Startscreen & Communication List - Omnia II General

Hello,
I had the HTC Touch Diamond 2 (Topaz) for about one year. Since I destroyed it, I'm searching for a new phone and the Samsung Omnia II is my favourite. I have some questions about functionallities I liked on my old phone.
1. Is it possible to change the Start-Screen like on MaxManilla? This means, I'd like to have
* Date & Time
* Weather
* Alarm-Clock
* The next 3 appointments
* Notifications about new e-mail, SMS and missed calls
* A program launcher with 5 programs
on ONE screen.
2. Is there a program to see the whole communication (E-Mails, SMS, Calls and, maybe, facebook) with one person?
3. Do the applications in TouchWiz share Data like in Sense? I.e. do I see the weather on the calendar, can I click on the adress of someone to see it on Google Maps or can I start a note while a call, which automaticaly fills in the data of this call?
It would be very nice, if a advanced user can answer this question!
Thanks
Willy m.F.

Looking for 3 important programs which work on the HD

Hi at all,
I'm really searching for three programs I would really need. Unfortunately I neither have found them nor found some of them working on the Touch HD.
I hope you can help me. I'm looking for:
1) An SMS-Scheduler with which it is possible to send SMS at a specified date and time. The RJV Sms- Scheduler is crap as it is not possible to enter a phone number because it is supposed to take the numbers from the contacts, but that actually does not work on my touch HD because it only shows 2 of 30 contacts.
2) Is it somehow possible to play a soundfile while phoning with somebody so that the other guy can hear the soundfile? While a phone connection is established, neither the TF3D player nor standalone player can play a soundfile.
3) A call blocker - I would need a program that allows to block incoming phone calls, when I had specified the numbers before.
Do you know some programs which work on WinMob 6.1 and the Touch HD?
Thank you so much in advance!
3. SPB phone suite
can't remember the program i used for 1...
SMS Scheduler
1) Try PowerSMS by Trinket Software. (http://www.trinketsoftware.com/PowerSMS/)
It allows you to schedule SMS and has group SMS funcionality. It's commercial software but it's not expensive. Very good support forum too.

call log in contact notes, had it now its gone?

Thanks for a great site!I was a palm user now WM I have been using,trying a lot of pim managers. I have settled on Pocket Informant because of the ability to change an appointment to task etc. I had tried a program that stored call history in contact note but can't for the life of me figure out what it was.
PS I really like callcalendar,needs some new features and callcalendar2 just kept on crashing.
This is how I use these, and there has got to be a better way.
1.get call(logged by call calendar)
2.change date time of callcalendar entry with description and alarm to task.
3. Schedule,copy Task to appointment. Auto journal entry when checked complete.
There are many more steps when I have to add the new call as a new contact, then try to add name and address to the call when on the phone,in a new contact.
Would like to look at a contact and see call history there also.
I have done this but don't know how.
did i post this in the wrong place&?
sorry i found it it is in call calendar2.I surewish this still had support . A great app!!!!! just not very stable

Add missing WP7/Omnia 7 functionality here

LIVE TILES/HOME SCREEN:
- Power control toggles (e.g. Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS, etc.)
OVERALL
- Marking/selection of any text passage, and
- Copy/paste (wtf, hasn't MS learned anything from the mistakes made by Apple...?)
ALARMS
- Display of alarm icon in the notification area of the 'home screen', when one or more alarms have been set (not ONLY on the lock screen)
PEOPLE
- Ability to save phone number in Call History or Conversations lists to existing/new contact
MEDIA PLAYER
- Sound playback in Bluetooth (+wired?) headphones when watching video content/podcasts
IE BROWSER
- Display of/access to URL in landscape mode
I agree with Copy and Paste, but have only needed it once or twice so am happy to wait until Jan or whenever they're gonna stick it in.
Hadn't noticed the ID landscape thing, but now you've pointed it out I guess they should probably sort that too (although there'd be very little view of the page by the time the keyboard and address bar are displayed in landscape mode)
You can save a number from your call history if you tap it, then at the bottom there's a save button.
The things I'd like to see fixed are:
MAPS
- Get the compass working so I can see what direction I'm walking in
INTERNET EXPLORER
- Ability to change what the search button does, and what page loads when you first start IE after switching the phone on. (T-mobile have managed to set both the homepage and the search button to point to the crappy t-mobile-favourites page, which is a bit annoying)
PICTURES
- See who's tagged in photos (either through Facebook or through Windows Live Photo Gallery)
- Ability to stop photos from Facebook showing up - these may be duplicates from what you've already put on the device
PHONE
- It would be good to have smart dialling available rather than having to go through contacts
One think really annoys me: We cannot disable vibration on back, win and search keys.
Missing Send Contact
I'm not sure if this is missing content or if I'm being too stupid to work it, but that's not my usual style so I'm assuming it's missing till someone puts me straight.
I wanted to send a contact by text (or any other method) today but can't seem to find out how to do this.
Any ideas?
I don't think theres a solution for this.
I heard someone saying before, that there is not a nice way available to send/ copy contact-data.
Bluetooth SIM Access Profile
Anyone know if the Bluetooth SIM Access Profile will be coming in the next update? New phone doesn't work with my bloody car = I feel like I've just stepped back in time
Added the following to the first post:
ALARMS
- Display of alarm icon in the notification area of the 'home screen', when one or more alarms have been set (not ONLY on the lock screen)
Sticky camera settings
CAMERA
--------
I change the settings for the camera every time I take a photo. Particularly the "anti-shaking" setting as I can't seem to take a decent photo with that off. Settings always revert to defaults. Makes you wonder why there is a "Rever to default" option!

