Guest jebise Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 So I can basically flash any custom Roms? ;) Thanks man for the quick info. I am not new to Octans flashing so it's all good I know how to do that. I was just asking if there's any extra steps/precautions about Bell Omnia II's compatibility to all the custom Roms out there. So I can flash the New JD1 Rom too if I understand you correctly ;) yeah no sweat just flash away. You may want to backup the bell ROM just in case you need to send for servicing or something similar. There are floating around on this site but why not just dump your own to know you have the right one. Search for 2 exe dsk_dump 2.0 (sorg) run it from your storage you will see it creates a bin file on your storage. Then search for o2util on your PC just drag the bin file on top of o2util.exe and wait. You should see a nb0 file which is the flashable whenever you wanna go stock.

Guest willis111 Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 (edited) I got my csc with the csc dump tool in http://www.modaco.com/content/i8000-omnia-...ld-application/ ... the attachments mislabeled I think, I think it's actually supposed to be i8000lbmcij6. It's just the original csc that came on my bell phone.Belli8000lugij6.rar Edited April 16, 2010 by willis111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest willis111 Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 notice any diff? i wanna try this too lol It's hard to tell, the gps locks seem to be a lot quicker after upgrading the radio. I basically upgraded every part like that and was getting 2+ minute cold start locks when firing up igo/garmin. Now with the new radio I haven't had a lot in more than 30 seconds.

Guest nuelo Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 I have successfully flashed my Bell Canada Omnia II. I only found the need to flash the PHONE portion. No need to unlock. Just read the instructions on the sticky threads. Of course, WM 6.5.x is much better than what Bell ships. Grabbed a backup Bell original NB0 file from someone (just in case) and flashed away. Made some reg mods for Tomtom to pick up a sat faster. Otherwise, everything is sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mikroft Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 JD1 has updated GPS drivers which makes GPS fixes faster. I just installed the JD1 GPS driver from another thread and my GPS is way better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest redzone321 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 thsi has nothgin to do with the phone part though. i also get a faster lock with JD1 but only ebo and nbo flashed JD1 has updated GPS drivers which makes GPS fixes faster. I just installed the JD1 GPS driver from another thread and my GPS is way better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Uss_Defiant Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 I have also flashed with phone and seem to get far better reception on bell (phone occasionally cut out in basement... now sound is quite strong and no cut out's so far) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nipip Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 I failed to download an I8000L IJ3 rom using the quattro samsung downloader tool (just don't work). This one has the last known phone part for backup. If I could get this I would try with new I8000 parts with confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No hay para Argentina pero si figuran varias para i8000L, incluso indica algunas JA1 marcadas como i8000 por lo que da para pensar que las phones si son compatibles. Lamentablemente me echa flit para intentar bajar cualquier cosa. ---- Hi, I tried samsung rom downloader posted here. There's nothing for Argentina but there are several generic i8000L, even JA1 versions noted for i8000. I guess phone parts are compatibles after all. Sadly app gives nothing but flit for me. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mikroft Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 (edited) Just flashed everything from JD1 onto my phone. So far so good. Using twu2's JD3 Lite ROM. Everything is so fast. Have yet to try GPS. Edited April 27, 2010 by Mikroft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eric2k Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 (edited) If I am on bell, PDA =(BELL original can be backed up) PHONE =NO BACKUP CSC =(BELL original can be backed up) EBOOT =NO BACKUP Why would you flash your Phone/CSC portion if your on Bell, what type of benefit is there if any? Also same thing for Eboot why bother? Edited May 11, 2010 by eric2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also same thing for Eboot why bother? people say it gives better performance i have yet to flash anything except PDA and have had no issues with anything.The recommended time to flash eboot is going from winmo 6.1 to 6.5 and that's the only time, the newer eboots have a lower pagepool limit of 15MB while the old had 20MB but that can be forced from winmo and most lite ROM have 8MB anyways. I guess the main reason why i would ever flash all parts on my phone is to get official updates from samsung using pc studio since it will make the i8000L into a i8000 and that is what gets all the updates we see here. CSC i really don't see a point in flashing that since it only language stuff and if you use english/french you don't need anything else. People also say flashing the PHONE part helps with GPS i rarely have a issue unless i'm in Toronto oddly enough i can't get a satellite fix there maybe coz of all the buildings, but works fine in other cities.

Also same thing for Eboot why bother? I am on Bell Mobility in Canada, and I just lost my 16GB internal "My Storage". I have tried all the possible fixes (including nueRom`s Storage Manager), yet it will not appear even as an unmounted drive or anything. I bought the phone used, so warranty does not apply in my case. I have re-loaded the PDA and CSC portion, with no success. When the PHONE and or EBOOT section become available for this phone I will put them in. I cannot see this as being a totally hardware issue, and would like to try all possible avenues befor paying to get this fixed by Bell or Samsung. I REALLY APPRECIATE all the hard work and great effort from this community that has gone into improving the software on this phone. I have since upgraded to a Sense PDA, and noticed such an improvement in Main Storage free ram, I am now able to have all the programs in that space without the need for `My Storage` any more (but it would really be nice, since that was a selling feature on this phone) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PoFF Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) Well, I am pleased to report that I've successfully flashed the phone part to JF1 on a Bell O2. GPS lockup is definately faster, and 3G also seems faster, but it might be due to the fact that I've switched from Opera 10 to Opera Mini 5. Didn't change anything on the quality of the reception though, still losing the signal in my basement... :( Quick note : Also flashed to JF5 EBoot & PDA, but I've left the CSC to stock Bell (I8000LBMIJ6). Everything seems good so far. Edited July 27, 2010 by PoFF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
