hello, I plan to get this phone. i've been reading from page 1 to page 81 - well, skim thru the pages

I know some ppl complain the phone is not good b'cos they do not understand the phone. agree.

hardware wise - any issue? - esp the touch-screen?

as for HK3 ROM:

(1) vibrate is back on?
(2) still ring softly for the first 2-3 seconds?
(2) if I did a ROM upgrade, can I do a hard reset by going thru the menu? I think it's under settings? Rather by pressing this and that? Which no body has the right combination to do hard reset.

thks.

thks for the prompt reply. err...will not touch custom ROM - too chicken to do so

the best price I found so far is RM2350 for 8GB with std packaging

however, know another phone dealer that can go for RM21XX

thks again.

maybe will get at the end of this month Feb.

previously wanted to get the Pixon but 9/10 ppl complaint abt the battery life

haha - if I be an Omnians, there'll be tons and tons of questions as 1st time using a smart phone

i am touched - hope i can a thing or 2 from the sifu here

as for pixon, yes, love the 8MP. but it lacks customization and battery life sucks

hmm - will wait at the end of this month Feb to see to get Omnia. I am just concern over the hardware as I know the ppl at service center got those tidak apa attitude even if my phone has 12 mths warraty

one question - i tested the loudspeaker at a shop. not so loud ler, worry will miss lots of call. i know there is a way to tweak the loudspeaker - but now now

maybe if i d/load my own MP3, it will be louder.

i actually own nokia 5800 but sold it after 2 weeks usage - no drag and drop style and camera was very bad as it's like 1.3 MP BUT the music was great! after 2 weeks - got a bit bored

thks again

how long does a touch screen last? 2 yrs? 5 yrs?

my dad is still using Nokia 8850 (?not sure) - the butterfly version with the first blue back light and it's still running.

not sure omnia can last that long -

thot i read some where new official ROM (newer than HK3) will be out soon.

anyone know when?

thks

what doe IS stands for?

Omnia set from M'sia - is it black or silver chrome?

if silver set, then it will turn black!!!! and why does it turn black?

how to protect it then?

thks

a bit "mah fun" to place this IS as if got problem, technician need to remove IS before opening the set, right?

heard IS very hard to put and expensive.

Maybe a silicone cover to cover omnia - is there such thing as that? if yes, where to get? will chrome will still turn black as it's still expose to air?

pls advise.

spending RM2k++ and got these problems

BTW, best price OMNIA 8G in PJ where to get?

thks

i thot the IS is cover the entire phone (of course not the battery) OR IS for the top casing and another IS for the bottom casing?

anyway, will just get a silicone and screen protector.

or maybe leather pouch and screen protector.

btw, i am not an omnian yet

i know what u mean that pouch/silicone are bulky. what to do - need to protect the phone

when buy Omnia? any sponsors $

well, have been loking ard.

btw, is the loudspeaker loud - in noisy place like shopping complex, can still hear ka?

in US - models i910 has dedicated loudspeakers at the rear casing. shld be loud

fyi, i am using N73 now

Added on February 12, 2009, 8:33 amthis are the problems that are holding me back to buy Omnia.

q1. does the m'sian set has 3 Samsung Home screen to choose from?

q2. if i decide to use SPB shell, i copy the cab file in any folder? (maybe storage) and double click. after install, i choose the spb shell as home screen just as i choose samsung home screen 1-3? betul ka the step?

thks

i think can get RM1800 for SG set. would get the all black so that no chrome issue

warranty problem lar, pay another maybe RM400 to get FMG set

wait for price drop then another cool device pops up - it never ends and it's a dilemma

2 weeks to repair! gosh! that is very long

the person that wanted to sell me SG set told me leadtime is 1 week.

better get SG set then

you need a pro to do that IS installation.

dust inside? as long not scratches

any picture i can see where the silver chrome get black?

if windows mobile 6.5 or 7.0 comes along - can omnia be upgraded and how?

thks

check this out - similar problem to your case:

http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=7025

it will take less than 2 hrs to fix your phone if the technician is good and NOT lazy.

however, in the above forum, the technician did not reveal why it happen but he fixed it!

the chrome turn black - that ugly ka?

as for the hard reset - many ppl tried but no success

anyone tried this protection over their omnia?

open after u receive your omnia back from service center, change your avatar to a cheerful one

1. when u say disable all app and anti virus, do you mean on desktop or the omnia?

2. why firewall and internet connection are mentioned when ROM update is done offline? active sycn is in PC, new ROM is in PC, so why still go online?

3. the other thing is screen saver on both PC and omnia must be off and there is be no power saving mode - always ON - i think lar
