You know, I never bothered to ask what widgets were new. Is there a Windows Media Player widget? Wait, I have looked on the web to find a list of the new additions but all I see are pictures of the CNN widget. Anyone know where a complete lilsting is posted?

Have fun

They are the same widgets from the latest rom release.

Now, here is the not so fun part. They take an easy 15mb of space, and the uninstaller didn't work for me, so it was off to hard reset land w/ a backup restore.

But, I did take one for the team

I just got my i910 last weekend, would these be included in mine? which are they?

First, let me say welcome to the club. Second, please be prepared to stay on this board and seek out other spots to get help to tweak your new phone. Now on to your question. Samsung and Verizon have decided to go silent on upgrades, firmware, widgets et. al. for this device.

The reason why this thread was started was so that we, i910 owners, could start to use the same widgets that Samsung has so graciously installed on newer verions of the Omnia - OUTSIDE the US.

You probably have the same one we all have. These new widgets are from a recent update to the overseas i900 which are not workable with our i910. Adrynalyn was doing the group a favor by trying to tweak the .cab so that it worked on ours.

It does, but in its current state it would reside in your device. Thus taking up 15 mb. I asked him if he could fix it so that it could could be installed on the 8 gig storage. no luck. Hope that helps.

yeah I have been popping around here and a bunch of other sites. Already have today 2, total commander, home screen ++, s2u2, and others. I liked the widgets at first but as others have noticed they weren't all that helpful. What are the new ones in this, is there a link to somewhere that lists them?

Looks like I have to either switch to the new beta ROM or wait until the official release in order to get new widgets. The mad dash to tweak these for the i910 is over. Shoot.

With me and my luck I will botch something up.

And to boot there will be no fix for it in the ENTIRE forum! I will wait. It is "supposedly" 2 months away. I have waited this long.

BTW, are there any truly "noticeable" differences between the old and new ROM that you can tell?

Thanks for the link. You all really make it tempting for me to flash, but I'd rather blame Verizon for any mishaps in the process. Tempting though....
