Many of us has the issue of not being able to flash the Omnia in Windows 7.

Below is the solution.

1.  Download Windows 7 Flash Pack - Size 1.3 MB

2.  Open the folder " Samsung Modem Vista " then click Setup

3.  Download Any (cooked) ROM - Look Here

4.  Disassemble ROM with i900_executor



5.  Right hand click ( USDL GrandPrix ) Then run as administrator



6.  Select GRANDPRIX LV IMAGE as the profile

7.  Load LOADER, PDA and CSC (some ROMs don't have CSC - it's ok...leave blank)

8.  Disable START DOWNLOAD IMMEDIATELY

9.  Connect the phone.

10. Click Detect

11. Restart phone.

12. It will search for drivers during the first time (like MODEM DRIVER in XP).

13. If the driver’s didn't find immediately, restart phone few times until it finds it.

14. Repeat steps 11-13 until GRANDPRIX shows phone found

15. When it comes up as found, press START DOWNLOADING

16. Phone will reboot, and when the omnia logo comes up again
press START DOWNLOADING one more time

17. Sit back and wait for a nice cooked 6.5 rom / or modified 6.1 rom

Using custom ROMs may have risks attached to it, and can be dangerous. Proceed with caution

Hi guys!first of all,i wanna tell you,that i have succesfull flashed my omnia i900 2 times(thank of "smile",i could'n't done it without his help),in windows 7 by his indication.
i am actually runnin' the latest firmware m2md by ryrzy.From my opinion all that kind of cooked rom are not enough good because,from all that i,ve tried,there is at least one thing that is not  going well with your phone.i appreciate the effort of this guys who make them,but beside the graphic part,the rest of the phone's functions some of them not working well,some others not working at all.
A few monts ago i flashed my phone with the md2d rom by ryrzy and for a a while i didn't observe that my front camera is not working.actually with this latest rom updated,still not working.my gps part is not working too.i've been installed diffrent version of igo8,severall times and i could'n't find any gps signal.
So like i said before,my advice is to remain at the latest 6.1 official rom "untouched",because only with it I was able to use succesfully all my phone's functions.
Now i am facing another problem:i can not flash my phone again.the usdl_grand_prix is not "see"  my phone anymore.
THE FACTS ARE THOSE:first time when i've done it,i've must uninstall windows mobile device center.ONLY after that from the first time i restarted the phone i get the message "phone found".
i flashed ok,after that i downloaded the latest windows mobile center version,i installed and now when i'm trying to flash again i can't make it anymore.ofcourse,i uninstalled again win.m.d.c. but no succes.the problem is that is not all the w.m.d.c are uninstaled,there are some parts of it i can not remove.in the task manager i can see a process "wmcdBase.exe",and when i connect the phone the w.m.d.c is installed automatically,blocking usdlgrandprix to see the phone.
Has anyone facing this problems too?and another thing.i tried to edit the phone's reg using 'total comander'(its a short tut.right here:http://www.black-dragon82.blogspot.com/
.see the youtube video)but when i am getting to the version page in the registrys,i see only one file "+Add value".the other file,called "Customversion"is missing.
how can i edit the reg to avoid the "incorect software vers."has anyone succed to update the "phone" part in win 7?
thanks a lot in advance and goodluck to all of you!
Regards,Alcibiade!
(Sorry if i bother someone... Embarrassed)

I really need your help guys!
I am used to flashing my Omnia and have done it a couple of times already.
However, yesterday I tried to flash a new rom on it using Windows 7 for the first time.

Totally failed! Whenever I start USDL GrandPrix it starts downloading but then it suddenly stops and says "download failed". I think its when downloading the bootloader.
Now my phone won't turn on anymore and I cannot flash a new rom because it always fails.
Is there any way to get my phone back to work or did I somehow break it? I dont even know what I did wrong.

Please help me. I would appreciate it.
