i REALLY need some help

Ok so i just found out today about the WM6 upgrade for the xv6700 so i decided to try it.
I have a Verizon XV6700 with bootloader v1.04
i used the rom from http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=7671
i downloaded the one that says Verizon not the Verizon with bootloader 1.02
I run a pc with windows vista
here is what i did step by step
I put the ppc into bootloader mode and then connected it to the pc via usb
then i opened the exe file from my desktop and followed the directions and then clicked install
it then popped up a little window saying checking the information on your device....please wait.... and below it it said dont disconnect your device until the update is complete...
i read that the update takes about 7 mins i allowed it to sit at this for 20 mins and it still did nothing...so i disconnected the usb and then tried to restart the phone and everytime i turn it on it goes straight back to the bootloader screen i cant get out of it...is there anyway for me to get my phone to work? did i brick it? If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated

geez, looks like i am not the only one messing up here. I regret this fancy roms by now... but search on PPCgeeks.com some article called "stuck on BL screen" or stuck on bootloader, there''s a little exe you run to get out of it. good luck
i got mine stuck too, but no on the BL.

There aren't that many settings to go re-enter anyway. I like a clean call log and text history so I am going for it. Only 15m left for download to complete and my phone needs charging

Its the loss of schaps advanced config tool (for custom theme colors) and ability to modify ringtones etc that bothers me most.

Just flashed this.
Copy/paste is there, the phone seems faster and the screen contrast higher;
OS: 7.0.7389.0
Firmware: 2250.09.13001.061
Radio: 5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U
Bootloader: 1.30.2250.1

Are the Orange Apps installed as well ?
Notice any issues with Zune sync ?

Спасибо))) то не было на ораж ничего то nепрь сразу с NoDo

How to
Been a long time flasher, with my touch pro 2 using energy roms so know what im doing.
But this rom seems different.
1. what is the correct process to flash this rom.
2. do i have to debrand first
3. do i need to install active sync, i have but it says drivers failed to load. I am running 64bit win 7
4. do i need to put it into boot loader
5. should i just wait for the official one.
6. i really dont want to do number 5.
please help
1. Correct process is you do need active sync, just make sure its the correct one for your system
2. No debranding needed,
3. See question 1
4.Yes bootloader is needed to flash with active sync
5. dont wait for official on as all updates are included.
and for other question on forum, yes all orange apps are included and seenm to be working
hope this helps everybody

i didnt think you needed active sync for wp7 devices only zune?
in anycase can someone who has done the upgrade please confirm:
1. You can go from old orange rom to the one above by simply running rom update or do you still need to copy over ruu signed file etc?
2. does the phone need to be unlocked?
3. you can use normal cable supplied with phone.
sorry for my ignorance. but everyones seems to be asking the same questions but no-one has of yet put up a defintive guide.

1. Yes you can flash from any Orange ROM to 1.30
2. No need to unlock the phone
3. Normal cable is fine
To flash, enter bootloader mode, close Zune and start the flashing utility. Bootloader mode can be accessed by pressing the volume down button while powering up. Make sure you are at 50% or above battery life.

Confirmed everything works as above.
Slightly Scary moment during Flashing where it reached 9% and then rebooted the phone but continued successfully.
After such a hype about copy/paste ... wished the function worked better. Overall performance does seem much improved.

Thanks guys, will give it a try.
did you guys extract the files using winrar and then run the ruu file or did you just double click the file once downloaded?

After download I did the following:
Disabled File Defense on my Firewall (using Comodo FW & Windows 7)
Switched my phone off.
Restarted in Bootloader mode (While holding VOL DOWN key, Press Power button to turn on)
Connected the USB cable and waited for Windows to installs the correct driver.
Bootloader screen changes from "Serial" to "USB" (bottom of the screen)
Ran the EXE (as is, without unrar etc) as Administrator
Watched, waited, rebooted ... all is good.

nice one, cheers. will it give it a go tonight. fingers crossed.

Just run my phone next to my friends. both phones are orange but his version is 1.25.
1.30 boots faster, applications launch faster and the screen contrast is indeed higher. Also noticed a couple of new features such as automatic time sync from network and the phone now goes to vibrate during meetings automatically as windows mobile does.
I had to switch off auto time sync since orange uk was reporting 20:30 at 13:00

Just wanted to say thanks to all. I did the update last night and first impressions are good. seems smoother, faster, brighter. so far so good.
thanks for your help and thanks football for providing the rom.

