Thanks for all the feedback guys.
Finally got it to work! karlbum mentioned about tomtom can use gps with flight mode on... so decided to google about it. A website that has nothing to do with omnia, but it helps. http://www.theallineed.com/personal-tech/08111621.htm Dun even need a hack..... just fiddle with the pin requirement under phone security settings. works on mapking too via port splitter |

Its especially useful for travelling omnians.
Now can use gps while overseas without risking receiving expensive roaming calls. I have observed that even if you reject a roaming call, you will still be charged for 1 minute. anywhere between RM2-RM5 per minute Steps: Go to phone>menu>options>security Click on ‘require PIN when phone is used’ When prompted, key in PIN num.... by default: Digi: 1234 Maxis: 0123 Celcom:.... not sure (1234 ?) When done, proceed to off phone function(flight mode) GPS is now still usable. To re-enable phone, simply key in the pin num. Or alternatively, remove PIN requirement under the said settings.

GUI v5 looks better though. gps acquisition time seems better on v4 |
