Europe and Asia gets the best because people here like quality.

I have NEVER had any problems with my Innov8...(have had it over a year).

> In reply to hamid @ 2009-11-21 20:59 from pT7bI have been looking at the HTC hd2 , the vodafone H1 and Omnia 2..

I think this one is what I am going to buy.

I have 3 different nav programs, Route 66, Garmin and McGuider that work perfect with my INNOV8.

The Innov8 is fantastic and the only reason I want this one is because of bigger screen.

Samsung has screwed me right over once again. I buy an expensive phone which is meant to be the shizz then less than two months later I realize that I've made another mistake, by buying another so called "multimedia monster" mobile phone from samsung.... This all started with the INNOV8 (I8510) and now the Omnia HD (I8910)..... Damn this I'm never buying samsung again. TVs ans electrical appliances are included as I have had problems with samsung in those fields too. I'm sorry for lasing out but this samsung bull***** has to stop at some point.... in fact f it. once the phone is released in USA I know that someone should be able to sue some sense into the company that has sold empty promises for over ten years..

Can anybody let me know how do I upgrade pocket office to edit the documents like word files on Omnia HD? How much would it cost me in New Delhi? Is there any provision of payment in terms of local currency or something other than making online payment for that. I will appreciate a prompt response in this regard.

I bought an Omnia HD a month ago.. It kicks the butts of all other phone.. Has the best camara.. no noise in pic plus so many modes and settings for personolizing..

Video playback,, Killing

Played a HD .avi file with bitrate of 18,000Kbps.i.e 1.8 mbps..
Sad Nokia, apple and others.. cant go beyond 2.5 to 3 mbps..

Video recording
HD .avi at 8000kbps

Display..
Play same video simultaneous on Omnia an iphone and u'll feel the iphone's screen is white..

Copy paste,
Copy pasted 300Mb from mass memory to memory card in 2.5 mins..

Browser issues???
Use opera mobile 10.. smoother than iphones safari plus download..ya but there is flash player 10 in its phone browser..

Battery
Normal use-Watch HD videos, talk, click some pics, browse net-continously--- 3.5 hrs-- battery 100 to one stroke,,

On one bar of battery Whatched entire 3 hrs movies but still no sign of battery low...

BEST MOBILE IN WORLD no doubt..

I was just pointing out that the "HD" video seems to be overhyped. GSMarena has stated quite a few problems. However, i will be looking forward to the other samsung phone with 12 mp which is capable of HD which seems much better.

I'll provide u with the links that i used to get my firmware source files. i will also guide u as to how to alter the file paths in order to have a smooth and successful flash. make sure u have windows XP OS and all will be fine! The accelerometer has add functions where it stops the music and video and calls and alarm. But u have two options :-
1. flash to the italian IG2 firmware then use PC Studio to update to XXII1

2. flash directly to XXII1 like i did

Lost of games and converter is not a must since i only flashed my phone last night and i still have full access to my converter and instead of one i got three games so i doubt that u will lose anything. maybe its the firmware that u flashed too, i flashed to the latest italian I8910XXII1 firmware so i have all the updates!

to people wanting to flash the firmware!!

flashing firmware will cause your phone to delete factory converter, dictionary, and asphalt 4 game!!!!!!!!!!! you can never get it back. Unless you can find it online. I tried to reinstall the factory converter and dictionary without success. Can't find it anywhere on samsung sites!!!!!

In order for u to go back to your original firmware you must first find have the firmware on stand by so that u can re-flash your phone! I give u a link, see if ur firmware is in the list!

I'm at work right now so i cant access the link here, but i'll do so when i get home! The process itself isnt as simple as the video attached shows(TRUST ME, u still need to alter the file path and only then will it work! There is alot of copying and renaming involved as well! My phone still has the bootloader, the pc studio is still responding, the only difference is that in addition to asphalt there is a poker game and some other game, there a few more widgets and the download folder i mentioned in the earlier post is like an app store shortcut but most of the apps aren't free! the browser responds quicker and it loads faster! but the basic interface is the same just a few improvements! I'm not sure if the flashed would affect your language pack but if it is stored in the mass memory then its not affected when flashed! But be sure to have Windows XP OS! 'll give u the link!
