Hey man!

What did you do to fix it.

I tried flashing twice, phone sitting at Ultra Messaging screen, does not go past that........
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ysot:
I downloaded the files which were in the post #423 and extracted them. Ran the Image downloader and pointed EBOOT and PHONE to the two files in the RAR. Point PDA to where you have downloaded the Lastest ROM

The first time i did this it didn't work and was getting the same error message as yourself. Did it a second time but this time i clicked on "phone Initialization (EFS Clear) and Phone Bootloader Update which is under the Phone button in the downloader program.

Look back through the post and make sure you have downloaded the Samsung Cpomposite drivers( that is how the file name is spelt) and install that. See how you go.

Hope this makes sence!

- Cant view picture files, they appear as thumbnails, but do not open.

- Compatibility for allot of games / applications which won't install cause they are meant for WM6

- No bluetooth settings

If many people are struggling to get the firmware update right I will create a full install pack with steps, and upload it to my file host, just let me know if it is needed.

Atrum-Amicus - that would be bloody brilliant if you could do that...
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] AndrewSpec:
Listen everybody. If you can't open any image file, thats not a ROM bug. It's a problem with assosiations - there's no application assosiated to view that kind of files. But it you try to view them from MyStuff, it works. My suggestion is to install manually another viewer such as Resco Photo Viewer.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] tmhwk:
There is the easier way - try this http://rapidshare.com/files/210260607/SDA_ApplicationUnlock.rar

Synchronize via AS, and run SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe and press "Remove Lock" then all apps should innstall properly

Where is the option to configure the right button shortcut (the button under the wheel) ? because it's useful for activate fake cursor for tomtom
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] MrRimmer:
VOIP

Looks like VOIP support has been completely removed, even after installing WM6VOIP.cab and adding the provisioning xml.

NO radio

Guys!

Eventually got this to work now...

The phone boots up.

But there is no radio??

What to do? I had WM 6.0 (Stock ROM) and followed the instructions, GIVEN WITH THE EXTRA 2 FILES ETC.....

Help??
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Atrum-Amicus:
You need to upload all three, but in the PDA field u add the rom released by nokser.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Hi...

I did that.....

The first time, it gave some connection error, when it got to the phone portion.

I rebooted the phone, and tried again.

It went trough.

And completed.

Now, the device goes on, boots everything, works......but no radio?

Any other toughts?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Atrum-Amicus:
Yes, it will give you a phone error if your active sync was running during the time it was going to do the pnone portion. Start task manager in windows and end the task wcescom.exe under processes, before you start flashing.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Okay

I just tried to reflash it, with all the instructions as is...........

No radio.

Sheesh guys, i need your help here :D
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Atrum-Amicus:
It says that it is not a valid windows CE application, and fails, when I run this app.

Edit: nevermind
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Atrum-Amicus:
Rac go download this: http://www.savefile.com/files/2044440

extract files into a folder, copy the pda rom into the folder, run the updater (ensure active sync is killed), select the files as per the instructions.txt, check phone initialization, and phone bootloader update, finally click start download.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Hey man!

Ive tried it.......still no radio! Thanks for trying to help.

Any other suggestions?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] tmhwk:
WM boot, and work? What exactly shows rom about "no radio", in wireless manager there is phone options on? Try remove sim card and run room, any changes??
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Yeah man WM boot and work. The phone is on, the icon that shows signal strenght, there is only a dot. When i try to phone, doesnt work.

I tried removing and re entering SIM.....no luck?

Maybe i should try a different sim. Thanks for the help guys!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] tmhwk:
What exactly happened when you "try to phone"?

Sms send/recv work?

Signal icon changes when you moving?

What version(code name) WM you use befor?

Try

1. *#1546792*# and change Network Order to GSM first and Network Mode to GSM

or

2. hard reset

or

3. Change to another operator sim card

or

4. remove simlock
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Hi there

Here is my screenshots....not sure what this means.....

This SIM works in my VOX, but not on the samsung.....

Tried to change network order.....

Maybe the device is SIMLOCKED?

Any thoughts?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] tmhwk:
In wireless manager select menu>phone settings>7.more>1.networks>menu>select a network .. what happened, any networks available?

Try change network order to another

Use my phone radio file!!

Device had simlok before?

Do you remember your before version of rom?

Do the hard reset!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Its strange, when i go to phone>more>networks>menu it says current network : No service. When i search for a network it find one, but then says cannot save settings. Verify you have coverageand that the setting is supported.

Device did not have simlock

My previous ROM was Stock WM6.0 worked with this sim

How to hard reset?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] tmhwk:
remove your memory card

1. Start -> Settings -> Security -> Reset (default code 0000)

2. on power up, hold down the 6 and # keys at the same time

2. "0 + 4 + UP + Power" ,when ask press reset, than pres 1 and later Y.

3. hold "OK + Power"

...
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] MikeDetz:
hey ^^rac,

you just bricked your phone. There is no possibility to recover "phone" section with USB cable! PC cannot recognize i600 modem because its' data was in "phone section", so you cannot flash it anymore. Only E-boot or PDA section you can flash with standard soft (after failed "phone" part).

