Seems like this may be old news, but I just saw it.


The WinMo 6.5 update for Epix was released on the Samsung site on July 2.

I don't have my usb cable here, so it will be Tuesday before I can give it a shot.


Enjoy

Not that old at all. Folks have just started talking about it over on XDA in the various custom ROM threads . It took a bit of doing with my Win7 machine, but I have the upgrade installed and first impressions are that it has fixed the GPS and mouse issue. I've not had much time to play with it beyond that.

Put together a thread at XDA with some tips and tricks… including how to get it going on Win7.

On July 2, Samsung released WM 6.5 for the Epix / i907. It is available here:

http://www.samsung.com/us/cons…..ab=support

Q: How do you get the Samsung official WM 6.5 upgrade for the Epix / i907 to work on Windows 7 64bit?

The trick is to get the drivers installed and then the Vista 32-bit installer works fine. You can get the drivers from:

http://downloadcenter.samsung……taller.exe. 

Run this install program. It will put the drivers in Program Files (x86)/Samsung but installation won't work. Next open the device manager and then update the driver for each of the non-working devices… Select the Program Files (x86)/Samsung directory. Windows 7 will successfully find and install the drivers.

Note that you will also need to set the USB connection mode to “Modem”. This is located in Settings / Connections / USB Connection Mode.

Q: Does HTC CM Internet WiFi Sharing work on the official Epix WM 6.5 release?

Yes. But to get it to work I also needed to install and RUN the Topaz CommManager. Start CommManager running and then start CM Internet Sharing. See this thread for details. 

http://www.modaco.com/content/…..t-sharing/. 

Note that the Topaz CommManager works but is not as clean as the default Wireless Manager. Also I installed the Application Unlocker from:

But not sure this was necessary.

Q: How do you get rid of the Startup and Shutdown animations and noise.

The following works on the official update.

I have been checking the MSFT site for a 6.5 update forever and I finally found this while paying my ATT Bill today! Im so happy this is out.


I was using Trashcan's cooked 6.1 ROM and had so many problems. Could not send or recieve pics in txt messages. Phone would turn on after 30 seconds after I shut it off. Finally txting pics works with 6.5 again!


I was about to cancel my ATT and switch carriers because the ROM I was using was so bad, but now I have no reason to!


FYI: I am using Windows 7 32 bit/Professional, and used the Vista version of the install tool and it worked flawlessly.
