t-mob (germany) no mango (i need help please) - Omnia 7 General

hello all,
so i am slightly annoyed, that theres no mango yet, i am hoping ypu people can help me, get rid of this horrible t-mob germany firmware.
on: 7.0.7392.0
Bootloader 5.2.1.4
unlocked (three uk sim atm) (i am in uk)
i just want mango, i dont care how i get it----im pretty pc knowledgeable, so just fire it at me.

It's been mentioned a few times already, but the Mango update may take a while to reach all devices.
There's a list of downloadable firmwares in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131891
And there's a guide somewhere on the site on how to flash your device. I highly suggest the JL3 firmware, as that's the one I used to debrand my T-Mobile Germany Omnia 7. After that, it's just a matter of updating it back to NoDo and then waiting for Mango to hit your device. If it doesn't come through immediately, you can always force the update (again, there's a guide around here somewhere).
Word of warning, flashing that firmware will wipe everything on your phone. Stuff that's stored in the cloud is easily sorted, but any music, videos, etc. will disappear.

hey thanks!! i am about to start sticking that rom on, the only thing i am worried about are apps, but i assume they will just sort themselves out and re-install?

ok, flashed that rom, and cant update past 7008, is there a nodo three rom available?
edit --- got it to install nodo using trick (internt pull out)

Omnia 7 mango
I am in the same boat with you. I could not update from Nodo with WIFI trick. At last, I downloaded KH2 firmware from Samsung mobile and flashed my phone. My Omnia now is the running mango fantastically!
Try it for yourself. You will not be regret.
FYI.
Quang

I got a similar phone x-display in the UK......had a problem with the battery so took it to carphone warehouse......they wiped the original t-mobile logos and german text and Mango updated straight away as soon as I got it back......so if you can find a reason for a quick repair.....

[ROM]RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.28.111.03_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50 _RELEASE

Here new ROM for Mozart
http://www.filefactory.com/file/b48..._1.28.111.03_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50_RELEASE.exe
DO NOT TRY TO FLASH THIS ROM FOR ANY OTHER DEVICE EXCEPT MOZART!
Enjoy!
THNX a LOT!
Hopefully it fixes my problems with sending text messages.
Will I lose my data (mainly my SMSes) if I install this update?
//EDIT -> according to several forums, I will lose my data...
and I haven't found any solution to backup my SMSes - yeah -.-
Is there anything I should regard or be aware of before updating?
//EDIT -> I just tried updating my phone and don't know how. It boots in the bootloader (RGB-test with some data on the device, SPL, the SD card, ...) just fine but the RUU doesn't find it.
I'm trying to flash it from a Windows XP machine - is there anything I have to take care of before I can flash it?
Or is there a real step-by-step manual for total dummies (I've flashed my HTC Diamond several times before without problems and have got no clue, why the PC won't find my Mozart).
The update process cancels with a CONNECTION ERROR [260].
will the hspa work on it from the tmobile usa after flashing this rom???
Invalid vender id
I have
INVALID VENDER ID
T-Mobile
Is there already a solution?
THX
nice greetings
Do you have the German T-Mobile version?
Mine flashed without any problems (after solving the driver problem...).
I have T-Mobile Austria.
but that this should be the same, right?
Greetings
Well, I'm not exactly sure.
However, if you think about the update failing with a wrong VENDOR ID - I guess it makes a difference.

are there any big noticable changes after flashing the new rom?
or is it just a minor security/stability update?
Be careful when uninstalling TMO apps
ROM is working very good, more fluent than stock version 1.25 - no problems found yet.
Still noticed the same problems with the stock ROM after uninstalling TMO shipped apps. When I uninstall Navigon the BING Map "Search" and "get directions" is gone/does not work anymore. When I remove "mediencenter" and plug in the headphones the phone is neither accepting nor able of making calls. However reflashing solves the problem - but you can't get rid of those TMO apps without losing functionality.

