I just got my I600, my version is : i600JVGE2 (PDA,Phone,Eboot same)

When I enter this to the box in the update page and push OK, it keeps on asking me to enter my version number?

Has anyone seen this?

Here is a screenshot:

try type i600XXGD1 - it will make your way to second site with registry form, and at 3rd step to dowload.

Hi everyone, I wanted to let everyone out there with Asian firmware that the double flashing method worked perfectly for me.

I first flashed my i600 with the European XXGD1 release, and once that was done, went into operator settings, and changed the location to dutch, and then ran the WM6 update.

It works!

Give it a shot if you want WM6!

Where did you download the WM6 updater exe file? Does it have to be downloaded from Dutch flag site? Or any other downloaded updater would also work?

I downloaded mine from another country's flag, but it gives me incorrect version now?

I cannot flash mine to XXGD1 no matter what..

I installed the modem driver from the wm6 update page.
I installed the modem driver found in the XXGD1 zip folder.

I uninstalled both drivers and reinstalled them again.

When I get to the downloader mode the activesync starts but fails to recognize my device. Then the uploader fails, even the start button does not become active. Activesync does recognize my device fine however when the phone is powered on.

What should I do?

When you are flashing your device with XXGD1, DISABLE ACTIVESYNC since it is not needed for the old updater (XXGD1). It seems to interfere with the updater; at least it was so in my case, with the same symptoms as in your case (updater fails, Activesync says "unrecognised device", and you cannot flash).

Instead of uninstalling ActiveSync prior to flashing with XXGD1, you can simply kill its task (CTRL+ALT+DEL, then kill WCESCOMM.EXE process), and then try the updater again.

You can then launch ActiveSync again prior to flashing your phone with WM6.

If you are using Panateo's method of flashing, which I suppose you are, then it *HAS* to be Dutch version because you are going to use service menus to tell your i600 that it is Dutch, prior to flashing.

I disconnected a bluetooth dongle from the PC and now the flashing is OK.
I think the bt dongle was blocking the COM ports.

It happens sometimes. Just re-install modem drivers to be sure, and try again.

Oh, sorry, I forgot about that... Yes, they all seem to point to the same file. Strange that it doesn't work for you, then. You could try selecting one of the other languages which are available for download in i600 system menus, perhaps...

Hi Guys,

I've just updated an Italian i600, following these steps:

- Update the i600 to s/w i600XXGD1 if not already with that version
- Change the pre-settings to dutch version:

Enter in the "Admin setting" menu:
*#1546792*#

Enter in the "Preconfiguration" menu:
Operator Code *#81230*#

- select "Netherlands", the phone will reboot a couple of times

- run the "i600UXXupdater.exe" and follow the instructions.

Then, if you need to change your Country / Operator, you need to perform the "Admin" procedure again.


Since WM6 uses a larger memory partition, I suppose that the first boot code modifies the partition before upgrading the phone with the proper WM6.

I also think that the s/w version is one for all the country, since xx means generic Europe. "U" is surely referred to the WM6 sersion of the i600.

hope this helps,

Regards,
PT


I just followed panateo's instructions and worked like a charm!!!! I had the i600v from Oz....Finally! WM6!!!! THANKS SO MUCH PT!!!!!

Everyone says they followed panateo's instructions but I am not sure if it explains everything from my point of view. So can anyone explain what "Update the i600 to s/w i600XXGD1 if not already with that version" is. How to do this. Is it the rapidshare link in the i600 wiki. Should we install the modem driver before that.

IN fact I may want a step-by-step because its the question of whether I will brick my phone or NOT.

BY the way if I did not update my XXGC4 to XXGD1 will WM6 update work. In either case will any Nordic WM6 work instead of Netherlands update which is not present in the website now.

Thanksa lot
