hi all
does any one know what the file is called that locks the phone.
when selected from the quick list.
thanks in advance
Howdy,
For a while I too was wondering about that and therefore did a little researching;
"\Windows\ctlpnl.exe::cplmain 1"
to activate it.
Verify via;
Goto Windows directory and find wc_password.wcml
copy it to xxDirectory and rename it's extention to wc_password.txt
so you can view it with pword.exe cq PPC Word.
That took me 7 minutes to figure out.
Now I'm gonna make some of my own *.wcml files
Have fun
Modify Lock Screen
I want to remove the arrows and the caption "slide" from the attached png. Anyone knows how to? I have tried modifying png file as well as the cpr but failed.
Thanks

I downloaded a bunch of nice glass icon set and would like to replace the existing WM6 icons such as MEI and other programs. What is the easiest method of doing this? I did a search but found no results. Any help would be appreciate it.
To change icons in start menu you need to replace the icons on shortcuts by changing the *.lnk files in windows\start menu and its sub-folders.
Just add a ',' (coma) to the end of the text in the file followed by the name of the icon file. You could also look for apps that make shortcuts on PPC. There are even some free ones.
But if you want to change icons of today plugins and other system icons you need to unsign, res-edit then resign some DLLs and that's not an easy process.
Darn it, check this out i got these awsome icons i wanna use.

Ok so these are program icons. No problem there - just get a good graphics app to shrink them to 32x32 pixels and save as *.ico (windows icon format).
Check out GIMP, its free and supports many formats including *.ico and *.png
Then change the shortcuts in start menu.
Like I said before there are several apps (sorry, don't remember their names) that will let you do it easily.

The above is what I want to do, can you point me in that direction.
YES!!!!, I was able to copy the .png file to my storage card. Then using total commander, I was able to MOVE the file to the windows directory overwriting the original file. Then I did a soft reset to make sure it stuck, and it DID!!!
any chance you want to post the files that you used to overwrite the system files
thank you!
I`m intrested too! Thanks!

The best thing to do is search this forum on how to write your own shortcuts. It has been covered many times and all you need is notepad.
There was also a stand alone app by someone to make shortcuts.
I personally like my shortcut wizard in my common file dialog dll. You can download these
http://www.odeean.com/ORDsite004/Downloads/CommonDialogTester.exe
http://www.odeean.com/ORDsite004/Downloads/ORDcommonDialogDLL.dll
and put them in your program files directory. Once you navigate to the executable you wish to make a shortcut to you can hold down the stylus on it and select shortcut wizard. You can scan other executables or dlls on your device to find images for the icon of the shortcut. Once made, just re-name it to what you want and put it in your \windows\start menu\programs folder.
To get icons onto your device just look for any application you like the icons for. It can be a desktop app, it does not have to be a valid ppc app. Put the exe on your phone and my wizard will be able to scan it for icons. Just keep in mind that the exe will have to stay on your device for the image to still be available, so try find small ones.
edit:
I just realized you may want to change the icon for the actual folder that gets shown on the menu. If you do as I said above to make a shortcut to the programs folder you will be able to get any icon you want. open the .lnk in pword and remove the text [no arguments for folder shortcuts], I accidentally copy that text into folder shortcuts and it screws them up. You can't delete the actual folder "Programs" from that directory or else you loose the list of recently opened programs but the lnk to programs will open the desired folder.

Whats the PASSWORD?? n can u plz tell me as to how to use it??n where can i download more icons??
That looks like an icon overlay to me. With some work it might be doable but the whole os is limited to 15 such overlays, so it would be a bad idea to start hogging them.
hi,
i've just recently purchased the S710. I have been playing around with it to see if i could customize it. I've been trying to change one specific thing and have had no success.
Could anyone tell me how to change the sound for the slider to a specific mp3 file? or even wave! i've went into the phones folders and couldn't seem to find the location. I've found the ringtones but no success for the sliding sounds!
Thanks in advance!!!
Fab
Look in to \Windows in hidden files for
1_in.xxx
1_out.xxx
2_in.xxx
2_out.xxx
3_in.xxx
3_out.xxx
where .xxx is a extension I don`t remember (maybe .mp3 or .wav)
That`s your sliding sounds. Just overwrite 2 of this and you will hear changes in Sound Settings.
Good luck.
You can also always play around with the registry using a software such as
http://www.breaksoft.com/Blog/Utilities/2005/1/Mobile_Registry_Editor.aspx
and modify the location of the Sliding* registry values (located in HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/Sounds) to point to the correct sound file you want.
Thanks!
Just wanted to say thanks!
If anyone else is looking into this, i haven't tried replacing the files!
all i've done is to mimic the files that they had for sliding and used the registry editor to select these files!
in other words,
i made 3 different instances of the same file, renamed them as follows:
21.wav
21_in.wav
21_out.wav
(.mp3 didn't seem to work for me)
once that was done i went into the registry location pointed in the previous post, entered the file name. Exit regedit.
From that point everything worked out great!
I'm trying to find the config files that list where all the item are and where they're placed so I can port my portrait setup to landscape without having to arrange everything by hand. Is this possible? I assume it's just a text config file somewhere that says what the links are, what imgs are used and where they're located on the screen.
Thanks!
Hi all
for the last two days I was searching for a way to remove the win6.5 lockscreen's buttom curtain
so I was wondering if anyone knows a way to do this
thanx anyway for your time while reading this
well,thanks anyway
I found the solution myself
I edited a cpr file located in "lockscreen" folder in the root of windows
so if anyone wanted the same thing that I wanted
just replace the "LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr" in the "lockscreen" folder with my file wich I edited
hope you like it
