Hey Vjaayyyyyyyy The new rom has a gap in the bottom of the connection manager. Do you know of anyway to overcome this?

Getting the same problem
How annoying
Hmm, haven't looked into it yet. I've not touched the new ROM yet, but my Universal rom is so screwed due to the stuff I do to it, I think it's time for a refresh. what rom are you using?
On the Phone Dialer, all we needed to do was copy in two bitmaps to replace the originals. Send me over a copy of the manager, or otherwise point me to the rom, and I'll see if I can do similar. At least this one is more VGA compatible then the last few. Try resource hacking it to see if it corrects it.
BTW - Sctojen - I notice you've still got the vertically offset (ie incorrect) titlebar text. Have you tried changing the font or playing with your window metrics (try CETuner to play with this stuff). I'm using a font called VJNina, posted somewhere or other on the board.

Vijay the following is the test imate rom I am using. Everything else rendering wise is fine.
i-Mate JasJar (PU10) Rom 1.30.68 WWE
Radio 1.09.00
Protocol 42.42.P8
Vj.
Not to sure what you mean by the horizontal text. Am Guessing from what i could make out do you use VJninja as like a system font. If so i will do a search and give it a try.
Also i notice in your screen shot you have got a nice looking battery bar sitting at the top of your screen where did you get this from.
Unfortunatly the new imate test rom comes with battery icon below (couldn't really get a good screen shot as it was in charging mode but with yours i notice you get several little bars with the 1 in the new imate rom the icon has just 2 big bars full and half full yours looks a little bit mor accurate. i would like to find out how to remove the one on mine and give yours a try.
Many thanks for all your help mate.

scotjen1: the vertical offset of your caption - in your screenshot, "Start" is touching the top of the caption bar. In mine, it's in the middle where it should be. This can be fixed, someone asked me once how I did it, I can't remember, but basically I use VJNina as my system font and CETuner to fix my "metrics". Have a look in the VGA thread for details (I think). But that's just cosmetic.
Battery bar - no idea. I thought it was built in. I'm not running much 3rd party stuff on my universal, since I only use it for development. I don't think I ran the extended rom cabs, so again, I'm not sure. I'll have to upgrade to the new rom soon and start playing. I haven't had time to look into any of it yet Busy weekend coding...

I think your battery bar is from SmallMenu/Plus (I think you told me once that you used this?). You can turn it on/off in the SmallMenu settings. (well - it certainly looks like the smallmenu battery indicator!)
man, do I have egg on my face.
Riceburner is correct, that's the battery icon from SmallMenu. You know, I never noticed? I use smallmenu on my Magician, which is my day to day phone, but I disable the battery icon because I use my VJToggleToday/PhoneAlarm hack instead. My universal hasn't been modded much at all yet by me, so I must have just left the icon on and not noticed. It's useful though.

For those interested, here's a link to the Nina font,

and VJNina, a cut down version 1/2 of the size, but removing certain rarely used (by me) international characters.

VJ, i guess its got nothing to do with the font. I had the start caption at an offset when i used to use OZvga to make the reg changes. I guess ozvga messes with some unwanted reg setting screwing it up....
However, if you copy the corresponding dlls (with 96dpi), and change the LogicalPixels reg values, the caption is center alligned!
Cheers,

Does anyone have the problem I have with the new rom, the new battery icon up on top bar still says its plugged into power when you unplug it from the computer, if I reset it it fixes it. Does anyone know how to fix this.
dreamtheater39: I'm sure it's not just the font, no reason why it would be. But I monkey around with various metrics, scrollbar size etc, as soon as I change resolution. So it's one of those. Not sure which, I just always play with a few by default... seems to correct the problem itself.
I just use VJNina because I find it a neater font then Tahoma at those resolutions. It's a hangover from my SPV days.

I have this problem too. Only when using Real VGA though, so my guess is that it's a problem with a slightly incompatible 96 dpi .dll file? (Of course, I don't really know what I'm talking about here, so feel free to expose my ignorance, everybody! )

The issue is with the system font size. For some reason, if you try to increase the size of the system font on WM5 it leaves the font at the same size, but raises it up. By default OzVGA tries to increase the size of all of the fonts when you switch to VGA mode. If you want to continue to use OzVGA and you don't want to deal with this, just go into the settings and change the System Font size for VGA mode to 900.

