Yes. I selected v2.02 and VZW for the carrier.

I am going uninstall BuildOS, reboot, then download the newest BuildOS.msi from ppckitchen.org and try it again.

If that doesn't work, will try the loading via SD Card. have not done that before but will give it a shot if all else fails.

Why did you select 2.02 if you have 1.00? That's your problem. You selected wrong RUU.

I have 2 different 6700's.
1 is a UStarcom branded phone that is on VZW network. That phone is bootloader v2.02.

The 2nd is a VZW branded phone and is Bootloader 1.00. I use this one as my everyday phone.

THe UStarcom branded phone I use as a test phone for new ROM's.

Try flashing a stock ROM to upgrade bootloader. That might work...

Should I update the 2.02 to what, 2.04? Anyone have a link for the Stock rom that has 2.04 Bootloader?

It would be 2.05. Try an AKU3.3 from Jabu's thread.

No matter what I try in vista, i get blank notes next to all the current versions and when i proceed it gives a rom utility error stating that this upgrade utility was not designed for this device. I am selecting 2.02 from the Rev list which matches my Bootloader. Works just dandy on my XP machine though. The phone was a refurb from verizon and came with the 2.05 bootloader but i downgraded to 2.02. However i had the same issue with my previous 6700 and it came with the 2.02. Any Ideas?

P.S.
From my understanding you do not want to go past 2.02 because 2.04 and 2.05 reduce the size of the kitchen you can cook to an almost unusable amount. infact the norm is to take a device with a 2.04 or 2.05 and downgrade to 2.02.

Not at all. 2.04/5 works great with Vista, and the whole thing about needing to more to the ROM is stupid. Running a clean ROM is better and 2.05 can hold enough. But, I downgraded a 2.05 device to a 2.02 and now any RUU beside NoID gets a model ID error. I never had a device with 2.02 because I am on Verizon and they don't have 2.02 But I knew someone with Sprint and it worked for him.
