Wm 6.5?

[jwebb56]

I know I'm dreaming here but does anyone think there is a chance we'll get a ROM update with WM6.5 for the EPIX?

Man I really hope so. I could really use it.

There's a cooked ROM of 6.5 over at XDA. I loaded it and it actually runs pretty well. No crashes or stuff like that. The optical mouse has issues, however. It works, but leaves traces of where it's been. Not bad for a first effort by the guy over there.

I ended up going back to 6.1. Not sure 6.5 is actually any better if you're running a thorough shell like I am.

Can you post a link to that thread to download? I would like to try it....

Where's the official update? MS site said due April 2010? Anyone hear anything recently?

No word on the official WM6.5. Many are concluding it will not happen. As the months roll by there are fewer and fewer EPIX owners clamoring for the update and less reason for SAMSUNG or AT&T to release it.

My EPIX WM experience has not been bad but it hasn't been great either. As a result I am probably going to switch to Android or the iPhone later this year. It will all depend on the phone offerings from AT&T.

It's here. Put up yesterday on Samsung's site. Same crappy upgrade experience as the last one, but it worked. Official 6.5 running smoothly.
