The OMH technology is compatible only with the CDMA platform. Since the network settings for the CDMA handsets have shifted from the phone to the OMH SIM card. This shift has created a demand for phones that support OMH technology.
This OMH launch represents a paradigm shift in the dynamics of the CDMA ecosystem with consumers now having the flexibility to choose an operator at their will at any point in time. OMH empowers a CDMA customer as never before and will serve to fuel the growth in the CDMA handset market. We at Samsung are proud to be leading this innovation with Qualcomm and appreciate the support given by CDMA operators towards popularizing OMH.”
“At Samsung, last year we took the first step towards giving consumers flexibility in CDMA by launching our Mpower series handset to work with CDMA connections from operators Reliance Mobile, Tata Indicom and Virgin Mobile. Today, true to our ‘Next is What’ philosophy, we have taken a significant step forward with the launch of the OMH compliant Mpower 699,
The process to switch from the old R-UIM/SIM connections to the new OMH SIM cards is quite simple. This has further increased the popularity of the OMH technology. Moreover, the new OMH technology phones also support the older existing R-UIM/SIM for voice and SMS as well as data services. Apart from this, the OMH SIM also features backward compatibility. It supports all previously launched CDMA handsets that support R-UIM/SIM.
