All homescreen files should be copied to IPSM/Application Data/Home.

An xml file usually requires at least one image (for background), which should also be copied there.

So this will really work on my mpx200? Even though it has 2002, not 2003 (unless some kind soul could send me the mpx200 2003 rom to [email protected])??

[Guest drblow]

Certainly should do! :wink:

That's a self-installer package.

Connect to PC with ActiveSync and copy across to IPSM Windows Start Menu Accessories (last choice is optional).

Then with the phone, left soft-key Start (or Programs), go to the Accessories folder and you'll find an icon for the .hme file. Click it and it will install itself. :)

Also, you may well need to application unlock your phone first. Click here -> OTA <- yes it does work for the MPx200, choose SPV or E100 if there's a choice...

Have a read of the threads up here concerning WM2003 OS for the MPx200, because many have regretted doing it. The 2003 OS for the MPx200 is well dodgy from what I've read.

Freeware : have a look at www.monolithix.org and www.airfagev.com as well as here (and the "Friends" links on the home page.)
