[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mikempower:
i tried wm 6.5 and wp 7 but i stay again on wm6.5 for

Better customization

More "freedom"

more usability in business activity(WP7 can read PDF file,but can't take them from the phone e put in the email)

TOMTOM or IGO available

a file manager that doesn't exist in WP7

less Battery Draining

no necessity of been connected for transfer file

a true task manager

Better contact and call registry

WP7 is very Fast and smooth (the best O.S. for me)

more apps

and very stable.

But is not enough for make me change my O.S.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
can anybody please post a link to a screenshots thread of WP7, i would like to have a look ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] horusgod:
I still prefere WM 6.5 and obviously Artemis Rom, this now means stability to O.S. and proper operation for my HD2. New look or latest O.S. doesn't attract me until they are tested very well, with all functions running and with the tranquillity to have my phone running without unexpected crash.

I'm waiting some new Sternas' release, really interested in what new kind of magic he will do, maybe new Sense or something else? :)

Ho un sogno :D Sense 3.0 oppure 3.5 sul mio Leo

I have a dream :D Sense 3.0 or 3.5 on my leo
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sternas:
Thanks Sir, I am try for next ROM ver...

Sorry Sir, Sense 3.0 is only for Android OS

don't work on WM 6.5.5
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Hi Artemis family,

it's good to see that my last post "resuscitated" our beloved thread, at least for now :D:D

Thank you all my friends for your reactions!!! It's good to see that there are still enough people who want to stay with WinMO 6.5.x, and of course Artemis ROM, for it's stability and reliability.

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sternas:
Thanks My Friend

I will continue with WM 6.5.5, the best mobile OS until now...:D

soon, ver 65.0 Lab first news
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
You're very welcome My Friend. I totally agree with you that WinMo 6.5.5 still is the best OS around, certainly with your ROM on it. It's flexible, stable, reliable and customizable like "hell". As long as I will have a functioning HD2, it will be and stays equipped with WinMO 6.5.5 and your ROM. I need a reliable and stable phone and I am too old for eye-catching OS's or OS's that are still not fully functional.

Whenever I have problems with my phone, it's usually my SD card needing a fresh format. Battery with your ROM lasts with my way of using the HD2 for at least three days. Nor Android, nor WP7 can equal that.

warm greetings, your dearest friend Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mikempower:
maybe something about 3d interface??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nobootdevice:
My leo is 2 years old and i want to buy a better one.

I am searching and searching and...

i haven't found a better phone than Leo with Artemis :D:D:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Wanchope2k:
My thoughts exactly.

As an OS WinMo 6.5.5 is very good.

It is let down only by the App support (probably because a WinMo app has to support everything from a calculator to the powerful HD2.)

However, many of the reasons posted by MikemPowers prevent me from moving to WP7 on my main phone just yet:

- Battery drain, MAC address changes & no "easily available" iGo8 replacement.

Keep up the good work Sternas, WinMo+Artemis has plenty of life left in it yet...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
fully agree with you my friend,

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Thanks my friend, fully agree with you.

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Wanchope2k:
Dude, I think the version most people are using is:

iGO 8.3.4.117940 (Nov 3 2009)

You can find this on all of the usual "places".

You can also find lots of updated maps (I've seen world maps from 2010) plus lots of different languages/voices etc.

I believe there is a newer version of iGo released in 2011 called iGo Primo.

I've not tried this as I'm completely happy with iGo8.3.4.

Never seems to get lost & the functionality is as good as any stand-alone SatNav (even with 3D buildings within many large cities).

Gabbo
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
There is no need for that my friend! There are already lots of WP7 ROM's available for the HD2, so why bother Sir Sternas with that. Furthermore, I prefer WinMO 6.5.5 with the original Artemis ROM.

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Resonator1:
I disagree totally on that my friend.

There aren´t lots of Roms.

The best solution for HD2 atm, the "Back to the Future [XBmod-Yuki] ROM",is a solution to update your Hd2 through Zune like an original WP7 Phone.

So its Stock WP7 mostly (which worksperfect so far) BUT!!!

