Is it possible to install WM6 on an I-Mate SP5 ?

hi all
anyone know how to install WM6 on an I-Mate SP5 ?
I've tried this but always run into problems.
1) SPV-Services errors with -2146893818
2) lokiwiz errors with "could not update itsutils.dll"
I have confirmed that i have an active connect to activesync and can sync if needed.
please help !

well, i have had the sp5 rom on my 2125, and i am now running the wm6 va alpha.
either way, i had a lot of slow down issues with the beta version. if you get past the CID unlocking, install the alpha version instead.
also, are you getting that error when you click the CID Tool option?

I-Mate WM6 Installation
Hi, I installed WM6 on my SP5 yesterday and so far all is working well. I followed the instructions as set out on the link below with the exception of item number 10.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321408
Although i used the Perfect English version and not mobile 6 Beta, everything works as planned:
1. Flashed with WM6GSMUPDATE.zip
2. Used SPV-Sevices client and run the CID tool.
3. Disabled USB and entered bootload mode
4. Run TeraTermPro and edited as described in that post.
5. Flashed with Perfect English WM6 ROM
6. Downloaded the Short_AP1 ~ Short_AP4 and unzipped to /windows : http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=46839&d=1186790764
7. Soft Reset.
I had a problem with my contacts due to me not backing up correctly. DSF made a suggestion which has resolved the problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=323136
Regards,
Alex.

The problem is that the SPV-Sevices errors with -2146893818 so i can't superCID.
exactly what do i need to do with SPV-Sevices to SuperCID the phone ?
this is driving me nuts, i can't even update the ROM with WM6GSMUPDATE.zip, when i do, the ROM update utility goes through it's passes, the indicator progresses to 100% but when the phone reboots, it's still at ROM version 2.5.331.2.
nothing is working !

how does one app unlock the phone ?

With this
App unlock, Super CID, Format BINFS, then run the updates

Hotsync your phone to your computer and run SDAUnlock. I hope it works for you.
After you upgrade to WM6 you will need to run one of the button fix files associated with the rom. Otherwise your contact and messaging buttons wont work.
whoops too slow tx karhoe

I got the same error when i tried to unlock using the application. Had to use the registry editor and set to entries, after that I could run the st servies app to super cix, then all worked well on my sp5. Bin running wm6 english since last week thursday.
Only prob i have is when my screen goes black, sometimes it actually goes white like when you activate the flashlight application. Also had to disable the light sensor as during the day it was making the screen so light that i couldnt see my screen.

application unlock, then supercid. that -2364527465 problem is the application unlock problem.

it says "the phone in not unlockable"
i even tried re-flashing with the latest I-Mate ROM and tried app unlocking, no deal.
I can't even see the reg entries in HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies..
What gives ?

Weird. All I did to unlock my phone was to run the attached executable file and it was done. I also have an imate sp5 so I don't know why it is different for you. Just to make sure I am attaching my file. So you can try with it. By the way, I guess your activesync connection must be on when you run this tool. But I am no expert. Just try once more.

Did you reboot your phone anot ?

this is hopeless... still can't unlock.
do you think it's due to the fact that i'm running the latest i-mate rom, version 2.5.331.2 ?

Dont give up! try these apps. Run the cab from your phone. I think the exe runs from your computer and installs through activesync. Hope you have some luck soon.

Because the ROM comes with no T9 or xT9.
You should install one of these and then add your languages if you need.

may be that. before I upgraded to wm6, I never installed a new rom on my imate. So I don't remember what the rom version was, but it wasn't the latest.

This really is the key isn't it? I think the OP is trying to execute the upgrade program from his phone.
To the OP you must run the upgrade from a Windows PC.

I cannot use ActiveSync (any version) to upgrade my MDA. I have been all over this site and other sites. I have tried everything to get ActiveSync to work and connect to my phone. I have had a lot of people on this forum trying to get me operational. No Luck.
So, can I donwload a CAB file to upgrade my Phone ISP/SPL and OS to my MDA SD card and then install from the SD Card like I do other apps?
I believe the answer is no based on this thread. But, I will not give up hope.

Please guys, I am asking nicely now. This is not a place to insult other people.
Just answer questions if you know the answer or don't bother at all if you don't want to help.
NOTES :
In order to upgrade a ROM, you'll need a PC with ActiveSync installed and an USB cable to connect them
There is the possibility to flash from SD card but that is only in emergency cases, and it's not recommended. Plus i don't know if it will work unless the SD Image isn't your own.

