Getting Error when trying to flash to WM6.1

[Highflyguy0824]

Many Thanks again! I feel more comfortable having this 6.0 install on my hard drive to fall back on.

Yeah, as long as you have that 6.0, you'll be fine. Rule of thumb, it takes alot to brick an Apache. Like a lawnmower or dishwasher or such.

Yes, jabu is right on it. You have to make sure buildOS is gonna do the right RUU.

Ok well I just tried to flash with WM6.1 again and I got the same Error 101: Connection Error. I did get something different though. Before, I did not get the "your fimware will be flashed from xxxx to xxxx" screen. This time I did but I still get the error. I don't know if I have the wrong settings but I will make a screen capture and show you how it looks like.

Try putting you phone in bootloader mode before trying to flash. Press the Record Button, the Power Button, and the Reset button.

I have tried that due to the fact that at one point in time my phone was stuck in bootloader

Most of the time if not all the time, I need to put my phone in bootloader mode before flashing to 6.1. I have flashed about a dozen times.

Is that vista? Your issue could also be vista related.

I am using Vista but I will try putting the phone into bootloader before flashing. Thanks for the advice. From what you can see in the screenshot, are all my settings correct?

Not sure if you were the user who made a comment on my youtube video or not...anyhow, this thread here http://www.modaco.com/content/window...ltimate-guide/ has a solution for flashing to .exe ROMS on Vista. I used it for those in ealier days, but it's my understanding you don't need it since the kitchen has is it all. I un-did the solution on my VIsta machine and it worked for me in the kitchen but not when doing like an Official ROM. Try though, you don't have anything to lose at this point.

Some ppl have success with "NoID" instead of "standard".
