MSN Mobile retail version won't install -please help if poss - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Got an MDA pro and miss MSN badly at work, so I bought the retail MSN mobile.
When I go to install it I get the error of " No Windows Mobile or Smartphone device is connected via ActiveSync", blah blah, ensure device is connected, try again...
It is connected, synced, icon is green and I can explore device from dekstop.
Opening the install exe with WinRAR doesn't yield any .cab files I could just run on the device, and I have done the activation thing of MSN Mobile as well.
I have AS 4.0 (didn't work on 4.1 before you say - I went back to see if it would work on the 'official' AS), MDA Pro, Win XP, USB connection.
Help! Need my fix of MSN and my hotmail account back.

Imate update rom
Why don't you install the imate rom it contains the free version of MSN

Joe:
I installed the jasjar rom on my MDApro and skipped the extended rom install by softresetting my ppc right after a hard reset so it will not install the extended rom files. after that I installed the Signed_UNI_TMONL_Conn_112101 cab from my old extended rom from the MDA the have the gprs settings.
Now I have a fast working MDA pro with MSN and if you want You can install SKype from the extend rom the you uploaded yourself
Good luck

Resolved
It was something to do with my old PC I use for programs; it's XP SP1 and my games PC let it install fine which is an updated SP2+ XP machine.
Thanks for the suggestions; when I have the confidence, I will do the full upgrade to WWE.[/b]

How to upgrade rom in Vista?

I recently install Vista RTM6000 on my laptop. But I found that I can not upgrade my universal rom ever.
Is there somebody successfully upgrade rom in Vista? And how can I do it?
At this point upgrading roms under vista is impossible, because RUU software is incompatible with Vista
The current way I do it is to install Virtual PC 2007 and run XP to do any flashing...it's a cludge but it works.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtualpc/default.mspx
oh,thanks very much,I can't refresh the rom for long time,but couldn't find out the reason.HoHo, that's just because I'm using Vista 6000.
Thanks, but a little sad. Vista does not runs so fast on my laptop. I have already two operation system installed. I really won't to install an another one...

WM6 and Vista Sync

Hi all.
Finally update my M3100 to WM6 (thanks to LVSM) and i can't connect with my Windows Vista desktop using latest driver from Microsoft.
I can connect with Windows XP box with Active Sync 4.5 without any problem.
Anyone get this working or am i crazy?
Thanks all.
Windows VISTA has a new activesync.
If you connect your device, you should see that Vista auto detects your phone.
But you can't install programs etc.
Then you have to run Windows Update to dowload an additional package, so you
can install programs etc.
So if your Vista ain't that legal, then don't try.
I had installed the XDA Live 0.1 last week without issues (via WinXP)
When I tried to upgrade to the 0.2 it hung in boot loader (tri-colour screen), while using Vista w/ AS4.5.
I had to hard reset to get it to go back to 0.1, but it hasn't really been the same since.
I d/l the new WM6 LVSM and tried to upgrade, but it also hangs in tri-colour mode.
Now is it a problem because I'm running Vista?

If I am not mistaking, you can't upgrade with Vista.
There is a workaround for it, but standard it's not possible.
Upgrade trough Windows XP.

Well, i expose my complete experience with Vista (of course legal copy )
I have one Qtek 9100 and one TyTN (SPV M3100 Spanish Orange).
days ago both of them with WM5 (original branded)
Yesterday move qtek 9100 to WM6, but can't do with Vista so i do in a VMWare Windows XP box running into Vista with VMWare Workstation (this works very fine). once the 9100 was WM6, Vista says taht the device is new and can't find the driver, but one day before works fine.
So today upgrade my TyTN with the same, put the RUU in the XP box, and works fine, but the same results in Vista and Mobile Sync. Works with SM5 but not with WM6. But in XP box, works with boths.
I think MS checks the OS version in Vista Sync, so you can't sync if the OS version isn't in the list of legal OS mobile.
I am running Windows Vista Ultimate and have WMXL 0.20 on my phone.
I can connect my phone to vista and i can browse my phone. I see the storage card and the internal memory.
You can't install application trough this.
If you want to install application when using Windows Vista, connect your phone with the USB cable, wait for Windows to detect your phone and install the drivers, then run Windows Update.
Then it will download an package so you can install applications.
Windows Vista uses the new Mobile Sync Center hence the RUU cannot connect with your PDA... if you replace the Mobile Sync Center drivers with the activesync ones you can get it to work...
there is a search button on the top right of this forum... as this topic has been discussed and answered many times before i suggest you use the search feature as it works wonders....
I installed Windoes Mobile Device Center on Vista, and I did not have a problem getting it to recognize my hermes w/ XDA-live 0.20. I did nothing special, just plugged it in, it was recognized, I configured it, and it syncs no problem.

