Samsung Omnia

hi everyone. i like gadgets... who doesnt. i dont like them for their technicalities, some people do though. i like them for the way the look and feel etc. some of you can call me a poser!
anyway, i have the samsung omnia and i really like the black and silver theme that a few folk were talking about. it looks great. however, i understand zilch of what is being said about how to get it to work.
can someone be ever so kind and post a step by step guide on how to get this done? would really appreciate it.
also...if i ever decide to use the gps navigation thing, will i be charged for it?
im with voda and get all gprs data free, i know thats totally diff, but as i said before - im totally daft.

no, read first thread, use google, read your users manual or spam on omnia thread

unhelpful or what!
can someone be ever so kind to help me out? please!!
thanks

The problem is, your asking on the wrong forums...
Xda god bless 'em, are a HTC only forums, and although the hacking and dev forum is a good read they are not really in the Samsung fan club...
Try here instead....
http://www.modaco.com/category/342/i900-omnia-http-i900-modaco-com/
Sorry to link to another forum.... only trying to help..

More specifically... http://www.modaco.com/content/i900-omnia-http-i900-modaco-com/273151/change-colors-samsung-menus/
And you should have posted in the "Official Omnia" thread under off-topic as this is a development and hacking forum ...

As already stated this is HTC land and much as I would like to help I have a HTC not an Omnia and dont have a clue.
However check out the link below,
http://www.imarche.net/omnia/index.php
Its free software that works on both platforms and lets you easily change skins.
It works great but you have to buy SPB Mobile Shell that it works with but you can get a 15 day trial for free. Its well worth a look if you dont want to learn to much and want to try loads of skins.

Hope this helps

HTC-land?
Is the complete xda-developer.com a "htc-land".
Damn!
I thought it was primarily a "windows mobile-land" and definitly not a specific "htc-land".
Sorry guys.
My mistake. Just a pity that I'm not a HTC-owner but a samsung Omnia-owner.
Don't worry guy's I won't disturb the peace in "htc-land" any more..

Android 2.1 Confirmed

The user-agent screenshot that has been used to tout the existence of the Google Nexus used has also revealed something about the HTC Tattoo:

Look below the highlighted line. Interestingly enough, it's running the Norwegian language. That's right, Android 2.1 for the HTC Tattoo is now all but confirmed. We just have to wait now.

sweet! I'm loving this phone, can't wait to see some upgraded firmware, official or not

The questions is how soon.

im still stuck with 1.6! When is 2.0 out for the Vodafone edition?

I can also confirm the existence of 2.1 en-us HTC Tattoo in my own server logs:

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

cool - cant wait - bluetooth all the way!

Excellent news. New Year - New ROM

when will the new 2.1 rom be out and where?
where will the new rom be out? will it be officially from htc? or can we expect to see something on here.
btw, kinda off topic, but has anyone been able to root the tattoo?

Probably until mids february, that htc releases an android 2.1 device and can port the rom for their other devices more "easily". still there is not much tattoo development yet in the community and cyanogen is centered in the first g1 phones.

yeah, im surprised at how small the tattoo community is. which is a shame becuase its a good phone.

I just bought a Tattoo for my girlfriend and promised to myself I'd leave it alone, but a norwegian 2.1 rom just can't be ignored.. :O

You have successfully installed 2.1 on tattoo?

So, its mid-february and there are no new informations about this.
At the Press Conference at MWC, HTC confirmed updates for "older" Devices but only mentioned the Hero and no other Device...
My guess: There will be no 2.1 for the Tattoo.

Yeh,
I'm a bit bummed about it. You see the twitter feed for HTC mentioning the Eris, Hero, etc all getting updates..... just not our Tattoo though, which really sucks considering it has the same processor as the Hero. Maybe it is just the resistive screen that is the reason they are not doing it?

I thought the 2.1 was more or less confirmed on the tattoo (a la first post in this thread???)

I have just phoned HTC technical about the 2.1 upgrade and their reply was they are working hard on getting the touchflo part working for the Hero phone for release in the near future but for the Tattoo there has been no announcement so they cannot confirm or deny that it will be available for the Tattoo

Very bad news.

On Twitter by HTC (yesterday):
I know that the situation on Rogers has been frustrating to a number of people. All I can say is that we are working to get Sense 2.1 ready
Roger?