...even if u can apply customisations of course like new icons and stuff, there isnt any complete modified and customized ROM like Artemis for WP7 out yet!

If Sir Sternas would release a WP7 Rom, it would be for shure the leader of all customized WP7 Roms in no time...

Best Regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Alas, I disagree with you also my friend. There are enough ROM's for the HD2 with even Mango cooked in (look at the posts of f.i. sb2003).

But go ahead and ask Sir Sternas personally for a WP7 ROM. I know already his answer: WinMo 6.5.5 is the best, most stable, versatile and reliable OS around at this very moment, so he will not spent his time on that. But you can of course always try to PM him about this. Good luck with that!!

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] z_harris:
Kuzibri I agree with You my Friend,

Artemis is the most stable rom and as I remember Sir Sternas said that he has a big plan for it. 2D; 3D. So I think it will be good to wait for his future work. We just have to be patient.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Resonator1:
Well, Im using WP 7.5 very intense since I´ve flashed it last Friday, installed dozenz of free Apps and Games, and played around with the phone the whole weekend.

It never crashed, totally stable everything.

Myself Im a User who uses his phones mostly for what they were built originally - to phone.

The best "out of the pocket" feeling for that I´ve always had with my Nokia N95-8GB, which I used the last 4 years mostly even if I also own the HD2 since 2 years.

But with Win 6.5x the phone wasnt fun, Ive tried several Roms and Artemis was for shure the best.

But I never got warm with WM. Everything was too slow, needed xxx clicks to reach and so on, so I still prefered my old N95 for daily use.

Yes, Artemis is a very fast Rom compared to stock or most other 6.5x Roms.

But WP7.5 is lightspeed compared to WM.

Stability? Well 6.5 crashed not often, but it did - and I didnt use the phone very much with it. Compared to the low average usetime it crashed quite often.

WP 7.5 isnt just eyecatching effects - its really a lot faster and easier to use.

Marketplace isnt comparable to Android or Iphone yet of course, but it gets bigger daily, has very usefull Apps like for example "Whatsapp" which isnt available for WM 6.5 and so on....

Of course everyone has his own personal opinion about usability and design - but when you bring stability and speed as an argument for 6.5x its just wrong, because WP 7.5 is way more stable and a lot lot faster

Best Regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
You are totally right: everybody his own personal opinion, but to conclude that WP 7.5 is more stable than 6.5 after only using WP7 for 5 days (and hardly having used 6.5 intensively) , is IMHO a little bit premature. I'm using 6.5 since almost two years and it never crashed in that period of time. It only crashed when I did myself something severely wrong.

Regarding the speed of 6.5, I do not agree with you that it's slow. My HD2, although heavily tweaked, is as fast as hell and responds immediately to my commands and adding/creating Quicklinks makes life easier also.

Nevetheless, I'm glad that you like WP7 soo much.

Good luck with it and best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xanthrax:
hello guys ! i`m a new kid in town here and as you can see , an Android user yet ... `cause i`m seriouselly thinking to switch back to WM . i`ve been using WM on my old touch pro for quite a long time so , i`m not such a realy noob but i want you to know that one of my biggest problems with my HD2 is the light sensor wich makes my life like a hell. somehow i can controll that with android through an app , screebl pro , but still got some issues time to times. another think is that i`ve found people quite concerned regarding android security and privacy wich for me is not just a simple querry , in fact , is very important . so , regarding WM , my first two questions are (1) is the light sensor causing problems ? and (2) is here a better way to improve the security and privacy condition ?

Thank you in advance and i`ll be seeing you soon !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Hi xanthrax,

first of all, welcome to this thread and the Artemis family!!

With the light sensor of my HD2 I never encountered any problems.

Regarding security, yes Android has issues in that field, so switching back to WM is not so bad an idea. I would go for WinMO 6.5.5 with, of course, Artemis ROM flashed on it. AFAIK this a safe combination.

