more solutions...

3. to remove the inbuilt themes like dvf green, vera wang red, etc. etc. just delete the theme_dpi_96 folder in the kitchen\SYS\23544\dpi_96\COMMON folder...

to add your own themes copy the .tsk files into the kitchen\SYS\23544\dpi_96_resh_240_resv_320\0409\Themes_Lang_0409_DPI_96_RESH_240_RESV_320 folder and delete the inbuilt .tsk files you'll find there

*NOTE*

for those who want to have a modified theme, i suggest editing the .png images in the folder mentioned below...the ones with "classicblue" "default" and "black" at the start of their name to your preference and leaving the classicblue.tsk file untouched so that this theme becomes your own in case you install another theme and want to go back to your edited theme

7. edit the .png images in the kitchen\SYS\23544\dpi_96\COMMON\Base_DPI_96 folder...

the softkey icons are the ones with names like default_toolbarIconBubbleButton.png...they're all around the same area, so easy to find...

for editing, i suggest using photoshop of you have it, else an easier alternative is the paint.net editor available at http://paint.net

8. now i couldn't get a transparent taskbar and softkey bar on the today screen without using titanium but i did manage to get it to be fractionally more translucent but editing the .png files found in the folder mentioned above

i'll attach the files if needed...

my ROM's coming along so i'll keep you posted with more solutions as they come along...have fun cooking!!

Suggestion

Remove all landscape theme files, bcs no-one uses the GENE in landscape mode and it will make the ROM lighter in weight
[P3400 ROM Development] psychocyst:
the rom i'm working on (and using for testing purposes) doesn't have landscape theme files...i've just added the wallpaper for kicks...

thanx for the input though...its weird getting 275 views and just 3 replies...

[HD2 General] matt_attack_2k1:
I may be repeating this but i've only just noticed why mine hasn't been working...

Basically where i've imported all my sim contacts to my phone, all it has done is put their name in the Last name field, for example..

John Smith has been imported as

First name :

Last name: John Smith

By editing this to

First Name : John

Last Name: Smith

it comes up to link their facebook including birthday, profile picture ...ect

Sorry if this has been said before but maybe some people are having the same problem and this may fix it.
[General Questions and Answers] machepablo:
Hello

I not sure if this is the right place to post this but...

Has anyone else found that Zip Mobile on Windows Mobile v6.1 is using storage space when unziping files and not returning the space once closed?

I have just noticed that there is now 10mb less storage left on my internal memory after unzipping a 58mb file on my memory card to my memory card (I have checked and the data was definatly unzipped to my memory card).

As i am using an Acer M900 storage memory starts at 128mb and any remaining memory is like gold-dust!

I can't understand why this would happen or how to reclame the lost internal storage memory...

Please can anyone help?

Many thanks

[General Questions and Answers] Fallen Spartan:
Sounds like your phone is creating a duplicate file in a folder to enable you to view a file within a zipped folder. You'll need to find the location of this folder which contains the duplicate file and delete it.

Did you do a wipe before changing from cm to enom rom?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jz9833:
This is a common problem I have all the time.

It's probably a zip file you are trying to download so make sure you have android winzip on your phone. Then it will dl. I know, I also have other programs that can read zip files, but for some reason without this program its hit or miss if they will download.

Hi,

So, I installed QuickMenu from PocketPC Freewares:

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-quickmenu-v2-7.html

Problem is what worked with WM6.1 doesn't work with WM6.5. It doesn't start up after a soft reset even though the options are set to start up after reset.

Can anyone recommend an alternative program for QuickMenu that does work in WM6.5?

Thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] sanjsrik:
anyone?

have any alternatives? I'm thinking that there has to be something but searching google for Quickmenu alternatives doesn't lead to anything major.

Any help? Please?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] raphaelcno:

[G1 Android Development] realbigdreamer:
Hey guys,

I have been following these forums for quite some time and finally I have decided to join.

The problem I have is as follows;

I own a HTC Dream that runs on Android 1.5 and everything (recovery, radio, SPL) is just as I got it. Now, I live in South Africa and I know what I have to do to flash the recovery, rom etc. However I cannot do this. There are two things that I have tried:

1) The normal guide from the Cyanogen wiki. The first step to downgrade to RC7 or RC29 is where I get the problem. My HTC loads the dreaimg.nbh and then it tells me that I cannot update as I have the "wrond device id". This is after trying both RC versions. I assume this is because I have a South African G1.

2) I used the instant root application to root my HTC successfully. Then I try to load a new recovey image (CM 1.4, Amon Ra etc). It flashes the recovery but when restarting and trying to run recovery it, it just doesn't load. It freezes with the HTC Dream logo. I have flashed my recovery backup again.

