Comment on Upgrading your AT&T Tilt to Windows Mobile 6.5 (tutorial) by Tiggy

Still have not found the time to do the upgrade! Maybe by the time I have some time to do it Windows PHone 7 will be out? Wonder if the tilt will take that and if it be worth it. From what I have read “not” for business, more iPhone type.

Worked like a charm. Though I downloaded the Titanium version of the ROM and my SMS Text Messaging doesn’t work. I am going to try version 11 to see what happens.

Hi Dustin,

update:
atd.exe –respref “720p” –tdate=2010-03-01 –fake
Fetching trailer list from Apple.
downloading because of trailer date: Karate Kid
downloading because of trailer date: The Runaways
downloading because of trailer date: Killers
downloading because of trailer date: The Good Heart
downloading because of trailer date: A Nightmare On Elm Street
downloading because of trailer date: After.Life
6 trailers to fetch. (Limiting dl to 0 MB)

While there are 14 trailers after 1st of March. If the param should include the trailers from 1st of March too, then there are even more.

To make it clear. This is really not a complaint, thank you for the wonderful script, I am just wondering if you can do anything about this?

Thank you!

I assume this works with sync center that is used with windows vista? It seems to work ok until step 5.4.

In step 5.4 it does not go the step up mode, where you set the screen with the stylus. I continue anyway but it does not update to 6.5. All that happened is I lost all my setup, not a big deal since it is backed up.

I am fairly sure I am following all the step but 6.1 is still on the startup screen. Any suggestions?

Hi Dustin,

thanks for the feedback. Two comments:
– I ran again the script in the afternoon and two of the 4 new trailers from yesterday has been downloaded (The Runaway and After.Life), but two is still remaining. Based on this most probably they will be downloaded as well at some future run…

I needed the extra quotemarks, because I found no other way to save the trailers without the “-trailer” string addition.

@olympia: I suspect those are trailers it had trouble downloading because of connection issues or some such thing. I’m running a test with your commandline now (except I removed the extra quote marks you have).

Hey Dustin,

first of all, thank you for this excellent script.
Let me also ask a question.
I ran the script on 28 Feb for the first time, it downloaded somewhat 96 trailers.
I ran it again today and it downloaded two new trailers:
– The Young Victoria
– Leaves of Grass
Checking apple’s website the first one was posted on 3 Dec 2009 and the second one on 8 Feb.

My question is why they are only downloaded today?
And also, new trailers from 2 March haven’t been downloaded (Defendor, After.Life, The Runaway, etc.)

I invoked the script both times with:
atd.exe” –respref “720p” -d “z:\Trailers2″ -r -a “”

Am I doing something wrong which resulting the new ones are not going to be downloaded?

Thank you for your feedback in advance!

I don’t understand what you’re asking for.

This script will download the trailer you mention and doesn’t require installation, and you don’t have to stop, pause, “location”, or do any changing of user-agent strings.
