Dark email - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Alright well this may have already been answered. I saw something about this somewhere though I still couldn't find out how to do it.
What are the registry values for the email background.
Like the path to get to the values.
Because I know how to edit the registry so could someone tell me the path to get to the email background.
I know it's something like
local machine/control panel/theme and then something else....thanks in advance

Suspicious "browser message" texts...

Occassionally lately I have been receiving texts that are labelled "browser message" and contain a long string of numbers and letters as the body. Here is an example of the latest one in its entirety:
"010606ae8d01c9b4840105030045c6080c03622e77617070757368008703776170636c69636b2f2f6d612f333136313731372f363333373535393434000103415426542046726565205469703a20596f752063616e20636865636b20796f757220766f69636520706c616e206d696e757465732075736564202620736d73206d657373616765732073656e742077697468204d79204163636f756e742e20436c69636b204f7468657220746f207472792e20546f20656e6420546970732073656e642073746f7020746f2036383431000101"
Is this trying to remotely activate something or something? My Captivate is fully stock, all downloads from the market and are popular well-rated apps, no visitation of porn sites (that I know of) or other questionable websites, or even "blank links" that I have noticed. This is really bugging me that there is some sort of malware on my phone, although I don't see how there could be. If anyone on here is wiser than I am on these issues, could they please let me know what they heck these are, should I be worried, and what I can do...
Thanks to anyone who can advise me...

I should add that I see nothing abnormal on my bill, and do not seem to have any unwarranted data traffic. Just weird messages every so often...

It appears to be a text message from AT&T about your plan minutes used. At least a quick conversion from hex to text looks something like this:
"... AT&T Free T ...plan minutes used ...ccount. Click Other to t..."
Do you have some sort of notifications turned on with your account? Hopefully they aren't spam trying to get you to click somewhere.
Oh whew, okay good. Yes I my parents had that on the account, and when I separated my line it probably stayed on there. Thanks for converting it like that, can I ask how you did it, what program or software you used? I'm not completely a NOOB but I don't know anything about hex. Plus I would like to translate them in the future. I run Ubuntu, so if you know the name or the ppa of a good conversion tool that would be awesome.
Thanks again for converting that and responding!

I was using Notepad++ on my work Windows box. As for a similar Linux program, you could probably use gvim or maybe Okteta if you're using KDE. I just pasted and converted.
Okay, cool thanks. I am using GNOME, so gedit I guess. For the actual conversion I see several scripts and complicated commands, as well as some ASCII and multiple conversion programs, I will just experiment and figure out which works best. Thanks for your help with this.

I am not an android developer, but I *think* it is in this file

Did you look around forums for the answer to this before posting and reposting?
(it might not be in the DroidX forums because it very well could be the same answer for all Android devices)

Application ID editing?

So I have this app on my phone that created a phone ID for support and identification needs.
What I was wondering is if there was any way I could go into the apps database and change the ID tag... for uhh, reasons? Lol
Any ideas? And where would something like that be hidden. I tried doing a search for the name of the app in Root Explore and it brought up everything that had the name in it. But none of the files had my device ID in there.
No one has any ideas on this?

Changing Primary Windows Live Account

Is there a way for me to change my Windows Live account credentials without wiping my phone? I changed my login email address, and now my phones freaking out. I'm dev and interlop unlocked.

It's not supposed to be possible, no.
I've heard reports that you can change it by using the Supreme Shortcuts app to re-run the Out Of Box Experience, which will allow you to specify a new primary account. This is totally unsupported, though - for whatever reason (don't ask me...) Microsoft decided they really wanted to make you hard-reset before doing that.

follow the post will change the live account without reset your wp7
Thanks, that looks promising. Now that I have the provxml file, how do I actually load it on to the phone? I can't find anything about that.
Ahhh it's killing me that I'm so close. I can't figure out how to find the GUID I need for the provxml file, but I think I figured out how to load it.

Thanks, worked perfectly
Just out of interest, will apps bought with the original ID work if you change it to another?
about to give my old phone to a family member and wondering if there was a way to keep navigon on the phone for them!

[Q] Edit whatsapp messages time or change time to system time!

Hello,
Me and my gf used to chat a lot using whatsapp (she has an iphone)..i finally persuaded her to change to android but she wants the threads as she has them on her phone..i have tried everything and since you cant restore within different platforms the only good way i thought is if we did a "replay" of what we have sent by looking from the chat history from email..bit extreme but no other way..
The only problem is that the app doesnt let us use the time we wish (from system) because maybe it uses time from the web! Or maybe we can alter the time afterwards ..Any ideas??
Thnx

Not sure if there is any easier way but Whatsapp Xtract could be the answer since it support WA message extraction, you can get it here.
If you know some programming skill you can just play with the sqlite database, another way would be write some script to mass change the time on the chat history/email.
Good luck!
By the way, you probably want to change your title to include [Q] so that people know you are asking a question.
Thnx i will look it up! i was also thinkng about whatsapp on Bluestacks but then again the mod in time is still an issue

I just have a look on the message history sent through email by Whatsapp, it's just a simple plain text file is it? so much easy to process by script.

Have you tried Whatsapp Xtract? Well if you are talking about changing the date on email then a simple php script would do by mass converting the date.
But what can i see from the message history sent to email is that they have 'year' info skipped, so not sure what happen to messages sent/rcvd before current year, does it have year info? well, only if you have one sent/rcvd before 2012.
If only about changing the date on email maybe i can help, just give me some picture on how it looks like now and how it supposed to be.

Yes I have looked into this program..it all started from me wanting to export whatsapp chat into android from iphone! Then when I saw I cant do that I thought I could send my chat from scratch and change the date..but then again the app doesnt let you operate if you use incorrect time.BUT one thing I never thought is one simple and better solution: Why dont I avoid this app and its limitations and import my chat conversation from email to SMS with sms to text!! :thumbup:I will combine my sms and my whatsapp into one thread and job done! GOOD THING ANDROID SMS IS SO VERSATILE! .txt .csv. xls you name it. So happy right now thanx for your feedback anyway

As it turns out viber lets you send/receive msgs using the wrong date and time so you can "replicate" past conversations from different im..respect
