[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] carlonalls:
I love the X1 and the whole panel feature.. For some reason I feel it's being heavily under utilized/developed.. Is it just me? Let me know if I am crazy and dreaming or if these are some workable ideas..

To be more specific I feel like it should do more than just change the layout of the desktop screen or the today screen. I feel it should also

1.)change the theme throughout along with the change of the today screen.

2.)show all panels readily available rather than the limit of 9 at a time

or introduce sub-panels :-) a perhaps 3 in 1 method so if you choose that

group 3 are readily available without going back to panel manager.

3.)potentially have the ability to switch to a different style interface <TF3D>

4.)have the ability to optimize for a certain category of applications. For

example if there was a games panel with all the games available and it also

changed/configured tweaks during the panel use only. <possibilities endless>
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Hannigan174:
Hmm, let's see...

1) There are 6.5 Themes that you can apply through system settings. Panel interface will not alter system theme, sorry.

2) There are youtube vids of new X2 Panel Manager, it's much better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LA8BQod9AiI

3) Already possible, I switch between PointUI Pointsense, SPB Mobile Shell 3, and TF3D.

4) See answer 2.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] carlonalls:
Thanks for the info... I am impressed with the fact that they are working on the panel manager and the progress that they've made.. Makes me feel better..

I'm just saying we're paying some benjamins for these high quality phones so I want the works.. Thanks again!
[Off-topic] cdmccul:
Hehehehe, I just had to post this...

My phone carrier is iWireless, in Iowa, USA. We are offered the Pantech Duo (not sure what number) for like $40US with a two year contract. I have a Kaiser, and my wife has a converted Tilt... we're not interested in a 'new' phone, but it is time to re-sign my contract, and I figured I'd look at what back-up/spare phones I could get cheap.

I wanted to do some research about the Pantech Duo, and see what was known about it. I first searched here, only to find it is shunned (I don't blame you), and that there USED to be a few forums for it, but they seem to have aged out...

So, I went to the Pantech site. What I read there I couldn't just ignore...

Here is the whole page, but you can't read it well...

So, here is the close-up...

Worth a laugh...

It is odd, my dad insists that it was done deliberatly to make us all take notice of them, and therefore be more prone to buy from them... He just doesn't get that in this case, the phone quality doesn't support the 'bad publicity is STILL publicity' theory...

I'm sure it was a case of someone taking the un-finished slides and either running late on his due date to turn it in, or the text was corrected and not saved to the right file before submission.

Is there any Touch Pro android themes.. beside adrokkid (stupid).

I like Androkkid, Not too sure whats out there, but someones probably created a theme for WAD (wisbar adv. desktop)

Otherwise you would create one yourself (with WAD - Its not too hard)

Is there any way to tweak a setting to permanently show either SIM contacts OR local contacts? My list shows duplicates as it shows both lists.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mesquire:
To hide SIM contacts, edit this registry entry

HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone

(DWORD) ShowSIM = 0
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Neutron1998:
Awesome, thank you!

Will that also do the same thing for SMS/MMS contacts?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] LlamaLord:
I have done this and i still see my Sim contacts? I have also tried using Advance Config and that didnt help?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bogdi1988:

[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] NeoDMD:
So I was trying to help my little brother get a custom ROM from XDA so he can enjoy his Wing. Well, ends up half of the chefs out there create roms without important features. For example, no MMS. Ok, so maybe you can get away with that since you can download Arcsoft and install it afterwards. However, question remains, why don't the chefs include Arcsoft already in their roms like they used to on XDA with the MDA, etc?!

So fine, no MMS, install it later. How about required functions? For example NO CAMERA SOFTWARE!?!? Are you serious chefs? I mean I know you take out things like ringtones, carrier bloat, etc, but CAMERA?! Now, the MDA, when a chef took out the camera it was because THEY WERE REPLACING IT WITH A BETTER CAMERA SOFTWARE.

What gives XDA?! I am noticing this in other ROM threads for other phones. Even some of the latest phones have this issue too. Rhodium roms missing landscape mode?! It's a Rhodium, it has both landscape and portrait!

Either way, so fine, you want to make these roms available to the public. No problem. Ever think about creating a TEST ROMS section INSIDE OF XDA ROMS?!

