i downloaded .301 from the link in this forum. i installed it, ran DM, plugged my phone in and nothing happened.
so i reset my computer and ran DM again, then it wants me to install .282 core apps when i have .297 installed
how do i get it to upgrade to .301?
if ur using vista then run loader as administrator.
i did that. still no luck
Do you still have .282 and .297 installed on the pc? If yes, remove them first and run DM ....
Easier way is to temporary disconnect internet (to prevent automatic update - it is lengthly process to disable automatic update), then run BDM again, i believe it will detect 0.301 OS, remember to remove vendor.xml files. (one at program files folder, the other in user folder). Hope this help
On top of what Auronthas said, ST79 is right, you must have more than one version installed. You might want to uninstall the previous versions on add/remove then run DM and plug in your phone, and it should pick up. If not, then uninstall all versions and reinstall only the latest version that you just downloaded and restart DM and plug in your phone and it should ask you if you want to upgrade.
Download preferred OS.
Delete ALL prior OS software on computer.
Install preferred OS onto computer.
(remove vendor XML if not your native carrier)
DISCONNECT ALL CONNECTIONS FROM INTERNET
Open DM and backup
Reinstall OS and preferred pieces. Follow instructions of DM.
OR
After installing OS on computer.
