Hello to all,
Can it someone explain to me in steps how I can install WM6 on my HTC3600?
Currently is on Germany language, but I would like to switch it on English.
Thanks a lot on your help.
Regards
1) decide which rom you want (I used LVSW)
2) go to the thread and read 1st post
3) grab the 3 files attached
4) they are zip's, extract each to thier OWN folder.
5) go to each folder IN TURN as listed in the thread and run ROMUtilityUpgrade that is enclosed IN EACH folder.
STOP between each folder / Upload to phone and check your phone
THE VERY first one HardSPL MAY give an error, HOWEVER just run it again, seems ActivSync throw a fit and then the computer has to re-connect, HOWEVER after that off you go.
ALSO use NON-Vista machine

Can you give to me little help with a GPS tomtom 6....?
What I need to download and install?
No worries
What exactly do you want to know about tom tom?
First off I'll assume you are buying the software. In which case you want this
http://www.tomtom.com/products/product.php?ID=281&Category=2&Lid=1
now you dont have to buy it from them direct, however that is the product you want (it may be cheaoer elsewhere)
If it's already on a memory card.... just pop the card in the slot and it'll do everything for you.
I would HIGHLY recommend making a copy of the card contents to your computer, just use activ synch and explre the device till you get to the storage card then copy and paste the entire contents of the card to somewhere safe.......
Then EITHER push this up to a larger card or carry on with the card you buy.
Install Tom Tom home on your computer, it will then synchronise your maps and voices and stuff BUT more importantly it'll auto update your software for you.
You need to be running 6.03
in this version tom tom can be set to use "built in gps receiver" after that away you go... simple and Deech proof
edit for spelling mistakes
lol.. you are really fast....
can it be anything without buying orginal software or maps ?
It can and if you know where to look I am sure you will find what you seek young Jedi
I arent going to preach but note I did buy this software mainly for updates and technical back up
If you "acquire" the software read any threads / forums from the place where you get it from
Fast cos laid on the couch nursing a size 10 thick head after last night
ihihihihihi...
okay..... i will search... my the force be with me
Again problem,
Im facing with extremly battery drain, after charging standby was just 36 hours, before was around 5-7 days i think.
Is there any solution for this??
Thank you... Mr.Vader
An my young jedi, yes there is....... and if I can get it to work it should be attached to this post.... Also read the MuN RUS Rom thread it has been flagged-up thier with alsorts of solutions including this .cab
Drop it onto your memory card and ermmm run it
I get an corrupted image error when I try and flash the hard-spl?
Anyone know how I can get around this? tried searching for info and the search function just brang up unrelated posts, and theres nothing on the wiki despite it being a common problem.
So please forgive my stupidity, and enlighten me on how to solve this?
I have an M700 with shipped rom installed
Thanks in advance,

after i upgrade to wm6, how hard is it if i want to go back to wm5, how hard is it to downgrade? Do I have to back anything up?
back up contacts etc
back up ringtones etc
grab a rom with WM5 in / on it, and re-re-flash the phone, leave the radio rom as it was mind as it's seperate from the WM section

