Paul's must have FREE i900 Omnia software

[Guest Paul (MVP)]

I always have Live Search and GMaps installed, sometimes something i'm looking for can't be found on one but is on the other :D

Thanks for the thread ... guess you noticed the big hint!

[Guest the-jackal]

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 Paul (MVP)]

It will as soon as I finish the i900 skin :D

Cool. Thats what I thought but seeing as a link was provided I thought it may work but not full screen or something like that.

Cheers again Paul. :D

[Guest chaimd]

Thank you for your convenient list.

FYI, chgFingerMouse for SGH-i780 works with OMNIA, too.

[Guest Paul (MVP)]

Sweet, will have to grab that from a i780 ROM.

Here is a very good addon for the builtin file explorer called File Explorer Extension, adds some needed functions for free:

i experienced a lot of difficulties with ftouch sl using omnia.

does anyone also the same problem with me?

[Guest k.shinra]

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.

Yea im happy with Samsungs update to this item

[Guest k.shinra]

Yea im happy with Samsungs update to this item

i dont understand... what update?

[Guest blackhorse]

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

[Guest natzakaria]

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.

[Guest sheffield_rob]

Is there an application that logs the amount of data used on the internet so I dont go over my 500mb per month? Cheers

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.

[Guest natzakaria]

Yes thats the problem - I wish to have both - is there a software that does that?

[Guest cidriver]

How about the Iphone icons?

Omnia icons look as my first device (2001)

Thank you to all of you

Samung Today 1 with S2U does the same thing without the slowdown