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xanthrax:
hello again !

i wont ask about nothing yet `cause (1) the download speed is ... :rolleyes: and (2) i`m still swimming in to this thread to find out answers and it is so easy and pleasent to do so . amazing ! i`ve got no question without answer !:) so , do not wonder why people posting frequency is low ...( joeking ! )

anyway , these days i will try the famous Artemis rom .

keep in touch !

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
good luck with trying the famous Artemis ROM!! you will not be disappointed!!

best regrads, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Ridjk:
Guys update for this fantastic rom!!?????
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] winner61:
It's not the question why but when it dies. WM is not in development anymore, Artemis did a hell of of job in perfecting WM+HTC sense but if there is no app development and the HD2 is the last of the mohicans it will not take long anymore.

If you are a business user and only use the standard stuff WM is still a very good way to go BUT ... many want the nice gimics in games and apps like whatsapp, wordfeud and many more you will NOT see developed for WM anymore. That's why it's so quiet. Many are completely satisfied with there Artemis ROM and have no furter wishes and propably even more switched to Android and a few to WP7 and be able to grow with all the new possibilities.

One example. I have a new TV and with android on my HD2 I can directly show pictures and movies on that TV through wifi. Another, also regarding my tv, samsung made an android app to remotely control the TV. Another example, SpotiMote app wich alows to control Spotify on my PC which is connected to my home amplifier. So anywhere in the house I can change the music and volume. The list goes on... I'm really sorry to say the end is near .... also because the HD2 does not have eternal life.

Still I am curious what the great Artemis can do because I think it is allready the most perfect WM rom there is. ;)

Greetings to all.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] webface:
I agree, this ROM is the best ROM there is !

I only see no LAB news and last rom is from aug 26 2011.

I think this is also a reason that this thread is not so active anymore.

I also tried android (SD) but it is not as stable as Artemis.

Sternas, keep up the good work!

regards Webface.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Hi winner61,

with these remarks, you hit the needle on the head, al least for me because I'm one of these users you described so well. I'm not into all these fancy new stuffs and possibilities like you mentioned (probably too old for that) and I'm convinced that Sir Sternas will keep on surprising us with his work!!!

hello !

i`m so close to flash Artemis rom ! and here come the questions ... ! :cool: i`ve found that i have sspl 2.08 and i know that i have to use the one from your post . i just download it but the old sspl will be erased if i just flash the new one ? how do i remove it if it needs ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sternas:
Guys,

Artemis thread approaching 40.000 Post and 6.000.000 Views ...:D

I am preparing Artemis 65.0 for this party... :D :D

just give me time...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xanthrax:
ok ... i`ll try by myself ... so , i just found how to remove 2.08 sspl , i did it and i installed 1.66 sspl and then i flashed RUU_Leo_S_HTC_XXX_3.14.XXX_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15 .50.14_LEO_S_Ship.exe
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Resonator1:
Well..yes and no..

As I said before I was also an old fashioned user...using my phone to...well to phone with it ;)

Smartphone and the HD2 looked good,so I bought it 2 years ago.

But it wasnt better than my old N95???????????????????

So I tried some Roms and came to Artemis.

It was (and still is) the best and most advanced Rom for WM6.5x

Thx Sir Sternas!

I was a bit more happier with my HD2 (thx Artemis)...but still...Ive used my N95 more, HD2 only sometimes to test and play half satisfied around.

The majority of apps and stuff u could find looked like it was from Windows 95 times (yes Im also old Kuzibri;-)..It was no fun

Since I upgraded to WP7.5 I find daily new very usefull and even free apps, games or even funny (useless stuff)...but even that is fun...cause the HD2 is finally a Smartphone now, using the power in this good piece of Hardware, which it never did on WM6.5x

Please dont missunderstand me,I dont want to talk artemis rom bad,it is the best rom ever made for win 6.5x!!!! But Win 6.5x is dead, so It would be great to have a WP7.5x Artemis;) The Thread would be crowded with thousand of ppl directly after a lab news of that....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xanthrax:

SPL-1.66 and i installed the last Artemis rom . is it possible ? ... of course it is , long as it is installed but , on installation description is written to install sspl 3/4 ...

