How are you trying to update it? With a stock ROM or one of this forums new flavors of 6.1?

ive tried updating it with kavanna and another rom, both didnt detect my dash when the screen was white, and i cant download the update from t-mobiles website

Here is the latest T-Mobile ROM Dash_Software_Update_1.22.531.8 try it and let us know what happens.

im guessing everything went well since my rom version is now 1.22.531.8 and before the last number was 6, so should i try everything out again?

Okay in all seriousness, obviously I need to flash my now WM6 device w/ a WM5 ROM. And back to what I said originally, it times out on this update. I've read reports of this problem happening to others as well.

look around, there's probably atleast 2 posts in the last 2 pages about where to get it.

I've already gotten it. That's not the issue, but thanks. Like I said, I have the ROM.
However, the update times out. If you search for that on this message board, you'll see that others have had this problem as well. I'm just looking for some guidance, not someone telling me to "search for it."

yeah, i did it no problem. on vista a tried for like 2 hours straight. then first time on XP worked like a charm. did you let it sync and everyhting first, then try doing it? i believe it helped some people to revert back to the 'upgrade rom' it puts it back to one of the first roms for updating, then going to the newest WM5.
oh wow an upgrade ROM... I've never heard about this... any ideas where to find it?? I already have the ROM I want to revert to. Thanks.
http://rapidshare.com/users/7UE30C
then click 'Dash Files ID=1' then on the bottom you'll see "RUU_Excalibur_SPL-1.11_UpgradeOnly.exe" download that and run it, I tried it on Vista, didn't work, but nothing worked for Vista. It's worth a shot.
hello can you help me?
Hello do you have it in another place not in rapidshare? the wm6 beta

if it were to late wouldnt it be just "dead"
i would really appreciate if you could help
You have a GPS enabled ROM with a non-GPS enabled radio. Please upgrade your radio.

Ok ok.
First off, READ before flashing! If you did, this wouldn't have happened.
Next, what OS are you using? XP? Vista? Are you running it inside of a virtual machine? (like inside Mac OS X) Because that could brick your device.
Did you try unlocking your device before you flashed the ROM? You must do this before flashing to custom ROMS.
What does your bootloader screen say? What are your ROM and Radio versions?
you need to upgrade your radio 3.42.50 then reflash the ROM...
Wonder if he got it fixed?

Tilt2 tethering help

HI im having some very big problems with my tilt2. I can teather it fine but for some reason after a day or two i get the remote party has ended the connection, and no matter what i do to it, weather it be uninstall the script and speed patch and reinstall it, it wont help. so i have to format the phone and load it all over again and it works fine for about 2 days tops. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening? I seem to be formatting this phone every 2 days just to get it to teather.
i had the same thing happen to my kaiser with the stock att rom what i did was flash the rom and radio. after that problem was gone never happened again. you can also try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538874
i don't know if this is of any help to you. After you get the error message can you still connect with active sync?
nope
after the errormessage i cant connect on the internet at all, i have to formatt the phone and reload everything to get it to work again
Rom and radio
What rom and radio do you reccomend for the tilt2 thats stable
i remember getting that error on my blackjack, it was mostly because i let it idle and data disconnects when not in use. its not like its a stable connection. if you wanted that you buy the crappy little usb card.

the rom i'm using right now is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=617142
and Radio 4.49.25.91 i found the link on the same page.
if you're new to flashing i suggest you go here first http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540 it helped me out alot
Possible solution
The above mentioned "idle" problem is more than likely your culprit. I had a similar problem as well with the stock ROM. I suggest using NRG's Leo ROM to fix this problem. There are other solutions, but they are pretty tech savvy ones. Plus, if you haven't flashed your ROM yet, dude, you don't know what you're missing. The whole reason we're here is to push our phone's to the limit as far as functionality is concerned. Stock ROM's don't even cut it. Give a new one a whirl, I promise you won't be disappointed, plus, your reformatting issue will be gone as well, just a heads up from someone who's been around, you know?

[Q] Need Help!! First time EVO Root/CM6 gone bad...

OK....long story short...finally decided to delve into rooting and custom roms. Flashed CM6 yesterday and everything was going great. Then suddenly yesterday evening as I was swiping between home screens on my device everything froze, and I have been trying to recover ever since.
Anything I flash now just freezes, and i have a touch panel-fail so even when i do get a rom to boot i cant actually get into set it to usb mode or anything.
using bootloader i can not get it to connect using the adb driver so that I can push via adb.
about an hour ago I was successfully able to run the latest RUU and it ran successfully, but device is still way laggy (takes 15 minutes to boot) and no touch screen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! don't know where to go from here. From what I have read its not bricked because I can get into Bootloader and Recovery???
Just a shot in the dark here, but it sounds like since you're stock now it's an actual hardware failure.

Is there way I can verify that the RUU did indeed flash *EVERYTHING* back to stock?
It seen like you have a HARDWARE issues, Re-Boot the Stock Rom. Call Sprint and explain what's going on with your phone, please *DO NO'T MENTION YOU ROOTED YOUR PHONE* Tell them you try to wipe your phone and it was really laggy before you wipe, since you gonna Re-Boot the stock rom the phone is going to get UNROOTED, I know this cause I work at Sprint... So good luck...

I definitely wont rule out hardware issues...this is a refurb device i just swapped my original EVO for on Monday. I guess I just want to rule out any software issues for sure.
You mention that re-booting the stock rom will UNROOT the phone...however I hav no way to currently re-boot the rom??
Also looks like i can not get into recovery now, when I select the option in the bootloader it just takes me to the screen with a picture of a device and a red triangle

Get a Memory Card adapter for PC or use anything that will let you connect your SD card to your computer... As soon as you put the *ORIGINAL STOCK ROM* in your SD card your phone will do everything by itself...

Perhaps you're not understanding what I'm asking of you.
From the first post, it sounds like you are running an ancient unsupported build.
I'm suggesting you download that build, use it, and install LauncherPro on it.
What build are you using? Is my assumption correct?
Im using XDAndroid2.2BLAZN.092810
and im trying your build right now
It still says "An SD card is required to download this"...... What can I do?

Something's wrong with the set up because I just downloaded it from market and it d/l'd and installed fine. I know it's a PITA, but maybe try reformatting the card, reload Arrrghhh's stock FRX06, let it build a new data.img and then try reloading it again.
no i went to LauncherPro.com to get the latest version and it says that i need a SD card which already have one inserted

Well, when I searched for that (exactly) the second app made the most sense.
When I searched for 'launcherpro' (one word) I thought it would turn up less, but it turned up more... LP was still in the list, but like 6 down.
Download the one titled "LauncherPro". The others probably just have something related to LP in the description so it pops up... Welcome to search engines, w00t.

Wifi has worked for a really, really long time... Assuming you're not on a funky kernel, wifi should just work. Read the FAQ tho, there's a few devices that need some extra help for wifi to function properly.
