Keeping The Windows Media Skin The Same?

[Guest Ste]

I have done the following twice

1.) Unlock your phone so that you can run un-certified applications. (The

method where you edit the XML files DOES WORK! [uK phones too] )

2.) Copy the Media Player skin (Attached) to a directory either under

"IPSM" or on your SD card. (For this example we will use "Storage CardMy

DocumentsmediaSkin")

3.) Install "PHM Registry Editor". (This can be found at

"http://www.phm.lu/Products/Smartphone/RegEdit/")

4.) Run PHM Registry Editor and goto " HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / Software /

Microsoft / Windows Media Player 8 / Parameters " and change the "SkinDir"

value so that it reflects where you placed the skin files. ("Storage

CardMy DocumentsmediaSkin" in our case)

i open the "SkinDir" value and where it says windows I insert the directory but when I go to open windows media player, windows media player flashes up at the top of the screen and then thats it. Nothing opens.

I have tried restarting the phone too.

Is there something else I have to do or change too?

Any help would be appreciated

I had this problem when I first tried changing the skin and it was because i'd entered the skin path without a final "", so WMP couldn't find it and therefore couldn't load. Make sure you enter the path without quotes and with a "" at the end of it, for example, I have

IPSMMPSkin

Also make sure all the skin files are in the correct folder; there should be 3 .gifs and a .skn file.
