[Solution] Update Samsung Omnia II
Method 1: By Yourself
1) Download New PC Studio from Samsung's website:
Link: downloadcenter[dot]samsung[dot]com/content/SW/201002/20100210183453156/New_PC_Studio_1.4.0.IL2.exe
*NOTE: REPLACE the [dot] with .
2) Install and launch NPS
*NOTE: YOU MUST BE RUNNING XP/VISTA TO USE. WINDOWS 7 IS NOT SUPPORTED
3) Connect your device via USB, make sure ActiveSync is already installed, ensure that NPS detects your phone.
*NOTE: IF YOU HAVE LOST/MISPLACED YOUR USB CABLE, A STANDARD MICRO USB CABLE SHOULD DO.
At the bottom right hand corner, there is a 'Upgrade' Button. Click on it. It will launch a window in NPS. Select your phone and click Check For Updates. If there are upgrades available, it should prompt you whether you want to install the upgrade. From here, follow the instructions onscreen.
If your phone errors during installation, it will boot into recovery. Reconnect the phone to the computer. It will not be recognized by NPS yet. Once again click the 'Update' Button and instead of Checking for Updates, click Recovery.
Method 2: At a Service Center
If your phone is still under warranty, you can bring the phone to a service center for upgrade. It should take ~30min for them to do that, depending on the number of customers they are serving. This way if anything goes wrong it isn't your fault.
I think Samsung disable the update function in their phones as they wanted people to flash only Samsung-Approved ROMs from their application
Besides, i was also facing this problem, so GOOD LUCK!
HOPE THIS WORKS FOR YOU

I just tried to update on my i8000 - worked fine, but:
a) it lasted a few minutes
b) no updates available now.

Unlocking Omnia 7 after update

Hi all
I dont know if this is already around but i thought i would share with everyone.
So recently i updated my First Gen Omnia 7 to the latest update which then included the KK2 by samsung which blocked interop unlock.
Some people have had results restoring back and trying windowsbreak again, and some people have had no luck with this way.
I have had a result doing this way
1) Restore back as far as possible.
2) Developer unlock your phone. Search google as you can do this for free (it takes about 30-40 minutes).
3) Download and Install Windows Phone Device Manager & Windows Phone SDK 7.1
4) Using "Windows Phone Developer Registration" that comes with Windows Phone SDK 7.1, plug your phone in and sign into your windows live account that you registered with AppHub. Click Register and your phone is now registered
5) Now open Windows Phone Device Manager with your phone plugged in, this will now install "touchxperience" and you can now browse certain files, install apps etc.
6) Download http://www.wp7roottools.com/index.php/downloads/doc_download/2-samsung-1st-generation-interop-unlock. If you click Open when this has finshed downloading it will ask if you want to install. Click install and hopefully this will now install on your phone.
7) Once this has done, on your phone, go to dial a number and input "##634#" then on the next screen input " *#9908# ". This should bring up GPRS Manager , scroll down and it should say "Heathcliff73 Interop Unlock" click on this and click Save.
8) Reboot phone and You are now Interop Unlocked. Install Window root tools and what ever you want now.
If your 3G settings are messed up download and install this http://www.wp7roottools.com/index.php/downloads/doc_download/3-repair-3g-for-samsung
Enjoy
If this guide is already out there or has already been mentioned then sorry i havent come across it but i thought i would share my experience
Big Thanks to HeathCliff for his tools
I take no responsibilty in what might happen to your phone.

Lumia 950XL Prototype

I have a Lumia 950XL prototype I got recently, but it's stuck on version 10586.164
When looking for updates says it is up to date, already tried it (WDRT) even if you messed up the product code
unsuccessfully
Can someone help me? He has the boot unlocked
(WDRT Error) PACKAGE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THIS PHONE With the original product code
Firmware: 01078.00048.16135.36002
Original product code: 059W5J6
PROTO

you tried Interop Unlock and registry change?

