New ROM I8700XXKH2 [SamFirmware] But... - Omnia 7 Windows Phone 7 Development

Files in the ROM are not signed... SamFirmware looking for a solution because this ROM may contain MANGO (specific to the Omnia 7).

It's actually so easy to know the exact build of Mango that it contains just dump the VersionID.txt from the IMGFS with HTCRIE as it contains all the compilation information.

someone has a link ?
I can't find it on samfirmware.

ROM is not deployed at this time because the files are not signed.
SamFirmware are looking for a solution for that ROM can be flashed.

what approximate date of Mango release??

When moon gets to phase where it looks like it has blue-ish color.
Nobody knows ;D

Found KD1 on Samfirmware but it doesn't like my Onmia.....KH1 not in the list of download options, maybe a news article?

KD1 is signed by WP_ENGINEER certificate (or whatever, but it can't be flashed on our devices with our current SPL). The same is probably the KH2 ROM. If it was at least on their website, I could check whether it is Mango or not and whether I should mess with it around or not

The ROM I8700XXKH2 will not release !

What about power users?

This version will be release soon. With new radio and MANGO.
http://www.samfirmware.com/apps/blog/show/8355882-windows-phone-7-5-omnia-7
And for information there is another version for dev : ROM I8700XXKI1

If I understand the blog post correctly, they say, that they could not release WP7_PRODUCT ROM, so they released only WP7_ENGINEER.
If I had spare Omnia, I would give it a try, but I don't have one.

Hmm. I wonder if this one will have the new localized display languages?

Samsung could make a case in court against us.
Because the roms are officialy not released by Samsung we can't do this.
The only thing we can do is releasing the rom so you guys can try it by yourself.

ROM is release but not unlock for all of us. Only Devs.
Samsungfirmware success to hack it but will not relase it. Umh how long we have to wait before hack be release !!!

Nope, just the classic
0C0A (Spanish), 040C (French), 0407 (German), 0409 (US English), 0410 (Italian), 0809 (UK English)

Okay, me and Ceesheim are trying out something.
There is .cab.pks file in the update, that contains only OEM specific updates:
http://clip2net.com/s/19zi6
(left extracted ROM, right the update package for the same item)
Ceesheim is trying to flash it through "Zune", I don't have spare phone to mess around on
Will keep you posted.
// The only thing that might be problem is the Radio (PHONE) part, as that one is not updated. Yet we update RIL in one of the packages :/.

so as far as I understood they released a rom BUT no one can install it because it is only for engineer phones? what are we supposed to do with this release????
f5 f5 f5 f5... waiting for news!

Actually
the enclosed .cab.pks contains everything - new bootloader (5.3.0.8 - but BE WARNED, it might be LOCKED TO WP7_ENGINEER RATHER WP7_PRODUCT! So further flashing Retail ROMs might be blocked!), new radio (2424.11.7.2) and the new drivers set (2424.11.8.2).
The update was succesfully deployed, and the phone booted fine.
Ceesheim is still trying some functions (phone, SMS) and I am trying to take out the new bootloader from the update package.

Yes, as I was afraid, it flashed WP7_ENGINEER bootloader onto the phone with the rest of the stuff too.
Until I can figure out which package contains it, DO NOT FLASH IT! or you will be locked to ENGINEER ROMs only!

[ROM UPDATE]HTC Touch Pro2 1.19 EU

HTC Touch Pro2 ROM Upgrade (EU)
An updated ROM is now available for HTC Touch Pro2 users to download. As always, HTC is committed to providing customers with the best possible mobile experience.
Improved Functions and Fixes:
* The Financial Providers Icon (Yahoo!) was placed in the Stock Tab in TouchFLO to clearly indicate where the data originated.
* The phone now shows the actual amount of RAM (288MB) instead of the amount used in previous models (256MB).
Download
Thank you for the information.
Actually allowing me to download it.
Probably won't flash it for a while.
Everything I normally use, works just fine.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
If you are having problems downloading it, get it here.

