I updated to HH3 on the first day I bought my Omnia and then to the unofficial HI3 a few days ago... both updates did not delete files in My Storage. I know as I put all installers inside there and just simply reinstall back my fav WinMo applications

Oh, I thought newer firmware has come out since many here has updated their firmware

Guess I'll have to wait for newer official firmware before updating

I was thinking about getting this phone... Can you watch movies in this phone? As in .avi, .ogmm .mpeg4 formats?

Is there an overall rating for this phone, can't seem to read through all the 100+ pages.

From what i have managed to deduct:
- Very nice interface
- Is called the iphone killer?
- Updating the firmware seems to be a hassle


So, another question of mine is... How does this phone perform when compared to apple iphone?

Hey guys, just wondering if anybody experience the same "problem" with me. Whenever my omnia is on, there is a very small high pit hed sound coming from the screen. If you put it near your ears, you can hear it..but when i press the power button to off it, it goes away. When I mean off I don't mean totally off, I don't know what's the correct term but maybe stand-by? I pres the power btton lightly. So is this high pitched sound normal or not? It's not super super scary loud la, just a small sound.

Mine doesn't have that sound... perhaps you should try updating your firmware and see if it goes away? Or just do a hard reset (make backup first)

Just my 2 cents worth by the way

iPhone's interface is much nicer, but in other aspects the Omnia win hands down. Upgraded from an iPhone to Omnia myself

Aye, this info is really helpful..

Which brings me back to my first question, can this phone play longlength video in Avi, Mpeg4, RMVB or Mpeg4 format. Such as watching a 2 hour movie under .avi format.

for me iPhone not worth to buy....cause not much functions as Omnia do.. such as da camera n no 3G call functions.... n cost above RM3k.... sigh...

however if u like a more stylish n nice interface n dun care bout da functions then go for iPhone itself...

no offence to da iPhone owners...

omnia is divx certified.. and can play almost all formats.... except rmvb u need to install something to let the windows media player recognize the file. refer to pda4x for that.

http://203.116.91.105/samsung_my/i900/web/index.html <--- list of playable formats by default.

hmmm this doesn't seems to apply to my omnia as not all videos can be played... i end up converting my videos to mp4 instead...

for omnia...the screen rotation not so stable a big lag ecspecially running program like garmin GPS, but for iPhone i haven't try rotate it while running a program, but i think iPhone more stable

any 1 facing the below backlight issue when navigated with Garmin?

Screen auto blank out (Power Saver) during in the mdidle of navigation with Garmin even though already set alway on, on while navigation etc in the Garmin Display Backlight Setting.

Thx

Would you mind to explain what kind of videos that are not able to play? I would greatly appreciate this.

I plan to use this phone to watch movies and stuff during long journey travels, if this phone could read .avi files, it would save me alot of hassle to convert long movies into mpeg4 format.

it can play .avi files..... but .rm files quite lag... still finding a solution to play rm file smoothly... any1 can help???

Well I tried with some avi, rmvb and mp4 files which I downloaded without any conversion, but end up the video either lagging or I see black screen with sound.

I need to convert to a lower quality mp4 only can play smoothly on omnia.

hi bro... can send me da link to download the file that can let me play rm file smoothly??

Yes, It same as me as well.

Abit lagging if not convert to small size.

I used to convert it to 480x272 then it become smooth while playing...

hi guys, do u all know how to send more than 1 file (multiple) via bluetooth? i cant seem to send it if i select more than 1 file, the send via bluetooth option will get disabled.

you can either always touch the screen or go to Power setting there set the backlight always on
