Omnia II 6.1 to 6.5 update

[Guest merdock]

Hello Forum,

Just bought a new Omnia II i8000 which is GSM. I bought it in Saudi Arabia. When I set up the Omnia for the first time I set my country at UK, since I thought it would help me to update it to 6.5. The Samsung New PC Studio (NPS) to update my phone to 6.5 is not available. I tried downloading one from the UK website and Singapore website but they won't work for my phone. I think I will never buy another Samsung phone again in the future if they play these tricks with the customers. I should be able to update my phone no matter where I live in the world. The box my phone came in says that the phone is updateable to 6.5. :D

My phone details are :

PDA : I8000JVIJ1

CSC: I8000ARBIK1

PHONE : I8000XXIJ1

Can someone please guide me on how to change these settings so that I will be able to update using the UK or Singapore NPS. I dont want a custom made ROM, but the official ROM from Samsung with TouchWiz. I only require English language support. Also a way to revert back to the original 6.1 ROM incase I have to send my phone back to Samsung Service Center. I have spent a lot of time looking around on this forum but no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hello everyone,

I got my phone updated to WM 6.5 from the Vendor Service Center. They told me that it is the original Samsung ROM which Samsung provided them. Unfortunately it did not come with Touchwiz.

I wanted to know if anyone who has updated their phone to WM 6.5 using Samsung's software (NPS) got Touchwiz installed or not. Thank you.
