Attempted WM5 Rom upgrade and got stuck!!!

Hey Guys i would need some help here i downloaded the Helmi upgrade rom but didnt seem to work. i get the device connection error before it even starts
i downloaded the official rom that i found on this forum on this link
ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/PDA2k_WWE_14000_176_11200.exe
as u can c this is the one from the Imate website when i attempted to install it. it actually didnt give me a connection error and started to install but when the PDA rebooted i got that connection error back and now i am stuck at the bootloader screen with SERIAL written at the top and V. 2.06 at the bottom tried to soft and hard reset but nothing seems to happen i even disconnected the battery for 30 minutes but couldnt get it to boot
Anybody pleeeeeease heeeeeeeeeeelp!!!!!!!!!!
Thanx

Please give us more information.
What windows are you running? XP or Vista?
Do you have an error number?

I run windows Vista and the error number i get is 101 Connection error when i attempt to run BaUpgradeUT
on the PDA the only screen i fet is the bootloader screen with SERIAL and V.2.06

Ok, the problem in flashing our precious BA under vista is that you need to replace the usb driver with an old version so the updater will work correctly.
Search the forums for vista update or vista flash and you will get the answer and the driver you need.

thanks a lot i ll try it right now been waiting for this

OK i just searched for vista flash and found this post

Try hard-resetting your device.(Hold comm manager button and voice button and use the stylus to reset the phone. press the send button when prompted) and then follow the thread to CID unlock your phone using a WINDOWS XP SP2 computer. You can also use vista if you follow the thread in my signature to upgrade the drivers in Vista.

thanks alot its workign now.

help: ERROR 262 while trying to update to ROM 1.37

I had this problem as stated in the topic.
The progress bar doesn't move at all.
After awhile, my laptop states that ERROR 262 occurred.
I tried a few more times and it is still the same.
Can any one help me on this?

first of all if u try to update a rom different from ur own country u need to do Hard SPL http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400950

I was getting error 262 also, until I realised that you need the Developer version of the HardSPL installed (I'd just installed the normal one) - as this rom is not signed.

Alright man! You guys are geniues! WORKED LIKE MAGICK!
THANKS!

plz help, tryin to use button rom-> error 260

i did the thing with active sync to make sure im a guest, and when i start the RUU button thing it starts then stops saying error 260
is there anything i can do to not get this message, i want to upgrade my 8125 to WM6

Error 260 is an open port error,its usually resolved by resetting the device and the pc. Try again after resetting 'SoftReset' the phone and 'Restart' your comp.
Secondly,which is your device,is it G3 or G4 and on which windows pc are you trying to flash winXP or winVista ?

i've restarted and reset the device, i have a G3 and my windows ps is running winXP
still no luck, when i run the rom downgrade program it crashes active sync and then gives me the error message

Then you should first disable USB connection of your ActiveSync (or kill wcescomm.exe in Task Manager yourself) before running RUU.

Hi I have got a problem and i hope that you can help me
While flashing my X1 via USB there was an error message and flashing was interrupted.
I was doing the "recovery steps" that the programm gave me but it didn´t work.
When i started my x1 again there was the tri color screen.

Please help me

As per what Lokatho mentioned,
in case you didn't know what it meant:
read that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445662
hope you could revive your X1.
Cheers!!

hmm ok i´ll try it :/
i hope that it works 'cus my X1 is new >_<

I'd suggest SD Method as well...
Additionally you could plug your X1 (while in three-color-screen, also known as Bootloader) inot your USB and start the RUU again.
Both should work.

@ wolf
I already tried it.
Everytimes the same error code something with connections problems don´t know why yesterday it worked :/

is this solved then?