According to some other sites (just google the version number), this rom ships out with new devices. So no, it should not get you blocked, as it's a legit update.
Flashing is fairly easy: Backup everything you can, start you Mozart in Bootloader mode (pressing volume down while powering it on), plug it into your PC via USB, install the drivers if needed (done by installing Active Sync in XP, Windows Vista and newer should automatically find the needed drivers), start the updater and follow the instructions.
There is no official changelog, but several people think that the animations are smoother, the touchscreen reacts faster, ...
Seeing that there is no official changelog and the only thing we can do is assume what could have changed, I think there's no sense in discussing this. Especially since you can find several threads in other forums that discuss the changes in various lengths...
I haven't noticed any new problems after the update, so I guess it's at least as good as the previous version.
But this are just my thoughts

No you can't flash the HTC_Europe version, only the TMO_DE version.
TMO_DE stands for T-mobile Germany
HTC_Europe is the generic software for the non branded devices.
Doesn't make any difference except the useless apps you get from t-mobile.
But after you delete them everything is the same.
And for the record, You don't have to flash your phone at first... Installing new firmware IS flashing. so you just run the RUU and make sure zune is running and phone is running, not in stand-by.
And be sure to backup everything you want to keep, haven't flashed my mozart, but i think you lose all data when you flash it.
Sure someone else knows that.

Thanks for the answer!
I thought that I have to set the mozart in the bootloader mode, in order to flash. When I was telling it "flashing" I meant something like hspl like we had to do on the HD2, befor we could flash custom roms or htc roms on it.
edit: and is there any possibility to go back to: 1.25.2250.5 firmware (now installed on my phone)?
and last question this 1.28 version will not breake my warranty, right? It'S a normal t-mobile rom, isn't it?
Guys, I'm not sure I fully understand everything so far.
I basically have a Telstra (Australian) HTC 7 Mozart. From what I gather, I cannot flash this on my device until it is unbranded, is that correct?
hello to everyone.
I have a htc t-mobile mozart Germany but I live in Venezuela and I can assure you and proven DepNet.com for both 1.25 and 1.28
posted on this page to a friend Football and run to perfection
and also I can tell you that my phone came with 1.25 and the 1.28 istale him but then return to 1.25 and all is well.
and the echo for several times trying to place the Spanish language and if anyone can help I'd appreciate it forever
@ WinUser009:
HSPL was needed because we used to flash cooked (and therefore custom-made) ROMs, which were not signed by HTC or any other company able to sign them. These ROMs are unmodified and signed, which is why you can flash them without flashing any unlocked HSPL first.
Bootloader-mode is just a different mode to boot in - it does not need any changes to your phone!
I don't think that there is a possibility to go back to 1.25.xxx - but honestly why would you want to? But I have to admit that I have not yet tried it...
As to the warranty: that's a complicated matter...
This firmware is not official and my new Mozart (I got a new one after sending it in) still had the 1.25 firmware installed (someone posted that newer phones should ship with the 1.28). So there might be a person detecting that you flashed it yourself, if they keep sending out new phones with 1.25 preinstalled.
However, the phone I turned in had 1.28 flashed and I have not received any complaints when I sent it in for a replacement. So I guess it is up to your shop but it should not pose any problems!
@ameel
You can flash as soon as one of these things happen:
- custom roms are released that don't check for the carrier information
- you unlock your phone (somehow)
- Telstra releases an update
But as of now you can't flash these T-Mobile roms on your Mozart.
@minino405
Sorry, but I didn't understand your post. What did you try to tell / ask us?
I hope I could help you with some of your questions

Removing branded start-up logo? (Samsung Omnia 7)

Hi all, new here
I'm in Australia with the Samsung Omnia 7.
I bought phone online from someone who won it in an Optus competition (Optus being the carrier here).
The phone is unlocked to any network but for about 3-5 seconds upon the phones startup, there is a branded Optus logo that is displayed.
I want it GONE.
What's the best way to do this? I'm running the original firmware, not the new leaked one. I'm also not game to flash to the leaked newer firmware as Samsung hasn't released it officially and I've heard some Aussies have had some issues after doing it.
What's the safest way I can remove this start-up logo branding? Thanks!
change to a different firmware, vol up+camera+power button > download mode> samfirmwares.com firmware(unbranded)! Thats currently the only possibility.
What about by editing a registry entry or something?
I'm not prepared to "upgrade" to that firmware until Samsung releases it (if they do).
They probably haven't for a reason.
try chevron unlocker, install registry explorer search and share!
Is chevron unlocker going to change something about my device I can't reverse? I want full control of any testing I do.
sorry for late reply, the firmware file consists of lot parts (Phone, csc,eboot,pda), modifying a specific file in the archive may remove the startup logo.Just search wiki for answers about the significance of each part.Or better still, wait for the update release by MS see if it changes anything! Chevron won't help!
Most users have upgraded to the firmware available at samfirmware.com I too running omnia 7 t-mobile uk version unbranded by downloading I8700XENJK1. Have had no issues so far!
Any updates on this with new unlocking methods etc..?
I'd really like that start up pic gone if I can!

