While most of us are looking for new Android devices, some people are more interested to use Android in their existing devices. At the MoDaCo some are working to port Android to Samsung Omnia.The screenshots, below, suggests that they have achieved some amount of success. The porting team have managed to transfer Android OS onto the phone and get the basic touchscreen support.
Still there are a lot of problems, such as – the touchscreen freezes occasionally,the whole screen turns black sometimes, most of the hardware lacks the Android support, camera cannot be accessed etc.
Omnia is originally a Windows Mobile 6.1 phone, It features a 5-megapixel autofocus camera, a 3.2-inch WQVGA resistive touchscreen, WiFi, 2100MHz 3G, Bluetooth.

Good information. Today I just got a Samsung Omnia SCH-i910 in the mail from ebay, and it presently seems that it’s at stock settings to the Verizon Network. I prepare to use this telephone on Metro PCS. I also wish to set Windows Mobile 6.five on right here, but I’m not certain which purchase I should do this in. Must I consider it to Metro PCS as is and have it activated, after which afterwards flash the ROM with 6.five? Or ought to I modify the ROM first after which carry it to Metro PCS? I’ve been looking all-around and I’m unable to locate the response to this.