Ok, i dosn't express correct. The question is the conectivity, not so only run RUU, but get acces to device.
With Vista (spanish version) i can't get acces to WM6, and i try two devices, Qtek 9100 and TyTN. a couples of days before both of them were with WM5 and can access without any problem. So i think Vista can read the version my devices says to be and be confused with the driver to use. Were can i find the drivers to make this work. Anyone says i can put activesync 4.5 drivers in Vista, is this correct?
So i must to connect to my XP box into VMWare and access trought this. so i can access and update usgin RUU.
Thanks.

I'm in your same situation.
Im my case, Vista dosn't find the correct driver for my M3100 with LVSW WM6 (perhaps i make a mistake installing, i'll reinstall Vista soon ) In XP box no problem to do that, and gain Internet connection from M3100 to get sync with Exchange server trought Internet.
How do you set the connection in Device Center?
Everything is working fine under vista for me.
I am able to:
-use ICS through USB, PAN
-manage installed programmes
-browse the device
...
I am using an english vista + an english WM6 tytn ROM
Anyone else notice that with XP and Activesync you can see and browse to your Windows folder on the PPC, but through Vista that folder is completely hidden and there seems to be no way to browse it??

I'm using Vista since the first day and I have updated my TyNT with LVSW ROM and everything works.

All put in one word, everything is perfect.
Only one thing hasn't worked : I haven't been able to update using Vista.

whats the procedure ? as i think there is a exe file in the zip folder which i am currently downloading, if so then how do i extract only nbh. and what about the radio extraction. and flashing.
Pls senior members should post a easy guide, or many will brick their phone.
Reading wiki and researching the forum has confused me as there are lot of tech terms used which is unfamiliar. and different ways i guess. HELP HELP HELP.
For those, who have native ROMs:
01.
Upgrading the ROM Code erases all of personal data and custom-installed applications from the device. Make sure all of your personal information and data are backed up to your PC via ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center. After updating the ROM, copy the data back to your mobile device and reinstall your applications.
02.
Third-party applications may have compatibility issues with Windows Mobile™ 6. Please consult with the software developer(s) before upgrading to Windows Mobile™ 6.
03.
Make sure the remaining battery power is above 50% before performing a ROM upgrade.
04.
Before upgrading the ROM, remove the miniSD (U1000, D810 and 838Pro) or microSD (P800W) memory card from your device.
05.
Do not disconnect the USB cable or start other applications on your PC while the ROM upgrade program is running. Doing so may cause the upgrade program to fail. In the worst situation, your mobile device may fail to boot.
06.
The entire ROM upgrade installation process takes about 15-20 minutes. Please wait patiently.
07.
When the upgrade has completed, the mobile device will reboot and start installation of certain components automatically. This takes about 3-5 minutes.
08.
If you are not familiar with these operations or if you don’t know how to work with your PC, please visit your distributor or contact us for assistance.
09.
Note that once the operating system is upgraded to Windows Mobile™ 6, it cannot be downgraded to Windows Mobile 5. Consider your options carefully before you upgrade.
10.
Users who have a membership with HTC should upgrade via the HTC official website. Upgrades done otherwise, i.e. through non-HTC-authorized channels, are considered illegal. HTC shall not be liable for any damage to the data or the user’s breach of the related laws and regulations.

Press RESET to soft-reset your device. One of the following may occur:
01.
The 3-color installation screen appears: Run the installation program again. Installation will then proceed.
02.
The HTC screen appears and the installation program can be accessed: Run the installation program again. Installation will then proceed.
03.
The HTC screen appears but the installation program cannot be accessed: Hold down the POWER and CAMERA buttons, then press RESET. The 3-color installation screen appears, and you may continue with the installation.
04.

