Omnia - Firmware upgrade (HH3)

The following programs are not compatible with the new rom HH3 update:

a. Microsoft Reader

b. Currency Convertor

I guessed both program using the older mobile .NET framework as when I tried to install the .NET framework, it said the newer framework is already installed.

Other interesting info is that the www.onemotoring.com.my on the traffic camera can't be loaded, not sure why. Before upgrading, I can view the traffic cam. The updated rom still cannot play WMA on touch player but you can play it using Windows Media (so not a big deal).

As for web scrolling with media playing in the background, the scrolling becomes too slow. Might be caused by my bluetooth headset, have not tried on the wired headset.

Other features found:

a. The main menu nows come with 2 page and one shortcuts page. You cannot change the mainmenu links but you can add/remove links from the shortcut.

b. GPS detection is now faster from cold start before it takes about 10 to 15 minutes (while moving) and nows is about 5 to 10 minutes (while moving)

c. Smart Reader still the same but notice the OCR is a little faster (no time tested as do not have the previous testing timing), just guts feeling.