No, like has already been said, the only way to get rid of this is to re-flash the device. You should be able to only flash parts of it though which would leave the OS (and all apps, settings etc) intact. I'm guessing it's the bootloader image that includes the logo you're seeing, so would start there.

Do you have anyway to do this? There's no tool I've heard of which can replace specific parts of the ROM?
It's a full reflash or nothing, I think.

For now it is. Even with WinMo 6.5 we had to flash the 2nd start up screen. Then we had full access to the core of OS. Right now we dont. So only way to get rid of it is to flash a brand free rom issue by samsung and not a carrier
Any updates on this now?
Anyone know a registry key that is associated with the start up logo?

Are you absolutely certain about this? The ROM comes in parts and I would assume we could flash only part 1 or 2 if we so wanted?

There IS NO registry key for this. The boot logo is displayed long before the OS has even started booting.
I've also installed the firmware from samfirmware.com and I've had no issues at all. I've managed to update to Pre-NODO and NODO without any pain (apart from having to use the Hungarian Hack to get NODO early).
I've seen no downsides from my perspective.
The only risk I can see is that no carriers will have tested WP7 against this firmware until it's officially released by Samsung.
if you have a 4.10.1.9 bootloader, there's no possibility to change your rom....forget it.
right now, this bootloader fail to upgrade... no download mode ability at omnia 7

Hello everyone, Im new to the site. I too purchased, what I thought to be unbranded, a mobile over the internet that was branded with T-Mobile Germany. Im in Australia. I can use my Optus SIM Card. But what was worrying me is what affects a branded phone (especially from another country) would have on me and my usage, especially with the new Mango update.
Now unless someone can tell me that it really doesnt make any difference to how the phone will work, I want it unbranded for safety sake. That being said, my quote above, This firmware, obviously it sounds custom and not official. If I install this firmware, any Windows Update up until this point (Not Mango), will it still install via zune? and will it take on the Mango update when thats out?
Thanks guys

I believe samfirmware just releases leaked firmware. They are therefore all "official" in a sense and the unbranded ones should just be firmware for the unbranded devices.
If you're using a branded phone, the official updates will roll out when the original carrier certifies it. Apart from that and the boot branding, there shouldn't be many differences.

Branded won't make any difference to your experience. But you can flash the unbranded ROM it's easy enough and you should still get the Mango update.
So?

Own experience: Get NoDo update on Omnia 7

After many efforts without seeing NoDo update on my Omnia 7, I have tried to get NoDo update on my Omnia 7. Just want to share if my solution is ok for you
My situation: My Omnia 7 is with T-Mobile brand on its back cover but no lock to that operator, I can use normally mobile service in Vietnam. My office network is using VPN with IP in Malaysia
ROM in my Omnia 7 was I8700XENJK1 (downloaded from SamFirmware), upgraded to 7008 and not found NoDo
My solution:
1- Remove SIM card
2- Download I8700DBTJK1 ROM from SamFirmware
3- Flash I8700DBTJK1 ROM as a new firmware
4- Default language of that ROM seems to be German but it is ok, we can change it to English after finishing ROM update
5- At Zune Welcome screen, let it check update, it will find 7008 update (pre-NoDo update. In Zune, it will report as February update)
6- Finish pre-NoDo update, come to Zune program, let it check update
7- Find No-Do (in Zune, it calls March update)
8- Let it automatic do its job
9- When it finish, insert SIM card
10- Enjoy
Hope you can get it, too
No luck here, had already installed JK1 but still no nodo

thx for the effort anyway
Just to save anyone the hassle. There is nothing you can do to force the NoDo update. Anything you do before receiving the update notification is entirely coincidence.
And just to prove my point, I tried this. It doesn't work
you should note that there are 3 JK1 ROMs in SamFirmware, I used XENJK1 but no NoDo. When I changed to another, NoDo appears
Hope you can find NoDo, too

Again, coincidence. I too am using XENJK1, however flashed the same ROM as you (DBTJK1) and no NoDo.
There is no finding NoDo, it finds us
I have a new think. Can u try?
Before completing the update with new rom (xen to dbt), u open Zune and delete the existing device in Zune, then u connect your Omnia to PC
Hope it done !!!
If you have flashed the rom and received the pre nodo update then you WILL get nodo soon, you're on the list for rollout it's just a matter of waiting for it to come to you.

[Q] Updating after flashing a rom.

