        Well I am still using Hyper X custom firmware HX v11 with my Omnia HD, I have found a way to safely use the full 950MHz overclock setting without hurting battery performance, the Omnia HD is now a near perfect device and when you look at the 2009 specifications over the latest and greatest Nokia device the X7 its still amazing that Samsung with the help of the firmware modding community in short showed Nokia that it made the best Symbian S60v5 device ever.

        In terms of the new S^3 over S60v5 the main difference is that S60v5 sadly uses single tap/double tap method to enter sub menus / settings whereas S^3 is basically all single tap and of course minor changes to connectivity options but S60v5 and S^3 are pretty much similar to use in operation.

        Looking at the new Nokia X7 over the much older Omnia HD, in standard "Samsung" firmware mode the Omnia HD is useless but Omnia HD owners are fortunate that their was a large firmware modding community whether it was was Hyper X or Faenil at least we had over the last 18 months to have the Omnia HD right up their with the best of Nokia Symbian devices.

        The X7 has a 4" AMOLED screen with 360x640 resolution v the Omnia HD 3.7" AMOLED screen with 360x640 screen.

        The X7 still has 256MB of RAM, the Omnia HD has 256MB of RAM.

        The X7 has dual stereo speakers, the Omnia HD has dual stereo speakers.

        The X7 has 8MP FFC (Fixed Focus Camera) with Dual LED flash that also does 720p HD 25fps approx 10Mbps bitrate MP4 video recording, the Omnia HD 8MB AFC (Auto Focus Camera) with LED flash that also does 720p HD 23fps approx 10Mbps bitrate(when using HX based firmware) MP4 video recording.

        The X7 uses an ARM A11 680MHz CPU the Omnia HD has the ARM A8 600MHz CPU in standard mode and you can safely overlock it to a max 950MHz (using HX v11 firmware) or if you want you can use the dynamic mode to have up to 3 levels of performance, on my end I have the HX patcher set to "Locked, Max Performance 950MHz for all 3 levels" for the last 3 months with no issues at all.

        For a 2009 device to still basically show that it can not only hang with new devices but in some cases beat the latest and greatest especially from Nokia shows that the Omnia HD was a monster back in the day, imagine in Samsung actually did really get 100% behind it, sadly they failed to understand what they had created and have now totally dropped the platform but at least we had the dedicated firmware modding community to not only keep alive the Omnia HD but to make it better and relevant against the best of S^3 from Nokia and even some mid range Android OS handsets.

          AnonD-13609, 20 Jul 2011thx bro :) do u think that galaxy sl i9003 will give me wha... moreGalaxy SL has LCD screen.. on the other hand, Galaxy S has Super Amoled.. if I make a decision among them, I will choose Galaxy S I9000.. They showed Galaxy SL as a better version of Galaxy S but I don't agree with it.
          Super Amoled screen is better.. so choose Galaxy S..

                    People go to i8910tuning.com to get the latest custom firmware for your Omnia HD. This will probably be the last firmware to be made for this phone. If you like it, please make a donation to Faenil. He has worked hard for us and released his final firmware after months of hardwork.

                    Regards ;-)

                      ABDO EL PRINCE, 12 Jul 2011realy in my opinion its an amaizing phone with hd vedio and... moreyeah I8910 challenges with Nokia N8 and X7 but this makes no sense. I don't like Nokia's new smartphones. So beating them does not impress me. There are much better phones now.
                      Especially Galaxy S2,HTC Sensation,LG Optimus 2X etc..
                      It is important to keep up with brand new technology..
                      Nokia N8 does not success this, neither I8910.
                      I love it(I8910) but as I mentioned before: SYMBIAN is not ENOUGH!!!

                                      1) type *#0*# from the dialer and this gets you to Test Screen.
                                      u can choose the Front Cam Test (or sth like that,I don't remember exactly but you can find it easily)

                                      2) By an application (called Flashlight or Torch) you can be able to use the LED flashlight without using camera.
                                      (But the application needs to be signed)
