Trouble switching back to wm5 verizon on xv6700
 

Ok, so i installed helmi wm6 on to my xv6700 and it works great...but the phone broke. During the process of upgrading to wm6 i had to go in and chane the bootloader to version 1.02. I am now attempting to load wm5 on it to send it in for a replacement from the utstarcom site and am getting a 101 communictions error....Please help!!!!

I assume you mean you changed the bootloader to 2.02 right? Second are you trying to load the AKU 3.3 update from VZW?

Steve

Yes and Yes

1.02 is what i see in bootloader mode though......

Any ideas? Have to send the phone back on Tue....I may just have to send it back with wm6 on it< would prefer not to if I could.....

If you are seeing 1.02 then I am not sure how the 2.02 process worked. There is an AKU 3.3 upgrade out in one of the forums that had the bootloader upgrade stripped out of it. I would try that also.

Let me know how you fare. If I can help any further please let me know.

Tried it again and recieved model error 100...not made for this device .cant find the aku 3.3 without bootloader< been looking all morning.

I have it...send an email to spetrillo@mail2web.com and I will email it to you.

No luck....stills ays error 100 model error.....

The 1 in 1.02 just means you have different flash hardware than the 2.x systems. Not a bad thing, as you can't ever have the cursed 2.04/2.05 bootloader (best you can do is 1.04 because once a 1.x system, always a 1.x system).

If you're sending it in, feel free to put the newer bootloader on it (the stock aku3.3 from verizon will install the 1.04 bootloader on your phone).

Based on your post, I take it you downgraded from 1.04 to 1.02 to install WM6? Easiest way to load a WM5 ROM will be to grab any premade one, copy it into the appropriate upgrade/ruu folder in the WM6 kitchen, and run the ruu .exe in that folder.
