Hi all
Having trouble installing Tomtom 5 on my SPV m2000. I have just upgaded to WM5 and activesync 4. Wen I run the installer for the TT5 application it errors and aborts . tried uninstalling Ativesync 4 including registry entries and tried reinstalling 3.8. Activesync doesn't detect my PDA now, I think I read somewhere that it relates to software in WM5 that requires activesync 4.
anybody any idea's how to get TT5 on my PDA without having to revert back to WM2002se?
:?
OK,OK! I know what ya gonna say! I have just found a string relating to the same prob and a resolution. orry for wasting ya time
Hi all.
Finally update my M3100 to WM6 (thanks to LVSM) and i can't connect with my Windows Vista desktop using latest driver from Microsoft.
I can connect with Windows XP box with Active Sync 4.5 without any problem.
Anyone get this working or am i crazy?
Thanks all.
Windows VISTA has a new activesync.
If you connect your device, you should see that Vista auto detects your phone.
But you can't install programs etc.
Then you have to run Windows Update to dowload an additional package, so you
can install programs etc.
So if your Vista ain't that legal, then don't try.
I had installed the XDA Live 0.1 last week without issues (via WinXP)
When I tried to upgrade to the 0.2 it hung in boot loader (tri-colour screen), while using Vista w/ AS4.5.
I had to hard reset to get it to go back to 0.1, but it hasn't really been the same since.
I d/l the new WM6 LVSM and tried to upgrade, but it also hangs in tri-colour mode.
Now is it a problem because I'm running Vista?

If I am not mistaking, you can't upgrade with Vista.
There is a workaround for it, but standard it's not possible.
Upgrade trough Windows XP.

Thanks I was thinking i could just use Vista.
I guess I should have just stayed on XP on my primary PC instead of upgrading to Vista so damn quick...LOL

Well, i expose my complete experience with Vista (of course legal copy )
I have one Qtek 9100 and one TyTN (SPV M3100 Spanish Orange).
days ago both of them with WM5 (original branded)
Yesterday move qtek 9100 to WM6, but can't do with Vista so i do in a VMWare Windows XP box running into Vista with VMWare Workstation (this works very fine). once the 9100 was WM6, Vista says taht the device is new and can't find the driver, but one day before works fine.
So today upgrade my TyTN with the same, put the RUU in the XP box, and works fine, but the same results in Vista and Mobile Sync. Works with SM5 but not with WM6. But in XP box, works with boths.
I think MS checks the OS version in Vista Sync, so you can't sync if the OS version isn't in the list of legal OS mobile.
I am running Windows Vista Ultimate and have WMXL 0.20 on my phone.
I can connect my phone to vista and i can browse my phone. I see the storage card and the internal memory.
You can't install application trough this.
If you want to install application when using Windows Vista, connect your phone with the USB cable, wait for Windows to detect your phone and install the drivers, then run Windows Update.
Then it will download an package so you can install applications.
Windows Vista uses the new Mobile Sync Center hence the RUU cannot connect with your PDA... if you replace the Mobile Sync Center drivers with the activesync ones you can get it to work...
there is a search button on the top right of this forum... as this topic has been discussed and answered many times before i suggest you use the search feature as it works wonders....
I installed Windoes Mobile Device Center on Vista, and I did not have a problem getting it to recognize my hermes w/ XDA-live 0.20. I did nothing special, just plugged it in, it was recognized, I configured it, and it syncs no problem.

Ok, i dosn't express correct. The question is the conectivity, not so only run RUU, but get acces to device.
With Vista (spanish version) i can't get acces to WM6, and i try two devices, Qtek 9100 and TyTN. a couples of days before both of them were with WM5 and can access without any problem. So i think Vista can read the version my devices says to be and be confused with the driver to use. Were can i find the drivers to make this work. Anyone says i can put activesync 4.5 drivers in Vista, is this correct?
So i must to connect to my XP box into VMWare and access trought this. so i can access and update usgin RUU.
Thanks.

