help installing WM6.1 (ive read everything i can find)

[FL1C]

Hi,

I have a MWG AtomLife running windows mobile v6 i have been trying to install version 6.1 using DSUU.

I get 1 of 2 problems using 2 different version of 6.1 the first problem is
Everything starts off fine, phone softresets but it boots into windows and the DSUU says it failed to connect. No damage to phone.

the seconed problem is it says the country region (or somthing along thoses lines) is wrong and its not compatible with my phone.

I would just like to point out this is MWG not a 02 i got this phone from Portix (the uk disti for MWG) 2 days ago.

Any advice is muchly appricated as i said i have read the wiki, every post i can find on it all the how-tos in the various version but to no avail.


Thanks

Hi, if you want to upgrade to WinMo 6.1then you cannot upgrade via DSUU. It is not possible till a DSUU is developed.

For upgrading you would need to use the SD card. Procedure is given in the last link you had visited.

P.S. Do not use ATOM Exec and HP update utilities on Atom Life. You might brick it.

Thanks Maniac, i will look into doing it that way over the weekend, in the event i brick it how can i return it back to the original version of wm6?

'brick it' means ur phone is dead. the term is kind of a metaphor. u can use ur phone as a brick ;)
