Many months ago, I wrote an API to access the HTC Touch Diamonds Accelerometer from managed code. Those who investigated the code a bit deeper probably noticed that I had stubbed out an interface, IGSensor. I did that in anticipation that many Windows Mobile devices in the coming months would include an accelerometer. It turns out I was right. The idea behind the IGSensor interface was to provide a generic unified API that a developer could use to access the accelerometer of any device without having to worry about which device it was.
Anyhow, Id gotten several requests to investigate the Samsung API, if there was one. Not an Omnia owner myself, I wasnt particularly motivated. Then yesterday, one of the requestors informed me that Spelomaniac from modaco.com had figured out how to access the Samsung Omnias accelerometer.
We happened to have an Omnia at my workplace, Kiha, so I grabbed that, and ported the code so it was supported by my API. So yeah, its all working!
I highly recommend that all developers to download the updated API and make the minor changes necessary so that Omnia users can make use of the HTC Touch Diamond accelerometer applications! Here are the new breaking changes in the API:
- HTCGSensor is now a private class.
- SamsungGSensor is a new private class.
- Instead of creating a HTCGSensor or SamsungGSensor explicitly, developers should use the new GSensorFactory.CreateGSensor method to get the appropriate IGSensor object for the phone the application is running on.
- IGSensor is now IDisposable. Developers should Dispose of the object once they are finished using it. Not doing so may leave resources or a thread hanging and the application may fail to exit.
Thats it! The code changes you need to make should only take you a few minutes.

Ill be making the changes necessary to Klaxon this weekend so it runs on the Omnia. :)
Here is the original C++ code I for the HTC GSensor emulator in case you are interested. I would not recommend using the HTC Accelerometer emulator, because it does not support Orientation Change notifications through the Windows registry.