So another example. One section for "INCOMPLETE BETA SUPER TEST ROMS" and another for "The phone should still be able to use all hardware on it with this ROM" section. How about that for a little more clarity?!

I can't beleive what's happened to beloved XDA. Shame. Big shame.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] ashasaur:
Weeeeelllllll......not to sound super preachy....but you do realize that you are getting all of this FOR FREE right? Most of the time the reason that commericial programs aren't cooked into ROMs is because they are just that, commercial. AFAIK we could get in MUCH more trouble if we included a bunch of commercial stuff in them. I know that the Wizard has TONs of ROMs with built in stuff that is commercial, I used to be a cook over there, and in my opinion the reason for that is because there is so much crap in that forum that the mods and such arent going to look at every ROM for illegal crap, whereas in this much smaller forum here for the Herald we have fewer members and fewer ROMs but I think like 2 or 3 mods, so they have less to look at and more time to do it.

Long post short, you get this stuff for free...at the most what cooks ask for is a donation, ROMs as they are no matter what are technically illegal piecs of software, and at any time if Microsoft REALLY wanted to they could have XDA shut down without another word..so basically, if you don't like it-cook your own ROM with what you want already in it or stop complaining!

/end rant
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] afn691:
Every people cooking ROMs tries to cook the way the most useful for his/her device, and test some apps or abilities from the ROM.

And as you've read, they share their ROMs "for free" so that you can enter here, search, and download the ROM you want, flash it and play with it.

Nobody sells anything. There's no agreement to sign. There's no compromise except the wish to make things well - to every chef's taste.

You don't like this chef, this cook, this dish, then you are free to change restaurant. People is here to discover, develop, and share ideas. If you like stock ROMs with all the features, then get one of them.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] Neo XL:
The best you can do is to write a factually comment into the thread, where you have downloaded the ROM. This is the right way, to get an answer. But don´t insult the cookers. Here are kitchens presented, so that you can make it better for your own, if you want.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] Dr.Gonz0:
chillax

MMS is a carrier specific issue. Roms atleast for this fone aren't carrier specific... Yea this stuff is free and you'll have to use a little elbow grease to get it workin in the way u want. If you want a specific app cooked into your rom be it commercial or not cook it in yourself, just be careful of rammifications if you share your rom with the public. Kitchens are not rocket science, just grab on and slam into it head first
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] NeoDMD:
I understand, trust me. I don't think you are preaching. In the days when I first got my Wizard (MDA) the roms did not require much addition of software. You could choose a rom and the chef would do more work in letting you know about the rom. ie: Missing this, missing that, has this, has that...etc. I came across two ROMs in particular that did not mention such things to me and was shocked about it.

After further reading the posts in the ROM Chef's thread, I discovered that the chef did not care that the needed app was not working and had asked all users to just download an older build of the ROM instead of trying to get a functional ROM shared.

Now I understand that apparently XDA came under great legal threat from several companies about their roms/software being released here for free(whether or not it left the phones without critical functions). For this reason, to remain alive, XDA had to comply by these rules and just let the chefs make the ROM itself and anyone willing to put up with not having a phone or camera or keyboard or touchscreen working on their phone would test the ROMs out and figure out how to get critical functions back by themselves because it would destroy XDA if the ROMs had this software included.

Back then it was considered hard work simply downloading/burning a ROM that a Chef made, but these days you even have to install the basic function apps yourself if you want to participate. Hopefully it doesn't get much worse than that. I really want my Touch Pro 2 to have an XDA ROM running on it in the near future with WM 6.5 and enjoy butter smooth, reliable operation.

Well, i have read all the posts and saw allot of people had problems with card, but mine is the most stupid ever, its a 2gb microSD with adapter and sometimes works, sometimes not, now i have put a sdhc driver and the funny thing it works like this, i remove my card it doesn't see it anymore but when i restart he see it almost every time, i do not get it, it does this on all os and all ipl/spl and radio roms... the card reader is clean now and without physical error, and the card is new and working perfect. Does anyone know how to fix this? if not lets try to fix this coul be useful for many... Thanks!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dharvey4651:
Okay folks, before you accuse me of being a noob and tell me to "Search Search Search", rest assured that I am not a noob, I've been around the block MANY times and I know the search routine.. I've been searching for the past few hours and have come up with nothing.

