Pls can anybody help me - by instructing me on how to flash artemis using vista os. currently i whenever i need to flash my ppc i use my brother's labtop XP-SP2! i will be grateful if somebody can help!
is there any files to be added? if you can upload!
i use vista to flash in the same way i use XP.
only thing i do different is right click the RUU application that comes with the ROM file and run a administrator.

Hi,
I have VISTA RC1, everytime I try to load any rom I get connection error...any ideas how can I fix that?
Yeah .. switch back to XP. I've tried for days to upgrade from Vista and didn't succeded ... at a time I thought that my UNiversal has gone .... but when I tried again on an XP based system it worked flawlessly.

Same observations:
I have tried with vista ultimate final (msdn) with windows mobile device center beta-3 (because vista have'nt any activesync-like program) -vista can't recognise Universal in bootloader mode.
I found a resolution: format c: and reinstall any xp. (Or buy a second PC with xp)
Vista can't recognise the Uni, oh the irony.
M$ used the Uni as the showpiece for their all singing all dancing WM5 platform didn't they?

perhaps you can use the search function next time, there are a few more topics about this problem
How can we flash new ROM's onto the Universal in Windows Vista? I tried flashing PDAViet 2.00.04 to my Universal and recieved a 101 connection error. I went to the activesync website and it wouldnt install because it said that windows vista already has some tool that has outdated activesync.... well why isnt it working then?
on vista there's no more activesync but Mobile device Center
http://www.laboratoire-microsoft.org/whitepapers/17844/
Nope tried that. Wasnt working although just now I have just flashed PDAViet ROM on my Universal. Windows detects it fine and even sync's with it.
I have just tried Helmi's AKU 3.5 again and it flashed fine.
Once you've got WMDC up and runnign the sync works fine (even office 2007! Woohoo) but icant flash anything and have to use my old XP machien to do it on!
Maybe it depends on the version of the no-id flasher you use?
I tried to flash the device while in bootloader mode and wouldnt work. Does anyone know why sometimes your device remains in bootloader mode even after a soft reset? Its like there wasn't any ROM on the device? Even after a hard reset the device wont go out of the bootloader mode.
I couldnt flash My Universal, using WMDC in vista RTM. It simply doesnt work, i heard, and i think it does make sence, that the Actual Rom Update utilities are simply uncompatible with Vista. I think we will have to wait until Vista is Oficialy releast, wich is not that far away. But then, i think we will also have to wait till one of our Providers will release a new ROM, with a new Update Utility.

That happened to me as well on a numerous ocasions, its really annoying. I didnt really mind though, coz i was about to flash it anyway, and then it always got back to normal.
I dont know what to say... just be careful with what you are doing.

I´m using the Vista Business Version (Final).
My Universal would not sync so i downloaded and installed this:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...6a-a72d-4aef-9663-31ce2fefbada&DisplayLang=en
Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center Beta 3 for Windows Vista (x86)
It´s working now.
I have that installed too. It was installed during a Auto-update. Still wont update the device while in bootloader mode.
There is no driver in vista that presents the device as \\.\WCEUSBSH001 device. So the upgrade utilities cannot communicate with it.
I've tried to use the drivers from XP64, but they don't work (i'm using 64-bit vista enterprise).
not yet
I tried using Vista Ultimate x64, but no way using Windows Mobile Device Center beta 4. Xp still better for flashing devices, maybe in a few weeks we are going to test new dev tools.
heyy ppl i can't upgrade/flash my universal rom's in vista as well :-( i just upgraded my laptop to vista ultimate and well, i had downgraded my phone from AKU 3.5 to an orange branded latest rom from Orange website, now i wanna flash it to Crossbow but vista won't let me..maybe the developers here can cook something up for flashing in vista ? Anybody ?

Hi,
You may have heard this problem many times, I tried to upgrade my ROM and it failed a few seconds in because for some insane reason the phone rebooted during the upgrade, It now says USB on the top and v1.00, Tried hard reset but does not work, I have also tried to reflash the rom but I am using MS vista that uses an alternative to Activesync, so the upgrade says 202 connection error, Please can anyone help me!!!!

you need to downgrade your drivers... there's a way of doing it, but I've never done it myself, so you'll need to find someone else who has.

Activesync wont install on Vista, which to be honest would probably work fine it is stupid M$ prohibiting it to install,
The computer will detect the phone, it says Microsoft USB Sync, does it need to be a ceartain driver for this to work?
Really need help on this! Computer recognises PDA says Microsoft USB Sync, What is the correct driver, the updater is not recognising the phone
Please anyone if you have even a small idea please post it!!! PLEASE!

Yeah, sorry it took a while, for some reason this thread only popped up as new today???? strange...
For your problems... uninstall ActiveSync... reduntant in Vista, there the new WMDC (I take it you realise this?). After uninstall, connect your device and it will install WMDC with the appropriate updates, then you have to check this thread here....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723.
That thread may be dated and there may be a newer one, but there were many people using it successfully and I was one of them until I downgraded again to XP. Hope it helps.
BTW, Vista sucks A$$, it's just not ready for driver and program release, and if you get an independant memory and CPU monitor, it'll show you that the built in one lies through it's teath!!! But hey, each to it's own. Regards.
plz tell me dear how we connect in a dead stage
Other option would be to flash the ROM using a machine with XP, wich I find more easy than in vista
Hope it helps,
When I tried it in Vista I had a similar problem, I tried it on an XP machine no problems, am using Win7 now but dont know if upgrading the ROM will work yet, a bit risky.
When I try to flash using Mirage using i780PUHE1 it errors out on the phone portion. Anyone know why this happens? I've flashed EFN's ROMS before with success.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
You'll need the modem drivers. Search the forum for them, they are req'd only when flashing the phone bin.
Could be modem drivers
Could be your OS
Could be the bin file contains only the pda portion

I downloaded the drivers but for some reason, when it gets to the phone image, it fails on opening up the port.
OS is Vista

Try 1 computer with XP OS. Install the modem drivers, it should be able to work.
Alternatively, you can search for i780 flash with Vista.
Hope this helps.

I'll give it a try, thanks for the quick reply. I did a search and download the drivers from the link below, still failed. I'll let you know if it works in XP.

Ive got windows 7, Im trying to flash a new rom on a Touch HD but cant get past the first hurdle. When i try and run the USPL application it comes up with an error (and says to install new drivers). Ive followed a post about installing these drivers and still i get the same error. Could anyone help?
did you do it following these instructions?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
you have a section here that will lead you to another post were it is explained how to update your drivers.
do you have a 32bit or 64bit Windows 7?
Thanks for the reply. I followed the instructions from scratch again and it worked, i must have messed something up along the way. Flashing a new rom now... sweeeet!
Thanks again.
