Hi,

Not sure of the best thread to post, so figured I try the master theme thread.

See the screen shots below.

Can anyone help me with knowing what file creates this BLUE SELECTOR in the various pop ups for File Manager, Total Commander, etc, essentially those programs that are straight WM6 and not Manila related. I found files to get the Manila BLUE SELECTOR, but am stumped on the BLUE SELECTOR in the various pop ups for File Manager, Total Commander, etc.

I am using cooked HTC Topaz / AT&T Pure ROM WVGA, close to stock, with WM6.5.x, Manilla 2.5_2012.1225_HTC Sense, Cookie 1.7.0.

I suspect there is bmp, jpg, png file and perhaps a registry entry to direct to the specific file?

Anyway, thanks in advance for your help.

This is Manila related, as it's HTC Menu Enhancement and not the stock WM menu.
[Windows Mobile Themes] malloy0:
Livven,

Thanks. So how can I get this blue selector and the HTC Enhanced Menu files, cab, etc?

Can you help?

Thank you!!!

m0

P.S. I love your Livven SimpleGloss Themes 192dpi.cab themes!! Blue is the best. :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] ctbear:
The menu in your screenshots are HTC enhanced i.e. not native WM

You need to modify the corresponding manila files

Find those files, export png using CFCGUI, edit the png then convert it back to manila files :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] malloy0:
Ok, after hours and hours and hours, I finally figured it out. It was easy, once I figured this out.

Bottom line...the file HTCMenus.png in the \Windows directory is what controls the selector highlight for NON Manila files (the screen shots below are .jpg files). The goofy thing is that dependind on what version of HTC Menu Enhancment you may have, based on of ROM Chef, this HTCMenus.png file may need to be changed, that is in the graphic size.

I learned this too late after finding this thread on the HTC Menu Enhancements CAB files by

Co0kieMonster at this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=508919.

Also, as part of this experience, I learned which files effect the highlights for Manila selectors. These files may be too many, but, I know this worked for me, see below for the list and the ZIP that has these. I found I could just copy them to the \Windows directory using Resco Explorer.

Anyway, hopefully this will provide some help to folks and save them a bunch of time, that I had hoped to avoid, but...

[XPERIA X10 General] Astral07:
I dont know how to take a screen shot on the phone and i dont have another camera to take a picture of it :-)

Fun idea tho :-)

I can tell you that on my left screen i use for all my shortcuts/icons and on my right screen i have all my gadgets ie. For turning on/off wifi bt etc, then weather conditions widget and some reminders color note.

My main screen i keep pretty simple, with a analog clock and standard icons + email and task killer icon.
[XPERIA X10 General] thefunkaygibbon:
You can download 'PicMe' from the market for free.

You need to be on a WiFi network and it works a charm. You start it on your phone, then open up a website on the IP address the phone gives you, then it gives you a screenie of what you have on your phone then.

It even allows you to control it through your PC (albeit a little slowly)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Hello folks,

I am asking this on behalf of a collegue at work who is considering buying an Android phone (Hero or Desire).

Assuming he did go for one of the above phones, he wants to set up the HTC Mail app with his work email account, which should be straight forward enough, but he would also like to set a limit on the incoming attachment size so it does not eat into his data plan.

Is this possible? If not natively then perhaps with an app?

He currently has a HTC TyTn which does have this functionality.

I would test it for him but I only use Gmail and I really don't want work emails on my personal phone.

Apologies if this has been discussed already, I did search but didn't find any useful info.

Cheers,

Lee
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peterc10:
Yep - on HTC standard mail app you can set download size limit. Just menu > more > Send & Recieve > Mail size limit.
[Touch2 General] d9530850:
How can I reinstall it?
[Touch2 General] TangerineTractor:
It will be there... you just deleted the shortcut. Use file manager, browse to windows, look for a program with the falsh icon on it. Hold the pointer down on it and select edit... copy. Then go into windows..start menu.. programs, and hold the pointer down in some empty space and select edit... paste link.
[Touch2 General] d9530850:
Thanks for your advice!

