nice.. so we can update it now ? how do we update it ?

and i wish to have threaded sms. T_T

I've just solved my WIFI woes.

There was a few problems, i discovered:
1) Secondary SSID doesn't seems to work.

Basically my main problem was i MISSPELLED the WIFI name......The first letter is in CAPITAL, but i put LOWER CASE letter....just one letter!!!

Anyway, also tweaked the network settings ...maybe that helped too.

Now i've a new challenge...how to put a customized link to make it shown up in the Start Menu? I've created a NEWSMS.LNK and dumped it into the \Windows folder. But it does not show on the screen. Basically i want a CREATE NEW SMS shortcut directly on the Homescreen.

Any ideas??

try putting the shortcut file in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ i think...

Windows Mobile 6.5 I8000XXIJ1 Firmware for Samsung OMNIA II Review:











I8000XXIJ1 is purely one of the best firmware at the moment. Recommended. This firmware not support Chinese interface. Supported languages include English, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Russian, Greek, Spanish, Portuguese, Czech, Finnish, Danish, Polish, Swedish & Dutch. Thanks a lot Secany for posting out the firmware. At the moment, Samsung Service Center still don't have any Windows Mobile 6.5 firmware to upgrade yet.

Pros:

* Online widget like Facebook, Youtube and MySpace. no longer spinning except the AccuWeather widget.
* New nicely design Main Menu.
* Threaded SMS support officially this time.
* Capable of displaying Chinese wording.
* Smooth overall.
* Default lock screen is smooth not like the simplified chinese version (I8000UZNII1) leak last week.
* Main Storage free more than 100MB.
* The best WiFi speed so far. (No need do connection restore like I8000UZNII1)
* Newer Windows Mobile 6.5 build than I8000UZNII1.
* Asphalt 4 is added in (support Accelerometer) cool! but the graphics is not ready nice, version leak in internet is much more beauty.
* Crayon Physics is added in officially.
* Facebook, Search Widget & Youtube is pre-install.
* Two new incoming call, one need to slide when phone is lock, another is touch when phone is not lock. No longer need S2U2 already
* Better photo quality.

Cons:

* Program RAM only free around 50MB
* Old Red & Green Main Menu no longer exist.
* PlumSIP (Chinese input) no longer pre-install. (Cannot input chinese, need install 3rd party program now, but is ok for me)

hopefully most bugs will be fixed b4 they launch it..
so that we dun hv to reflash again n again~

Proud owner of Omnia I8000 Been busy playing around it since it's my first WinMo Device. Loving it!!
Kindly add me as well.

Anyway, read few places about "skinning" your device. Does it really help to get those finger prints off?
Where is the best place to get one?

Thanks. I've found out last night, you need to put in the \Windows\Menu (or is it \Windows\Start Menu ). The shortcut is made available for selection and
now i can put it into the homescreen to create a new SMS directly.

I've found out another thing. The WIFI does not work if your phone is plugged into the USB port of the PC. Just to share some info.

may i noe when i wanna install spb 3.5

which kind of file should i download ?

QVGA/WQVGA or VGA/WVGA ??

its doesnt get those finger prints off completely but it gives you more grip on the phone..honestly if you plan to do the skinning, just do it for your back cover..i did the skinning for both front and back but in the end i peel off the front part..looks better without it..

look at screen resolution there
use WVGA

anybody got recommended sellers to point to?

so which one is suitable for omnia II ??

jianjie already told you:

Thinking of selling my omnia II 8GB with screen protector & Brightstar (FMG equivalent) warranty until October 2010. Throw in an ori Capdase book style case worth RM 120.

Any takers?

You should post your device in [WTS].
Most of the forumers here already bought Omnia II unless somebody wants 2 Omnia II
