But i dont know which version to go for 2003 or 2005 and what are the problems associated with it.
which on would u people go for ( i mainly use it for contacts, Daily Diary, also for Tomtom 3, and the calculator, i also use a bluetooth hands free)
what do u people rekkon (can u tell me where to get the latest version or both os) and educate me in upgrading
cheers

Hi...
u have many choices for upgrading ur device...lots of 2003,3 SE,and 5 or 6 WM2005...
U can find them on ftp and u can find WM2005 on http://www.buzzdev.net
I advise u to read everything about Magneto(WM2005) before upgrading,I think TomTom 3 won't work,but I heard that TomTom 5 had no problems...
RAGO :lol:
hi mate
I went onto buzzdev
there is a 2003se and it says orginal, does this mean it has come from O2 or is a copy of a offcial release (i.e. does not have any problems )
let me know ASAP as i am waiting for your expert opinon before i try ton install it
cheers

Hi Neel...
there is no official release of 2003SE for Himalaya devices,though,this version and others(3 different versions of SE for Himalaya),are stable and their problems where solved perpetually long time ago...I personally tried all of them and was using them for a long time before I upgraded to Magneto,no specific problem to mention...
For further help in upgrading,read the wiki page from here,it's on the top left of ur screen....
Good luck...

Omnia bootload mode available?
Hi all
Anyone know if there is a bootload mode for Omnia?
I was updating my phone using the new firmware and it was halfway through 'file 2' and my computer froze up! All I could do was reboot the computer.
Now my phone is dead. It does not get recognised by ActiveSync to try to run the firmware again. The only thing that comes up on the phone is the first 'Samsung Omnia' logo.
Any Ideas?
Cheers

The only way to repair your Omnia (for the moment), is to take it to Samsung Center Service, with this update from Samsung, you don't lose the waranty even if somethig goes wrong at update.
Read the FAQ on samsung update site
Hey there, cool to see omnia users on xda-dev
Maybe mine got shipped with a different rom, coz I already had google launcher in programs (but not the other changes).
Could you please all list your device infos, to check whether we all got the same or not ?
Here are mine : pda/phone i900DXHG2, bluetooth 2.0.3 & 2.0.1, wifi 0.4.3.1 & 1.0
You can find everything under settings -> system -> version
Also, here is another board with dedicated section for omnia
Do you know any other board ? There's also ppcsg with many infos but no dedicated section.
I tried a few button combination to achieve either a hardreset or bootloader access, but couldn't find anything up now.
Maybe with a microsd card and a password file, as on some other devices.
Any trick to share ?
niko
Here is my data (german rom):
PDA i900XGHG5/BHHG6
Phone i900XXHG3
BT 2.0.3 / 2.0.1
WiFi 0.4.3.1 / 1.0
thx for sharing, looks like there already are many rom versions for omnia, I guess this is a very good thing.
Any special issue or special thing about this rom ?
Just found that for hardware hardreset, might help:

Omnia Rom
Knowing this new rom is for Singapore only. Can Malaysia version use it? Any problem if we flash it with Singapore one?
Lagging
I had gotten an Omnia sometime last month. Before and after updating to their(Samsung) new official ROM, the Omnia stills seems to be lagging under performing. What could the problem be? The last update was at the service center.
Any good roms to recommend?
you ALL need to read i900.modaco.com and check out the ROM FAQ at the top.
It tells you how the names of the roms translate, what they mean and how it affects you. It will also tell you about the latest roms and which have been tested including the latest J5 rom. It will also tell you about the two methods you have for rom flashing.
Hi there...
I read a lot about the upgrade dell'Omnia, opinions are more varied ..
I feel to receive a 3G dual-band: 900 and Umts 2100 and not Gsm: Quad Band (850/900/1800/1900).
Believe could be a problem using the new rom official from Samsung (i900XIHJ3 )...???...
Thanks to those who have the patience to answer
Someone know if I buy a Polish Omnia if I can Rom update it to English??
Or is it like HTC,, Instal SPl flash rom?

Well
how many of us have successfully flash WM6.5?

Personally I am happy with SPB Mobile Shell 3. The I am not interested in another WinMo version until 7, which will need another phone.
GPS performans with WM6.5
Flashed with Tommy34's ROM with WM6.5.
Very happy that my GPS fixing -boring- delay is fully resolved.
I almost believed in my Device have had a hardware defect, then realized it is none..
I have got one single trouble that SKYPE WinMobile v2.5 can not be installed..
I will try v3.0 Beta ASAP I am able to download..
***Edited***
Beta v3.0 works out..
I installed tommy34 cHome 0.4 ROM and I'm very happy with it. My gps finally works too...and the phone is more response in general.
i have used
hi