Downoaded it. Loaded it onto my TP2. Wished I hadn't. Performance is now dreadful!
Phone sticks in the call screen, and I've lost my licenced version of CoPilot.
I have all the ROMs except the Portuguese one (which I dont have a valid S/N for) at http://xda.caspersworld.co.uk
EDIT: Now have the Portuguese ROM as well

Thank you for the heads up. I was just about to download it when I read your comment.
My Rhoduim works great with the stock rom it came with. (1.19.401.0) So like the guy said in another thread here in the Rhoduim section "If it ain't broke it don't need to be fixed".
Don't get me wrong, I am looking forward to some custom roms.

I've downloaded it. Runs smooth, no problems. I updated my copilot last week with the one in the htc site. It wouldn't allow me to use my licence on it. Contacted copilot, they replied straight away with
Please proceed with the following instructions to allow you to activate successfully on the Touch Diamond 2 / Touch Pro 2.
1) Hard reset your device (as HTC stop CoPilot from being removed from the device once installed)
2) Download the latest installer from http://support-downloads.alk.com/copilot7-cabs/Touch-Diamond-Pro-2-Non-RPS-CAB.zip
3) Delete \Storage Card\CoPilot\Save
4) Unzip the above ZIP and it should contain a copilot.wm6ppc.cab
5) Download the map from our portal www.copilotlive.com/htc
6) Unzip the file and copy the folder CoPilot into your Storage Card
7) Install this on your device (navigate and tap it using File Explorer)
8) Once installed, Launch CoPilot
9) You will now be asked for a product key code
10) Select Manual Activation
11) Go to http://activate.alk.com and enter
Your Product Key Code
Your License number (found on your device manual activation screen)
Your Email Address
12) When provided from the Activation Website with an Activation Code, tap NEXT on your device and enter this into your device
13) CoPilot should now activate successfully
I tried it using automatic activation and it worked.
After updating to this new rom, copilot remained in my program directory and was still activated. Not sure how they managed to do that.
Hope that helps
what has changed? My rom has version 1.14.161.5 on it. It works like a dream after lots of tweaks and fiddles have been applied but I always want the the latest stuff. Does anyone know what has changed between mine and the new one?
I'm using a T-Mobile USA Touch Pro 2 and noticed that I'm running ROM 1.20.531.4 (51986) WWE with Radio 3.45.25.14.. If you guys need a rom dump of that, let me know, I'll see what I can do for ya'll
3g was gone
i am writing from Turkey and my carrier's name is turkcell... i installed that rom last night..it is bad for me, my carrier's 3g support was gone..the 3g icon doesnt appear anymore..what can i do ?
do you have 3G support with that radio?.

Yes, because it's an official TP2 for TMobile.
thanks for your response. I had some hope to be a radio based issue rather than the common hardware issue we've seen with all the generic devices. disregard my PMs though.
thanks again.
Q: can this be ported onto the US TP2?
CAN SOMEONE DUMP THE FILE HERE instead of going via HTC site
this cannot be port to youre device becouse there is NO hardspl.
you need that.. then you can flash roms other then youre languide (custom roms)
Hi all, newbie here.
I've got a UK vodafone Pro2 with ROM 1.14.161.5 (50207) WWE.
Tried updating the ROM but says my serial is not valid for this ROM!!!
I am also unable to update with the GPS hotfix as its not compatible ??
Is this due to the fact that its using Vodafones own ROM and therefore we arent allowed to reflash the ROM ?
I have emailed HTC but while waiting a reply was wondering if anyone here would help out.
Thanks!

did you get reply from HTC? I have the same issue with WWE version, and it's not branded.
Yeah i did, its due to the fact that its a custom Vodafone ROM. Therefore updating is not possible via HTC, they advised me to contact vodafone themselves to see if they have released any updates themselves.
couldn't find anything useful at all on the vodafone website.
Looks like I'm stuck... for now.
Apparently its not possible to to re-flash the ROM yet? something to do with HardSPL.. I don't know, complete noob at this so far.
Hope you have better luck.
Should I load the ROM??
I dont care what memory it says it has - I dont care where the finance quotes come from (these are the 2 stated improvements) - surely this is not the only reason to upgrade a ROM???

