You can install the real Omnia Interface on your Pocket PC, but if you cant get the Omnia Interface to install properly on your device , there is one other alternative thanks to greatbal from xda-dev. You will need to have SPB shell for this Theme to work.

How to install:
1) Download zip file attached.
2) Extract on your hard drive.
3) the .tsk file should be put in to /Windows or / My Document folder for the device as any normal theme file. then select that theme from Start > settings > today
4) Copy all extracted .dat files from Omnia SPB Mobile Shell 2.1.2 Theme to your device’s \Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell directory.
5) Soft reset device.

k exactly where am i suppose to extract it ... it says "extraxt onto harddrive" ... there are so many folders on the hard drive ... do i just make a new folder?

PPCInformer

pretty much.. extract it anywhere you like then Copy all extracted .dat files from Omnia SPB Mobile Shell 2.1.2 Theme to your device’s \Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell directory.

Plz note this might not work with the new SPB Shell. This theme was meant for version 2.1.2

I want to copy my Omnia contacts and business card photos to my PC for safekeeping, but my PC does not recognize the device as connected (USB port). Also I do not want to use Outlook. I just use Yahoo for my email.

Hey I have SPB shell 2.1.2 but it doesn't look anything like it above pic. Above pic look more like TouchFLO 2D, any trick to change it like that?

Saijo George

Saijo George

fair enough :)

I will see if I can dig up some more theme for the Omnia.. thanks for sharing ur find with us :)

ron

why not? :)

i would like to stay true to my phone while having the benefits of spb shell's interface :) i found an omnia theme for omnia resolution:

http://www.imarche.net/omnia/

but the menu buttons for that theme have a neon glow outline which is quite ugly.

Saijo George

I find it ironic that you want to install a theme for Omnia when u have the real deal. :) and as for you question , I am thinking it might not show up on the full screen as the omnia has a different resolution compared to the other devices

ron

hey, really nice theme! what resolution is it in?

i actually would like to use this on my omnia, does it fit the omnia's resolution?

Saijo George

the .tsk file should be put in to /Windows or / My Document folder for the device as any normal theme file. then select that theme from Start > settings > today

shaun

none of the themes I install works.... They're all screwed up. I have spb mobile 2.1.2 and I just overwrite the files in the program files with the theme ones. When I soft reset I have same theme with distorted icons and shell. What am I doing wrong. That theme says spb mobile shell 2.1.2 specifically. Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong????!

Saijo George

1 > Uninstall SPB Mobile Shell and delete the folder from your device so if there are any custom pages you have added will also be deleted
2 > Reinstall SPB Mobile Shell 2.1.2
3 > Install the skin again

let us know how it goes :)

Nikhil

Let me be the first to say thanks for the awesome theme.
I have installed the theme sucessfully but it does not show the bottom menu where it should show the home,contacts,program and calender icons what it shows only is the volume icon. Please help ??
