My Omnia 7 still doesn't support the AllShare app, and won't connect to Wifi reliably when mobile data is enabled, yet as I understand it there has been a Samsung update around for a while which fixes these issues? My phone is a German T-Mobile device, and whilst I've got 8107 on there the rest I think is quite old:
OS: 7.10.8107.79
Firmware: 2424.11.9.4
Hardware: 3.15.0.4
Radio software: 2424.11.9.1
Radio hardware: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader: 5.9.3.0
Is there any way of getting the Samsung updates without having to use Zune and waiting for T Mobile to provide it? Or would my only option be to flash a generic ROM?
Thanks
Use CAB sender (search for it)

your Firmware: 2424.11.9.4 is actuall and newest from T Mobile. The newest Firmware of free carrier, unbranded devices is 2424.11.11.2 (i8700xxkk2) - with compass and allShare support. to update over cab sender tool but your Bootloader: 5.9.3.0 is not compatible with it or other Firmware. The only chance is to Flash a unbranded ROM and to update it to OS: 7.10.8107.79 (2 hour work ) or but you flash a new tango 8773 ROM with 11.11.2 Firmware, like my mi7ROM or from ceesheim or but stay still on it
Thanks for the replies... I'll probably stick with what I have then.

You could try the unbrand hack if you're unlocked.
I have a problem. I had the Mango Beta 1 on my phone. Yesterday I flashed it back to the Pre Nodo Rom. But when I press now the update button zune says, that my focus is already on the newest version but it shows 7.0(7008 ). I cannot use the "force mango" method when i have not installed the latest wp7 update.
I use mango for a few days.
Samsung Omnia7 16GB from t-mo.de store (the price was 199 euro in august)
I flash over it UK Retail ROM , and upgraded it up to mango via Zune (forcing)
Few days everything was OK. But now i can't install any app from marketplace.
Other features working fine. What i should do?
The error text: "The Windows Live ID Service is unavailable at this moment. Try again later".
installed ROM: Samsung Omnia 7 Firmware XXJL3 RETAIL UNITED KINGDOM
and upgraded to mango:

Hi,
I have some problems with my unbranded Omnia 7 device:
-digital compass doesn't work
-no hidden wifi handler
-connection problems during calls
I think that this problems are due to the firmware version and drivers (very old).
This is my situation:
PDA: I8700XXJK1
PHONE: I8700XXKB2
CSSC: I8700DBTJK1
SO: 7.10.7720.68
Firmware: 2424.10.11.1
Hardware: 3.15.0.4
Radio SW: 2424.11.2.2
Radio HW: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader: 5.2.1.4
SOC: 0.36.2.0
I have tried to solve these problems with a hard reset and restoring old backup... but nothing has changed.
Well, at least you're not alone having ancient firmware.
I've got
Firmware: 2424.11.1.1
Radio SW: 2424.11.1.1
Bootloader: 4.1.0.5
I have problems with bluetooth connectivity which got introduced immediately after an upgrade. My immediate reaction was to suspect a firmware/software incompability, and thought everything would be corrected with a firmware upgrade (which seems to take forever to appear). My phone is unbranded, seems to be a bit unclear if and when these devices will have firmare upgrade... How about yours... unbranded?
Hi,
thank for your replay.
Yes, I'have a unbranded phone from Germany.
PDA: I8700XXJK1
PHONE: I8700XXKB2
CSSC: I8700DBTJK1
I want to try to send it to the samsung assistance and say to them: " Hei, my digital compass doesn't work! please fix it with a firmware/driver update! "
I have a Samsung Omnia 7. But the compass is not working. I have updated my phone through Zune, to Windows Phone 7.5.
I have one problem: the compass is not working. With Google I found some people with the same problem, the all talking about the this: 2424.10.11.1 (the firmware).
Is this firmware outdated and how can I get newer one, which maybe solve the compass problem...
OS version: 7.10.7740.16
Firmware revision number: 2424.10.11.1
Hardware revision number: 3.15.0.4
Radio software version: 2424.11.9.1
Radio hardware version: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader version: 5.9.0.6
Chip SOC version: 0.36.2.0
mine is fine, but sometime it has interference and even after successfully calibrated it still point to the wrong direction
My firmware :
OS version: 7.10.7740.16
Firmware revision number: 2424.11.11.1
Hardware revision number: 3.15.0.4
Radio software version: 2424.11.9.1
Radio hardware version: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader version: 5.11.0.3
Chip SOC version: 0.36.2.0
PDA : I8700XXKK1
Phone : I8700XXKI1
CSC : I8700XECKK1
And the Compass is ok.
But I've no idea how to force the firmware update, but i give you the last firmware revison number, you maybe can find info with that.
Edit : You can read this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358576
Have you ever updated your radio ROM without updating the firmware? Well, I did. I was on JJ6 (10.10.6) originally, then somewhere after NoDo I updated the radio to KC1, but not the firmware as I didn't want my windows to be reset. Unfortunately, this meant that the firmware stayed at JJ6 after all the subsequent windows updates. And I had the same problem - the compass didn't work.
I just completely reflashed my phone to JK1 (10.11.1) using the firmware that can be found on samfirmware.com, and then went to the whole update process. Now, I'm at:
OS 7.10.7740.16
Firmware 2424.11.9.2
Hardware 3.15.0.4
Radio Software 2424.11.9.1
Radio Hardware 0.0.0.800
Bootloader 5.9.0.6
Chip SOC 0.36.2.0
And the compass is working now!
