ne0cr0n, unfortunately, "my" method has some important cons (you should list 'em) - after that change you'll be not able to upload pictures to SkyDrive, also some accounts like Twitter will be non-functional :( I've tried to find some workaround but without success...
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kevyn82:
but you can revert it back, right?

The new LiveID could be associated to a different market zone, which you could use to buy some apps with your correct credit card infos, then revert back to your main LiveID, and regain all regular functionalities like auto uploads to skydrive, twitter integration, etc.

Am I right?

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] sensboston:
I'm so sorry but I can't confirm - just never tested this way. I've researched that hack 'cause damn Verizon blocked and deleted my very-very old email ( @verizon.net) what I've used during 11 years, and also as my LiveID email.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] danchar4:
Wow dude thanks for writing the app so quickly. What is the etiquette for sharing apps? Are you supposed to share source code too? I don't want to be rude by asking you for the source ;)

I don't use twitter, but I was able to upload a photo to skydrive just fine after swapping LiveID's. Steps:

reset my phone with my own liveID

download bunch of apps from appstore

dev unlock/interop, etc

manually edit registry and change to my wife's LiveID (she has zunepass on her ID which is why I wanted to swap to hers)

reboot phone

take picture

upload to skydrive

login to skydrive app and see that picture is there on *my* skydrive account, not my wife's

So skydrive integration with picture hub/camera obviously stored my liveID and credentials somewhere other than the regkeys I edited. Most likely Twitter is the same way.

I presume the credential data is stored encrypted in some weird GUID key with no obvious pattern. Too bad there is no regmon/procmon tool like on Big windows, otherwise I could figure it out in a few seconds... Although somehow I doubt that you can use provxml to import export those keys to re-write encrypted credentials. That would be a pretty bad exploit.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] danchar4:
So I ran IDSwitch and it gave me the error "no root access". Hmm. So I went into WP7 Root tools and switched on "trusted" for the app.

So a pre-requisite for running the app is to have WP7 root tools? I'm kinda new at this so perhaps that is an assumption of any app that is going to do interop/native stuff? In order to get it to work you have to set it to "trusted"?

Anyway the app let me type in the new liveID and rebooted the phone, but upon booting up, it appears that the old LiveID is still there in the 3 registry settings. I ran it a second time and the app remembered the address I typed in so thats cool. BUt again after rebooting, it failed to modify the registry entries.

Can you post up a debug version with some breakpoints or console spew? I could try to attach a debugger on my end (not sure I know how to do that, but I can try to figure it out)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ne0cr0n:
Thanks for the info. I will add a warning and how to use message when launching the app for the first time.

I will do that, but the code is kind of ugly xD
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ne0cr0n:
I uploaded the source. Should make things much easier ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] wpxbox:
I tried it on Samsung Focus Mango updated with WP7 Root Tools. Even though it reboots but it does not change the primary id. After reboot when I open the app again, it shows the primary id as the old id and not the id to which I wanted to switch.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ne0cr0n:
Found the bug. I used the content from to current ID textbox not the new ID textbox -.-
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] wpxbox:
I guess nobody tested it or I am getting a different result. Here is what happens :

1. ID A which is primary ID in my Account with No CC.

2. I switch from ID A to ID B. ID B does not have a CC.

3. When I access Marketplace, The region used is according to ID B.

4. Next I Move to buy an App and it asks me to signin with ID A instead of ID B.

5. For free apps, I can easily download it without going to login page ever which is pretty obvious.

Today Evening I will try out to buy app by signing with ID A when it sends me to login page of ID B by first sigining out and then signing again.

Few things I noticed :

1. Facebook, Twitter, Skydrive all was working.

2. It takes a while for the OS to realize the ID is new and hence may take around a minute or more to change marketplace.

3. I downloaded a free app with the swtched id and used it without any issues.

4. I even updated a free App which was bought using the primary ID with the new ID.

5. Email ID A stopped working. It did not show any email nor it gave an error of wrong password which is pretty odd.

My Thoughts :

1. This will be useful for parents who have kids carrying a Windows Phone who do not want to give them credit card access but using this they might buy apps for kids.

