[Off-topic] KChauJen:
Bravo... Good guide and very clear.

Thanks.

There's some point, I think we have to go a little deeper:

Actually, I think there should have a combination key to enter to bootloader too (but I don't know), and the Omnia will look for some specific name (Flash Rom name) in the SD card, then if it can't find out, it will try to connect with PC through the open port for downloading the application program of flashing Rom and execute.

When flashing rom with GrandPrix, be carefull to put the right part to the right box, mis-placed it will cause the big trouble, for example, place the PDA part to the phone box, then Omnia's still flash but at 44% it reported that "Port Open Failed" then from now, the radio (phone) is dead. Nothing we can't do at this moment for continuing to flash Omnia to revive the radio.

What we really need, it's important, is to find out what's the combination key to enter to bootloader and what's the file(s) and filename(s) we have to put to SD card. With this method, Omnia don't need to communicate with PC, therefore the error "Port Create Failed" would be forgotten.

To my opinion, Samsung should backup us by release some secret code to our community for us to help them indirectly and with our support the other Omnia users, this product will take a market share with HTC devices. If Samsung continues to keep this strategies and tactics like now, then the Omnia will be sold for just a few months and then stop.

Remember we are the minority, market share won't be affected by whether they give people a solution to unbricking devices or not.

Hi Bro,

Omnia's just about a month... ;)

What's happend when HTC about 6 yrs ago with HP-PDA, and now who's the king of PDA-Mobile now...

Samsung should have a clear with open mind for their strategies or they will close the PDA-Mobile phone section in the near-future...

Just my thought,

im going to be ordering my phone tomorrow, so i need to know the conclusion, i900 or diamond? im leaning towards the diamond at the moment purely because of the looks.
[Off-topic] cbanbury:
I haven't done any specific tests but yes, I would say so. Have you tried turning down the vibration in the settings? I heard that the haptic keyboard is drains the battery quiet a bit.

However I don't know if this setting actually changes how much response you get on the haptic keyboard :S
[Off-topic] cbanbury:
I had a play with the diamond in store before I bought my omnia, and I have to say that I wasn't very impressed with it. As far as I can see the only advantage the diamond has over the omnia is the larger resolution. Tbh I prefer having more room for my thumbs :p

The other thing that put me off the diamond in the end is the processor just didn't have enough kick to it. There was little difference between my old trinity's response time and the diamond.

As far as design is concerned, I'm not going to disagree. The only thing to consider is many users of the diamond have complained about battery life and stated that the extended battery is a must.

Personally that extra thickness ruins the design, and you might as well get a qwerty keyboard and get the touch pro.

Hope that is of some help

Well mine is on less than 20% now, after 24 hours on standby. All I have used today is the mp3 for half an hour....so might be joining you in going back to G4.

Do you know if its safe to go back to a previous version?
[Off-topic] cbanbury:
Your looking at the Omnia section :) Unfortunately it looks as though we won't be getting our own separate section as the Omnia isn't made by HTC.

You could argue that the site is 'xda-developers' and therefore anything outside the xda range shouldn't be included anyway (such as the diamond).

I'm guessing this argument would be quickly written off as a rather pedantic attempt at squeezing in a space for our Omnia though. :p

However, theres tons of information in this thread alone! :)...its just finding it thats a problem

Oh, so i'm not the only one. But its just the 2 of us cbanbury!

Now i'm on PDA H1 Rom and Radio H3 Rom. Fully charged at night 1030pm dropped to 60-70% in the morning 8AM. Before upgrade, can get around 100-90% still.

dun think its due to stronger gsm problem as i was on PDA H1 and Radio G4 and already noticed this problem. Upgraded to Radio G5 then Radio H3 now. Still the same.

Think i'll reflash and give it another chance since almost everyone got it working fine.

Motion animation selection in control panel

Hey guys,

those of you that are on H1 rom. you are able to select which kind of animation for rotations right?

can you post the motionsensor.exe in windows directory?

i am still on G2 rom and seeing the problems i seen so far i am not upgrading to G4 or H1 roms yet.. can some one please post it for me? i'll see if that will allow me to change animation on G2 roms.

Thank you
[Off-topic] cbanbury:
Yer, I think we are part of a pretty select group anyway. As far as I'm aware the Omnia isn't even out yet over here (UK) :P

My Radio ROM has never changed since the default G3 (not out of choice...jus the updater always fails at that section) so I know its not that too.

However, I'm definatly going to be joining you on in going back to G4, I have noticed some rather steep battery drains in the last few hours or so.

Will flash as soon as I can and post results, would you mind testing mp3 playback and tomtom or something if you have it? These seem to be giving me the most issues at the moment on battery life, so would be interesting to compare.

