How to ActiveSync using bluetooth
Jan 16, 2009 Samsung Omnia
This is the guide on how to sync your phone via blue tooh without using the USB Cable/Data cable (Microsoft Active Sync) We will start with the configuration from the Computer,
STEP 1: First go to your Bluetooth configuration, for my case it is located in the System Tray (right clicking on the Bluetooth icon, and choose Bluetooth Configuration)
or
you can Go to Control Panel -> Bluetooth Configuration For this example, it is Port 7 (Bluetooth Serial Port) You could have a bluetooth Serial port, if you have installed Microsoft ActiveSync, if not you could manually add a Bluetooth Serial Port.
Bluetooth Configuration
STEP 2: Next, we wll need to setup your Microsoft ActiveSync. Make sure that you have previously sync using a cable, and has already setup the partnership between your mobile and computer.
Go to your Microsoft ActiveSync File -> Connection Settings
Microsoft Activesync menu connection settings
In the Connections Settings allow the connection to the bluetooth com port. (For this case, we’ll select com port 7)

On your Windows Mobile
STEP 1: Make sure the Mobile Phone, and PC Bluetooth are turned one. Go to your Windows Mobile Bluetooth settings (as per screenshot below)
Select the Computer (my case WINXP-4811BB284), if your Computer is not here, click on Add new device to search for your PC.
Windows Mobile Bluetooth Setting
STEP 2: After that, you should see the following screen. Tick the related services that you need, (we will select ActiveSync and OBEX File Transter)
For some case, you will not see ActiveSync. Select Serial Port as alternative.
Windows Mobile Bluetooth Setting - ActiveSync
STEP 3: We’re almost done, now open the Microsoft Active Sync program. (it will be in your program files) Click on Menu -> Connect via Bluetooth and wait for it to establish the connection.

Finally, after it is connected, just click (touch) the Sync to sync with your computer and DONE. Anyway, after you have finished the synchorization, make sure that you disconnect the activesync or turn off your bluetooth. As you don’t want it to drain your battery.

[Omnia] How to save device memory or internal memory
Jan 5, 2009 Samsung Omnia
The tips are adopted from “Wizard” post at http://www.samsung-omnia.org/how-to/save-device-memory-internal-memory-rom (the great forum dedicated for Samsung Omnia) but I have selected few tips that i used and a few other that I enhanced from the original tweak. I will continue adding to this post, if I found any other tweak. Please comment and share, if you have any great tweak.
Figure below Shows the Before, the change and the After of the Registry Edit.
01. Install the program into My Storage or Storage
Just made this a habit, to always only install program to your My Storage or Storage card. Do NOT install it to the “Main” storage, but personally I would prefer installing in My Storage. Why? just keep reading ..
02. Shift cache, cookies & history to storage card
Unlike the instruction showed by Wizard, I pointed it to My Storage (the built-in 16GB memory) instead of the Storage Card because sometime we might need to remove (upgrade, replace) the External Memory card. So you see the logic there yeah? I think i made my point, but if you think it should be the other way round then share with us in the comment.
HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Explorer/Shell Folders
Value Name:
Cache
\Windows\Profiles\guest\Cookies
> change to >
\My Storage\Temp\Cache
Cookies
\Windows\Profiles\guest\Cookies
> change to >
\My Storage\Temp\Cookies
History
\Windows\Profiles\guest\History
> change to >
\My Storage\Temp\History
03. Shozu autorun consume about 400kb of memory.
Deleted it
HKLM\init\Launcher140 delete value name:”Launch140″ value data:”\Windows\shozuRcp.exe”
04. Replace 8 X Samsung Wallpapers with 0kb Samsung Wallpaper
You have to replaced it will a smaller file, because even if you delete the 8 Samsung default wallpaper, the WM will create by itself in the “Windows”. This tweak would save around 984kb disk space from your omnia phone.
01_Samsung_wallpaper.bmp 123kb
02_Samsung_wallpaper.bmp 123kb
03_Samsung_wallpaper.bmp 123kb
04_Samsung_wallpaper.bmp 123kb
05_Samsung_wallpaper.bmp 123kb
06_Samsung_wallpaper.bmp 123kb
07_Samsung_wallpaper.bmp 123kb
08_Samsung_wallpaper.bmp 123kb
05. Disabling Samsung Dialer to increase 10mb memory
You can increase 10Mb of RAM by simply disabling Samsung dialer. While the Samsung dialer is pretty useful it can sometimes be sacrificed for higher speed.
By using Registry Editor
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
“Enabled”=dword:1 – Change to 0 and reboot your Omnia
So you will have a standart windows dialer without any screen lock thing from Samsung and app. 10mb more of free memory. The only thing you can regret is the vibro on dialer buttons
