Re: Flashing with Vista
 
I just dont know what I'm doing wrong. I've flashed it before on a an XP computer no problem, but this is rediculous lol. Everytime I run the .exe file it will read my phone then say there's a connection error once it goes into boatloader. Ive updated the mobile device center to the newest I could find on the Microsoft website but I think the main problem stems from not reading my phone once it's in boatloader. Any suggestions on anything to try? All help is appreciated! Thanks a lot guys!

Vista and v1.00 phones do not play well together. Upgrade to v1.02 (preferred) or v1.04.

Same here - once you run BuildOS as admin there should be no problems

Vista Ultimate SP1 Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1.695

I just flash my Apache 5 times in the last 24 hours because of the bug here

Mine did that the first time because windows had to install another driver - make sure when you phone is bootloader mode plugged into the computer there us no unrecognized devices.

I just successfully flashed with vista as well. Make sure you specify the correct bootloader version in BuildOS under version. It'll just hang if you don't.

That guide was written before the latest Vista MDC updates. It no longer applies or is needed.
