Ah ok, got it. Yes, that is done by editing the xml file to place the plugin for the shortcut icons in different places on the homescreen. Basically, you're just changing the placement of it by editing the code for it. ~maria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LuvrGirl Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Thank you. I am alittle new to modding a smart phone, so please bear with me. My last mods were on the razor line. could you maybe give a step by step. which xml file am I looking for? The xml file you would be looking for depends on which homescreen you're currently using. For example, if you're using the Smartphone homescreen, the xml file is called cingular.home.xml (this file is located in Application Data\Home) [make sure to uncheck hide system/hidden files under Tools>Options before you use the Explore function to browse the device's folders & files] - copy the file to your computer so you can make your changes/edits and then copy it back over to your device - rename the Smartphone to whatever title you want; for example: Smartphone with changes [tip: if you want to change the placement of the shortcuts, you would look for the plugin for shortcuts and change the x, y coordinates accordingly] Here's a couple links with xml tutorials to give you an introduction to xml editing: http://www.modaco.com/content/smartphone-c...ml-homescreens/ http://www.everythingq.com/forum/q-home-sc....html#post75827 ~maria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
