No one answered to my problem, but I found solution myself :)

For all Vista x64 users - there is a possbility to flash ROM under our OS !!

HOW TO FLASH A ROM IN VISTA X64

First - most important thing - you must disable driver signature checking on

your desktop PC!! To do so - restart your PC, and before booting Vista,

press F8, and chose to start Vista without driver signature checking!

Next, system will start normally... After that:

1. Disable USB connection in Mobile Device Center

2. Enter bootloader mode on your UNI

3. Download attached file and extract it somewhere (this is other driver,

that posted before - download it!)

4. Open Device manager, find Microsoft USB Sync, chose to update

driver

5. Chose second option, and next again second option (to find driver manually)

6. On window that appears, chose to select driver From Disk, and browse

to the files yo have extracted - chose wceusbshx64.inf file.

7. Chose the new Microsoft USB Sync device from list (without "(Microsoft)"

string at the end)

Driver should now be installed without problems, and you can flash your UNI :)

To test if all is OK, pls run exit bootloader exe file, that you can

download from the first post in this topic.

That's all :) Maybe someone could add this to Wiki?

Dude Simple Rule Uninstall Driver Then Install Duanes

I found the simplest way. Before my updating process said "The Driver already Up To Date" But I uninstalled the driver. And then refresh, installed the driver from Duanes and works like a charm. Simple way Uninstall then Install the driver you want and you can start flashing on Vista. Hope this helps

Hey guys!

Where can I get that "magic drivers" that you talking about?

I have tried to flash WM6 on Vista and now my phone is showing only "serial" or "usb" screen. :(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] themonkbythesea:
Using wrong usb port to flash

Attempted steps repeatedly (exactly as stated) with no success. I got to step stating "USB Sync" but uniexitbootloader would not pull up. Kept telling to check my connection. Finally after about an hour I switched the usb port device was connected to. I was pugged into usb port on side of monitor and switched to usb port on tower, even though usb on monitor works fine. Well, as soon as i made switch the uniexitbootloader worked and i then successfully upgraded rom.

Maybe just a newbie mistake, but maybe it will help others out.

Anyways, everything worked great and was able to flash rom on Vista Home Premium OS in about 15 mins!!! Thanks!!!

the driver is not beeing accepted, i believe its due to my vista beeing x64 edition.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] MOSH007:
I 'am not able to install the USB driver. The systems is always saying that i have the updated driver. If i de-install, as suggested bu some of you, them i cannot see the mobile device in the manage device screen, even after a list refresh (of course if no driver existe...it is not recognize).

So i don't know what to do. Iam stuck in the bootloader and when I run the UNI_ExitBootloader it says to make usre the USB check if deactivate (it is) and that it is connected to a USB (it is).

I'am returning to a XP to flash it...

Tried all i can and still need HELP!

Im trying to finally update WM5 to WM6.

I used the following file from Qtek site 359682-bl1.01_ruu_uni_v1.2.

It asked to restart and i did but then after which the Qtek9000 would show dark screen with 'serial' v.1.00 and with usb cable connected would show USB v.1.00.

the next step when trying to install the following

2007161010BL10_RUU_UNI_V11

I still get error 101.

In trying your way device manager say driver is already the best installed.

With USB cable attached i tried the power+light+reset and tried the UNI_ExitBootloader and got the error 'cannot open USB port.........."

i made sure activesyn is disabled and tried various ways to do these steps and still no luck!

reinstalled window mobile device and tried again.

What am i doing wrong?

thanks for your advise.

:eek:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] vijaykishen:
for the folks who cant install the driver from the zip

At step 4 if you are getting the message that says best driver already installed, choose "Let me pick from a list of drivers", On the next dialog click "Have Disk" and then browse to the folder that has the unzipped driver. This should get vista to pick it up and install it.

Worked for me.

Thanks duanes.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] SonikVoom:
Great work! Just needed to learn how to manually update drivers...

Great work Duanes! My XV6600 got stuck in bootloader mode during a failed rom update for daylight savings time in the US. Your exitbooloader application and vista drivers did the trick.

The only thing is that I didn't know how to manually update the drivers. I needed to do these steps in order for it to work

- Browse your computer

- Let me pick from a list of drivers on my computer

- Unclick show compatiable hardware

- Click Have disk

- Choose the driver wherever you downloaded the file.

I think that's why some of the people were sayint that the USB could not be found when they ran the exitbooloader application.

Thanks a lot though!

Unknown device...

It's interesting what happen to me a few minutes ago...

I have Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit, WMDC 6.1 and Universal.

When I attach via USB my Universal in Bootloader mode (USB option disabled under WMDC) I receive this error from Vista: "Unknown device".

The device in not recognized and nothing happen under "Mobile device"!!!

I solved the problem only changing my usb cable!!!

Interesting...

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kemp509:
My laptop says that the device drivers are up to date and won't update to the ones I downloaded. So it would seem that I am stuck.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] KALI2000:
It works perfectly.

Read carefully this post.

You need to update the driver manually, if not, will not be able to install the driver.

You need to do this without sd/sdhc and without the sim.

If you follow these instructions, you can flash with success.

Remember:

When you update the driver of the mobile device, you must select the driver version of the device manually. The 6.xx.xx Instead, it has to be the 4.xx.xx.

