Hi, I know nothing about homescreens etc but I am trying to make my own at the moment, yours looks great and I'd be happy to test it, unfortunately thats about all I'm capable of doing.

I haven't made any homescreens myself but hopefully this might help you for two of the questions.

1 You could try a smartphone program called SmartSS

3. OCPSoftware's WinCE CAB Manager (found from one of Pzee's earlier replies)

Also see this topic in the FAQ section for creating cabs.

you can do all the things you asked with Ruttensofts homescreen designer. It'll do start stop screens Menu screens all the alerts ones and even change the operator logos within the incall screen.

Do you have PHM Registry Editor?

Check the following keys:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen\CarrierBitmap

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen\CarrierShutdownBitmap

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen\MSBitmap

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen\MSShutdownBitmap

These should be the path to your startup / shutdown images

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen\CarrierShutdownTimeout

Should be 2000.

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen\MSShutdownTimeout

Should be 15000.
