im extracting all the files to a folder on my desktop called RUU. the nbh file and the RUU.exe file and all the others like EnterbootLoader.exe and RUUGetinfo.exe are all in that folder.
im extracting using winrar. and im opening the RUU.exe file but it just doesnt load. it just asks me if i want to run this program since im using windows 7 and i click yes and it doesnt do anything after that, the RUU.exe just sits there all smug, mocking me. 
and i read somewhere that i can do it from a sd card but then i lost the link and forgot about it. but u say i can do it from my phone?? thats great!!!! |
you dont have to put it into bootloader mode to flash it. that's just one of a few different ways to flash. Activesync will not see the phone when you do it that way, so don't worry about that.
here's how to flash
