More storage than expected on the Omnia Pro.


Here’s what it say on the phone folks. A few surprises. At least for me!

Program RAM. As expected. 256MB.

Main storage. Program and OS space. 512MB. Actually a surprise to me. I thought the main storage would all be as one ‘partition.’ Here’s the real surprise though…

Internal storage (this isn’t the MicroSD card) is 2GB, not 1GB as Samsung said. OK, it’s not the 32GB that some devices have but it’s double what was expected!

    In a way it’s normal. When a device has large internal like the Omnia, the always put 2 different “disks” inside. I’m almost sure its not even 2 partitions its two different “disks”.
    What is curious is the reserved space on the storage disk. My guess is that, that reserved is the main OS in different language. What happened when you changed language? What happened? Did it HARDRESET? Re-flashed the ROM?

    I Think it would be interesting for users to know what happens when you change the language on the omnia pro.
    Normally there isn’t an option on the OS itself that allows you to change language (at least in all the devices I’ve used so far), so that’s a really new feature. At the mater of fact, on every device I’ve used until today you can only change the language by hacking device (You can read about it at forum.xda-developers.com, if you’re not familiar with HARDSPL). HTC for example, has a country or region lock (nothing to with SIM lock) on all their devices that doesn’t allow you to flash any other language besides the one you bought it with.

    From what I’ve seen so far, OMNIA PRO, looks a very interesting devices with really interesting new features to the windows mobile world. The highly customizable UI and language options are two A++ features to me.

    All the best,

    Joao.

      Hi Basso.
      When changing the language it looks like a complete ROM refresh. All settings and files are lost from main memory and it takes 10 minutes. It’s a great feature and one i’m really pleased to see!

        Hi.

        That’s what I though. Yes, its a great feature not many devices around supports this and they should. If you can easy change language on every mobile phone, why not on Windows Mobile ones? It was about time for someone to start changing this.
