Guest KSTAN Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) Below is the guide on how to setup 32bit Vista / Win7 for flashing. Do not ask me re 64bit as I couldn't find any 64bit driver for v5 (Samsung MITS USB Sync). Do provide if you have so we can test it. Thanks to VyRuz nd jazzz0904 for posting the results. Note: Use Octan Downloader v1.91 1. At WMDC, click on Mobile Device Setting, and set connection settings as below: 2. Go to ur phone, under settings (default windows mobile settings, not Samsung Main Menu Settings), go to connections, usb to pc and uncheck "Enable advanced network functionality". 3. Connect ur phone to ur PC or laptop and it will start to install the Samsung MITs USB Sync driver. 4. Go to Device Manager, under Mobile Device, 5. Double click on it, and choose Driver Tab, u shld see the driver version is 6.1 6. Click on update driver, then choose "Browse my computer for driver software" 7. Choose "Let me Pick from a list of device drivers on my computer". Click "Have Disk", and browse to the path of the driver. And it shld be installed. Important Note: Right click on "Octans Downloader v1.91.exe", click on properties, and select Compatibilty tab and set as below Important Note also; After connecting ur phone via usb cable, verify the "Samsung MITs USB Sync" driver version again to make sure it is version 5, else gotta reinstall it. Attached files: 1. Samsung CDMA driver - Samsung_CDMA_modem_4_1_.34.zip 2. Samsung MITs USB Sync driver (version 5) - Vista_v5.rar Edited October 9, 2009 by KSTAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest katerini Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I can not update to the Vista v5 drivers. I have windows vista home german. Any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KSTAN Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) Are u using 32 bit or 64bit OS? Cos the driver should be for 32bit OS only. I tried aso to update my driver, it tells me that it is not a 64bit driver hence I cannot proceed to update to version 5. After some googling, was still unable to find any 64 bit drivers. Refer to 1st post for guide. Sorry, was unable to verify after step 7 as I using 64bit Windows 7. Hope this helps. :) Edited October 9, 2009 by KSTAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest katerini Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I have update to 6.5 without these steps! Everything is ok! I have vista 32k German. The only drivers i have installed are the Samsung_CDMA_modem_4_1_.34 Everything else i have done like the update from XP.

Guest VyRuZ Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 All the steps work for Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit, with included drivers by you. Will test flashing and report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tropolite Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 All It may also be a good idea to select another option in the Compatibility window... Select the Run this progam in compatibility mode for: Windows XP (Service Pack 2 (or 3)) AND ... the last checkbox under the Privilege Level option Select "Run this program as an Administrator" That should assist with running on Win7 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest vodanhdaisu Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 (edited) Hi there, can you share Octans Downloader 1.91 ? It's hard to find it :) Thanks Edited October 9, 2009 by vodanhdaisu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jazzz0904 Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Hi there, can you share Octans Downloader 1.91 ? It's hard to find it :) Thanks Sorry for my previous statement. It actually works on both Ocans versions. Only thing is that you need to connect the usb cable many times as there seems to be a problem which can be notice under mobile devices in Windows Device Manager for the Samsung MITs USB Sync.

Did you miss: Select the Run this progam in compatibility mode for: Windows XP (Service Pack 2 (or 3)) AND ... the last checkbox under the Privilege Level option Select "Run this program as an Administrator" I had done that many times.

Guest bobobird Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 (edited) One part of the instructions may be a bit confusing. The phone would connect to Windows Mobile Device Center when the usb cable is attached. This is what you will see in device manager - The trick to updating (actually downgrading from 6.xxx to 5.xxx) to the MITS Sync driver is to turn off the phone but keep it connected. A battery charging picture will appear on the phone when you turn it off and device manager will look like this - Notice that in the first pic that the O2 is shown under portable devices and in the second it shows up in Mobile Devices. After updating with the Vista drivers in the opening post, you should see this and flashing will work 100%. Hope this helps.

Strongly agreed with bobobird. you cant downgrade MITS Sync driver while your phone is on. turn off your phone, then connect it to computer (Vista). after that you can downgrade your driver to 5. Happy flashing... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
