Guest Maxwell Newton Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Hello, I am really bored of the normal samsung today screen, its pretty useless and compared to some skins you can get looks pretty rubbish too... I have tried iFonz, which was actually quite nice once i had replaces the ocons with higher res images, but you had to manualy add in every program or link which was a real pain... I am currently playing with SPB Mobile shell, first impressions are that its nice BUT i cant see a way to remap the buttons so that you can open different programs, for example Pocket player instead of windows media player, but im sure this is easy to do once you know how... Also at the moment i am finding it hard to find a nice skin, xda offers some really nice stuff, but some of them dont work on the omnia...:( A combination of the two would be perfect, the abilities of SPB but with the custimization of iFonz. Basically SPB with moveable/remapable icons... Anyone know how to do this easily? A third option is to try something new, what else is out there in this league? The thing i like about these two is that both of them have options to stop them from being minimised when you press 'Red' / 'End Key' button, which i use a lot! Thanks guys, looking forward to feedback on this as a new skin makes the Omnia feel so much better!

The original was excellent and the new version will hopefully be just as good - released soooooooon (aparently) I hate the word "soon". Looks good though! I'm waiting for it so using M2D for now.

Guest travelbug Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 oh here it is from spb online site: "The new software is fitted with a flexible engine for 3D animation, clever Facebook integration, kinetic scrolling, widgets, and multiple usability innovations.

Guest Maxwell Newton Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 I found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...highlight=ifonz Unfortunately it doesnt run on omnia :( but it has the capability to move around and pin icons, anyone know how we can port this onto omnia until SPB 3 comes out? Btw thanks travelbug for the heads up on that one! Max