2. I still need to test but this will work for IDs which are in same region. For example I have a US id to which if I want to add a CC, the country is fixed and hence I cannot use an Indian CC with it.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] sensboston:
Try to share pictures from camera to SkyDrive...

Try to reboot after LiveID change.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] wpxbox:
Just tried it out and it worked. The file was uploaded to Skydrive account of the primary Live id.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] sensboston:
Wait... What "primary Live id" and what are you tried? New one or the old one? Have you tried:

- change LiveID to new one

- reboot handsets

- go to pictures hub and share picture to the SkyDrive ?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] wpxbox:
When I said Primary Live Id I mean the ID with which the phone was configured.

1.Phone configured with ID A

2. Change to ID B using the app, Reboot

3. Upload to Skydrive and it was stored in ID A Skydrive Account.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] sensboston:
He-he, it's exactly what I mean by "not working". For example if you change first (original) LiveID email to the new one (as I had to do), you'll be not able to upload pictures to SkyDrive, and can't login to the Twitter account. So please do not confuse people.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] wpxbox:
Oh Ok I understand now what you said by breaking. The new ID cannot be used for Skydrive or Facebook or Twitter etc in short, anything connected with old Live id.

Basically its not a true switcher and can only be used to buy apps with the new account connected with CC
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kurdland:
Hi all

The whole idea of this app is JUST to let you assign an account that will give u the ability to buy apps from marketplace using CC, if your original ID have problem with adding CC information. So it is not to change you ID permanently. You can read my thread if u want. Anyway thanks op for making the app.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] wpxbox:
I can confirm this works. Just bought an app using a different account and it works. Editing a video on this so will be up in couple of hours.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] wpxbox:
As promised, Here the link to the video we made http://youtu.be/2H7dr7ZzJZs
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ne0cr0n:
Cool, thanks !
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kevyn82:
After changing to another Live ID, I bought successfully an app from another marketplace locale, installed, everything ok.

Then, after reverting back to my primary ID, all my calendars associated with this account stopped syncing.

I had to manually remove them (including birthday calendar) in order to resync all of them back on my phone.

(my facebook, google and another live id calendar synced with no problem).

Edit: my secondary Live ID account I used to buy the app is already syncing emails on my phone, this is: I have to Live ID accounts on my phone:

a) my main en-US account

b) my secondary it-IT account

I get emails from both, but I don't sync contacts, calendars, to-dos from b.

I changed from a. to b. to buy the app. Then reverted back to a. Calendar associated to a. stopped syncing.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kevyn82:
BTW after last marketplace updates it seems that this hack doesn't work anymore!

I tried changing the live ID with a different country associated but the marketplace won't change as it used to.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] hassanselim0:
Are you sure?

I was very happy reading this thread because there was this paid app that I wanted to get, first I tried using the "Windows Phone 7 Marketplace" app to download the XAP and sideload it onto my phone (I don't like piracy, but I have no other option), but the new marketplace now encrypts the XAPs so I can't do this anymore (waiting for someone to crack the DRM).

So when I read this I thought about switching to a new account with my true region (Egypt!) and try this hack and start to actually pay for the apps/games so I don't feel guilty anymore (and to get achievements in the Xbox Live games I ... erm ... pirated :S), but now my hope got crushed :S

(side question, does anybody know about a way to change region of the Windows 8 Store? yeah, same problem, different platform :S)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kevyn82:
Just contact a Xbox support representative and ask for that switch.

I did it last month, from US to Italy, it took something like 4/5 days, I lost all previous app history (downloaded, trials, etc), but they gave me for free one month Xbox live gold (what for since I don't own an Xbox console, but anyway better than nothing).

I was finally able to add my credit card to my account. A huge emotion when I bought my first app after 2 years on wp

WP7 Root Tools 0.13 Windows Live ID Setup app

Guys,

I just noticed that after installing Heathcliff74's latest WP7 root tools, under policies, there is a "Windows Live ID Setup" app. This runs through the OOBE (out of box experience) to setup the LiveID from scratch. This might end up being more robust than the IDSwitch tool.

