This may have already been answeard and I'm sorry for asking.
I have the SGH-i600 Asian version and by mistake upgraded the device to the i607 (Blackjack) ROM.
Out of the event I now have a phone that is a expensice brick.
Please if there is anyone that knows of how I am able to fix this stupid mistake I made I would
be most greatfull.


What to do if my phone is a brick by flashing with wrong rom?

Yes I just saw that dry.gif

Here's the page link to the person who posted that link. He/she seems very knowledgeable maybe send them a personal message?

At the bottom of this Post #286 link you'll see where he said go here if phone is bricked. Best luck friend.

Hi everyone...

I need a bit of help with flashing my i600 (BUGC3, Vodafone firmware) to a new wm6. I tried to use xippon's method but when I try to flash the first time the upgrader says that I should choose the image file... (from where? how? there's nothing like that in the instructions...)

tks a bunch

P.S. That thing to go into adminsetting (*#...) does not work for me...

Thanks to all those who have helped document this process.. biggrin.gif

I was able to go from a Spanish (?) Vodafone i600BUGB1 WM5 i600 to the WM6 upgrade...

unfortunately I've noticed after the upgrade, i switched the location to "Default" (using the admin *#.....*# sequence) and now my keyboard (which appears to be a european style) no longer maps correctly to what is marked on the keys

ie:
under the original rom - Fn+# brought up the symbols page, this now brings up a ","

although I am in Australia and this is a desired effect, having the Symbols page was more handy..

can anyone advise how I can change the keyboard layout of WM6 to match the actual keys of my device?

I have (had) BUGB1 so the *# admin mode didn't work for me either,

Download the 'unbranded' WM5 from here: http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/Samsung_i600

Then put your device into Bootloader mode (as documented).. flash with that ROM (make sure modem driver is installed)

once you have done, admin mode will work, you can change the country and then install the official rom.. smile.gif

(this is all mentioned in this thread, but it's about page 24 tongue.gif)

I did download the unbranded wm5 version from the exact same location however, the main problem still exists. I have an active sync connection (and I have killed the USB conn) I installed the drivers and put the device into bootloade mode, however when I try to flash it says that I need to choose the image file, and there is no image file and no possible way for me to select it even if it existed...

I did browse through this thread (not very carefully though) but I did not see that anyone has the same problem...

hello
I have a great problem.
When I have updated my i600 to WM6 he has remained an unemployed person. I have had to extinguish and when I have ignited alone there goes out for me the screen of beginning of Samsung:
The Ultra messaging.
And of there it(he,she) does not move.
It(He,She) does not synchronize me with the activeSync. I have followed(continued) all the steps correctly.
I enter in boot loader and neither it(he,she) synchronizes
Since I can synchronize and install a new firmware?

IT HELPS PLEASE blink.gif

Did you use this -

- type on phone *#1546792*# (or run hidden program in WindowsAdminSettings.exe) to get to admin settings menu
- chose option "Preconfiguration"
- type password: *#81230*#
- select country: (your country of choice)
- select operator: (whatever option)