3.Go to the app bar, then choose x50 series unlock. You will receive an error about the acer service not running. That's ok for now. Click step 1 and it will tell you to install the acer system service and copy some files. To install the acer system service, use iutool [rs and newer builds,this version is essential,old versions will probably not work] (can be found here. thanks @Wack0Distractor ).
iutool install https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68459157&postcount=13
run this command as administrator
iutool -v -p "path to the file acer.service.acersystemservice.spkg"
if you receive error 0x80070490, disconnect your phone from usb, go to control panel on your pc, devices and printers, find your windows phone and remove device. reconnect the usb to your phone,and after it reinstalls the drivers automatically, run iutool command above again.
if you receive error 0x8024a110, your phone should reboot to the gears UI in a minute. if not, run the command again. if it still doesnt auto reboot, manually reboot your phone. It should reboot into the gears UI, then back into the OS. if it still fails and doest show gears, give you phone a rest for 5-10 minutes and retry(usually needed after a new rom flash).
4.When you're back in the phone OS, copy newndtksvc.dll and ndtksvc.dll to your documents folder on your phone through USB
5.Go to the app bar, then choose x50 series unlock. You should no longer receive the error about the acer service. Now click step 2 and follow the rest of the instructions from the app.
6.If you've taken the silent extras/advanced+info update, or updated that app manually, be sure to choose the option "Restore NDTK 950/XL" in the "x50 series unlock" page and reboot to regain access to the elevated features. It basically means if it suddenly stops working, apply this setting.

hi, can you boot in masstoragemode and dump few partitions?
before update, make full dump via win32diskimager

If you can have your phone recognized by PC in any mode, there's a spark of hope, but be warned that I take no responsibility for any damage that may occur (and it may occur since you are installing a software that's made for final products on a prototype):
I strongly recommend you to perform a full ROM backup if possible to be able to get back to this version if things go horribly wrong. If you can't do this, you may consider enrolling in Windows Insider program (which may allow you to get new builds), or perform a software RM Code change - most recommended- (check here: thewincentral.com/get-windows-10-mobile-redstone-on-older-lumias-using-an-app-now-uses-same-mod/)
You might not find a ROM corresponding exactly to that product code (because it's a prototype) on the internet, but you can download any Lumia 950 XL Firmware you'd like (check this: www . lumiafirmware.com/ser/RM-1085).
Once you've downloaded all firmware files, use the following tool to flash the firmware onto your device: androidmtk.com / use-windows-phone-image-designer-tool

Since the only constructive response was "Reset your PC" without telling you how to do so even though you say "Settings and Windows 10 apps not opening", I will do that person one better and actually give you instructions for resetting.
Reboot your machine, at the login screen, instead of typing your password or PIN, hold shift and while holding shift press Restart from the Login screen (click the power button and choose Restart). Continue holding shift and it will bring you into the Windows Recovery Environment. Choose Troubleshooting, Reset This PC.
@ahmadus The user wouldn't be able to reset his PC without getting into Recovery Environment. As the Reset this PC function is exposed through the settings app that OP says does not open. In this case, the user may not know how to enter the Recovery Environment from alternative means. If you're going to provide help, actually provide constructive help.

@ShadowEO I thought reset pc is the easiest thing to do on windows 10.

It is, but it's only easy if you can access the Recovery Environment to start the process. The good news is that you can start the process using a Windows 10 Installation disc (either USB or DVD) by choosing "Repair your computer" instead of "Install" when the installer starts up.

Latest Version
Try this version: http://www.softolite.com/windows-10-lite/
This is the official trial version with the latest build.

Wrong, you should ONLY download media from sources you trust, such as the official Windows 10 media creation tool or ISOs available at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10, THIS is the official URL to download Windows installation media. Also @CarlRock, all versions of Windows are trials until they're licensed, that blog is not the official source of ANYTHING Windows related.
You should also NEVER use a "lite" version of Windows unless you yourself built it, or you understand both what was removed and the consequences for removing that Windows component. Many users on the Windows subreddit go removing components without a full understanding of what they do or their full purpose in the OS, then come and complain that the system isn't working right.
Just use Windows as it was meant to be used. If you don't need a feature, don't configure it, or just plain don't use it. Dont just eviscerate it from the system without a thought to stability.

Lumia 950 won't go on developer mode.

Hello everyone,
Does anyone know how to get the Lumia 950 on developer mode? I tried turning on developer mode in the "For developers" section of update and security, but it kept reverting back to Windows store apps. The machine was originally an enterprise device which was graciously given to me, so I feel like that might be the issue. Also, I tried updating the machine from 1703 to 1709 to no avail (the phone kept saying it was up to date). I then tried to flash an FFU from the lumiafirmware.com website to update the machine from 1703 to 1709, which didn't work because for some reason, the Windows Phone Image Designer doesn't want to load, (after I click the start.bat, it brings up an unhandled exception in CMD). Can someone please help me understand what I am doing wrong with this device and how to fix it? I'm mostly frustrated about the device not wanting to on developer mode and the device's refusal to update.
Specs:
Windows 10 Mobile 1703
3 GB RAM
16GB Storage
OS Build: 10.0.16200.1004.rs_onecore_dep_inter.20170518-1649
Firmware revision number: 01078.00053.16200.0

Thanks.
