[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hyweljh:
Hi Croden,

are you using the quietly brilliant text from other HTC images or writing them in yourself? if you are writing them in what font do you use and where can I get it?

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
Try to use Segoe Print. I think this font is default in windows.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hyweljh:
That font is very very close to the one HTC is using ;)

Ace, great job so far mate, will try and upload one or two here for you if you like?

Here is my first one, hope you enjoy!

Has anyone had success with editing the welcomehead on a O2 UK Leo?

Mine has had No ROM/SPL changes, and I cannot do anything with the PNG's. Am now wondering if they are marked for use in the ROM itself, so is locked as in use.

Tried renaming, moving, replacing unticking readonly in properties etc. No joy. Using TC V2.52 and had no issues on any other devices with this...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] murphy2008:
I have also tried in many ways to rename/delete the original files - or just copy new ones over the original ones - no chance, not allowed to rename or delete or copy over the originals! anyone an idea? using original german rom, tired with tc 2.52 (what is very hard to use without a pen ;-)

hello - yes I tried from ppc! Now I have a solution - with resco explorer it worked!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Schooleydoo:
+1

Total Commander 2.5 did not allow any editing. Resco 2010 worked first time. I usually steer well clear of Resco, I don't like how they install 5 different programs when you only want one! But their new Explorer is fantastic.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
ok i close the project. Thanks for 30k views =).

Its really amazing!

The reason is my personal. I can keep to oneself. Reason is not: "Because you dont donation me anything". Donations are really volunatry!

I dont say my reason to close the project and you have, as soon is possible, notion, that i am the bad guy who want only cash from your pocket.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ruudfood:
What? Why? :confused:

Got my HD2 today and was looking forward to a new splash screen instead of the boring O2 one! :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:

some of the links are dead...any chance someone to re-up them all in a single .rar file?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
Nice attitude. That'll definitely ensure him lots of donations for any further work - NOT. Kids! Tsk tsk.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:
Agreed. If you want guaranteed money for your work, sell something for money. Donations are totally voluntary.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Tzeunis:
Indeed, what a crap! Donations are voluntarily!! Do you buy every rom cooker a beer also?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] niels_90:
So you want us to make a donation for a few simple wallpapers?

Donations are just like what madindehead said totally voluntary. If we need to make a donation even for a wallpaper this forum is gonna cost us a million!

I don't think you belong on this forum, this forum is about sharing. Some people deserve to get a bonus like rom chefs or people who make usefull apllications where they spend tons of time on it. But come on, a few wallpapers, that is ridiculous.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
OMFG! I dont do it for donations! I go to the chrismas holiday and i dont have time for creating new pics. Maybe after new year i can do some new pics if you want to.

I am really disgusted with your comments.

I dont say my reason to close the project and you have, as soon is possible, notion, that i am the bad guy who want only cash from your pocket.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
ignore this.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
Yeah, okay. Of course that's what this means...

How could we possibly have misunderstood!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
I dont removed images expressly. It was some bug... i fix it, reup the pics.

It is voluntary if i make pics or not. I am not banded to this forum.

The fact is true. It is really interesting experience.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
Because i see your interest for this thread, maybe i open project and do some new pics.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
Don't do it for me - I've never actually used any of them. I'm just the other guy on the forum right now that's chatting with you about it. There were plenty of others that thought you'd ditched them and took everything down.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] brooon:
Calm down here, this is just freetime-working (devs) and using (leecher) :) :)

Thank you very much for your work Croden, i really liked your screenies and i would appreciate it when you go on with this project! ;) Nice ideas and easy to implement, even for absolute newbies on xda ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:
Ok. I am sorry for my comment. However, the way you said "Thanks for the 30k views, project now offline" seemed like you were only doing it for the views/donations. I'm sorry to accuse, but that's certainly how it came across.

Good to see you are back doing this. We all understand that you are on holiday etc, but there was no need to close the project/take all the images down because of that. We all need a break now and again!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] yvettejudd:
WOW....

Croden, thanks for all your contributions - it was fun!! I never thought you to mean that you wanted donations or whatever.. I took it (the comment about the 30k views) that you were excited that others took interest in your work - I would be excited!!

Happy Holidays and hopefully, we'll see you back soon!

Hi!

I think the splash image is shown too short if I replace the file "welcomehead.png".

Is it possible to replace the HTC animation "LEO_animated.gif" with a single framed non-animated gif? Or do I risc a hang during boot-up?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] [★]:
The animated ones, can you actually change the htc animation, or is it always just the welcomehead.png?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jgal:
The animated part of the welcome start screen (the default emerging "quietly brilliant" text) is in fact a separate simple .gif file called "LEO_animated.gif". Overwriting it will change your animation. Presumably to any other .gif of your choice
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
Read my first post. I change the HTC Animation. =)

Soon. .)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] [★]:
Hey, I copied it across as LEO_animated.gif, but it copied straigh across, instead of replacing an old one?

Well, it worked anyway but now Im wondering how I had the old animation xD

oh and croden keep up the good work, love this thread :p and my request:

more asians please ^_^

(btw say if I wanted to make my own welcome animation, are there any specific rules I need to follow such as a certain filesize or something?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
If you want the old animation back just download it from the first post and replace LEO_animated.gif in windows with it .).

ok wait for next update =).