Hey Guys,
I have recently purchased a T-mob UK Omnia 7 and am willing to flash it with a non-branded rom. I am confident enough in how to do it. Are the roms available from samifirmware unbranded?
The thing I wanted to ask was, after flashing the rom, am I going to receive notifications for updates? Is the phone going to update? The reason I am asking is that I noticed some people are facing problems when updating the post-nodo update.
thanks
Hey,
I just did the same that you want to do. Flashed the Omnia 7 with the
Firmware Version I8700XXJK1 and "de-branded" my phone with that.
After flashing I got a message that the pre-nodo update is available.
After updating the Omnia 7 to 7008 I thought I will get the NoDo Update but nothing came yet....
Hope that this won't take too long

I am coming from Android and still getting used to the differences.
No wonder those ROMS are branded, but are they truly?
Roms posted on samfirmware, are all branded but some does not have a splash screen for operator logo, there seem to be some 000-88 carrier code to deal with. I had my Omnia 7 on Orange, I flashed it with DBTJK1 from samfirmware, it picked up the pre-nodo update right away. NoDo, however was not available as of yesterday.
Having checked on Microsoft's website, I learnt that Orange was delivering all available updates. So, I tweaked back my registry to ORG-GB (Originally noted from my official ROM before replacing it), the restarted my phone and NoDo was available.
So just hack your registry for the carrier or any unbranded code and you shall get the update right away.

Please stop, you've said the same thing three times now.
I have tried flashing the DBTJK1 firmware today and I got the feburary update but not nodo. I even tried setting the carrier to ORG-GB and rebooting the phone with no luck. If anyone can give any advice, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I flahed my Omnia 7 with the "I8700 XEN I8700XENJK1" ROM, andthe day after I got the NoDo through Zune.
So no "blocking" of updates here in Denmark on "3"
UPDATE: Sorry, I've misread your ROM-version
So, what is the real difference between these firmware versions:
I8700XXJK1 - DBT
I8700XXJK1 - XEN
I8700XXJK1 - BSE
Coming from Germany I just flashed the DBT and got the pre-NoDo but
NO NODO

Would you be so kind and let us know which unbranded code to use or how to get that?
Changing carrier code does *not* force the update down, been there and done that.
However if your gullible to try, unbranded code is 000-88

Thanks for that mate, and how can I fix this in the registry? I guess I have to unlock the device again.....but don't want to do this anymore.
I just want to receive the NoDo Update with my - now unbranded - WP7 !!!
Yep, you need to unlock the device and modify the registry settings, however if you've flashed with any of the unbranded ROMs on samfirmware, it'll already be sitting on 000-88.

Thanks, didnt know that the roms available at samfirmware are set to that code. Good news for me.
Many thanks for these informations. I flashed my Omnia 7 with the I8700XXJK1 - DBT ROM and can confirm that the registry setting is set to 000-88.
But the Problem is that I still receive no NoDo and I am getting nervous.....
Updated it before with Chevron, then flashed it down to the Original Samsung I8700XXJK1 - DBT...7004
Now I am on 7008 hanging......
Anything went wrong?
The NoDo update seems to be selective, the way it selects is unknown, if you don't get it immediately, don't worry about it, it'll eventually come your way. Theres no method I've found in forcing the update down (even the zune timing trick seems a bit of a hoax to me).
I've contacted my Samsung Support Centre and I'm querying what unbranded UK firmware they have and whether its preloaded with NoDo. They will probably get back to me within the week.
read what I said, the 3 times are for your benefit, update via the way I said no Zune, cheers

This is the most useful thing anyone has ever said, I'll hold on for the moment. Please let us know what's going on with the UK unbranded firmware, thankyou.

Unbranded 16GB Omnia 7 and no Mango till now

I have samsung omnia 7 16GB unbranded i bought it from expansys
and till now i didn't get Mango update
any one could help
Regards
Lies and a different battery cover?
I dunno the whole system seems buggered - I have an 8GB "3" branded Omnia 7, and I received the updates the day it came out
Its getting rolled slowly, it can take up to 24 days to reach everyone. Google force update trick to get it to install faster
Sent from my OMNIA7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Try the Unofficial Way
You probably won't get the update until a few weeks because it's still in the distribution phase which could, or could not, take forever.
There is a trick that everyone's been doing though:
1. Connect your phone to your PC and launch Zune.
2. Go to your phone's settings from there, and click the 'Update' tab.
3. Then click on any other tab, and once again click on the Update tab.
4. This is the tricky part...right after you click the 'Update' tab for the second time, wait exactly from 2 to 3 seconds and then disconnect your PC from internet. You must do that before you get the 'No Updates Found' screen.
If you suceed, you should wait for about 20 seconds and then you will find an available update.
5. Reconnect to the internet, start your update, and voila.
thx for help
i try this unofficial way and it work with me and install the first update 7.0.4
but while installing 7.10 it give me error and the phone restart and stuck with samsung omnia 7 logo
i made hard reset for the phone it restore again to old software
but form this time every time i restart the phone it stuck with omnia 7 logo and i have to remove the battery and insert it again to load the os

