Hey all
I've just recently upgraded from a Magician to a Prophet.
One thing I've discovered is that images I set as the wallpaper get converted and saved in jpg with a compression mode of, like two or something.
It never did this in WM2003 on my Magician. It was always tiled.
The screenshots can probably describe it better than I can.
Image set as wallpaper through the today screen/WM5 Picture Viewer.

Even when I set transparency to 0:

A brief search of the forums shows nothing. I've not really looked into it yet (landscape issue? ctrl+f registry, etc) but when I get a fix I'll post it here.
Anyone got any ideas in the mean time?
Please no "omg i see no diffrence lol" posts.
The files "stwater_240_320.jpg" (portrait) and "stwater_320_240.jpg" (landscape) are in \windows\ and are the images used on your desktop. Copy your files directly over these and you will keep whatever quality you originally had without them being downsampled by the wallpaper picker.
It also allows you to have a different image for landscape and portrait.

Hello,
I'm currently using this layout for the HTC Home plugin:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You can see a dark square on the selected tab. Is there any way to remove the dark square, so that youy cant see any difference between tabs ?
The following thing I tried don't work:
- remove from program files\htc home : HH_FW_selectedfill.png, HH_FW_selectedleft.png, HH_FW_selectedright.png, HH_BEZEL_fill.png (home plugin will load empty when doing this)
- put empty files in program files\htc home and renamed them to the ones above in this post (home plugin will load empty when doing this)
- resized the files to 1 pixel by 1 pixel (no difference in change at all)
Does anyone know how it can work ?
PS: the default files were already transparant so that's also not an option
try renaming the pressed button pics to the name of the unpressed.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks for the reply, but thats just impossible
I made some reg tweaks as CABs.
The first one is to enable ClearType in landscape.
I made 2 screen shots (note that clear type is some what blurry, but you see less "jaggies" I hope that is the right word):
With ClearType:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Without ClearType:
Look especially at the "y" to see the difference!
The second CAB is for Power Saving. It enables 3 power management options in the registry. I don't know yet how successful this is, but on PPCs it is very good.http://www.mediafire.com/?9xsulxowjzz
If you don't want it anymore you can easily uninstall them!
Please report back if they work properly, especially the ClearType one, as I read that it reverts back after a few reboots!
Thanks for the CABs, but allow me one question: when exactly occur the jagged letters? I tried some apps (including File Explorer 'Recent Programs') and had always antialiased letters.
I can't download cabs.
May be broken.
Can you upload it on rapidshare, I am getting this messege:
"Error: The content no longer seems to be available via MediaFire."
I just noticed that the files are gone? Maybe because MediaFire did maintenance yesterday! I'll reupload!
Hey guys,
I've created one of my pictures as per the screen resolution i.e., 480x854 but i am not able to use it as my wallpaper.. the damn thing asks me to crop the picture again... pls help..
The Picture should be 960x854 for the X10 and when the Screen with the Crop come then raise the square as big as the Wallpaper. Sorry for my English im from Austria
As Wolfbreak has said, the correct resolution 960x854. When you go to select the wallpaper, drag the square to a corner, then drag the corner of the square so it sits around the whole image, then it will fill the 3 screens.
I think you wanna know how to put a wallpaper without cropping.
I use a application called Wallr.

Its free.
Just put ur wallpapers in a folder and set your folder in config screen in notification bar on the application, so every time i click it picks an image.
this is not the straight forward method. but so far I didn't find an app that will let us pick any image on SD without other useless things.
Hello everyone.
I am currently working on a new home screen for my SGNote. My intention was to make a custom wallpaper from scratch, using the icons, fonts and images I desire and then adding hotspots for shortcuts using blank png images.
I ran into a little problem though, let me explain. I know that you can create "placeholder" images using blank.png image files, but as far as I know these files and hotspots can only conform to the different grid sizes, what I mean is that they can only scale horizontally or vertically within the aspect ratio of the grid. I hope I make myself clear, as it is kind of hard to explain through written word.
In any case, what I need to be able to do is create hotspots that vary in size, whether they be round or diagonal, or maybe even rectangles that do not conform to the grid.
I will try to exemplify through an image I've found.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now, lets say that I need to create rectangular hotspots for the panels under "STATIONS CONTACTS FOR:" or a rectangular one for "PRIMARY SYSTEMS TEMP". How would I go about doing that?
Anyway, I hope I made myself clear.
I thank you for your time and look forward to reading your answers.
Hey folks
Anyone else having some black dots/ink spots on their brand new Galaxy S7? I recognize this issue while watching movies on my phone at night...
This problem already exist on older AMOLED Display like the S3(old XDA thread-> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/galaxy-s3-black-ink-spots-help-t1715936/page4)
, but was solved after this generation. Sadly they seem to be back now!
Can you plz test your device and giving some feedback, if i just got bad luck or is it a common issue again.
Use following setup to test it:
- use the uploaded "grey" pic or any super dark/grey picture
- be in a dark room. you cant check it at daylight
- set display brightness to manual and get set it to minimum brightness
I'll also will upload a picture to show you how it looks on my phone. But be aware that this dot is arranged with paint, since none of my cams can capture this issue. Anyway position and size are correct.
