Question of the Day: What is your stance on AI?
Samsung i780
- Thread starter Dolby
- Start date
I see that only the PDA part of the your ROM had been upgraded to the latest but the phone part is still the old ROM. Not sure if you have installed the Samsung CDMA USB driver on your PC from the Samsungblog. If you don't have this installed, you won't be able to upgrade the phone part of the ROM (had the same problem with my Omnia before).
No sms thread mode for the new ROM at the moment, have not checked the registry settings yet. Too lazy as my dad never use that view.
I installed the USB driver sometime ago, don't recall it has anything to do with activesync.
If you had the USB modem driver instaled, try flash your phone again. Have you read the i780 upgrade guide?

Yup - 10 times
Oh well ... majority works alright
If the phone ROM is not upgraded then it's useless to you, as I would expect the new phone software should fix the connectivity issue on your i780.....

Yea - the thing is definatley the Samsung CDMA TEchnologies.
I've downloaded the zip from your link, unzipped and clicked 'setup' - but it sets up ActiveSync 4.5 again. The only thing that *may* be different is this active sync includes that driver (from a Samsung site) whereas the previous one I had (from an MS site), didn't.
I'm trying a 4th time now.

Definitely USB modem driver problem.
PM me your email, let me send you the modem driver I am using.
Hi Dolby, some people on the with Omnias had the same problem. Care to try this modem driver? Alternatively try http://fus.samsungmobile.com/omnia/SamsungModem_xp.zip
This latter is the same one I sent him.
Cool, they seem to be using the same driver then. Read somewhere that i600 and i780 also uses the same...

Have you uninstalled the previous Samsung 3.41 driver first? Uninstalled 3.41, restart and install the Samsung Modem XP driver.

Hmm strange. Have a look at: http://samsungblog.co.za/blog/mobi/...i900-firmware-now-available-download#comments
Port Create retry (25) till (0)
Download failed!!
Got this directory: windows/system32/driver
and rename the modem.sys to something like modem.sysback
Ok now go to control panel >> add and remove programs, and remove all the Samsung USB drivers (everything) restart you PC.
Install the USB driver again and try upgrading.
It should work fine now

Hmmmm ... when I double click on the driver it said 'installed'.
I even restarted and tried - but failed.
But when I went into device manager it seemed like it wasn't installed correctly, even though it said it was. I updated it from device manager and I think it'll work now.
Gimme 5 min ....
