Please provide step by step procedure and if possible the link from where I can get the files that need to be downloaded.

Unfortunately all the links for the wm6 rom update are down and the only one I found is for the Chinese model .But this site should have some info on the update. http://forums.imate.com/WM6_for_PDAL/m_1...

and here is what you are suppose to do go get the upgrade working.

1. Download Romupdate v1.11a

2. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete) kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe

3. put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.

4. Run Romupdate v1.11a (from downloaded)

5. from left top corner drop down menu Port: Choose WCEUSBSH001 (If you only see COM 1 and COM1 try unplugging the USB and replugging it)

6. press OK button

7. type "set 14 0" without the quotes in blank window that showed up to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.

8.press enter to execute