And if, I have not mistaken, the driver is predated the current driver.

Greetings.

Kali.:cool:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] minau:
I have the same problem, I`m sorry, I`m a newbie on this matters.

I`ve upgraded my universal from wm5 to wm6 and everything runed ok.

I made it thru Vista. So, at the time, I must have installed the ideal modem drivers on my device to run the upgrade.

That`s why I can`t install the modem drivers stated here becouse windows says:

....Windows as determined that your device already as the best manager installed.

So I`m stuck, I can`t go anywhere...

Some help would be apreciated, please.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] rdosti:
Keep yourself in Bootloader mode....

On your PC -

1. Device Mgr.

2. Right click on USB Sync.

3. Update Software

4. Browse My Computer...

5. Let Me Pick from....

6. Untick Compatible

7. Have Disk...

8. wceusbsh file select

9. You'll see the option for the driver , accept and install (its version 2004 year, Vista by default gives you version 2006 or higher).

10. Install and make sure your Version shows as 2004 year

11. If not working, uninstall usb sync

12. Let Vista find the device,

13. GO back to step 1

After that you can directly keep your Universal in bootloader mode and FLASH using the CID Bypass zip RUU (by Olipro).

To All those people who still have been Unsuccessful

Hi friends,

There are so many things to look into to install the old drivers. Many people have found out some inherent properties of the OS itself which dont let you install the old driver. After reading all the replies in this thread, I found out one more thing which hasnt been covered yet. There are many branded computers which store a back up of softwares as well as drivers in the C drive itself or at some other preconfigured location. So even if you uninstall the new drivers and do a refresh it will again install the new drivers even before you try to give it another path(where your old drivers are located). In that case , you should find out where is the back up of those drivers. Try changing that location and then do the normal procedure , it will work like charm.

One more thing, this is an online forum please don't get into arguments here like who is knowledgeable and who is not. We are here to help each other and not fight.

for those who cannot exit the bootloader in vista

for everyone who cannot exit the bootloader at all and cannot install the older usb drivers for the Universal when u get to the stage where u browse for the custom drivers and it says the latest drivers are already installed. click on "Let Me Pick from a list of device drivers" and then "Have Disk" and point to where u have saved the older downloaded drivers. and it should work perfectly. its probably like hard over-riding i guess. hope this helps i was stuck on this bootloader for ages myself.

Very badly struggling!

Sorry duanes

:confused:, is there any way of selecting the driver. I'm running Vista premium & I cannot get DM to install drivers from your USB_MODEM_VISTA files. It just thtrows a huge list of drivers at me when I tell it that "I have disk". Also can anyone help me with Windows Mobile installation, as I don't understand what you all mean by "flashing" & therefore what I need to do after I've tried to upgrade the ROM drivers! Hoping I'm not too much of a pain, Many thanks, JnH
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] v6lin1970:
I think you're exatly right,I installed the old driver sucessfully ,but it rolled back to the new one instantly even before the flash begins when my wizard connects pc.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sawo:
Im using Windows Server 2008 64bit so vista modem drivers n stuff are no go.I know how manually select the drivers, but windows just says they are incompatible (INCOMPATIBLE, not up-to-date or anything else - windows just says they perhaps arent good for x64 etc even for the 64bit ones).

So here is what i done and what WILL WORK ON ANY SYSTEM - from win 2000 to win server 2008 64bit or windows 7 beta or whatever your using.

Install vmware (i used VMware Workstation 6.0.4 Build 93057)

Install WinXP-SP2/3 on it

make sure the usb device is selected on the top of the vmplayer.

install activesync, sync the phone.

install .NET FRAMEWORK 2.0 OR NEWER

start the ruu wrapper

flash & enjoy.

no need for crappy drivers, just install vmware, flash, uninstall vmware.thats all.

Thanks to all the 'keen contributions' and especially to duane...

I have a Samsung Blackjack I (i-607) which had the official Samsung WM6 ROM, but have followed a Blackjack tweaker/enthusiast site where a member cooked a WM6.1 ROM (build 19700.1.0.0) which is about 500 more builds updated then the recently released Blackjack II WM 6.1 build (192008)....

However, I just got a Windows Vista (Home Premium) laptop, and even though the Samsung site now has a Vista downloaded link.....one can not utilize their instructions to successfully flash to a 'cooked ROM'...

So after loading/installing the Samsung Modem drivers, I then followed all the instructions here and man am I a 'happy camper'....as my olde BJ I now has a new life again!

Do I have to install the provided vista driver everytime I boot my PC? Because after booting just now when I attempted a 2nd ROM upgrade my uni stuck in the boot loader mode,

I restarted my desktop,attached uni through usb,updated the driver as per described and then everything is normal.

So does it require repeatation,because I think the desktop installs the latest(useless for us)driver after every reboot automatically.

Experts please suggest some solution.Thanks again.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] -Jonny-:
Make sure you use same USB connection on your PC. Otherwise you have to install driver again.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kalya:
Thanks,but every time I connect my Uni it automatially installs/updates the driver,is there no way to change the drivers permanently?:confused:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] -Jonny-:
Once driver has been installed for a USB port, it will not need to be installed again. I use my UNI in same USB port each time. Make sure you're not using a hub. What you describe is unusual behaviour.
