Guest toxik Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 Hey guys, I was looking for threaded SMS apps for my Blackjack ii. From what I read there's no stable ones out right now.... I did read that WinMo 6.1 will include threaded SMS, and I much rather just wait for that. But does anyone know if Windows Mobile 6.1 will be available for Blackjack II? I couldnt find any info on it.
Guest thelostsoul Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 Microsoft "promised" it, but apparently, WM6 was "promised" for the Blackjack 1 and that never happened, so don't expect it for several months, but don't count on it either....

Yeah but doesnt the new Moto Q already have WinMo 6.1? Why wouldn't they release it for BJII? Or, can someone recommend me a threaded SMS app they tested on their BJII?

Or, can someone recommend me a threaded SMS app they tested on their BJII? No devices have WM6.1 yet. Like I said, don't expect it for another few months, if that at all. And sorry, someone else will have to help ya with the threaded SMS....never found that a necessary feature....
Guest Neil5459 Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 Theres a lot of confusion between WM6.1 and Office 6.1 :) Even some of the press releases are getting it wrong. Office 6.1 is available in current new devices and ROM updates, so thta is probably what the MotoQ has. Don't expect WM6.1 devices before late spring.summer, and don't expect ROM updates at all :D
Guest thnkwhatyouthnk Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 I think he's talking about the, as-yet unreleased Q9 that also supposedly has wifi the TheBoyGenius covered last month. Here's the link. Some people tried commenting that this was a photoshop job, but they later posted a video and pictures detailing WM 6.1 and the new Q9. Pretty sweet, but most are saying we won't see it til the summer and I would have to agree.

Yes, an individual, unreleased device had a private installation of WM6.1, but there are still no currently available devices with WM6.1. The biggest things about 6.1 that I'm looking forward to are the native copy and paste functions and the new version of Pocket Internet Explorer (with Opera Mini 4 styled zoom).
Guest ice5192 Posted January 26, 2008 Report Posted January 26, 2008 i hope the make it public for us users ata told me word and office would work on my phone it does not ...
Guest quksilver Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 Umm, Samsung just released an update to WM6 for the BlackJack I. http://www.mobileburn.com/news.jsp?Id=4028...rce=SIDEBARHOME

Guest quksilver Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 We aren't discussing WM6 or the BJ1. Thank you and goodnight. I apologize for confusing you. I was replying to thelostsoul, who said that no WM6 upgrade had been released for the BJ1. Thank you, and please read the thread before being so rude. Now, as for one of the original questions, I've looked around for a threaded SMS app that works similar to the one on my Palm Treo 650, but haven't come up with anything yet. I used IMSMS for a day or so, but the layout just annoyed me. At the moment, I'm using SMS Threader from trianglepowers.com. It's alright, but I'd ditch it if something better came along. I've downloaded some other apps, but haven't gotten around to trying them yet. If you feel like experimenting, try searching for "shogun_cingy_Threaded", "xtext102sp", "threader6standard", or "ExtremeTextSetup102" (prolly the same as xtext102sp). Cheers,

Guest SCMOMO Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 A co-worker has the "htc titan verizon xv 6800" and just got the WM 6.1 upgrade. So updates are out there...

I am waiting on this too. I have a Treo 750 as well, for which I found a nice 6.1 ROM on xda developers. Can't wait for the BJ2 rom. Engadget had an article about an unofficial BJ (not 2) WM6.1 rom, so I am sure this will be happening as well. FYI April 1 is supposed to be the original release for WM6.1 (unless it is a April Fools joke by MS!) Tarun

Ive been looking at different cooked 6.1 roms but havent found one i feel comfortable flashing to my bj2. keep your fingers x'ed that we arent being effed with by m$. 6.1 FOR BJ2 PLEASE. the threaded looks great plus i hear its a lot smoother and more responsive. If BJ1 can get a smooth 6.1 it should work great on the BJ2.