But I can't wait, did a hard reset yesterday!
[Touch2 General] d9530850:
BTW, I 'm sure the flash program was deleted but not the shortcut.

Thanks to SKTools, 'Abode Flash Lite' was checked by default in the program to be uninstalled list, u can't go back once u hit the 'action' button!
[Desire General] subharmonic:
Ok - I've finally got my email on my phone synced to googlemail, which in turn is synced to yahoo which was may bread and butter email client until I got this phone.

So - question is, why is my googlemail not showing any of today's emails, and yet I have already recieved about ten emails in my yahoo account?

Any ideas?
[Desire General] Fon22:
If you have asked google to transfer your emails from yahoo to google, it will not do it immediately.

Google will poll yahoo occasionally to collect emails, and then notify you about them all in one go.

You need to let all your contacts know your new google address as this will bring you notifications immediately. Also, google wont poll your yahoo address indefinitely , so at some point in the future, you will only be notified about new google emails and not new yahoo ones.

Fon22
[Desire General] subharmonic:
Seriously? What is the point in that? I would hardly call that syncing acounts, is it? So, if I want to continue using my phone with email, I essentially need to cancel my yahoo mail account that I've been using for over 10 years?
[Legend General] ajj_oslo:
Hi,

I luv my legend, but I have some very strange bugs.

- SMS does not vibrate in vibration mode

- call waiting does not alert so I never hear in coming call when in a conversation

- problems with call notification, it does not ring sometimes, even when in normal ring mode

Any idea guys?

BR
[Legend General] KK43:
for sms, in settings keep vibrate checked, then install sound manager and control vibrate mode from there, it'll work again. From the app under vibrate settings you can then also create a shortcut to vibrate settings so you can directly access it without having to open the app
[Desire General] Havok316uk:
Hi all, I have added the facebook facility to my desire and linked contacts to their fb accounts. However lloyds tsb sent me some details via text and it has been linked to a friends facebook account (despite not having them in my phone contacts) in my contacts list.
[Desire General] jamieyates79:
I've had exactly the same problem. I also had a text from Lloyds TSB a few days ago and it came up in my messages as being from a Facebook contact (which confused the hell out of my until I looked at the message details and realised it wasn't from this chap at all).

The same has just happened when I received a text from Mobile Fun saying that my Car Holder has just dispatched, the text said it was from the same contact.
[Desire General] Aitese:
Hi guys. A lot of people have found this bug. The first thing you need to do is check these friends contact details on Facebook. What I found when it happened to me was two of my Facebook contacts had "ask me" or "none of you business" in their profile under the Phone Number field. Sense UI imported this along with all their other details and so, you may not think they are in your phone contacts, they are saved with a phone number (which is just gibberish they entered in that field)

The only way I was able to solve it was to ask my contact to remove the field altogether from her profile, seeing as she didn't want to fill it out at all. I don't know why, but rather than leaving it blank people feel compelled to have some sort of silent protest at being asked in the first place and fill that field with fake numbers or random words.

The bug means when Sense picks up a message from an unknown source with a name where the phone number should be (in my case T-Mobile would send my allowance details and they would appear as T-Mobile) and then tries to find them in your phone book it attaches to the first contact it sees who also has text in their number field. I deleted a contact I wasn't really that keen on in the first place because of it.
[Desire General] gumbald:
I had a number of these in my phonebook - have just removed the Facebook contacts link until a fix is put in place.
[General Topics] eathernet:
Hi all,

New to XDA, reading plenty of posts and eagerly awaiting my HTC Desire (coming from the UK, obviously held up by the recent volcanic ash problems).

I've been working on an app called twot and thought someone here might benefit from it (?). It installs on your PC (very light, doesn't leak memory and works on XPSP2-Win7) and watches your desired twitter stream. The idea is, you tweet from your phone (or work, etc) and twot picks up your tweet and executes whatever script or application you choose.

