Windiws Vista and Rom

[spiritofseth]

I was trying to change my rom in Vista RC2 yesterday and could not get past the bootloader screen. it was late and I didnt get to mess around with it nemore.
has anybody had any success in this?

To the best of my knowledge, you need Active sync version 4.1 to make progress with ROM upgrade.

Are you able to sync using the new Windows Mobile Device Center? That is, can you do more than sync music like in RC1? If not you still might need to do the WHOS hack to get the device download.

You still need the hack.

I got it to work once by putting the device into bootloader mode first. But that was with RC1-5728. Did you give that a try?

Yes I did try and got frustrated. Read the wiki and found the info I posted above. For those interested, MS just released WMDC beta 3 today (http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Microsoft_Windows_Mobile_Device_Center_x86/1160408330/1)

Please point to the "wiki". Is it on this forum or elsewhere. Thanks for the link to b3 of WMDC.

Sorry dude, this was some time ago. I read it up either in WIKI or on the forum. And I have always used Activesync 4.1. Tried others and WMDC without luck.
