i780 ROM flashing problem

---

When I try to flash a new ROM using the Mirage updater, after I connect the phone to the usb cable, Mirage show me the message " PDA Device not found". I have installed all samsung modem drivers, i have no firewall or antivirus program and still does not work to flash a new ROM. This behaviour appeared after I flashed the i780_DXHC4_Rev12 ROM. If anybody had this problem, please advice me what to do next. thanks

no experts here?

no this happen. Are you using XP?

First and only time when I succeded to flash the ROM (DXHC4 version), it was on win2k3 standard..Since then, I have tried to flash the ROM on various OS ( vista, xp, win2k3, win2k8..) with the same result each time: "PDA Device not found"...

Make sure to connect the phone to the USB cable when the phone is completely OFF. (take out battery and put it back in)

with the turned out phone connected to the cable, press DETECT,
and only then power up your phone.

I know some instructions tell you to go into bootloader mode, but I found that this is enough to successfully flash my device.

Make sure you run on XP and not on Vista.

Hope this helps.

thank you for your advice..unfortunately, it does not work also..after I press Detect and turn on the phone, Mirage send me the same message: "PDA Device not found"...if you can help me with other instructions, i would appreciate

Does your device succeed in connecting to the computer using ActiveSync?
Try disabling ActiveSync USB connection or altogether.

If you only want to install the PDA part try removing the USB modem drivers,
you don't need them for PDA only.

Try a different USB port maybe, Or maybe another cable.
I'm at a loss here...

Hi on this forum too!

You need to already have an active activesync relationship with the device.

I can make file transfer and PC sync with the phone.
I tried every USB port to flash the phone. But nothing works, only 'PDA Device not found' message. I think there is no solution for this problem...

u have to load the modem driver which is for i600... i had the same issue but as soon as u load the modem driver it works fine..

and u have to take out the batt and put back the batt then hold enter and Fn button while u press the power button.. and hold till the device is booted in emergency mode... then connect your USB cable..
