Does anyone contacted orange???? Imo unlocking will not sort the problem of third party apps. Probably software need to be loaded again.
Maybe orange has blocked all third party apps. And we have to by them only from orange. I don't know what to do-this phone is becoming useless and slowly hated ;-(

      Vidas, i think u might be right as all the reviews for this phone were based on sim-free handsets. if this is the case, will it help if i get the phone unlocked, i know its folking out more money but i deeply love this phone

        has anyone experienced such probs on the symbian 5800 on orange? coz its the same OS as the i8910 hence the problem might not be the OS on orange but Samsung based.

          Guys, Stefan, Mark, James, all guys here in UK, is it possible that this problem with applications is only on Orange branded Omnia HDs???
          Maybe Orange spoiled something with the software, while the SIM-free Omnia HDs will not have this problem with 3rd part applications?
          What do you think?

                I tested the stand alone audio recorder at its highest quality....
                AAC LC
                Sample rate: 48000 Sample/sec
                Bits per sample: 16 Bit/Sample
                Play channel: 2 Channel
                Bit rate: 1536 KBit/sec (this doesn't seem right?)

                QUOTED

                So the phone really can record decent audio...

                    I've tried installing opera mini, it installs but, u cannot use it, if you try to scroll, it cannot scroll, you can't click on anything in the opera mini. I tried installing gravity, talking dictionary and twittix for Nokia 5800 on Omnia hd, but it says file not supported. Its like it doesn't support any sis files, themes cannot install too, it says file not supported. any sis file i install tells me file not supported.

                    I will return it tommorrow, but i will try hard to find any apps working for it today, if i don't see i will return it tommorrow. may be i'll wait till June till other phones are released and choose another phone. thanks

                          Don't tell me no third party symbian applications can be intalled in this phone. Isn't this a symbian os smartphone? Ridiculous! Pls confirm as I am ready to buy as soon as released here in HONG KONG. I am too much attracted by the specs and the 3.7 inch screen of this phone. Even java applications such as opera mini, mmail etc cannot be installed? I cannot believe what Samsung has done to this phone then!!

                                      Too bad it's not application-wise. I really wish the creator of omnia hd was Nokia. Samsung programmers are quite brainless.

                                        To all those people who have the phone already,

                                        Has anyone been able to install any 3rd party applications (such as those for 5800) and have them working 100%. If you haven't, what sort of error message do you get? Thanks:)
