I have this much talked about phone and have a few questions:

1. Everytime i try to send MMS, It says memory full when there is nothing at all.

2. I can not activate the GPS and it tells me no space.

3. If sometimes when the phone switches off and you are trying to switch on over the touch screen, you poke so many times and it does not respond.

4. If i want to send a message and i go menu, messages then new- it does not respond.

May some one help me or shed some advice

      Hi all South Africa users, I've upgraded to the latest firmware and now for the first time I can use my Omnia properly!!! Even the GPS seems to work fine, not taking 10 minutes to recommence navigating when receiving a call. Make sure you download the JC1C from the Samsungblog website on a good connection; its about 220Mb but very worth it. Thanks mr Sean Kirk for responding quickly to my distress call the other day.

                      Would you happen to know how much it'll cost me to have my exterior screen panel replaced? I dropped my set of keys right smack my i900 several months back. I asked Samsung (in greenbelt) how much it'll cost me to get it replaced and they quoted 2.5K. I was just wondering if you know if the price has changed. I know there are much cheaper shops that can replace the front screen but I would only turn my unit over to a Samsung shop :D

                      The damage is small and does not affect the touchscreen in any way, but I am annoyed by it now and I want to purchase a Zagg Invisible Shield (just the front part).

If there are complaints on the DXIA5 then I am sure that a new ROM will be coming out soon. I guess people are satisfied with the DXIA5.

                          1. Applications suddenly stop working
                          2. Storage space is reduced significantly and in an unexplained manner.
                          3. If you're using your smartphone to store your credentials (passwords, credit card info), it may take some time before you'll notice but you may encounter account hi-jacks, unexplained CC billing etc.

I ... moreyou said 2 years w/Omnia and still you can't do things right?tell you what : i used Omnia less than 3 months but i've overcame them because those problems are already solved in previous postings here in Gsmarena,so if you're still experiencing them or worse you didn't look at earlier postings it's obvious that you're not doing any effort to make your Omnia better,but hey it's a Smartphone for a smart person who knows how to use it and certainly not for dull lazy person.

                              To all Omnia user: i've read several postings about Omnia regarding antivirus,i can't help but to ask a question,which is "is there a virus out there that could infected winmo OS?"logically since it's windows we're talking here,is it also possible for PC virus infected winmo Os?so far i've browsed to many sites and"sites" (you should get the drift of "..."means)and it's still safe for my Omnia,one more thing :does anyone knows what kind of symptoms appear should our lovely Omnia is infected w/a virus?

                                      are you sure the phone that you have is a genuine OMNIA? it seems it is not. because i can do all the things that you are complaining about to my OMNIA like using songs as ringtone or alarm.

                                      or maybe, you just don't know how to use it. maybe the problem is not the phone itself, but it is you.....
