Following on from the runaway success of my SPV E650 de-Brand, I am now preparing the same for the MDA Vario III

I'll be updating versions as I de-Brand various bits, but since you're an impatient lot, I figured i'd get SOMETHING out as quick as I could... so here is version 0.1

Edit: Version 0.3 already online!

Included in version 0.3

- HTC Home plugin 'Launcher' pinkness replaced with the standard blue
- HTC Home plugin 'Profile' pinkness replaced with the standard blue
- Comm Manager pinkness replaced with the standard blue
- 'wnw' button reverted to standard Pocket IE, regular Pocket IE icon displayed in Settings -> Buttons applet
- Regular Camera icon displayed in Settings -> Camera applet
- Removed custom Start Menu ordering

To follow in future revisions

- Revert Start Menu layout and icons to standard

If you find any more branding that needs sorting, reply here

To install, run attached CAB on device. Version 0.1/0.2 users, just install this new version over the top.

hi good post
sorry i did'nt get back to you Yes i do live in norwich
NR6 North norwich the signal here is fine,
not sure when i go about my work in the surrounding area's
walsham, bacton, yarmouth, and thetord,
i only say this because of transfering the number people have said "good luck contacting people you will need it"
not sure if it's BS find out monday i guess?
maybe a code from T-Mobile to sim free the phone (Just Incase)

[PaulOBrien]

I vote BS

Sadly people still think T-Mo coverage is like it was 'in the old days'...

P

[PaulOBrien]

I've been to all of those places and never recalled having signal probs!

It's not working for me...(installation was unsucessful)

would it be because I have already done the start menu ordering and W n W button myself??

[PaulOBrien]

Shouldn't make a difference mandt!

Version 0.2 now online with Comm Manager de-Brand.

Its coming up as a .php file for me.

downloading from my vario, so i cant change the file extension.

Oh any chance of adding the GPS Camera regedit?

That's not a de-Brand, that's a tweak, so is in the tweak pack

P

[rickyburke]

Ah cool, Ive got the debrand now, emailed it to myself from my work pc.

Thing is, in the tweak pack, some of that has already been coverd by the T-Mobile customisation.

Does it cause any conflicts installing over the top of the Vario III?

[PaulOBrien]

Nope!

[rickyburke]

Nice, installing now.

Its the weekend!!!!!!!!!!

Woohoo!

[mandt]

Still no good, dunno what's going on.....installed loads of other bits

will have a play some more, need to get rid of the pink and feel all manly again

[Shuflie]

Downloaded as a index.php for me too using PIE on my Vario III, a quick trip into total commander (the first thing I installed on the phone when I got it) and that was fixed and the cab installed. The HTC Home plugin looks so much better in the original colours.

Installed fine, but 'Ringer' icon in comm panel still comes up pink for me

[LeeJS1]

And the Web n Walk button now comes up with the error "Error starting \windows\start menu\messages\messaging.lnk"
WnW doesn't appear in the buttons config page any more but the IE button does and changing that has no effect.

Guys, just ordered my Vario via T-Mobile so doing some prep work in advance

Paul, can I do these tweaks on my Mac G5? Or do I need access to a PC?

Also, being totally IT illiterate, are these tweaks also know as a "de-brand"? Or is the de-brand totally different?

OK, this was actually to do with AEButton and not this, but the ringer icon is still pink!

Pinned! Getting somewhat lost amongst the other posts here. Don't forget to update this thread with the latest versions of your de-brander rather than starting a new one... mmmkay!

The only time I find the ringer icon is pink is when it is set to off. It is blue when it is on and when set to vibrate on my Vario III after installing the tweak pack.