Any update on this Ansar?
It would be pleasing to see something happening here, since the thread has been dormant for a long while now. If only we could get a ROM that is Debranded with NODO update and unlocked by default.
Oh well, I hope someone is listening to all this and is kind enough to reply.

What do all these region specific roms do? Is there any advantage or extra goodies having one rom over another?
Crazy, this is the one for my carrier. Although the phone is not yet released, I think it is coming in April. I have my upgrade coming up this summer sometime and will get this phone to replace my Nexus One if I can root and install a Vanilla gingerbread rom on it like CM. I'm not into sense at all. But if All else fails, I will still get the phone for an upgrade, unlock it, and sell it and continue to use my N1

Hi,
does anyone know if a non-european rom like that from canada should work on a european version of the IS?
Will european languages be missing when you install this or get you in trouble with specific radio settings?
I got a little bug and was looking for a new firmware (when you open the phone application, normally you get to see the latest calls on top of your contacts and you can quickly navigate through the list by T9 search. However the list is completely empty until I press a key and delete it again.. then the list is displayed and I can search through it)
Thank you!
It doesn't include any information about EU APN's and all this material.
The language is inside without any preset except english

You can flash ENGINEER firmware on your device by using this one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1249329
Being able to flash ENGINEER firmware on your device does not depend on which device(RETAIL or ENGINEER) you have.
It only depends on your firmware flasher software.
Samsung Cetus flasher has 3 modes.
1. WP_PRODUCT
2. WP_ENGINEER
3. WP_HYBRID
If you set flasher with WP_HYBRID, you can flash all types of rom (even WP_ENGINEER).
Thanks but what I need is i8700OMNKC1 (which is Vodafone Italy branding) and kc1 rom. In your link I can't find the CSC file I'm looking for, while in this post there were these files.
I simply need these files because as I update this rom (after having flashed to my phone of course) it becomes i8700OMNKH3 which is the last Vodafone update (product, not engineer anymore). I don't know if you can get my point :|
I found the solution, thanks anyway.
No ways to get these files back yet??
Let me re-upload the archive. I also re-packed it so it is now only <200MB archive (but contains all the ROMs)
There you go, all the files from the original upload re-packed into smaller file.

"Gen8v2" and Gen9 firmware available

I'm not sure if this qualifies as development, but there are two unreleased firmwares floating around the Archos update server.
One is for a Gen8v2, which I have no idea what that is. It won't install onto current release models of the Gen8 lineup. I've tried on my A70IT and my A101IT.
http://update.archos.com/8/gen8v2/gen8v2_2.3.72/firmware_archos_android_gen8.aos
Then the surprising thing, is that there is a Gen9 firmware available!
Could possibly be a pre-release firmware, or possibly even release firmware.
http://update.archos.com/9/gen9/gen9_3.1.11/firmware_archos_it4.aos
Now the question is... Can anyone get into the .aos files?
I figured I'd share with the community here. This information was brought to my attention from another user at the ArchosFans forum (Bobo, a new user there).
Before anyone posts "no, you can't get into it", remember this is an unknown firmware, it could use a different public key, no key, who knows. So unless you can test the gen7 method or a new brute method, don't just post "no".
where did you get these from?
The link that they're hosted on. Right from Archos' update site.
I wonder is the "v2" could just mean the second beta for the new firmware.

That's kind of what I'm leaning towards, as the firmware numbering scheme matches up with what should be next for Gen8 devices.
The only problem is that it won't install, it gives an error saying it's for a different device. Maybe Archos did that so even if we found unreleased firmware, we couldn't install it.

That's what I'm thinking too. I bet they have developer models with different IDs that it will install on. I'm really hoping it's our new firmware...

The world needs more optimists
The new firmware for gen8 isn't Honeycomb, because the gen9 Honeycomb firmare is about 160MB and the gen8's is only 86MB
yea, but we do need at least gingerbread, otherwise that frontfacing camera is pretty much useless
Or it could be a firmware for the recently announced Archos 70b or whatever it's called.... the upcoming budget tablet, clearly with it's thumb in the Kindle Fire's eye, running Honeycomb but based on the original Gen8 hardware.
i cant wait to get this firmware.......ive only had my tab for 1 month and im using adw right now.....
