03 May 09 Verizon Samsung Omnia Runs on Windows Mobile 6.5 Already?
It looks like the first Windows Mobile 6.5 running device is the Samsung i910 Omnia and not the Touch Pro2 or Touch Diamond2 from HTC. How is that possible you ask? Well it seems that a cooked up Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM is out there available to install on the Omnia. The custom ROM will strip the Verizon Wireless Samsung Omnia of some applications like VZ Navigator, VZ AppZone, Digital Frame, Shozu, Silver Inbox and more but it cludes various apps like Google Maps, the YouTube player and the WM 6.5 Facebook application.
In order to properly flash your device you’d better get your hands on an XP-powered machine with USB 2.0 port. Simply follow the link for specific installation details.
