A question about skinning call history and pocket outlook

Hello to all,
I am having a hard time reading the white call history page (see attached pic below) and was wondering how I can skin this? I'm not sure what this program is called so I couldn't find any skins searching
Also wondering if there is a way to skin pocket outlook, I really need a black background with white lettering to read comfortably with my visual impairment
Thanks for helping a blind guy out!
here is a pic of what I am talking about

They do alot of skinning over on this thread but I'm not sure if they'll have what you're looking for.
Thanks for the reply, I will check it out and report back

A good EBook reader

I've searched a lot but still haven't found any software suitable for my needs.
It should have Bookmarking ability and also should have finger scrolling. It should have reasonable amount of options (font size tweaking etc.). Night reading (Black background white font) option would be a plus.
Any recommendations? Thanks
Have you tried MobiPocket? It doesn't have finger scolling, but you can turn forward or back a page by tapping on right or left half of the screen.
I think it has every other feature your looking for, and is very easy to use, especially if used in conjunction with the desktop app.
Hmm, it is pretty good. I'm missing finger scrolling though. Also, it doesn't really adapt to the screen really well in WM6.5.x (because of the bottom bar).
Any other suggestions?

True Full Screen viewing in PDF ?

Good day all,
i have searched the forums thoroughly and have been unable to find an answer.
I was looking for the best reader and after seeing allreader and mobipocket, i actually dont mind adobe pdf and using my finger to pull the pages down.
however, my query is if there is a hack/fix to allow true fullscreen for viewing, removing the bottom bar as well (as this bar is still there in fullscreen mode)
What would also be useful is if it were able to program the vol up and vol down buttons for scrolling
Now what are the odds?? Half an hour ago I was looking for absolutely the same thing with a friend of mine. We weren't able to find anything similar. I would appreciate some help as well!
I am looking the same thing
Yeah, me too.
We all are, lol
i gave up searching for a working pdf reader, i just convert them to .txt files and open them with alreader...
but if someody finds a real pdf reader I'll kiss his shoes
comicreader mobi has real fullscreen support but it doesn't support pdf yet. you have to convert them to cbz or cbr files (make images from each pdf page, add them to a zip and rename to cbz or to a rar and rename to cbr).
You can disable the toolbar in full screen mode via registry. It looks really good once disabled. I am on the train now, so cannot remember the keys but will reply again with the keys unless somebody else posts before me.
i will begin my search again tonight to find one.
i tried the allreader way before posting, and the tap bottom of the screen to turn pages is very nice. I will play with font size etc and see ho wi feel about that.
however it would be so easy to read pdf's from emails etc without converting if i could get the full screen reader.
don't get me wrong, its very usable as is, but such a waste of screen real estate while reading the pdf

that would be amazing.
looking forward to seeing the registry hack
People always knock wm, but you gotta love the tweaking you can do.
There you go:
HKCU/Software/Adobe/AdobeReaderLE.25/KeepToolbarInFullScreen
From "1" to "0"
-->Softreset
On Adobe Reader-->Tools-->View-->Full Screen
Double Tap to exit fullscreen.

Great tip. Thanks a lot!
here you go
VolDpad: Use the volume buttons as a d-pad
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=552947
good job pal, thanks a lot
hmmm
itsa bit tedious to click the volume button that often as it only scrolls 3 lines per click.
anyways to make it scroll a whole page, or better yet, enable kinetic scrolling in pdf or enable that feature in allread that allows you to change pages by tapping the bottom right part of the screen?
thanks for all the help
Trash the LE Reader and search for the Adobe Reader for PocketPc 2.0 recompiled version for ARM processors. I hope this is legal, because Adobe seems to hide this version somehow. It has:
-Reflow
-Full Screen
-Tap to Scroll
I use this now for several years and it is still the best.

Is it this: click here ?
I don't get the part with "ARM processors"
Yes this is the right version. I installed this one (german version) and it didn't work on my HD2. After a longer search I found a version recompiled for ARM processors and that version worked fine. I recommend you try this one first and I will look if I find a link to the other version.^^
EDIT: OOOOPS sorry, I was wrong with the recompiled version. It was TCPMP recomp for ARM. Acrobat reader 2.0 should work fine.

Can anyone test this for me using WP7's web browser?

My Focus was just sent in for replacement and I just found out that, for a science course I'm taking this semester, I can use a smartphone's web browser instead of one of those overly expensive 'clickers' they usually force you to buy.
So can anyone go to the link below using the WP7 web browser and follow the instructions on the page?
Here's the test page link: www.rwpoll.com/test.aspx All you have to do is go to the page and follow the instructions. It won't take any longer than 2 minutes. It's from ResponseWare, the company that provides those 'clickers' and it's a test page to see if the web browser is properly displaying all of the info.
If you're suspicious, here's a pic of what the site should look like and you can Google it yourself if you like:
http://i52.tinypic.com/52zvpt.jpg
At the end of the first page you should see a button that says 'Page Appears Correctly' and 'Page Not Appearing Correctly' so click on the one that applies to you. Then there will be this page where it tests if the browser can auto refresh and do other things. After that click on the button that says 'AutoRefresh Supported' and then you should be at the results page. Here's two links to two sample pics of what the page should look like.
http://i54.tinypic.com/2npxef.jpg
http://i56.tinypic.com/16ke3bq.jpg
Then just tell me the results. I know this is inconvenient, but this would be a HUGE help. I'd like to avoid paying $40 just for a dumb piece of plastic when I can pay half price to use it on the phone instead! Thank you in advance if you do this, you're helping out a broke college student!
Told me CSS is not fully supported. Buttons appeared but the text colors were not as they were described (white and green text)
Sent from my HD7 using Board Express

Yeah the text colors didn't work on the Desktop IE, Chrome, or Firefox either so I guess you can ignore that. So you were also able to get to the second page and test the Autorefresh?
Can anyone else try this? nrfitchett4 didn't really say if the test succeeded or not.
Please?! I NEED to know this for sure by tonight!
nrfitchett4 is correct. in windows phone you cannot enable/disable the css file retrieving. so therefore, it should always be there. so "Page Not Appearing Correctly" would be what i would click. the buttons are all gray background with black text.

Yes but I think it may be a problem with their test site. I tried out the site on the desktop IE8, Firefox, and Chrome and neither one gave the correct color scheme. So try using the 'Page Appears Correctly' because I did that and it let me complete the test.
Buttons all looked the same, auto refresh worked, and css passed.
Worked on my HD7 except for the green and white button test...

Thanks for taking the time to do the test guys! It looks like everything should work out. Seriously, THANK YOU!

[Q] Design and Ads Problem

Hi everyone,
first of all: I like the new design of the XDA website (and intro of XDA TV).
I hoped to find a forum for questi0ons about the forum itself without any device background so I'm not sure if this thread fits here.
Attached threre is a screenshot of my screen at work. I'm using IE 8. Threre is no adblocking or anything.
1. The quotes are not correctly shown and
2. the ads on the left side are covering a lot of space
I guess the spaceproblem wouldnt be an issue if my screen was 16:9 but on 4:3 its kinda annoying.
