Best regards,
There is a slight mistake in the guide to flash the rom.

1.Connect your device to activesync(suggest a hard reset first,however it's optional)

2.Extract SPL vG.39.7z anywhere you want.

3.Run ''Command prompt'' (if using vista/7 RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR)

4.Enter this command pdocwrite spl -n0 -b 0x20000 0 0x80000 (WAIT UNTIL IT FINISHES).This command replaces a file in the ROM which allows you to flash ''non-original roms'' basically software CID unlocking which allows flashing of ''cooked roms''

5.You will get warnings on your hp regarding a dll file(itsutils.dll) PRESS YES

6.Put your device in bootloader mode.[hold the two buttons next to the joystick(the round thingy) and shortly tap the reset button with your stylus

7.Open activesync,go to connections and untick allow USB connections

8.Extract 6915_ENG.7z and run Sable_RUU

9.Press on the big ''Upgrade button''

10.There will be a progress bar, when it's done it should say something like '' Update finished !!''

11.Go back to activesync and re-tick allow USB connections


I wrote this for everybody who's got trouble flashing roms on their hw69xx.Yep I had this problem too.

Sorry for taking over the thread....
Hope it helps

Best regards,
it seems __ady__ did a better job explaining things, but to follow up I don't know if you can change the bootloader (spl isn't same thing).

Nothing yet on the GPS... I am still reading up on how to properly cook a ROM. but if someone else around here is more advanced than I am I can at least pass on possible driver files from WM5 ROM dumps I made using pdocread before I upgraded.

Um you can change the bootloader with sable_RUU by flashing CEBL.nbf....if that's what you mean.The one included in the archive is vG.39.I suppose that people who have blootloader vG.38 can upgrade using CEBL.nbf.

Just my two cents...
