WQVGA Themes (Samsung Omnia)?

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.

ROM lists

Lets have a thread to List broadly ROMs that we have here..
I will start with the ones I have seen here..
we can give pointers on basis of :-
Style:
Stability:
Speed:
Battery:
On the scale of 1-10 , 10 being the highest
Typical Use:
*Special mention :
*offcourse the opinions may vary user to user, but will give us an idea for sure
Ok, Lets start:
#Manilla2d < Is It the Touch Viva 'fame' type?>
#Cube <This is Sure HTC Touch style>
Hello all / I am Bhushan Sohani /

I don't think a lot of people will participate in the thread, since we at this forum strongly discourage rating of ROMs, since each of them is a product of buring a lot of midnight oil (and loss of hair ).

But Again/..
Lets look at it positively..
The ROM Makers can get a good amt of feedback.. and can make their ROMs close to perfection faster.. / like they will have feed of so many testers /
Plus we get a separate thread to praise the smallest detail that ROM makers spend so much time on..
Little bit of analytical angle to it..:|
ROM makers can also benifit at single source, I think..
I do not mean any offence to any of the programers in any way.., I respect all of them..
<And so should everybody .. who posts here !>
Budding programers can also see, what geek-techs prefer, whats liked more, and whats creating issues...
Also..
Some people who have some creativity, but are not so pro at programming, can also give some input here, and pool in together..
Constructive development..
So,
what say fellas?
< Personally I love the work on this forum, and so do people who read/post here, I guess..>
/Once again .. Kudos../

and do i need to cid to install it.
also is there cube add on for the windows im running and how do i install and find it.
i dont want to flash a whole new rom.
many thanks
mike

Hi,
in my experience I've only seen ROMs with or without Touchflo but never Touchflo nor cubes in standalone packs..but I might be wrong (happens often ). A very personal opinion: those gadgets may look cool in a screenshot but make Artemis quite unusable because our device is not powerful enough. I encourage you to try a Tflo ROM anyway,it doesnt take so much time...obviously be sure to have your original ROM and make a backup of your phone to be able to restore if you're not happy.

Hey sulac how r u doin...good to c u...

Hi you can find it here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426540
but make sure that your phone is unlocked before flashing a cocked rom
All you need is Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=374

hey but Onyx rom 6.5 seems to be still in testing version so whats the point in making that upgrade and i already have an original 6.1 rom so what are you trying to tell me dude??
hard reset!!?
not the best answer

hard reset!!?
not the best answer[/QUOTE]
This error means that there a defect in the rom that cannot keep network settings and as you know things happen so either live with it or just hard reset (you can backup every thing before doing that)
were are only trying to help according to our knowledge

Bing!
Windows Mobile 6.5 is now stable.

~~ sorry for double post

alright sasa66 calm down..you'll are moi seniors so thanks for Helping me..
2 last question
(can i backup my windows 6.1 rom?)
(does windows mobile rom have a genuine key..or something like that//to be original kind. Or is it publicly available to use as free.)
thanks jeremy89632 and sasa66

To backup your device.
1) Use MyPhone
http://sn1-p1.myphone.microsoft.com/
2) Google Sync
http://www.google.com/mobile/default/sync.html
3) PPCPIMBACKUP

And no, Windows Mobile doesnt have a licence key.
And no, Windows Mobile is not (actually) publicly available, but whatever ROMs here can be used for free, with no time limit and such. (Something like freeware)
But you can still download it here.
--
We in XDA Developers just answer questions based on our knowledge on Windows Mobile, and we are not hired or called by Microsoft to help in this.
We just volunteer our technical knowledge and apply to this field.
I hope you understand our intentions, as it is not easy for us.
If you come to any part of text you dont understand, Google and its there.
And if google doesnt work, that is where this forum kicks in and you can ask questions here.

[Q] ROM (builds and kitchen)

Hi all.
I'm creating a Windows Mobile Rom.
1)---I want to create a rom modifying my smartphone's rom and NOT creating a rom from a clean one (it will be almost impossibile).
2)---Which kitchen can i use?
3)---Where can I download the latest Windows Mobile 6.1 and 6.5 Builds? (Da-G's download don't work anymore on Mediafire)
Thanks

Try OS Builder as this is the most advanced and all in one solution. But be aware that if you start from an already cooked ROM you may face many kinds of problems because many cooks have applied methods to prevent dumping their ROMs.
Good luck!

Thanks for you reply!
But, to pass from Winmo 6.0 to Winmo 6.1 or 6.5, do I need 6.1 or 6.5 builds (xip,sys)?
Where can I download these build?

Oh well - you are much on your own with this old stuff now. Usually you cannot do much to the XIP (Kernel) parts as they are largely HW dependent. SYS is part of the ROM anyway and so part of regular cooking. Lookup the forums for your device and download what you can get. If it is an exotic device your chances are ~zero to get anything useful. If you have no experience in cooking it is a very long way to succeed (talking in weeks and months of learning!) - and there no others fighting the same problems any more. Look up the introduction link from my signature to get an idea of how things are connected.
What is your starting point (HW, ROM) and where do want to go?

TOBBIE, in practice I want to use Os Kitchen (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=628948) because it's very simple to use.(I can alredy use it).
I downloaded but when I open it, I have the first screen (that showed in the thread). Is written: "....please, select an official rom update file..." It refers to an update Windows Mobile Build for cook the Rom.
So I searched Windows Mobile 6.1 and 6.5 Builds. I found 2 very good Builds from Da_G :
-6.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547314
-6.5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544445
But ALL Links don't work and I ABSOLUTELY need this Build, without it, I can't cook...

Sorry, I have no experience with OS Kitchen. I have only used OS Builder finally and a very old device specific batch-kitchen before this.

Thanks, Can i give you "THANKS"?
But with wich build did you used to cook?

Well first you need to split smartphone (no touchscreen) from touchscreen devices.
I have cooked only for smartphone -> see my signature kitchen and stuff is all there.
Then find a stock ROM for the right type (smartphone or touchscreen) with largely similar properties (screen resolution, maybe also CPU/Chipset).
Can't you tell which device you want to cook for?

I want to cook for my Toshiba Portege G910 with WinMob 6 Professional.
It's touchscreen, it has Qwerty Keyboard, it has Wvga Resolution 800x480. There is not even a rom for this device.
But I want to cook in Italian language, (I'm italian )

This will be tough I guess. Mind that a new ROM will not change the kernel, so any of the new memory schemes introduced with W6.1 and WM6.5 will not apply even if you put a new OS on top of it. So basically you will not gain speed with a new ROM. Adding a language is a tricky thing but is possible, see my signature, even without cooking an all new ROM. So is there no Italian on the device at all?

Oh, I'm sad for this: no extra speed
When I bought, my phone had italian language.
The Toshiba Portege G900 is very very similar to my G910. Also the G900 has WinMob 6.0 Pro.
An Italian guy made a Winmo 6.1 rom for the G900 (in italian language), and now the G900 is very very fast. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4h23pR6JbI
I want to this with my G910, IT'S possible. Salvyc83 do this
(But now he can't help me)

Search for speed tweaks on WM6 if you are happy with the device otherwise. The effort to cook a well running 6.1 is enormous and it is not guaranteed if you get it faster on the UI then.
There are various registry settings to play with which can make the UI faster responding (cache for icons or fonts).
Good luck!

I need too to learn cooking roms. I will follow this thread.
