Re: Beta rom

OK, Working now!! I did it wrong several times, but no brick! Thanks, sofladavid!

1. Power off means OFF, not suspend. Hold power button.
2. Setting the Omnia to "As the modem through USB" is unnecessary, if not problematic.
3. The driver needs to completely install, such that when connected to the Omnia for the first time, the PC displays "new hardware found" and "software installed" messages. (after disabling USB in Activesync.)

When I tried the fully OFF method last night, I had not completely installed the driver yet (no messages). After the driver was properly installed, I never went back and tried fully OFF again.

Or possibly, the "modem through USB" setting was not the right one. At least, the update worked after Data Connection was set back to "Internal Data Call".

There is a message which pops up when you select Data Connection in SETTINGS that says "to use VZAccess Manager, you should select "As the modem through USB/Bluetooth." Don't let that confuse you as I did. It is either wrong or unnecessary.

Now to get back to playing.
