Hi All,
Since upgrading my XDA Exec to the latest ROM I now don't have the nice little today plugin for the battery montoring. I liked the old one as the new one on the top bar does not show enough info and having to click on it to see what percentage is left is a pain!!
So I dug out the old O2 UI CAB and removed all the stuff except the battery monitor from the CAB file and I have attached it here for anyone else who wants it. I think this should work on other ROMs as I can't see anything specific to O2 in here. Would love to hear from anyone who can run it on Qtek, Imate, Dopod etc?
Regards, Dave...
sweet, saved me having to do it
cheers dude!
Thanks very much, worked a treat!

hmm
great worked fine on my qtek9000 with the latest qtek rom!
:twisted:
Thank you!
It works very fine on my Qtek9000 Newest ROM.
I haven't installed the cab yet but is this what you are talking about if so i have some different skins available

Ah, hadn't searched the forum.. Oops. Nice work you have done on it though.
I had the same problem with the missing icon and the little dots. This is due to the fact the code itself is trying to put something there so to remove it is not so easy unless you had the source.
Maybe one day I will get around to writing my own based on the look of this one. Just not enough hours in the day right now!!
Cheers

Out of interest, I noticed your file is over 200K. Did you keep the original SETUP.DLL file from the original O2 CAB?
I junked this because it kept coming up with the options screen and I had to choose Corporate to bypass this. I used a SETUP.DLL file from another CAB which is much smaller.
Dave...
Thanks for this m8 8) .
Now do you happen to know how to junk the new crappy battery icon?

I am working on that. I hate it and would like to clear it from the top bar!!
Will post if I ever figure it out!!

I installed this to my QTEK9000.
It works fine. Thank you for giving us good one.
Hi there, can you please tell me where to download this file from as I cannot find a link for it in the first post
Don't worry, found it was a security setting in my browser, got the file so thanks guys!!
OK, I have the file, can someone please explain the best way of installing it?? :?
The same way you install any cab.
Copy it onto your device, browse to it with File Explorer and tap it. Accept the security warning and choose where you want it installed to.
Works great, by the way. Thanks indeed
Thanks for the reply, like an idiot I made it more complicated than need be, I automatically assumed I had to unpack it then search for an exe file to install - doh, thanks it works perfectly

To use a Bristolian term - Mint! Sooo much better than having to tap the screen... Cheers!
Sorry, I mean't to ask this one as well. I would appreciate it, if somebody could point me in the right direction to solve this one :
When I go into Word Mobile, and hit new, I always get the message ' A problem with the document was encountered. and it cannot be opened' Why is this ? thanks.
Check menu\options - default template. Its likely that your template is missing or corrupted. Template should be 'default document' - check \my documents\templates - there should be blank document.dot. If you need that file i can post it.
Thanks...that's it ! Nothing under Options/default Template...in fact no templates at all. Also, no Templates folder under My Documents.
Thanks for the offer, which I would like to take advantage of...regards, Mike.
Here they are - dont worry someone else did the same thing (11 downloads so more than one!) a prev post of mine http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=52813
thanks buddy... thats been annoying the hell out of me for weeks :shock:

Is there anyway to make the buttons in the program-tab transparant?
I think it will be more nice now we can have our own background on all tabs.
Any help will be apreciated.
only few seconds ago I thought the same... think i'll edit the manila files till tomorrow ;-)

It will be great when you can fix that and places the files in a .cab
To fix it by myself is a too hard job for me.
Agree, transparent buttons would be a good enhancement.
Transparent Docks
Here you go guys. Just extract the 2 files from the zip to the diamond's (maybe tp's as well) windows directory overwriting any existing files with the same names.
Thanks
Let me be the first so say thank you. Such small steps make a big improvement!