Ahhh great thanks.
Just what I was after.
As you are using the LVSW like myself you may have an answer to my other question.
Is there a .cab file to fix the awefull sound on WM6 and the trinity?
Media player is so quiet, if I can't fix it, I'm going back a stage to WM5 as I use the MP3 player side of it allot.
Many thanks.
Shaun.
Hi,
i have just loaded wm6 following the instructions here and now i am getting USB device is not recognized.
Can anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks
Stephen
are there any issues not completely solved on the available non-official WM6 ROMs for Trinity?
I'd like to upgrade mine, but only if all the initial problems have already been solved.
BTW, my Trinity came with TomTom 6 pre-installed. If I upgrade to WM6, will I have to purchase and install a new copy of the software?
All seems to work fine now, any issues then there will be a .cab file around here somewhere, main ones are ATIfix, when does somthing to make tomtom work nicely, power fix which address' some power useage issues.
The tomtom that come with the handset is a crippled try before you buy version (well it is here in the UK ) So ermmm yes, you would need to buy a full version, but on the plus side it's yours forever and no matter what you do to your phone you can always put it back Unless the tom tom is on your SD card in which case REMOVE the card before you start and re-install when you've finished rom-ing
Failed with upgrade to wm6
Hi all
I just got mine 3600 and tried to upgrade to wm6 with the 3 files. When I run the first hard-spl program I had problems with the connection with the usb cable. The program aborted after a second or so. Now I am stucked with this colured image with the text
TRIN100
IPL-0.50
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.0000
is there any way for me to correct this. Or do I have to send the phone for repair?
Grateful for all help
/adam
Active sync doesn't get a connection to the 3600 anymore....
Read the second post in this thread, on page one, in the instructions I wrote it tells you THIS IS NORMAL, dont worry about activesync, when doing hard SPL the first time it regularly disconects and hangs the phone with the tri-colour screen, soft reset the phone and re-start the procees (ie run the first file again). That should see you right
Hi,
I have the SPV M1000 (Himalaya), and phone used to work, then died. Texting worked, but phone didn't. So i used the Orange supported software, but it downgraded it to Win Mobile 2003. Although the phone did work, i prefer WM6 for the rotate screen feature etc.
Anyway, i downloaded a few WM6 roms, but of the 3 i tried, none of them allowed me to use the phone bit of the M1000.
Which WM6 rom should i download to get the phone working okay with my Himalaya ?
I tried C_ShekharAKU7.0c.R40.P24_public, also himalaya_6_1_0_0 file, but i cannot get the phone to work.
Regards,
Andy
I would suggest that either something is wrong with the phone section, or someone has made a mistake when upgrading the radio section of the phone.
The radio upgrade is a seperate upgrade to the ROM. All Windows Mobile roms should have phone support automatically, it is just a matter of getting the right radio working for you.
I am at work and as such I can not provide you any more detail, needlesss to say, use the search function in the top right hand corner of this website, and search in the Himalaya section for radio upgrade.
Cheers
Cheers Jadel, will give that a go now !

Hello,
I'm now getting a strange error ! - i downloaded "C_ShekharWM6.1.1cR16.P32_public", but when i try to install i get a "country code" error ! - "ERROR 120: COUNTRY ID ERROR N-4-1-N-N".
What does this mean ?
Regards,
Andy
Use HimalayaUpgrade_NoID instead...........!
If you go to the Himalaya Upgrading section, you would have noticed this is the third link from the top "Fix and prevent ROM Upgrading/Downgrading Country ID Errors"
Here is the link, read it all and don't skip ahead, Rom upgrades can brick a device if not done properly.

Many thanks, i'll try that !

Just tried the "himalaya 6_1_0_0" upgrade. Installed okay. But when on main desktop screen i'm getting errors, couldn't open these files : "Screenrotate.exe", "btdwake.exe" and "Phoneservice.exe".
Other than that it works !
Help please.

hi, I tryed to downgrade my qtek 9090 to wm2003se but I had no success.. i would do it because i have some problems with bluetooth. in this forum I found this article which explains how to fix bluetooth problems ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=274425 ) but I'm not able to find all files nedeed... is here someone who can help me? it's the same for me downgrade the rom or fix bluetooth problem.
I have the original rom downloaded from www.pocketdevice.it but when I try to install it, the installation software sais that with wm5 it cannot install the rom (ROM.Qtek.9090.v.1.40.04 ITA).
please excuse me for my bad english! I hope that I've been quite clear to explain my problem..
edit:
I found this page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.40.00_Upgrade but
# Qtek 1.40.556
# Qtek 1.40.553
# Qtek 1.40.147
doesn't work...
edit 2:
I tryed to restore an old backup but wm5 doesn't accept wm2003se's backup.. wm5 doesn't accept backup at all.. uff..
first to exclude the most common mistakes:
- did you set the phone in bootloader before starting the flashing?
- did you use the BAupgrade_noID.exe, instead of the BAupgrade.exe?
- I only tryed to install the original ROM using a USB connection.. Where can I find the other files you mentioned?
- With "bootloader mode" you mean click on the starting button and camera button at the same time? When I upgraded my ROM from wm2003se to wm5 I only connected my Qtek and started WM5 from my computer not using the "bootloader mode"

