Hepl w/ Updating to CF03

[Guest khrmax]

Hi,

Firstly, I am working on a Vista x64 trying to update a SCH-i910 Verizon Omnia.

I hastily flashed my SCH-i910 with a third-party, cooked CF03 ROM before flashing the original, stock CF03. Now my Omnia will not boot up (it is still responsive, I do not believe it is "bricked"). I cannot find CF03.img to flash my Omnia with. There are two links on the web that HAD it, but alas the links are no longer working.

I couldn't edit my post but I would like to add that updating via the "User Upgrade Tool" did not work for me ("WMDC not installed" error, when it is and works) and I am running Vista x64.

So basically, can I save my phone? I'm hoping that if I flash it (via UMDL_Omnia) with the base CF03 image that I'll be able to recover it. As of right now, it hangs when booting up at the "Samsung Omnia" screen with the progress bar.

Here are the instruction I am referring to, along with the bad links: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=1...;postcount=5124

Because the install tool doesn't work on my OS (vista x64) I think I need to use this method to update. As I said unfortunately both mirrors for the Official CF03 image are not working (one "Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)" & one with 3 parts that do not function properly).

Please, can someone re-host the official CF03 image?

Any and all help (and quick replies) are GREATLY appreciated.

Firstly, thanks your quick responses. It sucks not having a phone and so of coarse I want to fix this ASAP.

I am downloading the CC20 image right now to try to get my phone working on that firmware (at least) again.

blazingwolf, unfortunately that is the web site (http://cid-81c4902007472ed3.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/CF03) that has the CF03 image file in three parts. When I download the files to my desktop, and then try to open any one of them with 7Zip/WinRAR, I get an error about the structure of the file (broken, damaged). That is why I was asking for a new hosted CF03 file; because I could not find a working link anywhere.

I just downloaded it myself and it works just fine. Are you using a download manager?

[Guest khrmax]

Nope, using Firefox with No Addons.

But!

By using a combination of the replies from PPC and MoDaCo, I have successfully flashed to CF03! Thanks for all your help. In case anyone else has similar problems here is everything you need condensed:

Download the official CF03 image file:

Hey thank you for uploading the original verizon CF03 rom, I ran into a problem similar to yours running windows 7 which wouldn't allow me to use the VZW update software, so thank you again for uploading that!!
