Re: Windows Mobile 6 for my Imate SP5m
Ok, this is not a major issue. This screen is called the bootloader. You should just be able to connect your phone back up to your PC and try flashing the ROM again.

Re: Windows Mobile 6 for my Imate SP5m
Hi murk, you won't be able to connect via WMDC until you get a ROM on. Have you got access to an XP machine? When you connect the device to the PC, do you here the ding-dong sound of a USB device being connected?

Re: Windows Mobile 6 for my Imate SP5m
Don't worry about it not connecting to activesync/Windows Mobile Device Centre just connect the device to the PC while in the tri colour screen and run the upgrade, it will still be connected and may take a few tries before the rom takes.

Re: Windows Mobile 6 for my Imate SP5m
When you run the ROM upgrade is it going through motions and showing the 0-100% progress bar?

Re: Windows Mobile 6 for my Imate SP5m
You mean it gets to 5% or it's gone to 100% 5 times? Have you tried flashing WM5 back on?
