400×240 sized Wallpapers and screen backgrounds


As KU990 Viewty is 400 x 240 in pixel (WQVGA), other handsets with the same resolution can display these wallpapers too. Known handsets with the same resolution include:
LG Cookie KP500, Renoir KC910, Prada KE850
Samsung Omnia i900*, Pixon M8800
SonyEricsson Xperia X1
K-Touch E60

*Note: 400 x 240 pixel pictures interacts poorly for Omnia i900′s accelerometer, you will need larger pictures to eliminate the black edges

How big is 400×240 is in your screen? We have attached a photo of Ribeauville, Alsace, France for your reference. (If you like it, feel free to use it as your phone background.)

When we search the net, we found a massive load of screen background (swf) and wallpapers (jpg) for Viewty which you might want to see. High quality good stuff. http://www.reptilis.org/Viewty/index

Verizon Samsung Omnia Low Battery Beep Issue


We have recently received a question from an US reader on his Samsung Omnia beeping in silent mode. So far only Verizon’s version has been reported having the issue of beeping every five minutes of “low battery” in any mode, including silent mode. We have heard no case for other carrier’s (Europe, Asia etc) on similar problems. If you are using a non-Verizon Omnia and still have this problem, please leave a comment below and we will follow up.

Verizon users can attempt to modify the system registry at your own risk. The file in concern and in irritation is called “phonelowbatt.wav”, you can try to do something on it. For example, change or add the value of the following registry:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\phonelowbatt]

Change or add the value Sound to a .wav file with no sound, or to an invalid file.

Alternately, user might attempt to replace phonelowbatt.wav with another file, if possible.


Update: Some reader pointed out that certain version of Omnia can change the low battery sound directly in option (Settings -> Personal -> Sound and Notification), you can change to a blank quiet.wav, and you can disable it, depends on model.

If you don’t see it, go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\{A877D663-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}\
Add a stringvalue with valuename: “Default” and valuedate “lowbatterywarning”
try the above again.
