Guest meabigbaldguy Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 I don't want to be an ass----, but there's probably no one who's going to write to you how to to a step by step flash because there's an entire topic on how to do this already. Like everyone else who's already flashed an omnia once or twice, you'll have to study up on the subject. That said, I'll help you out with this link... http://www.modaco.com/content/i900-general...00-omnia-phone/ I will also tell you, that flashing with Vista isn't so straight forward so if you can use an XP system, it's much easier to do so. You can also go to the official Samsung Omnia site and look at flashing instructions for Vista there. samsungmobile.com. You will also want to use the search tool on this forum because other people have also posted about dismounted storage and you might find some help there also. Happy hunting, friend! :)
Guest kav Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 post is a bit long and there is a lot of info there, for everyone but what concerns u is this: (Thanks to Sector for posting this, and if I may quote: ) Steps used for updating under VMWare for Windows Vista (32bit & 64bit) / Windows 7 (32bit & 64bit). The tutorial is taken from my friend shokka9. Thank you baw$ If you don't know what VMware is, take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMware for more information. Things you'll need on Vista: VMware Workstation (latest will work) Microsoft Windows XP CD or .ISO image and the serial key 2gb of free disk space Safety Tips before starting: Use the ones that mentioned for Windows XP. Make sure you turn off the USB on the Windows Mobile Device Center. How-to disable it. Go to Windows Mobile Device Center: Mobile Settings -> Connection Settings -> Untick "Allow USB Connections". After flashing tick it back. Let's start: First install VMware's Workstation. You can get a trial version at http://www.vmware.com/ If you have an .ISO image of your Windows XP CD on your hard disk like I do, you won't need the CD, otherwise you'll need it. If you don't have the image, put the CD into your CD/DVD-ROM. Run the workstation. Go to FILE -> NEW -> VIRTUAL MACHINE and choose TYPICAL. On the next tab select the source from where you want to install a virtual Windows XP operating system (CD or image). On the next tab, press next. When the dialog appears, choose YES. Now enter a name for your virtual XP machine and choose a location where you want to save the machine - it's good to have at least 2gb of free space! On the nex tab, I've chosen 2.5gb. I think that's enough, if you wish only to flash your ROM. You can choose to install the machine to a single file or splitted. I've chosen single. On the next tab, click Customize Hardware button and select "USB Controller". Make sure High-Speed USB 2.0 and Auto connect USB devices are checked. Press OK, then press FINISH. Maybe you'll get a warning from VMware but don't bother, just skip it. The Windows installation process should follow. The installation took on my PC for about 25min. When the setup has finished, you can normally run and use Windows XP via WMware. Update your XP machine via Windows Update, reboot and start flashing. Flashing: 1. Install Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 (once) 2. Install the Samsung Modem Driver XP (once) 3. Reboot the PC. 4. After the first 2 steps try to disconnect your Omnia from USB and connect it back on. Repeat it 1-2 times so the PC can recognize the phone. 5. Leave the phone connected for about 10-15 minutes. If it disconnects by itself most probably you have to repeat the procedure from 1st step. 6. It is advised to reboot your PC also. 7. Make sure that have backup all your important stuff (contacts, pictures etc). 8. Switch OFF the phone by holding the Power button for ~5 seconds. 9. Run the updater. (Works the same way for Original or Cooked ROMs) 10.Switch ON the phone again by holding the Power button. 11.Press START and happy flashing. Do not move your phone or the USB wire as it might fail during flashing. 12.Wait until the updater shows JOB DONE! DO NOT DISCONNECT BEFORE. 13.Disconnect your phone. Leave the phone to reboot 2 times, calibrate screen and finish the start-up procedure. Enjoy the new firmware.

That was uncalled for! Even if just a joke, it's still in piss poor taste. Remember the time when someone had to spoonfeed you? Someone also had to change your diapers too. Nobody wants to "change your diaper" now. Edited October 23, 2009 by meabigbaldguy
Guest kav Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 totally agree with meabigbaldguy. we all started like this, didnt know what or how things work, but we learned. no one was born an expert on the omnia here. just because he is asking for help u guys are making jokes because u know 2 cents more than him? that was extremely childish of some people here.
Guest necosino Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Just to clarify. My prior post was calling Andy a jack@$$, not the OP. :)