I have 16GB unlocked and unbranded version as well and i have no mango yet either. I read elsewhere here that if you do the "trick" download using Zune you don't get the proper update for the Omnai because there is a Samsung firmware update as well that is missing. I will wait for a few weeks max to see if I can get via Zune. Will let you know when I get it.
@egyfox85:
Try to flash your device with a RTM ROM (or Nodo rom, but you cant use then the Chevron Jailbreak), because your Omnia 7 firmware is damaged.
Then try update to Mango..
Greetings.

I'm in a similar position as you where I have a 16gb Omnia 7. I actually forced my device but restored it back to NoDo soon after realising my firmware version was incorrect. I just hope me forcing it doesn't hinder my chance of getting Mango - does anyone know whether this could be an issue or not?
I have an unbranded omnia 7 16gb from tmobile germany (no carrier branding shown when turned on the phone). I forced update to mango but received an error 80180048 and now I want to reflash it back to its original rom to re-do updates to nodo and just wait for offical release. Does anyone know what the original rom is?
I was in the same situation. I made dozens of attempts to update, but only succeeded by reverting to a pre nodo rom, and allowing updates as far as Zune would go. After this, the phone updated all the way through to Mango using the network pull trick without issue. So if you are willing to wipe the phone completely, this might be the way.
I started at Samsung Omnia 7 Firmware XXJL3 Retail UK.
I've been using Mango since the day it first rolled out on my 16GB Omnia 7 from expansys UK.
Used the forced update, got the lastet OEM updated firmware with it too
now my phone stuck at start up Omnia 7 logo and i reflash it with firmware I8700XXKC1 after i finish it updated to 7.392 but also no mango
this should be UK rom
any idea about this too

Nice one mate and congratulations (I'm jealous lol) - I'm checking mine everyday but have had no luck so far, guess I'll just have to be patient. Just for info, is your phone a German model, (mine is but its still unlocked/unbranded). I ordered mine from eBay assuming it was a UK model but it wasn't - it updated to NoDo fine a while back...

yip, mine is a German model with 16GB (that's why I bought from there). But hey, horror stories.... I couldn't update NOW so I deleted it thinking that the old version was stopping the new version from downloading. Then I couldnt get it at all so I tried to go back to NODO and couldnt restore. Phone hung on the update connection . Reinstalled KC1 using WP7 installer and got back to NODO and did a force install (trick) to get back to Mango. And still I cannot update NOW; must be a Sammy problem. You should try the "force Zune trick" to get the Mango update pal..
Running 16 GB unbranded Omnia 7 purchased from ebay.de on Swisscom in CH and tried Zune update for 1/2 hour ago .... & got the regular update to Mango (not forced). Will post later if everything went well.... Regz from CH

Aaah,nah I already forced it and wasn't happy as the firmware was completely wrong, the reason I reverted back to NoDo was because of that issue. On a positive note, I sent a tweet to windowsphonehelp (or whatever they're called) and they responded back saying if you've forced it and go back to NoDo it shouldn't cause an issue - so, when Mango does officially come out for these handsets, I should get it with no issues. Here's hoping that happens sometime soon as I'm getting quite fed up - all my mates and even my brother are fully mango'd

I've been having loads of issues with it. I had no problems whatsoever on NoDo.
Slooooow boot ups. (sometimes fast sometimes takes a couple of mins)
Sometimes if i switch it off and on it locks up and just displays the battery indicator. No home screen. (need to pull the battery)
Problems with the data connection dying requiring a soft reset of the phone to re-enable. (this is a MAJOR issue)
Started having bluetooth issues - it wont discover anything sometimes. (seems to work if i switch on WiFi as well. wtf?)
Info slow to appear on lock screen.
Keyboard closes itself randomly (known issue i see)
Really un-impressed with Mango. I've just hard reset my device so will see if that helps at all.

For your info after the Zune tric install here are my stats!!
FW 2424.11.8.5
HW3.15.0.4
Radio SW 2424.11.7.2
Radio HW 0.0.0.800
Bootloader 5.8.1.9
So my specs are close to most others on here so I dont think I will force back to NODO to wait for official Mango. My phone is working 100% on every level right now so i will leave well enough alone for now!!
Let me know when you get the official release and your stats when installed.
