I am having real issues using the search tool on the forums it will not seem to work, so please excuess me as I have tried to look before asking this question.
Is there a working WM6 for the XDA mini S, I have tried a few but they say invalid image.
Try downloading the file from this topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=263116
It contains an italian version of the updater program which is hacked to allow any image to go onto your XDA. Then once extracted you move the nk.nbf file of WM6 to that folder so the italian updater is used to blast the WM6 rom onto your device.
Bit of searching for Error 300 invalid update tool would have found the same information for you, thats how i figured it out. Im running PDAVeit v3 on mine for a week or so now and its running really well.
Also another wee tip, the search is a bit keek on here, so use google
Example:
update tool error site:xda-developers.com
Thanks, I am not new here , I read the forums a lot. and do use other forums often. I know it annoys people when "newbie" people ask questions without looking. I was certain the answer was on here and spent an hour last night looking, it was just using the search tool on this site kept telling me there were no matches, I tried
XDA
wm6 xda mini s
etc. I tried a lot, but anyway thanks for the tip on google to search the site.
xda mini s ---> IS the HTC Wizard only for O2...
Yeah I understand it is just a wizard, but from O2 hence me putting my question on this section of the forum.
I have done as suggested and have tried the hacked loader and this has not worked. I keep getting the error saying Error 300.

Please can someone help us unknowlegeble people create something like that for us (romkitchen for windows mobile 5.0)
Thank you.
do your own research
try doing some research instead. I bought my first windows smart phone one week ago, researched the ROM upgrades and methods at this forum and others. I was able to unlock my phone, safely backup my stock ROM, and flash a much improved radio and firmware package without any trouble thanks to the excellent resources available.
If you want someone to do it for you or hold your hand, you have no business hacking your phone anyway. Leave it to those who can research for themselves.

Thank you to everyon for your help. Yes the wiki should be the first stop. But have you visited the wiki lately? it really dosent help out that much, cause it dosent have that much information in the first place.
If you Look at the main forum, i have already complained about that .
as for the link to the romkitchen for the wizard, i will just wait till someone tests it out.
hello, im new to the forum.

its an O2 Xda Mini. not a wallaby. sorry!
Ok, well, there is no telling what the BEST software is, just read through the forums, alot of people offer there own versions of the updates, and decide which on is safest for you to update with and stuff...

haha Okay. Is there anything you could suggest? like WM6 or something that is pretty bug free? i dont really understand the kitchen thing and i dont know how to cook my own...
Hmn.. this is the one that I use... Crossbow Reloaded v1.5 .. check it out here.
I like it, see if its compatible with your device first as you should always do.
sweet!!!! it worked! thanks!
No problem, glad I could help.
hi i am using cingular 8125 & i want to update it to windows 6 . So how its possible & pls provide ma the link of best rom verson
1. Don't double post. Doing so wastes everyone's time.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314564
2. Don't come here and expect us to tell you everything. There are guides posted explaining how to unlock and flash your device. There's a Wizard wiki. There's a full FTP site with tools and programs.
Bottom line: read, read, read.

Read the sticky's!
tell you what, we'll all help you upgrade...if you still can't do it yourself, if you can tell us WHY you want to upgrade to WM6.
Or just go back to school so you can learn to read all the DAMN STICKIES!!!!
hey shimpy,
i too am a novice to mods for pocket pcs. fortunately for me i have experience in regular pcs and the others are right if every member spent all their time "holding your hand" then there would never be mods made. Basically just browse around and read a few posts and search out ones from guys like faria and you won't be disappointed.
Hola everyone: so I plunged in and spent my 20quid for CID unlocking (www.imei-check.co.uk) my g4 o2 xda mini-s this morning, and that completed OK.. question is - now what?
I've got the o2 software on it at the moment (so can't GPRS properly with it) so wanted to switch the software. What's the best rom - where do i find it - and how do i load it!?
..
there's way "too much" information flying around on this site sometimes it's mind-blowing..
now that i've CID Unlocked it; can i just put on the TNT wm6 ROM??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341550
You could have unlocked it yourself for free on this forum - I unlocked mine using info from this forum.
I'm running XM6r4 at the moment and liking it - see this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=346478
Although I believe r5 is out now:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1759543
ah well. but now that's done i can just go and install any of those things without further faffing?!
I think so - but then I'm a newbie so perhaps a more experienced member can help you out
like i said. WAY TOO much info on here sometimes. i like it fast and hard. i stole christmas.
ok off to 'ave a go at a new rom. though i should get caffeine first. cheers for replying
GRRR: Tried to run the rom update tool and keep getting error 300?! Invalid ROM image or something?!
You said you liked it fast and hard... what do you expect?
Where do you guys come from?...
Like you said, there is a lot of information on the forums. Its there for some reason! Use the search functionality of the forum and you shall find precise answers for your questions.
mebbe i should write a 'UK o2 XDA mini-s' upgrading wiki
all done now - found a link for the error 300 and got wm6 on OK
of course still can't browse the web - but i think this is an o2 PAYG 'feature'

You should!! I've tried it tonight and got stuck at the preloader screen - waiting for feedback on how to proceed [got a black linux screen rather than a white one as detailed in the crib sheet so didn't do the hard spl rom update - banged out instead]
What's your prob with web browsing - I have the Mini S on o2 and can access web via GPRS [at huge cost, mind you].
Hey guys, I was looking for some sort of tutorial for something.
I was trying to find something that explains how to go from the a Branded AT&T Treo 750 with AT&T Windows Mobile 5 (version 1.13) to the Unbranded Windows Mobile 6.
Does anyone know how to do this or know somewhere which explains it?
It's my brothers phone, I have an AT&T Tilt, so I'm not too experienced with the Palm stuff.
He said that when he tried to run the exe file for an unbranded update it gave him some sort of error.
Anyway, how do I go about switching from Branded to Unbranded WM6?
And what features does which update have? Like which one is the best?
I appreciate any help guys.
Thanks.
Try searching a little before asking. There are thousands of posts to look through, the answer is probably already there..............
Why do you want an unbranded version? I recommend using the official ATT version and then customize the CapPackage.PXP to desired taste. At the end of the day the WM6 is WM6 is WM6 (per se).
And yes, you will need to do some digging - you'll learn much more about your device and how it works (the point of this forum). You'll note in your search that a lot of trial and error and collaboration goes into figuring things out. Once you have done your research, have attempted the upgrade and run into trouble or have a specific question (as opposed to a request for upgrade 101), we're here to help
Cheers!

I'm well aware of that, but the purpose of my post was to see if someone could point me in the right direction.
I've found multiple install files to download but haven't found instructions nor if they're the right install files.
Please keep in mind I've been looking for this for a few weeks now.
Anyway, anyone know anything about this?
Edit: Heh, I just posted right after you without seeing your post.
Anyway, my brother said he wanted the unbranded version for the tethering option or something. He said that the ATT version wasn't tethering properly.
I have the official ATT version with no problems via usb or bluetooth. Give it a shot and if it doesn't work go for the generic version (see sticky in this forum).

I answered this, it's the third post. This method will work with any Treo 750 (Cingular, AT&T, etc.). Since then I have upgraded to 2.27 and it is working fine.
