when u compose new msg, there's a 'mode xt9' at lower left corner rite? tap and hold it, thn it will pop out a layout option. u can select 12 keypad, 20 keypad, and qwerty there...select 12 keypad and u get yr normal keypad

Depends.  If your fingers are small, they you may be able to type faster.  As for those with big hands (particularly the thumbs, like me), it takes getting used to.  First week, I was constantly sending SMS with lots of typos , accidentally hitting the letter next to the the one I want.. (e.g. u becomes i, e becomes w etc.)
*
lol..me too! but just after 2 days i managed to get used to it..no more typo now ^^ (my thumb is around 2.5cm in diameter eh.. tongue.gif )
well, when reply, if u feel uneasy i will recommend u to use the 12 keypad mode..will be easier.

IMO, the xt9 is SH1T! i hate tat function..cz i dun type sms in PERFECT english and i type a lot of dialects/chinese words in ABC..so its pretty annoying with tat xt9 mode on...

sorry sorry...typo blush.gif
its pouch..i wud say its quality is quite low..

btw, answering to our fren who has problem with maxis, when u enter yr SIM card OR restart yr phone, the first msg will be to ask u to choose which network u prefer..so tat settings will be automatically done. just choose 3G n wait..thn all settings shud b in there by itself.

just a question, when u rotate the phone sideways when ur typing a sms, how fast does the qwerty keypad go into landscape mode? cuase for mine, its seriously slow n about 60% of the time is doesnt even move or do anything. does anyone knows why? and when can we go into landscape? just curious. i know the internet n photo album can do it, but i dont know the others.
*
for mine..it takes 1 to 2 seconds to rotate..quite long i wud say but tat's cz my firmware is still G6 (the original one, untouch, nvr modify).i bliv firmware upgrade can solve it.

and, only certain applications can go into landscape mode..for example like solitaire, cant go landscape..

for Luvz,
when it tries to connect to GPRS/3G data transfer just click the cancel..it will pop out rite?

hmm..if u cant get him, i'll explain in a more not so technical way
GPS = global positioning system, which is a system (or u can call it software wateva u like) to let u know where r u now. it uses satellite WITHOUT data transfer between yr phone and yr telco. so its free to use after u got the software (for instance, Garmin mobile XT)

thn, GOOGLE MAP is just an APPLICATION. just like LYN..a WEB PAGE to let u know where u r USING signal towers. so since its a WEB PAGE, u must pay for data charges when u use...c the diff now?

and yes, u can check yr route, and where u r now without GPS..just a google map will do. but u gotta pay for it and its SLOW SLOW SLOW!

[quote=faidz85,Oct 1 2009, 06:38 PM]Hey guys,

I am currently aiming for Omnia II and would like to know your honest opinions on the phone.

Do you guys recommend the phone to others? Or would you guys suggest a better phone in the same price range? What are the main issues that are plaguing this Omnia II?

I'm sorry that I posted here but I am doing my research on the phone before getting my own. Though I'd expect biased answers, I am hoping for someone to point out the cons of the phone.

Thanks a lot.

pros:
well i dun wanna repeat wats the good stuff on Omnia II when official website and newspaper ady got them all..
so below r my honest opinions:
iphone can do a lot with its app store, so why not it be on omnia 2? we may not have such great app store and cooked apps, but we still got a significant flexibility to mod our phone to install apps tat we want. for instance, u can put other phones UI into yr Omnia 2..

2nd one, i seriously need a GPS for me to go outstation, and a little gadget for me to show off..hehe.in tis case, Omnia 2 has become the perfect device for me!
with rm2100 device, i save money to buy nuvi 255, having better gadget than a HTC worth 2500, and a screen tat beats iphone 3GS!

if u wan me to suggest better phone in same price range...i seriously cant giv u any. i've been waiting for tis phone since tis year feb Barcelona mobile phone show case..and the reason is? wat u get is VERY WORTH wat u get...and YES i will recommend this to u.

main issues..hmm..like wat andrew said before, when starting to compose message it is laggy. (u gotta wait for a second or 2 for virtual keyboard to appear)
and, u will ned to surf tis forum frequently and aware of new firmware upgrade..mine nvr upgrade cz lazy.but i heard tat after upgrade it will be smoother..

so far..my phone nvr have any problem..so far so good..excluding SMS laggy, nothing bad =)

Yup, there is still no 3D hardware support for Omnia II yet. Everything you see on screen is software accelerated.

Without that, what's the difference with v3.0.1?

Can't even customize with mskip's widgets like these:

Seems very cheap. And what you guys use to protect your phone? Is invisible shield good?

as i know FMG only provides 12 months warranty. pls beware as its price is AP set price..i came across this price for AP set a lot in lelong.com.my..
