i have similar issues

this is my 2nd flash but i wanted to delete the RUU i used for the 1st flash so i can download a new one.

i cant delete the RUU from my desktop. it says its being used by a person or program.

but once i had it with the ROM i wanted it wouldnt flash," i get the update utility cannot open the file. please check your update utility"

when i sync the phone i also looks like it disconnects and says microsoft cannot reconize for one of two reasons: the device was not connected properly etc. or the device is not a smart phone/pocket pc" but i was told it will do that and i did flash a radio with no problems like this..

not sure what to do

ok question

when you extract the file from the rom to the RUU folder on your desk top. when you open the folder, are you suppose to see a folder in the RUU folder itself that contains the ROM?

i dont know what im doing diff from the 1st time i flash a ROM.

i have my RUU on my desktop, i extract the file from the ROM into the RUU folder and then i run the utility..

im getting this error

i was able to flash a rom again, but using the custom RUU folder from the ROM itself. it worked but the ROM i downloaded is not stable.

help guys
