Carrier logo under WM2003

After I updated my XDA to WM2003, I can't seem to use a operator logo like I could using PPC2002....
I tried editing the registry and using a carrierlogo.gif but both methods don't work anymore.
Can someone please tell me how this can be done under WM2003?
Thanks in advance,
Max

Which ROM did you upgrade to also did you do a RS update with it?

just run T-Mobile Phone Book program, you need to run it at least once.
After the Phone Book program can load all contact from your sim, your carrier logo will appear.

No luck here......
Did you use the carrierlogo.gif, of did you edit the registry?

edit the registry... i remember there was a post about how to do it...

does the operator logo work on XDA II ??
I am using a qtek rom 1.60

It work on XDAII also. But seems some problems with that.
1. You can not get "real "white background of the gif file.
2. carrier logo high limited 20/21 pixels. Too small too see the logo.
3. Logo only appeared in dial interface and incall interface.
I had test it on my XDAII last night.

Vodafone QVGA Today screen

If anyone is running the stock Vodafone DE rom for the VPA compact III, would you mind sending me the Vodafone Today screen .tsk file?
Many thx

I found the Vodafone dialer but now need the today screen (the grey one with the map of the world imprinted in the background)

I'm running the standard Vodaphone ROM on my v1605, where would I find the file you're looking for?

Hi - it should be in your Windows directory on the PDA. I think it was just called Vodafone.
Many thanks!!

Here you go, don't mention it.

Well Im gonna mention it!! THANKS ALOT!!

Orange m700 Orange World Tv

ok I got a new m700 from carphonewarehouse a couple of days a go. It's been unlocked and ROM flashed with The offical HTC Rom. I wanted to try get connected to Orange TV subscription, but find out that apprently the url
http://orangeworld.co.uk doesn't take me to the page it should, there is a page on the original ROM that stores the orange world webpage which allows you to access premium services.
Anyone know how to get this back onto the device. Orange basically are not supporting this even though one of their customer service reps advised me to use the HTC ROM to enable the GPS.
At worst does anyone know where I can get the Original Orange ROM from? Could it be that I just need the orange Today theme back?
Thanks for any replies..

Thats strange, I have the M700 and my GPS was enabled with the Orange ROM.
Personally I'd say you've been screwed by customer support, as now you've flashed your ROM, they will no longer support the device, as it's not factory standard.
Nobody has the Orange ROM available, went through this about a month back, Orange havent released it and it's not a simple job of just dumping the ROM from an Orange SPV M700, sorry.

Thanks. Was only today when Orange informed me that the M700 does come Gps enabled. Everything else works fine but would have been nice to try the tv service out. Daft that orange will only let you order the service through the handset and on a gprs connection. Can anyone tell me what the orange extended cab files are for?

Plus how do you 'hard reset' this phone?

Not from their point of view, you're using GPRS, pay more to them.
The Orange GPS software is a prime example, not only do you have to pay for the software, but every time you plan a route, it connects to Orange via GPRS and downloads the route, double the cash!

Yeah guy in CPW said I'd get co-pilot free with it. But next day when I went to pick it up he said it only came free with a £50 a month data package. Just laughed at him... he seemed to think that co-pilot was gprs based for some reason.
So then does anyone know how to 'dump' the orange today theme from the m700?

You will need a copy of the Orange ExtROM, then perform a hard reset. You'll probably also need the Orange boot screens to make it look totally Orange-like.
BS...

My manuals at home. How do I perform the hard reset?

the orange extrom contains nothing useful really, just a few tweaks to adjust whats already on the rom. The WWE M700 hasnt been released by Orange so theres no way to get it back, or any of the orange programs, plugins or today screen.

The Orange Ext_Rom doesn't contain all the Orange customisations, unlike most previous Pocket PC's. Orange now seem to include some of their stuff in the main ROM, so these can't be easily replaced.
The Orange Today theme is possible to reload, but probably won't contain the OrangeTV or OrangeWorld stuff.
If you were told by CS to reflash the ROM with the HTC ROM, because the CS Rep was badly informed, or badly trained, there may be a record of this advice on your customer record- if so you'd have good grounds to ask for a replacement with a genuine Orange ROM.

