It seems handster.com DOESN'T have a download for voice dialing for the 18000. A pity that.
The winMo 6.5 upgrade is still several weeks away, at best, for this phone and there is no reason to think that it download will be the answer to this maidens prayer if samsung history is anything to go by.

    james, 22 Oct 2009There is no official 6.5 update for the Omnia II. I flashed... moreWhat I forgot to mention in my last post was - although the Omnias are being shipped with 6.5 some early ones still have 6.1 and this is why I said that Samsung have no official rom update, yet.

          My omnia 2 comes with winmo 6.5.

          the outlook mailbox i think u have to search in the properties and change them to receive all messages and not only the beginning.

          cpu at full power is crazy, u have to charge the battery all time.

                has anyone tried replacing "shutter 1,2 or 3" with silent wave file to silence the camera. if so did it work ok.
                the shutter waves r in the rom and the phone gives me a stern warning about replacing these files

                  origami, 22 Oct 2009do you know when we can upgrade to WM6.5? Free?There is no official 6.5 update for the Omnia II. I flashed a unofficial rom but the phone thought I was German and some off the windows apps would not work.
                  I suggest waiting for the Samsung rom update. Lets hope its not long to wait.

                        it seems no body cares about the outlook mail bug in this phone as no one is dicussing about that. Mail attachments come in blank! Don't you all have same problem or no one is using the outlook application except me?

                          I have had this phone about a week now and its amazing.

                          video quality playback is awesome even though the color restraint (65k=Wm6.1, 16m=WM6.5) major props.

                          The CPU is awesome at full throttled. (800+ mhz)

                          gps also great i got up to 7 satellites! + street view.

                          as far as applications goes these are a list of app stores i noticed.

                          samsungapp.com
                          windows market place
                          and others

                          my current apps are:
                          google maps
                          flash player 7
                          and Need for speed undercover.

                          I would also like the remind everyone that this isnt an iphone/ipod touch, so dont try to use it like one.

                          Cant wait to update this phone to windows mobile 6.5 :)

                            I have it, i know what i am saying.

                            so, if you have ever tried something else youll see what im talking about.

                            waht should i ask to pro's ??????
                            lol

                            i know what i am talking about.

                            its opinions, but i am not here to be unfair, i tell the truth.
                            this phone had great expectation for me and now im disapointed...:(

                            in the market, right now theres no other that i should swith for but when the htc hd 2 arrive , that will be my choice.

                            htc , for me, its the best supplier of this products.

                              You're so wrong. are you a billionaire or what? buy this phone and if it sucks, throw them like rubbish.that's why you have to ask the experts first before buying phone. at least if you want to make it rubbish, how bout give it to me.

                                  Hi,

                                  i have this phone.

                                  before it had the diamond 2 and the hero.
                                  unfortunately the hero doesent have viceocall,bt for transfer files, radio fm...

                                  if it had, would be awsome!!!!

                                  now, this omnia is not of what i had expected...
                                  too laggy,u have to press too hard on the screen,samsung touchwiz sucks..(tf3d is miles ahead)

                                  i'm going to wait and switch this for the new htc hd 2.
                                  Hope that will be the phone thats suits me.

                                      Re voice dialling::

                                      I typed in www.handster.com to get to the site, it has all the phones there, esp samsungs. Thanks for that TonyJo, good digging.

                                        The new Omnia 11 18000 is a great phone, it just needs a couple of the samsung techs to get in and back it up. I am going to see how the link from TonyJo below goes. It could be just what is required to address the disgraceful voice dialling imbalance in samsungs. I just bought it.

                                        I agree about the outgoing text alarm too, its a real pain that it can't be adjusted to suit.
