Ok, I've read every forum from here all the way to modaco and I'm still unable to flash my rom. I did everything right down to a T as far as walk throughs, but Octans is not detecting my phone.
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
I've changed the compatibility on Octans to XP SP3 and still no go
I'm running windows mobile 6.5 professional on the Omnia I920.
I really want to install Yardi's Custom Rom on my device but I'm starting to lose hope!
Please can someone help me out. I don't know what other info to put on here.
I installed VMWare 7 Workstation on my laptop. I also installed windows xp as a guest system.
So is there anyone who knows what I need to grab without going to modaco, because I am signed up with them, but it doesn't let me download anything that anyone posts as links. I have tried but have successfully failed.
I do plan on updating my xp to sp3 but I need to know everything I need to get my omnia i920 flashed to a kick butt rom.
Thanks in advance to everyone who can help.
What you need is available on modaco unfortunately.
Go here and read this thread www . modaco.com/content/i8000-omnia-ii-gsm-rom-discussion/296019/flashing-using-64bit-windows-7/
I have attached the drivers you need to install. It is not an easy task but once it's done it's done. If you need help I'll try to help you, but please read the thread first.

Actually I got it working on windows xp sp3 installed on vmware...and have flashed my phone prob twenty times now lol. Only issue I have now is I was using Ninja's rom but I couldn't receive picture messages under it. So I flashed back to stock. Well I hate stock. Too much bloatware. I liked your rom AMD but it had some programs that I didn't want on there..and some that I did want on there. Cooking a rom for myself is impossible I've tried every direction on this site and modaco's but no luck.
Anyway I can get you to cook me a custom rom with some stuff taken off and some stuff added in?
Sure. Give me a list.
I downloaded your new rom...I like how it looks. Ok, if you could base the rom off your current release but take off the following if you can:
Bing, Windows Live, Ferrari GT Evolution, Esmertec Jbed (don't even know what i can use that for lol), Pim Backup, O2 Flash, Sktools, and within office mobile can you delete all but word mobile?
I would like to have the bubble breaker game added back in, along with the fm radio, and since I am really not good at figuring things out yet, I love titanium is there a way to get it to work on your rom? And is it easy to put themes on here too? I tried some themes called colored lighting and it crashed the rom on ninja's.
Otherwise I am good ha ha. Thanks for trying to do this, sure wish I could figure out how to cook...i don't think it'll ever happen But I like your roms best outta Ninja's and Yardi. Yardi would be good, but she took the samsung keyboard out among other stuff I can't remember ha ha.
Thanks again. Can't wait to try it out!
I've built a LITE rom if you are interested in trying it before I release it.
also what is colored lightning? got a cab for it?
is the lite rom just a base rom minus the stuff you added to current version you have out? I would love to try it out colored lightning...is a theme from someone I don't have the cab anymore but I do have bluewave now...i found it here on xda...trying to find it for you
here is the link I don't know how to attach cab yet on here

My Lite rom has many deletions. I have also deleted the samsung settings.
The titanium does work, are you looking for chome as well?
does your lite rom still have the samsung keyboard though. I really don't know much about chome..i know it modifies the titanium panels...so I guess that is a good thing to have as well
here is beta

It might just be me, but I'd never flash a phone thru VMWare, Unless of course you want to brick your phone.
Thank you so much. VmWare Workstation 7 is awesome. I installed windows xp sp3 on it...and it runs just like my windows 7 hp 64...only it runs on the desktop. It was much easier to flash thru that then through windows 7. I haven't bricked it yet thank goodness...never had any problems. I've flashed from yardi to your roms to ninja's...about 20 times already ha ha. Now i'm gonna check your lite rom out thank you so much for doing all this, I have been playing with your rom and it's darn new perfect except for the software I don't need..so I'll let ya kno what I think about your lite rom here in about 10 min or so
Ok, just tested your lite rom...looks good but I noticed you don't have the samsung keyboard in it Is there a cab available to put the xt9 keyboard back on...other than that I tested the mms and it worked..i gotta run through other tests but dude it looks sweet Let me know where I can get or how i can get samsung keyboard back on it.
Thanks again!
I hate to be such a pain about the rom...but I don't think the lite rom is going to work for me...I like almost all of the samsung stuff but I hate the verizon bloatware. I do like omarket, that is a neat app. I'm reflashing back to your other new release and if you get a chance to make a rom off it without the stuff i mentioned earlier and keeping the samsung keyboard and other stuff on it...it would be much appreciated. I would cook it myself but that would prob be the end of my phone ha ha.
I do like having 300mb free in the programs that was nice...sorry to keep bothering you.
I've been working on the Lite rom for a while, I'll get to the Base rom in a little while.
ok sounds great just let me know when you have one available for me to try. I do much appreciate it.
hacked up my lastest rom per your request. Let me know if it fits what your looking for.

