Most of you will probably be familiar with various apps from Resco, for example the excellent Photo Manager, Contact Manager or the beta of the new Keyboard (v6). Although their interface looks quite good, I'm sure many people, including me, would still like to be able to skin them according to their own tastes.

So, I need someone who can develop a small app for Windows which does the following:

A skin consists of two files, Name.rpk and Name.VGA.rpk, where Name can be whatever the name of your skin should be. From what I see, these files are actually just collections of PNGs in one file, so the structure is like this:

52 50 23 (...) 89 50 4E 47 (...) 49 45 4E 44 AE 42 60 82 (...) 89 50 4E 47 (...) 49 45 4E 44 AE 42 60 82

The first chunk marks the beginning of the RPK, then there are all the PNGs which means. Each PNG is precceded with a slash and filename, e.g. \arrow_left.png, and begins with the sequence 89 50 4E 47 and ends with 49 45 4E 44 AE 42 60 82. So, the app should be able to "extract" (which means here just slicing the file) all PNGs and save them as 1.png, 2.png and so on, and be able to build the RPK with the modified PNGs.

I hope my explanation was understandable, at least I can assure you it should be a pretty easy job to do. Any dev who wants to do this? Remember, if you're using one of the mentioned apps you could benefit from it as well ;).
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Livven:
Shameless push - anybody? If you don't get what I mean feel free to ask :).
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Lycox:
I thought the same. It's a shame, that the resco team encrypt/compress/ciwhyw their graphic files :mad:

Couldn't understand why they did that :confused::confused::confused:
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Livven:
Actually, it isn't encrypted or compressed in any way - I guess my description wasn't very good. Anyway, if you just copy and paste the mentioned segment between 89 50 4E 47 and 49 45 4E 44 AE 42 60 82 into a new file (using a hex editor), it's a PNG. I tried it for some and it works, but I can't do this with every PNG, so I hope someone can make a small app which just does this.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Lycox:
I still understood your description. They put all pngs in just one file ;)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Livven:
Ah okay, I was just afraid my description wasn't understandable...

Anybody want to help me? It's really an easy job :)!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] rkrishnan2012:
id love to make the app....ill try to give it a shot and post back in this thread.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Livven:
Awesome, thanks a lot! If there's anything unclear just ask, I can't be 100% sure that there's nothing else inbetween the PNGs but we have to try before doing anything else... :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] rkrishnan2012:
when you say " and begins with the sequence 89 50 4E 47 and ends with 49 45 4E 44 AE 42 60 82. ", what do you mean? Should i open the png in a text editor? hex?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Lycox:
This looks like HEX Code
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Livven:
Yes, they're hex. Looking forward to it :).
[Windows Mobile Software Development] AndrewSh:
OK, Russians did that job long ago. Sorrowfully the utility does not work with new Keyboard 6.0 rpk skins. I suppose - Resco changed some features of their secret packer.

You can anyway try the tool - at least it works for Contact Manager. Maybe you can fix it to work with Keyboard skins

The translation of HOWTO inside:

Put the skin file to the folder with program.

Unpack:

RescoCMSkinMaker -u skinname.rpk

skinname.rpk - skin file name.

After Unpack you get the folder 'skin' with png files and configuration file (don't touch config file). You free to edit png files

Pack:

RescoCMSkinMaker -p skinname.rpk

skinname.rpk - skin file name.

After Pack complete - you get your new skin in the folder with program.

For your convenience author created two bat-files. Just edit them to change skin files names.

I wrote PM to the author of the program asking him to modify his tool for new Resco Keyboard skin files. I will inform when (or if) he replies........
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Livven:
Wow, thanks a lot, going to try it!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] AndrewSh:
Utility author already answered me - asked to upload new keyboard skins (from 6.0 ver). I sent him Default, Gray and Options.rpk and now I'm waiting for the reply....
[Windows Mobile Software Development] AndrewSh:
New Resco Skin Maker - works for all Resco products.

HowTo is the same as for the old ver

Two versions inside the archive - for win32 and for wince

Author: Ветошкин В.В. aka en-trance (4pda.ru).
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Livven:
Be sure to give the author a huge thanks from me! That's awesome!

Just one suggestion (if you could relay it to the author): When packing/unpacking a skin, use the original name of the RPK for the folder and vice versa and put the images into the same folder as the XAML file. Minor things which would make this perfect ;).
[Windows Mobile Software Development] en-trance:
Files are unpacking as in the program. And it would be wrong to put them into one folder.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] schniesich:
Hi,

[Windows Mobile Software Development] steff195:
Great tool, I can unpack just fine, edit the pngs (only);), but I can't pack back the rpk file. I mean it packs a rpk file named newskin.rpk, but it only has 7 bytes, while the original skin has around 50kb. And, of course, that file is not working on my ppc. What am I doing wrong?

