Upgrading WM5 --> WM6/WM6.5 problems. - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading

Hello everyone.
I know this topic is listed everywhere in this forum but somehow am getting very confused with what I've read so I hope you guys can help me out here instead.
---
This is my situation.
I'm currently using an O2 Atom Exec with a WM5 OS and I would really LOVE to change it to WM6/WM6.5 (seeing all the Youtube videos having touchflo/HTC & iPhone features) are really interesting.
So I tried downloading several ROMs today and none of them is working on me. I've done all the steps required (copy the 6 files to C:/Windows/Temp and then run the DSUU).
After a few minutes, my mobile will just get disconnected with the PC and it says "No Download Target Found" and the "Connection Error" will appear after.
---
So am just wondering what is wrong because I tried during it for the whole afternoon already and it just won't work. I'm getting frustrated.
Hope you guys can help out with some step-by-step tutorial or a pictorial tutorial will be fantastic. Thanks a lot.

hlp needed serial/usb screen and tried everything, no luck

first of all i have been searching the forum all week and not been able to find a solution.
ive been trying to help a friend who has an orange m1000.
he cant say exactly how it happened but hes left with just the serial/usb screen and ver1.03.
i have tried everything i know to get it running again including putting the rom from my o2 xda2 on to sd and trying to boot from that but get
sections 1 unable to load error.
i have downloaded a rom from orange but with not being able to connect to activesync im stuck.
if anyone can give me an idiots guide or point me to an existing one you would have my evrlasting thanks. (i told my friend it would only tak a couple of hours and it's been over a week now)
i dont care what rom it takes as long as i can get it to work again.

M1000 stuck in bootloader screen

Hi All,
As a newbie on the block I have been reading trhough the various posts here on upgrading or updating the PPC. There is a lot to be found on what rom's to use etc, etc, but nonetheless I am now stuck after a partial upgrade probably with a m1000 that will not go any further then the bootloader.
As i gathered from other posts it's waiting to be "fed".
But the feeding is not working, with none of the realeases I tried for this Himalaya type.
All of them either lock up or bum out with an error 119, telling me to reset the device and try again...
I can keep doing this until i'm old and grey I guess as each time the same thing happens.
Anyone here have a suggestion how to get some new data into "his brain" or should I just consider the unit trashed and throw it into a wastebin ?
I am really lost here. Any help is much appreciated.

Help - Please

Sorry for annoying every one here. The problem with phone is this.
I have a O2 XDA Mini S which I recently bought. The person I bought it off had removed the O2 stuff with some other ROM. There was a few niggly problems mainly the symbol keys were assigned to the wrong keys etc.
I followed a link on the O2 website which said it was an upgrade. I installed this and it appears to actually have "downgraded" the phone. Now my phone once again has all the O2 branded stuff, I'm not an O2 customer. I'm on Meteor in Ireland.
I've tried downloading almost every file I could find related to this. New ROMs etc but once I try to install them the screen goes RGB and I get Error 300 invalid update tool
As I said I've try almost all links I can find to rectify this with no joy.
Could some very nice person out there, talk me through the steps to get my phone back running with an up to date ROM?
I'd greatly appreciate it guys. I'm a total newbie at this so I hope you'll take it easy on me
you need to use shelltool.
you will find it at the top of the G4 forum.
hope this helps.
Thanks Stabloid.
I'll give that a try when I get home. Do I just run the shell tool and then install the ROM?
Hey Stabloid,
I downloaded Shelltool. Unfortunately there was no instructions with it.
From what I could figure out I put the two cab files on the xda/ wizard and installed them there. I rebooted the xda then tried running the shell tool.
I've tried it a few times. I let the program run for an hour last night and nothing happend it just kept saying "Do not disconnect..."
The other error I kept getting was "please make hard reset" followed by a list of instructions which I followed and yet still got the same results.
Can someone please help me out with this or supply full instructions for the shell tool?
Thanks.

