The Android Addict!

I've been using my Samsung Omnia i8000 with Windows Mobile 6.5 for over a year now and it's just like a plain basic smartphone now. I only use it to call and play a few games. And since its camera broke down for the third time and the warranty expired already, I grew tired and decided to accept the fact that I lost the camera already.

Samsung Omnia i8000 was already considered a failure and just after 6 months of being launched they just stopped promoting it and went promoting the new ones. It was my first time to buy a smart phone and it sucks whenever I realize its value. I am sour-graping here people and a bit regretful of my decision to buy it. I bought it the same time as my wife's HTC HD2. I thought since it has a dedicated graphics accelerator it will be faster but I was wrong.

Okay, I thought "was that it for my device?" until months ago I've heard of people trying to port Android on Omnia i8000. Yes, they are making the Android available for my dull mobile device. I was so eager to use it but when I read the article it says that there are still a lot of bugs and a lot of features are still not working, so I waited. And I waited.....

Xperia 2's Experiment 13 Review & Download

Sony Ericssons Xperia 2's packed game Experiment 13 was ripped-off and is now playable to other Windows Mobile phones. I am currently playing this great game using Samsung Omnia 2 and it does also work with my wife's HTC HD2.

When I first tried and viewed the game, I was amazed already because of its astounding graphics with 3D acceleration. However, when I first installed it on my Omnia 2 - it wasn't working at all. You have to download a ".dll" - don't worry it did work and quite really well. After downloading the zip file, unpack it and send it to your phone and put it on your Experiment 13's game directory.

Here is a preview of the game.


So here is the download link to the game:
EXPERIMENT 13
Dll to make it work on phones that aren't working.

Enjoy this very cool freeware game!

Omnia 2: One Touch Player

Using Omnia II's built-in player - One Touch Player, listen to your favorite MP3s. Now lock your phone.

When you try to open your phone (while it still locked), you will see the song information (if it is an original music from iTunes, you may see picture of the album). Now, touch the upper part of the LCD and drag it down - Cool eh!

You can go to the next/previous music and lower its volume if you want to. A quick review for Omnia II's headset, I find it cute but the sound quality still lacks more crisp (I tried using a Sony Ericsson earphone and felt really great to hear such great sound. So if you like a better sound quality, buy a very good earphone to go along with your Samsung Omnia II.

Another thing, I like Omnia II's call handling. While I was listening to the music, my wife called me. The music stopped so I answered the phone, after our conversation the music continued flawlessly and without a problem unlike some of my friends' smartphones.
