Flashing 6000L onto a 6000W
« on: October 13, 2004, 10:37:55 pm »
I had to edit the updater.pro file and change the top-most comment of 'SL-6L' to 'SL-6W' so that the updater launched from a reset+D+P would not complain.  Other than that, it was painless.

If anyone has the flash files for a 6000W, I'd appreciate a link.  I'd like to have the option of flashing back to the Japanese 6000W for testing my Bluetooth periodically to make sure it works while I try to get it going under an English ROM.

Try there.

As far as I can tell, there are no specific ROMs for L, W, N, etc. in Japanese, so maybe the Bluetooth will work automatically in the Eng version? Or maybe not...
Sorry. I just don't have the time...

Thanks.  I agree that it doesn't look like there are L/W/N specific ROMs.  Bluetooth doesn't work out-of-the-box under the English ROM, but maybe the English ROM is missing the drivers but does have Bluetooth-aware applications.  In that case, if I slap in the Bluetooth drivers, it could "just work".

You need bluez and some scripts to start/stop bluetooth etc. See http://externe.net/zaurus/bluetooth-audio-sco/
