[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
It's been pretty hectic over the past few weeks with me trying to finish up my summer online class that I'm taking, getting ready for the fall semester of my sophmore year of college, and trying to get rom building done. But I did manage to put together an updated "back-to-school" rom in the process. For those of you waiting on international version roms with WM6.5(.3), I apologize. I haven't had much time for rom building lately. However, international roms are coming soon (I can promise you that).

Thanks to Makuu (for helping to get me started), Lenny, AstainHellbring (thank you for all the nightly help sessions), the creators of the tools I used to make this rom, and anyone else that I failed to mention in name who gave me the knowledge to complete this rom.

Asus Mypal A6x6 WM6.5 version 4

Windows CE version 5.2.21911 (Build 21911.5.0.94)

This was tested on an Asus Mypal A626 (and works). It should work with the A686/A696, but the other models were not tested. Any other models NOT mentioned above WILL NOT WORK.

Instructions (I have included a txt file with same instructions for offline convenience)

Before you do anything, make sure you have at least a 256mb SD card and a card reader (you can get one at a place like Radio Shack or Office Depot). You also need to install winrar (found at http://www.win-rar.com/download.html). Your SD card must be formatted with the FAT16 file system.

To format your SD Card with the FAT16 file system

Step 1: To do this insert the SD Card into the reader and go to "My Computer".

Step 1a: BACKUP YOUR FILES before you start!!

Step 2: Right-click the drive letter of the SD Card reader (differs for each computer, probably either E:\ or F:\ or G:\) and click "Format".

Step 2a: Don't worry about any of the options except for file system, choose "FAT"

Step 3: Click "Start" and wait until it is done

Step 1: Get (OS) rom image

Step 2: Extract files to any folder on hard drive using Winrar

Step 3: Go to the folder where you extracted the files in the RAR archive

Step 4: Make sure that the filename is "CANNES_A_WM6.img"

Step 4a: if the img file it's not exactly "CANNES_A_WM6.img", rename it to that

Step 5: Format the SD card if you haven't already done so using the instructions above

Step 6: Copy the img file to the SD card, see step 6a

Step 6a: Make sure that the img file is the ONLY file on the SD card after formatting

Step 7: Take SD Card out of SD Card reader and put it in the a6x6

Step 8: Make sure that the a6x6 is plugged in via ac adapter before doing the next few steps

Step 9: activate SD Loader using the following instructions {

Step 9a: Hold down the power button and enter button (that's the button in the center of the d-pad)

Step 9b: Double tap the soft reset button while holding the other 2 buttons

Step 9c: After double tapping the soft reset button, keep the other 2 buttons held until a blue screen comes up that says something like Asus Cannes flashing utility

Step 9d: Wait until the process is finished (it's near the end when it says "writing private")

}

Step 10: At this point, your a6x6 should reboot on its own

Step 11: enjoy your updated rom

If you have any questions, feel free to just post or PM me.

As I release new roms, if you have a support question, please give me the rom version so I know what rom you are working with. You can get the rom version from the filename of the rom pack.

Example: Asus_A626_WM614_1

A626 = device (most often it will be A626, will rarely be different), WM614 = os version, 1 = release #
