Problems with MDA Vario IV - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Hi all,
Currently am I using the MDA Vario IV from T-Mobile. Cause they delivered with a complete ugly theme am I using the black carbon theme. Now I have two problems and I hope someone can help me.
Music
Programs
1. Music
The music tab doesnt change like a normal Diamond when you go to library. So this way I can't remove any songs in that playlist or add them. Does someone knows how to solve this or work around it?
2. Programs
When I go to the Programs tab and press more I can't read the titles of the programs because the font is still black. Does someone know where to change the color of this font?
Thank you for your time reading this and I sure hope people can help me.

Hmm, go to the Raphael forum. This forum would be for the T-mobile equivalent of MDA Compact IV. Hope you find an anwer.

You were right, I installed a theme from Raphael forum and now is it solved.

Changing phone skin

Hi everybody,
I used to change dialer skins with DesignLab XDA Skin chooser but suddenly the skin is not changing.
Everytime I try to change it, the old one remains in use. And it's not the standard skin.
Anyone has seen this problem before?
If so how do you reset to the standard skin?
Where is it saved?
Thanks for your help
Hi Durius,
hmm, I never managed to change Dialer Skins with XDA Skin Chooser on my Himalaya Device. I rememer reading in this forum that the skin Chooser only works with XDA I Phones (but I may be mistaken). Just search the forum.
Instead I use V2R Skin Installer for Phone Skins.
You can get this at http://www.ppc-club.com
Additionally there are quite few Skins. Unfortunately you can D/L only two or three before they start charging you.
To be ahead of hshortt :wink: , there are skins on his side too:

DOH! Pipped to the post again! hee hee
Hi,
I've used XDA skin chooser for sometime on qtek 2020 and it worked but then I could not change the phone skin anymore.
Now I've installed V2R and the question is that I want to use the t-mobile phone skin but I always get the skin previously installed.
So, what I would like to know is how to change the skin by hand...
Is there a way?
Thanks you all

Hmm,
maybe a more advanced user can point out a way to use the t-mobile customization cab located in the extended rom....
Or maybe you can use the Information provided in this thread:

Hi
I think the dialer skin is located ( at least on my O2 XDA2 ) under
windows\v2r\DialerSkins\o2_skin
I guess tmob will have something similar... so just exchanging these files should work

Orange Today Plugin

Hi guys,
I was trying different ROM's on my Universal today, to see what the different operators were offering. When I came across the Orange Today Plugin. I like the idea of it, but not the setup.
So, I was wondering if anyone here knew how to add, remove, or change the items in this plugin ?
I did a little search of the forum for an answer to this question, but it seems i'm looking to do the opposite to what everyone else is doing.
re
could u be more specific...
In this screen dump, you can see the plugin.
I'd like to be able to change the selections and the links in each selection.
For example, change the five links in the Web selection of the screen dump to five of my own URL's.
Or better still, add or replace one of the selections in the plugin with one that points to My Device. That when highlighted would have links to 'My Docs' 'SD Card' 'Program Files' etc.
I hope that makes sence.
I'm searching the same solution.

Hi filippodisvevia,
I fonud how to change the URL's, but not the sections.
Look in your Windows folder for a file called Full_one.xml, the URL's are at the top and the link names are near the bottom.
Good luck :wink:
thnx

Hi cudo,
Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=61711&highlight=today+plugi+orange you can file the cab e some other file.
I'd like to personalize the cab if I understand how it work.
It works on qtek 9000\jasjar\xdaexec so I think is good for t-mobile too.
Hi Guys,
That plugin is from the SPV M3100 and works diferently to the Universal version. See my post at the bottom of that link above.
If you want the proper Universal Today Plugin with bigger icons for the Universals bigger screen. You'll have to install the Orange M5000 ROM, as its built into it. Plus the Orange ROM has just been updated with a new Radio driver.
I'm using the new Orange ROM, with the last O2 Ext ROM, and the Signed_ORUK_HomeScreenReg.sa.CAB from the Orange Ext ROM as it has the Reg settings for the plugin. And everything is working great. 8)

:thx:
I downloaded the cab from ftp, and install it, but nothing seems to hapen
I have T-mobile base rom and Qtek extended rom installed...
Hi people,
This thread is more usefull if you are looking for a cab file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=61711&highlight=
I installed the cab posted and works fine on my wizard. Although u do lose all your other today plugin functionality. But the plugin is handy. even though limited in use.
I was thinking of finding some great developers on this site who would like to creat such a program but which could be used alongside the other today plugins. Anyone interested let me know.
Cheers,
Shah
What do you mean "finding some great developers"?
@filippodisvevia,
Heres the CAB file, but it ONLY works with the Orange ROMs. As the files needed aren't in the other ROM's.
@gtm55,
You need the Orange ROM installed before the CAB file will work.

Great or good developers. Who are able to program such a plugin. because u have beginner programmers, novice programmers, and advanced programmers and if you like great programmers.
Just to keep it simple a person or persons who are able to create such a apps, which is usable in different WM phone devices. I just used great, because I know there are some pretty great (good) programmers on this site.
Cheers,
Shah
Thank you, ZaForD, I really like Orange plug-in, but I'll stay with T-mobile (1.30.115 WWE).
Thank's so much fora cab Zanford

Now understand.
Every help will be fine.

Looking for t-mobile today theme

Hi, I'm looking for some help. My UK t-mobile Vario II phoned was killed in a car door, needless to say my insurance paid up for a replacement but they replaced it with a HTC Tytn which doesn't have some of the accessories that came with the T-Mobile Vario II I had.
I'm looking for the t-mobile today theme which gives a series of shortcut icons to various phone features, namely
Web and Walk, Contacts, Phone, Messages, Organiser
I downloaded the extended rom for the Vario II from this web site, which contains the settings, configuration and accessories applied to the Vario II by t-mobile.
Does anyone know which CAB file in the extended rom has this accessory/theme or does anyone know where I can download it directly or what it is called or recommend a good replacement?
Would really appreciate the help
Thanks in advance
Ersen
I am also looking for the T-Mobile Today theme. Anybody?
What you're probably going to have to do is flash the ROM to one of the T-Mobile ROMs. You'll find a listing of the ROMs that are available in the Wiki along with the instructions as to how to do it.

Thank you. But I am looking for the standard theme with the parallel running dots.

I hope this is what you are looking for . This needs to placed in the device Windows directory.

This is the crucial bit, and still seems to be working
http://www.planete-htc.com/index.php?mod=forum&ac=voir&id=20612&debut=20&cat=237
It is in French but the gist of it is, when installing DO NOT let your screen turn off!!! and it takes AGES to install, about 20-30 minutes.
Once it is installed, reboot and you have the default HTC black theme, with white fonts. You can then install any theme you want without CFC compression

Scuba, I have had it on my Voda branded phone for 3 weeks or so and it is superb, you cannot tell it apart from a stock phone pal (you still get the red voda startup screen thats all).

Have put the touch of blue theme on and its just what i wanted.

I've tried this and it works great. The only thing you loose is the TF3D 2.1 Facebook integration that was on the Vodafone UK version.
I've installed the black cab and the touch of blue theme, along with the manilla today page, so pretty happy.
Is there a way to bring back the facebook intergration with the contacts on the vodafone TP2, as I quite enjoyed the updates to my contacts pictures.
Over on the topaz section there's a facebook intergration thread with fixes, could this work on ours, I might give it a try and see
This worked for me
