Chris - next time go ahead and add a reply to the first--other--thread you started on this topic. :D

I would guess that the "Get More" can be removed pretty easily through some XML editing of that Homescreen.

Opps...and, the Samsung Download site has a patch that will fix the calendar. http://www.samsung.com/us/support/download...II%20(SGH-i617)

What would be the best way of going in and editing the XML in the homescreen?

Sync with your device, transfer that Homescreen's XML file to your PC (the XMLs are in: \Device\Application Data\Home). Make a back-up and stick it in a different folder. Open the file with Notepad (etc) and then look for something that says something like <--Carrier Plugin-->....below that you should also see "T-Mobile," "Get Some," and some formatting for the time and date. If it's as I visualize, there should be "Get More" somewhere between the lines for the time/date and the "T-Mobile" Carrier. I think all you should need to do is delete the "Get More" text (and "T-Mobile" if you don't want to see that, either). Save the file, but when doing this, take off the ".TXT" that will put itself at the end. So, you'll have NameofHomescreen.XML (no .TXT at the end!) Then, simply transfer that back to your device and reapply that Homescreen. Before doing this, though, switch to a different Homescreen on your device, then apply your newly changed Homescreen after you transfer it back to your phone.

It shouldn't be hard, but if your concerned, don't do it - or, be sure you back up that file somewhere else before you edit it! If it comes down to it, we may be able to edit that XML for you...

I am comfortable with changing the XML but I can't find the Get more anywhere in any template....Is this code before the carrier thing it?...

That's just the Samsung Calendar Homescreen, right? It doesn't like you have added any Homescreen plugins to your device?

Here's the whole XML code for the Samsung Calendar that's from my device. Paste it into a new Notepad file, name it "Samsung Calendar2.home.XML" and try it on your device even though the code looks about the same. Maybe it's a T-Mobile SIM thing?

It is looking like a SIM card thing...My temporary solution was to change the font size to -3. It worked and this is what it looks like. But for a cleaner look, is it possible to take out the SIM information all together?

Screenshot attatched....

BTW...THANKS FOR YOUR HELP MAN YOUR THE ISH!!!

My calender is off a day as well on my phone. Thanks jeepincalifornia for the website to download the patch. That will be good to get it fixed.

[Guest JeepinCalifornia]

(lol at that screen shot)

Size -3 font will work!

[Guest JeepinCalifornia]

I tried deleting the entire line and the big ATT was replaced with a little one just above the time...who knows what it'll do with your T-Mobile setup?
