i'm new

Hi,

i am new to this forum and new to the whole editing phone scene....

i have a HTC s621 working off a rogers network....

i real alot about editing the registry - what exactly does this mean and how is this done ??

does the phone need to be unlocked inorder to do this ?

i hope someone can shed some light - sorry if this question as been answered or seems stupid.

i would like to add the these updates on my phone.

Thanks.

I've managed to install everything just fine...except for the commanager. When I try to extract the zip file to \windows\ I get a file copy error. I've tried the extraction on the phone and through activesync. I've tried extracting elsewhere and then copying...same thing. Now my commanager has no text...just the icons. Not a big deal, I can still turn stuff on/off...but I hate things half screwed up. Any ideas?

Oh, by the way, yes...I'm a newb. *head hung in shame*

:)
[HTC Excalibur] ClassicBoosting:
I have no AppUnlocked my phone as I don't know how to do it... Do'h!

I was just unzipping, dragging and copying to move the files. What registry edits do I need to make and how?

I'm sorry I'm soooo new to this!!!!!

Could ya help a newb out?

THANKS!!!

For some reason, I cant get the colored themes to work. Only the plain one. Is it because I have the HTC rom which is """NEW HTC ROM!! HTC_WWE_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship.exe"""

This is what it looks like when I choose a color theme:
[HTC Excalibur] NorseLaQuet:
you need to install the background image.

if you did, then just go into the homescreen settings and manually change it to the 'carousel' bg.
[HTC Excalibur] tibby05:
doesnt work
[HTC Excalibur] drunkenmastera:
i have not try it.

but if i did, i would love it from the pics you showed.

however, how is the events and calendar tabs coming along?

that would be the most important thing that i would miss.

Greatly appreciated the new themes.
[HTC Excalibur] kjay:
its really stupid because smarttoolkit doesn't work i have a blackjack 2 smartphone !!!! please fix!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC Excalibur] zoheb.virani:
I can't get the Carousel theme working on mine, it freezes up and doesn't scroll through, do i need to have carousel blue or black as well to insure it works?
[HTC Excalibur] blahzay_blah:
this is such a noob question but where is my windows directory is it the "windows" folder under my device?
[HTC Excalibur] blahzay_blah:
ahhh this sux i actually thought it carouselled or slided like sliding panle
[HTC Excalibur] kevitoNY:
that was my first question does it actually slide from panel to panel but i guess not its still a nice today screen love the blue
[HTC Excalibur] motok1:
I need to install all the files posted in page 1 or not?

What´s the function of smart toolkit? Sorry... for the questions.

Thanks.
[HTC Excalibur] Profezza:
could anyone who has this installed capture a video, like with mymobiler, and post a .zip of it here?

[HTC Excalibur] joker_21cute:
the carousel is not moving

i tried your instructions but it only have the freeze screen of the carousel... can you help me how to make it move?
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
all I can say is BEUTIFULL!
[HTC Excalibur] Ryanmo5:
When you pick carousel as home page backround image has to be set on default for it to show up.
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
alright I have read up to page 6 and still no one has replyed on wether or not you can have Smarttoolkit start up with the phone? Does anyone know how to make it start up when the phone starts up?

Also why when I got to my messages or anything on the top there are two clock's? It look's like one is the LCD clock and the other is the original clock?

Hope you guys can help, thank you.
[HTC Excalibur] Ryanmo5:
Start smarttoolkit, go to control panel, got to general, click on options and its the first option. just check it and your good to go!

In same options screen uncheck show clock on tray.
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
thank's a lot man, those were perfect instructions.

I really apprecciatte it.
[HTC Excalibur] parthabhatta:
By the way is there any plan to release portarit version for 240x320 screens ?

Will installation of any of these themes erase the original sliding panel theme from the phone >
[HTC Excalibur] morfic:
can this home screen make use of the nrg rinku top bar icons?

any weather app that fits in the area the lcd clock wastes?

great job on putting this together, it's neat.

and for those who have the double clock on top, just stop clockontop process, since this takes care of you already.
[HTC Excalibur] jacknmary:
I installed it per the instructions... the carousel would freeze up and the text would overlap...
[HTC Excalibur] mossimo53:
i have a problem...everytime i try to install a new theme on my phone..have 6.1 dash..it comes with a right menu program (self explanatory) on the home screen. i cannot get rid of it...is there some file i need to manually delete so my phone does not do this...sry jus a little lost cuz i have searched for remaining files after i uninstalled it and could not find any
[HTC Excalibur] parthabhatta:
Is there anyway to use this in portrait screen (240x320) for VOX.
[HTC Excalibur] enigmas4u:
Great, I can't wait to get time to try this. Thanks!