---------- Post added at 09:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 PM ----------

... i`ve figured out now !!! my signature is bodering you guys and ... ok , i`ll remove it ... but i hope i`ll be able to have a working mobile tonight ...

Congratulations my dear friend with these upcoming records!!!

For the rest, take your time, V64 is still functioning very well. So no need to hurry.

many warm greetings, your best friend Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xanthrax:
good news ! ... but someone has to answer me ... is it ok to have sspl 1.66 ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
My dear friend,

old is a relative matter! Maybe you're older than me or vice versa (I think the last one, but I'm not sure of course :D).

As long as Sir Sternas is building ROM's for WinMO 6.5.5, it's not dead, on the contrary. You also know the opinion of our great friend about Android and WP7, so there is little chance that he will build a WP 7.5x Artemis ROM for the HD2.

If you want to know that, PM him!

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xanthrax:
sorry for disturbing you guys but , do you mind if you give me some help ? i know you are busy but , long as you are online ... i will be short , promis !

1- is it ok sspl 1.66 ?

2- if not from where can i get a new one and how ?

3- thank you !

---------- Post added at 10:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 PM ----------

sir kuzibri ... i see that you have sspl 3.03 so ... you might be the one who can help me ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
No my friend, it isn't. Have you downloaded the official HTC ROM 3.14 with your S/N fron the HTC Website? If yes, start it from your PC with the device connected to it and flash 3.14. If the flash is succesfull, you should have SPL 3.03 on your device, after which you can flash Artemis ROM.

If you have problems with flashing, please see page one for flashing procedures or PM me.

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xanthrax:
thanx ! i`m searching for it now , i thought that i did it once though , the installation of 3.14 from your web site and then i installed Artemis i mean ... anyway ... i`ll do your way

OK u are right..but thats normal to Iphone and Android users since ages. Some prgs cost money.Most are free.And if u would take a look...a LOT of prgs which are really usefull were never avail for win6.5...or only avail in a windows 95 style

And we are in the Happy position here to own a phone like HD2 which has the ability to run WP7.5x+others.....

Its not about an UI Package..Its about markets where daily

new wp7.5 apps or games are rel...but nothing new anymore for dead WM6

Everybody has it's own opinion/wishes and has the right to have it, but I do not agree with your arguments about (free) aps and dead WM6. Everybody seems to want to have all the new "eye catching" progs and or Os's, but one seems to forget that there are still a lot of people who are satisfied with Artemis ROM as it is, usually business users and for them WinMO 6.5.5 is, in combination with Artemis ROM, still very much alive, thanks to Sir Sternas.

Failed attempt installimg iGO8

Saturday, 8 October 2011 I use a 32Gb Lexar SD card that contains all my HTC HD2 applications, cab and ex files, my documents, music, Garmin GPS, your suggestion that I format my SD card is not in my dreams
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pa3x:
Check for your SYS.TXT file for this settings:

[folders]

app="%SDCARD%/iGO8"

and be sure you have your igo placed in root of the card with name igo8, or change parameter in sys file recording your folder.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Wanchope2k:
The iGo8.3.4.1.117940 version I have does not need "installing".

It does not need to be in the root directly & I doubt formatting your SD card will help.

I remember I had a similar problem with an early version of iGo. (8.0 I think).

What version you have?

Maybe try to get the updated version.

My iGo8 is on my SD card in a folder called "iGo8" (but it could be in any folder with any name).

When I install a new Artemis ROM, all I need to do is copy a shortcut of the iGo executeable into the start menu folder so it appears in the programs list.

I would recommend to first uninstall iGo & then check your "Program Files"& "Windows" folder for any iGo executables & delete them.

Then copy iGo8.3.4 to a folder on your SD card along with the assosiated folders.

I have "content", "custom", "defaults", "license", "save", "tts_log".

I don't think the sys.txt file is that important either.

If you delete it, it will be created with default values.

Mine contains only:

"type="HTC Touch HD T8282""

"sd_card_dsk_num=7"

There are a few threads in the apps forum about really detailed settings for the HD2 sys.txt file but everything seems to work fine for me without this.

Hope this helps.
