PDAJ's Clean WM6.5 ROM 4 Apache - Page 6

ffresh · #1 (**permalink**) 08-31-2009, 10:32 PM

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.

Very nice, flashing right now. Any chance of a Sprint version? If so I just may un-retire my apache.

What seems to be the problem? I have a Sprint branded HTC 6700 (PPC 6700) with this ROM and it works great. Maybe we can provide some support?

No problems it runs fine, I asked that while I was flashing so I wasn't sure on compatability yet. I can't say everything works as my apache isn't my phone anymore, but I've been thinking about going back to it, normal phones bore me after my apache.

I'm on verizon and this ROM seems to be working okay, but if I dial #DATA or *611 or anything I hear a "Hi! Thanks for calling Alltel!" message. Is this a result of this ROM? Do I need a Verizon specific one or what? I'm also having trouble receiving text messages with it.

EDIT: It also seems like *228 is dialing Alltel's programming, not Verizon's

just tried to re activate my apache now it wont accept their programming (##msl#) anymore. Can someone verify this working on theirs?

Edit: Nevermind, they just needed to enter the MDN and MSID, I called in after going into ##778# and pretended I was in whatever menu they wanted, all worked out. Still dunno what happened to the ##MSL# command, though. Treats it like a regular phone number.