How on earth do I install this on my phone?
I have Active Sync installed, Zune is installed, All drivers are installed.
Booted up in bootloader, started up the update in admin mode, and it keeps saying connection error like it doesn't pick up my phone.
What am I doing wrong?

This is the steps I went through and worked first time.
1. Download Rom.
2. Download correct active sync for your system i.e. 32/64 bit.
3. Put phone into boot loader. Power off phone. power on holding the power button and volume down. this will take you to the three bar colour bootloader.
4. connect phone to pc using standard usb cable. which should say usb on the bottom bar.
5. run active sync, this should now find and connect to your phone.
6 run rom update with or without unzipping that is up to you.
7 wait for update to flash. this does take about 4 - 5 min but seems like forever.
Hope this helps anybody wanting to do this as it is well worth it.

Omnia 7 Download Mode...

Just thought i would share my findings. I have been trying to get my T-Mobile UK Omnia 7 into download mode for ages!
The Vol UP, Camera Button, Power button trick did not work.
However i discovered that if you
- Hold the Vol UP button and the Camera Button
- THEN connect the device to your PC via USB
it will power it up and enter the device into Download Mode.
Well i hope that helps some others like it helped me
Regards,
Alan

I still can not update my phone to version 7.0.7392.0
I tried and cant go into download mode
I have to hold vol-up+camera for how long?

Basically what i did was hold the phone in one hand pressing the vol up and camera button. Then simply plugged in my Omnia 7 via USB. It went into download mode all by its self.
I had been trying for months, even just ordered a jig thing off ebay lol
Anyway, i managed to flash the phone down to 7004, then upgrade to 7392. Also make sure you have installed the new drivers off the samsung site (v1.3).
Long story short, i am now happily running Mango, and WOW it's a massive improvement! What ever you do dont Waslh your phone, it causes more issues than good as i found out lol.

That's great news influenceuk. I am also a new T-Mobile Omnia 7 user (great deal @ £15pm), and I had to enter 'download Mode' the hard-way, a little bit of patience and a 300K Ohm resistor from Maplin did the trick. So the method you propose bypasses the USB-Jig antics, that would be awesome.
I'm tempted to flash the blocked bootloader back to confirm your findings.

Yeah chemeng, it worked perfectly for me last night after trying for months!!
I only had to do it cause i walshed my phone, and it was causing issues updating to the mango beta. i will see if i can find the page i found the instructions on

Just looked thought my history, but cant find the exact solution i mention. I did find the XDA Dev guide, which i think i may have mis read... then found my work around.
Some one else should try and see if it works too, hopefully it does.

Sorry but I cant get my phone into dowhload mode with your solution

It seems as if Alan's bootloader was semi-blocked

hey folks thıs worked for me
http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/samsung-outs-omnia-7-patch-fixes-wp7-update-errors

Well, I used to encounter this problem that cannot access to the download mode and getting error code (8XXXXXXXX) when trying to update the phone via Zune Software. But after trying update via zune few times, I successfully updated my OMNIA 7 to 7392 and got download mode works afterwards.

Same here. Tried to get into Download Mode for hours. I was about to build myself a jig.fortunatley i Tried updating my phone via zune... et voila...zune updated my bootloader and the Rom.
Now im able to get into Download Mode without any problems! I got a Samsung omnia 7 from t-mobile Germany.
Hope this helps...

Bootloader version
Is there anyone who has successfully updated their Omnia 7 from NoDo to 7392 (latest security update) or Mango, with a bootloader version of 4.10.1.9, without using a USB jig?
Thanks,
Karthik

I have tried almost everything, but nothing works, I also have Omnia 7 with 7390 and bootloade 4.10.1.9, I think with this version of bootloader there isn't any other option than usb jig. I even called samsung helpline (they were much less informed than me, so they just told me to bring the phone to service center), does anyone have experience with service center, or is it better to make USB jig and do it at home?

I have three Omina 7 ,they are all 16G type.
First one ,by pressing vol up ,camera and power button can reach the download mode.
Unfortunately,the other two must use a jig to get the download mode.

