Please help! - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hello. Sorry if this is in the wrong area, but I am new to flashing roms, and I don't know who to ask for help. I have an audiovox ppc4100 and all I want to do is upgrade it to windows mobile 5 or 6. Just something other than wm2003. I've downloaded numerous wm6 and wm5 images from this site (They are extremely cool looking from the screenshots I've seen!) but I cannot seem to get any of them to work. I am running windows vista, so activesync isn't available. Its the windows mobile device center. It would just be easiest if I could rom upgrade from my 2gb sd card. Is there anyone who can help me either cook a wm5 or wm6 rom for my ppc4100 or give me some pointers on how to do this (remember, I'm a newbie!) I would really appreciate anyone's help. Thanks so much!

Want to upgrade to WM2003 - Help!

I'm new to this site and a bit overwhelmed. I have a T-Mobile Pocket PC Phone running Pocket PC 2002. I would like to upgrade to the newest Windows Mobile (2003?). I have been waiting forever for an upgrade from T-Mobile and then saw the link to this forum. Would anyone mind giving me directions on where/how to start?
Thanks!

Upgrading to 2003 Windows Build from 2002 with xda rom

Greetings, I have been searching and can not find the answer well at least in non tech speek. Wiki FAQ will not open for me for some reason.
I have just bought a SX56 for my daughter it was locked on AT&T, we are not on AT&T so I bouhgt a un-lock on eBay. THe unlock went really easy but to get it to work I had to load a ROM that pointed here. Once I unlocked it I noticed it had Windows 2002 in it. I wanted to upgrade it to 2003. I have a disc that I also got from eBay for my 2 T-Moble phones I upgraded. On the CD it has an upgrade for the AT&T SX56. When I tried to do the upgrade it said it did not reconize a ROM image. So here I am.
1) How do I upload Windows Mobile 2003?
2) I see on this forum there is Win 2005 should I do this rather then 2003?
3) IF 2005 how?
My two trusty T-Mobile phone (wife and I have them)
1) I noticed the "new" phone has better reception then either of my other phones is it a better radio software build? If so how do I get it on my other phones?
2) Can I upgrade the T-Mobile Phones to Windows 2005 and if so why is it better?
3) If so how?
THANKS!
First of all, your are a little bit a silly boy buying an unlock out of ebay, because it's all for free here from this forum. But this is something completely different.... ;-)
First of all, there is no WM2005 for the Wallaby-Device you have. So you can not upgrade to it.
When you atke a look at the phone, that has a better receipient, which Radio version is installed? You can get most radio versions on our ftp-server
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wallaby/
But updating Radio could end your device in a paperweight.......
Also on the ftp, there are some "clean" ROM Images you can use for upgrading to WM2003. Or you can cook your own ROM at http://www.romkitchen.de
You can use the exe file and therefore you must only have a activesync connection between the PC and your device.
I would suggest you take the 4.01.12 ROm-Image....
Stefan
Oaky so I paid $3.00 to find you. Now I will donate 2x that because your help okay? <G>
So I now understand the ROM has 2003 in it THANKS!
Merry Christmas!
Built a rom made a donation and can't get the rom to load.
I tride to put the ROM in My Documents on the phone via Active Sync latest build. I get an error message that there not enough memory.
There is nothing on that phone yet.
Am I just stupid or what? LOL
You do neither have to pay for "my service" here, nor for my kitchen.....
When you have downloaded the ROM in exe-format, just run the exe file on your PC where your Wallaby has connected via activesync.
You do not hat to transfer the ROM to the device via activesysnc.....
Stefan
Thanks I made a small donation because of the effort you put in here not any other reason.
I will run the Rom NOW. fingers crossed.
Same error message, "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged
Cannot open C:\Documents and Settings\namedeleted \Desktop\rom.exe"
Please check the file size. Must about 16 MB.....
In the moment i have a little bit problems with my romkitchen. Transfer will disrupted after 90 seconds..... :-(
If you have a slow Internet connection (< 1.5 Mbit) this could cause the problem.
Stefan
I will kook another
No soup From the Kitchen
Just cooked a fresh one und, "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged
Cannot open C:\Documents and Settings\XXX\Desktop\rom.exe"
I am now trying the SLOW version. Some times I hear slow cooking is better.
Wow that is going to take a LONG time to download. LOL!
Download perfect and it is installing this time woooooo whooooooo
By the way Stefan are you a,
Multiplex
Graupner
Robbe
Or
Jamara
kind of pilot?
Glad to here it's working.... ;-)
By the way. I'm a one and only Multiplex (Profi mc 4000) pilot.....
No better choice availabalbe on the market 8)
Stefan
Incidentally, I thought I'd chime in as I have a Qtek 1020 Wallaby device with a ROM version of 4.02.04 dated 24/8/05 - I'm guessing that must be the newest one, would I be correct?
Regards,
Neil.
I knew I liked you!
I was the Multiplex importer to the USA for 9 years before Hitec bought out Herr Kussbmaul. Profi 4000 all the way, still the best.
Yes I am the crazy guy who had www.multiplexrc.com
I will be in Nurenburg for Toy Fair in Feb.
THANKS for all your help!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Where to get windows live for WM6 ?

I am using the T-Mobile official WM6 ROM which unfortunately doesnt contain Windows Live. I have previously used Schap's ROMs but this one seems more stable.
Can someone please tell me where and how I can download the Windows Live package?
Thanks.
I had both - UK and DE - T-Mobile WM6 ROMs installed. Both contained the WINDOWS LIVE. If it is not on your TODAY screen you still should be able to find it under PROGRAMS
Ok.. everyone on these boards say use the search..
I used the search to find your answer.. Maybe YOU and everyone else should take their advice.
