      When using VISTA this method did not work. It did work when using XP on my laptop.

  • tlm

    I am running Vista Home Premium 32 bit. I can get it to show run as Admistrator but when I click on config it is not giving me the device id options. I am using RSD 4.1. I really just want to get this flashed so any help you can give would be great. Thanks

    The solution to all of your problems is you need to turn off device and boot in USB mode. You do that by
    - holding the power and menu key while phone is turning on
    - also you must have the correct drivers downloaded you can get those from motorola
    - then once RSDLite is booted as an administrator then plug in phone and the device should be listed
    ( it may take a few times to have the process go threw though )

      thank you

      Works like a charm — thanks, Benjamin.

      Just make sure you:
      1. Register with ModMyMobile to download the firmware.
      2. Boot in USB mode
      3. And use Run as Administrator

    So my phone was already unlocked and unbranded. if I flash it back using one of the t-mobile firmwares, will it be locked to t-mobile?
