Hi all,
It's freezing in London, UK! Anyways...

I hate the o2 phone skin I am stuck with, I noticed once before after a hard reset there was a much nicer skin - im guessing it was the default WM5 skin...I know it was blue... Well - I want it back :) ..

So today's question from me..

How do I change my phone skin.. WITHOUT HARD RESET..

lol..its bloody freezin!..

here u go...speeded up my exec..and actually prefer the simple default skin anyway..use resco or any other registry editor

To set or remove the operator phone skin
The setting is at 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin'
The 'Enabled' DWORD value can be set to '1' to show the operator skin or '0' to show the default skin

wow that is so much faster! Thanks!

Although - I was talking about a completely different skin? Unusual!
Ahh well this one is just what I need - a phone.

Ta!

The problem with method is that you lose the button for video calls. Is there a way around it?

Thanks

look for the post called "a collection of hacks" or something on those lines. I remember seeing a cab to change the phone skin...

HI,

I tried the buttons and I cannot get video calls with the default phone skin (as explained above).

Thanks.

the most interesting about it actually is that it will give you 10 Megs of RAM...if you can live without the videocalling.

How exactly do you get that extra space?? Does it require a hard reset or can you delete the extra files? If the latter which are the correct files to delete?
