I recently picked up a used Korean model Sony Xperia X1 smartphone, and had to flash the OS to an English version. The phone's great and unlike most people, I don't find Windows Mobile to be that big of a headache.

The only problem I'm having is finding the same apps I had on my old crappy LG phone when I first arrived to Korea. This included basic stuff, such as a Korean subway map and Korean --> English dictionary. So, does anyone know where I can download this stuff? If it helps, I'm using SK as the cell phone service.

the easiest way to get the phone into english is to install SPB mobile shell and set it to english. It doesn't change everything, but most things

Well, I don't have any experience flashing an Omnia myself, I'd recommend you head over to the XDA Developers forum to figure out how to do it. That's how I learned to flash my X1 as well as install a functioning version of Android on it as well.

Here's a link to the their Omnia II forum.

Unfortunately, the customized ROM I installed did not have the T-Store pre-loaded. If anyone has a direct link to the app or anything like it, please let me know. I can't figure out how to download the app directly from the t-stiore homepage.

Even better, does anyone have a link to a stockpile of Korean Windows Mobile apps available from some "other" source?
