Hello, I am a noob to axim's and upgrading roms. I've been searching for about 3 days (obviously not in the right forums) for how to upgrade my Dell axim x50 from WM2003SE to WM5 then to WM6/6.1 and where to get the files to do this.....any help or direction to any thread or other website that could help me out would be greatly greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I've had in iPaq 5555 so im not completely dumb when it comes to PPC's
Please note that a WM6 rom for X50(mid) does not exist yet (I'm working on it). As for the update from WM2003 SE to WM5, you need to get your hands on a WM5 upgrade cd. For more information please see the X50 section at Aximsite.
Thank you

EDIT - Topic should be X51 not X50!!
Sorry if this has been posted already, but search tells me it hasn't.
Is there an upgrade for the Axim X51 (not X51v) from WM5?
If there isn't an WM6 image I would like to know if there is anything more recent than WM5 A12. I heard that there was a A17 ROM that was faster?
Cheers in advance
hello instead of reading , i have installed Windows Mobile 6.0 on my axim x51 when it didn't work i read that it was only for the x51v.

Does anyone know where to download the WM5 ROM files. I'm having tons of trouble finding it. Please help!!
Please help with my problem. Im a new member. I tried to upgrade my dell axim x50v directly from wm 2003 to maglites wm6. Now my axims all blacked out. When I put it on charge the led light is there but nothing comes on the screen. But the sd bootloader works and also the diagnostics mode. Please help me how can i bring it back to life. I really apprecitate your help thank you.
Did you flash the WM5 A02 bootloader nb0 file? Either way, I have a sticky on aximsite on how to save your axim in situations like this. Your best bet (at first) is to flash the WM2003 SE A05 os nb0 for X50v. If you want to upgrade to WM6 again, make sure you upgrade in steps (WM2003 SE A05 to WM5 A01 to WM5 A02 to WM6).
where can i get the wm5 files from help me

Hello,
i have a german Dell AXIM X50V VGA and want to flash the WM6.1 image on it. In the description of the image is a note:
Code:
You can only flash your x50v with these roms, if your device is running WM5 aku 2.3.1 or higher. If you attempt to flash over a WM2003 bootloader, you will brick your device.
but can somebody tell me how i get this WM5 aku 2.3.1 running on my X50V? And where is the download?
Trying some images of the board, shows the message that the language is not supported.
Please can anybody help me?
Thx
