Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

for error 150, you will need to follow the bootloader reversion process (you can revert to whatever versoin you want). You might try flashing stock Bell Mobility or Verizon AKU 3.3 if you want to stay 1.04/2.04/2.05 for some reason.

I just loaded the verizon version....no problems whatsoever. Except for the voicemail speed dial.....what does sprint use? I never looked!

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Hey everyone. I am a Sprint PPC-6700 user and new to this thread. Will somebody kindly point me in the right direct towards the most updated software for this phone and the directions to put it on the phone. I have looked and found many kitchens and things of that nature that I'm not sure about. I am looking to put WM6 on my phone (not sure what the difference between that and 6.1 is) and a kitchen or ROM (not sure if thats the correct term) with software that I need. Thanks in advance and as my name indicates I'm super new to this stuff so please be patient.

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

The most up to date stuff is the kitchen for WM6.1, stickied at the top of this sub-forum (Upgrades). For WM6, you can either get the old kitchen or a variety of ROMs, of which Rob's is probably the best/most current.

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

thank you very much. can you post a link or tell me where i can find the easiest and most simple directions for updating my phone (PPC-6700)? I have researched the site and have found a few but I'm not sure which is the most straight forward and the easies.

Is there a customizer for HTC Kaiser Home?

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Hey all,

I'm using the latest B7 Verizon build. I'm trying to use the Remote Desktop program, but to no avail. I keep getting the following error:
"Cannot connect. Likely reasons are: 1. The remote computer is not set up for this. 2. Reached the maximum number of connections. 3. A network error occurred while connecting."

My work computer is on a LAN, but I am using my public IP as the "Computer" on Remote Desktop. The "Domain" is blank.

That said, Remote Desktop works fine when it's connected to my work computer via USB. Of course, that's not really an ideal use of Remote Desktop :P.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can connect remotely?

Thanks!

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Any help on this?

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Is port forwarding set up correctly on your firewall/router? Can you connect from a computer outside your lan?

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Thanks for the help. I don't think I can connect on anything outside of our lan. How do I set up port forwarding?

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

It's extremely unlikely you'll be able to connect remotely to a work computer unless you are the network administrator or have VPN access. Most corporate firewalls intentionally prevent this type of access.

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

make traffic on port 3389 go to the IP of the Terminal Server or remote desktop. To harden this to attacks, you can restrict access to certain IP addresses or, IIRC, mac addresses. This does vary by firewall, however.

BTW, i am THE network admin.

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Thanks guys, got it to work :)

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Guys, just installed and everything works great. Thanks!

one question I have is about the Internet Sharing app. From reading other posts, it seems that as long as you remove the "rilphone.dll" item from the registry, Sprint can't detect that you are tethering and therefore the data usage goes through your standard data plan. That item seems to have already been removed from the ROM so there is nothing for me to. Just connect using Internet Sharing and I don't risk additional PIM charges. Can anyone please confirm this so I don't get stuck with crazy charges? Thanks!

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

I have Robs 6.0, is this the 6.1 version??

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Im using the 6.0 rom version for 3 months and I haven't been charged yet for teethering...I have verizon

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Thanks for the response. Can anyone using Sprint verify they tether using Rob's 6.0 ROM and the Internet Sharing app and don't pay additional PIM charges?

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Rob, I don't know what to say, except thanks....

I loved my 6700 when I got it a month ago, but your ROM is absolutely great...

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

I was struggling all day on my Vista PC........somewhere along the way I read that I would have less trouble doing it on XP. So I tried it on XP, followed the instructions on the screen and it worked the FIRST time. So my 2.5 cents.....try on XP pc

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

i found the problem. i found it on another forum saying stuck on booting.. or something like that and followed the instructions and in one click it started up. but thanks to the person who created this wm6 for my sprint 6700 thank you very much very happy with it

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

lol lol

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

WOW! This rom saved my sanity ... well, sort of. I installed a couple of different 6.1 kitchen ROMs and I kept getting "xxx is not a valid Pocket PC application." when trying to run some apps. I tried to get it figured out for a week because I like 6.1 and wanted to make it work. I finally gave up and tried this and all seems well. Now I gotta see what the differences in 6.0 and 6.1 are.

Thanks!!!

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Rob. anymore update? MIA

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

i've installed this after i used the 6.0 change. now some of the programs aren't workin'. like yahoo 2 go says "cannot be opened. either it is not signed with a trusted cartificate, or one of its components cannot be found. if the problem...bla bla." please help me solve this. thanks

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

HEY THANKYOU!!!!!! I was gonna try to buy a 6800, but this gave me almost everything that i wanted. One thing though, my camera dosent work now though, it dosent give me an icon to open it and the hard button dosent work either. Thanks

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Rob...

