RUU Works in Vista RTM!

Hi. I`ve finally found the way to connect mtty and run rom update utility in Vista. tested on rtm 6000.
First of all, connect your device when it`s in bootloader.
next, open Windows Mobile Device Center and in connection settings uncheck Allou USB Connections.
next, goto contol panel-administrative tools-services and start windows mobile device connectivity and windows mobile device 2003 connectivity
next, goto device manager and find your device and update the driver to the one from AS 4, i attached it, wceusbsh.inf.
then, kill wmdc.exe with any taskmanager
You are Ready. run ruu or connect MTTY. I guess that vista default driver uses another port, not WCEUSBSH001, that`s why we have to use the old driver.

Didnt work for WM6 update
is this supposed to work for the WM6 upgrade?
Didnt work for me.

Attached the files for x64 version of vista (taken them from x64 XP).
Drivers are unsigned, so you have to turn off driver signature enforcement in vista. Google how to do this.
And yes, this can be used to upgrade uni to WM6.

No this method did not work for me for O2 Atom.
Using Vista Business with released final windows mobile device driver. No use. Able to sync perfectly. But RUU ROM update is failing. Trying to disable the firewall also no good.

omg thank you so much for this! i was trying to downgrade my hermes from 1.06 to 1.04 CID but vista's windows mobile device centre or whatever its called is dodgy as hell and i couldn't run RUU. you are a god send, thanks again!

yes, this is working out very well with vista.
Thank you.

Vista cannot find drivers for Hermes after flash
I used these drivers to allow me to flash my Hermes with the latest Cingular image. After the device reboots, Vista no longer recognizes it. Vista prompts me to search for a driver but cannot find one. Is this related to installing the back-level drivers above? Anyone know how to recover from this?
Thanks!

No joy....
This did not work for me. I'm running Vista Ultimate and a TMO MDA.. I hope there is a solution soon.. I really want WM6 on my phone, but I don't want to have to have an XP machine around....

Thank You! Worked for me, using Vista Ultimate.

Thank you! It works...

I was also unable to get this working. I am running Vista Enterprise RTM. I followed the steps in the list exactly, and also tried restarting the services (they were already started) and killed mobsync.exe (Sync Center). No such luck . RUU crashes while trying to read information from my phone. Has anyone who had problems earlier got it working yet?
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm having difficulty updating the Build in driver with the one you supplied. As soon as I try to update the driver I get a meesage saying the one installed is already the most recent. As soon as I uninstall the original driver it is redetected and reinstalled.
Anyone have any help on this.
Thanks,
Tom

Right click on the device and click "Update Driver Software"
Click "Browse my computer for driver software"
Below the textbox, click "Let me pick from a list of devices on my computer"
Now you can click "Have Disk" and choose the drivers you downloaded
Pick the device it pulls from the .inf file
Step through the rest of the wizard and you should be set.
The wording of the buttons may vary but should be similar to what you have (I'm running Vista).

RUU Version
What version of the RUU software is working, I tried the 2.00.1 that came with the 2.61 radio upgrade and it did not work.

I, too, am using 2.00.1. I'm going to try these steps on one other machine I have that's running Vista. We'll see what happens!

Thanks for providing a solution that works on Vista.
Upgraded my Hermes using mtty and RUU, no problems with the driver posted.

vista sucks big time...
best way -> uninstall -> xp

That zip file is corrupt. Anyone else know where I can get it?
Also, why do the steps in the first post say to uncheck "Allow USB connections"? When I do that, I can't find it in the device manager.

it workes finally but i realised that the 2.00.1 RUU is problematic, older versions work fine

Cant flash Diamond ROM in Mac?

Config: MacBook Pro, Leopard, Parallels, XP.
Have downloaded the new official norwegian ROM, start it in XP, get bootloaderscreen on Diamond, then this message on Mac:
"USB device you are trying to connect to the virtual machine is being used by another application. Close that application or unplug the device and plug it again. Then try to connect the device again."
Cant find any programs using USB at all, also tried clen startup.
On P3600 upgrading ROM on this config is no problem.
What do I do wrong?
HP

Did you start up parallels before or after connecting your Diamond to your mac?

I'm on a 20" iMac,
I'm using bootcamp for XP and that works fine. I think your problem is that when you connect a usb device to your mac, Leopard loads it in a certain way. Maybe iSync or Missing Sync detects your device (check for the iSync logo in your toolbar). Try to disable iSync and check if Leopard mounts your MDA as a disk).
I'm not on my mac right now but i will check if i can find the problem when i get home.

New Bootloader solved the problem.
Thanks for answering.

problem upgrading i780 to win6.1 using vista

im using version DXHD1 and i try to upgrade it to win6.1 using the link
http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/i780/sg/subDx_Vista.jsp#
For vista OS, i used the instruction as specified in
http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/i780/sg/howto_vista.jsp
Following the steps above, right after the i780 updater verified the attached phone, it reset my i780. after my i780 reset, the i780 updater just froze. I did this for several times and again, the updater just froze The update doesn't continue.
Does anyone know what's going on here?

try to unplug your USB and plug it back?

i also had that problem on 2 of my PCs with Vista OS so i gave up and used an XP one, just to be sure.

thanks for the replies. I tried unplugging the usb, and even used the xp but it didn't work.
Is there any other way to upgrade without using samsung's upgrader?

