Re: Omnia Hacks / Tips / Tricks
 

I;m thinking of going to the Omnia. What I haven't been able to find out is whether the Omnia can be flashed with a custom ROM the same way Ive flashed my Touch Diamond? In other words, the carrier's ROM and format is gone and is replaced by a custom job. Is this possible with the Omnia, too?

It just became possible about a week ago. A new ROM was released, which unlocked the GPS. With the new release Kitchen's for the Omnia started coming out of the wood work. I know of a cople over at XDA, Modaco, and here.

Anyone know if WM 6.5 is out for the Omnia yet?

Not yet, I know there are a couple cooks looking into it though. Maybe in the near future!!

Re: Omnia Hacks / Tips / Tricks
 

Fingers crossed!!!:mrgreen:
So far really happy with the new ROM :headbang:

Re: Omnia Hacks / Tips / Tricks
 

Sorry to keep asking the same question but I have not seen a reply to this. Is there an existing fix for this or possibly something coming out in the new ROM? This is the only real problem I have with the phone and it drives me nuts. I appreciate all of the help you guys provide. Any help here would be truely appreciated.

Does the Omnia have to be Unlocked to fiddle the ROM?

What I'm hoping for is that I can do to the Omnia what I did to the HTC Diamond: completely remove the carrier's formatting by flashing a new ROM.

This raises the possibility that some agent or seller can activate the phone with another carrier. I will find out with the HTC in about 10 days.

The ROM that was released was a Verizon ROM, but that's not to say a completely custom ROM won't come out of the kitchens. As for activating it on another carrier, the i910 is CDMA so you'll only be able to activate it on CDMA networks, which limits your carriers.

Hey guys, I've been lurking around the site for some time and really appreciate all the info ya'll are willing to share. I've learned a lot so far and haven't had a "problem" I couldn't solve till now.

Earlier in this thread the custom taskbar was mentioned. It was packaged on a cab in this thread. I've tried downloading these (mostly ones from http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...custom+taskbar) and all seems cool except for the signal icon and the EV icon, but I think the EV icon is another issue altogether. I read in that thread that the signal icon won't work unless a reg edit is done to allow more signal bars to show. Seems the Omnia only shows 2 by default. (I'm using the i910) I read several pages of that thread to see if someone already posted an edit for this but that thread is huge, lol.

I came to this thread to see if an edit had been posted for this but haven't come across anything. (sorry if I missed it) I decided to try asking ya'll first since you guys are really knowledgeable with the Omnia. Is there such an edit or will I have to make due with just the speaker and battery icons. Thanks a bunch for any help ya'll can give. :)
