Hi to all.

I hope to have your help posting here.

I have my I900 since March 2009 and my gps is ok until I take my device in assistance for a screen changing.

After this episode I have some problems with my gps.

I installed Igo, I downloaded Xtra, but satellites were reds and didn't become yellow or green.

Igo finds internal gps without problems and it connects with it without problems, but I can't fix.

"Gps test" finds Gps and I can read on it "Gps starting up" andsometimes "Gps running"

What I can do to discover the real problem?

What do you think about ?

Thanks for you support

P.S. I tried to make a search in the forum, but there wasn't nothing for my problem.

your phone is software bricked not a hardware problem

find a way-search on internet- to put it in "download mode"

in this mode you can rewrite firmware I know that it's not easy

I did this on a linksys router

by example see this to understand what I'm talking about

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mi8D7a_PKA&feature=related

also share all things to get response by example tell me if you put there Samsung CDMA drivers this is very important to know!

also try a hard reset power+call+end call what happens there?

man what is happening here ? no problems with WM phones?:(

so let us write cocked ROMs:D
[Off-topic] BorisMKD:
So, I'm gonna paste the question I asked in the wrong thread and they redirect me here, hoping that someone could clear this to me, so here's the original question:

"So, just to understand better about WinMo ROM's ... When they say:

"Windows Mobile 6.5 (or 6.5.3) ROM, and lets say QVGA (WQVGA) resolution, this means that it is valid for all kind of phones with QVGA/WQVGA resolutions (if certain phone models are not mentioned), right?

Or let me put it this way: you have 2 models with the same WQVGA (i think thats for 240x400), on one side you have for example HTC and from the other side you have Samsung (doesn't matter what models are), both running on Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro and you have now a new Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM supporting WQVGA screen. Is that ROM gonna be valid for both of the phones or there is ROMs for HTC and ROMs for Samsung or other models?

I'm asking this cuz I want to clear this things in my head so to know what and how to do certain things in the future regarding instalations of ROM, Themes, Skins etc."

As you know, I'm not a computer novice, I have pretty big knowledge about computers, especially in software department, but never in mobile software and I am that kind of a person who need to understand everything about something I wanna do it for the first time, like here with mobile softwares. 4 Days ago I did a first flashing of a cooked rom (K1's Windows Mobile 6.5.3 Rom for Omnia i900 v1.7.2 XPR) and first time was a charm cuz of my previous reading and understanding rom's. But what I couldn't find is my qestions about the problem mention it in the questions posted above in this post, so I would be very thankful if someone here explains me that.

I have already a SE Xperia Arc S, but I have my beloved Omnia i900 (which I love it so much) and wanted to bread her a new life with cooked new roms.

Thank you infront and big hello from Republic of Macedonia

Boris.
[Off-topic] Dirk:
Every ROM is specific to one particular make and model. You cannot use a ROM for a Samsung phone on a HTC phone.
[Off-topic] BorisMKD:
Thank you DirkGently for your response, it was a simple and very good explanation.

So, just to be clear, in future if I want to flash a ROM on Omnia i900, I should search for roms made especially for Omnia i900 (WQVGA), or at least it will be no hurt if I ask the chief of the particular ROM if it's gonna work on Omnia i900. :))

Once again, thank you for your answer :)

Cheers.

Hi

I've had the Omnia for 10 days now. It took a LOT of playng and tweaking (as I like a very complicated device), but, I officially have a full bloated Omnia, with beautiful skins, GPS, apps, etc... and, all is working perfect. I do introduce it to my friends with iPhones, as their phone on steroids. Although, I do have to reset maybe twice a day, due to maybe one screen hang, and, one EDGE hang. But, that's WM, at least for the EDGE hang - has happened with me with T-Mo USA, on every WM device I've had. But, I've never had a WM device, I can watch Slingbox, open a couple of apps like office, take and make a few calls, receive and send a few messages, and NOT have to reset!

The Omnia is by far the best Windows mobile phone ever. And, being a connoisseur of design, it is an enjoyable device to look at, and others to see - means a lot to me during my day.

And, everyone keeps talking about how the lower rez screen is a deal killer. Can't it be true that it not being 640x480, help make the battery life as good as it is on this device? (and, it IS good). No on eseems to have thought of that as the reson. I think this is the tradeoff Samsung decided on, and, I am all in favor of it.

I think it is very useable, and I feel no resolution is missing - AND, unlike the HTC Diamonds, and Touch pros and things, it is a nice, luxuriously big screen. And, unlike all other WM devices (for me), will LAST a day of rigorous use.

SHG-i900 and (internal) memory storage

If everything of i900 has made all of You're being happy then this's OK, but there's one thing, to my opinion, is make this device being the top when the Samsung's programmer link the (internal) memory storage to the 16G (or 8G) of "My Storage"

If You're using the WM for awhile, then You know that the default of installed programs and the documents is in memory storage, but this storage is very limited due to flash memory installed in our devices. Now, Samsung has intergrated the flash memory to 16G but, unfortunately, it's still a part of external memory like the add-on SD card, and then when the Samsung add more programs to the rom (like upgraded-rom G4), the internal memory storage is being shrunk and if You have the Outlook data (Calendar, contact...) of about 10 years of working, your pim.vol will take a big part and leave a little room for your desired appz...

I understand that, some of our member said, move the installed programs to My Storage, but with some programs like SPB Mobile Shell, and the other... should be in the internal memory. Even some programs, we installed to My Storage, but some of DLLs of this program still puts its to the Windows directory and the result is some day, we don't have enought memory of the other documents like messages....

With the knowledge and programming skill of Samsung, I wonder to know why don't they link or expanded the internal memory to 16G while, I remember, our Brothers in XDA-Developers forum can do the good job on HX-4700.

With the advertising of i900 with 16G, I think, it's a tricky to make competition with iPhone and leading to our mis-undertanding that the memory storage is 16G, but actually, it's just the external memory like SD card and create a lot trouble for new users and the headache for our experienced users.

With me, this problem should be solved by Samsung and we have to wait for year to years but if, our brother in XDA-Developer put their hands (the mod-rom), then just about a month, this device is being perfect.

For my wish, please our brothers take a look and give us a hand to make our wish (I hope) to be true...

Thanks so much...

Yep its best PPC I have owned, GPS with Tomtom is flawless, camera is very acceptable quality, 16GB flash memory is ample also can expand storage another 16GB, thats massive! Plus it has a built in optical mouse pad I find it very useful, oh and it an power off unlike any PPC I owned before.

Samsung really did a great job with design, feel and packing in all the functionality, its really a pleasure to use. I only wish device with big LCD and many features can have a battery that lasts longer and one criticism I have is battery life, its terrible and takes 2+ hrs to fully charge, also if using GPS and car charger is connected the battery cannot sustain the drain rate to charge rate, thus, battery dies even though connected to power sorce, a huge huge design flaw IMHO.

If you want to cook OMNIA ROM safely,

It is surely possible, however, you should be realistic about quality when compared to dvd, HD, PC, camcorder, etc. If you plan to buy this device soley based around TV output and you have expectations that it will compare to any of the above then save your money.

If however you want a great WinMo thats well built and has functionality then Omnia has it!

Info: Samsung i900 Omnia TV-Out Cable

My first post... Hope adding to this thread is preferred rather than starting a new one. I have used Search and even Google does not provide the below info. :p

I have been looking for the specifications and availability of the TV-Out Cable for the Samsung i900 Omnia (hence, with S20pin interface). It seems to be the same as for the D880, G600 and U900: AATCS10CBEC. Only the Samsung Mobile India site is listing this accessoire on http://in.samsungmobile.com/accessory/AATCS10. Googling this product code shows that the cable is not widely available, yet, but found in some Turkish, Greek and German internet shops.

Please note that the other TV-Out Cables from Samsung Mobile (i.e. http://uk.samsungmobile.com/accessory/ATC011, http://uk.samsungmobile.com/accessory/ATC012 and http://uk.samsungmobile.com/accessory/ATC020) are probably

not

compatible with the Omnia due to the different interface.

With regard to other cables (e.g. chargers, sync cables, wired headphones), at least the following phone models seem to be using the S20pin interface as well: C450, D880, F210, F250, G600, G800, I450, I550, I560, I780, J700, M600, L760, P520 and U900. Hence, their accessoires might well fit on the Omnia, too.

Hope this is useful to you. Please do let know if any of the above details are incorrect, as I do not have the Omnia myself, yet, so not able to test/verify it.

Cheers,

DaZelator.

What need to do before using Grandprix to flash the phone:

Install active sync(XP or 2003) or WDC(Vista or 2008).

Install the samsung Modem driver,you can get it from here,click the second button:

http://www.samsungmobile.com/promotion/omnia/sg/sub02_xp.jsp

http://www.samsungmobile.com/promotion/omnia/sg/sub02_Vista.jsp

Then you can start the Grandprix.

If you use Vista, disable UAC first, or you'll get an error messege when start the Grandprix :OpenSCManager failed (5)

Load the correct rom file ,and click detect.

Make sure your phone is turned off. Then plug in the usb cable, your phone will auto start shortly. If not ,press the start button on the phone.

After first screen shows on the phone , Grandprix will detect the connection and auto start the upgrade.

I've tested several rom versions, all work perfect.

If someone need the Vista version of Grandprix, i will upload it.
