ok, yeh, maybe i should have explained that a little better.

you need the registry editor 'PHM Registry Editor', download it, run it from your pc, follow the onscreen instructions and it will install it onto your phone automatically. The actual program should then be accessable from the programs menu. once you run it the instructions should start to make sense (i hope) :wink:

Do you have to change all the registry back when you want to change skins :?: :?

Hi all.

I'm a newbie trying to make my Tanager work with me. :lol: Anyhow, I've a few questions. I've noticed that in fixing the Program menu, we only have the first 7 slots to change, the 8th slot goes to ActiveSync, the 9th for the "more...", then the rest are alphabetized as before, with any additional folders (ie, accessories and games) being last. Not too much of a problem, but that's my observation. My question is: does tweaking the Program Menu affect the speed of the phone in any way?

2. How do I get rid of the loud "ting" sound when I add a name to an SMS which plays even when the phone is on totally silent? Is this a registry tweak or just a simple setting?

Thanks guys!

1: The start menu order shouldn't have any effect on the phones overall speed

2: No, unfortunately not :lol:, only way to kill it is to turn the earpiece volume down as low as possible

Am I doing something wrong here
Have downloaded and installed PHM reg Editor, but phone is not allowing me to run it.
When trying, I am getting the message "Regedit" is not a valid Windows CE applicaition.

Phone is Updated (UK) and Decertified......

TIA

it's an error in the windows installer...
it thinks smartphone is a pocket pc and installs the wrong cab on the phone...
from the phm/regedit dir copy the file regedit.stnrg_arm.cab to the phone and execute it (hope that's the right filename, can't verify at the moment)

Are you sure you've downloaded the SmartPhone version (and not the PocketPC one...)?

Just had a look on the site http://www.phm.lu/Pr...tphone/RegEdit/
States "(if you get a "not a valid WinCE app" error message after installing from the MSI, try installing using the CAB file instead)"
So will try copying the cab over....
Here goes...

I am using the xbox home theme. Want to skin the call incoming and volume etc. I have the incall.gif, but not the others. Can someone post them. I believe there are photoshop templates or something, but i do not have photoshop. I just want the gif files, if that is ok.

Thanks

When i change the order of the program menu, not all of them change! Why is this. Call History.lnk has worked but if i do settings.lnk for example, it won't move up the menu.
Anyone know?

Hmmm I managed to install RegEdit, wouldn't run .. found the cab file and now the program runs *cheer*!

I wanted to change the icons on the home .. so I tried the tweak .. but must have done something wrong ... cause it's not changing the calendar to MSN Messenger (doublechecked spelling and position)

v1nn1e, i'll look into it m8
terminator2_uk, not if you have put them into folders, no, the icon will just be a folder icon (or should be at least)
MoRFLeZ, hmm, dunno much about the MRU, that aint one of my tweaks i'm afraid (gathered info from several places), i think other people have got it working, i'll look into it.

Thx midnight ... I would appreciate it!

Just to clarify .. we ARE talking about the 5 top icons on the original 'skin'! I'm very new at this *hehe* ... so just checking if I'm working on the right tweaks =).

Otherwise my SPV works perfectly.

Just tried out the tweak again, and it's still not working... maybe I have to chose a different home setting .. I'll fool around with it a bit...