Any help, please?... thanks alot!

nope should work fine ive got X2 1400 nexus replacement batterys and using them both totally find in my desire for the last month
[Desire Accessories] zkyevolved:
The back door provided for your boss's nexus one won't fit yours. If you can get one, let us know which one! The only other extended batteries i've seen are 3200 mah, and I think that's too much for me. I think 2000+ would be perfect.
[Desire Accessories] sactoguy:
I too have an original nexus one battery which fits and works great on my Desire.
[Desire Accessories] ugmeme123:
does the 3200mah battery fit well with the desire and where can i find these? its 2 times the battery life duration right?
[Desire Accessories] kevinsmbuk:
Just to clarify he owns a desire not a nexus one.

But there is a battery being solder under the name of nexus one, but the part number corresponds with a desire battery, so presumably it would work since they are the same part number?

You're SOL my friend. Legally no one can give you the Transformer movies back. Here is the link for the TMOUS HD2 cabs for MobiTv. Haven't seen Guitar Hero since it is the full game. Really you're only other option is to go into a T-Mobile store and see if they have a return or extra phone that they can swap out the SDCard for you.
[HD2 General] Paten:
Your best bet is to have a friend with an HD2 and copy their card to a PC and then back to your formatted drive. If you don't have any friends with an HD2, then go to the HD2 Themes and Apps forum and the first sticky is for a thread called "T-Mobile US Stock Apps + Game DEMOS + Fixes - GET THEM HERE - NEW 2.13 REQUESTS!!". They have most, not all, of the apps for the stock disk located there.

Googled for a little while but couldn't find anything.

I would like to use the official 2.1 home app.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks in advance
[Hero, G2 Touch General] JW 301:
this is how it worked in 1.5, not sure if it does in 2.1 as i don't use it yet.

in 1.5 you could go to settings->applications and in the list of installed applications there also was "HTC Sense". if you looked at the details you could see that it was the default app for some actions and there was a button "delete default settings" or something like that. after that, when you hit the home button, you would get a question dialog asking if you want to use Launcher or HTC Sense for that action. you could also select to always use this setting there.

an alternative (also only tested by me in 1.5) could be the app "home switcher" that shows you all home apps installed and lets you select

hope that is helpful ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] DaanJordaan:
I know, but this doesn't work anymore. I got used to sense now, but I'm getting really annoyed right now! It's just too SLOW

can you share how you disabled Sense? i don't want to uninstall it completely

ok, i guess the htc didn't want users to switch to the default interface.

however, I attached the Launcher.apk from the emulator running 2.1, maybe it is possible to install it on hero as well.

hope it works!

VillainROM 10.3 FINAL – Based on OTA Official 2.1 for GSM Hero

*New in.10.3*

Here it is, at long last. To all those that have stuck by me (and the rest of the VillainROM team) since I began

developing for the Hero in January, thank you. I hope this ROM is the ROM you’ve been waiting for.

Yesterday morning, an OFFICIAL GSM HERO 2.1 Patch, complete with Radio arrived in my dropbox with a simple message – ‘OKAY TO RELEASE’. Within 10 minutes, Pulser and I had stripped it down and began rebuilding it. We’re pleased to say folks, it’s a great ROM; and it’s fast.

A quick word from kendon: i will try to set up a kitchen on saturday. i know it's urgent

A full wipe (data & dalvik-cache & sd-ext) is higly recommended to avoid problems of any kind!

DOWNLOAD HERE

What works?

Everything, of course.

What extras are included/What’s been done?

Custom OC Kernel (up to 690mhz), thanks to our very own Kendon.

Superuser – ROOT access

Busybox

VPN Modules

Apps2SD

Optimizations to cache management

Multi language support

Voice search and dialer

Optimized applications

HTC modified keyboard

Gallery 3D

Wifi Tethering via aNetShare

What is missing?

For example Friendstream. HTC made it very difficult for us to add stuff like Friendstream, but we are working on it. Wait patient for the OTA!

Why VillainROM 10?

Because it is finally a release build on an official update!

APNs work out the box for most major networks.

Please note: due to a technical limitation with the VillainROM OTA Updater it shows VillainROM7.0.0 in Firmware version. This is correct, it is equal to VillainROM10 (as it says in Build number)

Kernel sources available on github (http://github.com/kendon/HeRo-2.6.29-GoDmOdE)

- thanks to Behnam/toastcfh for the original modified sources

Special Thanks to: Pulser, HomerSP, Shen, Kendon, LennyUK, Jeremy, McDuck, MikeCoffee, Behnaam, Paul,jnwhiteh,

Tristan202, RaiderX & anyone else that's ever helped, in any way with hosting, development, and theming.

If you like this ROM - Give it 5 stars. We don't mind whether or not you donate, we just hope you like it :)

I get frequent FC's from VillainROM Updater, and when I downloaded SenseVillain 10 the checksum didn't match and it flashed partially with some elements of the default theme still remaining. I restored my nand backup and tried again with the same result. What can be the problem regarding these FC's? I wouldn't really want to reflash, but if it's necessary i'll do it.

Thanks
