Nokia Messaging working on the Samsung i8910 Omnia HD
Posted by soHD in Applications, News, Tips & Tricks, tags: Nokia Messaging
Nokia Messaging is a service that allows users to set up, access and use their email including a push service. Despite operating on a number of S60 devices, Nokia only supports its own handsets for this service. However, HDBlog.it is reporting that it has managed to get Nokia Messaging v10.00.14 working on a Samsung i8910 Omnia HD handset (which of course runs on Symbian S60 5th Edition).
There is a slight caveat though, you need to install the HelloOX v1.03 hack to get Nokia Messaging to work. Then you need to sign up to the Nokia Messaging service online to create an account. The program link to download will then be sent via SMS to the handset. Once you’ve installed the program and entered the password and followed the setup instructions, you will have access to your mail including push functionality.
Judging by the pictures on the HDBlog.it site, it appeared to work flawlessly once working. Now all we need is a widget that shows emails on the homescreen as seen in the Nokia N97. Hopefully, that can’t be too far away either. Has anyone managed to get this working yet? We’d love to hear your experiences in the comments below.

Nokia has become a quite good software developer, too bad they forgot how to make phones

Nice. Does this mean we could hack all those cool N97 widgets over to the Omnia HD?
Got Nokia Messaging working with GMail (POP) on my i8910. Seems to be functioning fine. Will see if messages pop up!
For full push HTML email on the Samsung i8910 just use the bundled copy of Roadsync. You’ll need to upgrade Roadsync to v4004, but once done, you can sync all your Gmail folders, calendar and contacts with full push HTML email. Much better than Nokia Messaging although you can only set up the one account.
