Getting Error when trying to flash to WM6.1

Highflyguy0824 · #1 (**permalink**) 07-02-2008, 12:43 PM

I am using BuildOS in order to flash my 6700 to WM6.1 I updated everything using the updater and build a rom. When I try to upload the rom to my phone I keep getting an "Error 101: Connection Error" Message. I don't know what I am doing wrong. Now I am stuck in the Serial/USB screen. I really need my phone and I have been stuck without it for a day now. Please someone help.

I already flashed my 6700 to WM6 last September so I just wanted to update to 6.1 I guess.

Unplug your phone. Restart pc. Build your ROM stripped down and try a reflash.

I did exactly what you said. I unplugged, restarted, build a ROM stripped down but i still get the ERROR 101. It sucks not having a phone....

Reflash with 6 real quick to at least get your phone back. Or use my signature link and hit it with a stock rom. Are you setting the bootloader version correctly?

My terminology is a little rusty. Please explain bootloader version. PS. I clicked on your link for the OEM ROM but the Verizon link is dead.

The serial/usb screen is the phone being in bootloader mode. At the bottom of the screen it will say v*.** that is the version. Like 1.04 or 2.02 or 2.05, something of those sorts. You have to tell BuildOS what version your bootloader is or it won't work right. And as long as the phone changes from serial to usb when you plug it in, you should be fine.
