Guest midnight Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 Here it is folks, a World Exclusive (again :)), skinning of the shutdown and startup screen(s), thats right, screens, theres more than one, 2 screens on bootup and 2 on shutdown, and of course skinned all the other screens that i figured out for Alien Invention. Like Alien Invention, there is no selectable PC installer just yet (its coming), so this will install homescreen, extra screens, a few tweaks (led flash etc, removed all vibrate except ringer this time), and loads of sounds, with excellent music by Mick Rippon for the Ringtone. This is kind of still in development, so there is a couple of tiny glitches to work out. Note: The startup and shutdown screens only work on some versions of the OS unfortunately. You should still have one of the bootup screens though even if this is the case. Edit: Reboot as soon as the theme has installed (it will then turn on the extra screens) Enjoy!

Guest dinoalbert Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 nice one, Mid ! so you mean the Startup and Shutdown Logos are now changed with this? It will survive a reboot? also, is there an option for me not to install the included extra screens (like the WMP) and the included Sounds and Ringtone? Thanks...

Guest Crispy Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 dinoalbert : how would you EVER see a startup screen if it didnt survive a reboot ? It now does survive, check these install strings. No more tampering in the windows folder, Viva la registry! :) <characteristic type="HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftSplash Screen"> <parm name="CarrierBitmap" value="IPSMAI2startup2.gif" datatype="string" /> <parm name="CarrierShutdownBitmap" value="IPSMAI2shutdown2.gif" datatype="string" /> <parm name="CarrierShutdownTimeout" value="2000" datatype="integer" /> <parm name="MSBitmap" value="IPSMAI2startup1.gif" datatype="string" /> <parm name="MSShutdownBitmap" value="IPSMAI2shutdown1.gif" datatype="string" /> <parm name="MSShutdownTimeout" value="15000" datatype="integer" /> </characteristic> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest NeXur Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 Using aQtek 7070 (Tanager), the shutdown screen doesn't work. What versionnumber is it you need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest midnight Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 as far as i know it works on the mitac, it worked on my 1.3.5, but it appears not to work on some other builds, oh well, not a lot i can do about it, it either works, or it doesnt, there is nothing to fix, so dont complain about it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Star_Dudy Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 As far as i tested it, it works on my E100, rom 1.5Fr..... Good job, but too much tweaks and modifications :) I'm going back but thanks for the screens tweak :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest midnight Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 well, as with Alien Invention, this is really an experiment, all Alien Invention homescreens will be like this, not necessarily useable at first (they will be with the custom pc installers where you can choose what to install), and so whenever released in its first incarnation will be set to all my settings. I expect to do the custom versions of AI and AI2 next week, and so should be more useable for everyone. I am working on another homescreen, not an AI one, but will use several of the new tweaks, and will be chooseable in a pc installer :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
