Hi

My Orange SPV M700 was successfully unlocked and radio upgraded and hard spl installed as per trinityguides.info with original Orange WM5. However I am now trying to upgrade the ROM to lastest dopod WM6, but cannot get past the bootloader using both usb cable or SD card methods. With usb the bootloader recognises the USB but activesync says there is no phone connected. If I softreset out of bootloader into the orange WM5 OS activesync connects OK.

I then tried the SD card method of renaming the .nbh file but it won't boot and just comes up with the bootloader screen. I've hard/soft reset the phone with no difference. It looks like I'm stuck with the factory WM5 orange ROM until I can resolve this issue as I've tried 2 PCs with XP and Vista and have now run out of ideas.

Although the phone works fine it appears there is some fault either with the hardspl bootloader or some or something introduced when it was unlocked/ radio ugraded?

Anyone got any ideas?
Help!!!

Possibly too late and possibly already tried, but when it is connected to your PC and in bootloader, the tri-colour screen, try running the upgrade again. Ignore what Active Sync says as at this point there is no PPC fror it to connect to.

I would also try one of the other ROMs, i tried the DOPOD ones and failed to get them to load, everything else i tried from here worked just fine.
