Hi guys , can anyone tell me how to upgrade the rom in vista? due to previous experience with vista, my old XDA IIi bricked due to incomplete upgrading.. ( vista blocked )
anyone can share their experience? TQ
I try many times to flah my htc under windows vista !
The process still crashing or not respond !
so i flash under windows XP. It's mor safe !
I think this problem is due to the new software of synchronisation include in windows vista.
But i haven't investigate more.
Vista
its the USB driver in Vista. It can be changed. Search my other posts.

I just tried last night to flash my device using my vista laptop and i just couldnt make it work.
The vista update utility is version 2.0x and i need a vista update utility 2.5.x or higher to update my G4 device
So I prefer flashin my device using my old Win XP. Any luck of a vista update utility version 2.5.x or higher??
I also follow the tutorial in modaco and i can tell you that If you have a G3 device using the vista update utility you wont have any problem.
Best regards.
Whats G4 etc etc ? Sorry, i quite noob in ppc..
btw, if i bricked it again? what must i do?
Did you ever tried to search for it?!

Hey there,
i've already update my wizard to wm6. I did that with XP and active sync 4.5.
but know i have a new laptop with vista . and now i want to try a new rom. but i'm not able to update because the ROMUpdateUtility doesn't work with vista (windows mobile device center 6.1).
Any solutions?

Thank you so much. You are a life-saver.
YESSSSS! It works. thx a lot
Hi Mates!! hehehe.
First, let-me thank you all for all the knowledge you share around here.
Its impressive, since the first moment I bought my (used) prophet (Imate JAMin) I spent some time reading everything here.
Well, let stop chating...
My prophet came in Portugal Portuguese, and I would like to change it to English. Since I´ll have to make everything, I´m thinking in upgrade it to WM6 or 6.1 (I´m not sure of cons and pros...I accept suggestions )
It is possible to upgrade the ROM in a pc runing windows vista??
The softwares required to do all the trick works at Vista?? (Ultimate by the way, if it changes anything)
Thank you all.
Bye.

Do you know the Version of your Prophet? G3 or G4? If not you may look in some foruns how to find out this info.
I have a Prophet G4, also used, from Spain and I setuped the following ROM and Window sMobile 6 Version:

Try this:
Virtual PC
Ok!
Let´s make a "Live" step by step.
I´m now, officialy trying to upgrade my prophet.
1st Try:
I´m using a XP pc, and tried to upgrade to WM6.
Probably, I messed up forgetting to do the Hardspl.
I thought the "upgrade utility" allready did that...
So i Got
THREE COLOR SCREEN!
After a few seconds of "OH MY GOD! I JUST F***ED IT..."
I went lunch... sad (screew all, later I solve it..)
I download NVID_RUU and restored it perfectly, and greater...
At least, now a have a Prophet that speaks english!!!
The EU-Portuguese didn´t even had writing recognition...
Well, now a have again, my fullyworking Prophet, lets go to the second round.
Upgrading to WM6!!!
hehehehe
Bye, I´ll keep you all update hehehe
Magliano
Yeah!!! I did it...
Well, even having read the tutorial, many times I forgot to run the hardspl thing.
I noticed something weird, cause the tutorial said "the progress bar appeared only at the computer".
After restoring my prophet. I runned the hardspl, just 3 minutes and went fine.
So, I runned the upgrade tool, and again all went smooth...
Now I have a fully working Prophet running WM6.
Let me ask you something.
Did you notice any king of Advantage in using WM6.1?
The phone is too slow?
I´m thinking if i should update to 6.1. Seems that WM6 is good enough, but, if i had any advantages...
Well, thank you all!
Magliano

i have already download and install windows mobile device centre (microsoft says that this software work as well as active sync in win XP) and i already syncronise my prophet to my PC.

I am having trouble installing Windows Mobile 6.5 on a HTC Touch HD. I have extrected all the files to a folder and then I have connected my Touch To the computer and have activated activesync. I have then opened up the PDA Phone Rom Update Utility and followed the instructions. The HTC Touch HD gets stuck on 0% and the PDA Phone Rom Update Utility displays an error 262-the update utility has encounterd Communication problems with the device. how can i resolve this problem?
Which Operating system are you using on your PC?
When on XP what ActiveSync version?
Did you hard-SPL the HD?
and, did you make sure your device is actually detected and installed on your PC properly?
Hey, I have encountered the same problem when I was trying to downgrade my HD from WM 6.5 to 6.1. You may try to upgrade your SPL to 1.56, then cook the ROM to your phone again. At least that how I cooked my HD first time.

Hello there.
I'd like to upgrade my HTC Touch HD to WM 6.5 from oficial site htc.com. But this WM 6.5 can be installed only on HTC HD2 from these source, as i undestand
//mhm... i'd like to put link there. "new users are not permitted to post outside links in their messages" message appears.
htc.com -> Products -> HTC HD2 -> ROM -> latest release
May be there is, some tricks, to install it to my HTC Touch HD from official source, and also get updates like for HTC HD2
Plz, help, if anyone know
P.S: I have serial number of HTC HD2))))

Hey there,
Please do not try and flash an HD2 rom to your HD, or you will end up bricking your device.
If you want 6.5 on your HD, head over to the blackstone forum, Hardspl and choose the rom of your choice.
Make sure you understand the instructions for hardpsl and flashing (it isnt that difficult really).
If all goes wrong, put your phone into bootloader and flash back the official HD rom.
Voila.
Thank You, Voila

Hey, if you want to flash wm6.5 then just download a stock rom from either Htc or from this site and away you go. lol

gotta problem flashing an older omnia i900. i am running windows 7 now and trying to use Grandprix 1.6.4 for vista, but it wont find the phone. anyone??
I never used GP back when i had one of these phones so can't help you there. What i will say is that there was a good deal of dev support over at the Modaco forums for the Omnia, so you might want to try there.

Try the xpmode in win7 or compatibility mode ...
Omnia i900 is a qbowl, is that right ? Have a look on QBowl drivers...or try HandyFaq page...
