Simple flashing guide w/Screenshots
Alright, since some people still have trouble flashing I will make a guide of my own for the Apache. There are others out there, but none with screenshots.
Step 1: Get the phone in bootloader mode by holding down the Power button the Record Button and your stylus in the reset hole. You will be given the dark bootloader screen saying "Serial" at the top and "v.X.XX" at the bottom, which is your bootlaoder version. http://img120.imageshack.us/img120/7405/step1b.jpg Step 2: If you are on a computer running Windows Vista make sure you have Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 installed. Now Open the program and go to "Connection Settings" and uncheck the first box, "allow USB Connections". http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/2302/step3x.jpg Step 3: Connect your Mini USB cable to your phone and straight into your computer USB port, don't use a hub or cradle. The Bootloader screen will now read "USB" at the top and the bootloader version at the bottom. http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/738/step2m.jpg Step 4: Run the RUU for your ROM. This step can be different for which ROM you are flashing. If you are using a stock ROM there will be an excutable you download then run, follow the directions and you will be fine. As for my custom ROM, open the folder and run the excutable, then follow the directions on the screen. http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/8312/step4.jpg Step 5: After the RUU is complete unplug the device and perform a hard reset, the go through device setup. If you turned off USB connections, turn them back on. http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/303/step5o.jpg If you have trouble on Vista read here. |