I'm sure there's heaps of apps out there that do this, but I kind of wanted to design this one to do exactly what I want. It works off a simple mdb that you have to edit manually (sorry no GUI for this yet) that matches a recognized command with an action. For example, I control my aircon by using "ac on" and "ac off". When twot (running in the systray) picks up "ac on", it runs "ac_on.bat" in the application directory (specified in the db) which in turn uses psexec (included this, hstart, and a few other things in the zip to help script stuff up) to launch a script on my htpc, that uses ir server suite (awesome free tool) to issue a command to the ir transmitter to turn the AC on. I know it sounds like a long winded approach, but it's not that complicated (and it's free!).

I do the same to turn the virtual fireplace on (psexec in interactive mode) and initialize web cams around the house to take a picture and email it to whatever email address i specify. To deal with parameters I've told twot to watch for anything starting with "%". When it reads each tweet in and finds %'s, it treats them as parameters and stores them in an array. Then if it detects a command (eg, "webcam") it calls the specified application/script and parses the array of parameters to it. (eg. "c:\scripts\myscript.bat paramOne paramTwo"). The tweet looks like "webcam %paramOne %paramTwo".

Anyway, It's written in VB but i plan on porting it over to .net when i get a minute. I've attached the zip . It is a

very

early version so it will evolve. Feedback is always welcome :)

Oh also, If anyone wants the source, let me know. It's fairly basic code and quite short
[Click General] Musenkishi:
Really need some help guys. I have no recovery at all...

So i used the root in 1 click option... seems like I have root on my tattoo as I see # in adb shell (id shows root uid 0)... but I think I saw some error when it installed the custom recovery image and I can't seem to get access to it.

When I try to reboot into recovery it just freezes on the Tattoo-logo.

If I try to install recovery again with RecoveryTattoo.bat it just says that the header is fine and won't overwrite.

I got ahold of a flash_image binary from mainfram3 that overwrites even though the header is fine but this is the results:

# cd /data/local/bin
# ./flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery1click.img (recovery.img from rtattoo\sdcard)

No luck there... I get the message:

mtd: erase failure at 0x001c0000 (Input/output error)
mtd: erase failure at 0x001c0000 (Input/output error)
mtd: skipping write block at 0x001c0000

Seriously... I tried to re-flash it with RUU_Click_HTC_WWE_1.67.405.6_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver.exe and it just got stuck on the htc-logo.

I cant get custom recovery and I can't restore to stock... I'm stuck with root and therefore no warranty... I need all the help I can get! :(
[Click General] Musenkishi:
Okay, I got one step further. The reason that it stopped at the htc-logo is that I had the wrong drivers for my Win 7 x64 (usb 171 error) but I changed the driver to My HTC on BOTH bootloader and phone.

Now I tried to flash with RUU again (with gold card of course) and surprise! it went beyond the htc-logo and REBOOTED less than a second later... nothing happened.

I'm STILL stuck with no recovery... any help is appreciated.

EDIT: Succesful RUU-flash. Don't know why but I tried a second time and then it worked. I hate when things change their mind on their own... but oh well, I'm back to stock at least. Giving root + recovery another try.

EDIT 2: Ok, back to first problem. It still get the erase failure at 0x001c0000 so i guess it's hardware related? I do get a regular reboot at every 3rd or 4th day if that matters...

and then double click the exe file on the desktop ? usb has to be attached of course

Flashed correctly boot, i have # su grant but can't flash recovery:(
[Click General] dancer_69:
maybe you need to remound partitions first

try from adb shell:

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

first and then:

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
[Click General] LosLanges:
you need to boot in HBOOT mode than press BACK key to get to Fastboot USB Mode (USB connected) and than run the downloaded RUU with double click on the desktop (laptop or PC). and the RUU should be installed from PC. no need to put RUU on SD card.

I've also tried Rom Manager but nothing. tattoo stucks on logo when reboot to recovery.
[Click General] dancer_69:
I know that should mount them but maybe failed.

Doesn't hurt to double check it.

