If you don't like haptics, you can disable it using a control panel applet. We've received word that there's yet another new firmware out-- but only available from Samsung service centers at this point, that brings back haptic keyboard feedback.
Hopefully, Samsung will post this ROM on their web site soon. Samsung has skinned and re-made a good deal of Windows Mobile's interface, though the core Windows Mobile applications such as IE, contacts, calendar and Office mobile are untouched. There are 3 Today Screens designed for fingers and quick access to important information and applications. The most talked-about one is the widgets Today Screen, which features a virtual desktop and widget bar.
You can drag any of the Samsung-created widgets from the bar to the desktop and they become mini-applications or program launchers. Widgets include a web browser launcher, month calendar, caller photo speed dial 4 contacts supported , a games folder shortcut that looks like a PS3 controller, notepad shortcut, world clock with 2 times, analog and digital clocks, wireless radio control widget Bluetooth, WiFi and the phone radio , music player and a profile changer normal, silent and vibrate options.
Widgets run in both portrait and landscape mode in fact everything does, unlike the Diamond , and you can have a different set of widgets on the desktop for portrait and landscape modes. The default right softkey is assigned to Samsung's "Main Menu", a finger-friendly application launcher with a screen dedicated to a selection of built-in applications and a second editable shortcut screen.
While widgets is cool, it might not suit those accustomed to the usual, informative Windows Mobile home screen with its support for plugins for appointments, search, messaging and more.
Samsung's other 2 Today screens excitingly named "Samsung Today 1" and "Samsung Today 2" are more practical for those who want the most info on the go. The first has an embedded application launcher and icons that inform you of calls, text messages and new email. The second is less busy and has the same icons for calls and messaging along with shortcuts to a photo speed dialer and settings.
A widget to inform you of missed calls see above. Likewise it does this for email, text and voicemail message. Here's a video of the Omnia's user interface enhancements and the Opera 9.
How does the Omnia handle screen locking? We've seen various implementations from acceptable to abominable on touch screen phones, and the Omnia is near the top of the pack. Since it lacks the iPhone's proximity sensor, it can't turn off the phone because you're holding it close to your face for a call.
Instead it relies on a timer and you can set it to disable touch response in 10, 20 or 30 seconds, or not disable it when in a call. The screen doesn't turn off so you can see call status, which we like the Diamond's instant-off drove us nuts, though we love the remove the stylus to unlock the screen and start a call note.
To re-enable the i's touch screen during a call, press the mouse button. What about when not in a call? The first ROM had screen autolock enabled the smartphone's screen locked once it turned off and you had to hit two on screen buttons to activate it. That was very annoying. The new ROM forgoes the auto screen lock which really wasn't needed since you can set the phone to only wake up when the power button is pressed.
Should you wish to lock the screen, you can hold the call end button alternatively you can assign the long call-end press to terminate the data connection. Jin Madera, 13 May i already deleted the SPB i know its gud but i need to buy it so i can used it not by trial on Hey all Samsung i users Or can you recommend any phone with large font size with nice features??? Hi To All i omnia users, can i install ebooks on this phone like ebible or dictionary? Anonymous, 14 May what's the sound quality of the phone?
How do I get all my appointments to show on the "today screen",not just the next one? Isha, 13 May Hi,please can someone help. You can try playing the game with our thumb but in this case you will obscure a big part of the screen and will be unable to play effectively. To play, I therefore suggest you to use the stylus. The integrated Optical Directional Pad is a pain to be used.
The game all in all is really nice and interesting, too bad that the Omnia makes it so damn difficult to play Kevtris, sorry. Windows Mobile has an integrated file manager and it has very small icons and text, no natural scrolling with your thumbs… it is an application to only be used with the stylus. With this File Explorer you can enjoy an IPhone feeling while browsing your files, using only your thumbs and with a pleasant graphic interface.
Absolutely recommended. If you have this problem, how can you avoid it? This wonderful keyboard is an exact clone of the IPhone keyboard, not only in look but in feel too! It will immediately work on your Omnia I tested several keyboards of this kind, none worked on the omnia and give you great satisfactions. Create a free website or blog at WordPress.
