After searching for hours on all the files, procedures, etc. on the subject, here's a quick guide for the n00b's out there that want to do this... Some information i will be repeating from other places on the internet.

----------------------------------
The following Files are needed (search the forums and google to locate)

1. CheetahUnlocker.rar (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334100)
2. Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD.rar
3. Treo750Radio1.54.07.00.rar
4. RUUWrapper.zip


OK.. Now here we go

unrar the first file 'cheetahunlocker' and basically follow the instructions from the above #1 link. Two things to note: Ignore any images for Hermes and you must have .net 2.0 framework installed on the device.

when you run the unlocker, the first one worked fine for me, the second process didn't work, but that doesn't matter. also watch the screen for the unit to ask you about opening files. if you don't do it, it can time out and then you'll have to start over.

Now here is the fun part.

1. Unzip the RUUwrapper file to it's own folder.

2. unrar the CHEEIMG.nbh file from Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD.rar into the same directory of the RUUwrapper files

3. rename the CHEEIMG.nbh file to CHEEIMG_FW.nbh

4. run the RUUWrapper.exe file and it will flash the rom of the unit to WM61. **remember to watch the screen for prompting of opening files at the beginning.

5. Done with WM61. Now for the radio update. It's basically the same process as above.

6. unrar the CHEEIMG.nbh file from Treo750Radio1.54.07.00.rar and put it into the RUUwrapper directory like before.

7. rename the CHEEIMG.nbh file to CHEEIMG_FW.nbh (delete the old one first)

8. Run the RUUwapper.exe file again to flash (this time) the radio to the unit. **remember to watch the screen for prompting of opening files at the beginning.


9. All Done.

It worked fine for me with the Treo 750 and the AT&T network..

Your method above just helped me escape a bootloader loop which was (apparently created) by trying to load a different custom rom after having installed hardSPL. The only precautionary measure I took was to place only one image (the same OS & Radio you used) into the RUUWrapper folder at a time and it loaded right up. Still checking and testing some things out because the bootup isn't exactly smooth as silk, and the old "TREO750-1.13-CNG" still shows up under About->Phone->Software Version, but all firmware references reflect the updates. MTTY was ineffective in my particular situation.

Now for testing the radio for reliability and battery drain,etc...

Thanks for the heads-up!

Anybody? at least tell me where I can find information about RUUWrapper.

Well I clicked Force use safe SSPL and clicked through and I got a error message saying that it could not communicate with the 750 Error 246 check usb connection?

I read that Vista had some issues with usb connections and to download and use VistaRUU usb drivers, I installed it according to the description, still error 246 and sometimes error 202?

Any ideas?

honestly i don't remember seeing that screen you are getting. it looks like the software isn't detecting the rom you have on your phone, in which case i would use the autodetect.

Hello Eric,

If I use autodetect it says it can not detect what version I'm using "Recomend using Safe SSPL"

This was the ONLY process that worked for me. However, I did not use the Cheetah unlocker, it is unfriendly with my Vista USB connection. I used magic unlocker and then your instructions and now I running on WM 6.1..

Thanks.. great work!!

Just curious - I lost Voice Command when I did this upgrade. Sure, the OS runs nice, seems a little faster, but I sure do miss Voice command. I am running AT&T's Treo 750, which had Voice Command on it. Some people, on some websites, like TreoCentral said there was a 'lite' version, which did not have Voice Command, but I installed this version: Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD.rar, and that seems like the right one.

So, I wonder - do you have Voice Command anymore?

As I know it is the normal version's bug (missing the voice command).

This is great and it worked for me so I'm including the files here.

WM 6.1 does have some things that need to be debuged.

I havent tried WM 6.0 but from what I read on here it seems that 6.0 is more stable.

Does any one know if this route will work for WM 6.0?

If so does any one know which file do you download?

Will this set up work with WM 6.0?

Well, WM6.0 is more stable, for one thing I had a faster battery drain with WM6.1 than I did with 6.0.

As mentioned earlier, some missing stuff like voice command, but one thing I thought wouldn't be there was messaging. For some reason that Messaging is half annoying me.

While I'm at it, anyone know how to backup SMS messages? That Messaging app is just keeping them to itself.
