What firmware have you tried? What is your software version?

In order to use samsung oficial firmware first part of software version must match with the one that UPDATE.exe checks and second should be inferior to the phone version. (Ex: to flash from i900XXHH1/XFHH1 to i900DXHJ1/DZHJ1 ... UPDATE.EXE must be hex edited from i900DX to i900XX ... phone version will be changed using regedit.exe from XFHH1to DZHG1 - G and not J because it needs to be inferior)

Also is important that the phone country match the firmware country ... (in the previously example the phone must be set to Philippines or Singapore for DXHJ1 update, otherwise you'll get "incorrect version"). Read Paul's post http://www.modaco.com/content/i900-omnia-r...re-version-fix/


If is not working please write what version do you have/tried.

Hi Syth

Make sure that when you change phone version using regedit.exe you put something like - MSHG1 (or MSHH1) ... updater checks if your version is equal or inferior to MSHJ1 ... if is equal you'll get "... latest version message" ...

Witch version did you write there? ... After changing the version check your Omnia version, Start Posted Image Settings Posted Image System tab Posted Image Your version of Omnia menu. You should have something like i900DXHJ1/MSHG1 ...

Tell me if you manage to get it done B).

You're welcome ... it should work for everyone if they made all the changes correctly. I've done it several times with different firmwares from Samsung website.

Do you have Samsung Modem installed? It's very important ... If not, try to install it and reboot the phone ... also before that search the forum for this problem and see what others have done. All my updates went well so i don't know what you did wrong ...

It should be easy for you, first change the phone to UK (THIS WILL DELETE EVERYTHING!!!).

Second Change the version in the phone's registry (from ACHJ2 to XXHG1, XXHH1 or MSHH1)

Go to Samsung Website and take the UK version - enter MSHH1 to access the download page.

Install Samsung Modem and execute the UK firmware.

Also, before flashing, read the forum to learn more about the process - this may kill your phone.