1. Put your i780 into bootloader mode before you plug it in to the usb. <----- IMPORTANT!
2. Now, open the pdf file (attached to this post in the zip file) and follow the instructions to install drivers for ur usb.
Its quite simple, you should have no problems. I've also attached Mirage update for convenience. This works on my windows 7 lappie. I also enable compatibility before i run mirage update. These are my settings -
1. right click the mirage update exe file and go to properties, then head to compatibility
2. choose "Run as administrator"
3. Run with Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode on.
It should run fine!
Cheers

WMDC on Windows 7 RC1

WMDC was working fine for me until I upgraded to RC1 of Windows 7. It did tell me as I upgraded that WMDC wasn't compatible. The only thing I have installed which isn't in fact. Windows own mobile device centre is the only thing not compatible that I had!?!?!?
Anyway, I guess I'll try a reinstall, but does anyone know how I can get it WMDC working again?
(I'm using Dutty's 3.3 and W7 RC1 64bit)

Hi. Now I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate RC Evaulation copy. Build 7100 and everything is working fine. Even rom upgrades working with no poroblem.

hey guys - I'm using RC1 too but the 64-bit - never tried to use it to flash my device though (dual boot with XP)
its the last piece of the puzzle I need in order to migrate completely to W7 and wave goodbye to WinXP.
can you both confirm which versions you are using please? and if 64-bit did you have to install the vista 64-bit driver found on these forums or did it work 'straight out of the box'?
thanks

I have 32-bit version of Windows 7 RC. I just connect mine HTC TOUCH HD to PC and Windows install the drivers and Windows Mobile Device Center install automaticly. Now everything is working. cheers

As I said, I have 64 bit and WMDC wont even start for me

I have Win 7 RC1 64bits, and Duttys HD V2,4
You need to uncheck Enable faster data sync in Settings/Connections/USB to PC..
That dit the trick for me...

Hi! I have 2 notebooks, one with win7 rc1-32bits, the other with win7 rc1-64 bits. I connect my Touch HD on both, succesfully.

Htc Touch HD Aka Blackstone
Windows 7 RC (Build7100)
Everything works GREAT!!!
Flashing, synchronizing!
Must be your config

Windows 7 RC x64 here, can flash without problems, after downgrading HTC-USB drivers to active sync drivers

Windows 7 here X6. Everything works perfect

I'm using Windows 7 RC1 64BIT without any problem.
Have you upgraded from Windows 7 Beta to the RC?
Than you must uninstal WMDC before. After the upgradeprocess reinstall WMCD again.

This fixed it for me. Thanks

You shouldn't need to disable faster data connections. The reason that this method works is that it detects a new device and installs new drivers.
There are a few things to do, I am not sure which in particular does it, but I'vbe upgraded Windows 7 many times and some combination has always worked.
Reinstall WMDC 7.1
Manage partnerships and delete them all.
When you plug in your phone go to device manager, find your phone (if faster data connections is shown, it will be listed as a portable device and a Lan connection)
click "uninstall" on these items, and delete drivers if this option is available.
unplug phone. Wait
Plug it back in.
Let it install drivers
If this still doesn't work. Click on the devices (network connection and portable device) selelct "upgrade drivers" on each, searching the internet.

To be honest, now it works I'm not going to mess with it unless I have to. Will it be a slower transfer to the HD?

Hi all,
I had similar trouble with Windows 7 RC, however I followed the instructions posted at: http://capitalhead.com/articles/ena...synchronization-on-windows-7-x64-and-x86.aspx and that did the trick.
If I'm not mistaken, Windows 7 is supposed to download WMDC automatically, however it never did that for me. Hope it helps someone else.

w7-64bit RC1 here....
WMDC works fine (stock install) - use it both at home and at work, and i flash by renaming and copying rom image to SDcard\blacimg.nhb

Unistall
Try to uninstall WMDC and download and install another one from the internet! It work for me and i had the same problem...

W7 and Blackstone here. Flashing Syncing ... works great.

I know this thread is old but I am having this problem and none of the suggestions I have found out on the internet have solved it. I am basically having the same issue as most people in this thread have had but the REAL problem is that Windows Mobile Device Center will NOT install no matter what I try. I run the setup for it and it looks fine until it gets to 1 second left on the progress bar. Then it sits...and sits...and sits...until finally the bar rolls backward and the installation quits. No error messages, no nothing and no WMDC. I am running Win7RC x64. I will never get syncing working if I can't get WMDC actually installed in the first place. I did look in the event log and it seems there is an error related to VSS every time I attempt an install on this app. Anyone have any ideas?

Can't update flash - USB cable problem

Hi members of XDA-Developers. I'm new here and just getting my self into this with updating my Windows Mobile 6.1 to 6.5 on HTC Touch Pro. I've read the guide how to do and got all the necessary programs, but run into a problem.
Can start by mentioning that I use parallels desktop on my mac with active sync. When I get to the step where I will update my flash with "RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3.exe" it does everything fine until I press the "update" button, accept the program on my phone and then the phone close down and my computer unplugged the USB cable for some reason! Get an error message that the USB cable is not connected?
Why it does this I spent last 3 hours to find out and also browsed all possible topics on this forum for an answer! Grateful if anyone can help me out on this one.

I would try redoing it on a pc

Well I thought that would help as well so guess I just install windows on my mac with bootcamp instead.
Strange tho that I got this problem. Read that everyone else recommends to use parallels desktop?