I know that, when you try and flash the original rom or original updates, you usually don't have to do the things above, but, when i had to downgrade to wm2003se, it wouldn't have worked without.
1. i try and attach the _noid.exe that i downloaded with a helmi rom, as google wouldn't find a direct download source and i wouldn't want to search this forum forever, and as you don't search it yourself, i assume you don't want to spend more time looking for it as well. Anyway, the noid.exe is the same flashing prog as the original but it bypasses the check for country id and other crap.
2. the bootloader mode is also essential because, well... i don't know, why exactly, but i assume that not all roms and flashing software manage to enter the bootloader mode correctly, or too late, and you could get stupid errors like it was the wrong device for that flash.
so, i hope, the upload worked, it is everything you need to flash your device, either put the "nk.nbf" of your rom in there, or unpack the original rom and put the noID file in that folder and start it
ok, i did exactly what you wrote and now everything work! thank for you help!
why would you even downgrade? i upgraded mine to wm6 and i think i'm not going back to 2003se
first of all, because english is not my mother language and the os language is english. i found some problems using bluetooth and wifi connections and i could not download the right patch so i decided to downgrade to wm233se
SIM TOOL KIT is the only reason one would want to downgrade
Maybe you could try an 6.1 ROM.
RUU_BA_xplode_WWE_6.11.00 works perfectly and has an standard wm6
interface.
Hi guys,
first of all, thank you for this awesome forum. I've been a frequent visitor in this forum and I've already found a lot of useful tips but now I need your help because I don't know what to do anymore.
First of all a brief explanation: I'm using a Kaiser (German Vodafone branding). My old device has been replaced by Vodafone due to a hardware defect. Vodafone gave me completely new device with the following data:
Windows Mobile 6.1 Prof
CE OS 5.2.19122 (Build 19122.1.0.3)
ROM-Version: 3.28.162.2 GER (this is the latest version)
I used exactly the same version on my old device and the program mentioned above Go Suite v. 0.91 does not work with my new Kaiser anymore, however it worked great with my old device. Go Suite requires two further programmes in order to run:
Go Suite v.0.91 (GoSuite.ARMV4.cab - can be downloaded here
netcf.all.wce4.ARMV4.cab
PocketGnuGo.ARMV4.cab (also downloadable on the same website)
I followed the installation manual step by step but it still doesn't work. I've tried everything possible to get the software started. However, this was the first program I installed on my Kaiser (well, I tried).
If you need further information feel free to ask me. Neither Go Suite nor Windows show any error reports, only the launching symbol shows up for a couple of seconds after clicking on the icon.
I'm sorry that I can't give you more detailled information about the error. Is there any tool or a possibility to get to read the Windows error report? If you know one, just let me know where to get it and I'll deliver further details.
I hope you can help me - I'm sort of desperate since I really need this programme and I don't know what to do.
Thank you!
Harald

tytn 2 ultimateXv9. your apps working.
Hi, I have HTC Blue Angel running WM6.5 and find that it struggles to run at this level, i am looking to downgrade to the original wm2003 that it came with, I am on Orange UK
Current Seetings :-
Rom Version : 6.5.23004EN
Rom Date : 06/12/09
Radio Version : 1.15.00
Protocol Version : 1337.45
Extrom version : 23004-xplode
could anyone help and tell me excactly what files i need to download to restore to original shipped state and exactly how to carry out the downgrade.
Regards,
John.
welcome to the forum!
ok, what you need is:
- a pc, preferably with windows xp
- a wm2003 rom in your preferred language, e.g. from -=xplode's shipped rom archive=-
-a RUU (Rom upgrade utility), you can try mine there (attached)
and then you go to the -=wiki wizard for downgrading=- and follow the instructions there or follow these shortened instructions:
1. hard reset your device: power+reset, then camera and record, change the values in the menu from No, No, Yes to YES, YES, NO using the camera and record buttons, confirm with the mail button.
2. put your device in bootloader mode
3. connect it to the pc using the cradle or a usb cable
4. extract the shipped rom in any folder
5. put the maupgradeut_noid in there and start it
6. have a look, whether the 2nd page shows device and rom information, if not, exit, start task manager and kill activesync (wcesmgr and wcescomm) and go back to step 2
7. start the "upgrade"
8. when it's done, perform a wm2003 hard reset by pressing power+reset, and wait for the versions to show up in the bottom right corner, if all the values changed from your previous wm6.5 versions, you're probably fine and done by now.
in very rare cases, something goes wrong, some combinations of pcs and devices wouldn't work with my ruu, but you would realise that at step6 or 7, try and download another ruu then and try again, i think there also is one linked in the wiki.
at the end, your device should read something like:
R:1.12.00
G:1337.42
D:1.06.02

