WM6 Update...
Nov 2 2007, 5:03 AM EDT | Post edited: Nov 2 2007, 5:03 AM EDT
I have the HTC TyTN, and not 8525. Does that mean that the ROM upgrade will not work for me? I've tried to run the installer and when it gets to a certain point it closes my Active Sync, so my connection is always lost. Any ideas? 2  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

I was getting the same thing to. The trick is to connect the device before running the RUU. It will make the screen turn into a pretty tri-color (blue, red, green I think). That should happen during the "Veryifying PC status" or whatever message. Follow the rest of the steps and you should be good to go. Ignore the one step where it says ActiveSync needs to going.

Make sure you back up any and all personal data.

Are you using the correct ROM update? Just making sure you have pulled the TyTN ROM and not the one for the 8525.

I have the same model and had no problem installing WM6 update. Close all windows; have your device plugged before you open the download; Make sure that you are downloading the correct ROM. (Stay away form that of AT&T 8525); Also, back up anything you want to keep from the TyTN. 4  out of 4 found this valuable. Do you?

I had this same problem when I tried the update through Vista and new mobile center. I tried several different ways, but couldn't get the update to start (failed everytime, when ROM update was about to start). I changed to do the update with XP and traditional Active sync. That worked and now I have WM6 installed! Do you find this valuable?

You must make sure your Hermes version is: "Herm100" for the new 3.62 ROM to load properly. Be sure to soft reset BEFORE at&t customizations start loading. They just add bloatware and rob you of memory. You'll have to set up data connection manually afterward. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?