Right. Finally got a solution for this...pens ready..
Get hold of and install 'resco registry' software, then using the 'find' tool, goto
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Internet explorer\User Agent
Then put this line into the editable txt field.
ppc; 240x320; SPV M700; OpVer 5.1.465
And do the same for:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform
ppc; 240x320; SPV M700; OpVer 5.1.465
Note: I have the HTC Offical ROM on my M700 so the OpVer may be different depending on what ROM you have flashed on the phone.
Also you can browse to http://wap.orange.co.uk/transform on the handset, and if the ppc string shows up as above you shoudl be ready to go.

Hello,
I added the line to the registry but when I got to the Orangeworld site I still get a text version as if its an old style wap page?
Is there a specific address I should be using with IE, or is there something else I need to have edited?
Thanks for the info so far though

Hi,
I had this exact problem with the vodafone live website. Could someone with an Orange m700 handset visit http://www.useragentstring.com and paste the result from the "Your User Agent String" in the forum.
hollandg, could you do the same thing and post your result. This way we can compare the two strings.
If this isnt the problem, I suspect it may be either incorrect proxy settings, or you're not connecting to the site via the correct 3G data connection.
...also, just wondering, did you clear your browser history, cookies and cache?

And try the other registry edit I've added to post above.

Still nothing :-(
tried the 2 regedits, now it seems the internet connection full stop is not working ... but when it was I still couldnt get the 'proper' orangeworld website?
Anyone know if this is something to do with a file that lives in the M700 rom that needs extracting?

Ive done that. And progress of sorts. For Orange World the graphics are back but my number is still 'not recognised' so cannot access my home pages or Orange TV. Using www.useragenstring.com. Ive got ??? against SPV, M700, OpVer and 5.1.465. Perhpas there are some other registry settings needing further tweaks?
A friend of mine has an unflashed M700. Her network details for Orange Wap pointed at 192.168.10.2. (different from the ones given by Orange -192.168.71.35). This doesnt connect on my M700. Dont understand this.

Ive still not managed to find a solution to this issue. Could somebody with an uncooked Orange UK M700 please look up the following registry keys for me?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Internet explorer\User Agent
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform
Could anybody advise me as to how to find out the appropriate OpVer for my M700, now cooked with Muns wonderful WM6 ROM. Is this the same as the OS? -this shows as 5.2.1413.3 on mine. But this setting doesnt give a solution to my access problems to Orange World.

[All Devices] HTC Settings Wizard

The HTC Settings Wizard is a desktop application which automatically configures the correct GPRS/3G/MMS settings on your mobile.
It was avaible on the HTC eClub website but unfortunately it's been removed.
---------------------
Available for the following countries:
Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK
---------------------
How to install:
1. Go here and download the version of your choice: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=e98b1d739a4246b37069484bded33bcdaa1fb52fc54fedd0
2. Make sure your mobile is connected via Active Sync/Mobile Device Center
3. Start the application and choose the provider of your choice
4. Installation on your mobile is automated (kinda )
Settings can be removed via "Remove Programs"
---------------------
References:
Confirmed working on:
- HTC S620, WM 6 (country: Germany, provider: Eplus)
- HTC P4350, WM6 (country: Germany, provider: Eplus)
Since the S620 is a smartphone and them P4350 is a touchscreen based device, I guess the wizard should work on any device.
Anyways... it'd be nice if somebody could try the wizard on a WM 5 based device. Just to make sure it's working
---------------------
I hope that might help everbody who got stuck with the GPRS/3G/MMS configuration.

Vodafone have branded the TF3D red.... has anyone got the generic in a .cab form so we can escape the carrier colours. This would be really helpful (it was done for the TP1). If the neon one has been donw, can you make the origional?

Suppose I could have a look at this for you. Is it just the front screen or is it the All Contacts and other screens too?

It would be great if you could create a cab to clear all of the Vodafone branding.
I had a go at changing it last night when I got home from the pub and ended up with black text on a slightly less black background. Had to hard reset it

yeh i second that... the vodafone branding makes it difficult to use a darker background...i had a got at changing it with manila editor but am having great difficulties doing it...also got exams in a week! worst time to get a new phone!

vodafone did the lot.... unlike other operators

Ok, I've tested the default on my friends Vodafone TP2 but it doesn't look right with the font. Need to work out how to change the font which isn't going to be easy!

i, and many others, are and will be very grateful, anything to escape voda branding to this extent
