The resolution in panoramic mode is pathetisad.

Now all we need to figure out is how to get the volume icon on the Today screen to pull it up instead of the default dual slider.

My conservative usage of quotes got me again!! Your post slipped in there when I was thanking Adrynalyne for explaining what the current conversation was trying to do.

Ok, I installed it and now I have NO idea where to fund it. I tried looking in the start menu, Today plug ins, Programs, and settings and its nowhere to be found. Ideas?

Yeah. I use the volume keys though, so...

As to where to find it....got me. Its mapped automagically to the hard volume keys.

Did you install it to the device, and then soft reset? Don't install it to storage.

If anyone is iterested I found a different dialer. I couldn't get it to work on mine, but then again I'm still pretty new to my omnia.

Re: Omnia Hacks / Tips / Tricks
 
I just switched from a xv6800 to the Omnia. I love it but am running across a problem that may just be on my phone. You know how after ending a call you can hit menu and then "view contact", and the person with whom you were just speaking's contact pops up? (this on the old phone) Well, my Omnia doesn't open the person's contact when I type "view Contact", it just goes to the Samsung phonebook and then I must look up the person's name/contact myself. It's a ***** to do and takes more time. Is this on all Omnia's - please advise.

Also, why doesn't the Omnia suggest email addresses once you start typing them? This may be a deal breaker since I use my phones to email constantly for work, and I need the "suggest" email feature on whatever phone I have.

Save the Omnia for me......help me fix this? !!! =)

I am sure it was created that way because the volume buttons would be reversed if upside down. A fix would be nice though.

Soft reset.


Or import the attached reg file.
r we talking about the htc touch pro? I have one from sprint and I do not see the Change TuronOffAutoDeploy in the reg HKCU\ContralPanel\Sip..mine does not have anything even close..

Also, any ideas on getting the keyboard light to last longer??

This is the Omnia forum so he is talking about the Omnia not the Touch Pro.

Use at your own risk, I have found it to be finger friendly, and nice looking, but buggy.

HKCU\Software\Samsung\MiniToday

Set silverInbox key from a 0 to 1.

Soft reset.


Or import this reg file.
I was trying to do this, nothing happened (i900) How it suppose show up? Then I open sms it stay the same like it was, open Outlook it's still same too

It only works with Samsung Today 2, and maybe 1. Otherwise, you need to run it from the executable in \Windows.

Thank's a lot. What is the name of a file in windows?

Adrynalyne 03-16-2009 11:56 AM

Re: Omnia Hacks / Tips / Tricks
 
Its hidden. Unless you have an i900--the later ROMs, it was removed.

I am really interested in doing this, but I am totally confused. I understand the copy to desktop part, but what is Resource Hacker and Resco Fie Explorer

If you want just this particular one, there is a cab for it around page 16 or so.

Good find, that is a pretty comprehensive set of instructions (no Omnia zip file though....what's up with that LOL)!!!

I'm a little new to this, when i open the chgfingermouse exe file on my phone, nothing happens? I know i'm probably missing a step or two so can anyone help?

syrguy1969 03-18-2009 12:36 PM
Re: Omnia Hacks / Tips / Tricks
 
The easiest way to use this little gem is to place it in the startup folder (more specific instructions are in the post this app was in) and map it to a button. Basically this app is nothing you install, but this is an EXE file for PPC only, so there is no install. You can also navigate to this through the Program menu and whenever you click (press) on it you can see the mouse curser pop on and off the screen.

Did that help at all?

Re: Omnia Hacks / Tips / Tricks
 
It did clear somethings up but now the only problem is figuring out how to get the file into the start up folder.

syrguy1969 03-18-2009 03:50 PM
Re: Omnia Hacks / Tips / Tricks
 
Open your Omnia's File Explorer, copy the file Chfingermouse place it in 'My Device > Windows > Startup > Programs' and then map it to a button (I use camera)!

Re: Omnia Hacks / Tips / Tricks
 
Do you have to create the programs folder? I get as far as startup and theres no programs folder?

New Startup Mod.

None of this was created by me, merely packaged, but its a start to de-Verizon-izing the phone :D

Shutdown
