How to Install Windows Mobile 6.1: The Guide

I made this little walk through so that maybe we can get rid of some of the common questions that get asked way too much. This guide will walk you through the process of app unlocking your phone, upgrading the rom, setting up the keyboard and setting up your connections. Beyond that, you are on your own. Please let me know if you have any issues.
Click below for the pdf:
Windows Mobile 6.1 - The Step By Step Guide
Fine Print: This guide was written using Rickwyatt's v.24 ROM. For Kavana's install, just click on the ROM file and follow from there.
I know this method to work. I took all the screen shots as I was flashing my phone. I never once got any errors.
as usual...any questions, PM Mikey.
(mods: 1.8mb is too large to attach???)

good work gixxy! i will sticky this..... i will also see if we can put this on the FTP here.

Great job gixxum this will be a great guide for the noobs.

Very clean procedures.
I used these to set up my phone and it was very nice.
Thank you.

this is what i've been looking for, a walkthrough. Thanks a bunch. You're the man!

Great work! keep it up brahh

Pretty nice guide Gixxum... I wish this was around when I did mine! (I went through 2,000 something pages before I decide I was dangerous enough to flash my phone)... This will come in handy when I eventually flash my phone to version 24 of ricky's rom. Keep up the good work!

i made the guide because this process is so easy...but if you are new to it, and do anything out of order, you end back here asking the same questions and getting flat out frustrated.. im hoping that this takes away that issue.
i figured by actually flashing my phone and documenting the whole process, that this is the most accurate way to do it. anyways...good luck guys/gals

Great Job Gixxum!
Great Job - I knew you had a soft side and not all tough as you come across at times!! I believe I have finally gotten my phone working! Now, I hope I get my nerve to add and change some settings. AND yes - I am going to read all the postings before I ask...
Out of curiosity - when my phone boots up and shuts down it has HTC and no mention of S620. Not a big deal, I don't care what it says as long as it works but I saw somewhere on a post that theirs says HTC S620. Just wondering...
I am not subscribed to any internet plan, just rely on wi-fi so I will try to make this work and be happy as a fiddle as us Southerners say!!!!!!!! plus can't say what I'd like to say here.........

You are right!

flashing the dash
When you entered all the connection set ups I have a question I have an unlocked tmobile dash I"m useing an AT&t card do I enter [email protected] info for connection stuff or tmobile cause it was first programed for tmobile?
Other than the keyboard thing is there anyother things that need tweeking like bluetooth or voice ? One more question could I go back and relash with say the rogers version of the rom if something went wrong with this one/ Thanks

you will select whatever carrier you use..in your case you would select att/cingular (whatever they are now).
nothing really needs tweeking...meaning everything should work.
yes you can reflash with an OEM rom and you can find those files in one of the sticky's on this forum

Great Job! Keep up the good work.
I'm going to try and see if i can get the guide to show up here rather than going to a link.
P.S: I have edited the title.

yea i tried all i could and i couldnt get it to post in a good format. plus, the site wont let me link to more than 4 pics per post. i would have left it as a web page on my site, but i dont know how much traffic would be generated. so my last resort was to just make a pdf and host it on my box and hope for not too much traffic. so far so good.
you guys can take this and do what you want with it. just made it to offset my ability to be the biggest prick ever.. i figured i owed the community something. =P

lol you definitely owed the community after being a prick but turns out your actually a nice guy....
good job, though - i remember when i wrote the guide to upgrade from 5 to 6 and most people found that really helpful. see, when you have a guide, it just makes life so much easier than going around hunting for information.
having everything in one place makes it easier not only for noobs but experts too.
I'm working on getting everything on here. Hopefully, everything should work out.
Once again, Great Job ! Thanks for supporting this community.
P.S: by tommorow, I will be deleting posts in this thread including mine that does not have anything to do with the post.
No more thank you posts, only questions. Do you agree? Yes, I would love for everyone to say thanks to you but this way, we can keep it clean. I hope you know where I'm coming from. When I wrote the guide, even though - yes people did ask questions, which was fine but it just kept growing because most users would simply say thanks.

Oh yea, can you do me a favor? If you have all the images in one place..can you send me a folder...maybe a rapidshare link or something because I'm having a hard time getting the images off your pdf file, not really hard - just taking too long.

[Q] [question] flahing a rom and keeping mobile data?

I just git this metro pcs wildfire s and I have read that I can flash a Rom without rooting since I unlocked amy bootloader, however I can not find anything saying that if I do I can keep my mobile network data, sorry for posting this if it is answered somewhere else, if that is the case I would appreciate a link. Thanks guys.

Do you mean your mobile network settings? If so I can answer your question, your sim card has those importen settings saved, so if you turn on your phone with the new rom everythink will work on its own

Yes but that's on a gsm phone, and my metro pcs wildfire is a cdma. And I read that the metro cdma loses mobiledata when rooted.

