Noob here! - Bit of advice

Guys,
I have a standard O2 Orbit here and I am looking at installing this TouchFLO ROM I've seen on this forum. However I'm a bit worried about bricking my phone.
Can somebody just give me a few steps to follow. I've searched but I have to say I got a bit confused when reading about CID locks etc...
Any help greatly appreciated.

You have to run USPL first (USPL by "Pof")
You will find it at STICKY Section.
Mostly all the ROM here lately allready built in USPL. so it will automatically takes you to the next DSUU windows.
but if you really wants Step by Step:
-----------------------------------
1. Make sure your Activesync is version 4.5 (or Above).
2. Refresh your PC by "RESTART" and enter WindowsXP again (just to make sure your PC running fresh).
3. Refresh your PDA by "Soft reset" your PDA, wait until finish (just to make sure your PC running fresh).
4. Make sure you have 80% or more Battery.
5. Connect your device to PC via activesync using USB only.
6. wait until "connected" or "Syncronized".
7. Enter folder USPL.
8. Double click "start_uspl.exe" (small yellow ball icon).
9. Black screen will appears... start uploading 10%..20%.... until 100%
10. Update windows will appear... Follow instruction by clicking "NEXT" or tick "YES I AGREE..bla bla" check box.
11. The progress bar will appear... wait until Finish.
12. Do not unplug the USB cable or your PDA become brick.
13. When finish your PDA Restart itself... and normally enter the today screen.
14. If not working try it again from Step: 5 (sometimes need to try more than one)
13. If your PDA restart itself and Show the SPL number is changes then CONGRATULATIONS you have finish install the USPL.
Next step is to Upgrade your ROM using DSUU (its on the ROM folder)
14. install DSUU is simple just double click "ROMUpdateUtility.exe"
15. Update windows will appear & follow instructions.
I Hope it helps..
best regards,
Wens

I'm assuming it won't differ if I'm using Vista as my client and not Win XP?

Also, is it possible to do this Via Bluetooth as my bloody USB cable isn't working correctly!

Vista not using Activesync, but WDMC
you can download at microsoft Website.
Upgrade ROM only can be done using USB cable. other won't work.
Good Luck!

- Install Windows Mobile Device Center 6 for Windows Vista
- On your artemis launch Bootloader and connect with your PC using usb cable. (For bootloader press Voice Dial + On/off button at the same time till you see a multi colored screen)
- Do exactly what the tutorial describe here: http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=23&Itemid=27
- Your driver is changed so you can cid unlock your artemis now, do this by using USPL. (download below + manual). Remember to use the same usb port where you changed the driver from, otherwise the connection get lost and you have a update error.
- You can now search for a cooked rom of your choice and simply flash it by running the RUU.exe.

I did Slider's
...I followed the instructions but after step 9
(9. Black screen will appears... start uploading 10%..20%.... until 100%) nothing happened on my phone.
Any ideas. No "Next" or anything...the update rom utility just fired off (running the USPL from the Touch Rom directory

the prob seems to be vista......
or it could be the o2 offical WM6 rom
mine will upload the offical O2 rom but everything else fails.
people tell me im doing it wrong but have followed the driver swap step by step on 2 diff vista machines with no joy.

just borrow somebodyelse Windows XP Machines.. that'll do.

[Q] Task 29 on USA HD2???

how exactly do u do it on the usa version can someone do a step by step that has done it before please?

Well I do it quite often with the one that doesn't kill the radio.
#1 - unzip the task29 file onto your PC.
#2 - Sync your phone with your computer (make sure its connected before #3)
#3 - Backup anything you want to keep, remove your storage card / SIM.
#4 - Run the task29 as Admin, and follow the instructions.
#5 - After you click update, it should boot your phone to bootloader and run a very quick update at the black HTC screen. Once it hits 100% hold the volume down button to enter bootloader again.
#6 - Flash your new ROM.
Hope this helps.

I'm using JI1 Cooked ROM ....{ Cooked By MS Team }
it's cool
i'm using it for a while now..and i didn't find any bug in it yet..!!!

Looking alot here on XDA reading things about roms and such. But I wonder. If I would like to go back to the original rom (factory default), is that still possible? I only have this phone so I don't want to get stuck and having no phone at all.

This is the way of installing within Windows XP but it will not work inside Windows 7.
Any ideea when PC only runs Win7?
Thanks & Regards,

hmm I'm trying this exact procedure in XP, w7-64, w7-32, in neither Pc is the program able to detect the phone.
I must add though that i had tried to do an update using KIEs. It hang in mid-upgrade.. and i had hopes that Octans could repair this bricked phone,
anyone else having this predicament?

Ihave flashed my omnia with vista 32 bit and windows 7 64 bit ...flashing with vista 32bit is easy but you need to update the vista driver...
For windows 7 64 bit you need to stop the stupid driver signature enforcement at the start of windows by pressing F8 during the bootloader or installing DSEO( Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider) which is a free application( and you can google it) to do that before updating the driver ...there is a specific driver for 32 bit and 64 bit in windows 7....I have attached vista driver and w7 23 and 64 drivers....

maybe somebody can help me.
i made some flash to my fone, no problem under w7. onde day trying a new flash, the mobile simply don't talk with my pc.
format c:\
install w7, install drivers, nothing happen.
format
instal xp, same procedure. nothing happen.
hard reset between flash ...
now i have the phone full of samsung, windows, and my provider trash.
something like 37 mb memory
and ..i can't charge my phone when is on, only when i turn it off he charge the baterry via usb or wall charger.
i have two cable.
if somebody have some suggestion idea, resolution.
tks
