HTC Album - Fixed Screen Resolution for i900

I was getting annoyed with the menu floating in the middle of my i900 so I fixed the screen resolution to fit properly.

For those who already have the HTC Album installed into Your Device:

1. Close HTC Album in your device.

2. Download HTC_Album_Omnia_Files.zip

3. Extract and replace all files in HTC_Album_Omnia_Files.zip into \Windows

4. Delete ha_skin_cache_l.dat and ha_skin_cache_p.dat in \Windows

5. Launch HTC Album. (no need for soft reset)

The eye candy on this is excellent, but I only had 3.96mb left of memory so no good :lol:

I have 25mb free and you can definately get near 30mb if you tweak.

1. Go to Start > Settings > Today > Items, disable TouchFLO.

2. Go to your device \Windows and copy HTCHomeSettings.xml to your PC.

3. Open HTCHomeSettings.xml in your PC and replace these lines.

4. Save and copy HTCHomeSettings.xml back to your device \Windows.

5. Go to Start > Settings > Today > Items, enable TouchFLO.

Okay.. I have read all the pages in the thread, but must have got confused. What do I need to install and what can go in my storage. I will try again and see what the difference is.

If you use the customiser does this need to be in main memory?

Try this file I have edited but take note that this is the default file from robf80

Thankyou, worked it out already though :lol:

I managed to change the Calendar (on Home Tab) shortcut to execute ThumbCal.

1. Download VJBrisk app XDA Dev post #7.

2. Rename VJBrisk to Calendar.exe and the shortcut to your PIM app to (eg. ThumbCal.lnk) to VJTarget.lnk.

3. Place these two files into \Windows folder.

I dont really understood how u did it. :S

Can u please explain better? ;)

I have downloaded VJBrisk.cab and installed it on My Storage, also ThumbCal.

Then renamed the VBrisk to Calendar.exe which is located in "Program Files".

shortcut to your PIM app to (eg. ThumbCal.lnk) to VJTarget.lnk.

What is PIM app? I didnt understand what to do here. :D

Thanks

PIM just means Person Information Management or something (basically its a generic word for your calendar app). Since you are using ThumbCal you need to:

- Copy the calendar.exe file (the renamed copy of VBrisk) to \Windows overwriting the system one (you will need something like Resco File Explorer to be able to do that as it is a ROM component)

- Copy ThumbCal.lnk from \windows\start menu to \windows and rename it VJTarget.lnk

- Do a soft reset (I had to do this for it to take effect)

I would be all over this like a fly on sh*t if it were made to work in landscape mode.

What does the screen look like when you flip it to landscape? Could anybody post a screenshot? (Just wondering how ugly it is)

Has anybody looked into the apps referred to in this thread about Manila on the Diamond?

You need to have Resco Explorer with Registry editor add-in installed.

Then go to the My Registry HKLM->Software->HTC->Manilla 2D->InternetWidget->Customized

change there BannerURL to www.google.com and BannerURLTEXT if u want to OPERA 9.5.

I dont know how to add more bookmarks.

Thanks, I also worked out how to add more:

In 'Customized' there is a DWORD called CustmizedCount set to 1. Change that to the number of bookmarks you want to appear under the internet tab.

You will see a key (folder) called 0, create another called 1 (and then 2, 3 etc for how many you want) and copy the conents of 0 into each of them. Then you can go into them and edit the icon, title and url. I used the HH_INTERNET_ITEM_ICON for them.

Thanks robf80 and kaer!!!!!!

Because of your fine and easy guides I installed and fixxed (some) Manila.

This theme is awesome. It works pretty good and after trying SpB shell and Winterface, this one looks tight and is easy to use.

I still have to fix my Comm manager, so I'll be needing a reg edit..wich shouldnt be that much of a problem ;P

Just one question. Is it possible to lock/password protect your Mail ánd SMS tabs? or even delete them from the widget bar?

I dont like how it is easy accesable.

Thanks a bunch!
