Is it worth to change from Omnia to Diamond 2?

the main the difference is the WQVGA ---> WVGA. thats it. so how much u gotta top up? do YOU think its worth it for the change in reso?

HELP!!! My Omnia switches off on its own. This has happened a couple of times. I depend on my Omnia for alarm to wake up, there was once, it turned off on its own overnight, I woke up late for work! I thought it was on standby, when I pressed the front buttons a couple of times, it refuses to turn on, I had to remove my battery and replace then only able to turn it back on. Another time was when I had replied an sms, I pressed the power button to standby the phone, but after a while, I pressed the front buttons to "wake it up", I was unable to do so. I had to remove the battery again, and replace then only restart the phone. According to my friend, he replied my sms, but after I turned my phone back on, I did not receive the sms. This scenario has happened 3 times already.... Please help.. What's wrong with my Omnia? It's only 4 months old...

Did you pressed the power button for too long and accidently switched it off?
Which firmware are you on?
What other softwares have you installed in your device?
Why do you need to take out the battery before starting your device? Power button not responding?

I have been using Omnia for like 3 months, this phone serves me well during the day and make me cry during morning... I like everything that i can do wth this phone, and i dont regret getting this phone.

Why i say it makes me cry during the morning? I same like some of u guys who rely ONLY on phone to be my alarm clock... This phone either sleeps with me(doesnt wake up) until i wake up unlock the screen only the alarm rings... i am not using G-alarm.

can anyone recomend any nice 3rd party Alarm software?

The default ones i cant put really long tones into it and it supports only WAV files, as i tried to Extend my WAV files by using audacity, i cant use the file if the file is too big as in more than 10mb.

Any advice?

U must try outdoor only satellite can be detected.

I used the default 1 never fail me. Some time feel very avoid and think to throw my omnia cos it keep snoozing after 1 min(Set myself)

As the file size,u can try to convert to mp3 format to optimize the size.

ya me too..i juz use standard alarm & nothin wrong with it..
i set to working days so no need to set everyday..

my alarm works fine~ using the one provided in omnia...never fails to wake me up

but MP3 files cant be reconize as alarm tone...

eh who said like dat? juz put mp3 file in root folder then u can use..
same as ringtone..
i use mp3 as alarm tone..

hey, i wonder does anyone else have the same problem as my omnia.

Whenever I use landscape screen, wherever I touch, it seems that only the top of the screen is functioning. I mean, I can seem to navigate around. Each time I touch the screen, only the start menu pop up.

hw to fix it?

Does anyone noe hw to back up my sms? Feel like formatting my hp, but I want to restore my sms.

Guise, my omnia is syncing with the pc to another email. Its not mine,because I've checked many times its not my email. How do I change the email thats embedded in the phone? I've deleted the account in my outlook express inside the phone yet I still get those emails.

Guy iam interested in getting this omnia... how do u guys think? i mean as a omnia user...any regret or it is good? thanks in advance =)

Try re-Align your screen.

If your PC have Outlook, use ActiveSycn. If not, use MIT.

If you have the budget, wait for the Omnia II series.

It's not that serious, bro. It's all depends on whether you do it correctly.

You can update at any Samsung service center.
If you update yourself, make sure you follow closely to all instructions, from the source.