I noticed that today, as i also found myself taking better pics with the anti shake on. Other half tried to take a photo of herself and ended up asking me to take the pic, of which i found that setting off....odd
I would like vibrate on screen buttons as well as the hardware buttons.

Switch power off when charging the phone: should have the ability to switch off the phone when it is charging. It is not possible to do it now.
2G/3G toggle: The Omnia & I got from Orange doesn't have the option to toggle between 3G and 2G. It is set for 3G as default
Smart dialing: The dialer should display contacts that match the combination of letters/numbers being dialed
Tasks sync: Outlook should sync tasks in addition to Mail, Contacts and Calendar
Calendars: WP7 should sync all calendars in GMail and Hotmail. It only syncs the default calendar.
My wish list
I'd like:
Folders
Folders - want folders that I can pin items inside, ideally on both main 'Tile' screen and app list. Would really help to be able to organise apps into folders as the list is getting long already.
Volume
Would like different volume controls for Media and ringing. Would like these to be locked when the phone is locked too (unlocking the phone is no hasstle after all).
Caching/Updating
Would like apps like Facebook to cache data (only a few do this). I expect not an OS issue as some apps do it already - having them load from fresh when started is a pain as it means you need signal to look at content. I'd also like these apps to update automatically so content it there when they are opened.
Single Mailbox
Would like a single mailbox for all incoming mail.
Sim Lock
I use a Pin to protect my sim, if I miss entering this in initial boot the phone brings up a home screen but allows Emergancy calls only - getting to a point I can enter the Pin seems pointlessly difficult (seem to have to try and make a call).
Zune
Why is this so unintuitive....get rid of reserved space and clean it up. Content also seems very US centric, online (as in via the website) I can see a load more content than I can see in the app itself, presume this is due to me being in the UK.
Back and Search buttons
Allow apps to lock these buttons, lose count of how many times I have pressed these accidentally when playing a game or a video which gets really annoying.
Power button
Give me a 'do you want to shutdown' prompt, only found my phone turned off in my pocket a few times but not had it that long....the button is too easy to press accidentally and a prompt would solve a lot of these problems.

Orange provide this functionality for me by giving no 3G signal at home, would be better if I could choose to turn it on and off though...reliable 2G at home would also be good...
PEOPLE
- Ability to save phone number in Call History or Conversations lists to existing/new contact
Click to expand...

You can do that.
Just in Call History press the phone number that want to save and then press the Save icon.
my wishlist:
1. PHONE:
- matching contacts should appear when dialling number or texting person's name
- call recording possibility would be a nice touch.
2. PEOPLE huB
- more customisation options (contacts sources sorting/hiding
3. MESSAGING:
- ability to edit MMS settings (MMS APN, default photo size, etc)
4. EMAIL/CALENDAR HUB:
- I do not like the idea of LIVE being leading account - If I add my live accoutn all the contacts and calendars are being fetched from there and synced live.
But I used to keep all my contacts and calendars at gmail - so I had to add gmail as well - that results in a big mess and you cannot turn your added LIVE account now - you might reset your phone to factory defaults and start again.
so I did and while I want my XBOX LIVE avatar I had to move all my contacts and other email providers to LIVE. I did that but now my default outlook calendar doesnt sync with LIVE calendar and WP7 calendar, and there is now ay to have it fixed...
If only MS would allow to choose what to import from LIVE it would be much better...
5. IE - no JAVA, no comment
MARKETPLACE - we need more quality software there
MAPS - I don't like bing approach, maybe I just have to get used to it ?
SERVICE AVAILABILITY - MS you need to start working hard and deliver solutions NOW!
It should not happen that only supported regions during the premiere are UK and US - your services like marketplace or zune don't work in many countries, XBOX Live is not supported in Poland, although there are tens of thousands of xbox360 sold here. I am afraid MS has to rethink their policies and this will be the main factor of WP7 success or fail.
I do not touch areas like multitasking, copy/paste and some other basics that should already be available in updates.
Just realized: Someone's actually made an app for submitting and voting for already submitted ideas for improvements to WP7. It's called "My WP7 Idea", and yes, it already contains my favourite ideas. USE IT!
... and please vote for this feature:

Thank you!

I don't like this thread being mixed wp7 and omnia specific features. wp7 features should go into the wp7 forum.
the omnia should get an app to turn on and off the led for flashlight purposes. other phones have that.

Smartwatch notifying Google calendar events

Dear All,
I am going to buy a smart smartwatch for my wife with the following key features:
1. Indicates today's daz (ie. Mo/Tu...) with relatively large letters.
2. After synchronizing with her smartphore (Huawei) warns Google Calendar notifications by vibration or even indicating the totle of the calendar event.
3. Vibrates at incoming calls. Direct calls from smartwatch is not necessare.
4. Not unisex but ladylike appearance, if possible.
5. Price should be below 100 USD
However, fittness functions are include almost all smartwatches, these are not key features for me.
Eg. THIS smartwatch looks OK for me, I cannot decide whether it includes Google calendar notifications or ot.. Salesgay also did not know it..
Many thanks in advance!
