I downloaded the new ROM from i-Mate and was hoping in the zip file was a big CAB file, but found it was an exe. I've been searching around trying to figure out how to update by K-Jam from an iBook, but can't find anything concrete.
Is there way to do it, or do I have to use a PC? I have a PC at work, but I'm in Germany right now and really don't want to brick my phone while I'm here. I have bluetooth on my iBook and could use that...maybe. Should I just wait and upgrade when I get home to my PC?
Thanks for the help.

Best answer.....wait.....
Even using the Windows emulator under the Mac OS wouldn't be a neat idea...
you need PC.. and PC only
I have a Mac and there is no way to do this upgrade from it.
You cannot use VPC as WM5 devices cannot connect to VPC, there is no cab file.
You MUST have a PC.
Sorry.
Robin
Well, I guess I'll wait then.
Thanks for the inputs!!!

Don't need a legit version of XP, but you DO need SP2.
Look an Google for things like "change Windows XP serial", that should help. But I cannot say more then this! Sorry.

are you using the beta Vista? you need to download the software call windows mobile device center.
Hi, I'm useing Vista Ultimate, no beta, and I still have MDC, but when I connect PPC Vista try to search and download some drivers without success and it doesn't allow me to sync. Previously I was using MDC with HTC P3600 with no problem...

have you try connect your p3600 and see whether it sync?
I can't test P3600 because I gave it away. Here it is what I get when I try to sync:
I don't read your language, but based on what you've said, try checking windows update, while your athena is connected. Perhaps, there are files for you to download after you connect. I have Vista Ultimate as well, and the drivers did install when I first synced, so you should be able to have them too.
Really I dont' know what could it be. However the message window say that:
it's necessary to install GENERIC RNDIS DRIVER
What the hell!!!!
Now I'm trying under XP and I have no problem...what could it be? Any suggestion?

I'm using Vista Business with Dopod U1000 and it runs flawlessly.
But I was getting Hell with Dopod 900 WM6 and Vista synchronization. So much problems, bugs, and inconsistencies.
Ohhh, thats what it says. Microsoft supply's in most cases generic remote NDIS drivers for at least USB, so vendors won't have to create their own specific drivers (or so I've read, anyway ). Do you run Vista 64? I've heard of 'RNDIS driver missing' issues with Vista 64. You may also want to check your startup disk you received with your Athena. I realize you use WMDC, but there may the RNDIS drivers bundled with Activesync, that you may be able to pull out. Just a thought, and other than that, I'm not sure what else to say, except look on the net. Good luck, I can only imagine how frustrating this must be for you.
Just to let you know i also run Vista Ultimate 64, and uses WMDC, the first time i connect my DOPOD U1000, it install the driver straight away without any problem, then i can start sync with no problem.

I'm running Vista 32. About startup disk it could only install Activesync and really I can't fiugure out how to extract drivers needed. About net solution, Vista couldn't find drivers on line...
off topic question to mystic blue..
can you post your avatar as a large image?
thanks..it looks interesting your UI..
Here are a few screenshots. Using Wisbar Advance 2, Wisbar Advanced Desktop, Weather Panel, and Pocketbreeze.
UHm very very OT...please some advice about my problem related to this post will be welcome...
It seems that it cant recognize device...
I Found solution!!!
It's a WMDC bug that start to find RNDIS drivers in wrong folder. So all I had to do was to force it finding drivers in correct folder: C:/windows
Now I can sync!!!
Here it is reference...in italian

Got mine working with 64bit windows vista. just deleted that file.
YOU ROCK!!!
YOU ARE THE MAN!!!! You don't have an Idea of how many hours I spend searching a solution for get my htc wizard recognized, your last comment on force the driver search on c:\windows solve my problem too...
But not also with my phone even with a lot of hardware that I can't make get recognized...
Vista seems to be a real pain in.... anyways I don't know how many research I have left but, I have two vista x32 home premiun edition computers one made by gateway and the other by samsung.
And I notice that the samsung one doesn't have any problem recognizing hardware, so I entered to the device manager to see the drivers and I notices must of them run under the 6.0.6000.16389 vista_rtm .....) version and I found that this Driver Kit it's availiable on windows connect for beta testers, so I decide to download them, lets see if this driver kit solve many issues with my gateway.
New Version WMDC 6.1 is available!
New version is available in Microsoft website,you can download freely and install!
It should solve most of the problems!
I'm using Dopod U1000 with Vista Ultimate and WMDC 6.1 without any problem!
My only concern is I'm unable to 'reflow' pdf documents using Vista!(It was very easy with Active Sync4.5 & XP)
Any idea to overcome this problem?
plz share!

Hi I have the same card as you. It works fine on hima.
1. You need to install drivers and app for it on hima (without card inserted)
2. Soft reset your hima.
3. Power on your hima and insert the card (after boot) it should pop up automaticli on your status bar that is searching for Wifi. If it does`t show go to the app that you installed and configure (mine work on defaults and did`t need to configure anything)
I tested the card on luby`s WM 6.5 rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741800
And uploaded original drivers, app and manual that is coming on cd with card.

Hope it works for you
