Go back and read some more. Basically im going to tell you what you already know.

Do you know if you have a G3/G4 phone? Dont know read the stickies at the top of the forums to find out. This info is important if you dont want your ppc to be a paperweight.

Are you flashing back to an official carrier rom each time it fails?

Once you install the two cab files wait about 5 minutes then restart using the power button. Plug it back into your PC. Make sure there is nothing running in the background like any spyware or antivirus. Disable these until the process is over. Take out your memory card if you have one. Go into your comm manager and turn off your radio(so no one calls during the flash and mess' it up).

Now once you do all of the above now you can start the process. Once the process has started just get away from the computer, dont use it at all not even to check your email,surf the web, play solitaire, just go take the trash out or let your dog run loose for a few minutes. Make sure you check the time you start.

Anyways when it is has started, shelltools says about 15 mins. If yours says "not responding", thats ok, just let it sit for about 30 mins(sometimes shell will freeze up like it has for me). Now after about 30 mins have passed go ahead and disconnect everything. Now give it a hard reset(Hold the comm manger and voice dial buttons while sticking the stylus into the reset hole, take it out. Dont let go of the two buttons until it tells you to press the send button. Press send and now you should able to use your newly upgraded wizard. Give it a little bit of time as it will be a little slow booting up. Some people are lucky and its goes through the first time and others arent and have to do it 3 or 4 more times to get it right.

Now this is where i get mean and tell you to go back and read its easy to get cocky and think you know it all but once it all goes bad, ouch there goes some patches of hair on your head.

Im not calling you cocky now, im just saying it seems easy but its easy to make simple mistakes also. SO all in all Good luck man.