Only need to downgrade the SPL if you plan on flashing the ROM from HTC as is. http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=59&Itemid=27
Or, you can wait until someone extracts the .NBH file which will allow you to flash with the RUU and keep HardSPL7(2.10)..
By waiting, this allows more flexability in managing the Radio and ROM releases your self.
you can try to use dutty's nbh tools to extract the nbh file then upgrade. i tried it works fine by not downgrading the SPL

Apologies but I'm new to this - my HTC TyTn (unlocked) starts to show the progress bars for the firmware update but then stops and tells me I've got an "Invalid Vendor ID".
I was under the impression that this Dopod 838 WM6 official firmware would work on my TyTn? What am I missing please?
Thanks all,

Upgrade to HardSPL.
then
READ THIS THREAD.
My Method
The steps that I took were:
1. First run the official EXE and monitor your c:\documents and settings\username\local settings\temp folder.
2. Eventually the signed *.nbh file will appear in a sub folder (90+ odd MB).
3. Copy out the *.nbh file to another location.
4. Continue through the EXE eventually it will bomb out and your device will restart.
5. Once booted copy SSPL-HERM (downloadable from wiki) to your device then execute it from the device.
6. Device will reset into bootloader mode.
7. Copy RUUWrapper (downloadable from wiki) into same location as *.NBH file on your PC.
8. Execute RUUWrapper select SSPL as the method and follow on screen prompts.
9. The process does take a while so be patient.
Hope this helps and Good luck.

Hi mrvanx,
First thanks very much for your effort since I have read your guide which is very useful for me.
I am using X01HT with WM6 (Black Pro 3.01 and Radio 1.41 and flashed HardSPL 2.10 Olipro), so if I wanna upgrade to Offical ROM from Dopod / HTC, do I need to use Dutty's tool to extract the nbh file to 7 files? and then repack them (include window, primary splash , secondary splash and ExtROM) ?
Do I also need to include the new "Radio" in the new repackage? (does it rewrite my current radio bootloader)?
Thanks so much!
You could keep the radio if you want to.
But it is still okay to flash back to previous as RADIO version for 1.47 is BL0108.

you dont need to repackage it...ive already done it.
See the relevant thread.
Sorry for the questions, there so much to read on here I'm now going round in circles I think!
1) I've NEVER flashed my HTC TyTn before but I presume I still need to install HardSPL as you advise, this is to save bricking I believe.
2) My unlocked TyTn is on the O2 network, I've heard mention of o2.cab files - do I need to do something extra here, apart from HardSpl and flashing the WM6 rom?
Thanks again, just had this awful feeling that it will flash okay and then I'd find that I couldn't get on my O2 network no more....

Why did I just feel in my bones that when any "official" ROM was released there would be a plethora of "how do I" questions?
Just why did I feel that coming.
I guess though, I'm glad that I've spent months reading, and flashing is a 10 minute no sweat deal anymore, thanks to the efforts of mrvanx, pof, des, and many others.
Config after flashing is another deal altogether.

Help with Windows Live for WM5

Hi all,
I have a motoQ w/ WM5 and I use hotmail. Pocket msn really sucks.
I installed windows live through an .exe file and it worked perfect for one week.
Suddently, the program started to fail to syncronize with my hotmail account.
I decided to do a master reset in my phone and install the program again to try to solve the problem.
The problem is that now, when I try to install the Windows Live, I get a message that the installation of the *.cab was unsuccesful.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you.