Ok DZ members, you asked to merge with G2 fora and you got it. Now I need YOURS & VISION OWNERS help to get everything in order. If you see something out of place or that needs moderating action, please REPORT it so I can take care of it.
I appreciate all efforts in making the merge as painless as possible.

Why do I see all sorts of posts about the Desire HD in here?

Something went wrong with the merge. We are in the process of sorting that out.

I noticed a thread I was watching got moved to barnes and nobles ereader thing.
Think it's fixed now.
Back on topic, I see a lot of DZ members asking about certain things that are old news on vision threads and vice versa.
I would urge all members to use the search button before starting a post and also ask members to post whether or not their issue is solved after finding a solution to keep from multiple threads about the same issue.
Other than that the merge seems to be coming along nicely.

So you want us to report the Desire HD Threads we find then? And other posts that have no point.

Yes please. I know some of the Senior Mods were doing clean up earlier but I am sure not everything has been sorted out.
All help is appreciated.

By the way folks, the Desire Z is Vision too. Both the G2 and DZ are codenamed Vision by HTC, and both have the name "Vision" in their official RUUs

Thanks -- that really clears up a lot of misgivings right off the bat. It gets lost in the fineprint but having it boldly stated as such makes it readable for a lot of folks!

[Q] Want to root my HTC Wildfire But i have the OTA 2.2 Update

Hello
I was wanting to root my HTC Wildfire running Android 2.2 but i dont know how to do it? Can somebody Please help me!
Thanks,
Alistair

Wrong topic under wrong podforum. Try browsing Wildfire development, you'll find your answer there.
P.s.
The answer is, you can't. Get in line and wait unrevoked.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

WAIT for the USELESS Unrevoked?????
IMPOSSIBLE!!!!! .v.
I have been waiting for it for more than 3 months!!!!!
FXXX IT!

well... Truth be told it's getting really ridiculous.
Three months later and after some recorder succesfull cases of S-Off they didnt even so much as bother releasing any news on the progress.
I'm with everyone stating we shouldn't be demanding anything since its not a right its just something they do on their spare time but if they cant make it work at least give it out to the community to try.
After all, nobody started out knowing everything they had help from the rest of the android world like anybody would. Isn't it time to give something back? Even if its just an update on their progress.

Oh come on seriously?
Referencing the 90/90 rule is an update for 90% of the earths population and anything they might be working on.

90/90 rule is also ridiculous

It's true though, and the thing is no matter what device I buy, it always in the corner of the room not being able to enjoy the party.
Happened with iPod Touch 2G MC, had to wait for months to get jailbreak just because our devices were unique and we have different bootroms.
And now HTC Wildfire, I bought the phone after getting the news that HTC Wildfire will be getting Froyo update, but now stuck with it with no root. I should've asked them if there were any handsets left with 2.1 Stock in it. :\

Haha, I was in the same boat with my iPod Touch 3G 32GB bought last October. I clearly remember going to Chronic Dev's website every few hours just to check up on the progress of Greenpoison, and the anticlimax that was when limera1n was released.
Thankfully, had better luck with my Wildfire, although I had previously decided to get the 2.2 OTA just to check it out (Because, at the very beginning, I was afraid to root and all, since the guides seemed complex), I am glad I didn't.

This is officially the 2000th topic asking the same damn question. Congrats.

No need to be so rude, everyone want's to know how the dev team is doing, and we all wait for the same answer. So we'll just have to wait and see.

Sense 4 / 4.1 on HD2?

I just saw on the portal that sensation xl got a sense 4.1 jb rom.
rom thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2036007
Since many sense 3.5 roms were based on sensation xl, maybe this rom can be used/ported to the lovely hd2?
hopefully someone's willing to start the project. I would but i don't know enough in android development and porting. Hats off to all rom chefs here.

Instead of this stupid post, you could refer him to the Search option in this forum.

Yea, i know... I just wanted to use it

Since none of the above posts have actually been useful (although admittedly I would have posted something similar to Marek989), the simple answer is no.

Nope. Not joking at all.
I just got it to boot.
I am editing the init.htcleo.rc to see if I can fix the Wifi and Bluetooth.
If what I do doesn't fix it then I'll link in the HD2 Android Nand Development forum.

Okay. I put it up in the Nand section..
Couldn't get the wifi to work like it was done on my Dinc, so I'm gonna have to ask everyone's help to get it working.
