Hey,
I want to disable the function to change the today background.
You find it --> Start -> Settings --> Today -> Use this picture...
I want to disable the text AND the Button "Find" - so that the customers cannot change the logo.
I don't find the right key in the registry.
I use Windows Mobile 6 with the latest HTC Flash.
Who can help me?
Thanks and best regards from Germany.

No ideas?
because i've got two other problems.
1.) I want to delete the entries in the list of installed programs. So that the user cannot delete the program. Is it possible? Or can I protect it with password?
2.) We created a background logo, at the bottom it is white.
When the menu has got more than 5 entries you can not read the menu well.
Because white font over white background.
Is it possible to restrict the entries of last used applications to X entries ?
Even if there IS a way to do these things...
...it's quite evident, even from the site on which you're posting, that you will not be able to lock down such changes. Anyone who is so motivated will be able to get past anything you do, simply by flashing a new ROM, if not by other means, dontchathink?
-pvs
simple answer, you cant.
Actually, it would be semi-possible. Jasjamming had a bug in an early Black edition where he baked in his background rather than had it running in the initial setup. End result was you could change your background in the menus but it couldn't change what you saw as the backdrop files were marked as "ROM" so couldn't be changed.
The only way to install a program without it showing in the Remove Programs list is to bake it into your custom ROM installed on the phone.
However, when you've gone to the time & effort of making this ROM that cannot be customised, what's going to stop someone using a ROM from this site instead of yours, or using the tools here to modify your ROM and remove out the bits you've tried to lock down?
My advice? Don't try to lock anything down on your phone! The beauty of Windows Mobile it's ability to be improved & personalised. Let it run free!
Hi,
the problem with the list of installed programs isn't a problem anymore
I made a ROM with the ROM Kitchen und put the cab File into the ROM.
My first solution was to delete the uninstaller from the CAB with WinCE CAB Manager. But i want also to change the colors of the menu and things like that, so i made an own ROM.
So, you are right, the users could use programs from here, but, we want to "brand" the phone with our company logo, because the users should be awake that the phone is a COMPANY Phone and not a private toy
So now my last two problem are, that our company logo at the bottom is on a white ground and the menu has got a white font color. So i want to change the number of menu items or i want to change the color.
Does anybody knows the concerning files for the colors in the ROM?
The second is to disable the possibility to change the wallpaper.
It would be great if someone could tell me which files i have to change.
Thanks a lot and best wishes from Germany

The problem with the start menu i solved with Tweak UI.
But the problem with the possibility to change the background is still existing.
Where i have to look? In the registry? In the files?
Its only a windows, it must be possible to change this option...
Finally found the post I was remembering where someone had accidentally set a theme permanently.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1252607&postcount=276
The theme was usually set during the initial customisation following the first boot up, but in this case JasJamming had tried to save this step by baking it into the ROM - with the result that you couldn't change theme. Sorry I can't give you any more info on how it happened (don't know!) but JJ or someone else on here with a bigger brain than me should be able to help.
Hey Stu,
thanks for your answer.
But i have allready only one theme. The problem is that the users can change the 'today-background' easily. Our company logo wouldnt be on the background.
I think this is a forum with a lot of pros! But the right one has to find my thread, please
That's exactly what I'm talking about. Use your theme on a phone, copy out the stwater and tdywater files,then cook these into your ROM and flash onto the phone. As the stwater and tdywater files are set as "ROM" the today-background changer won't be allowed to over-write them so the user will not actually be able to change the background - hence your company logo will always be there.
Good luck, and don't forget to change the start-up screens too - maybe a nice portrait shot of the Managing Director?

