I780 xfhd1 - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hello
I bought my phone in Romania, version XFHD1, and i would like to know if i can use the hxd editor to upgrade to win 6.1 official uk version or any english version of the windows.....
P.s. my OS is Vista and win7 so mirage updater solution is out....
P.S.2 the phoe is unlocked (it's not branded)
no1 ?
So.. is there no way to do the upgrade ?

you can still use mirage....on windows 7. You need to download the usb drivers and install it on your comp....its quite simple! look around, you'll find it...search for usb vista drivers i780.
Of course, the other route is hex editing the original installer file you can download from samsung. The fun lies in using custom roms....so its time you get ur rig setup to use mirage!
cheers

thanks for the confirmation..i installed win 6.1 on my i780. After i'll get bored with it i'll search for a custom rom that fits my needs

T Mobile PPC unlock.

I have wallaby ppc with
ROM version : 3.14.40.eng
ROM date : 11/26/02
Radio version : 6.18
Protocol version 324e4
This is locked to T mobile. I want to unlock it. I have usb cable with me. I downloaded xdaunlock.exe & saved it in my PPC with help of active sync. I opened the soft in PPC it says cannot get codes. I think this version of my PPC is too low. WHat am i suppose to do now? Should I upgrade? if i have to upgrade please tell how to upgrade or is there any old soft to unlock this? Please help me.
You should upgrade to the xda-developers special edition ROM
xdaunlock requires the wmodem application, which isn't included in your ROM-Version.
Or you can alos cook your own rom. Best choice for unlocking would be 3.17.03

You do not need any Linux on your machine.
The special Rom comes in exe format and if you cook your own, you can choose between exe-Format for easy-Flashing or nb1/nbf-Format for secure flashing.
You find Special Edition ROM here:

and a Rom kitchen here:

Thanks a lot again. I have stared downloding the special edition rpm now. Is it ok if I run it in the Windows98 meachine? Should I transfer the full 15mb soft into the PPC? I think i am asking u a stupid question but i am not too familiar with these PPC. Does this works only in WIN XP or WIN 98 is ok?
I think win 98 should be ok.
It just requires a working active sync connection (I never tried this under win 98)
You don't have to transfer the file to your PPC.
Unzip the file, so that you get the real exe-file, run it on your PC and follow he instructions....
Stefan
I will try it out in an hour & post the results.
Thanks a lot. I unlocked my ppc without any problem. Thank U very much.

O2 xda Orbit question

Hi there! Can anyone tell me what I should to to change the language of the phone. It's german now and i would like to change it to english. And also, is there a way to remove all the O2 stuff from the menus?
Thanks
If you simply want the original English O2 WM5 setup then:
Download the files on this thread and follow the instructions to temporarily CID unlock the device: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403 WARNING this may not work with Windows Vista, use Windows XP!
Download and run the original O2 ROM installer from post 13 on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314866&page=2
Thanks MaskedMarauder... Can you please tell me which programs I need on my PC to do all of this? Do I need anything except the stuff from the original CD? Also can I use this ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=318835
You don't need the CD as long as you already have the latest version of Activesync installed, just the CID unlocker (download from the link I gave above) and a ROM image to flash. The B&B 3.7 will work fine if that is what you want.
Hi I did everything that was said in the forum but at the end of the update, there was an error which said that the model of the phone is not suitable or something... Can you please provide me with a more easy and clearly explained way of changing the language of the Windows Mobile on my XDA Orbit.
Thank you

hi dinko,
you can start the changing by installing a full rom called "mirage PDXHH1" (wm 6.0); it's a 128 dpi, english naturally, and it isn't really very recent.
after then you can decide to install an official upgrade (wm 6.1) by using the link of samsung at http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/i780/index.jsp or by a cooked rom. in this second way you must have XP and you need:
1. the mirage software http://rapidshare.com/files/110283700/Mirage_LV_v1.8.rar
2. driver samsung http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...26233621765_MCCI_WHQL_Modem_Driver_4.38.5.exe
3. install activesync
bye
I tried to go at http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/i780/index.jsp before updating my phone. I entered UK as country, XP as windows version and then I entered PDXHH1 which is the version you described. It says that version if wrong

PDXHL2.If you search on this forum you'll find the official updater, to use it just flash your pda part with a hl2 based rom via mirage and than run the official updater.
i already have PDA ROM PDXHL2 but when I try to update with official updater it says incorrect version. Btw, my PHONE ROM is DXHH1.
Any idea?
Are you using the hl2 updater or another official updater?

if you have a dxhh1 and you want to install a pda part L2 (?) you have to flash with "mirage" only . open this sw, click on "pda" button and choose the rom you have to install.
bye
problem solved.
i was using bv official updater
now i downloaded hl2 and it is fine.

[Q] Is there another OS for P3300

I have P3300 with original windows mobile but I would like to update in some other OS, like windows phone 7 or andoir that works perfectly. Becouse I had downloaded android but it's very slow and I wasn't vibrator, sound, wireless. I don't know mabe I must download a drivers for android system that works everything perfectly.
...
as far as i know, android is very buggy.
wm7 will not and cannot run on the artemis/p3300.
however if you want wm6.5 or 6.1 the artemis can be flashed to this..
firstly you will need USPL 1.11.cmon
(click it in my signature to download it)
(i have put a tutorial inside the download)
once you have done USPL you can flash any rom to the artemis..
i would recomend andrew82's rom but that wm6.1..
if you want wm6.5 i would recomend babeluts rom..

Windows Mobile 6.1 or 6.5 Language

I've been searching for quite a while now to find a clean version of Windows Mobile 6.1 with the dutch/netherlands language on it.
So my question is where can I find it somewhere for the Samsung Omnia I-900
I know its an old phone I use to mess with it and put on WM 6.5 but I can't seem to find the dutch/netherland language for it? Maybe if someone can help me out on this problem I might not have to change the OS.
My goal is to convert this phone to a music player since I now own a blackberry and it only came with 1g onboard so I thought I'd use my samsung for music since it has 8gb
Thank you
Have you tried the official Rom updates? They can be found on: http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/omnia/index.jsp
Also, on Modaco they posted the link to the last know Dutch ROM for the omnia and a workaround to install it.
The ROM is at : http://nl.samsungmobile.com/pmgmvst.do?visitgbn=10913155&coflag=0
And the solution on how to install at http://www.modaco.com/content/i9x0-...evert-the-i900-back-to-standard-samsung-rom/#
Do it at your own risk.
Yes I've found that site but I downloaded a WM 6.5 from this forum, and when I go to the version and enter it it says it's not correct.
And I don't know which version I have to enter to get the 6.5 or 6.1 dutch version
Thanks bsinclair thats what I need!
But now I don't understand what he means with this:
Solution:
- disassemble original rom with i900 executer (latest version!)
- assemble your disassembeled files back to an exe with i900 executer
As you may have noticed I'm not a native speaker, does he mean to connect the phone trough usb and delete all the folders by yourself and after that execute the executer?
As far as I understood, this is an unpack for the ROM file. See here:
http://www.modaco.com/content/i900-general-omnia-rom-discussion/286865/executor/
It seems that, if you unpack and pack again, the incorrect software version crap is gone.
Nevertheless, I would say it is better if you register there and ask the author of the post, he will know more than anyone else.
