Verizon Omnia has DISABLED dialpad codes?

I just need to confirm. For those with the Verizon version in the US. :confused: There are several numeric codes that onced pressed in the dialpad open several settings, stuff like:

*#0002*28346# - Opens the Audio control utility, where you can adjust low-level volumes.

*#7465625# - (Executes \Windows\Personalize.exe %LOCK_STATUS_INFO) Shows the status of the Network, Service Provider, SIM or Corporation lock.

*#92782# - (Executes \Windows\uamgr.exe) Shows the UA profile settings.

*#232337# - (Executes \Windows\bthrftest.exe) Shows the Bluetooth RF tester and the device address.

*#32489# - (GSM test) Shows the ciphering status and options to enable or disable it

But they seem NOT to work on the Verizon version. Unless I am doing something wrong. I go to Phone, key the code.... dial... and nothing happens. Am I supposed to press on something else to access? I just want to adjust the volume options. Let me know. Thanks.

Internet Connection Sharing

On the Verizon Touch Pro, I was able to use Internet Connection Sharing + WMWIFI to turn my 3G phone in to a walking WIFI routing for tethering purposes.

Seems to be the Verizon Samsung Omnia, this is difficult to do. Can't get it working.

samsung omnia streaming player

Hello!

After waiting to get my hands on Omnia I finaly did. But unfortunately I'm afraid to say that is not that stable as some people around here say. :(

Either my ROM version is very pour or I don't know...

Anyways I cannot connect to my wifi router unless i provide a static IP and when not using the phone for a while it simply stops working, it blanks out and I can't power it unless I remove the battery.

Another issue is my streaming player which gives me the prompt "invalid URL"

Have you any ideas how to solve this?
[Off-topic] emresumengen:
Hi :)

Actually, it usually is a ROM issue. I was somewhat (not totally) unhappy with the device before the ROM update.

The thing you mention is called the "Blank Screen of Death" and you would find that newer ROMs have that issue solved :)

Regarding to the wireless connection, I have never had a problem like that. But I must confess, it's wireless coverage is not great. Have you tried to use it with DHCP, near to your wireless AP?

I'm sorry to hear that, but I've read lots of people using it. Some are happy, some choose other 3rd party apps over it (like Coreplayer or so).

Overall, I think you might get more with a ROM update. But, if the wireless issue remains even after a ROM update (and of course, after trying some other brand access points), you might need to send it in, the actual wireless chip might be defective (I don't really think that would be the case).

If you're brave enough to flash it yourself, head over to this URL for fresh official Samsung ROMs:

[Off-topic] mariamadalina:
Hello!

Thank you for your suggestions emresumengen, but unfortunately the site u provided for ROM update doesn't offer support for Romania. :mad:

For the wi-fi matter I have tried to stay near the AP with DHCP enabled and the same thing.

Another thing that I discovered is that the screen sometimes doesn't wake up. When I press the keys the phone acts like it feels the taps but the screen doesn't wake up. I'm thinking on going to the store and give it back for testing. :(

I'm so mad because I so wanted this phone and looking forward to put my hands on it and now...this.

Totally disappointed.:(

Another issue can i configure somehow the phone to change the tracks from my headset button?

But is there a way to update the firmware of the device? i read somewhere that that would really improve the battery life. I don't care if this voids my warrenty i just dont want my fone to be bricked ;)

[Off-topic] Lynehammike:
There are a range of ROMS over at Modaco - most are based on the DX (Hongkong) ROM - the most recent available is the DXK2. But there are a heap of other ROMs available through the forum. The G in your ROM indicates that it was made in August with the K series being made in November. Much better roms.

You should be able to change to a rom from a different country with out too many problems - but there are some discussions on this as well.

[Off-topic] emresumengen:
Hi again,

First of all, as Lynehammike stated, it would be wrong to say that ROM support is at it's best with the Omnia. There's a limited list of supported countries for new ROMs (released by Samsung) and even they are not officially announced. (A user at MoDaCo has contacted Samsung support and received word that the mentioned official ROM site is intended for internal use... Doesn't make sense to me either)

But, I have successfully changed from a localized ROM (Turkish, to be exact.. It was JUHH2 or smth) to DXHK1 and had no problems. I still can use Turkish regional settings but the Turkish menus and messages are gone (which I didn't have a use at all, I prefered to use it in English already).

So, there you have three chances currently:

1) You go ahead and flash a new non-localized ROM to your device and see for yourself if the issues you face are resolved.

2) Head over to a service center and have them update the phone for you to the latest version they have. (This doesn't void the warranty but you'll be limited to the version they have and it also might take a while to get your Omnia back)

3) Wait until Samsung comes to their senses and notice that their high-paying customers need help, support and official fixes.

I'm actually not very happy with that either, and it's one of the few things I don't like about Omnia. In fact, it's _THAT_ glitch which makes me think that I would have bought an HTC instead, even though I'm _very_ happy with the phone's hardware...
[Off-topic] bogypop:
Hi there!

I'm also from Romania and I have to tell you that I'm very happy with my Omnia. I also have a Touch Pro (it is for sale now ). I have a big experience with HTC devices, starting with Qtek S110, but I have to say that Samsung did a better job with Omnia than HTC.

Back to you problems.

I don't have your wifi problems. Just works. I suggest to start fresh with a hard reset, than review your router settings. Disabling power save for wi-fi on phone could help.

