Upgrade a wm6 device using ubuntu? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin

Hi, I've just put Ubuntu onto my laptop (not dual boot) and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to escape microsoft, however I was wondering if there was any way I could upgrade my spv m3100 without reinstalling vista/xp or doing a sd card upgrade as my card is full of tomtom maps. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
ps only doing this in preporation for Schapps latest release !!

probably the easiest way is to use the SD card flashing method, raises the least questions about USB and serieal compatability etc...

I agree with Vanx, the SD card method is the easiest and, IMO, safest way to do it.
However, if you want to try it under linux via USB, check out this thread from Pof:

Thanks
Thanks othman! 8)
if anyone interested, i`v done a little more research on the subject.
the call log is stored as an CE database (DB), its called CLOG.DB.
using the great DBVIEW and Data Sources which came with the SER1.1 i was able to export all the data to a file on my SD card and to the PC.
Another way is to use a tool in the ROM called System Snapshot, this will export everything (Registry, DB ,OS state etc...) to a file about 500k in volume. which can be transfered...
Again, thank you for this great work you`r doing for us with this wonderfull ROM. :wink:

[Q] htc touch cruise (polaris) to android...stuck

hi all im very new to this so im slowly learning
sorry if this is a re post
im trying to upgrade my phone (touch cruise) to android
very sick of windows 6.1
i have put the base files in my sd card (got it from sourceforge)
now where it says this...
11(HaRET). Select the default.txt for your phone and rename it to default.txt
Note if you name it to startup.txt it will make HaRET automatically load
it comes with 3 default files
default-kaiser
default-polaris
default-vogue
after i rename the polaris file to 'default'
i click run in haret and then my phone just turns off
i cant turn it back on until i take the battery out then in again
where have i gone wrong?
also i dont understand this
SD install:
Download the latest basefiles (haretinstall.zip) from SourceForge
Make sure to use the correct default.txt for your device. The default.txt must also point to zimage-eclair instead of zimage.??????

[Q] Lumia 800 freezes on Orange startup screen after failed update

Hi,
I'm really hoping somebody can help me.
I connected to Zune and went through the standard update instructions but the phone froze at "step 9 of 9" - I think this was during a reboot.
It just hung on the network provider screen (Orange UK).
Now, it won't go past that at all.
Orange support will provide a replacement but that won't help since I would like to retrieve my media.
Any help would be gratefully received.
Thanks in advance.
So, I did some digging and found this page:
"support.microsoft. com /kb/2484484#StuckAtSplashScreen"
Followed the instructions and got this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I really hope it's not completely irretrievable!
Tried this too but to no avail...
"windowsdiscussions. com/restoration-error-c101002e-nokia-windows-phone-3445.html"
So, in the end, I managed to flash the phone using:
"youtube. com/watch?v=puTMCG_CiMk"
However, my problem now is, it's written over all of my old media files. I used to be able to undelete files from old PC hard drives however, not sure on how to do it with a phone - any ideas?
Thanks and appreciated!
Come on guys! What does it take to get some Noobie help?!
I've done a lot on my own but could do with some real technical know-how...
Unfortunately I can't help with this, however my sister has just emailed me to say her Lumia 800 ran flat and now won't boot past the Orange logo either.
She had updated to 7.8 a few days ago. Possibly connected...

I hope that link works. I found that while browsing for HP roms. There's plenty of info. Hope it helps.
I don't have a HP tablet, but I have a nvidia shield, and I thought I bricked it so I feel your pain.
