I upgraded to WM6 and things appeared to go smoothly.
However, whenever I reset my phone and it turns on I get an error that says:
"The update cannot be applied to this device because the software on the device is newer than the update version."
I am missing the MSN icon and no longer can access my hotmail email like I used to.
Any idea how I can debug this? Also, any chance I can go back to WM5?
TIA.
Found the resolution

1st things first complete noob i apologize for any stupidity in the following post. Right i have faria wm6 ROM on my phone it is unlocked and i did all the steps to installing as to the instructions on this forum. Now heres wots happening my device will not load past the boot screen where it says windows mobile unless i take the battery out, now i thought it might be because of the new american dst so i ran the microsoft cab to patch it up. Well no luck there i sync my time it lags so much so i take the battery out it resets to feb 2006 and it's fine. Also active sync is a pain when you click sync the bar comes up at the bottom and thats it no roatating arrows the softkey does not change to stop. Also when i configure my exchange it says message format and i can change to plain txt or html well wen i first used it i could change it to html but now its stuck on plain txt but i dont know whether thats a setting my exchange provider has to change on there sever - i dunno. But it all seems to revolve around active sync and the devices time. Please help or point me in the right direction because i would hate to go back to t-mobiles rom which is boring!
Any help much appreciated
P.S sorry if this has been posted many a time maybe looked in wrong place but plz post link.

This post makes no sense to me. First you say you can't boot past the 3rd splash screen (Windows MObile 6). Then you start talking about doing cab files and other stuff (which indicates you are past this screen and working on your device).
Please take a breath and give us more information and full details of exactly where you are at. You also have to tell us your current IPL, SPL, and OS versions that show when you boot the phone (we need exact numbers to be able to help). Is your phone a G3 or G4? What is the last / current ROM you have on your phone? Are you now able to get into your phone (ie: did you flash back)? Is your phone CID Unlocked?
Sorry for my confusing post. I am able to get past the boot screen if i take my battery out and put it back in but turning on normally It wont get past if you get what i mean. further explained below...
Heres my numbers: ipl is 2.21, spl 2.21 os 2.18 gsm 02.19.11 , it is CID unlocked, it was flashed to farias rom from t-mobiles latest rom. Ive flashed farias rom twice now going back to t-mobiles first in both instances.
The main problem i seem to get is with the devices time - i'll try to explain this as well as i can - if the devices time is set to now then it is really slow and active sync does not work and the today screen will only show the time and nothing else like messaging, live, tasks, calender etc. and if you reset the device it does not get past the boot screen. Taking the battery out therefore reseting the devices time it works great but changing the time back to now and it lags again. Hope you understand this
P.S. I have installed microsofts dst patch

I honestly don't know if this will help, but you might try flashing the latest TMobile US ROM to get you to 2.26 instead of 2.21
http://www.t-mobileapps.com/downloadcenter/Software_List.cfm?selDevice=24
Then flash Faria's over that. Note that the 2.26 ROM will put the 2.25 Radio on your phone. You may want to then get the 2.19 UK radio from the ftp site here and go back to that one (I find the 2.19 works better than the higher versions on WM6 for me).
Also (and maybe before doing what I just suggested) try either turning off BatteryStatus, or upgrading it to 1.04.201 Beta 3. There have been fixes and I had a lockup problem (I couldn't reboot my phone if the USB cord was plugged in and BatteryStatus 1.04.200 Beta 2 was running). I'll attach the cab to this post.

Are you overclocking or anything? Have you installed other apps, or does it work this way right after installing Faria's WM6 rom?
Faria's WM6 ROM is very good and I've never seen stuff like this reported so it seems its something with your setup. You could try flashing the fixed mUn's ROM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1172977&postcount=361 ) and see if it behaves the same way. If it does then you have an issue with your phone it would seem. If it doesn't then its an interaction with software on the device.

