kijk dat is nog eens een lekker snel antwoord, super!
Laatste (domme) vraag ik heb win7 64-bits geen probleem hoop ik ?

Let me know how the flashing went
Aslo, thanks for making me look that up, now my tutorial is able to be used with even more devices!

vierde regel moet zijn
type *#7465625# to check your lock

[Gibeon]

Aangezien je met grandprix flasht maakt het gelockte gebeuren niets uit, voor zover ik weet. Via de officiele weg werkt het inderdaad niet

Bedankt voor de tip, mijn bron had het verkeerd en ik daarom dus ook. Ik heb nu de bron verandert naar het topic op XDA-developers, waar dit goed staat. Hoe gaat het tot nu toe?

Oke, bedankt, ik heb hier namelijk zelf geen ervaring mee. (Flashen met een ge-sim-locked apparaat)
Maar het is toch handig om geen sim lock op je apparaat te hebben

Bedankt voor de tip, ik zal dat toevoegen! zelf zet ik UAC (die overbodige, irritante meldingkjes van vista en 7 als je iets opent -__-) uit (waardoor alles als administrator word uitgevoerd) dus ik wist hier niks van.
NL: En er hoeft geen csc bij nee, ook geen eboot trouwens, maar als deze inbegrepen is zou ik hem wel meeflashen.

EN: And there's no need for a csc file indeed, you don't need a eboot file either, but I'd flash it if you have one, just to be sure..

ok, here is the result, the phone was proably the oldest one out there t-mobile branded...............and it worked !!
a few tips, connect the phone to laptop and wait for drivers to load. shut down phone start it up again and wait for drivers to load again ? yes and again ....
the third time win7 finally knew that it was the same phone all the time and that the drivers where loaded so all was well.
In grandprix I unchecked the start download immedialty and tryied checking for phone it was found (took 3 go's) when all was fine the button start download came up and I started.
1 min later it said stopped because off bla bla (can't remember) So I pressed the start download again and then all went smooth.


great work guys and a big thanks

I appreciate the work you did on this

I think it should get stickied (or the first post anyway).

One thing i would say.......amd i know your not writing about this bit

On Windows 7 64-bit i havent got the "phone" part to work yet, but this tutorial you gave to flash the pda rom does work.

Same on Win 7 32-bit. However, if you were going to flash your phone part on Win7 32-bit it does work.

The way i got it to work was:

Follow all your steps to flash the ROM (but include the phone part).
When it has finished flashing the rom , it will switch the device to phone/modem mode.
It then gave me a lot of failed to find open com etc message in grand prix and windows said "The driver then failed to install successfully" (or similar)
I went back and followed all the instructions again (with a phone part).
And the 2nd time around it worked and flashed the phone part also.

I repeat i have not been able to get this 2nd part to work in Win7 64bit though (i suspect its to do with not loading unsigned drivers - which can be got around before Windows loads with i think F8 and one of those options.)

Again good tutorial tho i also use OCK rom's currently.

I have said in the video that you shouldn't flash the phone part, it's unnecessary anyways didn't know it worked on win 7 though, but I won't include this, since this increases the chance of bricking your phone. Thanks for telling though

nice tutorial, wish i've seen it earlier. i flashed the phone part and i can't get it to work again. i've tried flashing it several times but the phone part never gets done

You're welcome!
Try flashing without selecting a phone part, that sould fix it. If it doesn't, you'll need acces to a XP machine, or use the VM-ware  method, of which I don't know how to use it . It's stickied I believe.. good luck!

I'm not responsible for your actions and bla bla bla
The omnia is freaking hard to brick if you follow this tutorial though, and if something goes wrong, follow it again and your phone should work again. If it doesn't, try on another computer.

Before you start, you must have at least once synced your phone!!

I made this video. Sorry that it's sped up. Just pause to read the annotations and ask if any questions come to your mind. Because a picture says a thousand words. And a video has a thousand pictures   

I start off with a rom file, they can be found on this forum. The one I'm currently using is made by Ock, Build 25001, M2D version. Found here.

