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.

that probally means that it didn't find the drivers for the omnia in flashing-mode. What happens when you try flashing your omnia without selecting a eboot file? and are you using vista or 7?

Install the vista modem driver if you can find the right one (works on 7 32-bit also). If your on 64-bit...it may work if you do an F8 and stop the driver signing on boot.

Once done, plug in omnia, let windows mobile device center find it.

Then follow the normal steps to untick the device so windows mobile device center does not launch.
Use the grandprix tool to flash a rom as described in this thread but also include the phone part you want to flash.
It will fail when it switches to radio usually and will then act like it is installing a driver, it may even say it fails....let it.
Then remove the omnia, plug it back in.
Try the grand prix again (i think i may have rebooted after the failed driver install) with the phone part.
It worked the next time around.

There is probably a cleaner way, but this seems to work for me on multiple pc's.

This might work, but I think it's innescesarry to flash phone parts, this process isn't really noob-friendly and isn't required for getting WM6.5 on your omnia, so I won't include it. Thanks for the advice though, I would've answered that it's impossible to flash on 7/vista

@leap_ahead

how did you flash it? because i cant flash mine here... it always say PDA Device not found.. can you help me?

[LiveDuo]

VERY IMPORTANT

TIP:
WE SHOULD RUN "USDL Grandprix AS" ADMINISTRATOR

[TekkenOmnia]

@LiveDuo

i Did that already but nothing happens still "PDA DEVICE NOT FOUND"

[mikevhl]

it might be that you DO need to install drivers on vista, can you please report wether you use windows vista or 7?

Thanks for the great tutorial man

in the last part you said :
"  it will say "tap the screen to setup your device" on your omnia, do this. But instead of going on, wait ~3 minutes for your phone to restart by itself and present you the screen with "tap the screen to setup your device" again. this time continue the device setup and you're done. "

when " tap the screen to setup your device" appeared i pressed on the screen and waited as you said , 5 and 10 minutes but the phone didn't restarted !!
so what ?
i completed the setup and i didn't make this step , any thing bad could happen or something wrong ??

[devil_bur]

You should really slow down the video even more.  Is the EXEcutor 2.7 program required? i have an i910 and  i use winrar to extract my .bin file. is that all that EXEcutor is doing?

Yes, I didn't know that that was possible on winrar as well and the program is EXEcutor indeed

No that's fine, it's just that if you get a sms and the phone reboots very shortly after that, the sms gets lost. You won't have any problems at all
