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..
Krasse signing off...

WM7 for HD2 is here! Proof!

Yes it was posted, a million times already... sigh. There are already multiple very boring and repeating threads about it that you could have found easily by looking at the first 2 forum pages...

As pointed out above this has been posted before, and even I could make a better fake than that! The fonts wrong and it says Foto's instead of Pictures

Only when it runs the 1 GHz hack, because phone 7 requires that.
But it is nice to know that windows 7 phone scales on a totaly different way on a HD2 WVGA screen. Look, this is how it scales on the concept device:
(this image is real-size: put your HD2 beside it to get an idea)
But yes, I like the HD2 version more

Fake !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There's no such thing as "real size" on a computer screen, unless yours and the viewer's one have the same size and resolution

i did one of it runnin android too..
all good fun but not the real deal..

Samsung & carrier fees reason for Froyo delays?

I do not know how accurate, truthful or factual this person is, but their post explains why we don't have Froyo yet - basically US carriers have to pay more for feature updates rather than maintenance updates, and Samsung insists Froyo is a feature update but carriers insist is a maintenance update being that Google did the majority of the work:

If this is the case (and it kind of makes sense) I am quite disappointed in all parties concerned. What the heck.

O_O .... I have nothing to say to you for this! . . have a nice day...

These posts keep getting taken down by the mods. Cut the guy some slack! He didn't know. My post on this had over 1,000 views and over 30 comments and still got taken down. I mean, we're all clamoring for ANY news on Froyo. I mean, what else do we have to talk about here? Rooting or installing the Froyo hack?
Honestly, OP, I like and can't get enough of the "Where's Froyo?" posts either. Why? Any news at all is worth a read for me. I want my Froyo!

Please search before making a new thread. There are numerous threads discussing this same topic.

Sorry for previous post (now it's edited). I turned off image loading so i didn't see the image. Now i understand the question and no i never saw a g3 like this. I'm not sure if this is a real picture... look at the buttons... they are quite "strange"

this picture was in the list for samsung galaxy 3 !!
never seen one like this though!

Theres a extra "Home Key" to the bottom left and search key at bottom right.....
Looks like a new model....

Horrible fake.

You cannot say that for sure.... :/

I'm pretty sure I've seen this one before..
Going to do some research
Dympy.

Its not a G3 for sure, look at the touchwiz and even the interface is not the same.

I agree on that but the outside is all the same.... :/

could it be some indian version of the i5801?
http://www.priceindianow.com/samsung-i5801-galaxy-apollo-india-price/

that is a pre production model, those pictures were probably taken when they were doing a preview of the phone, before it was released to market.

Looks absolutely different. I can see Spare Parts, Java Me, Coverter, Dev Tools apps. These were not there when i bought the phone. Looks like a hybrid phone

Nope.
I have the Indian version......

Interface is definetly different..status bar, "touchwiz"....
And two homebuttons...maybe the one what we use as a home button isnt home button.
I dont get it, why isnt there normal touchwiz, we are using

Maybe it's chinese copy?

Its a prototype of the galaxy3...samsung decided to shed some of those buttons to make it look better and cut costs

A huge one.
Be patient, you might be waiting for a while for help. Only people who have this clone are going to be able to give you any meaningful help based on their experience with it, there aren't many on here (we see a handful a week). Maybe search for similar threads & see if you can dig up some info (search 'China S4 clone'/similar). It's not even remotely the same as I95x phones firmware-wise at least.
