Guest wish master Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Here is the way I've done. Hope this will help those who is using vista to flash their rom for omnia. WHOEVER WANT TO TRY, DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK BUT THIS METHOD WORK FOR ME FLAWLESSLY. READ CAREFULLY AND DON'T MISS ANY STEP I MENTIONED BELOW. Step 1. BACK UP, BACK UP & BACK UP ALL DATAs (contact and SMS - I use easyhelper contact and SMS backup to do so) Step 2. Install Samsung modem driver for vista Step 3. Install Window mobile centre, make sure your phone is connected to your vista. Step 4. Install i900 executor and disassemble and any official/cooked/custom rom (usually those are meant for xp but no worry, just disassemble, do remember which folder you keep those disassembled images). Step 5. Switch Off power of your omnia and connect to PC with USB cable Step 6. Install and run USDL Grandprix v1.6.4 for vista Step 7. In Grandprix - No 1. Make sure you choose grandprix LV image. No 2. Select images to download - choose respective image from Step 4. Viz. Loader, PDA, CSC (some rom don't have CSC no woory, go without it), Phone. You can even mix you different phone version from other rom but LOADER, PDA and CSC (if applicable) must be from same rom. For me I mixed Loader, PDA and CSC from one rom and for phone (DXHK3) from another rom. Make sure Phone Bootloader update is ticked. Step 8. Switch on your omnia before you go to grandprix step 3. Step 9. Grandprix step 3, make sure tick on start download immediately. Then click on DETECT. You may see some text keep appear on right pane of grandprix. If you don't see any movement, switch off the power of your omnia and switch on again. Step 10. Now you will see download progress is start moving in the right pane of grandprix. DO NOT REMOVE USB CABLE AND DON'T TOCH OMNIA AT THIS MOMENT. LET IT RUN TILL EVERYTHING DONE. YOU WILL SEE BLUE COLOR IN PROGRESS BAR AT RIGHT PANE AFTER COMPLETE. Step 11. Now you can disconnect your omnia. Step 12. Enjoy using you phone with newly installed rom. Hope this will help who are really lost (like me) in how to flash omnia ROM with window vista.

Now, as a bit of background, my phone has been like this for a couple of days now, since trying to flash to a new rom and the phone update seemed to fail to write successfully. Since then, when attempting to reflash have had the above problem when trying to flash via xp (using vmware that has never been a problem in the past). I was encouraged to see this Vista solution and everything was fine except for the same error! As far as I can understand, the devices resets itself prior to writing the phone.bin file in order to re-register with Windows as a modem type device - this does not seem to be happening (in XP or Vista) so consequently the phone download fails. This has now left the device with everything working except the phone bit - there is no 'phone with !' screen at startup and the phone cannot be turned on in Wireless Manager. Can anyone help? Or is it stuffed completely? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
