I think), if I hold down Home+Power I get the recovery mode, and Camera+Power gets the SPL. I don't really know the difference between Fastboot and Recovery mode, don't they do roughly the same thing?

I believe I'm going to have to partition my SD card (I have a 1GB right now, but I have a 16GB in a photo frame at work I will get on Monday.) in order to save apps onto the SD card and still keep music on the phone and use the phone as a portable drive.

There's so much information out there to do X with Y and run Z that it doesn't take long to figure out where you are lost.

If I go into fastboot I see:

DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF

HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA10000)

CPLD-4

RADIO-2.22.19.261

Apr 20 2009, 15:30:43

Then the Menu.

In recovery Mode:

Android system recovery utility E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

Then the Menu.

Uh oh, just noticed that when I hold the camera down and power, I don't get the SPL anymore. I get the FastBoot Menu:

HBOOT

<BACK> FastBoot Mode

That's not supposed to happen, it should go into the SPL right?

Thanks a lot for the help. I hope to be able to be at the point that I can contribute or answer questions soon.

install cyanogen's recovery image. nanroid backup AND restore is built right in.

Both recovery images and ROMs are installed by renaming them update.zip?

I guess everything is installed with update.zip. That explains a lot...

You want nandroid backup/restore? Go to the development forum and look for cyanogen's pimped out recovery 1.3.1.

You need help on your spl? Same forum, but look for let's fix that spl.

Hello,

Now I am using default keyguard function.

And now I wonder if the keyguard screen can be changed.

Because the screen is very simple and it seems that the notification logo

is shifted little bit

I know there are some good keyguard soft which can change

the screen to favorite one.

But I like this simple keyguard.

Does anyone know how to do it?
[Sable] Samhain77:
It's simpler than you think:

Settings->Lock->Display: Windows Classic

;)
[Sable] G-yan:
Dear Samhain77

Thank you for your information.

It seems something different from what I wanted to do.

The screen shot which I uploaded comes from not "Lock" but "hp keyguard soft".

But your suggestion might be one of alternative idea.

Thanks again

I can not pair my BT head set i-Tech R35 Clip to my new TD2, i get to the enter password part but they do not pair off. I have put the BT head set in to pairing mode.

Does anyone have any advise to get me paired off.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tnfp:
Pairing BT

there is two places you can pair your topaz with a BT headset.

1) link in comm manager over BT, not the switch part at the far right, but the bar where it says bluetooth. it'll take you to a screen where you can pair a headset.

2) in settings in the conection tab under bluetooth (or comm manager, BT and advanced), which is a multi tab that shows you the deviced paired, connected allow you to be discoverable the ports you created etc...

my point is for headset i have had problems conecting thru the advanced menu (2) but it worked thru the Comm conection, i don't even have to enter the key, it seems like it tryes 1234 0000... so i recommend going to the option 1, and there pairing your headset.

the other thing i noticed is when you pair a device, if you got the wrong key on the first atempt even if you enter the right one after it will not pair, so the solution is pressing back refresh and connect again and then enter the right key.

at least it worked for me

cheers

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angusc:
Thanx for your guide, unfortunately it still will not connect. either option 1 or 2. I tried entering the pass code 0000 but it fails to connect and says the pass code was incorrect. If i try the option of no pass code it says it has connected, however the BT headset does not respond with hte usual 5 x flashes of the LED.

I still can not get connected :-(

I purchased a TD2 yesterday,happy with it. But for an incoming call the vibration is too soft,sometimes I can't feel it in my pocket. Is there any way to make it harder/deeper? and another thing that the battery drained out in just 14-15 hours. Though I had 35-40 mins of call,but the phone didn't turn off during calls. That might mean it doesn't have a proximity sensor for auto turn off screen during calls,it's very needful because it will definitely save some battery. Yes I know I can press the power button to switch off the display in a call but I don't wanna press it every time,so I need something which will automatically do it.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] kreator:
Vibration too soft

Try to use S2U2.

This is nice iPhone like tool I'm using to lock/unlock screen but it has a lot of useful functions, for example - turning off screen on call (great battery saving).

I can't say that your low vibration problem will be solved, but if you trying to use in S2U2 phone module, may be you'll find some suitable options for you.