I have a PPC6700SP. Is there a way I can flash it with the Verizon rom and change some settings to be able to activate it on my Verizon account?

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Hi, Rob....

I have a PPC6700SP. Is there a way I can fix it's setting's, flash it with a VZW WM6 rom, and use it on my Verizon Network?

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

is there a pre-made clean WM6.1 rom available anywhere?

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

this link is not working

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Here, I uploaded to fileden.com so you don't have to register at madaco to get it http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/3/...7/VistaRUU.zip You shouldn't need this though for using the kitchen. I don't use it anymore. And yes Rob's website has a few premade WM6.1 but they're only for Apache with bootloader v1.02 and below because of RUU.

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

If I install the Verizon version on a sprint phone does it switch the carriers? From sprint to verizon then? SO i could use the phone on verizon network?

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Unfortunatly no. The ESN and other PRL and stuff has to be changed. There's been a lot of talk about this such as here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20090 some people have been able to do it.

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

I am already at 1.04 for the bootloader from the AKU 3.3 update from Verizon, and I am getting the 150 error. Any other ideas?

TIA,
rokky

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

A bit of clarification (for BuildOS version "0.90 Beta" as of tonight's update): the "RUU" option on the top menu bar is NOT where that is set - instead it is what is labeled as "Rev" (between greyed-out "Device: Apache", and "OS: WM6.1"). Even more confusingly, when the mouse hovers over it, it shows "OS type".

It's no wonder I was so frustrated with this on my older, but nicer XV6700 just acquired on eBay, that upgraded just fine to Verizon's AKU 3.3, but sat there like a lump with the Helmi_c/BuildOS flashing attempt, while my beat-up, 6700 updated just fine, but no audio (jack broke off mobo) makes it useless as a phone. The difference was in the "Bootloader" version - the nice phone has v1.04, and the beat-up one has v2.02, and apparently BuildOS's default works with 2.02, and not 1.04 - I had no clue how to deal with that until I read your post, and took a chance that the v1.04 "Rev/OS type" really meant the BootLoader version - YESSSSS!!!!!:headbang:

THANK YOU!

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Chill out. I'll help you as I've helped a few people with that bootloader out. First off if you're using Vista with v1.04 or v2.05 you need to select your REV version in the WM6.1 kitchen like always. And disable USB connections in Windows Mobile Device Center. I just flashed another v1.04 today. I selected REV v1.04 and disable my USB in WMDC. It works great and I did a v2.05 the same way. I didn't have to disable USB connections when using v1.00, which ggruusa claims doesn't work with Vista. If you're using v1.04 or higher with WM6 Kitchen then you need X.04+ RUU

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

...and if you'd read the tips file that should have shown during install and is available from the Help menu, you'd have known REV=Bootloader version.

I'll fix the tooltip - never noticed that error. Thanks.

Re: Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version
 

Ah, NOW I see that "Tips" section of the help - I figured the rather narrowly focused separate doc for RUU was the extent of the documentation, so did not think to look elsewhere. I suppose you are referring to item #3 in the Known Issues:

"3. As stated above, if have an Apache 2.04/2.05 bootloader (put the phone in bootloader mode and the version number appears at the bottom of the screen) then you may experience problems attempting to put anything except very lightweight ROMs on your phone using this kitchen. There are instructions in the Apache forum at PPCGeeks.com (and help in the chatroom if you need it) to get your phone back to 2.02 bootloader. If you are running a 1.0x bootloader then you should be able to use this kitchen fine."

I doubt I would have connected that with "Rev/OS type" (correcting that should be quite helpful - thanks), and so would not have even known to ask about it. I just got lucky with the mental light flashing on when seeing "v1.04" like what is on my BL screen (for a while there, I thought my 6700 would not get back into BootLoader mode - takes a lot of "finesse" with 2 buttons, and the stylus to make it happen, but I think I have that down pat now ;-).

Sorry, but this stuff is so new to me, and there is SO much piecemeal and jargon-filled info coming at me, that I just cannot always absorb or recognize what is pertinent. I just hope that by "pointing out the obvious" (obvious to you old pro's ;-) that it might help some other dazed newbies like me.

Maybe I could contribute the basis of a "Glossary for Newbies" to pull together some of this info I have been having so much "fun" assembling into a frame of reference that I need in order to make sense of technology like this (been doing that for 35 years as a programmer/admin - just the way I operate).

I had no concept beforehand of the significance of the bootloader version for the BuildOS process (which, BTW, is a very impressive piece of compiler design/execution). It worked just fine with my 2.02 "trial" unit with no change in that respect, so I did not notice anything about it that would pertain to my 1.04 unit.

pax,
Rokky