I'm running the same phone, rooted, with a stock+a2sd ROM. Mobile data works great.

i wish i could take a thanks away from you... losing faith in xda here, these loser noobs are answering questions for people and the guys that know are nowhere. i did in fact take your advice and flashed stock sense to my metro phone, now i have no mobile network access, it started as soon as i flashed the stock sense marvelc rom and even when i restore my backups and such i have no mobile network. i saw in a different post that someone is working on a fix for this problem, i hope so.
in short, bobdamnit you have been less than unhelpful and should keep out of things that are not addressed to you!
i only wanted an answer from a dev, or someone who has had this problem and fixed it.

Wow! I feel your pain, dude.
I, too, have witnessed garbage responses coming in from certain members of the community who (I'm sure, if asked) consider themselves to be the greatest thing to happen to the Internet since streaming porn.
Because of the useless replies coming in, I actually included a disclaimer in Post #1 of a question thread I started (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487627&page=5) and got so much grief because of it! In the end, I think you will see I was justified, though.
I asked that only those who actually know the answer, please respond. I also said to please not respond with a certain type of answer (because it misses the point). Sure enough, both my caveats were violated. And now, some elitist members are trying (emphasis on TRYING) to make me look bad, but failing miserably. The beauty of an email thread is that you can always scroll up and read what everyone wrote. The issue here is that some folks took HUGE offense when I told them their answers were off the mark (because they were!). There were a couple of folks with helpful insight - which I thanked, but those posts of mine were conveniently ignored.
I even had one developer proclaim that devs hated the android community, and yet I am the one being rude?! Simply stunning.
Kudos to you for sticking to your guns and I hope you eventually find the CORRECT resource (on this forum, would be nice) to help you through your WFS issue.
It is for those reasons that I am giving you your first Thanks!
Thanks for posting such a note. Hopefully others will open their eyes because of it.

[rom]{dev}Help port rom to CSpire gs3

Hey guys,
After many attempts and long hours of research and trial and error, I have decided that none of the Sprint GS3 roms will work completely on the CSpire GS3. All functions work properly with the exception of data. I have pulled my stock PRL and loaded it to several different roms after a fresh flash and not once was data achieved. That tells me that there is either some settings that need to be altered or some code needs to be changed. I unfortunately have a very limited understanding of coding in linux. I as well as many other new GS3 owners would really appreciate a dev looking into this matter. Contact me and I will be willing to get you whatever information you need. Thank you very much?
I apologize if this is in the wrong area, but i felt that since this could result in a new rom, that the devs needed to see this post.

OK so i pulled my RIL file and flashed CM10 pasted RIL in LIB and rebooted, still no data. If this is not the correct way for use stock RIL in CM10 please let me know. It appears as if CM10 does not know how to control my radio. Any devs wanna help tackle this project? If so there would be many CSpire GS3 owners that would be very appreciative.

Ya why go and post in the wrong section? Its not like people didnt respond to your other one. I've personally PM'd 3 or 4 people in the other thread including the OP of both. Posting in the wrong section is not going to help you here. Try answering the people who offered help already rather than pissing off others by posting the same thing here

Trust me, I voiced what most people think. If every one who had a question for a dev, would start a new thread in development, then it will just become a question and answer thread. Only development belongs there.
Thankfully it's in the right section now and hopefully someone can help you guys.

If you could pul to RIL files from the stock rom on your phone you could possibly replace them

No. Currently on cspire 20005 prl. And without a flashable prl file I'm not willng to risk flashing a sprint prl.

Cant get dfs or qpst to see my phone so cant back up prl. But I'm in agreement that I dont think the prl is the issue. I think it has to do with something in the code being different for our phones. Maybe something along the lines of the issues that the verizon users were having with the RIL. I'm away from my computer so I cant get u a copy of my stock nandroid backup, but will do that as soon as I get home from work around 3 this morning central time.

I got one posted in the other thread. Straight up restored it to my sprint gs3. Works better than the actual sprint one. I made a ROM and Odin restore which I'll post in a minute.
AND TO ANY STOCK ROOTED USERS ON SPRINT: I recommend flashing it. Works perfect and stock tethering is fully functional. Worth trying out
Did you try to flash any tw roms? It might be something in the rom. Try the jb leak for the sprint one. Might get lucky

[SOLVED][HELP] Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-i747(M) ? SIM Unlock?

Hello, a friend of mine bought a S3 from america but now lives in germany, the phone only had english, canadian and french as system languages, so i rooted it for him and installed a custom rom, carbon rom 4.2.2 and have set it on german, but whenever i insert a sim card it asks for a network code and he cant call or have 3g because he doesnt have network.
what should i try to do, change the apn settings?
i also tried editing the nv_data.bin, but since its a custom rom there is none in the root efs folder of the device, i really need help making this device working, any advice or suggestions?

