How to change OperaMobile 10s speed dial thumbnails? - Windows Mobile Software Development

Hello,
Just a quick question I couldnt find an answer to on the board:
Im not particulary happy with the thumbnails of the spped dial that opera mobile 10 generates from websites. How can I replace them with better images, lets say a logo of the site which was made in photoshop?
--edit--
Ah I just found out the thumbnails are located in:
Opera Mobile 10/profile/datastorage/6/ and are called IMG0.dat
renaming them in IMG0.png lets you open them on the pc. Im trying now to replace the image with my own graphic and rename it back to IMG0.dat then put it back in the Opera folder on the phone.
--edit2--
So it turns out it really works like that, somewhat.
Although the new thumbnail gets cut off eventhough I used the same dimensions as the original.
I attached a screenshot of the original thumbnail, the new one and the image I created in Photoshop

Dear Fana7ic!
I'm using Opera Mobile 10.00 on my Nokia E66, but I can't find the IMG0.dat file anywhere on my phone. Could you help me please, where to look for it, ot how to change the thumbnails on the speed dial page?
Thank you!

Daumen hoch!
Thumb up!
Danke! Genau nach dieser Antwort habe ich gesucht...

I know how to bring up the smartoolkit one but I cant figure out how to select text with it, or what the last four icons mean?

search for vitocopypaste its the easiest program to use. when your cursor is next to text just hold down the select silver button (if you are using a dash the middle silver button inside the dpad) and a menu will pop up asking copy all? select all? cut all? things like that.
really useful program
Vito don't seem to have the program available on website but pre-release is available so here it is.
Just place the .exe on phone and run, you could place an .ink in the Windows\Start Menu if you want and to stop the program run the .exe again.
Still not sure what use it is as we have copy and paste included in WM6.1 for messaging? And it doesn't work with mini...

Well the copy paste built into wm sucks, most text fields dont even include an edit menu to use it. Does anyone know what the last few icons on the smartools copy and paste mean? Does either the smartools or mortscript copy paste progrrams support highlighting text not in a text box? like From a web page or a program like irc? How about vito?
Vito copy paste not working on my T-mobile Dash
Hi everyone,
I just installed what I think is the pre-release version of Vito Copy Paste on my T-Mobile Dash. I found the download here:
http://www.smartphone-freeware.com/download-vito-copy-paste.html
I got it from there because the vito link I saw on a couple of pages did not work. (Perhaps they got rid of the program, for some mysterious reason?)
Anyway - I am pretty certain I installed it correctly - downloaded to my computer, transferred the .exe file to my phone, and opened it. (I know it is opened because when I click on it again, it tells me the program is running.)
But the whole "hold down the silver central button and a menu will appear" - does not work for me. In whatever text field I am in, whether it is in Word or an e-mail, it just does whatever the silver button normally does, like enter a line or a space. This is also true for the subject and to line of an e-mail, which are not multi-line text fields.
Does anybody know what's wrong?? And how can I remedy this??
Could it be because it is a pre-release version, and thus perhaps not the "real" or up-to-date version?
And if this can be remedied, is there a way you can copy and paste from webpages i.e. not text fields? (I am assuming "text fields" means places where you can enter text?)
Thank you!

Background for all Tabs

Hi
I have a question.
I found a thread in which they put some files in to change all backgroounds in all tabs:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2869354&postcount=571
So I downladed the files and unzipped them on the PC.
I got 2 files:
5c9aa261_manila
4a087e41_manila
So I thought I had to copy them into the windows folder of the touch hd (am I right?). So I did. The file "4a087e41_manila" copies as it should, but when I try to copy the file "5c9aa261_manila" it says that it has to replace an already existing file. Then I click yes and it says thats not able to overwrite the file, cos its in use.
So does somebody know how to do that and if I am on the right way to install it? (didnt find a howto to install this backgroundmod )
Thanks in advance!

use total commander to copy and paste it then it will let you overwrite it or stop tf3d and use TC. it worked great for me but just an FYI, you have to mod the manilla file with a 256x256 pic or you will end up with a white backgroun on every tab instead of your pic

I made my own manila file and think it looks terrible with this. IT stretches the 256x256. Any chance odf using 512x512 or soemthing that doesnt have to be a perfect square?
You've probably worked this out for yourself by now, but i think the trick here is to pick an image that looks good at 800x480 and then use PSP or similar to squish it to 256x256. The HD seems to resize the image to something acceptable when it renders it.
Worked for me anyway. Having said that, the image quality isn't fabulous - decent but not spectacular - from what looked to be a good starting image, so maybe I'm doing something wrong - I'd expect a decent image on a screen like the HD's.
Any other suggestions from those that have already replaced backgrounds?
that is precisely what I am doing with the exact same result. In addition, it seems to position the image a hair to the left..... not sure why.
I reckon we're losing detail when the image is compressed and which the HD can't recover when it renders the image. There ought to be a way of sorting this out as there seem to be other examples of decent quality backgrounds on the forum. Maybe these are only home tsb backgrounds though?
Of the two files that change the background I reckon the one that starts with 5 is the one that tells HD what and how to display. If I knew how to edit this I reckon it the displacement issue could be sorted out and it might even be possible to use a bigger image. I'm poking around in the dark though.
work great for me !! tnx !!

