[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demonotter:
There seems to be a lot of contradictory information out there as to whether the Omnia 7 can use SD cards or not - can anyone confirm whether you can or can't use SD cards in this phone? It's one of the deciding factors for me as to whether I get one of these phones...

Thanks in advance.

No go http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/20/samsung-omnia-7-review/ "also, the latter lacks microSD expansion, thus stuck at 8GB of storage capacity for life."
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demonotter:
Yes, I saw that, but there are plenty of leaks around suggesting there is a capability for it on this phone, on reghardware for instance.

Just looking for confirmation beyond that article (I don't see a photo or the phone with the battery out showing no SD slot on it, after all).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martoto:
Take a look at the similar topic here. In short, Omnia 7 does NOT support expandable storage.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demonotter:
Ok, thanks. I might end up going for an Android phone if there are no other options in the UK for expandable storage on WP7 phones, then.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demonotter:
Here's another question: Is anyone offering the 16GB Omnia 7 in the UK?

Yeah, I'm still considering my options.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dividebyzeroZA:
THAT is exactly what I've been trying to find out myself. If you hear anything please post back here and I'll do the same.

I've heard the 16Gb is Asia-only which saddens me. If Omnia 7 16Gb was available in the UK I'd have one on me already, instead now I wait for a SAMOLED with 16Gb+ before I jump onboard :/
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phone Titan:
That sounds like a good idea.

I personally have never used up a 2GB SD card and so 8GB is more than enough for some users.

If you however require more space then they will probably bring out better devices next year.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martoto:
Well, I am afraid only 8GB devices are heading to Europe. Except from the exclusive HD7 16GB on O2.

The funny thing is that HD7 16GB seems to be the cheapest WP7 device in UK without contract (£380 on PAYG). Orange lists Mozart 8GB for £450 (PAYG) and Omnia 7 8GB remains about £480-500 on pre-orders.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lumpaywk:
the differance is screen quality is so marginal its almost none the hd7 is a far better phone. I was hooked on the omnia for ages but when it came to buying a phone it was hd7 all the way. Though i will say it is the cheapest paygo but its not the cheapest contract due to being extortion r us O2 but I had to have this phone in my life and i was just short of the cash needed to go without contract.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martoto:
I wouldn't say HD7 is better than Omnia 7. At least Samsung has better camera, larger battery, far better display. Don't forget WP7 has been designed with AMOLED tech in mind so Omnia will have much better battery life, especially with the dark theme.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
I have to say that the difference in display quality is HUGE. The Samsung wins hands down, no matter if you're inside or outside. The drawback is that it's smaller though.

My choice was between the two and up until I could confirm 100% that the Omnia 7 did not have a SD slot (as Three UK initially reported it did) it was the device I was choosing. When I found out there was no expandable memory on the Samsung I was really torn on what to do, on the one hand the Omnia has a much better display and what I'm guessing is a far superiour camera to the HD7 (based on previous HTC products I've owned).

The downside was that it only had 8GB storage, which is way too little for my needs. So in the end I went with the HD7, but I'm really not happy about it and if I had a choice of not getting a WP7 device at all I would have done (unfortunately I need one for development purposes).

I don't know what HTCs game is recently, but they're releasing a whole bunch of crap. I mean, you can get a 5MP camera with a 3.8" screen or a 8MP camera with a 3.7" screen... why f'ing bother? They even look similar. Give us a device with 3.8" screen and 8MP camera (provided said camera is even any good) device instead.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sir. Haxalot:
Somewhat OffT, but is there any reliable source which tells wherter the Samsung have 256 or 512MB RAM?

I don't want to get owned later if I get a 256MB RAM device and it turns out that 512MB will be useful later on (for e.g. multitasking)

I'm currently deciding between the Omnia or LG Optimus
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
Been trying to confirm this today after receiving a Omnia7 from ThreeUK, but the specs show nothing about actual RAM size, neither does the Settings/About screen.

I'm guessing one way to find out for sure is to side-load the Task Manager from one of the pre-release ROMs, but I'm not keeping this device so won't register it to my marketplace accnt.

