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.

Nah, I don't agree. I HATE Windows Mobile 5 and all "official ROMS". They're nothing but a peice of trash. Anyhow watch my video here on Apache ROM Flashing. http://youtube.com/watch?v=CLyFeQCKw-A It's only Ten Mins. and it will get you going. Cheeers.

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.
