Up now, mirrors here (to clarify, this ROM does NOT contain HTC Sense):

Notes:

1. Hard reset after initial installation.
2. For the full effect, go into Start>Settings>Today>Appearance after install/hard reset and change the theme from Default to WM 6.5 GTX.
3. Not all icons are skinned; see link below for the full icon set and use JWMD Icon Changer for additional customization. If there is enough demand I will release another, completely skinned version.
4. Some apps (like SMS and YouTube) don't have shortcuts in the Start Menu. You can fix this by using Total Commander to navigate to the Windows folder and sorting by file extension. Then go through the .exe files and make/place shortcuts for the ones you need. The SMS app is called Messaging Client.
5. As usual, flash at your own risk. Support for this ROM is a luxury, not a right.

Thanks to the many fine skinners whose hard work made this ROM possible:

Also, big thanks to Dark, whose tutorial and initial add-on packages made this build a possibility. Further thanks to Spocky, Chainfire, Ervius, Bepe, and the many other people who built the tools that allow non-coders like myself to dabble in this sort of fun. Finally, thanks to Kamil and [ElCondor] for designing the original GTX theme, and to ebbinger_413 for assembling many of these mods in a single thread.

Looks nice and clean King.

How's the visibility in direct sunlight?

Does the black on white help or does it tend to turn into a grey mess?

Thank you very much.

I'm happy with the readability, save for the default taskbar, which is why I included Dark Ninja's Android version. Attached is a larger version of Titanium for you to evaluate. I can't really speak to outdoor visibility, as I'm too busy cooking ROMs to actually step outside these days Smiley

Thanks so much, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. The problem with ROM cooking is that there's always something to add, remove, or tweak -- makes it hard to step away from the PC sometimes Smiley

Rom is fantastic. Will you consider doing a 6.5.5 version as well?

Thanks guys. A 6.5.5 version is definitely possible, I only used 21xxx for the memory issues on my Sense ROM and left it in the kitchen for this build. I'd need to swap out almost all of the packages so it would take a bit of time. Anyone else interested?

I'd be interested in a 6.5.5 version. The old lady is out of the hospital and I can play now.

I second a 6.5.5 version would be excellent. I am going to load up the kitchen next week on the virtual machine ( @ Fam reuinion all this week) and start the headache process of learning new things  Grin

Ok, I'm almost done with a 6.5.5 build. Hold up is the icons, which are much more difficult to change programaticallly than through a GUI-based client such as JWMD. Either way, shouldn't take too much longer.
