Simple Homescreen

Afternoon everyone.

I've spent a while here looking round, picking up tips and tricks etc. Last week I finally got me a C500 to call my own, so I figured I really should start theming.

I know my preview is a bit bigger than most, but I had enough trouble getting that so bear with me.

Also, my first attempt at xml and cab files is probably not quite right so if anyone has any suggestions I'd be most grateful.

This theme is part mine and part Ruttensoft's Homescreen Designer's work, and I've also "borrowed" Crafty's phone image from his iCandy theme (I hope nobody minds?).

{EDIT} - CAB file replaced with latest version. Only a few more bugs to resolve ](*,)

not that I'm aware of. If there is one I didn't put it in on purpose. I've probably done something wrong in the xml or cab files - it's my first try after all

Okay, I have no idea why the background image isn't showing up. If anyone can help shed some light - I'm sure I did something wrong with either the CAB file or the INF file. (CAB file above, INF file here renamed as a txt file).

Okay, I figured it out, but introduced a new problem #-o

I wasn't putting the main standby image in the \home folder. I have now changed this (see the attchment below), but now when I turn the phone off, it shows the startup graphic rather than the shutdown one! I can't see anything obviously wrong with the cab file so if anyone can help with this I'd really appreciate it.

{EDIT} changed again because I'd managed to misspell the startmenu file so it wasn't loading. grr.

@mavisdavis - no idea, if I am it's unintentional.

@e200 - I've fixed the missed call code. I still have no idea where the orange bar comes from on the incoming call though, and I've found that when shutting down, the first shutdown image is correct, but the second one changes to the startup image, even though I've set it to be a shutdown image!!!!!

I've looked and still have no idea where this comes from. The incoming call image is 176x180 in size and should fit okay so something is putting it there on purpose - if anyone can help with this I'd appreciate it!

the number is really little on the missedcalls

on my phone the number is showing the same size as the preview above. I checked the xml file, and it is setting the font size to 32.9 - have you got anything installed on your phone that overrides this or is it something that can't be supported in an e200 (i assume that's what you're testing it on)?

I don t find else for now...
phew - I thought Id have more problems to be honest :lol:

Also all screens are little too bright.

I designed it to be that way. I wanted a simple, bright, clean theme. It's not built to anyone's design but my own, perhaps my next theme will be darker :(

thanks for the feedback :D

If anyone can help, especially with the orange bar problem, which seems to be the biggest problem at the moment, I'df appreciate it - the attached screens show what the incoming call image should look like, and what it looks like on the phone. Anyone recognise where this orange graphic comes from?

thanks Scott. I had already waded through the registry and made sure these settings were set to the correct images - which they are, so I'm still stuck :lol:

found an image (ms_mobile.gif) in the Windows folder, under :MSBranding registry key which looks similar to the orange bar, and also a registry entry called branding.gif under :BrandingBox which has no actual image stored anywhere!?!?!?

I've tried replacing both these but still this stupid orange bar insists on displaying. Is there ANYONE here who knows where this is stored?
