Windows Vista Portable Edition VGA 1.1 .. WHERE IS IT ?

Hey Guys..
I just got my HTC Advantage X7501, and I flashed teh room to Pawel's one.. I'm really enjoying it so far. I just bought WA2 and WAD and I was really looking forward to putting the Windows Vista Portable Edition VGA 1.1 theme on my athena, because a while ago I saw people who had it, and it looked so epic. Well, I just found out by doing a quick google search that all of these themes were removed. Now I'm really bummed because I really wanted to see my Athena running this sort of thing.
If anyone still has it on their pc, or can point me towards a link that I can find it at, it would be greatly appreciated. You can email me the info at [email protected] or send me a PM via XDA Forums if you feel you need to address me through those methods.
Once again Thank You for all your contributions. I am sure I am not the only person searching for this theme, so the person helping me, would also be helping a lot of people.. THANKS.

Hey whaddup,
I have it, but I'm not sure how to get it to you. I dont want to get into any legal "BS" over it. Is it okay if I email it to you? Or can a file like this be PM?
Let me know.....but I'm more than willing to share!!!

I am pretty sure you can upload it to somewhere like rapidshare or megaupload, or I think you might be able to email it to me.
Thanks so much.
Edit: Actually you can just attach it to a post, at very bottom when you are replying to someone, it says attach. I think that might do teh trick !!
THANKS

will do. first thing tomorrow tho.
peace

Thanks man, I and probably a lot of forum members appreciate it.

my humble apologies to everyone. i had a major examine in class yesterday and it completely slipped my mind. on my way home right now....give me about one and half hour.
I will send it to the author of the thread and upload...if i can figure it out.
my apologies again!

Okay....I tried to email and upload this file. Its too big. 23mb. What else can i do? I dont know how to do the whole rapidshare thing. Willing to learn though!!

Post it on the forums, when you reply to the thread, there is an option to attach a file. You shoudl see it when you click post reply. Should be next to attachments or something like that.

Yeah, that is what I tried to do. But the file is so big, it canceled out and told me to contact the administration. This was after 10mins of waiting to attach.
Any other options?

I also tried to email it to you and it was to heavy as well!! Um stuck

I also tried to email it to you and it was to heavy as well!! Um stuck

Ok !
Thanks for all the hard work. I think I have an idea.
Goto http://rapidshare.com/
On the page, you browse for the file and press OK, and click upload, I think that is pretty straightforward. When you're done, you can copy and paste the link either here on the forums, or you can just email it to me.
Thanks again for everything !

not got that file anymore but this is worth a read.

Hey Man !
Thanks for contributing to the thread.
That link was very helpful and I am sure will help me much when playing around with the theme.
Thanks.

http://rapidshare.com/files/88499060/Xcil_Windows_Vista.zip.html
Here we go. Now I know how to rapidshare.
I will break the link in three days. By then, everyone who requested should have it.
Peace
BTW....this skin was created by the legendary Xcilion. May the artist resurface again with an even more impressive theme!!!!

I hope everyone has download this. Those that request it. Please post by 10am central standard if you need more time, I'm willing to postpone just a little. I'm going to kill the link at that time.
Reason for: I know the artist/skinner who created this was asked to discontinue it by Microsoft. Why? I have know idea!! So I dont want to get into any mess with this.
Other else....I would leave it up here for good.
Thanks for your understanding!!!!
Kenjari

Is there another posting?
I would like to snag it too, but it looks like it is getting more scarce because of Microtrust's involvement.
Thx,

Newbie - What can be done?

Hey guys new to the forum - i've had a HD for about 3 months now and done nothing with it just used it as i would a nokia 402! lol I chose this over the iphone simply because of the keybad option when typing texts etc.
What cool things can be done to make my HD better?
My HD runs slow all the time -it's not loaded up with junk or any files at all really and yet it runs slow when the hardware specs suggest it shouldnt. I'm on orange (so prolly got a bs orange rom, right?)
Can you get cool games for the HD for when im at work like you can the iphone?
Many Thanks.

I recomend having a look in the ROM dev forum and wait until dutty releases his 3.9xt ROM.
If you flash this rom you will think you have a new phone!
Read up on crackwhores guide to flashing as i'm guessing you will have the stock spl.
So you have to flash an official HTC 1.54 ROM first. Then flash duttys.
I may sound complicated but it really isn't.
Also, if i were you i'd use USPL as appose to HSPL as the latter voids your phone warranty!
Jake

so you think i should wait for a new release from Dutty?

Well he's got 3.8 out atm but said he'll upload 3.9 tonight so ye, i'd wait a day tbh.
Also, there have been some problems with people using backup&restore programs for sms, contacts and things so if you can sync your calendar and contacts using outlook that would be even better.
His new ROM will also be UC compatible which is going to make installing all your main cabs the easiest thing in the world
Jake

Flash some different chef roms and add a little spice to your device!

are there any decent games and things like there are for iphones?

Are you using search because your questions have been answered many times all over this site look above and type what you want in search you will be surprised by what you can learn or you can check the wiki as well they even list what works and what doesnt including games

Read all you can about flashing and then, try new ROM's.
My ROM if Laurentius L26, and I'm really satisfied with it...
Also take a look on apps to install...

