Wm6 update.. few questions..

[J_Kirk]

Hi,

I've read and reread the thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350033 i.e. New WM6 Upgrade Guide.
Just a few questions:

1. After step 2 i.e. HardSPL is complete, what should be the status of the prophet? I mean.. at the end, would it soft reset? hard reset? the screen will remain blank? tri color? How would I know the step is completed successfully?

2. Step 5: Flash the nk.nbf. Ok.. now how should the prophet be connected? Will the prophet be in a wm5/6 setup stage, and a guest connection would have to be made thru activesynch, just like the previous process? What state would the prophet be in from previous step, and how and when to run the ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G3.exe? It is understood that my nk.nbf is in the same directory.

TIA.

1. look the same (nothing change), only the digits was being changed while rebooting...

2. USB cable to connect, you can let it be in guess connection with the activesync or if problems occur, have a look to post 1 in my thread ( in my signature) for your reference.. :)

Good luck....

again..... master rondol1 provides detailed answers, look below, enjoy~~~~~ :)

1. Your Prophet will restart to the same OS as you had before. There is no change other then the SPL replaced. You can check this on the second startup-screen, the one with the red informationtext. If things went fine, you should read: SPL 2.G3.4PDA or SPL 2.G4.4PDA. If not, don't continue flashing but try to install HardSPL again.

2. As the OS is still the same you used before, just connect your PPC using an USB cable. No need to connect in guest mode or anything different. When made sure that HardSPL is installed correct, the Prophet doesn't have to be in a special state. You have downloaded the RUU according to your devicetype G3 or G4. Download the nk.nbf ROM file of your choice and place it in the same folder with the RUU. Now just run the RUU and be patient. It seems to stop several time, but just don't react as long as you don't get an error. At the and the RUU will report it is finished and your Prophet will restart.

Ok a brief followup.. after downloading the update package from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350033&highlight=hard+spl and applying the G3 version of HardSPL, I see absolutely NO change on my prophet. The boot up shows SPL 2.20.0000 and not SPL 2.G3.4PDA as mentioned. I've tried it twice with same result.

Any suggestions?

did you try THIS TOOL on my Thread? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=68782&d=1202092776)

After Hardspl,

Try this "one step Jumpspl+Korand3.1(WM6.1)" tool (http://v-dog.net/XDA/Youzii-Kor31-WM61-Tool.rar) (uploading), quite convenient.. to try this rom. ( clean, fast and stable) :D