This is not for customized background. This is just to change the docks in the programs tab (the shiny black squares behind the icons) from shiny black to transparent glass.
The Background Image on All Pages mod can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432951
Thanks a lot for working on my request very quickly. Again we are a step more to perfect personalisation of the Diamond
I have to agree, nice work for the cab and the zip ;-)
Starting using this last night. Thought I'd say thanks!
Great to be able to personalize our Diamonds more to how we want it.
Great job, thanks. this Diamond keeps getting better every day.
Brilliant !!!!! thank you

Hi there, fantastic forum.
I came across the attached image. Does anyone know where I can find the "time" addon, cab file or configuration software that allows me to have the same time format as shown in the image?
I like the default home screen but now thinking that the time takes up too much space.
If it dosnt exist, does anyone know where i can start looking to edit my existing home screen..
Cheers n thanks.Mally.
Settings>System>Regional Settings>Time> must be like:
H:mm:ss
P.S need to restart your phone
with that u can change 12\24 time not how big will be the clock
Thanks for the reply, I did dive that a try, all it does is display the clock in different ways. Still takes up 1/3 of the screen.

Does anyone know how to change the lock slider to the bottom like the iPhone? please help. Thanks.
search "S2U2" via google.
problem is I'll slide twice as both two lock screen programs are running
For a start, there is a way to turn off the default lock screen if you're using S2U2
Tip 27 from the Hints and Tips thread (I strongly suggest you read it all)
Tip 27. Disable Auto Screen Lock
If you use S2U2, you would have hated the double lock annoyance. Now you can turn off default Auto Screen Lock.
Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 0, or use the following cab:

Second, you don't need to use a 3rd party app, you can just run the HeartOfWolf Lockscreen mod in my signature and it'll move the slider to the bottom of the screen for you. I have no idea why they put it at the top?

Can you explain a bit about this one rather than just post the cab please
You can try the HD2 Mini lockscreen cab..it's quite good, just don't use the PIN unlock.
It's slide down to unlock and it tells you any missed calls, SMS, emails etc...i quite like it actually..

You can also take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632637
At the bottom, the OP posted a modified 480x800 cpr file to do want you want. All you need to do is change the extension from .txt to .cpr, open file explorer and put it in the Windows\Lockscreen file and soft reset.
EDIT:
Also, if you are using the HeartofWolf Mod and would prefer to have the original larger slider size instead of the small skinny one, I've made a few modifications to his LS_LockScene_480x800 and attached it below. All you need to do is change the file extension from .txt to .cpr and install it into your windows\lockscreen file, soft reset and you're good to go. Of course, please back up the original LS_LockScene_480x800 before installing this one, just in case you would like to revert back to the small slider. And of course all credits to HeartofWolf, I just made a couple of changes to his work.

It literally swaps the slider and phone location on the lock screen, nothing more.
Another nice solution is DJ Pete's locksreen. It's a simple modification of the windows lockscreen with manila clock, calendar appointments and slider variations. You can find it at pocketpc.ch in the thread
[Lockscreen] iLook v3.0c [NEUE VERSIONEN!|WM6.5/6.5.x WVGA][27.02.10].
! It's in German.

Kandekied, to get you started, go into your windows directory inside file explorer and open the lockscreen folder. Next, copy the file LS_LockScene_480x800 somewhere onto your PC and open it using notepad. That particular file is for Portrait. If you want to modify landscape also, then copy LS_Lockscene_800x480. With the file open on your PC in notepad, you are now ready to begin modifying. The particulars of what you want to do would take alot of space on this post to describe, but to get you pointed in the right direction, I've copied a few threads for you to look at that will help you get started.

You see, this is why I asked for more information about this in the first place. I never install a cab that I've not read about first and that people have tested a bit. You should always link to the thread a cab came from, not just the cab.
Also, chill out. You installed a cab from a random thread and it wasn't what you wanted. If you have to hard reset it's your problem not ours.
If people don't reply to a post it's because they either don't want to or don't know. There is no point in wetting your panties and posting multiple times. It's more likely just to p!ss everyone off and make them not reply.
