I have Vito sms chat installed, but its lack of integration means I tend to not use it as much as outlook.

That is the same app the author of that tweak used. If you followed the registry path correctly and entered in exactly as he did (WITH the quotes...I messsed that part up at first) you should be working great.....would the screen shots he posted help at all?

It works...just wrong button. Im sure it has to do with Today 2.

I typed it verbatim.

As long as it works to your liking I guess that is what counts!!

I know this will sound redundant, but you DO use SPB Mobile Shell....right?

Newp. Its not integrated enough for me.

Here is a PPC tweak, but done on Windows Vista.

Want your phone picture to show up under your sync profile in Windows Mobile Device Center?

Simply navigate C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Acti veSync\Profiles\"profile number"

Replace the generic sync icon with one of your Omnia. Then reconnect the device.

Note that the file must be in ico formart and named sync.ico.

Thanks for that one, I am sure there will be a lot of happy Vista users out there (I haven't been able to part with XP yet LOL).

About the integration tweak...I did notice one peculiar behavior....I had my native MMS/email app open and 'closed' it. With SMS after that the text button opened the native text app not PocketCM. I opened a task manager and closed the MMS app (for real this time) and went back to the home screen and hit the text icon and PocketCM opened again!!! Odd behavior, but as long as it is known, workable I guess!!

Save battery life and memory.

We all know how activesync is a PITA to close, and somethimes will downright refuse to.

This utility kills it off after a sync, automatically.

Install, and soft reset.

Edit: Jury is still out on this one. It works, but AS is back up when the phone resumes from Sleep.

DO NOT DO THIS TWEAK IF YOU USE XT9! IT DISABLES IT!

Always backup your registry first before tweaking.

Still testing this one. The tweak is originally for the HTC TP, and Diamond but it seems to be working for the Omnia soft kb too (or perhaps its a placebo effect). Either way, it stops me from accidently switching to xT9 all the time. Use at your own risk.

Make keyboard less laggy

Go to start, settings, input.

Choose Samsung Keyboard, and click options. Go to xt9 settings and disable everything.

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e001 0409

Modify the values to be this:

Ime File="windows\compime.dll"
Layout Text="COMP IME"

Click ok, wait about 20 seconds and soft reset.
