Guest dave106 Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 i noticed vistablissone doesnt include a landscape background, leaves grey areas either side. it is easy enough to mod the tsk to include one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pd.ryder Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 (edited) Please don't move or remove this thread :) It's likely to be a while until I get the 3100 and if I d/l all the apps now they'll be updated or simply bettered by the time I need 'em (sods law!) ;) :D Edited August 13, 2006 by pd.ryder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest awarner (MVP) Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Only if the battery has not been sitting on a shelf for too long :) Still good to give it a top up charge of around four hours, and it should show a full charge before that time though.

Cheers. I tried to copy HTC Green Theme onto my Wizard (I have not made the great leap forward, just waiting for the TMobile Vario II) but no way. I got an error message ;) No problem with the MoDaCo tweaked VistaBliss theme though. Any idea why? Surely the HTC Green Theme tsk file should install on any win mobile 2005 device :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Strange :) I'll try it on my Prophet and see if it works. P [Edit: Tried on my Prophet (copied the .tsk to 'My Documents') and it works fine! ;)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'lkl try from my work pc tomorrow I had the same problem, but got round it by copying the whole .zip file onto the phone and then used the phone's ZIP utility to extract the .tsk into My Documents. Worked a treat and I've now got a nice gaudy green theme on my phone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mewcenary Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Thanks a lot for this post. The Battery stuff is awesome, and the Wireless Today plug-in is really useful. One thing that was annoying me with the M3100 default setup was how fiddly it was to turn wireless on and off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that was annoying me with the M3100 default setup was how fiddly it was to turn wireless on and off. Surely it was (and still is) "push comm mgr button, click on wireless" ? (especially as clicking on the netui/wireless plug in doesnt open com mgr anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest coercri Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Is there anyway to remove the Orange today screen customisation? I always like a clean machine myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Other than just going into the Today settings and turning it off? You could hard reset then break out before it installs the EXTROM, but then you'd be missing other stuff too. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