That being said..

I am trying to change the icons in the WM6.1 Control Panel. I have been able to successfully change a handful of icons by resource hacking either the Executable, the DLL, or the corresponding CPL file. This doesn't change the fact that I am having a really hard time figuring out how to change the rest of the icons in the WM6.1 Control Panel.

For this I am humbly asking you all for your help.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Dan.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] clr:
I have a 8525 and I tried to flash the rom with (Schaps_WM6Pro_Hermes_4.31_WWE_Full.exe) I did it before last year and worked fine, tried again today and I must of made a bad mistake because it gave me an error and or a message which I don't remember now it will not boot. when started the screen says HTC in the Middle and then in red on the bottom it says,

M05 R1.54.07.00

S04 G32.86U.7020.23H

B06 D3.62

I tried reading as many threads as possible to find a solution, differents types of start ups and flashing the rom with a sd card but nothing seems to work. not sure if I am even doing right.

:confused:

Help would be really appreciated..

Thanks

I am receiving my Imagio tomorrow morning finaly and plan to mod it right away and I am wondering if the mods/ tweaks for the Touch HD will work? Especially this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=544422 and if there is a version with out the theme applied? thanks for anyone help. I will be in the game tomorrow to help anyone else out as well.
[Imagio General] fraggy4:
I hope so, because that theme looks really good. I'll give it a try.
[Imagio General] jbh00jh:
Tried it on mine . Took 10 minutes to load ( 11 MB ) and after i reset nothing happened , still had the same theme I had before (stock). Took remove programs 10 minutes to delete it. A big waste of time.
[Imagio General] fraggy4:
Well, the only thing that changes is there's a Dusk theme under the Today settings that changes the lockscreen and adds a nice gradient to the taskbar and softkeys, but TouchFlo is completely unchanged.
[Imagio General] RKnight1983:
alright well thanks for testing. I wasn't sure an didn't have the phone yet at the moment. I have been installing cabs that I have through out the day and will report later on what cabs work for me and what ones do not.
[Imagio General] Razorfold:
I think thats because TouchFLO has to be cooked into the rom. You can't just install a cab of it.

That link I believe is just a theme of touchFLO 2.5, and in order for it to work it requries that you have the software already cooked into the rom.
[Imagio General] fraggy4:
That's what I was thinking, but I couldn't check as, well, I can't exactly flash a Manila 2.5 ROM to my Imagio yet, haha.

i'm sure there is a page somewhere in the forums where it talks about this, but i've been looking for about an hour now and had no luck finding it.

So apologies if i haven't looked hard enough :)

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can locate a different loading image rather than having to put up with the "bland" standard windows one.

The loading animation im refering to is the round coloured circle that comes up when window is loading or an application.

refer to the attachment

For one, don't post it anywhere else.. allow the mods to move it for you to the proper location, that way you don't have two pointless threads about the same pointless topic.

When you buy hardware, the hardware is yours to keep and use as you see fit, there's no such thing as licensing hardware (yet, though M$ is trying, fight the man etc...), what you could get in trouble for, though, is if the images you're flashing to your friend's phones contain any copyrighted material, such as google apps or HTC's proprietary binaries. Just make sure you don't become world famous and you should be ok, it's not illegal if you're not caught, huh?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SG_Shadow:
Ahahhhahahahaahahahahahahhahahahhahahaahahahahahhaahha! Ok, now that I got that out of my system. It is not illegal to mod an electronic device. When it becomes illegal is when you mod the device to do illegal actions, like play burnt copies of video games, or run illegal version of operating systems, etc. With that said, modding your g1/mt3g is just fine. As long as your not modding the phone to be a detonator for a nuclear bomb, your fine. Be sure to issue a disclaimer before modding anyone's phone. You don't want anyone coming back to your demanding money for a bricked phone. Just let them know that your trained in what you do, but there is still no guarantee that everything will go as planned. I've modded a couple of peoples g1's and I had them reply to an email with my personal disclaimer. Just as a back up...