Either way you should be fine with the Omnia7 for a long time to come as any single app is only allowed to consume 90MB RAM (at least at the moment).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ulla2:
Dude - if you received a handset today, can you verify/reject if Omnia 7 indeed has an empty slot for SD-cards???

Like others have already posted - there is no SD slot unfortunately. I have verified this.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reihnold:
That seems to be a setting that can be locked by the carrier, according to the comments on this blog post. I have no idea how restrictive T-Mobile is going to be, so it might be possible that the language on the German Omnia will be hardlocked to German. I plan on purchasing it for myself and can give feedback, when I have it.

I played with an HTC HD7 today in an O2 shop. I did manage to change the language. There were only 3 options. English German and Spanish I think.

Seems strange to have another 16gb model with a memory card slot, that would cost Samsung more wouldn't it?

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tissot201:
How much is the phone with no contract and is it possible to get it unlocked?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VonCrisp:
The rough price would be around 500 pounds + - . As of right now no one is selling the phone off contract. Contracts > Sim Free. The phone is still not up on amazon and the 16gb is only supposed to become available within the next 3 weeks.

On top of that there appears to be an issue with the quality .. something about recalls?!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phone Titan:
Chances are that it will be an 8 gig.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lzyla:
Wow, I don;t care if it comes with 8 or 16.

I was using max 2gb on my HTC anywany - what do you need to carry on you guys?

Any ideas regarding future rom development for WP7?

Is there going to be anything like this?

I am starting to be a bit worried about personalization and stuff like lack of multitasking...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gate Keeper:
most people have music and videos that they want to pile into the phones. i personally mainly just use radio, so the games is what's going to take up most of the space for me. as for rom development, well we have to wait and see if/when the OS gets jailbroken first, not to mention all the safeguards in place on MS' side of things (such as possibly having your live account banned from xbox live).

as for personalisation, who knows how much MS is going to open up the OS over time, hope they open it up a bit more. And lack of multi-tasking, MS said that they know that people definitely want it, but they only want to implement it when they're certain that it won't be detrimental to the battery life.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lzyla:
sounds good - just like an iOS story ;-)

I will be visiting uk on 26th of Nov - hopefully a sim free one could be obtained by that time ;-)

I have also heard some rumours about much more interesting devices coming soon, when the market is ready for new models (microSD slot, all metal back and frame) but I don't think I can wait another months. Sticking to my old e75 since my HD2 was lost ;-)

this will just filter it down to those that you actually have details for. it will still keep updating their facebook details, but at least it will only show them from those who you actually have details about.

I have to agree with Mr Coleman in that all we need to do if uncover the hardreset key combo, but thats a conversation for another thread :D

edit: and the units that have been tried are engineering examples and not production, maybe they don't have the facility to expand? The dell has been marketed as one of the few with "user expandable ram". If we can't then that would be blatent false advertising in the eyes of UK law. I think we will only really see when we actually get our hands on production models - early/middle next week. I'm not overly fussed, if I can't expand it, its going back. Simples.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morsolo:
Ok... Well, let's see if I can do my best to explain everything.

I've been using AdamG's "Official Froyo HTC Sense ROM" in my Desire since I got it (about 4 months ago). Recently, my crappy stock SD card corrupted itself and after backing it up, I reformatted it.

Apparently that did something really bad because now my phone wont turn on. It just sits at the "HTC" loading screen. I can get into recovery, but anything I try results in "ADB server out of date. Killing..." and then "Daemon still not running".

I'm at a loss here. I haven't bothered playing with root, or ROMs or anything since I first did it all 4 months ago (without a problem). So treat me like an utter noob. :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
Have you tried to take the SD card out and reboot?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zHk3R:
Take out the SDcard and try booting into Recovery.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
you should of done a nandroid, maybe you have formatted your ext partition, if you have you will need to re-flash
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morsolo:
I've tried taking the SD card out and all the obvious stuff.

That sounds plausible, that might have been what I did. What's involved in a re-flash? Start from square one? Re-root and all? How do I do all that from where I am now?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe_998:
No a re-flash would mean flashing just your ROM.