Many people bricked their i600 because they flashed "phone part" from i607!

http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=257857

http://www.modaco.com/content/i60x-i60x-modaco-com/255532/ok-after-two-days-i-have-a-brick-i600-wm6/

until know there is no solution , maybe direct ROM flashing with service cable could help - Ust Pro II or other service device. I will know tommorrow, i'll let you know. Greets, mike
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] bigsro:
Sorry guys these posts have confused me...I was going to do this but am not sure which method to try to flash my phone...I have a UK i600 with Orange. I upgraded to WM6 using a modded WM6 Rom from Modaco that allowed it to run on Orange branded i600s. The phone, PDA and eboot version are all i600UXXGG2...

Can someone type up a 'how to' for me as Im feeling like a dumbass!!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] tmhwk:
Are you sure? If pc cannot recognize i600 as modem you shouldn't can flash boot and pda section, and get :

[PDA-0]Driver Opened.

[PDA]Read Wait. = [0]

[PDA]Read Done. = [0]

[PDA]Device Found. = [0]

in

WCEDownloader_v1[1].1Single.exe

My files xxgg2_boot.nb0 and xxgg2_phone_rom.bin are extracted from official samsung i600UXXupdater.exe

You can bricked your device flashed phone part and boot,rom part too...

I didn't try flash "phone part" from i607 but if it smaller size than phone part from i600 and WCEDownloader works you should try repair device with i600 phone part

If you don't have radio problems don't use this files!!

extracted rom, phone, boot files from official i600UXXupdater.exe with instructions :

http://rapidshare.com/files/210493718/i600XXGG2_BOOT_PDA_ROM_FIRMWARE-zip.rar

http://rapidshare.com/files/210491641/i600XXGG2_BOOT_FIRMWARE-zip.rar

I don't have any more ideas for now
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] MikeDetz:
I600 is recognized as "MITS SGH-i600 USB RNDIS" device for flashing EBOOT and PDA part - this can be flashed without problems. But when it finishes [PDA] section and goes to [PHONE] new USB device is detected in system which is "not recognized USB device" and cannot have any drivers installed. (exactly like this -> http://www.fourwalledcubicle.com/img/Blog/USBError.jpg )

So i suppose the "modem part" in i600's flash memory is broken , so PC cannot open COM ports to correctly flash this part ...

I'm seeking direct flasher to avoid 'modem connection' for this part

tmhwk -> thx for the zip, I have the files from "i600_xxgg2_pl_mod" which has separate files xxgg2_boot.nb0, xxgg2_pda.bin and xxgg2_phone_rom.bin

but very useful information is start/end HEX address (if direct flashing is possible)
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] tmhwk:
My system recognized as "MITS SGH-i600 USB SYNC" maybe it doesn't matter, but are you sure that you have "Samsung composite drivers" installed?

I suppose the radio part is broken or boot loader or image downloader can't properly address phone part, but ^^rac successfully loaded all three parts
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] MikeDetz:
yes, tried all of modem drivers on 3-4 other PC's..

but even in i600 Menu -> Settings -> Connections -> USB after choosing "Modem" there is error "phone is in flight mode" (probably because of missing "phone part") and cannot establish connection with PC ports.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Hey guys!

Thanks for all your help.

I followes the first instruction in this files.....

The phone has WM 5 on again, like when i got it. But still no signal. I tried 2 different sims aswell.

I will follow the other 2 sets of instructions when i get home tonight. But *sigh..... i think i bricked the phone.....

Damn
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Thanks Mike.....

Hope you can help.

Will a Samsung Repair centre be able to recover the device? (If nessecary?)

Thanks gents
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Okay

Seeing that the phone is now back to Stock WM5 (Like when i got it)

Do you guys think i must try and flash the Original WM 6 ROM (Stock one from Samsung)

I wonder if that will work?

I still have it on my PC. I think ill give it a shot tonight..........
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Atrum-Amicus:
Sorry to hear about that happening, that really sucks! I hope you come right in finding a fix for this, just be persistent and get some of the pro's helping you.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] daxy:
First of all a big round of applause to Nokser who managed to port WM6.1 to the i600!!!

Several tried, only 1 made it completely working! :D

Overall I believe the ROM works fine, it's stable, fast and feels good. There are a view small bugs/things I noticed which I would like to mention:

Sounds: The default notifications for mail/sms are .wav files which is not supported. A manual change is needed (Settings -> Sounds -> Other Sounds).

Bluetooth Settings: "Settings -> Connections -> Bluetooth" doesn't work. Workaround: Go to the Wireless Manager, hit menu and then 3 for the Bluetooth does work.

Messaging: Go to your Outlook E-mail, then go to SMS and back to Outlook. You can't select folders anymore (menu, then 6). It's changed from Folders to "Select Messages". Workaround: Hold the home button for 3 seconds, then stop the Messaging process. Start Messaging again and it works again.

