Skyjack*10, 04 Oct 2010Tks Lawrence for your tips.
I`m actually a little disap... more.@ skyjack - you can't compare omnia 2 with desire. why? first, the hardware specs. second, android vs winmo.i'm not saying one is better than other, it's more a personal choice. i'm happy with winmo, custom roms, as android users are happy with that os.and yes there are many custom android firmwares for all devices. this means ALL producers don't want to get the max out of a device, in order to make buy a new, more expensive one. Marketing all the way(look @ J B for apple). third, the price : in my country, a brand new omnia 2 is about 250 euros(2 gb version, 300 euros is the 16 gb), while desire is 450. I don't think that 1ghz cpu, with 512 mb ram is worth 150-200 euros.Don't forget omnia 2 has internal storage AND a micro sd slot. Now, about the wi fi, i don't have any issues with my omnia, maybe it's your rom. with 2 lines signal i can browse faster than my 3g+ data connection. and now problems with video streaming, either youtube or live tv.
@ nick . tell me the version of your rom, and i'll provide some dl links for original firmwares. but i'm telling you this : once you got a custom rom, you won't return to the official :)).in fact, a custom rom is BETTER than the official. why? let's see : updated drivers, improved performance, you have the chance to install and keep only the apps you need. I repeat, for all of you that are sick of official roms, check modaco if you really want to see your omnia2 at it's maximum capacity. 3 days ago i just flashed a custom JE3 6.5.3 rom, and i have 250 mb rom and 85 mb ram, AFTER i installed all the apps i need(and there are quite many - about 30), including spb mobile shell(it really brings out the omnia) with naong mobile sense. without naong mobile sense i got about 90 mb ram free. can you tell me the memory specs on your device, with official rom? :)).with all apss/games installed?
don't forget, for most samsungs default apps, there are better third party applications, some free, some "free". we're not allowed to talk about warez, but you get my idea :). like i said before, i'm gonna stick with my omnia2.

Lawrence, 02 Oct 2010There are at least 3 different 6.5.3 roms(JE3,JG2, JH2 for ... moreTks Lawrence for your tips.
I`m actually a little disappointed with Omnia`s performance compared with HTC Desire. Both phones are priced about the same. You tube works so well with HTC Desire even with weak WIFI signal. With the same signal strength, my Omina just would not open the video files, even facebook photos would not download. Only with strong signal, facebook and you tube work. I`ll try modaco.com and hope to spruce my Omnia`s performance. You are right, Samsung Market apps are crappy!
I am definitely going to try Pocket Mechanic. Like you said the damn ghost are still around!

Even so, a simple uninstall with winmo default "remove programs" it's not enough. all apps will leave some ghost registry/folders on you device, eventually ending on hanging/freezing. That's why i recommend an application like pocket mechanic or dinarsoft memmaid. Great apps for cleaning your device registry/folder/system, just like you do with your pc. do this and i guarantee you won't have a freezing device :).

http://www.modaco.com/category/424/i8000-omnia-ii-gsm-rom-discussion/
Just read the tutorial and download the rom that suites you best.
I prefer the ultralite roms, as i get more rom and ram free+ i install only the apps i need. If you are not that much into it, i recommend a normal rom, with all apps and stuff included. Look for kimitza on modaco(thats me) and i will help you further.
