Modding The Wing w/ Stock T-Mobile Rom.

[itslinx]

Simple question here. I'm guessing i'm one of the very few people here (if not the only one) that hasn't done any hard-spl type modification to my Wing/Herald. So that means I am using the stock T-Mobile rom that came with the phone. My question is, what kind of useful (or just cool in general) .cab files work well with it?

So far I have the slide to unlock, pcshutXP, battery status, digital clock, keyboard skins, a custom black theme and more. I checked the thread with all the .cab files and found all those. Unfortunately, alot of them don't have descriptions so I didn't know what most of them did.

I'm not really looking for anything in particular except something cool that can give me the weather on my today screen and maybe a better alarm program.

Thanks in advance.

right now i have BatteryStatus with the clock extension, then under it HTC Home with weather, launcher, and profile options.

Black WM6.1 theme
Jivetalk - IM program, amazing
removed the tray launcher thing


i can't really think of anything else i've done, i spent forever trying to figure out batterystatus themes and how to get rid of the launch tray, so it seems like i spent a lot of time customizing, but i can't think of anything else.

If anything, I wanna get rid of the T-Zones in the launch tray. But I wanna keep the rest of the things down there. Any idea how? Also, can you give me the .cab file for the HTC Home with weather thing you use? What exactly is it, just weather that displays on your today page? Also, what's the Black WM6.1 theme look like? Any chance of a screen shot or something?

Thanks.

You can use any registry editor to do it. Just go to HKLM\Software\HTC\TrayApplet and delete both keys 4 and 5 there, then do soft-reset.

Yeah I figured I could use a registry editor to do it. Maybe i'll try that. Thanks.

Here's my today screen, you can see the black theme, batterystatus, and HTC Home.

of course the scroll bar and the launch tray wouldn't be there if the phone was unplugged. IM or PM me for cabs. AIM=wyldstallyns2589

I definitely wouldn't mind having mine look a little similar to yours, lol. Do me a favor and pm me the black theme and htc home. Battery status I already have. Yours might be different though? This is something you did with the stock tmobile rom though, right?

yeah i'm on the stock ROM

Cool, I pm'd you back. I also like how it has "Messaging" on the left side and "Contacts" on the other. That's what I originally wanted to do. I don't need the Calander on there since it's already on my today. A few things though. I use battery status. I don't see it on yours. Am I overlooking it or is yours different? Also, i'd prefer to keep the tray I have on the bottom. That's how I open Palringo and lock/unlock my phone. Unless there's another way do to it on yours. :D Are you able to change the icons that display on the Today screen?

Also, I have palringo. So I don't need JiveTalk.

And technically, I wouldn't lose any of my data on my phone when I use this right? Cause it's not really updating or anything?

right now im on the touch it 4.1 and i want to go back to the stock rom. ive used the RUU but it just goes to 1% and then the phone restarts and then the process comes up as an error. can anyone help?:(

BTW wyldstallyns2589, I was able to change the weather to fahrenheit. I don't know how I overlooked it, but I found it! Hit the weather tab, then click on the city. Then, click your city in the list and hit menu on the bottom right. From there, you go to weather options. From there, you'll see where you're able to change it from one to the other.

You've been a big help. Thanks alot, I mean it. My phone looks alot better than it did. Any idea if I can get the clock a big smaller? I like it big, but it being THAT big.. it takes up alot of room, lol.

No problem. the clock will not go any smaller, that is why i have switched to batterystatus for my clock.

and i had palringo, but jivetalk is so much better, i suggest you at least try it out. the only thing it doesn't do better than palringo is when your phone is on vibrate it doesn't vibrate
