How to flash the HTC Apache

[TheRealKornbread]

I'm sure this information is basic for most people here, but can someone point me to a tutorial, or link that shows me how to flash my HTC Apache to a new ROM. I can find tutorials on how to cook a ROM, but I'm having a hard time finding out how to flash that ROM to my phone.

Thanks!

I have two videos on doing this. Click the link in my signature.

Thanks for the first link. I have searched through the forums for several hours trying to find something like this.

Not a problem. Enjoy!

Thanks again for the video tutorials. They helped a lot. I did however run into a problem. I hit the play button (to create the build), and right at the very end it said "Running RUU" or something along those lines. Then it said that it was 'This application has failed to start because RAPI.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.' I'm pretty sure that the program installed correctly, so it must be something that I did. One thing I did notice was that I didn't have my phone plugged in when I hit play, but in your video, you didn't need to plug your phone in until later in the process.

Any ideas?

EDIT: I don't get this error if I select the RUU of NoID, and it opens up the window like it is going to upgrade the phone, but when I proceed, it says it is done (after 5 seconds) without really doing anything.

Ok. After many more hours of research, and experimentation, I figured out what the problem is. Activesync was not installed properly. Activesync is required in order to flash the OS. After a re-install of Activesync everything worked properly.

Yes it is. I'm going to be making a longer more complete video soon. Windows Mobile device needs to be installed on Vista.