I'm in your same situation.
Im my case, Vista dosn't find the correct driver for my M3100 with LVSW WM6 (perhaps i make a mistake installing, i'll reinstall Vista soon ) In XP box no problem to do that, and gain Internet connection from M3100 to get sync with Exchange server trought Internet.
How do you set the connection in Device Center?
Everything is working fine under vista for me.
I am able to:
-use ICS through USB, PAN
-manage installed programmes
-browse the device
...
I am using an english vista + an english WM6 tytn ROM
Anyone else notice that with XP and Activesync you can see and browse to your Windows folder on the PPC, but through Vista that folder is completely hidden and there seems to be no way to browse it??

You just need to enable viewing of System folders in Folder options
I'm using Vista since the first day and I have updated my TyNT with LVSW ROM and everything works.
Bluetooth activesync / USB activesync / Pairing with Outlook 2007 / Seeing all the files on Main Memory and Storage Card....
All put in one word, everything is perfect.
Only one thing hasn't worked : I haven't been able to update using Vista.
Hi guys,
I've upgraded my O2 zinc form WM5 to WM6 but in next restart after the upgarde the device hang during the booting and only shows the splash screen of Windows Mobile 6 ,,Now is there any way to recover form that?
can i delete the current ROM which i guess it's the main cause for killing my PDA ,i want to reinstall WM5 but ofcourse Microsoft ActiveSync can't connect to my O2 since it didn't log to the PDA didn't start windows .
Guys please help,,i'm very sad because of this.
yo bro!
first, be sure that you have the active sync 4.5. and try to reinstall it again to windows 6.
Yes,but
Thanks for the reply,,but the thing is Activesync 4.5 can't connect to my O2 since the O2 rebooted after the installation of WM6 .
Is there a way to remove compelety the installed version of WM6 "i.e Format my PDA" ?
Thanks,
Hi
I'm a newbie to PDA's, especially flashing the ROM. I have had previous experience of developing for Trimbles (Pocket PC 2003)
I have a Dell Axim x50v with WM5 A01. I'd like to upgrade to WM6. I've read that I have to first install WM5 A02 before installing WM6, however I've hit my first stumbling block.
I have downloaded the two packages that I need which were provided generously by MAGLITE as mentioned in an other thread. After unpacking the file to a FAT32 SD card then inserting into my Dell Axim x50v & pressing Power + Wifi + Reset, the SD loader simply informs me that there was "No suitable image found" followed by "Image update failed"
I've read that people have been able to successfully upgrade their PDA and I'm getting frustrated that I cant. I've tried other SD cards, even reformatted & loaded the install files several times.
Can anybody please help?????????
I figured this out. I believe, and I maybe wrong, that it was connected with the fact that my PC is Windows Vista. To actually resolve my problem I connected my cradle to my WinXP laptop and using ActiveSync 4.5, I managed to update my Axim to WM5 A02 using the "AximUpdate.exe" application. This worked perfectly.
NB: This approach did not work with Vista and Windows Mobile Device Centre software.
My next step is to now upgrade to WM6 or WM6.1
Hope this is useful to others.
Yes I know the Axim is really old but I never found a PDA I liked better. I am trying to update my wm2003 A03 rom to A05 so I can then update to WM5 A01 and then Wm6.0 on my Axim x50v. For some reason when I try to use the official utility that I download from dells website to update to the A05 rom I am having a problem. I connect to active sync 4.5 on a computer with win xp sp3 using my cradle and usb. Then I run the utility but the minute it starts to update (says 0%) I hear a noise, and then my x50v resets automatically and then the dell utility has an error message. I tried this on a another computer also running same operating system and got same error. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have searched an nod not found and answer.
Understand I still have A03 so the wifi+power+reset won't even allow me to get into the bootloader, because I think the A03 rom had a different type of loader than A05.
Thanks