awesome. going to give it a whirl here in about an hr. thank you so very much!
Hi all,
I have just aquired my first Android (aka HTC Desire) after becoming all to familiar with Windows mobile!
My phone is from vodaphone with Android 2.1 and bootloader .80 version. I am unsure if it is branded but i suspect that it is as there is as vodaphone scene amongst the installed htc scenes although there dosn't appear to be anything else 'vodaphone' on the handset.
I have trailed through many forums (mostly this one) but haven't been able to provide wholly satisfactory answers to my questions and was hoping some kind sole would take the time to assist me for which i would be eternally greatful!:
Here goes:
My object is to flash my device with Froyo with the sense ui embedded which i have allready seen.
1. Is my phone actually branded and, if so, do i have to address this before i can continue. If the answer is yes, could somebody point me in the right direction?
2. Do i need to root my device to install Froyo and, if so, again could somebody please point me in the right direction(bootloader .80)
3. Assuming success, can somebody point me to where and how i can locate and install the best version of Froyo with embedded htc sense for my device.
If this is impossible with my device, i would appreciate someone in the know to break the sad news to me and i will wait (with my allready full Desire) for Vodaphone to send me my Froyo update! (perhaps for Christmas if that's not too optimistic.
1) is it branded? if its issued by vodaphone, chances are it is.
To root branded devices, you'll need a goldcard, follow this link (its specific for htc desire) :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6710085&postcount=3
2) to install froyo BEFORE the official release , yes you'll need to root it.
It's quite an easy process, took me under a minute using a one-click program.
Rooting guide :

3) best version of froyo with sense ... hmm
i'm using DeVillianRom but that's just my opinion of course
all roms can be found here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=628
hope this helps, make sure you check the HTC desire section regularly
Thanks jdebunt for your prompt reply.
I will be trying this out tomorrow morning and i am very grateful for your time and help.
After a year of 'messing' with windows mobile i was actually able to assist people with various problems! I have had an Android for one week now and have found this forum invaluable for understanding this excellent (almost) device.
I say almost as, after researching the Android platform, i failed to notice the lack of embedded apps2sd (until Froyo) which i think is a critical ommission.
Sorry to waffle on and thanks again and i will report back as to how it goes.
(One week old.....bricked???)
no problem, glad i could help
i do indeed rejoice at the sight of installing apps on SD because of the 2.2 roms, tho sometimes the apps load very slow...but that'll be sorted soon probably
if there's anything else, don't hesitate to drop a PM
I need some help. I wasn't sure what do I need to install the android on hd2? I know Froyo 2.2 is the latest update for Android. But do I need to put some special rom in it or what? HSPL? SPL? I don't even know what are these. Can anyone just make a short simple instruction how to install android on hd2?
instant gratification is why everything sucks. work for your knowledge read a little bit and you'll see that other people have put hundreds of articles just for us. search and you'll find them even quicker. i can't tell you how many times they're posted and re posted everywhere.
if you're going to be on a forum at least learn how to use it this is just a waste.
Try Your luck there:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732380
But be sure You have the knowledge and ability to setup Your HD2 newly if You crash it. It took me an entire night stuck with the Radio-flash which corrupted my HD2 and I had to go back to stock-ROM without Froyo running.
Hey Guys,
Sorry for this post already ha. I am not familiar with this phone i am trying to help my brother out. The wiki and a lot of general info seems fairly outdated. Is this all still the most efficient way of doing things? I have not played around with the phone yet so i am going to ask some probably dumb questions. I have an SGS phone which everything seems much easier on.
The phone i need help with is the Mytouch3g 3.5mm (I believe this is the 32A from what i have read)
My question is after rooting can i use rom manager for recovery and to put a new rom on preferably the cyanogen froyo rom. I believe is listed.
If not is there any chance someone could walk me through the process. I have read up but I have not seen a step by step to getting a Rom fully installed and in the rom areas i see a lot about changing radio and such stuff.
If i could get a PM or post or even link to where i am referring to that would be great. Also how does one go about wiping this device before changing mess. Alright thank you so much for your time.
Hi,
First off, apologies if this question has been asked before! I've been searching the forum/web for days trying to find a full guide to help me upgrade so that I don't brick my tablet as I'm a bit nervous about it (I've only done this once before).
Does anyone have/Can anyone point me towards a guide that will help me go from Taboonay 2.2 to Taboonay 3.2 (or to any other ICS ROM)?
I have the media (A500-b6.zip and 3G-9.img which I believe is the Kernel), but I have no idea where to start. I've seen Civs guide, but I'm not sure if that applies to me.
Also happy to take recomendations on ROMS (I've chosen Taboonay because I had 2.2 with the my last and only previous manual flash but I know Vache has now unfortunately stopped developing)
Any help is much appreciated, I really want to get a new ICS ROM on there but want to make sure I dont end up with a really expensive and shiny door stopn as a result!
Thanks in advance.