You don't have to install this on WM6.
I posted the following item in the "Beginners instructions thread" last week, but only one person has responded. I am trying to repost again in the hope that more people will see it and that someone will have experienced this previously:-
I have read countless threads on this site and have finally decided to upgrade my O2 XDA from WM5 to WM6.
I have found the instructions for doing this, but have fallen at the first hurdle.
The mobile update utility cannot connect to my Wizard, (error 222). I am still able to sync with active sync, so my pda is seeing and being seen by the pc.
Is there anything that I can do to at least get started please?
P.S. I have tried downloading lokiwiz, but that doesn't work either. I tried searching google for it, but that only brings me back to this site.
Is it actually possible to upgrade or am I missing something really stupid?
P.P.S
I have now done a hard reset. The only thing that I have changed is the date and time. This is now an O2 Exec, completely as it came out of the factory. I am using Active Sync 4.5. Why can I not connect to the button rom?
im not too sure what your issue is but i think you will get an answer on ppcgeeks.com. i use this site and that one. you have a lot of experts between the 2 sites
Thanks aman1127, my main problem is that the mobile update utility cannot connect to my Wizard, (error 222). I am still able to sync with active sync, so my pda is seeing and being seen by the pc.
I have read all the warnings about turning your Wizard into a brick, I can't even get it to do that!
I have checked the help tab on the Mobile Updat Utility, but that gives me "error 404"
Is there a proper way to upgrade my device using software and instructions that are up to date?
I'll have a look at the other site as well. Many thanks for your help.
I posted this under the HardSPL thread, however nobody has responded for days, so I'm starting a new one.
I have a Verizon TP2 and Windows Vista 32bit. I have successfully connected with WMDC and am in "Connected" status. If I run the unlocker in Auto mode the program crashes back to the desktop. If I run the program in Manual mode, I get to a screen that says my current image version is 1.18.605.12 and can select the Update button. When I do that it says I want to update from 1.18.605.12 to 1.00.OliNex and I click Next. I get the percentage bar window momentarily then a window pops up saying "ERROR [246] : DEVICE IS NOT RESPONDING, click Exit to quit. I've installed the enablerapinew.cab and installed it to device, but still no love.
Any ideas, I've tried disabling AV, rebooting phone, rebooting computer, different activesync modes, etc.
I have the Same issue
same here
Got the same issue tried everything pretty much so far. I PMed cmonex and waiting for respond now .
I have an Att Fuze running the stock 6.1 firmware from Att.
I tried running XDAndroid 2.2 Final build for my phone, it appeared to crash while loading so I hard-resetted my phone.
Despite the fact that XDAndroid is supposed to run completely off the sdcard and not touch my internal memory, it appears to have corrupted my phone!
TouchFlo no longer launches (it keeps saying touch screen to launch TouchFlo, and if I do it goes crazy trying to launch and failing over and over), the phone is VERY slow and laggy, and the worst of it all, I CANT RUN ANY UNSIGNED SOFTWARE ANYMORE! Any attempt to run any program that isn't signed results in "The file (whatever) cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found"
I can't even run PimBackup to backup my contacts and text message logs!
I tried to install HardSPL since I figured might as well flash a custom rom to it but it failed too! It kept saying "Error 246 Device not responding" even though it identified it correctly when its booted into WM, and when I force it into bootloader mode it starts the process but gets stuck at 0% and eventually HardSPL gives up.
Is there anything I can try? Any way I can backup not just my contacts buy my call logs, text logs, etc before trying to reflash it? Any idea why XDAndroid would do this to my phone?
From what I understand, it isn't specifically Haret that did it, but some weird response to an error in starting Haret. I can't remember exactly what I did but I tried to run Haret incorrectly (my finger slipped on the touch-screen) and after that nothing would run. It triggered some weird thing in the OS.
I've heard of some people needing to get into reset mode before they can flash their phone -- not sure what the process is though.
Might be best to post in THIS thread. Keep in mind, you don't want to keep creating threads. It doesn't help our forum at all...
Also, it helps to read the post in it's entirety then try it out or if you need further assistance, post a reply.

Sorry about that, pretty much every forum I have ever posted in prefers you to make a new topic instead of post in an existing one when you have a problem.
I'll post my question there, although I wasn't sure where to ask a question about disabling that annoying signed programs thing.