I have not been able to flash my phone.
I am using Vista and when I try and flash the rom on the phone, I get:
Vista has found new hardware (I think it was a CDMA Driver)
I've flashed WM6.5 (can't remember which version I used), and I thought all was going well, until I tried to sim unlock it. The phone is 2 months old, with Orange branding, and had the horrible Orange Unique Manager, which is why I wanted to flash the phone, and I assumed the phone was simlocked. After I flashed it, I bought a Sim Unlock Code, but when I put a 3 sim card in, I didn't get the expected "Enter SIM Unlock Code" prompt. Instead I just get "No Service" displayed on the home screen with the exclaimation mark at the top where the signal strength is displayed. I've also tried with an (active contract) T-mob Sim, and a Tesco Mob Sim. Same thing, I don't get the prompt to be able put the unlock code in.
I can't help thinking it's because I've flashed the phone, it seems like there's something preventing the Enter SIM Unlock Code dialog from coming up. Is there anyone else with this problem, or a solution? What ROMs are people using that they have sucessfully SIM unlocked their phones with?
Thank you!
So does it still work with an Orange Sim?
I have flashed my Orange UK Jade with various flavours of WM6.5, all with good results, currently using a version cooked by PDAVIET, with no issues.
Guys, is it possible to flash to Windows 6.5 then flash again to 6.1 if all doesn't go well?
just wondering but are PDAVIET, Ironeagle and Tommy34s version of wm 6.5 all have 8gb micro sd support. And also which would you recommend as the best.
I flash 6.5 German and ist is working grate.
I used
Jade_LeanCut_GER_WM65_5.2.23001_OEM_2.33.721.1
Installed
2DManila_1_20_19131530_00
And MUI 407 files from erviuskitchen german kittchen.
And installed only th programms that i need.
Only i need Thai caracters in sms. It is not possible to change the thaom font to a full wich Asiatic caracters. installed msss.tff and change all to it, but manila sms does not take care about font change in sms/messages...
I tryed to coock a rom usin erviuskitchen german kittchen wich only changing tahoma font. but all roms i cooked with it are getting instable after 2 dayes. My favorite navigation system wich german and Asien maps does not start afer 3 times anymore.
Si i stick nearly fully satisfyed with the Jade_LeanCut_GER_WM65_5.2.23001_OEM_2.33.721.1
Hi,
I got my HTC since 2 mounth, and i really want to test WM6.5, but i must say that i'm a little afraid about flashing my phone.
I've read the "flash for n00bs" post, and it seems that there is a way to "flash-back" your phone to a factory version, am I right...?
By the way, if i want to use my waranty, can i "flash-back" my phone ?
Sorry for my bad english, thanks guys !

Hello,
I am from Brazil and bought my Touch 3G about two months ago. It came with WM 6.1.
Last week I successfully applied the "Hard SPL 2.33 by Olinex" and then Flashed it with "Touch3G__WM6.5__2_33_721_17__B23033_WWE" ROM from PDVIANET.
Everything is running fine. The only comment is that we really need to disabled the 3G (H) network and run just with Edge (E) in order to save some battery. Other than that I recommend everybody to upgrade to WM 6.5

Hello All,
Does anybody know when HTC is planning to release the WM6.5 update for phones sold in India??? The UK site is not allowing me to download the update if I give my phone's serial key...

HTC is NOT planing to upgrade TD2 in India - As per a CALL with HTC...
I was abvle to download from Europe site. (http://www.htc.com/europe/)
You can also try or get any WWW rom and install. That should work.
PS: The India site is maintain by HTC Twain group
Thanks.
South Africa is also not going to be getting an upgrade by the looks of things... i find that ridiculous. why not just let us install the UK versions...it's the same language after all...
sigh.
Why this stepmotherly treatment to some countries?
Btw, has anyone downloaded the UK version? Does it work?

Has anyone installed a UK / Europe ROM on an Asiapac device? Does it work?
Called up HTC customer care number 1800113377
asked them about "when we will get the update?". Lady on the phone clearly said "we ARE going toget the update". we just have to wait little bit more.
the update is ready with them and it is the HTC HQ's call when to release the update.
bottom line is "wait and watch http://www.htc.com/in/support.aspx"

DAMN! i'm sorry to hear about your scare...i kinda feel responsible, having suggested the idea!
may I ask why you are avoiding installing a cooked or even OFFICIAL (as in UK version) ROM? are you worried about guarantee? or the risk of damaging your phone? Because if so, then i am gladly willing to walk any1 through the steps you need to take to get it running.
Guide me pls..
drag-on.. i'll b happy if u could guide me thro the steps , i was kinda scared to install a cooked rom on my HTC diamond2 till now coz while trying to do the same with my HTC touch i bricked my mobile a year back..
and i couldnt find a proper step by guide for doin this.. in every thread regarding the same somebody or the other is getting into problems..
so pls illustrate a proper step by step guide on the procedures of installin a ROM on a factory HTC touch diamond2..
I'll be glad to. what i would then rather do is send you a private message with the steps, so that we don't clutter the forums and have snide comments from senior members about how "easy" it all is. (they ARE right, but i know the first time is scary)
i'm going partying now, but i'll be glad to send you (and any1 else who asks for a private message) step by step instructions tomorrow.
what you can do in the mean time, is have a look at which ROM you think you might want (i'll add my suggestions anyways) here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=486
thanks dude..
thanks for the help dude.. i'll go thro that documents now..
lookin forward to ur message..

I'm kind of in the same boat.... I found my old Dopod 838 Pro and thought I would bring it into the 'now' and give it to the kids.
Have you had any luck finding a good ROM?
Damn...
I have the same problem...actually, I have a few more than that when it comes to my newly acquired Hermes. I love it but am struggling to unlock via SD method and also that the phone s language is in Spanish doesn't help.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda app-developers app
I'll post some links..
I have a few roms and tools that I used back in the day, I would have to dig them up though, so give me a day and I'll upload and post the links.
I renamed some of them to HEMIMG.nbh to flash them so I can't tell you exactly what they are as I have no clue anymore but hopefully the others will help you.
Also, you should try digging through old p2p like dc++, emule.. they are still widely used. They might have something there.
That's all I have left from the old days.
Hey, I gathered up all the stuff I could find with the string 'herm' on all my HDDs. Hope this helps and sorry for those HERMIMG.nbh, I too have no clue what roms they are.