Download the latest root tools here: http://wp7roottools.com/index.php/downloads and give it a shot.

[Android Themes] darrenjdoc:
They look good !!

Links please :)
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
Thanks,

They can all be found Here a Skin Market

And on Beautiful Widgets app also
[Android Themes] ZonicTH:
Can you upload a .zip? BeWeather supports beautiful widgets themes but can't download them off of the market.
[Android Themes] kbrn:
Awesome skins! Thank you very much!
[Android Themes] rickmatic:
First let me say awesome work.

I tried all 3 sense 4.0 skins and they all give me the same problem. The skins does not seem to stay in sync with the actual time. It falls behind, so my status bar shows different time than the skin....
[Android Themes] rickmatic:
Forgot to upload the picture.
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
thank you guys!:)

i will post all skin's ziped later today.

@rickmatic as far as your your clock in the skin not sync with system clock, i'm sorry but i have to say that i don't really know why, its just a skin, it shouldn't interfere with any of the functionality of the app.

does this appens only with my Sense 4 skins?have you deleted them e downloaded them again? try using. 24h clock instead of 12h clock to.
[Android Themes] zofox:
I don't know why but I can't install any of your skin.. The only one that I can use is stripes one, which became the image attached...

I'm completely noon with this application because I just bought it! :)

Can u help me? :)

Edit: already solved :) it was in conflict with a theme :P

But I have the same problem..the time doesn't corresponds
[Android Themes] rickmatic:
Will report back with other skins, and 24 hour.

Love these skins by the way.
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
Ok, i have update first post with new Skin MIUI Dark - Red and also posted the skin ziped individual, enjoy. :)

As far as you guy's with problems, really wish i can solved them to you but i really don't know why this is happening, because it's just a skin, it doesn't mess with the app it self, but if it is only with my skin's guess there's must be something wrong on them :confused:

So for now my only idea is that it might be because of screen resolution, i use and test them all on my Nexus S, screen resolution is 800x480 px.

Let's try this, post your screen resolution and i will upload a skin adapted to your screen and see if it solve things, ok?;)

oh and BTW don't use a skin i uploaded to SkinMarket, HTC_V4 alike, it's not working, its corrupted.
[Android Themes] rickmatic:
I tried the miui skins and 24hour still got same problem.

The stock modern skin worked great no issues.

I have an EVO4g 480x800 hdpi
[Android Themes] zofox:
My resolution is 480x800 :) what have we to do with the zip??
[Android Themes] rhodiggah:
see if this helps...

Make sure your BW are set on defaults and re-apply these skins.

Hope that solves your problems.
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
Ok guy's, test the skins attached bellow, they are built on the same way of the Modern SuperClock.

Just unpack the attached file to "memory card -> Data -> beautifulwidgets -> scskins" and then go to the BW app and the new test skin's should be there;)
[Android Themes] zofox:
The results :banghead:

Desire Z using tsf laucher

this one works perfectly (but suks for me ;) ) maybe it can help!

[Android Themes] skywayex1403:
These look really nice. Sadly, I am having the same issue as zofox.
[Android Themes] saotua:
I'm having issue too. Downloaded from the BW market. When applied the skin, the widget didn't show correctly. If I restarted, the widget keeps loading and didn't show anything.

The test skins have the same issue.
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
Sorry that this things are happening...

can you guy's try a clean install of BW, delete the BW folder in Data folder from SD Card and download the skin again to see if it does the same thing.

if not i will rebuild 2 skin's again from scratch using the template from BW to test.
[Android Themes] zofox:
Already done! :) maybe u found something useful in the link that I have posted above :)
[Android Themes] kbrn:
I'm having the same problem as everyone else, the skin won't sync the time, I'm using launcher pro and I thought it was the problem but I went back to stock launcher and it does the same.

I really love what you did with these skins and I hope you can fix them!