Hi, i am also getting this problem, I ahve patched with other utilities. Except this one.
Any one please suggest the changes to be done. Cheers
Hi everybody,
I want to use a picture as wallpaper in my Qtek 9000..
But there is a problem: the lines between the Today plugins!!
I solved DEACTIVATING all today plugin!!
But i can't belive that i can't ERASE that damned lines!
Well: i tryed Wisbar Advanced desktop... but it slows the PPC..
I would write to Microsoft.. Because i HATE that lines..
I could use Pocket Plus.. But seems it crashes PDA..
Can you suggest me something similar.. Maybe freeware..
Please help me..
Bump and ditto, easy solution?
I too would like to know how to get rid of those stupid lines, it just makes any background image look crap.
I have managed to edit the Tomtom logo and made it smaller so it takes up less space but the annoying lines have to go.
If anyone out there knows a solution it would be greatly appriciated.
how did u edit the tomtom logo?
You could try changing the colour of the lines. Google for Tweaks2k2 and you should find a great tool you can download and use 3 times before needing to purchase it. BTW, the tool does a lot more than give you the ability to change the colour of the lines. This is a must-have app.
I can't belive that the only solution is to change the line's color!
I want to see the picture of my girlfriend WITHOUT that UGLY and STUPID lines!
No other phone in the world doesn't show a full picture!
I think that the solution is to write to Microsoft.. I can't belive it.. But there is no other solution!
They have to chang Today.. It's too old.. Based on old Pocket PC (In portrait)..
Maybe i posted in a wrong room?
on a old jornada I had I recall an app that had this as an option, so its possible, there must be a way to do it, maybe just replacing the image used for the lines with a blank one?, Im no coder or anything like that, just throwing out an idea, this is a developer forum, maybe someone could throw together a quick and dirty hack or maybe a reg hack, somebody help us out, I hate those lines too.

This issue has come up in several threads. The only way I know to "get rid of" them is to change the color to match the background by using a Theme Generator program.
I found links to the SHMetrics value in the SHELL32.EXE code of wm2003se. It is all done by COMMCTRL.DLL and te lines are called TodayLVItemLine2 and TodayLVItemLine1. But this is very undocumented. The problem is that you need to reboot every time you change something in the SHMetrics value.
See this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44154
I am still fiddling around with various values of this SHMetrics value. Problem is that I realy don't know what the effect is on what GUI element.
Perhaps one day...
Cheers
Im running wisbar advance 2 and I average 2-8% cpu (overclocked to 264) with it running but I dont see a setting to remove the lines, correct me if Im wrong...
I wish wisbar had different edge/gprs icon support, edge is spotty in many areas I frequent, so I trey to dl when im in an edge supporting cell...even if it just showed the actual icon like "notifications"

to change the colour of the tomtom sign just go to paint and zoom in and change the colour to your desire. i have made mine deep red. and to change the size go into photoshop and change the image size to a smaller size.
Once you have the one you want just go to the tomtom folder that should be on the root of your device and replace the file ttoday.bmp with the one you have. You might want to back up the original ttoday.bmp file just in case.
Once replace you don't even need to soft-reset. just go into settings-today and check to see if tomtom is selected to appear on your today screen. once you tap on the tick in the corner your picture will be updated.
Il try to attach the ones i have done but this is my first time attaching an image so it might not work.
As for the crappy lines on the screen.....Is there not a way just to make the lines invisible???

I' ve my artemis since early December, I've tested lots of software products and I'm very satisfied with the device response. Something annoying for me is the fact that the fonts size of phone window is very small, they almost unreadable (number and contact name).
Do anyone knows a way to get them bigger?
Thank a lot and regards
start>settings>system>screen>text size
should help you out. just tried the smallest size and your right its unreadable
Doesn't works in phone window...

Thanks for replying, but in phone window font size this doesn't have impact.
Perhaps a registry tweak..
Thanks anyway
Does anyone know how to change font size? I can't seem to figure it out or find an answer.
Not Sure If It's The Same With Windows But Try A App Called Spare Parts!!

in the 7 weeks i've used my Mozart, i have not found a way to change the font size, except for zoom-in and -out with email, web pages, etc. i would really like to increase the font size of the text message app. its one of the few frustrating things i don't like with WP7.
aslo here very frustrating that you can't change the font size
I would presume, currently, it is not possible. The UI has been locked down a lot to provide the same polished user experience to all users, allowing users to change the font size could result in a few quirks with the UI, i.e. text not fitting correctly.
Hi guys,
I´ve been doing some tests with Simple Text but when the text is to big the words get cut or I have to make the fonts so small that I cannot read them properly. What other similar apps are there that would maybe allow me to make the icon size bigger?
Not sure I totally understand what you mean but maybe this app would help?

Then again, probably not...
Thanks, bro. I´m going to give it a go anyway. It´s always fun to try out new apps.
This one would actually work if it didn´t create such large icons...I think I´ll just create some on photoshop.
How about this?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DMsImpwLmNvLmJpaS5hbmRyb2lkLmFwcC5kc2t2enIiXQ..
I've not really started using it properly due to time so not sure if it will help but it does have loads of different sizes.
Still could not find an app for this that I liked. I think the best way so far is to create an invisible background on photoshop and the set it as default for all icons...this way only the labels remain visible.
