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.

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?!

Woah.. thanks bro.. its what i have been searching for!!
u have my gratitude
btw, i using Dopod 900, so, if i want to flash the darkforce rom into it, it is possible, right?

It sure is... I've moved from MS to a laptop with a fruit on it... So now I have to figure a whole new thing out!

Dopod 818pro Error 260

HI to all. Need some help.
Tried to upgrade my ROM but every time there is an ERROR 260. I got the ROM upgrade from HTC website, followed all the instructions but still hang at the 3 colour screen and the error will appear after that. BTW I'm using Vista with Mobile Device Centre.
Thanx in advance.

I think this may be caused by the fact you are using Vista.

So.....cannot use Vista?

from personal experience no, u can't upgrade rom using vista. i have vista home premium & i'm using vmware running win xp pro.
cari la vmware kalau nak update guna vista. mestila awak tahu mana nak cari software ciplak kan? hehehe (sorry for malay talk here)

Confirmed, MUST use XP to upgrade. Borrowed my brother's computer to do it. Now works perfectly.........looks like my plan to upgrade to HTC TyTN II is on hold.

Old Dell Axim x51 how to instal orginal win mo?

Hi Guys. I have little problem with my dell axim x51 . I have windows mobile 6.5 (lennysh modification) , but my cf slot dont work , lennysh dont have fix on it so , i want to install official windows mobile. Wiki says that i can instal on my dell x51 windows mobile 6.5 , but i cant find link to the official page with dell upgrader. I do not know any others win mobile 6.x on dell x51 with working cf slot. Please help me. Thanx.
If i posted this thread in wrong category , please forgive me.

You can still downgrade your axim X51 to the latest official WM5 version 'A12' from Dell's support site here if you really need CF access. This will require you to use the USB connection to the PC. Unfortunately there is no official WM6 or WM6.5 available for the X51 from Dell.
Sorry, Wikipedia refers to lennysh's custom ROM, which is still pretty unstable as you probably know by now
Note that that link is *only* for axim X51, not for the X51v model.