Thanks! :)
[Android Themes] rickmatic:
So I deleted the whole bw folder inside data. Downloaded sense 4.0 from a few post back. And it works good so far.
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
@rickmatic Good to know that this solution is working for you,

Everyone with problems please try the same to see if it solves things.

Anyway e will do 2 skin's from scratch (Sense 4 and MIUI Black just one of each), i will try to do them as son as i can.

Thanks everyone for the feedback.
[Android Themes] gollyzila:
Nuno_mdj, can you edit the 4x1 version of your theme to match the Sense 4 version please? Thanks for this awesome skin.
[Android Themes] lazzarone:
great job tnx
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
As far as i know its not possible, simply because the elements of the skin are the same for all dimensions, the elements are stretch to fit other widgets dimensions and the widgets i posted are all having in mind SuperClock 4x2.

if i'm wrong, please let me know so i gladly adapt the widget to other formats.
[Android Themes] zofox:
Why I can't use your skin? :'( uff.. It's unfair
[Android Themes] gollyzila:
I believe you can create a background specifically for certain dimensions. For 4x1 you would name it background41.png.

More info:

- http://levelupstudio.com/skincreator/ (Click the "More" button)

- The following .png's are optional and listed in the log.txt file after applying the skin.

[Android Themes] moiaxmd:
I really love these skins but for some reason im having problems. I used the test theme and it works however it doesnt sync with the time. Im using go launcher and the only solution was to shift to landscape mode and it would update the time. The other themes won't load correctly. I tried deleting the folder with no apparent resolution if the problems. Still, this is one of the most beautiful themes ive ever laid my eyes on.
[Android Themes] choroy:
Very good collection. Thank you.
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
Just finished rebuild from scratch two Skin's and now with custom non-stretchable background for specific size (4x1, 2x1, 4x2)

To install the skin's just unzip the skins to sdcard\data\beautifulwidgets\scskins

Hope this skin work well for all of you that were having bugs.

And for those who still have bugs please first try a clean install of the BW. For that go to sdcard\data\beautifulwidgets and delete all folder and files (backup first and than delete all), than run BW and exit, go back to sdcard and install the skins.

Thanks for the heads up.
[Android Themes] nnee69:
Very nice skin, thanks

[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
Hi,

Thanks for your words...

As for your question i didn't really understand it... sorry and so far i only made skin for Super Clock, don't know how weather skin work.

i sent you a pm because of GoogleNow[ish] files you have.
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
New Skin's added to the first post, hope you like them...

Working on a couple more, hope to finish them soon..

how do you add it to beweather pro? thanks
[Android Themes] no1bossman:
Been using this app on a Android tab for awhile. Anyway I noticed Super Clock Skins isn't available on the main menu on my Samsung Galaxy S3.

Can I assume this is by design as the feature isn't support on the phone?
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
that's most likely a bug or something app related, not with the skin's!
[Android Themes] stivnico:
I extracted your .zip in "sdcard\data\beautifulwidgets\scskins" but i don't see the skin. :confused:

P.S. Anyhow good work, i love HTC V4 Sense 4 style! :good:
[Android Themes] npcd92:
like the second one

great works bro!
[Android Themes] nuno_mdj:
Hi, first Thanks:good:

Now for the skins, when you extracted the skin they must be on a folder with the skin name in the scskins folder.

Exemple: "sdcard\data\beautifulwidgets\scskins\HTC V4" and all files of the skin in the HTC V4 folder

if it still not show in clock skins try to delete and place again the Super Clock Widget or reboot your phone, it should be working, if not download it from the skin market, they are all there.

Thanks:good:

Update Font?

Nuno, you make an awesome Sense clock for BW. I've got a request...Can you make one with updated font type to match the latest HTC clocks. Something like this but for BW?
[Android Themes] PieceKeepr:
I've been trying to create a weather skin using the tool on the BW website but I keep getting errors. I want to use a combination of version 4 and 5 icons and pulled the icons straight from the respective apk. I'd be glad to email or upload a zip of the files if someone would be willing to take a look and see if you can figure it out. The error screen that pops up on the website is considerable less than helpful and I have no idea which file is causing the problem or why.
