Can I ask what you guys use as a file explorer on OMJ's ROM? The only thing I've found is the TotalCommander. Was that what was intended?

As an aside, how do you guys synchronize your phones so the you don't end up with a bajillion duplicates in your calendar, contacts, etc??

I use TotalCommander, nice and powerful and ugly.

When I sync my calendar/contacts using Activesync with Gmail, it doesn't duplicate anything. I'm not exactly sure why yours is duplicating things.

I totally agree on the awesomeness of OMJ's ROM. My girlfriend had a Touch Pro, and I installed Ski ROM, which is kinda like the Touch Pro version of OMJ's, awesome and well put together. Now she upgraded to a Touch Pro 2, and I can't find a good ROM on it for her. All of the name brand ROM makers like Mighty and NRG are there, but they spread themselves so thin between devices and versions of their ROMs. Using her Touch Pro 2 really makes me miss OMJ's (and Ski's) ROM.

Yes, this is correct. Check the Notes section of your contacts (at least in Outlook) and you'll see coding for Facebook integration and HTC Sense integration (like fav's, among others...).

To answer my own question, and hopefully for the benefit of others, yes it is possible to receive TMC info on our Diamonds*.

You need to get HyperGPS here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=512630

(which will allow the phone to pickup the TMC data from the FM transmissions.)

Then, follow the instructions for setting up that tool to work with igo8.

*Then you need to get a $50 license for North american traffic (doesn't seem to be any way around this).

Thanks to myndwire and others mentioned below, I now have TMC Pro/Premium working on my i910 Omnia in North America ($50 for Canada and USA). Here are the basics:
1) Verizon Samsung i910 Omnia using recent CF03-based gps-unlocked firmware (see MoDaCo.com, thanks to BlazingWolf);
2) OmniaTMC beta2 (see MoDaCo.com, thanks to BeamRider);
3) iGo8 8.3.2.93112 (see ppcwarez.org, thanks to JetMouse);
4) Add "enable_subscription=1" (without quotes) to [tmc] section of sys.txt;
5) Copy current uuid from igo8 subscription field (note that this may change on hard reset, I'd SAVE IT);
6) Pay $50 for North American Total Traffic Network (TTN) Subscription from Clarion (see https://cart.buytmc.com/subscribe);
7) Backup everything from igo8 folder on device (or at least igo8\save\cctmc.dat).

Notes:
A) I have not tried a hard reset yet to see if I can recover (since the uuid would probably change), but I'm hopeful that it wouldn't matter as long as the above cctmc.dat stays in place or gets restored.
B) The $50 Clarion subscription does not seem to expire as long as ClearChannel continues to transmit RDS-TMC in North America, the uuid resetting issue notwithstanding.

http://forum.ppcwarez.org/viewtopic....lit=cctmc.dat#

And then you should have working TMC traffic updates in Igo8!

thx....I've always used Total Commander as my file explorer & registry editor. I also sync w/ exchange, so I get no dups.

1) Can anyone please confirm that the "Turn speaker on when device is placed face down during call" is not operational for our phones? I tried the feature and it did't work (i'm guessing you need a front facing camera?)

2) Similarly I tried the "quiet ringtone on pickup" feature and I don't think it worked either. (I had my ring set to the loudest and when I picked up the phone it still kept ringing at full volume.) Is the broken ?

3) Conference calling, does it work for our phones? I tried it out, it dialed the first number fine, then when I dialed the second number Im not really sure what happened, but it didn't connect.

no, no & yes

the newer phones (like the TP2) have a sensor for these features....conf (3-way calling) does work. I just tried it. I 1st dialed my landline, then called my VM by highlighting it from call history, once it connected, I pressed the hard send button to join calls

Ah thanks for clearing that up. I tried it again and 3 party conference call worked. However, i couldn't add more parties. So this conference calling can only support 3 parties (yourself, other and other) unless I am doing something wrong (which could easily be the case! hehe).

Here's a folder containing 9 CDMA Phone Code short cuts.

AKEY
PREV
VOCODER
DATA
PRL
DEBUG
PST
DIAG
RTN

I added it to the system tools folder. Personally I only ever use PST and DEBUG, but having these short cuts makes it a lot easier than remembering and typing in phone codes. Plus it only takes up 245 BYTES! Maybe we could get these cooked into the ROM OMJ?

Does anyone else experience some finnikey behaviour from the task switcher (when you press on the small clock in the top right)? My task switcher will often fail to open, it will show an outline and then disappear. Other times it will open without issue.

Ok, so yesterday I went on a short trip relying on GoogleMaps for directions. I didn't see the option to check "Use GPS". GoogleMaps was working but not that great. What is GoogleMaps using when GPS isn't being used? Cell phone tower triangulation? I thought there was something wrong with GoogleMaps.
