1st Samsung Official WM 6.5.3 ROM Review
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

My small review of JD1 ROM:
- 1st Official Samsung WM 6.5.3 ROM.
- No more Alignment Issue.
- The most smoother Samsung WidgetPlus - no longer refresh the widget and jumping between each page is fluid and smooth.
- New Media Player, re-design with big and clear cover display (Similar with JC2) with better volumn control at left side volumn button.
- New Photo app as now it allow you to deselect folder you don't want to be display.
- Re-skin the calculator, must more better color than JC2.
- Re-skin of Samsung Keyboard which now suite better with theme and dialpad.
- Top header re-color, now is even much more better than JC2 which darker and better coloring.
- The Dice game is still the old one, why only Taiwan and Hong Kong preloaded with newer dice.
- New incoming call screen when device is unlock.
- New Opera Mobile 9.7 preloaded.
- More RAM available, now 152.13MB available.
- No issue displaying asian language.
- Samsung Main Menu & Cube 3D removed. Kinda miss it but is ok as it is pointless to having it.
- Larger Indicator has been remove and replace with default WM 6.5.3 one.

This ROM is by far the best ROM ever release by Samsung. Bravo! Samsung!

ARE you sure this is official ROM?? I guess it is a custom ROM. Samsung haven't annouce any update for OMNIA II yet. right?
and WM6.5.3 does not have any official release yet, only TOSHIBA Showed once in WMC.
because lot of program not compatible with the new start bar.

I am a Omnia PRO b7610 user, suppose both of this device had 99% similiar software system except habdware.
I found that Samsung skinned sms/email is nice but laggy. even their Calender was not as fast as what custom ROM done. really hope for Official release since i still got 11 month official warranty...lol

Well kinda =D

Usually you have to flash back to the old firmware for Malaysia before sending in for warranty.

IINM Malaysia ROM update is super duper slow. I know I was at IJ9 or something. Cant really remember.

I went to service center at berjaya plaza. for my B7610 ROM update.
customer service told me, this phone is still too new in Malaysia, they no even have its ROM yet..ask me call back few month later.. shocking.gif shocking.gif

OK, maybe I didn't make myself clear enough.

I was syncing before with Activesync. Now I suddenly cannot, when I plug in the Omnia, my PC doesn't react. I have also reinstalled Activesync, doesn't help.

I know that hard resetting will probably fix it, but am hoping for a better way. And no, my Notification Queue is fine, I checked already.

Any new program u installed in ur omnia recently?
when u plug in, what happen? PC dectect anything like become memory drive?
ur Omnia connectionlogo got change to sync logo or not?

U use Windows Vista?if yes, try Ctrl-Alt Del see when u plug in Windows Media Player is on or not. If present, end it process and then ur sync should be working directly. This is Vista bug.

If u use WinXP but prog sudden occur, tyr look at ur connection setting inside ur omnia, see how the USB connection u had chosen, is that Activesync or u accidentally change it to sync with memory? (this will made ur omnia bcome removeable drive.)

a few questions about the charger:

1. can I use Nokia N97 charger to charge the omina 2? coz its rated 1200mAh output, maybe can make it more faster to charge?

2. i'm looking for car charger and found the cheapest one at rm8. is it good? will it spoil the battery?
*
1. Do u realize the plug is different? OMNIA 2 used it own socket type. Higher voltage of output chager no necessary shorten the charging time.
2. Personally I believe value of item equal to time length of it function. just like u brought a china phone compare to normal phone.

My friend's Omnia 2 having problem with the messaging..it hang and lag..how to overcome? please help..
Others thing normal..only when messaging..it needs to load very long time and sometimes typing message also hang..
*
this is due to Samsung Msg skin, u may try one of the method in modaco website to disable the msg skin and use default WM msg skin. but it still have some side effect.

Hidden PowerDic.lnk at Windows folder. (Why Samsung hide it?)

Below is the instruction to make PowerDic.lnk appear at Start Menu:

- Open Resco File Exporer 2010, click Menu --> Options --> General.
- Go to Browser tab, and make sure untick all.
- Copy the PowerDic.lnk from Windows to Windows\Start Menu\Programs using Resco File Explorer 2010.
- Right click the PowerDic.lnk and choose Properties.
- Untick Hidden (untick twice) at the Attributes.

Now you will seen the PowerDic appear at Start Menu.