Can somebody explain this to me?
Hi guys
I installed the two manila files "5c9aa261_manila" and "4a087e41_manila" (see attached in "manila files.zip") into the windows folder and then reactivated TF3D.
Then I say that the background changed well in all tabs. It seemed everything was all right til I saw this (picture attached). In the all programs list and the share portfoilo tab I see instead of a all white backgroud a dark bar in the upper half of the screen showing the background installed on all tabs.
Now I wanted to know how I could solve this. Hope someone could help me.
Thanks in advance!

I have the same problem. I've even hard reset the device and applied this tweak with the same result. Anyone else have a suggestion??
I have the same problem... and it didnt bug me before but it really bugs me now... it happens in all TF3D applications, all programs, Album etc.
Appreciate any advice on how to fix this.
Anyone.. perhaps the original author of the thread.. are we the only two people seeing this issue?
I do not have a solution to that, but what I have noticed quite often earlier on the HD (not sure if it was the case with the Diamond, as the Diamond backgrounds looked better) but whenever you set a background the NORMAL way (using the settings tab) then the background also becomes quite unsharp, indicating that the phone makes a snapshot of the image which is a lot smaller, and which then gets scaled back up when displayed on the home screen.
I don't know why manila does this, or why HTC decided to do this, perhaps to conserve memory but come on, an 800x480 image does not have to be big.
Wanna see what I mean, watch a razor sharp picture in album viewer then put it on your background, it will be unsharp, like it's a blown up very small image.
If anyone has any clue on how to change this, to be able to use sharp backgrounds, i'd be grateful.

Phoneblock and more Tabs Opera mobile

Hi there, I'm very happy with my HTC pro2! It's a very cool device. But there are a few little things I want to adjust. The first thing I'm not happy with is the digital phonepath when I want to text/sms. It's a bit small. Last week I've seen the digital phonepath on the HTC Touch HD and that's much more basic and therefor much more easier to handle when texting/ smsing (at first sight).
The second thing I regret is that opera mobile only has two tabs.. I borrowed a Samsung Omnia a few weeks ago and on that device I could use three of more tabs.
Does anybody know how to chage / adjust this thing on the Pro2?
Oh, I've got a Dutch version of the Rhodium.
To adjust tab count in Opera, in the Opera address bar type opera:config
Once in the configuration editor, scroll down to 'User Prefs', expand it, and look for 'Maximum Allowed Tabs'. Change the number as required. Reboot browser, or reboot phone if Opera's stuck in memory and you don't know how to kill it.
Thanks a lot!! But I tried and I tried, but when I change 'Maximum Allowed Tabs' in another number and saved it, it will not take effect. I rebooted the browser and also the device, but it won't work...
When I reboot the Browser and then check opera:config, it shows my adjustment in 'Maximum Allowed Tabs' (from 2 to 5 tabs), but it still doesn't work...
Anyone?
UPDATE: I did it! I changed the opera.ini file.
DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO CHANGE THE DIGITAL PHONEPAD OF THE PRO2 TO THE THE DIGITAL PHONEPAD OF THE TOUCH HD??
Indeed. just change the opera.ini file
simplest way.
copy with pc from ppc \windows\opera\opera.ini to pc
change with any editor and copy back
max i found is 17
then cache runs out?!

Hi sorry if this is a silly question but where do i find this Opera.ini file and how do i "edit" it?

Just read the message of Vinciente.... Then you know where the file is
Opera
Can you go somewhere in a registry editor to change this info, instead of copying to your pc?

[Q] Managing your apps

Hello every1,
since i'm used to often change my roms on my hd, i'm searching for a programm or whatever that is able to save and store apps. You might think about androidpit and that's already a really nice website, but unfortanetly not 100% what i'm looking for.
I wanna have kinda a database für my own to save, manage and restore apps doesn't matter if online, offline or in form of an app.
I hope i could express my "problem" clearly and hopefully there'll be some help
greetz

there are softwares.they make all in folder then just place folder back and no need to install all, they just appear in menu and ready to use,
correct me if i am wrong, i need to learn

[Q] bada app developement in xda?