I don't remember well, but I think that some similar problems which had in the past caused to wrong tattoo-hack.co version.

You can try also to do the rooting manually or using another root app.
[Click General] sunitknandi:
Well, go back to stock again.

Then use Universal Androot to root your device.

After that, if u wish to use a custom recovery, grab flash_image and the tattoo_hack.ko .

Reboot your Tattoo. Connect it to PC. Start ADB.

Type:

adb shell

su

The SuperUser app might ask for permissions. Check remember and hit allow. You will get a #

Then type:

mkdir /data/local/bin

exit

adb push (path to flash_image on PC) /data/local/bin

adb push (path to tattoo_hack.ko on PC) /data/local/bin

adb push (path to Clockwork recovery on PC) /sdcard

adb shell

su

You will get a root shell again :)

Now type:

insmod /data/local/bin/tattoo_hack.ko

lsmod

If you see 'tattoo_hack' anywhere in the line that follows, then all is well!

Just type then:

/data/local/bin/flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

Wait. If there are no errors, the recovery is correctly flashed. Reboot to recovery and flash custom ROMs. Enjoy!
[Click General] sunitknandi:
Yes, you went the right way. Now that you have a different recovery flashed, try flashing clockworkmod again.

If that doesnt help, reboot your Tattoo, insert tattoo_hack.ko and try flashing clockworkmod again.

Out of memory occurs when the phone's RAM is full. Rebooting will solve the problem.
[Click General] doramon:
Repeated procedure...Same error
[Click General] sunitknandi:
There are possibly two reasons for this:

1. You do not have the correct tattoo_hack.ko version.

2. Your internal storage is full.

Possible solutions:

1. Get the correct module again, this time mount /system as RW, before flashing.

2. Try uninstalling some apps to free memory.

3. Try using the tattoo_hack.ko and flash_image present in maverixx's one-click root tool and push those two to the Tattoo and retry the method.

Note: I didnt have to do all of this as I used tattoo_hack.ko from maverixx's tool. For me, everything worked in the first try. I have an Indian Tattoo with original firmware version 1.67.720.8
[Click General] kejd:

Cheers.
[Click General] dancer_69:
I thought about wrong tattoo-hack.co too, but when googled about the errors posted, found that the common reason was that the filesystem wasn't mounted rw. For this I didn't mention it before.

Anyway, AFAIK there are two different versions of tattoo-hack.co. The one is this that you mentioned and the other I think is this:
[Click General] sunitknandi:
I think the tattoo_hack you posted is the Orange Tattoo version for the Orange firmware kernel.

Ok, just try first with maverixx's tattoo_hack.ko and let me know. The module and error let me know the tattoo_hack is right. If try you insert the wrong one the kernel wouldnt even accept, it would say 'invalid exec format'.
[Click General] doramon:
Invalid exec format....i used the correct tatto_hack.ko file.
[Click General] doramon:
I copied a rom manager file "erase_image" in /data/local/bin and then i did /data/local/bin/erase_image recovery before to flash a new one.

and the result?

mtd erase failure at 0x00260000. :mad:

my question is where is this damn address? the file flash_image what files write?

why this error is raised also after flashing RUU? when i flash an offiacial RUU i should have my tattoo like each other. maybe, there are files that remaining the same also after flashing RUU...

I hate that address:(
[Click General] sunitknandi:
Yay! Found a solution to your problem.

First do: insmod /data/local/bin/tattoo_hack.ko

Then: mount -o remount rw /system

Then: /data/local/bin/erase_image recovery

Finally: /data/local/bin/flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

Done!

Remember to use correct tattoo_hack.

Hi to everybody,

some days ago i realized my Tattoo doesn't vibrate anymore when i receive sms or email, although it vibrates when i've an incoming call.

Also, the vibration function is still activated for the sms (both in the standard HTC program and in the handcent SMS program). I uninstalled handcent sms, but nothing changed, the phone is rooted but i didnt't changed anything else (the Home is still the original one).

Any idea about how to solve this issue?
