Has anyone tried to flash a rom on the i910 using Windows 7 x86? i'd like to try it, but don't know if ti will work the same as vista. thanks.

It works fine. Been running Win7 since last Oct. or Nev. and have flashed many times with it.

edit: at first I didn't see you were asking about an i910. I have a Touch Pro. I don't see why it wouldn't still work though.

I'm running x64 RC1, and have had no problems flashing to the Touch Pro.

i had a touch pro too, and probably flashed it 50 times with no probs. but from what i've read the omnia is a lot different with the bootloader.

I cook and flash using Windows 7. You should not have any issues assuming you follow the directions correctly.

I met a friend of a friend tonight, who never knew that it was possible to modify his Omnia, I showed him this site while at the bar, told him to be careful and follow directions. He just flashed his first ROM successfully and is using x86 Windows 7. Yay for PPCGeeks!
