All I did is run the .exe and it upgraded. I'm not sure what workaround youre talking about though. I run Vista Ultimate.
Ive had driver issues in the past though and had to reinstall mobile drivers.

You can flash any hermes ROM with Vista like in XP if you upgrade your WDCM to version 6.1
Regards.
I can confirm flashing under Vista works flawlessly.

Alright ROM upgrading lesson: plugin the Universal into the USB of your laptop or PC and make sure Activesync is installed and detects it on your laptop. Next run the executable file for the ROM upgrade and it should go smoothly. Just follow the instructions till the end of the ROM upgrade.
Now if you are looking for the best and most stable ROM's, xda-developers would be a good place for it. The reason why I dont like official shipped ROM's from companies is because they are outdated and usually lacking a lot of features. Orange ROM's are very slow and take up a lot of memory. Ofcourse company ROM's have their benefits like the Orange start menu and main menu looks completely different from all ROM's released to date, company ROM's also most likely contain more drivers to support things like blackberry connect software.
Now if you are looking for a nice stable/best/latest ROM xda-developers would be a nice place. You can download Helmi's AKU 3.5 ROM which is the best we have to offer at the moment and is also the best on the net. Helmi's ROM must be extracted, its in .rar format which is just like .zip and then you have to run the executable file in the folder you extracted it to. Everything will go fine if you follow instructions and dont do anything weird.
thanks nuclear
its this the rom you were referring to Helmi Rom AKU 3.2

thanks again nuclear...
another stupid question... hmmmm is there a procedure to install it inside the .rar file? or do i just simply connect my EXEC to my pc then run the installer on my pc?
thanks alot

download winrar and install it, right click on the file you downloaded and click extract to folder..to extract the contents of the rar file. Next you have to connect your device via USB and activesync must detect and synchronise with it. Then in the folder where you extracted the rar file there will be an executable file romupgradeutility or something. Just follow the steps it tells you and you shall be fine. Dont worry if the screen turns black or anything
try this

Hi all,
I'm a newbie and I try to flash my first ROM!
Therefore i'm looking for an simple and "up-to-date" step by step instruction to install windows mobile 6.X ROM GER (preferably Mossi's German ROM) on my P3300 (with windows mobile 5).
I know, that there are already a lot of posts concerning this topic, but I loose the overview!
Please help me!
Thanks!
First of all download and run (device have to be conneted by ActiveSync) Artemis Update SPL (USPL),
then just run RUU (in most cases: ROMUpdateUtility.exe) from extracted new rom archive.
Thats all.
Yours device battery must be charged

What Korro says, and for a general overview / read the rom section in the artemis wiki, or look here for a very brief step by step instruction by me
Strange: three different threads, helped with one instruction? Apparently some basic information isn't as easy to find as it should
Thanks to you both!
I got it! I flashed my HTC successfully!
Help please!
Hi,

It worked fine, the SD card was the problem..
I have the same problem with that error at 3%... I've tried to run start_uspl.exe first, but it doesn't start at all... I don't have either SD or SIM card inserted in the PDA.
What should I do?
Thanks.

I really don't know if there are any unofficial WM5 roms out there, in my case I know that the WM5 official rom is very well kept by my phone carrier.. I also tried to go back to WM5 some months ago and the only way I could was running hardspl to my device and flash back to a WM5 original rom (eventhough it wasn't my "real" official rom since I'm with TIGO a latin american carrrier) with T mobile and it ran ok in that moment. I just had WM5 like for 1 day and went back to 6.5, I really couldn't resist due to the other apps and easy tweaks that it currently have

Hope that helps,
I've trying to follow the instructions to flash my TyTn II.. to android
Do I need to have a WM6.1 ROM before proceeding? I'm currently running 6.0.
I've searched all over the place, 6.1 is no where to be found.. the link in this thread is broken..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=332246
in how-to thread for replacing Windows with Android there is step where it says that you should have HardSPL that matches your Windows ROM...
...maybe that's true, but i managed flashing my Kaiser with Hard SPL 3.25 on WinROM 6.0...no problems...and also flashed succefully radio, to version that matches my operator...also no problems...
...after that it's easy job...kernel and selected build.
so, try downloading HardSPL you want, and radio you need...flash them. I can't promise that it will work but it did job for me

No, you do not need 6.1. All you do is essentially flash the android kernel over WM. So essentially you just need hard spl and you should be fine. You flash it by going into the bootloader (multi colored screen)

Disagree. If e NEVER flashed a 6.1, he's using a very old Radio. At least a radio update should be made.
But you still don't NEED wm 6.1 to run android lol. Radio update is seperate.

True indeed. He could be running CE 0.0000001 for the matter
But you got my point If he doesn't flash a decent RADIO, tomorrow he'll be here saying that his kaiser running android is talking elvish to him and asking to fry eggs. Ah... and wifi doesn't work also, along with GPS
