On a few occasion, my phone could not 'wake up' from 'sleep' and I tried o reset the phone by pressing the on button but no response. I had to remove the battery and everything is back to normal. Does anyone here encountered the same thing?

p/s: I've install SPB mobile shell 2.1 also. Cld this be the cause for it?

No need to go to task manager every time.... the OMNIA have a Menu button on the side, Press once to load the menu page... Hold the button to display all running task... u got the option to shutdown all extra running task ter happy.gif

hope this helps...

I just found my phone hang few times during last weekend!!! I have to remove the battery and power on to get it resolve.
My battery also drain off in 1 day w/ very minimum usage!!

Normally my battery can last for ~3 days w/ minimum usage and for the very 1st week, it never hang at all.

End of Last week, I did installed spb 2.1.2, memmaid, contact pro 5.09 and seem like problems start to getting more and more.

Any 1 using the same program and encounter the same issues?

I would like to try that. In fact I'm trying it now. Any feedback for upgrading to H1??


Added on September 2, 2008, 9:24 pm
how? can you guide me?

to do video call, u gotta call maxis and ask them to sent you the settings 3G for Samsung i900. Also, u gotta tell them to activate ur phone for video call. Then save the settings (they'll send 2) when maxis send them to you.

And Viola!!! You can do video call.

Remember: You need to be in 3G coverage area to do video call as well as the person you are calling must have activate video call as well.

i've successfully upgraded to HH3...gonna monitor the battery live and give my observation later.

i noticed that with installation of SPB shell, the battery life is reduced to about 2/3 of its original capacity. While i could go 3-4 days without a charge before i installed spb shell, now its 2-3 days. Didnt notice it at first but now its quite obvious. mine is still g3.

And also noted that my fone charges faster with spb shell installed. takes about 3 hours to full charge as opposed to 5 hours before. Hmm.....something is really wierd here. Perhaps the batt meter in spb shell?
*
noticed tis on my omnia too...guess its because spb runs as a background application, hence the battery usage. sad.gif

i've upgraded to HH3 ysday...the battery life seemed ok...the only thing is i cldnt get the battery indicator to show 100% (only get 90% sad.gif ) thought the battery LED shows its fully charged (shows green color). was using it for a couple of calls and sms and still show 90%. thumbup.gif

I jz loved the updates on HH3...the haptic feedback improvement is superb...and the transition lag during screen rotation is reduced significantly thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

on top of that, the scrolling feature introduced in the msg reading is cool. The initial interface (HG4 and below) was a lil slacking behind iphone, but now its not only superior in term of features, but the interface is a steal too smile.gif

Havent try the rest of the features yet. i'll post more findings.

Hope Samsung will continue to improve the features. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Hi adwong, are you able to advice me how to set it? I cant seem to find this option in Messaging.

For those who updated their firmware, may I know if you manually configure GPRS/MMS settings again?
I tried to get setting from Digi, but they only have MMS. Can I know where else I could get internet setting?

Thanks.

got to Messaging> Menu > Tools > Options > tap on (*Messaging)

and you'll see the "Request delivery notifications" options