Hello there,
i am a app developer and wont to post a Topic for a community project? the one app is i think a little bit here known, it's name is BadaSI maybe someone know it,
the source code of this app is free to all developers, only the whole programm shouldn't be reconstructet, the images of the app are from an designer and he don't wont that someone use them.
The second app is voluntas and is currently at developement. It is usefull for developers to have such a topic for an app and have a better and faster way to fix bugs, cause the users can post every time things that are not going very well.
i have made some mistakes as Moderater there and decided to leave this site, and a friend of mine has said this would be a good one.
Is it possible or not?
it is possible of course
welcome my friend to XDA-developers
there is a plenty of testers right here will help you with your app and i am the first one
count me on your journey
waiting for others to welcome our new developer
BTW what was your mistake please??
I had a wrong going disussion with a user on badanation.de, and at least i decided to punish myself from there, it was easy becouse i was a moderator also there and in the dev-team one of the leaders, adfree has brought me here, he showed me the forum since the release of badaSI and made a Topic for the App. I have written many bad things and a moderator should be more friendly. It hadn't any sense to stay there.
This Forum is nice and I hope we will make some usefull apps for the whole community.
I must wait for 10 posts that i can add my Topics then in the developement section.
I am happy that i found a new forum and can start my line only as developer.
Yes. I hope that more users develop bada Apps.
As we can see Themes now very often in Store... much more then Games.
It's time to change this.
Best Regards
adfree also wirklich erst verabschieden dann begrüßen
we will i think get a nice time here. erzähl drüben nicht wo ich jetzt bin, hat seine gründe.
welcome aboard mate
good developers are never too many
im tired of looking at samsung new apps, and find only themes (most of them rubbish and overpriced i must say), app links to newspapers, calendars and task managers that bring nothing new, bibles, clocks (ive seen simple clocks priced at 4 or 5 euros...come on... a simple clock...wtf is that?)
really good and useful apps are still scarce or too expensive (at least compared to android and apple appstore)
with a good developers base i can foresee some good ideas taking shape as apps, or even "porting" good apps from other systems
my 2 cents
Welcome my friend. O must say that your badasi app is really good. For those who don't know about their wave, it gives a lot of information. May I ask what your second app is and what it does? Also is it possible that you could make an ebook reader (which could at-least support .epub format) for bada? That's one big thing that bada badly misses. Please don't think I am pressurizing you. If you can't no worries. Just asking....
Second App is a browser named "Voluntas".
More from larioteo to fill his 10 posts soon.
Auch von mir herzlich willkommen bei XDA. Freu mich schon
auf neue Versionen. Ich blick zwar nicht durch was bei BN passiert
ist aber ich muß es auch nicht wissen. Haupsache man

voluntas
hi there,
glad that voluntas project goes on! and thx for PM with link here.
and one question about badaSI - how should i understand the RAM part?
i see:
app limit 57MB
app used 7MB
app free 50MB
where is the rest of RAM? did you find out how much RAM does wave actually have? still not sure about that. no information to google some say 256MB some 512, did u make any progress with this?
welcome mate.. i am already using ur Voluntas browser and its awesome much better than pretty useless dofin 2.2 which lacks fullscreen.. only a few improvements and it will be the BEST
btw previously you promised to explain how to remove voluntas better than clicking minus in menu, so we can find out, if the problem with app crashing will remain..
Yes, let us combine what is different to others, !?
The problemed happened to some peaple not to everybody and with the new installer, what language are you using?
have you the old batch script from me? we could test it with it, i removed it from my hd, and don't remember anymore how i did it
BadaSI RAM:
The App Limit shows the max Value the App cans allocate after starting, this value depends on the Amount of System RAM, a App normaly becomes 73 - 74 MB for its own. When the RAM is fragmented the App becomes less RAM.
This mean if the App Limit are much lower or below 50 MB you will get a lot RAM errors while surfing with Dolfin or trying to start a big game.
It is an indicator when the System RAM is to much fragmented and than it is time to restart the Phone.
I hope i could explain it right in enlish as i am trying
I´ve got it here...if it´s useful?
We will see but i think yes thank you very much, could you try it kazelos? you must only use the y9... folder and replace it with the Voluntas folder in App from te_chnix postet.
It could be that by you the other Installer don't copies a file, it is based on .Net Framework, and a such error could everything be.
Here is the link to the Voluntas Development Topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1088900
The other from badaSI will come soon, i am working on it, a little problem is my english is a little bit rusted trought the time
so, i didnt understand well probably. i downloaded his folder, connected thru stune, deleted all files there and copied from that downloaded folder. but voluntas now doesnt work. some files are different, so it wasnt simple replacement. i will send you a link to pm with my voluntas folder for you to look at it. i dont know if there are some passwords saved or something, so i hope you are discrete. after you download it, i will erase it from server.
here a fixed version for you with the old installer, if it works for you i will add it to the voluntas topic
Na wer hätte das denn gedacht ;-)
Na Tom Hallo, die Welt scheint wirklich ein Dorf zu seien
Nice to see old friends here.
