After finally deciding to upgrade to WM6, I had trouble getting it working. The crossbow installer finishes, but everything is still WM5.

After some searching I found these directions:


- Downgrade to Button's 1.05 ROM

- Reset and watch the IPL/SPL in the bootscreen to make sure both are version 1.xx (CID Unlock is only possible when your IPL/SPL are of version 1.XX)

- Unlock your phone ( CID UNLOCK ) with lokiwiz app or aWizard

- Install Tmo's latest 2.26 ROM so you have a good 2.26 IPL/SPL to work with, since the WM6 rom hasn't IPL/SPL included

- Install this WM6 Crossbow ROM


BUT I CANNOT FIND THE 1.05 ROM!!! Or even the Tmob 2.26 ROM which is even taken down off of their website. Are there any mirrors on freehosts anywhere? I'm sure I'm not the only one having this problem.

Yea I found the Tmob ROM and am trying risdoro's method of editing the ROM. It is a G3. Still not having much luck. I found an old link of the 1.05 ROM here:
