Re: VZW Omnia Kitchen Thread

I got the Omnia on Monday. I flashed my Apache a lot while I had it. I cannot wait to try out some kitchens for the Omnia.

Re: VZW Omnia Kitchen Thread

Did anyone try out the above roms? Does it help?

Re: VZW Omnia Kitchen Thread

I am a proud new owner of the Omnia 1910, coming from the 6700. I abused the 30 day policy trying out the diamond and the touch pro via sprint.

I was almost settled in with the pro until my employer(US largest cable provider) announced to their employees that all company mobile devices(sprint) will be replaced with new devices and accesories from Verizon all existing numbers will be ported over by end of first quarter.

At that point I realized with my provider losing such a large account and my corp. discount soon to be snatched away. Tme to give verizon a try. I was offered an employee discounted plan and they had the new pro that I favored. I recieved the HTC PRO batardized step-child and immediately swapped it out the Omnia.

I am a dedicated pupil to this site and wanted to introduce myself to the dedicated talent in this thread.

I respect your hard work and effort to improve the experience of these great devices.

I seen some of you around the community (modaco/xda-dev) and have had no problem donating when in need.=D>

Just wanted to say thanks!

Oh by the way I am one of those jerks who takes down your broadband in the middle of the night! LOL

I upgrade the fiber optic network, it's for a good cause DOCSIS 3.0 coming to you cable internet subscribers soon!

Re: VZW Omnia Kitchen Thread

OK thanks to some anonoumous poster in this forum...I gave up on the Touch Pro.

I tried to order it yesterday but it was OUT OF STOCK....some might call in providence or somebody upstairs looking out for me.

My brother got the VZ Touch Pro this past Wednesday. Finally got a chance to really use it today. It is very sluggish. I'm sure a cooked ROM you might be able to squeeze some more performance out of it......

I will miss the Hardware Keyboard and the VGA screen......but that doesnt trump a non functioning device.

The Specs on the Omnia are impressive - nice 8GB onboard RAM - fast CPU. Unlocking the GPS is on the list and of course PLAYING IN THE KITCHEN !

Now I read that the omnia does not have a bootloader and that makes flashing ROM's more scary....why is that? It's been 6 months since I was tossing kitchen ROM's on my Sprint Touch so I am a tad rusty.

So HELLO to you all!

Re: VZW Omnia Kitchen Thread

Welcome to the darkside my brothers! Let us all join in the kitchen and start cookin some instant ROM strings. :evil4:

Re: VZW Omnia Kitchen Thread UPDATE 12/13/08

I just got a VZW OMNIA because of GPS function. As I have found out in the last week, VZW has locked this function. This is bad on their part because for the first time in 6 years, I'm thinking about switching carrier to ATT. Keep up the good work guys and hopefully our community can find a fix.

Update 12/9/08: Ive been working on building a rom, but have run into a couple problems that i'm looking into. wont have a rom up tonight guys
Update 12/13/08: I finally got my omnia today. The stock rom isnt as bad as i thought it would be, its actually pretty quick. The kitchen is giving me one huge error with inserting the imgfs partition into the rom, and i have yet to recieve help, as the tools i am using are made for the gsm omnia, and it looks like the partition checksums might be different. Still investigating this issue, but at the moment im just bent on customizing the omnia as much as possible with just the stock rom. The guys over at modaco.com might have GPS unlocked within the next couple of days without a custom rom, so that would be one major win over needing a custom rom.

Update 12/14/08: Here is a link to the kitchen that i have been working on, but at the moment it is none functioning. Im updloading it so people can try playing with it, and hopefully someone out there can get it working. http://www.filedropper.com/samsungi90xromkitchen ONCE AGAIN, THIS IS NOT A COMPLETE KITCHEN!

***WARNING*** FLASHING A CUSTOM ROM CAN/MAY/WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE. I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT YOU DOWNLOAD ON YOUR DESKTOP OR TRY FLASHING TO YOUR DEVICE.

To-Do list:
Get kitchen made (OEM, SYS, XIP structure) Completed on 12/7/08
Clean up kitchen (remove un-necessary files)
Flash first custom rom on cdma omnia
GPS Unlock
Update XIP, SYS to latest build
Port kitchen for use with ppckitchen.org's buildos

hey is this for the i910 i got the rom you post but it says i908 you got anything for the i910 for verizon :mrgreen:
