i908 can't upgrade to i900 custom roms

[Guest MrWL]

I have a i908 omnia phone from hong kong and recently flashed the phone to english by flashing with i900ZHHH2 then DXHH1, i was also able to update the phone to i900PUJA1 . Now comes the problem, I can't flash the clean offical rom DXIA5 or any custom 6.1 or 6.5 roms from ryrzy or any other chefs.

I took every precaution into flashing my phone. making sure the firewall is down, disable antivirus, etc.

I have tried updating through windows 7 without success but i was able to update the phone.bin so i know i am not doing anything wrong

I have used windows xp with vmware and successfully flash my phone to english as mentioned above but never able to flash any custom roms.

I have tried many different roms and methods but was unsuccessful. The same problem always happens, it detects the phone, i press start download then it loads as normal then it just freezes at eboot image downloading at 0%. I don't know whats going on and why its not downloading. Has anyone have a solution or face this kind of problem?

this is the message from the log.

Device name:

EBoot version=00.ZH

Start downloading...

I have used grandprix on xp version and vista version...no luck....i know i'm doing it right because i was able to flash my phone.bin.

I have read through many forums and topics about flashing the i900 and have found less then a handful of people who had a similar problem.

i908 set to singapore to get rid of the "incorrect version software"

flash to i900 english roms as mention in my first post

have tried flashing custom roms in xp and in windows 7

in xp i tried with just using the .exe and flashing with grandprix...no luck

in vista, i tried flashingw ith grandprix...no luck

as mention i know i am doing it right because i was successful in flashing i900PUJA1 (phone.bin)

I am in a total lost...i have tried every method i have read about and it has been frustrating unable to flash custom roms.

Thanks for the replys.

does anyone know whats wrong?!?ahhhh

I believe i have given up trying to flash to custom roms. Is there a way to manually customize the phone? like different theme other then from the original wm6.1 os, games, keypad and so on... any input would be great thanks.