Errors Numbers : 266 & 264 & 302 while Upgrading PPC

I decided to tell something about my experience today about these Error numbers while Upgrading my Hermes (T-Mobile MDA VARIO II) .
Dear friends….i read Upgrading instuguidances again and again but there is a gold issue I did not notice untill today.
whenever I put my PPC into Boot Loader Mode and connect it to PC to upgrading these Errors appear immediately and I was in trouble what those errors are.
It checked the cable or some different Official ROMs but in fact I noticed all growth from Windows.
Yeah…
I am in winder why Microsoft does not make it possible upgrading PPC over Windows XPSP3 !!!
Whenever I run RUUWarpper on Windows XP Service Pack 3 these errors shown while I was sure about correct cable and correct ROM and ….
Sooo I want to share it to all peoples this gold notice :
Upgrading PPC is just possible on Windows XP Service Pack 2.
not Windows XPSP3 nor Windows Vista.
I think it is good for someone else that search and find these Topic in database of this nice/great Forum if same problem has appeared to him.
Here is some pictures of those errors & some proof if is required.
Mate, there has been a heap of threads on how to upgrade with Vista. It Works.
I have, on occasion, upgraded my Hermes on Win XP SP3 successfully. If it doesn't work for you, try the sd card method, you have to install Hard SPL V7 first, I tend to use this method more as it seems safer to me... Especially for the radio rom.
All you need to do is search and you should find the answers you seek...
Cheers...
So really can you Upgrade your Hermes on Win XP SP3 successfully?
you mentioned some keywords but could you please show me those links exactly how to upgrade our Hermes on XP SP3 too?
I think this forum is so noisy i can not find it myself.
I really need Upgrade HERM300 (T-Mobile MDA Vario II) on XP SP3 on my Laptop.
its boot loader shows IPL-1.04 & SPL-2.10.olipro
is it enough or not?
about 1 hours after reading your post I tried again upgrading on XP SP3 and put it on Boot Loader but nothing. (above Errors had shown again and again)
i would be appreciate if you show us that useful links (upgrading over XP SP3 normaly like XP SP2 successfuly)
Mate, as you have Hard SPL installed (SPL 2.10) try this instead...
1. Format a 2Gb or less sd card FAT32. Copy the .nbh file of the rom you want onto it and rename to "hermimg.nbh".
2. Put sd card into Hermes and reset to bootloader - power, OK and reset with stylus.
3. When prompted hit the power button to flash new rom.
Just make sure you have 50% or more battery though.
I find this method the easiest way of flashing roms as there is no real involvement of the PC except to format sd card and copy the .nbh file across. You'll get no sync errors, have no worries about resets/blackouts ar the usb cable being pulled. About the only ways to stuff this up is to reset in the middle of a flash or to have a flat battery.
Cheers...

dear friends ,Thanks for your communion.
What you experienced was what I just did went thru
Had the same thoughts with the problem, I get Error [264], I also thought the CID-unlock issue. Tried many ways to get thru but fail in the end. Well yea, your piece of notes enlighten me. I will try on XP SP 2 and below, gotta find the machine some where first
Thanks for this post.

I decided to tell something about my experience today about these Error numbers while Upgrading my Hermes (T-Mobile MDA VARIO II) .
Dear friends….i read Upgrading instuguidances again and again but there is a gold issue I did not notice untill today.
whenever I put my PPC into Boot Loader Mode and connect it to PC to upgrading these Errors appear immediately and I was in trouble what those errors are.
It checked the cable or some different Official ROMs but in fact I noticed all growth from Windows.
Yeah…
I am in winder why Microsoft does not make it possible upgrading PPC over Windows XPSP3 !!!
Whenever I run RUUWarpper on Windows XP Service Pack 3 these errors shown while I was sure about correct cable and correct ROM and ….
Sooo I want to share it to all peoples this gold notice :
Upgrading PPC is just possible on Windows XP Service Pack 2.
not Windows XPSP3 nor Windows Vista.
I think it is good for someone else that search and find these Topic in database of this nice/great Forum if same problem has appeared to him.
Here is some pictures of those errors & some proof if is required.

dear ferioz...
after those days passed what about your siuation?
has your problem solved using Windows XP Service Pack 2 ?
did you find any System running XP SP2 and try upgrading your PPC ?
If you have trouble with the pc, try the SD card method. Easier and I believe safer too as no-one accidently resets the pc in the middle of a flash. This method is a MUST when upgrading Radio ROMs...
For the PC though, you might need to update your .net framework to 3.5.
Cheers...
dear ultramag69...
You recommened this safely nice upgrading method and wrote a how to on this post and I love it and thank for suggest it.
I did not have enough time to upgrade and change my Hermes ROM recently from December 2008 so I did not try this method still cause PPC will go to Factory Default settings and programms installed will be ununstalled and I hate installing again and again.
anyway...
so Thanks for your nice answer and remind.
I suggest others try this method too instead of using PC running XPSP 2 specially this days mostly use Vista running Windows Mobile Device Center instead of XP running ActivSync.
