Hi been looking everywhere on this site and all over the net and I cant really find any themes that fit my samsung omnia which has wqvga resolution. Can someone please help me find some as I really want some of the really good themes on this board but I dont know which ones fit wqvga.
thanks
Hello my friend :]
These are some themes specially designed for samsung omnia that
Supports Resolutions:
QVGA (240x320)
WQVGA (240x400)
VGA (480x640)
http://www.imarche.net/omnia/
===================
Installation Instructions:
-------------------------
1) If you haven't installed mobile shell before, skip to step 2.
Run UnInstall.mscr to REMOVE the previous version (this will completely remove the
'SpbMobileShellSkins' folder from your "My Storage" / "Storage Card".)
2) Extract the .zip file into the root of your desired storage location.
3) Using your device, open File Explorer and find your desired installation
location (as above). Go to 'SpbMobileShellSkins\Scripts'. In here run the
file 'Mortscipt.exe'. This will enable the other scripts to run.
4) In File Explorer, run the file "Install_WQVGA.mscr"and set your LANGUAGE.
5) You will notice 28 other scripts like Luna_Paper.mscr. Each time you run
one of these, when you go to SPBShell/Programs/Tools/SBP Skins a new skin
will become available. If you want all 28, then run all 28 scripts.
Check the website for screenshots.
6) SOFT RESET the device or run the script "ScanStatus.mscr".
Having trouble?
- If all goes wrong, or you don't like the new skins, you can revert to
the original skin by running the 'Orignal.mscr' script!
- If the link into the Spb Skins sub-menu doesn't work, CREATE IT AGAIN
tapping on the relative .mscr script from the Scripts folder.
==========================================
TIP : you can perform a system format incase something goes wrong with your omnia by switching the phone on while holding both call and end call . This will allow you to format the device and go back to initial setting like the first time you switched your omnia on.
ok thanks but how come all the people on here that are making class themes dont make em for wqvga aswell?
first: a skin for what ???
second: omnia is new and the only phone with that resolution and making a skin needs many days of work. so why should anyone do that for one percent of the users for free?
first: why are u having a go im only askin
second: the phone has been out for months and this is a place littered with wm themes so im askin if theres any for omnia and why there isnt
third: get over yaself
whats your problem ?
i just asked you for what application you want a theme/skin because you wrote nothing about it. and then i answered your question why there aren't so many out. so please dont post here anymore if you have a question or need help noob.
bad..
the first three posts and what an awful behaviour....
First while there is a wealth of WM information on this forum just remember at the end of the day this is a HTC Forum, not a Samsung Forum.
With that said, I'm a omnia user as well and I would suggest you check out some other forums like Modaco as they have a specific forum for Omnia and you will find more information you might be looking for there.
There will be some discussion on xda forum and I make it a habit to keep in touch with several forums as to broaden my knowledge base.

Hi, I have been porting a couple of ROMs for my i900 and have managed to get it up and running. Now I want to see what areas I can improve...
I have the following folders within SYS that I'm not sure what they do and want to know if they can go or not:
1. sim_tkit, I have a version of this under oemdrivers, which should I keep?
2. fwupdate, from my forum search then most of this can go except for packageinfoapi.dll?
3. SMIME, what is this?
4. SQLcemobile, was told this can go, what is it needed for?
5. SQL, what is this needed for? Was told this should be updated to 3.5, where can I get that package?
Thanks
Steven

Hi guys. i have recently decided to keep my omnia II running on WM6.1
can anyone pls suggest useful apps that i can install on it?
what are the necessary apps that i need to install?
can i also put sense2.5?
Hope the thread below can help you a bit..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630060
Wow!!! Thanks a lot Aafi. I'll have a look at them now and decide what to install. Are all of these applications have a link here or do i need to modaco?
I have the same list posted on Modaco as well..
And for the apps and games.. there are no links available B'coz most of them are paid ones..
you will have to google them to find the trial version.. check and then buy..
This one is the most exhaustive and continuously updated. Amazing...

OK, I fixed it. This is what I did:
First - Killed Market App using System Panel Lite. Then went into manage applications in settings and uninstalled the market app (don't worry it just deletes all market data. App is still there.)
Then follow these steps:
1 - Need root (got it from modaco ROM)
2 - downloaded root explorer from market.
3 - download the attached build.prop from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7081243&postcount=84
4 - Connected phone to PC and copied it to root directory as seen on pc
5 - Opened root explorer, mount the file system (clicked on RW at the top)
5 - Went to /system rename build.prop to build.prop.bak (long press)
6 - Copy build.prop from /sdcard to /system
7 - Rebooted system
8 - Ran market again

I even surf to Maize website to try to download from my Galaxy but its File Not Found error...
Any idea what is happening? Thanks.

Astro file manager not in market place
Hello,
I can't find or download the "astro file manager" from android market place. Even if I go via the vendor's homepage or the QR codes.
Can anybody post it here or tell me a working link for the apk-file?
Thx,
Walter
try going to metago dot net (on your phone)
then click on the download tab
See if that works.
I tried it before but it didn't work.
After resetting the phone to factory defaults I find Astro in market place but all installed applications must be reinstalled.
Can any of the previous installed apps block market place for specific apps? Are there any known apps which act like that?
You can download it from here: http://www.androidfreeware.org/
Download it man