Now time to make it an actual scrolling carousel xD
[HTC Excalibur] ctownkid418:

[HTC Excalibur] crz6662:
I can't get it to scroll either. Looks good though. Wish it worked. Suggestions ?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikeysm21:
This is a really really stupid question, but where can I find the pictures of this working?!

I feel like a tit because im sure it's pretty obvious, but i can't find them! : $

[General Questions and Answers] Rosa Elefant:
Just wondering:

Most mobile devices, Android or Windows or {i, watch}OS, come with an ARM/ARM64 RISC processor. As far as I know, ARM is a proprietary architecture, directly connected to additional development cost because Advanced RISC Machines must grant a license first before you can start to assemble a new smartphone. (I never tried to buy an ARM license, maybe they just sell you a joker for all of your future devices?)

Given that the well-established SPARC/SPARC64 RISC processor is open

and

royalty-free, it's strange to never have seen a SPARC smartphone/tablet/whatever in the past few years. What makes ARM worth the additional cost?
[General Questions and Answers] triggerlord:
Because there are mobile designs available for arm chips but none for sparc. Why would you burn money trying to make something as good as what you already have?
[General Questions and Answers] midnightrider:
^ what he said, partially. SPARC64 is a very interesting and worthwhile architecture that is pretty much dead except for one line of servers. There are no extant low-power SPARC/SPARC64 cores. ARM is King of Low Power. Intel can't beat them, there is pretty much no competition in the phone space. Lucky for us, ARM works really well in mobile devices.

As far as I know ARM licensing is not a big cost. And their ecosystem is relatively open, you can get tons of doc just by signing up.
[General Questions and Answers] Rosa Elefant:
AFAICS, that's not true:

http://www.fujitsu.com/global/about/businesspolicy/tech/k/whatis/processor/

Of course it will still have to be built, but 2.2 gflops/W seem to be a decent value.

So is SPARC's. Without even signing up.
[General Questions and Answers] midnightrider:
Blah blah blah. You're going around in circles.
[General Questions and Answers] Rosa Elefant:
That's not quite nice...

i am unable to work with download mode because of an error. so i need those images so i could flash rom through fastboot.

like this guy here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8gGbPPdmVM

or if someone has a TUT on how to flash Rom Stock or any other Rom through ***FastBoot*** mod and not through Recovery that would be awesome!!!

so anyone has links or any TUT for me??

i might be wrong but SP flash tool is for MTK devices isn`t?

and according Gsmarean the lg spirit has 2 models, one has MTK and the second has Qualcomm:

Mediatek MT6582 - H420

mine is the H440. will it work with a Qualcomm processor ???
[LG Spirit Questions & Answers] nosoycamachis:
yes, it is for mediatek, you need to search how can you do that for your processor, once you get in the download mode flash a stock kdz and thats it, the phones not dead, is really hard to hard brick our device, dont worry just be patient, flash boot.img, logo.bin, recovery.img, uboot.img, send me your email adress and ill reply you with the files

Anyone tried the Xperia with Facebook feature in 5.1.1 Lollipop versions?

I've tried using it (Go to settings>accounts>add account>Xperia with facebook) it loads for a while but it returns to the menu and nothing happens. I wondered if it changed because I just checked it out a few days after flashing a new stock ROM.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helpplease123:

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karolekpro:
It is nothing special. You just press "Like" to sony mobile page on Facebook and it synchronizes your Facebook events with your Calendar and viceversa. That's all it does.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kentexcitebot:
This feature bloat is completely pointless. On stock ROM, this is one of the many things I remove from my device. If you're going to share on Facebook, use the website.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helpplease123:
Actually no. It does upload facebook photos in a much higher quality than uploading it directly on the facebook. (at least when it worked) Have you ever tried it though, did it work on your stock rom?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kentexcitebot:
Facebook compresses your uploaded images regardless of what platform you use - Android app, IOS app, Sony app, website, etc. It doesn't make sense how the Xperia extension somehow uploads a higher quality than through the website. Besides, if the extension is truly hit-and-miss like you said, why are you still using it?

I'll admit, I've never tried it. However, I used GNOME Facebook integration that works similarly to the Xperia plugin on the Linux desktop. Long story short, it was littered with problems, so I just use the website. No issues so far.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helpplease123:
I meant to say it did the job when it was still working before Lollipop or this version, plus it did more than that, like sync contacts and whatever although I did not really put it into much use.

I was just concerned about certain functionality, I was worried I might find abnormalities or loopholes from the fresh and pure firmware I downloaded.

so it still works for you in 5.1.1?
