Anyone knows how to install WM6 ?

[simple]

I down loaded WM6 but I do not seem to be able to install it on Hermes 100, can somebody help?

[vikramdhani]

hey where you got the wm6 i dont think it is available as yet

[Olipro]

he's downloaded a generic image from Microsoft.

the image is useless, you CANNOT get it onto your Hermes, or any other device for that matter; only HTC can do that.

launch setup.exe and follow the prompts. you need to have windows 3.11 for workgroups on your desktop PC with MSDOS 6.22.

No, you're wrong. He needs a dual-Itanium x64 CPU with 4GB of ram, 5TB harddrive (that's a "T" on purpose), and at LEAST Windows Vista Ultimate with Office 2007 Ultimate (all retail, and all activated). Then, you take the whole lot and throw it out your window and wait for HTC to put it on the device.

Where did you get this one from?

[abubasim]

"nk.nbf"? Good luck installing it :rolleyes:

Spank me if I'm wrong but the officially supported method to upgrade the ROM on the Hermes is through signed (encrypted) NBH files. Anything else is hanky-panky as far as HTC is concerned. So the package you found is most likely for another phone.

if i'm not mistaken, that's the Universal 'wm6cb' release, ie not for the hermes

heh ha heh

[shogunmark]

they are correct, this isnt the hermes wm6....

[simple]

I tried flashing and failed, but no damage done.
Have not tried the Windows and DOS methode it saound interesting!! I did try pushing it in thogh, haha...

[bashma]

that means that I cannot install WM on any device? because my Toshiba g500 has a software which crashes after showing the welcome screen (TOSHIBA). DO i have to return it or is there any way to solve it myself?

[ultramag69]

bashma, is it a Hermes you're trying to put WM06 on?
You need to put the WM MADE FOR YOUR DEVICE on. If you try to put a version on that isn't made for your device you will end up with a brick. Its like trying to build a dvd player with chinese instructions, you know whats supposed to happen, it just won't start.....

[bashma]

bashma, is it a Hermes you're trying to put WM06 on?

no it is a Toshiba g500.. and It has a wrecked OS. after switching it on it shows the welcome screen and stopps.. the only way to switch it off is to remove the battery! :-/ any idea?

You need to find what version of wM is needed. You won't find it here...
