The only theme I seem to like on the Blackjack 2 is the Samsung Simple, just because it gets rid of all that clutter. The only problem is that under the Calender Appointment view, the times are all in 24 hour format (military time). I was wondering if anyone knew anyway to alter it to 12 hour format. Is there a RegEdit or anything?

You'll find the setting for that under Regional Settings.

[Chikko24]

Regional Settings seems to only alter time/date. My clock is perfect fine in 12-hour mode, so I dont think Regional Settings will apply. I'm speaking of the Calender Reminder inside the scroll bar on the home screen of the Samsung Simple theme. It stays is 24-hour format despite my Regional Settings.

Anyone have more ideas?

I have a problem with this too. I can read Military time but I'd prefer not to. Why would the do this? Fail!

[hagie92]

I have this problem too. I think its more complicated then changing time and date under "regional settings", I actually believe it is embedded within the xml code, and some editing to the theme itself would have to be done. I also think it would be really cool if we could get this little theme to change colours like the rest of the status bars, (such if you had the start menu red...samsung simple would change, but no matter what it is still that drab grey & green)

If anyone has some experience with altering xml code, if you dont mind, take a whack at this for us!

I, too, have this issue, and also do not like the "drab gray & green". I've searched high and low (and in between) for any hacks for the Samsung Simple homescreen, but found nothing. I DID find the .xml file on my phone, but am having trouble locating exactly where to change the green color on the clock. Is this even possible? I'm also trying to get rid of the "No Media" line. Any help would be awesome!

Does anyone have any ideas regarding the .xml file I've posted above? I'm pulling my hair out! Any help is much appreciated!!!
