Improved home screen

[Guest hardysmith]

I liked the "Orange Layout 1" as my home page, but there were three things that I wanted to change:

1. Add the date

2. Remove the News, Gallery, Sport and Downloads as I never used them

and finally

3. I wanted the icon bar at the top to be dynamic and to reflect the most recently used applications in the phone.

Anyway, if you are interested, you can download my XML here.

(Right click and choose "save target as" to download to your computer)

or

http://www.musicxp.net/clear2.home.xml

I believe that these are a big improvement over any of the supplied home screens.

Just copy the downloaded files to your IPSM/Application Data/Home directory and then go settings/homescreen and change to Clear Layout 1 or Clear Layout 2.

You can also download the XML here

This is the home screen I was looking for. Thanks for sharing hardy!

I love how the icons are always your most often used ones.

I had this problem. Are you running Internet Explorer 6 or something older? Apparently the bit rate in IE6 is safer from hackers etc... and also should fix your problem. It can be downloaded from the microsoft website, ;) It worked for me, good luck!

IE 4 or 5.0?) had a patch to whack the encryption rate up from 56bit to a full blown 128bit. It might just be a slow connection, or your PC is being a pain

Can you help I am having problems. I saved clear1.home to my pc desktop and then copy pasted the file into IPSM/application data/home. but nothing seems to be happening???? What have I done wrong???

You now need to go in to programs ->settings -> home screen and select the new Home screen layout....

WOW thanks a lot the first one is brillant just like something I was after it tells you all you need to know.

By the way this is the first homescreen I have actually managed to get working, keep up the good work