Can someone please help me? I really want to try some custom roms. I would really appreciate any advice or info that might help me.

Thanks

[HD2 General] anhhai:
Any of you guys experiencing this? It was working this morning, then I went to check it this afternoon and it had logged itself out. I went to log back in and it tries to log in and then just goes back to the login screen. Any help would be much appreciated.

Nevermind. It's just decided to start working again. What a retarded application. Anyone know the difference between free and paid version of moTweets?
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
I had similar to this a week or so ago, I must admit, it was due to me doing a clear out of "temp" files :rolleyes:

If you go to the Settings Tab, then into Data Services, switch off the Twitter (under 'Social Networks') and press back.

Now, using a file explorer (I have Total Commander for example), there is a "Temp" folder in the root of all the files.

In there, there is "TwitEng", remove this (or rename it if you wish).

Reboot the device, and then go to the Settings Tab again, then into Data Services, switch Twitter back on.

You should now be able to log in.

[HD2 General] dood:
Hmmm - I've just started having the same problem on my HD2. I've tried both of the suggestions above to no avail. I'd also read somewhere that I should log out of any desktop session of Twitter as well after removing Peep in the online settings and have found that this hasn't helped.

I wonder if anyone has been able to fix or even reinstall peep using a .cab, before I go looking for another app to use instead. - It'd be a shame as it is handy having peep in the Sense menu.

I don't really see why you would like WinMo on that phone.

Android is a nice platform as well as Windows Mobile. and it got a better market place.

It is probably possible, but then people needs to get they're hands on drivers and so on first.
[XPERIA X10 General] szlevi:
I hope it meant to be a joke... Windows Mobile is a piece of ****, I am more than ready to forget it for the rest of my life. Ahh and Windows Mobile 7 seems to be even worse, thanks to the removal of multitasking, the sole reason I used WinMo for years.
[XPERIA X10 General] njao:
well when i first saw this phone i was like I GOTTA HAVE THAT PHONE... then i saw it ran android Q.Q and my dream phone got flushed in the toilet before even getting it!!! so its a very legit question if anyone have any interest in porting winmo to it!!! i love winmo and i have so many programs for it... but ill probably buy it anyway even if it got the little green leprechaun in it... or should i wait for a SE wp7s... haha jk thatll be like 2 years from now if im lucky.....
[XPERIA X10 General] krabman:
Why not just go with the HD2?
[XPERIA X10 General] solidkevin:
Windows mobile is terrible and outdated, android owns it in every way, why would you take it over WM? Also if you want WM that badly with awesome hardware just get the HD2, thats like people asking for the supersonic to have WM LOL, sure the Supersonic is better a bit hardware wise, but not by a crazy margin imo.
[XPERIA X10 General] orelsi:
Sigh... WinMo is still the most productive, customizable and functional OS out there. Also, the best busineess solution.

Andorid is still in diapers. Maybe one day it will be able to do as much as WinMo, but for now, it can't.

I agree that there is no sense in porting a different OS to a phone not made for it, except if it's dual-boot, which is cool.
[XPERIA X10 General] njao:
dual-boot would be awesome! its true what you write about android and winmo!

and to the other post i really dont want the hd2... i dont think it is apealing to me the x10 is the nicest design ive seen in a phone for awhile imo! plus in Sweden at least you get the blue tooth headset with it! which is a big plus!
[XPERIA X10 General] menay:

I Agreed. ;)

I was going through this forum and saw a few people asking for Skype Lite. I found the apk on my G1 and thought i would put it here for you guys. If its against the rules feel free to remove it or let me know.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
yes, unforutnately fring is the only real skype platform that works - actually it's quite good, msn, yahoo and twitter integration

i just hate the fring user interface, and it sometimes re-downloads tweets all the time when switching cell towers (annoying)... seems it's not saving the chats/tweets locally
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] eli1981:
it's not the only one

nimbuzz support skype calls too, and i think its better in that area in comparison to Fring

i can't get Nimbuzz running.

when trying to call someone the app crashes. I get the waiting tone fine, but then it ends with a crash. can't even find out whats happening.

running aHero 0.5.2 ROM, don't know if that has something to say.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] hktony:
skype lite cause system instability to CM latest rom and force closed all the time.

nimbuzz and fring works great too, but nimbuzz seems use lot of battery life and cant show skype contacts when hiding offline ppl.

fring works great as nimbuzz, and use less memory and less battery draining . and can display both msn and offline skype ppl at the same list :).