Were you using A2SD?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morsolo:
Yes I was.

I managed to get into Recovery and wiped everything from there, the phone now boots to the stock ROM. (stock as in the one I had loaded, AdamG's one). I want to swap to a different ROM, how do I do so from this point?

Also, on another (maybe unrelated) note: When in recovery, it says:

"E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command"

Does that mean anything?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe_998:
Pick the ROM you want and put it on the root of your SD card.

Download ROM manager and select Install ROM from SD Card, Look for the ROM you put on your SD Card and select it, Tick Backup Existing ROM and Wipe Data and Cache. Then let ROM manager do it's thing.

Sorry I don't know what "E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command" means, I'm a newbie too, I only replied because I formatted my SD card before and had the same problems you're having.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morsolo:
Thanks Joe... Unfortunately, I got a little further into the process and went to flash via the Recovery (rather than in the ROM Manager app)...

...I say "unfortunately" because now I have no system (as it formatted it as part of the process) but I keep getting:

Will the problems ever end?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe_998:
how did you format your SD? I'm no expert but it looks like your SD EXT partition is still corrupted. I would format and repartition it using Gparted

Heres a guide for gparted http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7279872&postcount=3
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morsolo:
Haha, I think I got it, it's finishing the flashing process now. I'll let you know if it boots up and runs ok as soon as it does.

I think the problem with "SDEXT" was the ROM itself, it must have been a bad download or something, cause I just tried another one and it seems to be working fine. :)

Thanks for the help guys, will update ASAP.

Glad you're getting somewhere mate :D

I think I spoke too soon. I'm pretty sure the phone is now stuck in a bootloop.

I just keep getting the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" boot animation playing, sometimes it plays 5 seconds after another, then I leave it for like a minute before it plays it again. But it's stuck there.

...Unless ROMs have taken A VERY long time to start up since I last flashed. But I doubt it.

[Touch2 General] racoonboy:
this is my first HTC phone, take sometime to decide because i heard the battery died quickly. However, im from thailand and right now i see many people are getting rid of their mega here, some even bought for only few months. Maybe they are looking for a new android or win 7.

Would like to ask member here, is there any more than a year user and any of you are thinking about replacing? why?
[Touch2 General] czdjj:
I have Mega about 1 year. It´s good phone, quick, but i miss 2 things:

g sensor

video hardware acceleration - so you can´t run touchlo3d

qvga display isn´t problem, maybe wqvga or wvga will be better.

and battery live is one day (from 6am to 11pm) :-)
[Touch2 General] Stabata:
about 6 months for me...sometimes I love it sometimes I hate it.

like mine has a tendency to just lock up for no reason.....at that point I hate it.

my wife has one also and i dont think shre likes it much but she has only had it a month and has never really used WM6 before so give it time.

yes battery life (for me at least) is terrible but then I do spend hours a day messing with it, customizing it and I have a lot of tweaks and programmes installed which obviously don't help. I don't mind though as I just plug it into my PC every night when I go to bed and away I go again, no big deal

in short I love my Mega but it does have it moments still :p
[Touch2 General] leoccl86:
got it since May this year.

+ points

Thin and compact

Very very light for a smartphone

Durable - I've dropped it a few times and there wasn't any problem. There was once it flew out of my pocket while I was cycling. I was very very surprised that it only had a small nick

WM6.5 is very customizable.

GPS is lightning on this thing, I compared it to my Garmin 255, my Garmin actually took longer time to get hold of any signals. (probably bcos of 3G triagulation?)

Max Volume is very loud, nice.

- points

Can sometimes be very slow, this could be WM's problem.

No accelerometer, this means no portrait-landscape auto change (might no be a bad thing)

No graphics accelerator

QVGA, it's pretty small but it's what I want (a compact phone)

Typing SMS can take a long time to get used to (especially using QWERTY)

Overall it's quite a fun phone to have. Mostly because I love to tweak and to change stuff on my phone. It's what I feel a good phone for 1st time Touchscreen phone users.

battery life can go for 1.5 days on standby. if you use it all the time, the shortest I had was 10 hours.
