Samsung have released a new ROM for the Omnia - DXIA5 - for download!

Weighing in at a monstrous 280MB(!), members are reporting a raft of new features in the update, including (as reported by members):
  • Asphalt 4 racing game
  • Share Pix (sharing pics to the web)
  • One click settings for Flight mode, BT, Wifi, Vibrate, Motion, Etiquette, Mouse, Flashlight, USB mode
  • Improvements to phonebook application, including improved kinetic scrolling
  • Additions customisable widgets including CNN, Yahoo Stocks, Google search, Weather bar plus an option to download more from Samsung
  • Much improved alarm UI
  • New settings page split into 4 tabs - sound, display, power, memory plus 'All Settings'


Also included are a number of movie trailers, which goes some way to explain the huge download!

The update is targetting Singapore locale phones, so you'll need to tweak your device config if you wish to install on a non Singapore i900. i910 users - do NOT attempt to install this update! Click through to the full topic for a very lively discussion already around this update! :(

It's cool to see Samsung not only bug fixing but also adding features to the device, nice work guys! B)

So.... IA5 WAS NOT A HACKED/HEXED ROM ???

Anyone know if voice commands over phone and bluetooth work or not ?

DZIA5 from Singapore is English with Chinese Input enabled, DXIA5 from Phillipines site Englsih only.

Thanks

based on the cosmetic changes we have now, i think you'll not feel unexpected surprise flashing this official ROM, but i'll think it'll fix bug in IA2.

Yes, you are probably very right, grrrrrr. Damn Samsung!!!!! :(

But on the other hand our experts liads and khuanchai seem to have fixed this problem. Hope they can migrate the soloution to the new rom.

AND... I truly dislike SS Updater roms...

Forces me to switch country which in the process wipes out the 16gig storage

It would be really great if one of our experts could extract the needed parts and make it into the normal "just update" type of roms that we are used to.

This guy from PPCSG updated:-

ok flashed using vista. Total 6 files to flash. Note: during downloading 5th file at 26%,52% & 78% the % will hang for a while so dont panick.

So far I see widget got Accuweather, CNN, Yahoo stocks, Google.

New game

Asphalt4 (seems like a racing car game)

New Programs

Share Pix (seems like u upload pics to the web to share)

Favorite Settings ( to set Sound, Display, Show Battery Power and memory

One click settings: Flight mode, BT, Wifi,Vibrate,Motion,Etiquette,Mouse,Flashlight,USB)

Settings for Enchanced GPS for the auto download when connected to wifi is gone.

storage: 51mb programs: 46mb

Important: backup My storage all deleted due to some videos that comes with the rom.
