How to assign programs in homescreen?

[Guest dony_nevada]

Folks, i have a question here. Hope all the masters can show me the way.. :)

I know that you can change your phone profile just by clicking at text or image in the main screen because you already specify the plugin for that right? Now, how can i open internet explorer (or windows media player, File manager) with just one click at the main screen?

Anybody know the plugin code?

Thanks a lot!

The quickest way is by adding a speed dial. For the windows media player you can actually download a plugin (there is a link to somewhere in the forums) and then edit your homescreen XML file to include that plugin (very handy indeed).

If you have an e200 then you could use homescreen shortcuts to access ANY app you want. Have a look at this theme ... click it

If you have an e200 then you could use homescreen shortcuts to access ANY app you want.  Have a look at this theme ... click it

and if you need to you can send keys to that application so it carries out a task. e.g. Send/ Receive Email

Its a great work around for the email polling issue that people face on the E200 as it makes it a one click action to check for new mail.
