Hi,
does anyone know how to change the default TF3D wallpaper folder or at least, how to create a shortcut in this folder that link my pics folder in Memory Card ?
i had looked for many post but found nothing ...
if someone know how to do that, he will be my god
Thank in advance.
Someone can help ?
I don't understand why you'd need it??
My pics are in my memory card and each time i want to change the wallpaper i have to browse to this folder ...
If i could change the default folder to my folder in memory card, it will more easy and faster.
Anyone got any ideas on this? I can understand the requirement.
I would just make a standard folder shortcut from the SD card to My Pictures.
I got the same problem and what I did was make a "\Storage card\DCIM\Wallpaper" folder. Put all my wallpapers there and when in TF3D I go to settings->wallpaper, I only need to change to storage card from the dropdown menu, and then I got listed all my folders with my pictures.I Just click on "wallpapers" and choose one

Beware!...cause if U have changed to SD card...it stop responding after a while and it makes back to default windows folder!...I suggest to use the Storage folder for ringtones...not the SD card.
For the reminder...I don`t know the answer sorry... :roll:

What's awhile???

Don`t know mate...but I have to change it every day...cause it always change it to a default directory... :roll: Look at the thread about it...which ROM version do u use?
Regards,
Primoz
p.s. I was using it with Caller ID...
I have Untouched ROM 1.03.00WWE
When i choose a file and press "set as a ringtone" it SAYS " Copied to \windows\rings\****
But when i check the rings Folder it never does...i don't know
But it is working perfectly even when it wakes up from suspend state or after a SR.
I read the thread about...
Now i wanna know if i can do the same to Themes and alarms
AFAIK for themes you can do it. just place the themes on an SD card or Storage and copy ignore_my_docs to the root and they should appear on your selection screen. As for reminders I haven't seen anything on that yet.
Thank you, worked like a charm.....
Now any1 knows about the reminders?
your welcome been looking around the registry and I've found only one entry for it.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Notifications\Reminders\
doesn't seem to be a directory entry like in rings though.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Notifications\Reminders\
I have seen that before tried to make some changes, but nothing happened.
i appreciate the help
Still looking for a definite answer to whether if it is possible or not?
hi i'm murdok
is possible to change default directory of themes?
(excuse me for my terrible english)
just put you're themes at the root of the storage card
i put all the .tsk file in the root of \Storage Card. And everything is ok.
the problem is just this, i would want put the themes files in a folder for having more order in memory card root
Wouldn't it make sense to put themes in your Windows directory? My thinking is that the internal memory is faster and doesn't go to sleep when the unit is in standby. I haven't done any testing, but I have a feeling that there may be a small increase in loading speed when coming out of standby/etc. Anyone have a stopwatch that isn't on their PPC?
I just put the TSK file where ever I want then open the file from there. I am not sure exactly what happens, but from that time forward the theme shows up in the theme listing.

I have my themes in a themesdirectory in my documents
I just put it into My Documents folder and thing seem to be OK
Hi,just setting up my M700 and need to transfer my themes over.Usually do this by just restoring from sprite backup. However this time I did a complete clean install. Problem is I cant find the normally present themes folder so as for them to appear in the today menu. Usually its in the windows folder but I cant find it.Where can I put them oe where is it located (the're a lot of them in a folder I created called themes) so as to be visable to the device ie usable/selectable as today backscreens? Thanx all.
The .tsk files should be stored in \windows
When you say that you can't see it, do you mean that you can't see \windows in the explorer on your PC when the phone is connected via ActiveSync?
If this is the case, then it might be due to the fact that the \windows folder is hidden and the explorer on your PC is not showing hidden files and folders.
Try also in My Documents.
Thanx for the reply,unfortunately didnt work
@Its : I can see the windows folder in both my trinity and pc
@MacGuy2006 : Have looked in my documents to no avail
Perhaps another way of posing the question would be how or where do I put additional themes so i can use them. I would rather not have them just put in like that in the windows or whatever folder as I'd like to keep them tidy and organised in their own sub-folder called themes.That way I can edit/remove/add them easily. What pathway or tweak if possible could I use to run them off the storage card to save on space?
Thanx again.

You can put the tsk files in the ROOT directory "/" of your miniSD card and WM5 will find them. I do this to save storage on my phone.

ok thanx matterhorn. May have to do that as its proving a pain.Just that I have more than enough space on the trinity itself.just cant get them to be seen
I download the zipped up tsk file to the storage card.
When I upzip it (by double clicking on the new icon shown in my storage card it gives the options of where you want to send it). I send it to the "my dococuments" on my phone. Then when you go into "settings", then "today" screen you'll have a choice of all your new tsk files added to the original ones.
i was wondering is there a way we can add programs from the sd card to the short cut on the manila program launcher. i know if u copy it from sd to the program section on the phone u will be able to do it but wont that take up more memory and slower your phone down.. i mean its already pretty slow after the manila theme but any ways let me know if there is any other way of doing that thanks a lot xda people.....

Just use a prog like Total Commander to make links to the Storage Card progs. Make sure you put the links in /Windows/Start Menu/Programs/. Now, you'll be able to add them to the Launcher menu.
copy and then paste the shortcut only. this doesnt take much memory at all.
and it works perfect.
this u also can do with the standart file explorer
how do u do that.. i try but couldn't find how to create shortcuts..
There is a free program with name "start menu manager" that does exactly this, Google it.

(number of characters here)# "program location here"
save as a .txt and rename to .lnk and place it in windows\start menu\program files
apps from sd run slows
Using the default file explorer just copy the file then paste as shortcut. That's the easiest way to do it on the device.
Tips to get Maximum Free Storage with Official ROMs
1. Flash the ROM of your choice using Goldcard method.
2. Hard reset.
3. Use file explorer (Enable "show all files") and delete the following or move them to storage card if you need them.
a. Folder: My Device\Music
Delete the sample song folders.
b. Folder: My Device\My documents\My Pictures
Delete all or move to storage.
c. Folder: My Device\My documents\My wallpapers
Delete all or move to Storage.
d. Folder: My Device\My documents\My wallpapers
e. Folder: My Device\Program files
Delete the folder "copilot"
f. Folder: My Device\Windows\Animated Wallpaper
Delete all or move to Storage.
g. Folder: My Device\Windows\
Delete Opera 9.exe
h. Folder: My Device\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
Delete which ever shortcut you don't need.
i. Folder: My Device\Windows\Rings
Delete the Ring tones you don't use or move them to storage.
Now, you should be having atleast 155Mb+ free space.
Enjoy!

I get a message telling me I can't delete opera9.exe because it's in ROM memory

There will be two Opera9.exe files.
One in storage and another in ROM.
Once you delete the one in storage, the other one in ROM shows up which cannot be deleted.
May be you have deleted the one in storage already.
Check for the difference in available free storage.(If you remember what was before you start, there should be an increase of ~8Mb)
Some of those files may not be deleteable, or may not have an effect on free memory. The ones in \Windows will probably have to be there and deleting them will have no effect. Cooking a ROM with those files absent will give lots of free space though!
There are no programs in start menu, only shortcuts. And upon reset those shortcuts will reappear but without their icons (which sucks.. how do you get them back?) Or am i wrong here?