Good luck with the downgrade :P (for both of us)
[Off-topic] cbanbury:
Just a guess, but won't the animation be linked to image files that form the 'themes' for the different styles of animation? So I don't think the exe along is going to do you much good.
[Off-topic] Cutefox:
Yea i understand that, the reason why is samsung have the tendency of having most of their files already in the old rom.. its just the program that they keep updating mostly.. take i780's fingermouse for example.. i ported out the fingermouse.exe from i780 and ran it on my omnia.. it now allows me to choose all the mouse cursor from i780 i want which wasnt available in any of omnia rom so far.. the theme/picture files of the mouse cursor is already present in omnia.. just the fingermouse.exe is not updated..

so i reckon, somehow the motionsensor.exe would allow me to choose the animation.. the animation might not be there but its a start.. we can then investigate where are the rotation animation and possibly make our own animation in the future.. well i dont mind being the guinea pig to try it.. any H1 rom users please post the motionsensor.exe in windows..

thank you
[Off-topic] Wa|t:
cbanbury,

i reflashed H1 with H3 radio. gonna do more 'idle' testing because i know roughly how the battery life is like in this situation. so i wont be running mp3s. dun have tomtom installed either. i'll monitor and post prob tonite or tmr morning (singapore time gmt +8 )

to walt and cbanbury.

my new omnia comes with H1 rom and H1 radio(I am not sure of the radio though as these were the only H* in Version).

I am getting the same shocking battery drain as well. I am hoping it is because its my first charge though.
[Off-topic] cbanbury:
Welcome to the club, I have successfully flashed back to the G4 ROM now (as well as the radio). Haven't done any testing, but from idle its holiding its charge like a normal phone again :p

I'm going to put it through its paces though, and see if it holds as well as before under high load.
[Off-topic] s.l.i:
Would be very nice if someone who is experienced in reverse engineering could help to find out how to query the omnia tilt sensor.

There are two interesting files in windows directory: accsensor.dll and accsensor_app.exe.

I took a look into the accsensor.dll and found some exported functions like ACS_Init, ACS_Open, ACS_IOControl, ACS_Close and ACS_Deinit.

But I think the accsensor_app.exe is the more interesting file.

I played around with IDA (disassembler) but I'm not experienced in assembler code. :confused:

But it seems that there exists a message queue and some events that could be used for querying the sensor.

This could make it possible to develop as nice sensor depended applications as for the diamond exist.
[Off-topic] Cutefox:
i tried it.. the option did opened up.. but no other animation is present.. so yes there must be the animation file.. now new2city can you check what files present in H1 that you think might represent the rotation animation? maybe some files named motionxxx or rotationxxx animationxxx etc etc.. anything that u think could help add those animation to G2 roms.. post it here.. i'll try it..

to omnia rom cooker, why dont we made a beta omnia rom that grabbed the best of all roms features? for me i love the feedback of G2 which is another reason i wont upgrade yet.. im sure that we can investigate the best of all features like good battery life in G2 and F8 roms which can be integrated with some of the wonderful features in H1 roms..
[Off-topic] new2city:
cBanbury, did you try the H3 Radio ROM? I am hesitating as I am just tweaking my phone the way I like it.. so, I might only start flashing after 1 week....

Cutefox... like the Germans say, Bitte Warten... btw, is there a way to have no animation when rotating the screen??? It just slows things down, IMHO, the animation..
[Off-topic] cbanbury:
No, I didnt try H3. I was too much of a coward to use the grand prix method and so far ive only use the updater exe's (I'm on vista and don' trust it). However this is the 1st time I have been able to get the G4 ROM to work....it usually fails when it comes to updating the radio. So far signal quality looks a lot better than G3.
[Off-topic] new2city:
I just don't like the idea of "down grading" ...

Anyway, I am on Vista as well, only possible way is to do it in the office or wait till I can up my XP machine which has been "asleep" ever since I got my new duo core(not so new now)..

I will have to try it myself... I guess... not this week though...;-)

really sina?

I found the i780 to be much much better in build quality than the Touch Dual i had for a short time. Also, the i-mate I use now is much better material wise.

All in all I think the HTC cases are horrible. somehow they don't get the battery/back covers right. they squeak and don't always fit 100%. And have you may read the reports of badly assembled Diamonds? parts not aligned perfectly, lose magnets, etc...

build quality is a major point to chose samsung windows mobile phones for me. I am currently considering getting the i780 after i could play with it. but only if the i900 doesn't appear soon here:)
[Off-topic] Ingvarr:
HTC assembly quality is really became bad. It was good from the start, but that started to change about 2-1 years ago.

It seems that more "mass-oriented" they make their devices, more quality they stretch so it becomes quite thin ;)

Btw, Touch Pro is from entirely different league. I dont want qwerty slider for instance. And anyway its not released yet, just wait until it will and then read all the forums over quality complaints...

I recently got a hold of an unlocked 16GB SGH-i900 Omnia. The phone is excellent in every regard except for 3G reception, which I can't seem to get on at&t.

Motion Sensor stops working

I have my omnia for 2 days now, well actually on my 2nd one as orange decided that I needed a new one as mines was freezing.

One thing I sussed today is the motion sensor stops working if you enable power save mode under settings>power>power save tab. Leave this option unticked & motion sensor works fine, also the phone doesn't lock up either.

Maybe someone should tell orange & samsung as they wanted me to return it again foe another replacement.

One thing still bugging me though my blue tooth in the car makes the phone turn on & off constantly when using the phone & i'll be dammed if i know why.

Also to use tomtom you will need VirtComMgr or gpsgate or you will be waiting forever for a gps lock.
