Guest the-jackal Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 (edited) CamerAware - i900 skin coming shortly - even if you don't buy the speed camera option, it's great for online tracking, seeing your GPS stats and earning points with Navizon! - details - http://www.cameraware.net/cameraware3.cab Does this work on the Omnia yet? Only I installed it but it does not seem to work. All I get is: An error massage cannot be displayed because an optional resource assembly containing it cannot be found.

Guest Blossom Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 i experienced a lot of difficulties with ftouch sl using omnia. does anyone also the same problem with me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest k.shinra Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 i experienced a lot of difficulties with ftouch sl using omnia. does anyone also the same problem with me? Yeah my Omnia doesnt work very well with the ftouchsl, however once i set an array of exceptions for all touch flow style apps that samsung added (i.e. phone book, main menu etc...) it worked much better, i then proceeded to remove all but one side gesture, the (the right side) as it seems to be the only gesture that works and that is intemitent. It seems that only having the right gesture increases my chances lol, the corner gestures didnt work at all... also the scroll bar removal feature (list/menu navigation) is intimitent... im gonna put it on my boss' tytn 2 and to see if it works well on that. it would be nice to have a fully functioning version on my omnia, i will report this to the people at touchflow and see what they have to say about this.

Guest blackhorse Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 i dont understand... what update? Sorry i mean Samsung implemented their own kind of touch flow in the HH update, which was the only reason i got TouchFlow as i really wanted to be able to drag the menus about with a finger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest natzakaria Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Is there an application that can disconnect GPRS/EDGE/3G connection with a single button when you are connected? If so please advise as I used to kill the active connection on my TyTn by pressing the end button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sheffield_rob Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Is there an application that logs the amount of data used on the internet so I dont go over my 500mb per month? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geronymous Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Is there an application that can disconnect GPRS/EDGE/3G connection with a single button when you are connected? If so please advise as I used to kill the active connection on my TyTn by pressing the end button. You can do exactly as you did with your TyTn if you select that option in Settings/Buttons/End Key... but then you loose the "Lock Device" functionality... requires holding the "end key" btw.
