Updating Xda Orbit To Wm6.1

[dadon_786]

Hi guys,

I'm a newbie to the forum and for starters I want to apologise if I'm in the wrong section!

My question:- I want to upgrade WM6 to WM6.1 with the cube effect, what I want to know is where to find the right ROM? My ROM version is 3.4.

If I'm missing anything, can someone please let me know so I can update you guys!

Thanks in advance!:D

i had to unlock my CID first using the USPL program and once i'd done that i could flash the custom rom,.

i've unlocked the CID and downloaded the new ROM, but when i run the exe file that us ARTEMIS CUSTOMRUU error comes "the application failed to initialize properly (0x0000135)" now what to do?? how to run the exe file???

[KevandLynds]

Are you using windowsXP??

i couldn't flash it with vista but when i used my laptop that had windows XP on and ran active sync to sync the device it worked no problem..

you have to have it sync'd with active sync.



hope this helps!

sometimes i find that if i put the device in to boot loader it works

so try update, it fails, stick device in to bootloader mode an try again.

the error came on my pc becuse it did'nt had .Net framework installed..
after installin it everything went smoothly...
I have flashed my orbit with Oops Black ROM, although its very fast,but it has several bugs!! are there any better ROM's floating in this forum?? and if i want to restore my original Orbit WM6.0 OS what shud i do???

[KevandLynds]

what type of bugs have you noticed?

mines running perfect! :D

yeah there's loads of roms available in the Windows Mobile 6 section of the Artemis forum.

you should have no problem upgrading to any rom available now.

@KevandLynds
Here are some bugs which i found
-> When using mouse mode, the pointer gets disappeared after sometime.
-> When Sliding your finger upwards (like when u wanna start that touchflo3D cube) an error comes and you have to restart the phone
-> Unable to view videos in Picture and Video tool.. although u can view pictures.
-> Cannot add menu items.

some of those are touch flo problems, 6.1 by its self it very good in my opinion, dont have any issues except that if i do a soft rest whilst plugged in to and synced with a PC it wont sync afterwards, need to rest unplugged, bizzar but doesnt happen to often
