Guest markhammill Posted October 18, 2004 Report Posted October 18, 2004 File Name :: Alienware Author :: markhammill Category :: Other Description :: Features Skinned Iconbar and C500 plugin. Full version also includes missed call screen and new message screen. Extra screens are slightly temperamental due to C500 plugin. Comments ZIP includes CAB file and two *.bmh files which need to be copied to the /Storage/Application Data/Home directory and don't need to be replaced after restarts so they will be included in the CAB in the next release.

Guest bauer Posted October 18, 2004 Report Posted October 18, 2004 Hi, Just wondering whether a c500 homescreen like the one above would work on a spv e200. Thanks inadvance
Guest markhammill Posted October 18, 2004 Report Posted October 18, 2004 I'm afraid not it needs a plugin that is only available on the C500
Guest BrAGoL Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 just saw this thread... ^_^ really cool homescreen! :D Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest vs1979 Posted October 21, 2004 Report Posted October 21, 2004 Can anyone explain why when I receive a message or missed call, the screens are off centre. I can press up and down and the screen becomes garbled. This is the only Homescreen that I have had that does this. Even after having applied the new Update for the C500, causing a full reset, it still occurs. Is there anything wrong or do I need to set something? Cheers
Guest markhammill Posted October 21, 2004 Report Posted October 21, 2004 Hi vs1979, I'm afraid it is due to the C500 plugin. Instead of the extra screens covering the menu they are displayed above it. Which means you can scroll down making it look naff. It should show the right screen first if the keypad is locked, but it is a bit temperamental. I would suggest the Lite version as it has the two problematic screens removed.
Guest vs1979 Posted October 21, 2004 Report Posted October 21, 2004 So does that mean it occurs for everyone? I thought there were other C500 plugin Homescreen mods that worked without this problem. Maybe I'm just wrong. Have to say though that I do love the overall look of this. (I actually use the alienware theme for the PC - sad I know - but it looks good)
Guest markhammill Posted October 22, 2004 Report Posted October 22, 2004 I know Crafty's C500 Mac theme has the same problems. I based my skin on it. I'm still using the Alienware windows theme myself :oops:
Guest BrAGoL Posted October 31, 2004 Report Posted October 31, 2004 what do you mean it does'nt work? please post here the error you've encountered... Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest markhammill Posted November 4, 2004 Report Posted November 4, 2004 If anyone would prefer an iconbar without a no mail icon, simply replace the one on your phone with this oneIconbar.zip
Guest Yoko Posted November 5, 2004 Report Posted November 5, 2004 Taking the risk and asking a potentially dump question: Is there any chance or known way to have that orange c500 plugin (and hence the wonderful theme) on the T-Mobile SDA? Thanks in advance, Yoko
Guest markhammill Posted November 5, 2004 Report Posted November 5, 2004 None way that I know of I'm afraid. Unless some one can make a similar plugin at some stage.
Guest Yoko Posted November 5, 2004 Report Posted November 5, 2004 Tanks for the (sad) info, markhammill. I already expected that info, but was hoping... That sidebar style orange thing looks great and the c500 has a strong community, so I was curious. Thanks again, Yoko
Guest The Undefeated Posted November 15, 2004 Report Posted November 15, 2004 Hey hey, funky, think i'll download this one too.
Guest RichieRich Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 Hey Mark, Was gonna ask the same question as Bauer, coz this would just rock on my e200, as I've got the full skin already on my PC!!!! Please, in fact pretty please, could you do one for us....PLEASE!!!!!!!!! (With sugar on top!! :wink: ) RR
Guest markhammill Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 I'm afraid it takes a lot more skill to do an E200 skin with icons then a C500 skin. Which I haven't got. I have given a couple of people the images I used so they can give it a go, but I haven't seen anything yet. If anyone else wants a go, let me know and I'll PM you what I've got.
Guest markhammill Posted December 18, 2004 Report Posted December 18, 2004 Wow, If the bmh files are copies into the storage/application date/home folder instead, they survive reboots. Anyone want to update my cab files :wink:
Guest markon Posted January 2, 2005 Report Posted January 2, 2005 Damn man this is finer. A startup and shutdown screen with this will make the screen a nominee for best screen of O five. Well in my book at least :)
Guest markhammill Posted January 3, 2005 Report Posted January 3, 2005 got pic of the screen? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Fixed it, there's a screenshot there now :)
Guest Skunkchild Posted January 21, 2005 Report Posted January 21, 2005 (edited) Excellent skin ! Just got my C500 today so this was great to find, many thanks. Do you have any links or more info on how to customise the c500 plugin ? Edited January 22, 2005 by Skunkchild