i have an o2 atom exec (using RC3 rom with touchflo) and yesterday i /soft reseted/ the phone because it was acting funny, after the reset it would be stuck at the startup screen and would not load past that the whole day, so i waited and re-tried in the evening.. the same thing occured... i was at the time able to load into bootloader (MN2) but then could do nothing else.. so i searched throughout the forums and found a post by 'chartreux' http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1684559&highlight=EBOOT.NB0 but had not read the entire post and proceeded to load (mn1) onto my phone via mini sd card and it worked, my phone was working again, it performed a hard reset and restored it to factory settings (ie: calendar, msgs, contacts, software all gone) and phone is working normally again... since it has done this i wanted to update to 'wm6.1 atom exec rom' just to be up-to-date and have synced it via activesync and have run "DSUU" but my phone just restarts and loads the current rom i have installed! and just repeats everytime i have tried (have tried atleast 50 times)
so my main question.. is my bootloader dead? i know my phones not bricked since its still working perfectly im just not able to upgrade my ROM but can still do everything else (such as browse through files, run programs, make calls)

what version of your bootloader now? MN2 or MN1? if still MN1 please read again the thread to update your bootloader to MN2 (since your device is ATOM EXEC).
and after done, please check when you run DSUU, see on the left bottom whether have a drop down box or not? if yes then choose "ALL"
hope this can help to solve your problem.
hey! thanks for the reply mate!
but im not sure i cant check the version of my bootloader...
wont let me get into it by pressing camera+SR or camera+off button..
just boots straight into the operating system.
and, as for the DSUU it just restarts the phone after i choose all, and goes through to the today screen on the phone, and as for the DSUU update its stays at the screen which shows "The current software is now being updated from your device."
followed by an error appearing after a few minutes showing " No download target was found!!" even though my atomexec is synced
which is then followed by the "connection error" screen.
please help.. this is seriously pissing me off...

try to downgrade again your bootloader to MN1 (please do it step by step). as long you can secure your bootloader, hopefully you can resolved your problem.
remember to upgrade again to MN2 once you able to downgrade to MN1 before try flashing to wm6.1.
good luck.
still cant access bootloader.. even when trying DSUU it just boots straight into the operating system, when trying to update and also i tried the MN1 bootloader again and tried to get into it... still nothing.. it just resets, i tried it with my 4GB mini sd, 2gb msd, and a 64mb mini sd.. could not get into it... sigh...
Ok try a deep breath and read all the posts on dead boatloaders and other upgrading problem posts through and through. Then try to change ur USB cable and what system are u using i.e XP or Vista????
thankyou kindly, for the suggestions i have been reading through alot of posts and tried alot but.. nothing so far.. i guess its not too bad since its stuck on windows mobile 6 with abusalzas rom..
im just annoyed i cannot upgrade to the latest 'rom' and since my phone 'had' to perform a hard reset why not update so yeh.. and i am using windows xp for my computers os.
Did u change the USB cable mate, once I had to do it and the interesting thing is that the same USB cable was working perfectly for other things but causing problems when connecting to my Atom Exec.
yeh tried it with my old v3 cable didnt work has the same outcomes.. sigh.. i might try that dead bootloader hardware and software recovery from this post by Alex_Beda & 1stMASTER

[Q] Resetting the original hero in Rom 1.5

Hello everyone,
That's my problem:
almost a year since I turned in different custom rom, which had never caused any problems. Then my screen started to lose its sensitivity, or even move all alone. So I recommend it as everywhere trying to return to the origin.
I am currently in the 2.1 HTC last updated.
The screen is much better. But I want to return to 1.5, to really be sure I completely reset.
And that's where the trouble begins. Unable to install the HTC RUU, always the same error (Error 170: bad version of bootloader), whereas it normally means a problem with drivers. I checked several times these drivers, be it XP or Win 7 64. Always the same message.
And then I fell in that you (really sorry) I had completely forgotten. So I tried to follow the tutorial "How to restore the firmware of the HTC hero.
There can not run the commands, I put: "Into rebooting bootloader ... FAILED <remote: allow> not verbatim or 'downloading' boot.img '... FAILED <remote: not allow>
And I do not see what I could do differ between the two responses.
I'm starting to believe I'm even more noob than I thought.
I guess the question has to be asked of you, but then it starts making long as I want and I can not find.
I see no reason why it does not work because he sees in fastboot My phone devices.
Does anyone have an idea for the method I should follow or tell me why this command does not work. (Although for lines order Now began with the first root of my phone, then virtually unknown).
If there is already a topic or a wiki, thank you for giving me the links if possible.
Counting on a pretty fast response from you all.
In advance thank you for the help you can give me.
PS: sorry for the novel, but I think I managed to summarize all the parameters of my worries.
PS: I think I have tried all methods so far found only one positive is that I'm sure my drivers, still appears in them because MyHTC, it is in bootloader or in sync.
Sorry for my bad english but it's a traduction for google.