[Q] Bricked phone after failed RTM Mango Update

Hi guys
Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction before I send my Samsung Omina 7 in for repair. First a brief history
Updated previously from NoDo to the first mango beta without issue, then again to the refresh beta without a problem. Decided today that I would for RTM.
During update process updatewp kept timing out - I've since read resetting the device before attempting or deleting some of the zip files in the RTM package fixes this.
Instead of searching forums I unplugged the device and reset it when it wouldn't reboot. This left me with a completely unstable OS. It took ages to boot up and most apps wouldn't load.
I tried to restore my NoDo backup from the Zune beta but it didn't work. I uninstalled Zune Beta and drivers and attempted the restore using the current Zune version and again the restore would not work.
Figured I would just reflash the rom instead so I followed the guide below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=973420&highlight=how+to+rom
This also failed - I can get into download mode, and WP7 Downloader looks like it's proceeding correctly but it is my understanding that after the first reboot it should go into the "connect to computer" style mode with the picture of the phone and a computer connected with USB. My phone does not do this - instead it boots to the Samsung Omina screen and just sits there. It seems to quickly reboot every 10 mins or so.
I've attempted the flash a second time and got the same result. Any ideas?

just goto download mode and flash it with another firmware..

If you can't get into download mode, just go to your closest DIY shop, grab 3 100k resistors and make yourself a JIG.
Full instructions here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092824&highlight=JIG
You should be able to reboot in download mode, and then restore to whatever ROM you want

Just tried that - used a different one but got the same result.
When WP7 Downloader gets to "Plz wait while rebuilding" the phone has rebooted to the samsung omnia 7 screen and not the computer connection screen.

Weird.
If you got to download mode after using the JIG, flash should be flawless.
I'm clueless here, apart from trying again with a different firmware/JIG.

Just and FYI. I couldn't fix it myself so I send it in for repair. They needed to replace the motherboard.

[Q] LG G2 D802 Soft-Brick: KDZ flash won't start

Hi,
This is my first post here, I hope I'm posting in the right section
I wanted to flash the G Pro 2 port (ROM) to my LG D802 (32GB) using cwm (had no problems with root and cwm).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2673143
I screwed it up and now booting is stuck at the LG logo, custom recovery is also gone. I can still enter download mode, so I tried to flash the stock ROM using R&D and the LG mobile support tool. When I plug the device in, the program starts to "connect" and after about 30 seconds it says new updates are available, then flashes to up to date immediately. It also gives me a code that is supposed to be the current firmware number, so I guess that the phone can connect to my PC just fine.
The problem is that when I want to flash the KDZ file the "select language" window doesn't pop up, instead it launches the LG mobile support (same as if I would launch the exe manually without R&D).
http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f177/guide-how-update-kdz-firmware-1629632/
Step 11 works fine, but instead of Step 12 it launches the LG mobile support tool and says it's up to date
Also R&D freezes if I press "start upgrade" or "read phone information" are these considered normal? Tried on my PC and a laptop I borrowed. Crashes on both systems (PC-Windows 8.1 (64bit), Laptop-Windows 7 (64bit)).
Is there anything that can be done or am I totally screwed? Any help would be appreciated.
PS: In download mode it says rooted and shows the LG logo when I try to charge the phone (as if it was trying to boot), is it still charging or I will have a brick when the battery goes dead?
Edit: Windows enabler is on, though I have no idea what does it actually do (all guide say it is needed). Same goes for "small server".

Try using it on a different computer with a different internet connection. I had the same problems as you described. It somehow refused to install the KDZ file on my D802 but finally worked on my laptop.

Thank You so much for answering. So You are saying it's picky when it comes to computers? Already tried two systems (Windows 8.1 and windows 7) but they were hooked up to the same router. My sister also has a laptop, after that Im out of laptops (lol). Will also try it with a different internet connection. Also could You please tell me what OS was running on your laptop? I read somewhere that XP compatibility mode can help. Doesn't make a difference for me, but it could mean that the program was written for XP and doesn't work on Windows 7/8 at all. At least I'm a bit relieved now that there's a little chance that it's just the program and not my phone

Yep, Windows XP did the job.
Have you earlier installed a KDZ file on your G2 and now doing it again but not working? or is this just the first time you're trying this?

It's my first time. Didn't really like all the bloatware, bad camera software and Jelly Bean with no update available (according to the phone). The LG Pro 2 ROM looked like it could fix all issues I had with the phone and... well, there's no bloatware on my phone now, that's for sure
Thanks again for your help, I will try with XP. Hopefully it will work this time
EDIT: Irrelevant I guess but was it service pack 2 or 3? I just can't get myself to trust any software after everything dear to me has betrayed me.

Solved
It works!!!
Had nothing to do with XP, but with LG updating their flashing tool. Now it only works with this little trick:
