Ok I flashed the G4 ROM from Chaimd and it works ok so far. Now I have 51 mb of storage memory vs 35 before with the Singapore G4 ROM. It will be good when we can cook our own ROM and take out some of the stuff we don't need.
[Off-topic] fenomeno83:

I got problem when the program stop at 41% with "Port create failed" and now it has "no radio" (no phone). Try to go back again with GrandPrix but it can't find any modem port.

I also can't use the Singapore Rom (DXHG4) due to no radio to change it back to Singapore country.

Please give me some hints or any suggestions to recue my baby...

Thanks,

KC

You have the Modem driver installed I assume Right? I fell sory you are having trouble. If you can't find a Phone.bin you might have to get Samsung to reload the phone part.
[Off-topic] g00ndu:
Guys, I am sorry about your phones. I feel using the manual override is extremely dangerous. Don't forget by selecting Singapore, we do not know what will happen to the phone rom in your device.

Right now, there are already 2 cases with the latest pda rom but NO phone rom.

instead of using the grandprix, can you guys try to use the exe updater and try to upgrade it?

Currently, I do not know if there is a phone rom available, I doubt so. For the i780, so far I only know that the russians had managed to come up with the PUHE1.

If all fails, guess that you guys will need to pay a visit to the SSC.

:(
[Off-topic] paulobrien:
The official HG4 updater does install a phone ROM, whether it CAN if your existing one is toasted is a different question.

It sounds like using the GrandPrix method isn't a very good idea!

P
[Off-topic] bobsbbq:
In order to use updater you have to use preconfiguration. The problem is if the phone radio is off you can't open preconfig. This is the problem KChauJen is having. I think his mistake of flashing the PDA to the phone part may cause him a trip to the SSC.

Any luck on the Kitchen? I downloaded the I780 kitchen and manage to get the dump but that is as far as I got.
[Off-topic] paulobrien:
Sounds like selecting Singapore country BEFORE is a good idea?

P
[Off-topic] g00ndu:
I believe the grandprix method is okay, but using the override might be dangerous... again this is only my conjecture...

I believe that the official HG4 upgrade comes with the phone rom as well, else you will not have both phone and pda version as the same.

Try it guys, and see if it works. Hope you guys can provide some feedback.
[Off-topic] bobsbbq:
Yes I have left mine as Singapore even though it is a Thailand Device. I figure a new H1 may come out and no need to change it back for now. My phone settings are automatically detected after flash and phone and GPRS works without problem.
[Off-topic] binh:
Singapore preconfiguration

Everyone please notice. If you read my original thread to request for ROM, you would know that I already set my preconfiguration to Singapore and the Operator to SingTel.

That's not the issue here anyway, what I really need is to find a Phone ROM to flash back.

What really happened that cause the disaster is that I flashed the PDA ROM into the Phone part because I followed the image instruction on a Chinese forum... Later on I found out the file on the image was actually a Phone image, not PDA image.

The origin of this mistake is that I could not Browse for the .bin file from any button except that "Phone" button. After the accident happen the GrandPrix progam was able to detect .bin file as PDA image as well. It "forced" me to click each button LOADER, PDA, CSC without detecting anything. And finally it's the PHONE button that accepted the i900DXHG4_PDA.bin file.

[Off-topic] bobsbbq:
You must open the bin from the PDA button not the phone. Phone is only for a phone.bin
[Off-topic] KChauJen:
To my opinion, the G4 from chaimd is the PDA part and we need the phone's part to go together.

With my experience, before flash to any rom, switch your device to Singapare region and then do it.

I still struggle with a different way... it's have to work or be in the rubbish bin.

Thanks for all your help... and please.. find out the alternative to rescue the two venturer-on-wrong-way.

KC

PS

How could we bypass the "verify device" from the updated rom of DXHG4 (Singapore)???

This's the solution...
[Off-topic] paulobrien:
Eek, that's in contradiction to that Chinese site. That should be in big bold letters...

P
[Off-topic] bobsbbq:
Yes. There is a dump of the phone but I don't think anyone has managed to make a flashable file. I don't think it is possible at the moment. Best luck will be to flash a new file even if wrong language to get it back working.
[Off-topic] paulobrien:
So could you not rename a part02.raw to a bin and flash using GrandPrix?

It is easy to extract the Phone part from User Downloader.

He wrote in his blog that he had found the location of TOC,Table Of Contents, in User Downloader.

But he would never try to check the extracted Phone part bin on his own device,

because flashing Phone part is slightly dengerous and he has only one OMNIA.

he would take more safe way to patch DXHG4 User Downloader.

FYI, I have no OMNIA.

He had to buy two SGH-i780 for some dengerous tests to get a hard reset feature for all.

But no one donated to him from Samsung community.

And he blamed in this thread. I think that he will not buy his 2nd OMNIA.

There are many hints here and in his blog.

Please please, If some one can help me

The Samsung Omnia is wonderful but after I did an update with a new framework

the device stopped working.

I had an error after file number 2. Since then the device will not work.

I have a black screen and the device does not respond. Even the LED won't light when I connect it with the power cord. Nothing helps: reset, hard reset, nothing.

I had HTC Trinity and Kaiser, I flashed a lot of ROMs and nothing happened to my older devices.

The first time I did an upgrade to the Omnia and the device died, it’s a brick now.

Please please, If some one can help me bring my phone back to life I will be thankful

Hi JimmyMcGee,

My pleasure to see a post from a moderator here.

My humble suggestion: Why not a forum for Popular PDAs or Hot PDAs and then Omnia as a category in it? On another sub domain.

xda-developers.com is too popular for PDA discussion. In fact I was a reader of this forum since 2005 but I did not contribute until recently. I didn't even know it's just HTC forum. Or I misbelieved that this forum deals with my O2 PDAs and O2 is not HTC hence it's about PDA, not HTC... well that's all confusions.

BTW, I'm one of the 3 guys who just managed to brick our phone part of our Samsung Omnia, so once more, I warn people to be super careful when trying to flash their Omnia ROM using GrandPrix, here is the link for details English ROM for Samsung Omnia SGH-i900/i908

Binh.

Please consider adding it in :) I'm sure it would help the site evolve even further.

Ther is always a possibility of a problem. Especially with the Updater of G4 there are many topics on ppcsg talking about this. Most of the problems cam from users with Vista.

Bottom line it is your choice and risk you have to way out. For me I have a i780 and live 2 km from the SSC if I have a problem so for me it is worth the risk as I have a backup phone and live close to the service center.

Now I would like to give a big Thanks to Chaimd for his great work, he really is a master.

Also to Paul (MVP) from Modaco forum for supporting Omnia users.

Now I'm going to send some cash to Chaimd as he desreves it. I would also say if you like the ROM at least thank him and or make a small donation to him. After all without his new H1 ROM we would all still be waiting.

xda-developer bug...can't help flashing

Had this phone less than a week and flashed it twice already! (1st G4 and now the H1 ROM) Thanks guys!

Really wasn't expecting so much so soon, the H1 ROM seems a big improvement after some initial disappointments with my omnia.

Only recently flashed, but so far seems stable (no more hangs like with G3), haptic keyboard is very nice and makes typing much easier (not sure why exactly...but it works!)

I'm very pleased to see finger scrolling included in this ROM after having problems installing FTouchflo on previous versions. However it does seem a bit jerky and not as refined as FTouchflo.

Another subtle update is the ability to change the rotation animation and the scroll bars seem thicker by default.
