Phone call / Contact picture Bigger??

Hey,
You know when youre on the phone or the call is incoming you see a photo selected for that particular contact. Well it is kind of small ...
Any way to see a bigger portrait picture on the phone call screen?

If you get photo contacts pro then you can set them up to show in full Screen. check my signature for it.

if you use this address to link to your stuff uploaded on mediafire, everyone who uploaded something on mediafire saw his own "my folder" please post the url of the single files, or made a "custom" folder with your unique name!

OK right click on the image in photobucket and click properties copy the location, open up a box in XDA press the square picture image and enter location.
Here is a temp that you could use if not showing correct
[*IMG*]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3399/3582562521_ddc76d5fd3_o.jpg[*/IMG*]
Put link in middle and remove the *'s
Also make sure your pics are public "i use flickr so not sure of the options on photobucket"
Oh and you will probably want to use GIMP\Photoshop to put images together as only 4 x image locations per post

i figured it out, hope it all shows up the way i wanted it too lol

Neat Trick

Take a look at this http://wmpoweruser.com/make-your-wp7-lock-screen-transparent-to-show-homescreen/ Neat!

that slick. let the lists of lock screen backgrounds begin!

Hi guys, glad you liked it I might mess around with more wallpapers to see if I can come with with anything else interesting. If there are enough going around, I'll create a new section on my blog with a list of wallpapers.

Can't get it to work on my Trophy... did the email, save, use it as wallpaper thing and its black, no transparency.
Thanks,

Hi Avandor,
I don't have access to a Trophy, but if anyone else tries this, could they please mention the model they have and whether or not it works. I'll update the blog post with the information. Thanks

File is 410Kb in size and PNG format. Wallpaper cant be password protected and the transparency only works after you start scrolling the screen up.

Hi hboos,
Try sending it from another account, as Avandor did. I sent mine from my Hotmail account. When you download, don't download the entire message. Click on the PNG attachment and then wait a few moments. Once the 'cancel' button next the attachment disappears, click again. This should open it in the picture viewer with the option to set as wallpaper. I'll update the blog post to see if anyone else with an Omina has tested it.

ok working now , dif email
and ofcourse a real big thanks to the maker and finder of this trick
edit : I have a hd7

Hey thanks man.
i did as you said and it works
if you save the image and change it from the saved image then it doesn't work..
strange
but good work dude!

Thanks for the feedback guys! It's strange that the transparency is lost if you load the image via the normal route. Might be one of the reasons the Zune software doesn't sync PNG files.

Created a new one for fun. Takes advantage of the fact that the screen isn't loaded until the lock screen is activated.
Image I used:
Image link

if you change it just make sure you save the email so it can reload.

eBookLauncher (new homescreen)

I have finally got a nook
so, I have started porting my Sony homescreen replacement to work on the nook
so far it can get the list of books and shelves (collections), but not much else.
http://code.google.com/p/sonyprst1home/
I'll try to keep this thread updated with how it's going
please let me know if you would like to test this out (I can send you an apk to install)
All new releases will now be made on the google code page above.

it would be grat to have the apk and some screenshot

i would be interested to see a screen shot...

Awesome! Time to test it! I'm at school right now, so this is probably a terrible idea, but I might as well have something to do, right?
Edit: Have some screen shots. Ignore the 10:16 in corner of all the screen shots, I have an app that does that. (Sorry for the massive post)
Mini-Library / Homescreen
Pressing Menu on the Homescreen
Pressing "My Home Settings" here brings you to this screen
Library
Apps Page 1
Apps Page 2
It still seems to have various elements in color besides the app icons and the book covers.

I'll have a look, but I thought I had taken out the code trying to open the database directly.

Only the main page, books and collections screen have been worked on so far.
I haven't even opened the other screens yet, so opening them could do anything (including crash)

It is worked ! , thank you

i`m use apk from http://code.google.com/p/sonyprst1home/downloads/detail?name=SonyPrsT1Home-0.0.4.14.apk&can=2&q=
At now, i solved this issue by editing permissions of file from screenshoot path "chmod 666".

if you use the apk from this thread, it uses a different method of accessing the database, and doesn't need permissions changed on the database file.

Wow, I love this forum!!
From what Googie posted, I can see this is another cool thing to try out.
Now to get an SD card.

Wow, thanks for the great work. Really nice application for too many books and collections.
However, as the project was opensource, are you going to release the modified source somewhere? in a branch or tag or something?
I would like to see the screensaver feature working for last launched book, would try myself if the code was available.

the code is already available at the google code site in the first post

As you mentioned the APK here has a different way of accessing some file, and I don't see a tag or branch for the nook, I understand that the code is the one for the PRS-T1, correct me if I am wrong.

It's the same code. I am making a single apk that will run on a Sony and a nook (and other devices in future)

First general release (0.1.0.00) which runs on both the Nook and Sony is now available on my google code page.

I can't check in the code until I get home tonight, sorry.

Manage attachments

I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but I don't see the manage attachments button under the text field. I searched the FAQ, but could not find if there is some post limit/minimum before being able to do this?

You have to select edit, then select advanced edit. That should be what you're looking for.

Sorry, I'm not seeing edit or advanced edit buttons under the text field. I see Post Icons, Image Verification, and then Submit Reply & Preview Post. I tried both Firefox and Internet Explorer, even turned off ad blockers.

I just realized, you meant edit an already existing post. What I am trying to do is attach a file to a post/reply.

If you click on the reply button, it will open a new screen allowing you to write your post, above the text field you will see lots of buttons, don't you see this "manage attachment" button in this create post screen like shown in my screenshot?
The UI may differ depending on the used theme of course.

No that button is missing for me. Tried to attach a screen shot, but it won't let me do that either (only put in a URL). Tried on mobile device too, and that button is not there.

This attachment feature is not present for members below 10 posts but you are above this limit so it should be there, I don't understand. Some ideas of tests:
- wipe cache of your browser
- try Google Chrome
- try another xda theme
- wait 24h or 48h and it may be fixed by itself
- or if still not working we may need admin assistance

I've no experience with IE but I'd the same issue quite a while ago on FF when I used the add-ons uBlock Origin and NoScript. For this reason, I've created an own profile for FF to use XDA.

Post reset
I had many posts years ago, had not been here for Ca. 2years and now I have 0 posts. So can't post link or attacment. /RANT/
