TUTORIAL: The long awaited solution on how to use the SD Image Loader for flashing

[webvan]

Well I found this http://www.aximsite.com/boards/x50-h...ease-help.html so it seems PPCTECH can't help with our type of problem, crap, wonder what happened, I didn't get any errors when flashing the DiMa_B_A02_X50v_WM5_EN.nb0 bootloader so don't understand why it's not booting up to the SD Loader mode

I went through the update process (a04) but when I hard reset i get a message to press () to continue and () to cancel. Both return to a blank screen. Any thoughts?

Keep trying wireless+power+reset.. It will eventually work again.

According to the XDA developer site, it's possible to get into the Axim's Diagnostic Mode by Presssing: RECORD + POWER + RESET. If you can get to the diagnostic screen, you may be able to reanimate your Axim.


Here's the link(s) to the discussion:.

Actually you hold down the power + wireless + do a reset. Hold all of these in place for at least 2 seconds. After 2 seconds release the reset but continue to hold down the power + wireless buttons until the boot menu comes up. At that point you can let go of all buttons. Another item is to have the unit powered by AC not battery. Works every time for me and I have done this well over 25 times.

I downloaded the appropriate fiile for my x50v but only got 1 image file not the .crc file. Im guessing the links been changed it is 3 years old now, thought I'd download the files just in case my x50v packs up

Remember, if you want to change from WM2003 to WM5 and vice versa you will have to change the prefixes of the bootloader files after extracting... ;-)

BTW...I still need an X51v A06 Rom-Image for testing purposes...

All rapidsharing links expired. I need nb0/nb0.crc files for 2003 bootloader. Goal 6.1 but I stuck on 2003 bootloading

You have to provide a little bit more info. Do you know what version of WM5 you have installed? The latest one is A12. If you don't have it, download it from Dell here: Drivers and Downloads. Follow directions given.

After flashing A12, look at my post here on WM6.1 ROMS. Keep in mind that these are 3rd-party ROMs that MAY have bugs and flash at your own risk! It voids your warranty if you flash. Then, tell us and we can help you flash step-by-step.

Personally, I recommend LennySh's L11 WM6.1 ROM because of it's extreme speed.