URGENT: my phone doesn't have android market what should I do?
Hello Everyone and first of all let me congrat svetius on opening this new sub-forum dedicated to Galaxy S hopefully it will grow bigger and surpass the HTC and other Sub-Forums
Second I hope that you welcome me guys and hopefully I will try to be a useful member in this forum and I hope that all the members here are helpful and friendly as well (well ofcourse it is it's the XDA forum afterall )
ahem ok lets get to the point the moment I saw the samsung galaxy S I knew it would be my next phone and the true successor to my old omnia HD (hopefully Samsung's support for the new phone will be better than i8910) and yesterday I had the chance to test it out... the Galaxy S was released last week in Dubai and to my surprise it had Arabic language support! well some of you might wonder whats the deal with arabic support well let me tell samsung is the FIRST company to add arabic language in an android OS/phone which is btw not officially supported by google (there is no arabic language in official android rom) therefore I salute samsung for thier costumer support
NOW my main problem is that there is NO market app in the phone which is a shock!! what's the use of an android phone with no access to market it's useless in my opinion... the irony is that my country is the only country in the region that doesn't have android market support which sucks since i've been waiting for this phone for 6 months
right now I have two options: import the phone and have arabic+market but lose the warranty in the process OR buy it here and enjoy all the benefits of the warranty and the official samsung support but have no access to android market what-so-ever
is there is any way I can add the android market app to my phone through the means of root or anyway around?
appreciate the help guys
The other alternative might be to install one of the ROMs from a different region.
Android Market is illegal in U.A.E. and K.S.A. I heard of a software called Market enabler but I'm not sure how it works or if you need to root your SGS first to use it.
Can you please post images of the Arabic menus and inform us about the firmware on your SGS?
thnx for the response guys and yes I think that the andriod market is illegal in the UAE but really what harm it will be if downloaded FREE apps from the market and enjoyed the phone like other android users?! well I still haven't got the phone but I hopefully in the next 2 days and by then I will update the thread with some pictures ^_^
@TravUK can I install other roms and still retain the arabic language? it's really important for me to have a phone that supports arabic language...
btw is it possible to root the phone and install the market app from phones that have the market application? market enabler is a good option but i'd rather have the orignal android market app
I was in the same situation, I bought my Galaxy S yesterday in Dubai and found it had no market app. There was however a cut down regional market app loaded. I don't speak Arabic, so I simply flashed the latest ROM on it, this in turn killed the Arabic functionality -which is not what you want.
According to press reports, the market is simply removed in the UAE versions. Apparently it will be present in the Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman and Qatar models. Maybe you need to wait for a ROM image to be posted from someone there?
You could try using an alternative for such region problems like SlideMe: http://slideme.org/
@ShaggyDragon congrats on the phone man how is it? is it laggy like the vodafone models or is it an unlocked unbranded phone like the 8GB version from expansies? also beside the lack of android market app what about the features and the pre-installed apps is it the same as the European version or did we got cut out of some features( I hope not T_T)? for example does it come with layar and the e-book or did we get a rip-off version (I would be pissed to pay $725+ for a phone that doesn't come with features that it was originally advertised with)...and last question for you if you flash the phone with an official/custom rom will you retain all the apps and features that are available to SGS in other regoin( example market app, layar, aldiko etc) ?
@d0p3d thnx for your suggesstion but slide me is really poor it contains less than 500 apps as I heard... but what about market enabler does it work with SGS? and if it is does it contain all the applications that are available on the original android market?
P.S. can anyone with an UAE SGS dump their rom for us who are interested in arabic or for back-up plans? I would dump my rom but unfortunately i'm totally new to android :-/
hello guys here is an update about the SGS situation in UAE: it's sold out!!
but after searching for the phone in many shops/malls I managed to find SGS which was the last unit in the shop (the owner told me that he brought 30 units and were sold out in a matter of hours!!)
so I was excited and without thinking I pulled out my wallet to buy the last unit in stock and to my surprise it was the 8GB version :-( I asked them for a 16GB version but the guy told me that samsung haven't released an official 16GB in UAE!!
now my question for anyone who bought SGS from UAE, did you purchase the 16GB or the 8GB version and for how much?
should i wait for the 16GB or should I go for the 8GB?!
Apps no longer showing in market
Hi,
I've flashed the JG1 firmware and installed modaco's R2. Everything is running very smoothly now and there is no lag issue. Phone is almost completely perfect except, the 'National Rail' app that I paid £4.99 for is now missing from the Android Market.
I imagine this might be because I used a Russian firmware or non-official firmware?
I've tried using market enabler and paid apps enabler but no luck. Is there any way I can set the device to the UK market so I can get the app I paid for and use regularly?
Thanks

How To: Android Market Enabler, Paid Apps, Every Country
Hi, I am very happy with the new phone. Now I just want to root it, so I can get ME running. I just wondered if it would make the phone unstable, and what guide I should follow. I rooted and installed quite a few custom roms on my Magic/Sapphire.
Again, I want my phone just as it is, no less apps, no more, all I want is root and Market Enabler to work.
It's not buggy? Freezes, FC's etc?
hiiii....
i m using android on my diamond & want to have some cool apps to work on but downloading from market is a task i dont want to do...is there any place where i can download the .apk file & install it on my diamond...plz help me with link or reply...
thanks!
what android version are u using and where did you get it from ?
i am searching this topic for weeks now and can't find a solution on how to copy a working android port on my touch diamond.
seems there is no such webpage and i can't find a forum post that just tells me "here is the most up to date and best android version for touch diamond in a zip file, just copy this to your htc root folder and you're done."
gets me sick.
same with win7 ports. can't find a serious thread for this topic with a simple post like : here is the actual port.. this runs, that doesnt, copy the zip to your root and run the .cab file.
is it really so difficult for people to just do that instead of writing thousands of forum posts to gather 15 different files, and 10 have to be different to make it work.. it's like hell.
and please.. just use the android market, my gf is doing this all day and it works very good. you can search for free apps in topics and with a free search option and you got ALL android apps available. what do you want even more ?
