Need to upgrade from 5.0 to 6.1

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.

SPV M200 Upgrade Caused Problems ????

Hi,
This may not be the correct location so my apologies but here goes.
I downloaded the Blue Angle Windows 6 update (Helmi Windows Mobile 6 Professional RO) it started to run and check the phone, it started to load then the phone on the stand link but ALL went DEAD. I cannot restart the phone. I have tried a soft reset and a hard reset, both with NO luck. I have the Orange update ROM which would take it back but cannot get this to link and run in order to regain the operation of the phone. The phone is completely DEAD even the ON –OFF switch will not work. I have tried taking off the battery, this has no affect.
Just found data on the screen, at the top - the word "serial" and at the bottom " v2.072.
ANY SUGGESTION PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!
Regards Peter

please help omapclock on htc dash device freezes on start up

ok so i have searched high and low, googled and poured through many various forums and i can't find an answer anywhere so i figured if i was going to ask anyone for help it would be where the issue started.
so my problem? i installed the wm6.1 update by kavana when i got my phone about a month ago and after about 6 hours of tweaking i finnally got it on my phone freaking awsome i thought! i had been using the omapclock prog to underclock my phone to improve battery life much like i had used a similar program on my moto a1200, but i ran into an issue with the playback on a video in core player so i decided to bump up the clock speed to resolve this issue thinking that if it came with the rom then my device would be compatible with the clock speeds allowed by the program, so i set it to 288 and the phone froze, i reboot the phone... same thing. i cant access anything not even the start menu and when i try my s620 crashes, i call t-mobile and ask them for the hard reset i guess i should have figured that it wouldn't work i found another person said to hold the 1 key and then hit 2 that doesn't work either, another says to reflash the phone... i don't see how this is possible if the phone can't load active sync, WTF ? does anyone know how to hard reset or clear the settings?

seriously i can't be the first person to have had this problem, does anyone atleast know how i contact kavana to ask what the hard reset buttons are?

i don't know what kind of device you have but you should be abel to reflash a ROM using the sd card method i know for a fact because i do my own ROMs & that is one thing that save my a*s. be more specific on your device so we could help you out more.. ps: also a hard reset should of done it if you are overclocking because it resets your setting back to the stock on the ROM you have

You have 2 x options bootup phone press nothing plug in usb on computer go Windows\Startup find omap delete it... The second is hard reset to be found in excalibur forum sticky... b.t.w if the first part doesn't make sense a quick search of omap in excalibur forum will give precise instructions...
Good luck.

and btw overclocking is often a risky business and if you puch the clock speed to far, you will fry ur board!!!! USE WITH CAUTION!

to the 1st reply, i did state the device i have it's the s620,
to the second reply, thats the kind of advice that is useful, i'll try it and get back to ya, thanks alot

[Q] Android NAND ROM need help

Hi, today i tried to install this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893620&highlight=android+2.3). I stuck to this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvS4EvS0PAw), but now i have a problem: i came to the step where i must run the ''ROMUpdateUtility.exe''. I followed the steps and when there should be an install of the new ROM file it's gone from 0% to 100% in like 3 seconds (that was wierd because it should take 10 minutes) , but when it rebooted it simply stop by the white screen with the green HTC logo...i cant even factory reset it. Please help me, what should i do to repair my phone

Have you tried the hard reboot? If so try restarting the device by holding down the down volume and the power button. I had this same issue and after many tries and re-installs the device stared to function again.

i have foxed it all...and installed the android, it works perfect. If there wasnt a problem with the Wi-Fi...can somebody help me with it
And where the hell is the ''Folders'' app so i can install applications onto android!?

suggestions
I admit I am a novice and I attempted to do things I shouldn't have done without research, but I read and read as everyone suggests in this forum. I watched video after video to make sure that I was doing things right. I still bricked my phone, as many people do, but I think I was mislead. I FULLY accept my responsibility for what I did. I would just like to elucidate some shortcomings of this forum without any malice.
You guys have a lot of power! You are very knowledgeable, and we as novice developers, who wish to do fun stuff with our phones, rely so much on your expertise.
I was able to successfully flash Android onto my SD card. It was awesome. I was loving it. But I kept reading that NAND would be much better because it would boot straight to Android without having to enter Window's Mobile first. I read that battery power would last much longer too. So I found out the way to flash HSPL3, MAGLDR, and NAND. It was working fine. But I liked the earlier format of the previous ROM running off of the SD card. So I figured out how to switch to another ROM.
It was on this forum" HTC Leo: > HD2 Android > HD2 Android NAND Development>" that I read in step 2 to "You should flash stock official Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM." I did, and ended up bricking my HD2. A post-bricking search of what happened revealed that it was apparently my fault that I had previously flashed my Radio to something that led to the system failure. I read somewhere else that if my 3G wasn't working to flash the radio. So I did.
What I am upset about is, that there was no mention made nor warning given in the above forum to ensure I hadn't already flashed my radio to something I shouldn't have. Nowhere on the page is there any information warning of ill effects by flashing to earlier ROM if the Radio was flashed too. I did exactly as I was instructed and flashed to stock Windows Mobile. So I have a heavy mirror as a result. I will try and go back to T-mobile and get something under warranty. They actually told me to come here to learn how to get Android on my HD2.
So my bottom line is just what Uncle Ben (Spiderman) told Peter, "With great power comes great responsibility." If you allow your developers to post phrases like "You should flash stock official Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM" you should also be sure there are no ramifications for performing such an action.
That's all. I'm still happy with the forum, it enables us lay folk to do some awesome stuff with our hardware. Please try and be more comprehensive when it comes to potential adverse effects. Have another person or committee edit the process and make sure that nothing is left out. I guess that is why it is in the forum format, but as a novice, you don't allow any comments regarding installation so I couldn't post there. Maybe someone else can save another phone if they come across my situation. Possibly add a new policy to have the administrator run through a checklist of things that could go wrong with each step before publication?
Hopefully with your power, you will get thanks and admiration for disasters averted. Keep up the good work!
Thanks,

[Completed] Help with chinese phone factory reset.

Hello there.
I bought a fake Lenovo S820T phone from aliexpress and i was really positively impressed by this phone. The only drawback was that this phone ROM had malware in it that was installing strange apps, displayed strange full screen ads from time to time and was doing strange things like opening browser and browsing for random stuff and also was connecting to internet by it self on data connection.
Few days ago Android blocked and i had to restart the phone after which i can only see several messages "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped." after the Android starts and the whole screen is black... nothing except when i hold the power button i can see the "Power off" and "Reboot" menu... I tried to do a factory reset but this doesnt fix anything, after the factory reset and after the phone reboots its the same black screen and the error messages... I found the ROM so that I can reinstall it using the MTK droid tools but I cant connect to the phone since i had the phone set on "charge only" from the usb options... btw its 4.4.2 android version.
Can anyone tell me how can I connect the phone so that i can use the mtk droid tools to reinstall the rom on it or if i can do anything else to restore the phone?
Thanks in advance and best wishes.
