Default Someone Please Help Me :) (ExtROM question)

Alright.

Here is what I have done up until now.

I searched this forum trying to find out how to unlock my ExtRom.

I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=374

I downloaded the zip files followed the directions and NADA. It keeps giving me some error.

I am a pretty smart cookie. I have been a network engineer for 8 years. I will be more then willing to help someone else out who can help me.

Thanks in advance
David

Just be sure to install the CAB's on the device, and soft reset after every install. Never managed to make it NOT work on my Treo

Now what?

launch the unlock sw you find in programs

softreset

delete the files in extrom

softreset

the files in extrom are gone ? ---> hardreset

the files in extrom are still here ----> recheck the previous step(s) and try again

That was exactly the pattern I followed about a dozen times, but continued to get 2 different error messages which told me to soft reset and try again every time I tried to launch the extendedROM application in Programs. Since I wouldn't have lost much more time to reflash my 750 if the worst happened, I took the chance of deleting the extendedROM files and partition with the standard File Explorer and hard reset the unit. Now, it's plain vanilla and no hiccups.

Do it again 3 or 4 times and more (if you get same message).
Then, you will see the another message.
