No problem. Enjoy your device.

Working well and flash went smoothly on a Bell Mobility 6700 with boot loader 2.02. Thanks!

Has anyone gotten this RUU to work from Vista 64-bit?

I followed the guide at Modaco about downgrading WMDC's drivers but I can't get that to work either. I downloaded the VistaRUU zip in that thread and rebooted Vista into the special unsigned driver mode but when I try to update the drivers, it always says 'this folder does not contain a compatible driver'.

Anyone have any suggestions for a 64-bit install?

Edit: This is a Verizon Apache with 1.02 bootloader. I made sure the phone was in bootloader before attempting any flashes or 'driver downgrades' and made sure USB connections was unchecked.

Edit 2: Nevermind I just gave up on 64bit and found an old XP machine to do it on.

Excelent rom no errors

I get the "Error 150: ROM Upgrade utility error" trying to flash a VX6700 w v1.02 Bootloader under WinXP Pro. Any ideas, please, would be appreciated. I have read this whole thread to no avail. I should add that my radio is, I think, fried (R NONE on boot screen). I tried the ROM update as is. I, also, tried changing the RUU.conf file from:
[RADIO_TYPE]=2 ---> [RADIO_TYPE]=0
[RADIO_FLAG]=2 ---> [RADIO_FLAG]=0

but this had no affect


UPDATE: Never mind; I found the problem - there was an idiot at the controls I'm too embarrased to admit what I did wrong (even for a newbie and his first ROM flash).

THANKS PDAJ. I'll check out WM6.5 tomorrow when I'm a little fresher. Now anyone have any idea on how to resurrect the radio in this now PDA

Have you tried just flashing a different radio? The Touch Pro section has multiple radios for the Touch Pro, I wonder if the Apache also has some radios somewhere you can re-flash.

I did attempt a flash upgrade of the radio, previously, to v1.43 but it gave me an error code
http://drop.io/apache143

I forget which one right now, either 120 country code or maybe 115 wrong update for my phone (I think)


UPDATE (9/1/09): I tried the radio ROM Update again, in case I had erred as I did when trying to update the phone ROM - and I had - the same idiot had been at the controls However, this time it gave me the proper error code rather than the self-induced one. The error was ERROR 114:RADIO ROM UPDATE ERROR

I suspect that this is because I have a fried radio (hardware). I suspect this because on the boot screen it says R NONE. Anyone have any ideas or comments? I'm open to any and all. Thanks!

love the ROm. thanks. only problem is i cant get the MMS to work, says that the originator address cannot be found.. HELP??

You probably need to install an MMS cab for your carrier since this ROM is carrier neutral, that's my guess. There's probably one floating around the other ROM threads.
