Porting Apps and Widgets from new Samsung T*Omnia SCH-M490 - XPERIA X1 General

I already tried to port apps from the original Omnia but because of the lack of WVGA screen resolution it was not successful. Now I read that Samsung has released the T*Omnia SCH-M490 in Korea with a screen resolution of 480 x 800
So there is a chance to port some omnia apps to xperia and create an omnia rom or even an omnia panel for our X1. I really like the idea to port apps and widgets from the T*Omnia to the Xperia like it already worked for the TF3D from Blackstone.
So we need some extracted apps from the new omnia in order to start development. May be some Blackstone users will also be interested in this topic. Please post your Ideas or extracted apps in this post.

Omnia interface...
I know this isn't the real thing, but it looks pretty good. If you've got spb Mobile Shell v2.0, you can install this Omnia interface skin for it.
Scroll down the programs to find the entry
The site linked above also has loads of other great free apps.

i have the same problem !
Im also having this problem. Has anyone found a way to change it to VGA mode somehow?
Same problem here.
In my case, the diamond dosn't show all the picture. If VGA has a higher resolution than QVGA, it should apear a picture smaller than the screen... no?¿
Any trick to sove this?¿

Anyone Porting Panels to the Touch HD?

Hi
I see the TF3D from the Touch Hd has been cab'd and is running on the X1 (mine included)... but has anyone (point me if i'm being blind) started to port the X1 panels ready for the Touch HD>??
That would be funky!!!
come on guys... someone must have thought about it...
I got a X1 that i can dump from ... but just needs a chef to 'massage' it into a touch HD .. screen and res is the same.. made by the same.. so should be easy/easier???
Porting the panels to a TouchHD would be a lot different than importing TF3D to an X1. TF3D is just a today screen shell/plugin. The panel interface doesn't do that..you would literally need to dump and install the entire X1 rom onto a touch HD and replace whats there now.

Nope, not correct.
Why its "easier" with tf3d is because HTC is making the roms with packages now, rather then dump it all in OEMAPPS etc...
The panel can be extracted as well, but thats not a task im gonna do..Im rather gonna remove it totally when I get a fully working kitchen, hard-spl etcetc..

X1 theme on this phone??

hi is there any theme for the universal that makes it look like the se x1?? or a rom. a future rom even better.there are some roms that make the uni look like the diamond . so can someone do the same and for the xperia??
not sure what you mean by as x1
as x1 have panels so
1 you want panels
or
2 you want a theme that look like 1 of the panels
in the blackstone forum they made panels work
you should check it out for more info
mind you blackstone got the same res as x1 so
could be a problem with universal
yes i mean the panels thing.where is that blackstone forum

[APP] PLAzmA Rhodium (black) VGA Today Mod (BETA 1)

I recently hard reset my phone, as im still running the stock rom, it drives me up the wall having put back my theme mods.
So ive made a cab which will install:
flat black start/program bar today theme tsk (no more beveled bar)
large start menu background (if you have touchflow large start menu on)
flat black wallpaper
works great with Manila Rhodium VGA
Mirror: http://rapidshare.com/files/213475619/PLAzmA_Black_Mod_Pack.cab.html
So all those nice Rhodium Apps are not running on the Omnia, is that right?
But why? Because different Screen-Resolution or because its not a HTC-Device?

the release by XBmod is VGA, it was originally ported from WVGA i belive, as long as you can find a version thats the right resolution it should run, no idea where you can get it maybe ask xbmod if the extracted it or has it in cab format.

1. The Omnia has different graphics hardware than the HTC Touch Diamond-Pro series (which just so happens to be the same hardware on the upcoming second generation aka Rhodium and Topaz or Pro2 and Diamond2) which have an ATI chip. The Omnia has and Intel Xscale Direct 3D chip which is integrated into the CPU. I believe the Diamond and Pro's card is not and is totally separate.
2. The Omnia runs at 400x320 or WQVGA. The Blackstone runs at 800x480 WVGA as well so installing on the Blackstone was as simple as cabbing it up (which btw isn't so simple). The Touch Pro and Diamond run at 640x480 and porting Manila2 to these devices was hard enough.
3. There is already Manila 2D from the Touch 3G and Opal (iolite) working on the Omnia which is good enough. Check this out if you already haven't (http://www.modaco.com/content/i9x0-omnia-http-omnia-modaco-com/273892/complete-install-guide-for-manila-touchflo-2d-on-i900/)
thanx for this plazma. works great on my touch pro.
one request however, it works fine in portrait mode but not in landscape. is it possible you can add that in as well?

Depends... Things like TF3D themes then No as they are customized for the screen resolution, ie QVGA, WVGA, VGA, so pick carefully or your flobar will be in the middle of your screen.
Top Icons should be a yes, they all use 32x32 ico files within the dll, so it should be ok, but not tested this. However, I did load so many with my Blackstone and they were all fine. Note that there are CMDA versions and GSM versions.
Pictures you will just have to get 480x800 pictures for backgrounds.