1: Open up your phone, "call" to  *7465625*638*#

3. Type in the new NCK (12345678), and press OK
4. "call" *#7465625# to check the simlock status
5. "call" #7465625*638*# and type your NCK in (12345678)

Once that's done, you can proceed :D

i910 owners, read this first:
If your phone has a rom named CF03, continue the tutorial, if you don't know, here's how you can find out!
Start-Settings-System-Version. Look at ROM Version, if it says "S:i910.10 V.CF03 then you have the CF03 Rom and are able to continue with my tutorial. If it says something else, you'll first have to flash the CF03 rom. Don't worry, I'll explain how;)
1: Plug your Omnia in with it's turned on. Windows will automatically download and install the drivers for you.
2: When this is done, unlpug your phone.
3: Download the VZW update software here: http://sharebee.com/bd345218 (just choose a link and download)
4: Run the file and follow it step by step.
*: Only plug in your phone when prompted to in the update process!

My support for i910 devices is limited, since I own a i900 omnia, but I'll do my best;)

Read this after watching:

All right, the first tool is omnia EXEcutor, by pako777 Download it from: EXEcutor 2.7
The second tool is GrandPrix
Vista and 7 users, download the and open the attachtment. [Open as administrator!]
"USDL_GrandPrix_v1.6.4_VISTA.exe"
XP Users, use the XP version instead. It looks kinda different, but the buttons are the same, you should get it
"UMDL_GrandPrix_v1.8.10_XP.exe"
This is my first topic on modaco ever, if I'm violating the rules, please tell me, I didn't mean to
Big thanks to pako777, the creators of GrandPrix, all cooks, people that wrote my sources, people that suggested things to add, and people who corrected my mistake!
Without your help it wouldn't have been possible.
I like to cook myself too, but only in real life I kinda messed up on my attempt and I'm not wanting to bother anyone with my problem, I'm just a noob at cooking but if I ever will find out how to, I'll surely post another video!  
Update 02/02/10:
-Replaced included zipped grand prix for unzipped one, same version (1.6.4).
-Added section for sim-locked device users.
-Quick video clean up, corrected pauses. You shouldn't have to click the pause button anymore.
-Added i910 support. i910 owners, please confirm wether this works or not.
Update 03/02/10:
-Added XP section. I beleive that my thread is now universal, it supports every windows OS (from XP on) and both i900 and i910 models.
-I'll film a big video tomorrow, showing the flashing progress step by step from a Windows XP laptop and Windows 7 netbook. I'll first reflash Ock's rom, then the dutch rom by Bruno Adler. Both differ a little bit.

Which version of windows 7 are you using?
Have you vlited it? If you don't know what it is, you didn't vliting is basically removing components before installing, if you have did this you might have removed a component required for GrandPrix.
What happens when you try to open GrandPrix? Does a error message show up or just nothing? Have you ran it as administrator?

1 Version of win7?
2 Vlited or not?
3 Any errors?
4 Run as admin or not?

Hi. So far the instructions have been great but I'm stuck on the part where you turn the phone on once connected to GrandPrix. Instead of flashing the rom it says:

OnDeviceChange: DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL
PDA Device not found

I've gone through all the instructions to the letter and not had any problems up to that point. I've even done it 4 times (with a reboot of phone AND pc in between) but no joy. Do you think it could be the rom?

I have this issue on one laptop as well, but that was because I removed a component that was required.. anyways, do you use vista? since I haven't tested on vista..

Nope, Windows 7 (64bit, just a week out of the box). What was the component?

I've also tried this on my other Windows 7 (32 bit) machine and it tries to connect, states that the USDL has stopped working then bombs out. I must be really unlucky.

Have you vlited your windows build? If you don't know what that means you haven't. Because if you did that might be the issue.