Second problem. I also have the problem with the screen turning off. After a hard reset it doesn't occur so often. I think it is a known bug.

Third. Do you have a bluetooth hadset? I have Plantronics Pulsar and works great.

For the time being, I am more then happy with Omnia. I'll wait for holiday for trying a newer rom. For Romania there is no new official release. You could try Singapore for Country, but better read Modaco forums first.

Hi there again,

Bogypop, thank you for your reply. I was looking forward to see the post of a samsung omnia owner from romania.

Regarding my wi-fi problem maybe it's just the router that doesn't work quite well, but the thing is that i have another samsung i780 which connects just fine without any problem. My omnia connects also but only if a provide the ip, gateway and DNS.

I haven't had the chance and time to test it on another router to see how it works. Just for the case, I've disabled power save option. Also I have installed another program called wi-fi companion that has an option maximum network performance or somethings like this. I don't know if it is just me but my omnia connection seems to work better, as I said, with static IP.

Another problem, I don't know if you've seen my previous post, my streaming player says invalid URL after one blink of an eye. It doesn't searches for the url, nothing. I'm wondering if there are some settings that I should provide.

And the headset... I don't have a bluetooth headset, I prefer the one included in the pack and I was wondering if there is a solution for that regarding the change of tracks or radio programs as nokia has.

Thank you kindly!

Omnia ROM question

Hi everybody.

I'm a n00b so I don't know if there is a solution to my "problem"...

1) My baterry drops from 70% to 50, and then to 30..20.. and just shuts down without me even noticing...

2) Whenever the phone shuts down (from battery) or if I soft reset, the personalized ringtones for my contacts don't work. only the main ringtone.

3) I have a samsung tone for alarm clock but it only worked for 3-4 days. After that it selects it's own tone (and a very annoying one!!).

4) The alarm clock has a mind of it's own. The first time I set the alarm it was for 8:45am. The following week I changed that to 8:15am. Guess when it sounded? 8:45am :-) and with the annoying tone as well...

I called samsung in Greece and they said "we've heard from other users as well about battery issues and many bugs in FW.. We are working on a patch.."

I don't want a patch I want a ROM that works like it's supposed to... Maybe even a ROM that's not full of cr@p sw like windows live and shozu etc... So my questions:

A) Where can I find an English ROM with support for Greek Lang, and Greek xT9 (I like the Samsung defaults (KB,Kepad,Phonepad) but that respects the Omnia's huge battery.

B) Possibly a custom ROM with a proper task manager, resco explorer, memMaid, magic button, and a better Samsung today 2 (like Greatball's) but without spb shell. I think SPB is cr@ppy

C) How hard is it to Make My Own ROM?

D) MosisV when can we expect a gMeter for the Omnia. On your site it says comming soon...

PDA: i900BDHI2/BDHI2

Phone: i900XXHH9

Any help would be appreciated.

ps: Sorry for the long post. :-)

GPS on Verizon i910??

I know there are discussions on the other forums regarding unlocking of the GPS on the Verizon version of the omnia. I haven't seen much on this site, though. Just thought I would bring it up here so if anyone who hasn't already heard of the issues and would like to contribute to the challenge of unlocking it would be aware. I, for one, would LOVE to see it happen, as I miss it very much and am very dissapointed in this one aspect of the Omnia/Verizon. I used the GPS all of the time on my 6800 and would like to get it working on the Omnia also. I have followed most of the other forums and have mine working in that it will find sats and get a lock, but the lock is interrupted by garbage data which confuses the nav. programs and therefore does not allow for routing and mapping. With Google Maps, I will see my position on the map, then see a blank screen, or a map of some other place, then about every 20 sec. it will show my correct position. It goes through this pattern consistently, eventhough it maintains a lock on 7-12 sats the whole time.

Anyone who could help would be very much appreciated by many Verizon Omnia users!!

Samsung Omnia I900 WM6.1

I have been trying for 3 days to get my BlueTooths to work via Touch Player, WMP and now S2P. I have two separate BT and both will not receive music but work fine with the phone connectivity. I am using BTAudio as the App to activate the music sound from TP, WMP and/or S2P and when I tap on BTAudio it cuts off the sound but does not funnel it to the BT. When I tap again, the music is heard via the Phone speaker.

What are you people using to have the music pipe through to the BT?

A few Samsung Omnia Questions

Hello, all.

I just picked up a Samsung Omnia. Being new to the Windows Mobile world, I am trying to find something that is easily installed, relatively bug-free, and won't cause any instability issues. I've seen Manila2D, and that seems like it fits the bill pretty well...but I have a few questions:

1) Is there a specific version that I need for the Omnia? Where can I get it?

2) I really would like to have a weather application, and one is not included on the Omnia...is there one for the Manila system?

I tried searching, but am a little confused with whether these applications are universal or specific...so I could use a little help.

My last question is about emulating games...can that be done on smartphones? How?

I logged on to my Windows Live account on my Omnia.

I saw that it updated my contacts list.

Since most of the windows live contacts were "messy" and didn't have a name, and just had the email address.

So I begin deleting all the email addresses from my contacts list.

I then log on at home and find all my contacts were deleted!

I quickly do some searching on the net and restore the contacts :D thankfully (634 contacts)

So now I go back to my Mobile and log on to windows live and it gets the contacts back...