Im dim.... what's flashing and how would I load duttys new rom version, can I break my phone in doing so??....sorry

Yeah sorry i made this thread because it's quick and easy to keep an eye on - i'm at work you see and they wouldnt appreciate it if i was on one site for 50-60mins searching around, i perhaps should have stated that in my first thread. Sorry.

Mate, the best thing to do is search and learn...
Flashing is changing the ROM (software) of your mobile. You can change the stock ROM by a lot of cooked ROMs that are posted here at the site.
But until you decide on what to do, read carefully all threads to understand how it works...

i've flashed it to Dutty's XT Turbo 3.9... it's pretty nice. I was just asking about the gsensor games lol

there are plently.. at least for starters u are in the right forum !!!!
search around look around.. ask questions at QnA
you can take a look at my humble blog too... there are some useful freewares made by folks here mentioned there too

I want that Dusk Manila theme, not entirely sure how to do it though and cant find any info on it Any shed any light on it for me?

I promise it won't be a lengthy wait.

I'm willing to wait but loving the idea.
Any pointers on threads instructing how to make the icons? I've had no luck with maxttm and editing the manila files doesn't seem to work out for me.

I have recently started editing Manilla files and have to say that it is a lot of work. This is a great idea and i bid you good luck.

I got side-tracked by some Sense2.5 work.
I am going to dedicate some time to this on Sunday.

Making any progress?

I am about 1/2 way though it.
Thank you all for being so patient.

Very nice mate... clever idea to split up each icon. Must be a pain in the a$$ though
I have some icons if you'd be interested: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5713191

Lookin' Good!

Just wanted to update anybody that is waiting for this.
I hope to have the site go live by late Sunday.
Almost done with them.

Pretty sweet. Been quiting smoking and then sick for the past few weeks. Haven't even gotten on XDA or thought about screwing with the phone during that time.
About to get back to normal and you're about done. Perfect timing as far as I'm concerned.

This is now available.
First post has been updated.
Please note, I am only human, and this was alot of files.
There may be some mistakes.
If you find any, just let me know here and it will be fixed.
Please, no requests yet. After this I need to take a week or 2 off from this stuff.

Excellent job mate !
I've tried only a few, but they look so good on my phone !!!
Thanks very much !

I agree instead of undercutting another chef, why don't you try something new? Just a suggestion.

I didn't undercut anybody. I spoke directly to Hector and obtained his permission to post this up before posting it.
On a side note, I felt my post would be easier for other's to read and use, since Hector had only posted a paragraph and a link to zenulator's original Hero ROM thread. He's, since then, copied info from zenulator's post and fixed his post up.

Is there any way you can get rid of the background image on the icons? To be honest they look like the xPhone and takes away from the Sense UI, which is crisp and clean.

when uploading roms, i suggest using multiupload..
rs gives users a maximum of 10 downloads before killing the link..
just a fyi

I'm a rapidshare premium member, so there shouldn't be a 10 download limit on my links, but thank you for the heads up

wi-fi not working.

WOW. This looks mighty nice. I wish I wasnt on vacation still and could flash to this. Nice work mang!

Nice looking rom. Not as functional as I need it to be to take it's place of my everyday rom, but it's still nice to look at.

Just tried your Rev2 and I like it! It's quick and I haven't found a problem yet. Will bt it to my car radio on the way home. The icons are different than I am used to but they are growing on me...sort of Ipod Touchish. Good job!

It appears as though your extra downloads aren't signed...at least that is the message I got when I tried to flash.

Galaxy Note FAQ

Hello Everyone,
I am in the process of compiling a Galaxy note FAQ, to hopefully help avoid thread clutter through repeated questions.
I'll be putting it here:
http://lishutterbug.com/note
It will take me a while to get all the information I can find compiled up, but you can keep an eye on the page as I update it through the coming days.
Any suggestions/comments are welcome.
If I make any mistakes, or if you have any information to add that isn't in this forum (I plan on grinding through every thread) then please let me know!
Thanks!
- Frank

Great idea and a nice start.

Thanks, well done.

Went through the FAQ, really great!
One thing is wrong though. Opera doesn't have any Night Mode.
There used to be a hacked/modified/modded version with night mode but it's an old version, and download links are broken.
BUT, I found this.

BTW, I was forced to help a friend get gmail widget on his Galaxy S II, and I realized a few things google did in Gmail 2.3.5 to prevent external apps from accessing gmail data, Hence, no widget without any hacking.
Eventually I came across a post which I don't remember where it is, which explained how to decompile Gmail.apk with apk manager, change some lines in the manifest xml, recompile, install and bam, Email Widget started working.
This could prove very useful on a large screen such as the note's.
On the 5th of dec, i get my own note, i'll be doing it and youtubing/documenting it.
Wanna add it to the FAQ?

If u can provide a back to top link to the table of content every end of the ans will be good

You write that you can use a SGS2 bootloader to reset counter using the jig. I did that with xxkka ROM and now my brand new Galaxy Note is bricked.
Thanks a lot!
Edit: It wasn't bricked after all! That bad flash only killed the screen! Got it flashed again with the orig rom without being able to see what I was doing! Now the screen is working again!

I have been reluctant to add mods/hacks to the FAQ for this very reason.
I only add stuff if there are several 'thanks, that worked for me' posts after it.
The problem with this sort of thing is that there is no guarantee that methods will continue to work with future updates. So it's inherently risky.
Perhaps I should just post links to the posts containing methods to do stuff.
