I am pretty sure PAul was hosting the official rom.

Are you using hardspl?

Ok so I performed the firmware upgrade when it was originally posted on XDA-Developers.
I was formerly running the 3.08 Vodafone release - whatever that was in aid of - so have a little experience with 6.1 already.

I have only been playing with it quickly but at the moment it does feel faster and boots significantly faster.

I have just also basically undone the HardSPL as suggested on XDA, not because I had experienced issues but because it apparently fixes issues I might experience!

I am using a v1615 but now using the stock Kaiser SPL.

All I have done so far is change many of the options to the recommended in KaiserTweak installed and configured .NET3.5 and am looking at other bits now.

But it does feel faster at the moment so hoping for the best.

Did you ever post how you did this Paul?

I got my 15 quid for signing up but now don't seem to be due anything else until September 2008
?

Same with my Voda 6.1 ROM, nothing.

Works fine on my TYTN II

Thanks Paul, just installed this now and set 3.5 as the system default... I like the way it checks your device for .net applcations, all mine seemed to be set on default anyway so now it is time to see what happens

Did they forget about us?

Yeah, I also extracted the HTC theme and put it in the Voda one.

Ok a few more bits - actually using the Vodafone ROM here and quite happy with it - as I have a Vodafone device anyway. So not using this ROM, however it is nice to be able to talk to a chef and not be screamed as a noob like xda-dev.

This seems to be TLR Kaiser 3.08.02.21 but my ROM is 3.08.161.0 (which is higher?) with radio 1.64.08.21 - things are so hectic at XDA it is easy to miss official releases. Is this your ownnaming convention?

Which OEM applications do HTC include specifically and are there any included that are out-of-date on the Vodafone ROM?
I did compare the 3.03 and 3.08 HTC and Vodafone ROMs when they came out and did make the following observations.

- Vodafone was missing Worldcard and Live Messenger
- Vodafone had its own custom dialer and skin
- Vodafone has its Business email stuff
- Vodafone seems to have an older version of Task Manager
- Misc images in both ROMs that I actively make an effort to delete anyway.
- Vodafone doesn't seem to have the boot up animation, no great loss.

Ok, I don't think that affects me.

Paul is there a way to keep SMS sent notification but kill the noise?
Always seems to stutter and sounds poor.

What does the AT&T Tilt Keyboard Fix actually do?

So it disables threaded but keeps notifications on?

Think of all the work they are putting in tho.
I am sure there will be a lovely orange start bar when you first boot into Vista and they will have removed WMP and replaced it with their own player - that alone is worth the increase but there will be so much more!

Erm, silly question and I deserve it if there is a problem but can anyone get this working correctly with 6.1?

Running the Vodafone 6.1 ROM
Apart from what was also missing from the stock rom its working great.

How would they tell you had sent 300 IMs a day? Surely its all just data usage?

Got it on my Vodafone v1615 - running stock HTC rom (messenger didn't even come with the Vodafone one).
Also left a message to some MS friends who might be able to get some information.

How do we get this? Already had 2 installed

Using the built in GPS on Kaiser.

Everytime I start though it does look for bluetooth devices, which is a little odd.

edit: Nevermind, rechecked the config and scrolled left a bit

Well I couldn't get the GPS or Phone buttons to come on

All done and working great!

Done a little more work and managed to extract some Vodafone images from a Hermes ROM and it would appear to be the same image with the same dimensions.

It also seems to have a MainSplash (as referenced from your NBH) and also a SubSplash -- not sure if that one is relevent to the Kaiser.

Anyway, hopefully something can be done
