Good Link & WM5

[FatherFluffyBottom]

Hi all,
I'm loving the WM5.0 ROMs, however I cannot seem to get GoodLink to install (it claims my version of WM is unsupported). I've noticed for some other platforms, people have managed to change their WM version number to effectively combat this (fooling GoodLink to install).

Any idea how I can change the WM version number to fool GoodLink to install?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

if you provide me with the install cab i may help, but first i have to look at it

Sure, I've uploaded the install cab here (https://secure.evilpiggy.com/upload/view/file,GetGoodLinkSP2005.cab/folder,/user,matt/GetGoodLinkSP2005.cab).

Thanks a lot.

First i think this is smartphone release, not pocketpc one, second your link does not work :)

Apologies.

Here is the correct file (http://upload.drunkit.com/view/file,GetGoodLinkPPC2005.cab/folder,/user,matt/GetGoodLinkPPC2005.cab). I selected the wrong one :)

I dont know what this software is, and how to configure it but here is working WM5 cab of it, it installs and the some kind of setup wizard comes up, and then it asks for email and for pin

Thanks for your help. However, the issue with GoodLink is that it does a check after you enter your PIN on the WM version. At this point, it sees my BA is 5.1 (not 5.0) and fails the install.

I've seen other ROMs change the version number to avoid this problem and didn't know if it's something that's easy to do (either via a hex editor or a registry fix).

Cheers,
Matt

it is compatible with older wm5 roms without the 5.1 core, i am not sure where is the correct address to change for blueangel

and i think that it is time for them to update their app, there are no WM 5.0 devices anymore on the market

[FatherFluffyBottom]

Thanks xplode, I'll try finding, downloading & installing a 5.0 ROM tonight then and see if it all works.

Agreed that they should update their software!

Just a followup to the above, I cannot seem to find any older images for download, the earliest I can find is "xplode_AKU3.3_Beta1_R1.rar" which still has a 5.1 core.

Any ideas where I can get an older WM5.0 image from? I'd go back to 2003, but that's not supported either (between a rock and a hard place with GoodLink!)
