Guest boo13 Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 hi everyone. ok, here's the deal. i copied a layout from my sister's phone (WM2002) and it's named simple.home and i pasted it into the /windows folder on my phone (WM2003). now, do i have to install it or something? do i do that from the phone, or do i need a program to install it? cuz when i select it on my phone, all it says is ... "No home screen layouts can be found. Install a valid home screen layout and then select it using the Home Screen item in Settings" can anyone figure out how to install layouts on the phone? any kinda help would be appreciated. thanks a lot!!

Guest hotphil Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 Where on the phone have you put the files? I believe it needs to be IPSM\Application Date\Home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Disco Stu Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 That's correct. You will lose the file in the \Windows directory as it is rewritten when you restart the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest awarner [MVP] Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 All homescreen themes need to be in the Application Data\Home folder ubnless the file is a cab or hme extension and then you need the file to install them rather than place the files in there yourself.