Hey thanks a lot for the heads up! I just had a question... Can we really change the intro animation..? I mean completely replace it..? Or is that not possible??
Reply soon....
Hi all, I find the file /User/OspSys/LifeLog/Database/lifelog.db.
It's SQLite (view by sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net )
There are many information, calls, deleted messages (but only 100 chars).
I hope, it's information isn't send anywhere, because my wave is trying to connect once a day (it's maybe one of the widget)

hi, today I just gave a quick look to all files, but I think it's possible, in PowerOnOff.ini there are clear bindings to two .swf files and a startup / shutdown .wav sound contained in the resource path Phone:/SystemFS/PowerOnOff not sure, need to watch those files, I'll verify in next days..

Yes, you can change this too in Trix but in fact nothing change. Exp. you can't change "volume level" (exp. in MediaPlayer there is limit to 14 steps, if you change that to 15 steps and add one more <spklevel> and <earlevel>-so that there will be 15 steps, but nothing change in Wave, you can still able go to max. 14 steps in MediaPlayer) and you can't change that may mp3 playing miusic lauder as well as playing video, even if you copy and paste settings from VideoPlayer to MediaPlayer (only test that on speaker not on headphones).
In Registry\MainMenu_reg.ini you can remove any icons from the main menu (except SamsungApps). The file format is clear, I will note only that the system items will have MenuType=0, custom user applications - MenuType=1, SamsungApps - MenuType=2.
And, of course, make a backup before any manipulations with MainMenu_reg.ini
to be clear
adfree had made all those expermintes before & we already know these things
if there is something new please post it

Unfortunately I have not found anything like that using tkFileExplorer...
Assuming that replacing original browser it's difficult to do, source code is available (http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/reception_main.do?method=reception_list&menu_item=mobile thanks to sabianadmin) but the browser seems deeply integrated in the os files (also notice that Samsung Dolfin is not the open source browser Dolphin..): is there anyone who found in filesystem files the textures used by the browser GUI? if aren't cripted it will be possibile to change them for having a more usable GUI on our little screen (I'm thinking of upper/lower bars..)

I think the browser user interface might be in the file called BrowserAppControl.so which can be found in the SystemFS>Osp folder. All files in that folder are in .so formats. But they are RSA 1024bit signed. And they are not like other settings in phones which are written in html or xml. These files are similar to the .dll files on Windows. .so files are Linux format files.
Is there anyway to modify an *.ini file to enable "Noise Reduction" to always be on during calls?

i got the same error
im running the latest firmware s8530DXKB1/s8530OLBKB1
you have to specify the port you are using for connection from settings
in Phone:/SystemFS/Driver/CameraCaps/DevCamDeviceCapsNConfig_Primary.xml
you can change max ISO and max resolution parameters for phone camera, so you can set iso1600 or 8mp for photos, probably it is useless but it's still a hack
thanks to: http://www.badaitalia.com/2011/06/13/fotografie-con-poca-luce-a-iso-1600/
(on Bada 1.0.2 this system folder is missing so it's not possible..)
Yeah, I read it. Tonight I'll try and I'll let you know.
Hi all!
Well the thing is this: I successfully changed the background image on the menus editing framework-res ... but I have a little problem with the alarm list. (the images below)
What I did was edit styles.xml in the values folder, changing:
"<item name="colorBackground">@color/background_dark</item>" to
"<item name="colorBackground">@color/transparent</item>"
and
"<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/screen_background_dark</item>" to
"<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/screen_background_dark_transparent</item>".
does anyone know how to fix it?
Thanks in advance.
you mean the menu bckgrnd[app drawer] like in go launcher???
It happened for lovetz's themes too when he changed the backgrounds. Don't know the reasons but there're apps in the market completely similar to stock clock.. workaround for now?
is there any way to do it? the anoying T-mobile text is just there and taking up my notifications bar, and my lockscreen id like to change it to mabey something cool,ive tried the carrier name change APP, tried to find the eri xml but no luck, if it has to result in recompiling the framework,res.apk has anyone successfully done it?
This is so in the wrong forum , can a mod please move this to Genera l ? (bubal I know that you're looking for an appearance mod but changing framework definitely goes beyond this forum grouping )