Please search before posting as this has been covered numerous amounts of times... You have to be on stock to get the unlock pin prompt and it you want to free unlock there is a thread on that as well.....

Doesn't Work For AT&T SGH-I747
Hey, While you're busy being a demeaning know-it-all you should know that procedure DOESN'T work for all the Stock AT&T phones.
I have a Stock AT&T SGH-I747
After Selecting PERSO SHA256 OFF and going back my number 4 option reads: "[4] RAT_FREE_SUPPORITNG ON"
I did not mis-spell that either.
It would be nice if you could help instead of acting superior.

There's no crying, I just tire of some of the brainiacs here acting superior instead of actually helping. I did see that, however I'm also not sure about how to go about doing that and "some" people suggested trying it anyway, so I did.
Everyone is aware you can go buy an unlock code for $25-$30, and it will work around all of these little roadblocks, but we're supposed to be here to help each other. So, someone much smarter than you figured out how to do this to the phone in whatever version the phones current state is.
You're just quoting other people, not offering any help
Now, if "You" are aware of a procedure to accomplish this the way the phone sits then please offer some help, otherwise Lose The Attitude and try treating people with a little respect.

Pretty simple if you ask me, which you just did. Flash back to stock 4.1.1, spend the money, or call your carrier and try your luck with them.

Do you think I needed your input to figure out the "spend the money, or call your carrier" options?
I wanted to try the forum to see if I could find a way to do it Safely and without spending any money.
Over the years there have been quite a few intelligent and helpful people and they have provided valuable information.
You, however have only proven your uselessness to everyone. In the future either help or keep quiet!

The method you are trying which is, using the dial pad to access the phone settings and not purchasing an unlock code or calling your carrier, only works for 4.1.1 which you obviously are not on currently, hence your predicament. Since you lack the skills to search and read how to downgrade, like you stated, the only other options are to purchase the code or call your carrier. He gave you all three options that work and you are saying he is useless? Your comments are the most useless comments I have read in a long time. It's like trying to make sense out of nonsense. You are asking for something that doesn't exist and it doesn't take much "intelligence" to figure that out. Good luck.
P.S. I have a 66 Thanks Meter and only 156 posts. How helpful are your posts?

Wow, I hope you made yourself feel better now. Are you two related somehow?
Look Dink! - For Starters this was back in December, is your life that empty?
Second, I'm not the one claiming to know everything, apparently you do...
As I stated, I came looking for help and "good" advice.
You Are Truly Pathetic.
You obviously have nothing to offer either
Please find someone to change your diaper
And In the future either Help or Keep Quiet!!!
You whiney little thumbsucker.

Its 2014 and you're still complaining about a post in 2013???
Your life must be exciting!
Wow
First, do not insult anyone. Its easy to sound tough over the internet. I can bet and guarantee that you would never in your life walk up to someone and say any of that.

Second. This isn't a help website or a walk thru guide. Go to YouTube. The only one being a "thumbsucker" here is you due to the fact you keep crying about this, and looking for someone to hold your hand. Use the damn search feature and do work for yourself.
Third. As of now, no one will help you, you're screwed. So good luck "though guy"
Take your own advice and insults.

did you have any luck … I’m having the same issue…. and as far as the senior advisor that chooses to mock people that are seeking help… well that is just childish and unworthy of his title here… I thought this was a help community…. Very disappointed.

One you replied and disappointed by a very old post.
Two if you search you will find the root method right here that works on all versions, we don't like to spoon feed , when you have problem or stuck many will help, you ask how to do something that has been asked 100 times and already available, well you asked for it.
Three learn how to ask help, simply writing can someone point me to the root post will make many to post, instead of you writing all this useless crap.
Four simple looking not even searching will made you see these...

no worries mate, I’m not one to be spoon fed. I can handle my queries. I think the dignified way to have done things would have been to post a link with to the proper direction. like this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38886073#post38886073
which is asked 100 time and seen by your eyes you would have know where to send someone instead of posting that humiliating note to the other user. I think it would have taken less energy and would have made a difference instead of being a negative experience to the novice.
by the way that is the link to the root method and instructions on how to do it. and here is the link for the you tube video on how to do it step by step…

I’m just saying … if you dont have anything nice to say … just dont say anything at all ….

I actually found the info I was looking for shortly after I posted the original response… I hope you understand that I was not directing anything at you. I dont get why you are taking offense to the post as it was not meant for you.
Thank you for your effort to try and help. it is commendable. there is no need for us to quarrel over egos
Again thanks for your help and effort.

I did that because you pointed towards kimitza, now he might not be correct all the time, his answers might be rude, but he is the one answering most of the queries here, plus don't know how many private messages he might be getting.
Think this way, if i talk about me, I'm here for 4 years answering same type of questions for different devices all those years, and i usually jump in the post if some one didn't replied for some time, instead some people will post to every question when they see it, they are bound to get agitated over time.
