Nice SWF Homescreen for Nokia 5800 by andrecavallari called BlueSpectrum has some features such as draggable icons at the side, clock in the homescreen can be adjusted and more.

Note from creator:

Hi!, this is my brand new Home Screen to use with Omnia HD from PNHT!!
* Credits to PNHT for making flash homescreen possible
* Credits to user system32white for name suggestion

Instructions to install it:

First of all you need to have hacked phone with OmniaHD HS installed (Samsung Widgets)

Extract all files to any folder you want them copy the gadget.swf and the BlueSpectrumHS folder to e: root of your phone, restart the phone or change the HS and them change back to Samsung Widgets…

In the BlueSpectrumHS folder there are 3 xml files and a wallpaper.jpg file, if you want the blue background on your device, since this HS is transparent and show your wallpaper on the background…

The config.xml is the configuration file of the HS

in the config.xml file when the node showclock is 1, the clock is showed, and 0 is to now show the big clock, the showbottombar when set to 1 the bottom bar will be showed and when is 0 the bottom bar is not showed (for who have the built in omnia HD bottom bar)

The language file is your language file for the HS, edit this before you put on your device, but edit only what is between the nodes, not the node… example:

<dialer>Dialer</dialer> in Brazilian Portuguese would be <dialer>Discador</dialer>

The shortcuts xml file is the shortcuts list on left and right side of the screen

To edit it you may pay attention for this settings down:

<showrcut position=”LEFT_OR_RIGHT” uid=”UID_OF_THE_APP” icon=”ICON”>NAME_OF_THE_APP</showrcut>

The position is left or right, what side of the screen it will be showed, i recommend maximum of 6 left and 6 right…

The uid is the UID of the app, you can get is using killme, jbaktaskman or opening the .sis file in Siscontents

The icon you must use the iconset.jpg wich is inside to know wich name to use there

And the name of the application is for organization pourpouse only, use any name you want, just to keep organized

***** IMPORTANT ****

Do not change the order in xml file!!

Just follow the instructions and everything will be alright…

The same button wich opens the dialer is the same that closes too, it´s better this way, you have instant access to other buttons directly…

Drag the icons to activate them (now 1/2 screen approximated)

To drag the clock hold it about 1s them drag it…

Hold the “C” button in the dialer to clear all…