You need only resolution of image 800x480px and format .png.

EDIT: Sorry! My fault, i think you mean welcomehead (no animation). For animation you need format .gif.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] [★]:
I thought only gif files were animated?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jgal:
I suggest you download one of the animated gif's mentioned in this thread and have a look at their properties ;) and try to make something similar in properties. In my opinion the resolution is most important - I guess it should be 800x480. As for the file size, I guess it wont matter untill the animation becomes too "heavy" for the phone to handle ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tonycosta:
like the annimated gif. Good work

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
Update 2: New 2 animated screens.

I use image from offical site, i dont use font.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kenkiller:
Thanks for the animated gifs....still find the first one with white background most visually stunning....the new ones are a tad too simple for me. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
First one image in white is here: whitehtc, but i dont know how to replace it =X.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kenkiller:
Huh? I meant the animations on the first white animated gif was much nicer than the newer black swipes on the new ones.....that's all. :D

It just made the bootup more fun. :D At least I won't be tired of all the reboots.

Maybe something similar, the cutesy animations on a gif with a black background instead? That would be more fitting for the color code of the phone itself. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Croden:
Sorry, i have sometimes problems with my english so i dont understand. Well, it does not matter.

Maybe later x)

[HD2 General] MacGyver4321:
Hi,

Received my HD2 a few days ago and had no problem making calls with the OEM BT Handsfree of my 2009 3-serie BMW.

Until I discovered that I coudn't use it to receive calls !

The HF picks-up the call OK via the iDrive or steering wheel button, but audio is dead. Both parties can's hear anything.

It's actually possible to make it work two ways: first, by answering the call via the phone button instead of the car's one, or second, by answering with the steering button or iDrive having no audio first, then by going to the phone and disconnect and reconnect the Handsfree via the phone menu and at that point the audio comes back working ok.

It is a real disapointment as my previous Diamond touch was working flawlessly in the same car.

Not to mention that it pretty useless like that because of the danger implied by trying to rush to the phone in a deap pocket or in the arm's rest compartment to push the answer key.

I hope HTC will fix that soon as it pretty useless for guys like me, working 2h of their day in the car. It seems they changed from a MS BT stack to a Widcomm, loosing compatibility in the process...

Anyone experienced the same yet ?

Yves.
[HD2 General] kmeta:
Yes, i have similar problem with my BWM X5 Bluetooth.

When i am on call and same time put they key can't hear nothing from phone and from hands free. Same is if go out from the car and have call in same moment.

With my previos phone HTC HD - all working great.
[HD2 General] MacGyver4321:
Ok, thanks for the reply.

I really think it is due to the change of BT stack.

BTW, did you file a ticket to HTC support ?

I did yesterday, obviously no answer yet but could you do it too ?

The more we are, better are the chances that they do something for the next rom.
[HD2 General] catastrat:
Hello,

here is my issue with the BT connection: I have a Pioneer F900BT unit in my car. With my previous Nokia E66 everything worked just fine.

Now, when connecting with HD2, conection works ok, phonebook is downloaded ok, BUT: when there is a call, the music in the car is not silented automatically; what's worse, it seems the phone doesn't send any call identification to the headunit, since all the history (outgoing, incoming calls) is empty. So, I cannot redial or see who's calling me.

I did try the fix in the registry described earlier on this thread, but it doesn't help.

Any idea?

Thank you.
[HD2 General] twisted-pixel:

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] skiiman1:
Hi Guys..

I have a Verizon non modded phone. I would like to upgrade WM 6.1 --> 6.5 and was wondering how to go about doing this..

The EURO HTC site has a WM 6.5 download...would that work? I head Verizon does not have a 6.5 download yet so that is why I am asking.

Your help is very much appreciated!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] AxlR:
I think you can't download Rom from official site, you must type you IMEI and than download ROM but as I know US phones are not supported. But you can download cooked Rom from this forum. They are even beter than orginal ones.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] skiiman1:
So if I can't download from the official site and need to download a cooked rom...which one would be best and how would these cooked roms differ from the official?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cbreze:
The Euro site is showing the gsm ROM. It will not work with verizon. Try a cooked ROM for cdma(verizon). If you don't end up liking it try another or swap back to the oem verizon ROM. Possibilities aplenty.:)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] MetalHd:
Slimmer, faster, better battery, no fluff or trialware!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] swaze:
Ok, after I installed the gutted ROM I have the double messages again even I get a text. But there isn't anywhere to choose handcent as default, like it was prior to rooting. I go into the settings on both handcent and stock msg and there is no option to make either a default. I assumed when I sent my first text from handcent I would get the message, but nope. Can anyone tell me how to make handcent default so I can stop getting 2 messages?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] beartrap:
In the stock messaging app, go into settings and de-select Auto-retrieve and de-select Notifications. Close that and go to your People app and select someone to send a text message (don't do this in the Handcent app) and you should get a text box to choose which app to use and be sure to select Handcent as the dafault action.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] omeganot:
Make sure notifications are turned off in the stock SMS app. That's all I had to do to get Handcent to be my default SMS app. You can also clear your settings, much like you'd do to switch between Sense UI and the stock home screen.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] swaze:
Perfect!! That worked great, thanks for the help guys.
