Guest bosshogg Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 good work on this! I've noticed that when you unlock the keypad the animation doesn't start until the next key press...is that by design? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed that when you unlock the keypad the animation doesn't start until the next key press...is that by design? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Its a side effect of not letting the anim play because the keypad is locked. i.e. you don't know its unlocked until it is, and by then your not pressing any keys. There proberely is a work around, but I decided the effort wasn't worth the gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Smartphone XP Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 I've uninstalled and reinstalled the animated homescreen plugin a few times on my Audiovox SMT5600, and am still not getting animated homescreens. It simply shows the first frame of the demon or river, with no animation. I've installed the plugin using both the EXE installer and the CAB, with the same results. Any ideas?

Guest James Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 this is really nice... just been playing and have got a really simple matrix animation working now :lol: if you want to see it just download this zip and replace the files (keep backups) in 'Storage/Application Data/Home' and do a re-boot.. sorry for the simple manual format :( EDIT: you need to install the 'river' one first...simple_matrix_files.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured it would be a backlight issue. Yep, it was. Make sure your backlight is not set on "never". Setting it on 60 sec works fine.

Guest mavisdavis Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 I still cant get this to bloody work on my c500 yet on my E200 it went on straight away. I think I may have installed the river homescreen 1st then installed the plugin so my Question is this - Does the installation leave any files anywhere when you uninstall it that will know th plugin wasn't installed 1st? I done a browse but not found any. I've looked everwhere trust me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Smartphone XP Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 Okay, I guess you can chalk it up to user error. I had set my Backlight time out to Never, which basically prevented it from animating. I figured that since the Backlight was on, it should animate until the Display time out, but looks like that is not the case. Thanks... I had trouble seeing the animations on my MPx220.

Its best to change the homescreen to something else, switch off and on again, then uninstall. Im not sure why your having trouble - whats you backlight timeout set to, as someones rightly spotted it does'nt work if its set to never. I'll address this and release a fix ASAP. Set to say 60 seconds and hopefully that'll work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest madbeetle Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 :lol: :( :D :D FINALLY it was the backlight setting after all :D Phew I thought I'd gone mad for a bit then :D Edit > Doh you beat me to the answer :oops: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> OK, yes its the backlight. It doesn't work if its set the NEVER. I've fixed it ! But I'll test it for a day before releasing a new version. What I've done is :- It will timeout on the smallest value between the backlight and the display timeout. If there is no smallest i.e. they are both set to NEVER it will default to 2 minutes. If that works I'll release the fixed version tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zoegod Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 (edited) The plugin will only work on Windows 2003 SE phones - C500, SP3i, SMT5600, MPX220 etc .. as its these phones that have the ability to detected the backlight going out. Darn! :exclaim: left out again! :( need to buy a newer phone but 2003 units are not available yet here in our country. is there a chance a 2002 version be created even without the backlight detection support. just to impress nokia users with a moving wallpaper. hehehe :lol: Edited February 17, 2005 by zoegod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KingDaddy Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 (edited) Do you need the entire homescreen for signing, or just the ANI file? *EDIT* Guess I should have just read the FAQ!

Guest madbeetle Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Just the ani file needs signing - but please read http://www.madbeetle.com/mbanimplughelp.html ****************************************************************** New version of the plugin is now available. It fixes the NEVER setting for the backlight. It now uses the smaller value of between the backlight timeout or the display. If both are never, it'll be 60 seconds. http://www.madbeetle.com/Homescreen.html and it works on 2003 (not just seconds edition). Sorry no 2002 support. ****************************************************************** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
