I don't remember if i installed NPS in compatibility mode, NPS is runing without administrator privilege. I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64bits and was able to update my omnia 2 without any problem. Am using Kies too for the marketplace widget and it is working fine, no crashes, no nothing.
Maybe you guys are using an outdated version of NPS.


I've downloaded NPS directly from the O2 site at Samsungmobile.com. It is New PC Studio version 1.4.0. The samsung site doesn't offer a version that at least states compatibility with any version of Win 7. I'm using Win 7 Enterprise 64bit.

Baltazar, are you using a different version of NPS?

Can someone who has applied the update give any details on ram ? I read somewhere that Sammy have kindly altered the pagepool size to give an extra awesome massive 5mb of available ram. ;)

Than was done in JA5, not IL5 (which dates back to December 2009).

NPS shows version 1.2.1 IH2_7,on another forum people are talking about having activesync installed and runing to be able to update the phone. No idea, as i said i didn't encounter any problem. I'm using activesinc to synchronize outlook, had it before i even knew there was a software called NPS. NPS installed fine with some warnings about the drivers, Kies installed fine too and both are runing without a problem.

Ohh ... i remembered that i had a problem installing the update the first time i tried. Had to run NPS as an administrator on Windows 7 to be able to start the update.

So... I was able to figure out how to get NPS installed and running on Win 7x64. I had to start the .exe with the compatibility troubleshooter and it installed fine. It also starts up and runs okay; however, I cannot get NPS to find my device. My device will connect with Mobile Device Center and sync up with Outlook - like normal, but it just won't connect with NPS.

So anyway, I have some more figuring out to do... unless someone has some advice to offer.

If you use ActiveSync then you're not using Windows 7, man! No way to install activesync to Win7, you need to use Mobile Device Center on Win7. So, that's why you can install and run NPS correctly.

Actually, Rapid, Baltazar does indeed claim that his NPS works fine with update on Win 7. I'm pretty sure that when he refers to "Activesyc", he's loosely referring to Mobile Device Center, because AS on Win 7 just wouldn't go.

Anyway, I'm currently having problems to get NPS to recognise my device when it is connected. Mobile Device Center will sync up like normal, but NPS just doesn't find the device. In any case, it's really not that important to me, but I'm going to give it another shot in Virtual XP mode, and if that doesn't work too, then I'll hook straight up to an old XP laptop and try it there.

I would really like to give that FUS Downloader app a shot. Has anyone tried this? I've seen that it's been downloaded several hundred times, but is there any feedback on it?

I have problems with NPS too. It's recognize my phone, but when I'm click to Update, it says the device does not support update. ;)
The Kies does not even recognize it. :D And now, the Windows does not even recognize it, after the Kies install.
The FUS Downloader works for me, but does not found any updated firmware to my set of Phone/CSC/PDA.

It would be good to get some feedback from the people who have updated to this rom, such as...
1, how's the battery life
2, is there anymore free ram
3, has the bug with the dissapearing wifi from wireless manager been fixed
4, do you still have extra gps in the gps settings or have samsung changed it to agps

Looking forward to your feed back guys ;)

Hi Everyone,

I updated my device two days ago to with KIES software of Samsung:

PDA: I8000NXXIL5
CSC: I8000XENIL5
Phone: I8000XXIL2

An my problem is, I cannot receive SMS, or send SMS. Somehow when I start the sms application, it opens and immediatly then it kills itself without any error.

Are there more people like me that have the same problem and is there a fix available?

Thanks in advanced.
