One one I can quickly mention is that the copy/paste does not work in the built in RSS feed and Podcast program "add new subscription" screens. Which is really annoying. I hate having hand type in the usually nonsensical , super long addresses.

This was a problem in the HI1 as well as the one I had before that the HH3.

I know they're are other, better programs out there for both RSS and Podcasts, but those ones are built in and work just fine. Once you spend 10 mins typing.

yeah, have same problem, it seems that field is not the usual text field, even CTRL-V doesnt even work, what i did is get all my RSS feeds in firefox, with the help of add-on OPML, i saved all the RSS links to an OPML file, copy that file to omnia and do an import on the omnia's RSS application.

Totally works!

Holy cow thanks. I was really hoping WinMobile had keyboard shortcuts, but I just kept typing CTRL V with the samsung keypad, like a fool.

MassiveAttack- Like Paul says, you have to bring up that crappy Black and white mini keyboard that's built into Windows Mobile, make sure you have some text to paste and click ctrl, which inverts that key, and then press V.


OK- here's another. I have my GPRS settings setup (With t-mobile $5.99 internet) correctly (I.e. I can browse the internet with Opera and IE, Google Maps works and I can send and recive e-mail , Automatically).

I also have my WiFi setup correctly so I can connect at work, home and a few random places with unsecrued access. The bug is that the Omnia's e-mail client will always connect to GPRS to receive mail, even when already connected to WIFI, unless I go deep into the e-mail options menu and select "The Internet" under "Advanced Server Settings" in the Outgoing SMTP mail server screen. But I can't leave it set that way becuase then the problem becomes that it will no longer connect to GPRS when WiFi is no longer available! So I have to change it back to "T-zones GPRS"

Everything else starts GPRS when necessary or uses Wifi when already connected to it.

Had this problem since , HH3, Hi1.

Another Quick one, If you select the "My Storage" (the near 16gb partition) as the default download location in the PodCast program... and press the Power button to "turn off the screen" while downloading the download will fail. I'm assuming that the large partition is shutdown to save battery power or something because I've had a few issues with programs installed there that don't work quite right when the phone is in standby. (OLDsap, vTap)

It did this in the HH3 and Hi1.

However, an actual fix in the hi2 firmware is that while you are downloading a podcast, to either "My Device" or "My Storage" it will not longer automatically go into standby, killing your download after like 2 mins. Just hold down the END key to lock the screen and you can put it back in your pocket before your boss notices.
Also, it lets you redownload podcasts now without deleting the previous partial download!

EDIT:
Downloading a Podcast directly to the storage partition is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay slow. A 15mb file took about 10 mins to get close to done, via wifi, before I canceled it. After selecting My Device, that same file took like 2 mins. I wonder if downloading files to the storage is slower with all programs...

That makes perfect sense! is it true? does the "My Storage" get shut down or switches off while the phone is in standby mode? because sometimes when I press the power button to wake the phone, my storage is disappeared and anything installed in it "obviously" not accessible. I am on HI2, I don't get the "My Storage2" anymore, but the "My Storage" is not there until I do a soft reset... do you think I have a faulty unit? or is it from the HI2? I have everything installed on the "My Storage" including mail attachments and anything possibly movable to "My Storage". Thanks guys.

Still checking some things on that. I had Oldsap oist 1.4 installed to the My storage. It works alongside the WinMobile text alert settings that lets you use a individual .wav for each individual contact. That way I can give my girly her own tone and then ignore that one...j/k..

It would work I like a charm when I was activly using the Omnia, but everytime I got a text with the phone in my pocket it would just vibe but make no noise.
The .wavs were also in the My Storage area.

Once I re-installed that program and the .wavs it needed to access to the the My storage area, It was all good. all the time!

Now If i can just get touch player to stop loading them and my ringtones into my playlist library, i'll be happy!

people, I need to do a hard reset on my phone because my F%$#&@ wifi is "broken"

should I simply do a hard reset and keep HI1 or should I upgrade to HI2?

What do you recommend?

Yup, not working, I am in Dubai and in google maps it is showing me somewhere in the Paraguay!!! but hey, we shouldn't be that mad, I think these are Samsung's internal testing ROMs and we are testing it... in official release ROMs I believe all these issues would be fixed, right Samsung? dry.gif


I'm in Italy and looks working well.. strange! I've cheked the coordinates with Google Maps.

EDIT: I was wrong, didn't consider the S/W - N/E things.. you are right guys, ss bug!

On HI1 at least, when I send / receive an IMAP account, it stops doing so if I press the power button. Annoying!

Today I got the black screen "of death", although it was back lit. I would get sounds when i clicked. It randomly did it after i tried to pull it out of sleep mode.

One soft reset and it was working again.

In retrospect i should have tried to blindly unlock the screen to see if that would have kick started it.