Need help installing ROM ERROR 204

I really want to use dutty's new rom but I am having problems installing it. I have done a couple roms before and never had this problem. Currently I am using the q-mobile rom. I have tried 2 different XP computers. The problem is error 204 file not open. Activesync is connected to my phone, and is more than 50% battery. When I open up winzip I click on Kaiser_RUU.exe* and I go into the next screen that asks if my battery is more than 50% and such, then it says verifying information and BAM ERROR 204 can not open file. I tried downloading the ROM from mirror sites and still get the same problem. How can I fix this issue? Thanks
in bootloader:
KAIS1*0 MFG
SPL-1.0.OliPof
CPLD-8
I tried using the L26 rom also and still get this problem.
any help would be appreciated, because this rom looks like it kicks some major a$$

try removing the usb cable and plugging it in to another port and letting a/s reconnect and then try flashing again.

unless I'm mistaken, you need to extract the files in a directory first then click the RUU exe file? I think it's looking for the nbh file because you directly clicked the exe file in the zip archive

There's some information in the Herald Goldcard page (check the link from the Elfin Goldcard wiki).
I haven't tried it yet.. but maybe it does some cool stuff like bypassing Model ID check?

Are you able to get the SDO file as mentioned in the service manual (page 35)? I assume this is an all-Elf unbricking image.
The HTC website requires login to obtain it.

Hi!
I test the file on my bricked Elfin.
Normal flashing via SD card is impossible because the bootloader doesn't start the flash process.
However the diagnostic file runs without any errors.
Only the last menue point of the screenshots "Change ColourID" isn't at my screen.
My ELFin is still bricked, maybe there is a special trick to unhide this menue entry

Hey bro, what does changing Color ID do?
EDIT: Booting from elf0diag.nbh makes it go into a DIAG> prompt in MTTY. I don't know what commands to use though.

I think it's no use whit the MTTY. Many official tools are the elf0diag.nbh format.

When this one starts, it says "Please Input Password".
Note: You cannot start any ELF0DIAG.nbh from SD if you have a USPL installed; you have to flash a signed SPL first.
PLUS IT WILL HARD RESET YOUR DEVICE IMMEDIATELY AFTER IT STARTS UP, WITHOUT ASKING....

Hi!
I testet the new diagnostic File, and now I can change the Color ID.
Black and Green are available.
Black change the MID to ELF030000
Green change the MID to ELF030001
The original MID can't be restored!?!?!?! (it was ELF030050)
Maybe there are more Versions of the diagnostic tool which change the device into other colors.

I make exactrly whatever is writen there but I get message:
Security level not cleared!
What I suppose to do to avoid this and to get into test?

Hi, dsixda!
Bro' I'm in trouble...
The device was in tricolor bootloader.
Untill i work with your onix 4.0 was OK! but I decide to go back. So I get in this state.
Around (few nautical miles) was not other with device like this... :-(
So please gi'me som instruction what I can to do?
I can download or recieve files. maybe is possible to recieve an image of Gold card unbricker? or something that allow to load from SD card or USB?
Write to me here or PM or on my e-mail.

[Q] p920 debrand ?

Hi. Please could somebody help me. I have a UK model from orange. It's now unlocked but has orange bloatware. I have searched the forums for a debrand method but only found one, and that only works with win xp.
Is there any way to unbrand this phone with windows 7. Orange did not support this phone and it's still stuck on android 2.2.2.
Thanks in advance

Could you try this?
I've done it a few times myself, with succes, and I think this is the way I've managed it.
*This asumes you've installed
Follow this on the official LG site: http://www.lg.com/uk/support-mobile/lg-LGP920 , and go to the tab "software update".
But instead of just updating your phone do this: Click on User/Support (above) then emergency mode, insert your IMEI and click on check

?
It didn't work i'm afraid. What's really odd is that the phone is on froyo 2.2.2 and the OTA update from the phone says there's no update available. Yet the lg update tool tells me an update is available yet after it has downloaded and about to 'install' it stops and says that the update cannot continue because a 'fatal error' has occured ?
Very odd. I'm guessing the orange bloatware is the problem. I HATE orange !
Edit. Ok, i just installed all the flashing tools to my pc (win 7) But when i open flash tool a window appears saying 'lg usb/parallel key is not detected. i'm also asked for a password and id ?

I downloaded everything but there was no crack included for the flashtool and no .dll file to enter into the flashtool ? it certainly looks incomplete so did not help at all.
Do i really have to keep entering an image verification everytime i need to reply on my own thread ? Seems so daft.

If it is rooted you can delete almost anything you want.

Funnily enough i tried your method first. The flashtool kept asking for an id and password so i could not continue. Where do i find the id and password ? that was with flashtool 1.1 running on win 7

Copy the indicated file over the original as instructed or use 1.2 if you want. You also have to run the installer before using it...It might be a good idea to run it in xp sp3 compatibility mode.

dll
The link for downloading the p920 .dll file is broken. Is it available anywhere else ?

Thanks for telling me, I'll repost it...
In the mean time you could try this. It's not my link, though

Thanks drastic00. I've downloaded the link :good:

not working
I've now tried all methods and nothing works. The furthest i have got so is to hit the yellow start button on the flash tool, but the port does not become ready. I have followed all instructions to the letter.

Recheck step 1 details carefully. Be sure antivirus and Defender are off when downloading and decompressing. It won't start until drivers are installed correctly.
You should see the devices in device manager with no 'blinking' of the omap device, and LG CDMA USB SERIAL, on which you change the port number to 41. Then you are ready to flash.
That part is fiddly.