Decided to go for windows pocket 2005
Thanks Chef_Tony im afraid im running vista and have tried using mtty but with no success, I have now decided to downgrade to pocket 2005, is this possible and how would i do it with windows vista as i am unable to downgrade to XP. Please help if possible.
Thanks John
Bootloader
Hi i dont know if this makes any difference my Bootloader is showing Version 2.05 Reagrds.
no, it does not make any difference, since the bootloader's version is not the problem. before you go on doing anything, you should have a good look at this site:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade4_Vista_Pic
and unless you are sure, the installation of the driver was successful, you should not attempt to flash the device, because then you will end up with a half-flashed device, that cannot be switched on and maybe also not flashed anymore.
http://firmware.atspace.com/ can't be accessed. is there any other site for wm2003se rom ?
I have the same problem, as i m downgrading to WM 2003, i followed all the instructions as u mentioned here, but when i run "maupgradeut_noid" it always said that this ROM is not for your device, i have Orange SPV M2000 (Blue Angel), please help i cant able to downgrade to WM 2003.
One more thing is there any way to Merge ExtROM with Storage in Windows MObile 6.5?

ok, we are dealing with several different things here:
1. the storage resize:
no, it can only be done in wm2003, no way to do it in wm5 or above, you have to downgrade
2. while attempting to downgrade, don't forget to put your device into bootloader mode, before connecting and starting maupgrade, then there will be no device error anymore.
3. of course for downgrading you need the original rom, at best from xplode's shipped rom archive, if you can't access it, just tell me your favoured language and country, and i will look it up and send you the direct download link. btw. xplode's site works fine!
favoured languange : English
Country : Indonesia
please send me the direct link. thx a lot. chef_tony
since he doesn't have indonesian roms and you are fine with english, here are the links of 2 different UK roms, you should be fine with.
T-Mobile UK WWE 1.42.00 1.42.112 1.13.00 Download (Ziddu) / Mirror 1 (Rapidshare) / Mirror 2 (Megaupload)
O2 UK WWE 1.40.00 1.40.242 1.12.00 Download (Ziddu) / Mirror 1 (Rapidshare) / Mirror 2 (Megaupload).
i hope these links work for you.
thx a lot chef_tony. I almost forgot. I want to ask whether the different rom can drain the battery fastly ? because my battery drain faster using WM6.5.
the power consumption of the device mainly consists of 2 things:
- wireless communications (gsm, gprs, bluetooth, irda, wi-fi)
- hardware usage (cpu & ram)
the wireless does not really vary from rom to rom but much like on the pc, graphically more intense applications use more power and since wm6.5 has a much nicer shell, it uses more ram and cpu to run. that uses more power.
if you want to save battery, reduce the backlight intensity, let the device switch off faster and end all applications that you don't need and de-activate wireless communications that you don't use. still then the battery life is limited but that is something you will have to learn to put up with.
thx chef_tony. I want to ask about the memory used ? is it better with storage 42mb and program 90 mb or repart it into default which is storage 60mb and program 60 mb ? is this RAM configuration also affect the battery consumption ?
no, that has nothing to do with that, because you don't resize the ram, you resize the extrom and the storage. that doesn't have any influence, kind of like the size of the sd card does not have influence.