The Task Manager: minor thing. Some icons (like Calculator and Internet Explorer) are missing

The Calculator: The buttons mentioned (up, down, left, right) can't be used. Also when you press / on the keyboard, a * will appear. When you press %, a / will appear.

Microsoft Office: I know, it's great and many people want it, but for my office phone I would like to have the option to have it removed (manual remove by the user in case you don't want office would be sufficient). Just to keep things legal for the company :)

I know some of them are really minor things, and so far am I more than happy with this release. I just wanted to post these things in case someone wishes to address these little things to make it perfect.

Again, great work Nokser!!!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Nokser:
ThX All to tested my ROM;)
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] swaycz:
Yes, thanks to nokser for making this possible - the WM6.1 is really good. To me it seems, that the feature difference between 6 and 6.1 is bigger than between 5 and 6.

Anyway, nokser, are you planning to re-release the ROM once tested? I mean, are you planning to fix those bugs mentioned above? I know some of them are really just minor issues, but still, sometimes it is kinda uncomfortable to bother with them. Thanks!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] bigsro:
So can someone please type up a quick 'how to' guide for upgrading? Pretty please?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] phonexpert_alex:
try flashing the wm6XXGG2 stock rom. i work at a GSM repair centre and with all the dedicated flashing tools there isn't a single one that can flash i600 on its own. Every tool uses the same process as the original loader does. I have a i607 that a custome brought and it has poor signal and sometimes it just disconnects from the network. I think there is no solution yet for poor signal in samsung phones.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
I there..... Im going to try that.

I have the stock WM6 ROM that i dloaded from the Samsung website, with the modem drivers.

Last night, when i tried it, the device still had WM6.1 on. It then said that its not the correct version.

I have flashed it to the Stock WM5 rom, and its booting again, but still the radio does not work. Hopefully by flashing the WM 6 ROM, it will sort out my problem......

*sigh.

Thanks for the help.....ill let you know later, if i succeeded!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ^^rac:
Heheheh, i tried it, did not work!

Strange, the phone had signal for a minute, i got excited, and then dropped back to no radio.

Ill give it in at a repair centre, hopefully they can recover it.

I've downgraded to wm6.0 as it seems that there are just too many bugs to be sorted out. Anyway great job nokser! You've really done a great job. I know that you've released it too early but it's just unbelievable what you did. Still waiting for an update. Cheers

Hi Chief,

Care to share your WM6 rom for i600? It's been a month looking that one but nowhere to find :( The download section for the promotion is valid only last October 2008. Please, mr.please?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] daxy:
You can find the official WM5 and WM6 info on http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/Samsung_i600
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] MrRimmer:
Another bug... I can't get Internet sharing to work - the connect button is always greyed out. This is a show-stopper for me so it looks like I'm going to be flashing back to 6.0 until this one is fixed. Apart from that and VOIP, excellent work. The phone is so much faster, it's like someone took the handbrake off!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ysot:
I downloaded this and gave it a shot but I get an error saying that

Incorrect software version.

I have just updated to Nokser ROM
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Battlestar:
Hi Chief,

I've been there @ the link you gave, but the link for WM6 European version is already dead on rapidshare :(

EDIT: Could be the I600UXXUpdater.exe is the same as the I600UXXGG2 firmware?

I have all necessary files to upgrade to WM6 except for the WM6-Firmware I600UXXGG2 No brand :(

Fixed: cannot use ICS

Found this link:

http://www.howardforums.com/archive/topic/1430417-1.html

the problem is that there is a registry key HKLM->Comm->InternetSharing->Settings->ForceCellConnectiion that is set to use AT&T, which of course it not relevant to the i600. Simply use a registry editor to blank the contents of this key and reboot.

So now I can keep WM6.1...
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] MrRimmer:
One other feature: how do we change the screen brightness? can't see any options in settings to do that.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] AndrewSpec:
Settings -> Power Management -> Display brightness
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] MrRimmer:
D'oh! Thanks!

having problems with ICS... thought I had it working but it looks like DHCP isn't working, so my laptop gets a 169.254... address.

Update: Played around with registry and managed to get DHCP working. Can't remember exactly which one, but I believe it may have been to set EnableDHCP = 0 somewhere!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] eriks79:
Thx xo much nokser for this rom u cooked in just one month.I'm very happy with it and won't downgrade to wm6.A very great thing with your rom is I can now run route66 without keypad problems.For those who might be interested, i installed route66 8.0.5765 with pan europe 2,19Gb and tomtom navigator 7.910.9185.rar( the .ca won't install) with western europe 8.15.2024, and both on the same 4gb micro sdhc card, and they both run flawlessly.

Very great job you did!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] moonlight_ua:

Thanks from Ukraine! :) I`m very happy, that I have WM6.1, and won`t return to WM6. Problem with keypad backlight I solved through the registry, and the rest is wonderful! Thank you once more!

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] emy_77:
Other than the disappearing-message-folders bug (which for the time being, I can live with), I haven't encountered any other bug. It's incredibly good, almost like an official release :D
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] MrRimmer:
Yup, apart from a few registry tweaks and sorting out the missing icons/sound files/VOIP client it seems to run well.
