Windows Mobile 6.1?

Has anyone heard or learned something about the new WM6.1?
Some people say that the the main changes are the following:
-Copy / Paste
- Domain Enroll in Settings (Enrolling in a domain will connect your device with company resources.)
- New home screen (pan left and right to check out missed calls, notifications like email, sms, etc.)
- Change Master Security Code
- Added text input settings
- Recent Programs when pressing Start menu
- Threaded SMS!
- When you compose an email, or SMS, and start typing the name of the contact in the "To:" field, the contact names finally pop up like Windows Mobile Professional!
- Internet Explorer now lets you define a homepage, and also zoom in and out using a nice and clean interface

as has been mentioned before, windows mobile 6.1 with the carosel thingy is smartphones, not for phones that use a stylus.

mattie's response should be in the wiki

I was going to say, you oculd do most of those things in WM5
hahaha

My Ideal ROM

hi
Current ROM 2.12.04 WWE o2. It's not bad and only has a few problems with the camera driver and an rtc error thing that happened once (VoIP) since then I have no service, but maybe out of good range (datarate). It's got pdf good PIE resolution and other things like a MIDlet manager that has a gamecanvas object which ignores most of the keyboard, and does not remember my allow connect settings. Should really be a com manager option to decide data shut off timeout.
I would like the title and menu bar to be smaller and have better document scrolling and navigation via keyboard standard shortcuts. Shift + cursor?? for fast scroll. I would like pocket office to remember my zoom setting, and they should be global.
radio: walki talki features on wifi. good use of pick up button in closed clam down way.
main rom: faster and factored for smaller cache footprint and flash footprint. Remove the empty pixels around controls. have bat level as colourization of title bar and memory garbage/heap compaction improvements. any spare flash as disk. a close timeout on applications. close button replaced by task button throughout. fewr unused msn market and searchie tools. regular button toolkit used throughout including dialer and com manager. no error when restarting gsm. multiple sync personalities to keep my data off other backup pcs and not flooding my outlook with work notes. not having to replug usb when switching ICS, acitivesync or data storage on and off. a voip config tool inbuilt multiprofile depending on network stored with number (contact groups). the outlook email is not suitable without a good spam filter so I use web email. graphiti sip and keyboard only. make it open at side on landscape view. all device export to pc so can use as softphone audio, and as big pc keyboard etc. selectable. no boot logos straight to today. a few xtra colours by using delta arround colour wheel to get all colours used in any scheme, say green look can be made a blue look by a slider.
extension rom: blank storage with inbuilt (deletable) cabs for skype and others. skype using default toolkit. dst in main rom. video calling. eTcl and some other development tools, such as total commander and pockethtml. htc network storage.
ok I would upgrade to this. I suppose a cab extractor for no desktop needed installing would be too much to ask,
cheers jacko

better subliminal advert than all this reminder that o2 and ms are the agents of the reboot

[REQ] MRU + Max Manila Integration

Hi guys.
Okay, so I've cooked my ROM, WM 6.5 28205 Build with Manila 2.5.19222911.0 and Max Manila 2.82a BETA.
It's running great!, But, during my time here I've collected a rather large list of apps / games etc that I usually end up installing. Now even with Max Manila I am still limited to 20 shortcuts on the home screen. So then I have to decide which 20 applications are the most important to have there. But what about when new apps are released? What if I want those shortcuts there instead?
This brings me to my request, I would like to see an app / service that:
*creates an MRU (Most Recently Used) list
*in addition to this list, a numerical value for each app to show how many times the application is used (for ranking purposes)
*takes the above data and integrates it into the registry settings for the 20 shortcuts on the home screen under Max Manila.
The ranking data would mean if I ran program "A" 50 times, and program "B" 20 times, then program A would appear at shortcut 1 on the home screen, and program B at shortcut 2. But then if I install a new app, that i ran 70 times, it would move programs A and B one shortcut over, and the new app would now appear in shortcut 1. etc etc.
Perhaps as a more advanced thing, an option in the program / service to allow the user to choose how many shortcuts to prioritze, in the event that some people only have the 12 or 15 shortucts, or even stock manila.
Waddya think guys and girls? any takers?

Single quote displayed in touchflo display as html code (ie & # 3 9)

Hello, this is annoying and can't find a solution anywhere.
In my email touchflo display ' is shown as & # 3 9 (with no spaces); but when I click on the message and view in Windows 6.5 mail (messenger) program, it does display the ' correctly.
This occurs in words like don't etc
Is there any fix?

[Q] don't like the touch flo windows

is it possible to change the windows back to the windows mobile 6.0/6.1 layout?
i am having difficulties with the touch flo programme and loved the older windows.
i know that the program could be switched from touch flo to 6.1 in the htc touch diamond 2.

Just go to Start>Settings>Today>Items, then uncheck TouchFLO and check Windows Default.
Windows Mobile 6 is your OS in either case, TouchFLO is just the HTC customized UI that overlays WM, as an alternative to the default Windows Today screen (AKA Titanium).

To get back to the windows mobile 6.0/6.1 layout, uncheck both Sense, and Windows Default. If you check Windws Default, you'll get the Titanium interface, which is nothing like the good ol' Windows Mobile 6.0/6.1 interface.

try spb mobile shell 3.5 it works great similar to android and very customizable very easily.

I paid for Mobile Shell and while I liked the interface and customizability, the way it displays and handles contacts made me stop using it.

I hear what your saying. what i did was put all my favorites as pictures in the contacts tab That was a nice way to scroll through my most frequently dialed contacts. There was no limit to how many you can put there. Mostly though I just started to type the name on the dial pad and the persons number just pops up and then press to dial or press open contact on the right side of the number and it opens into windows mobile contact list.
