Anyone know where to grab the colored Calendar (and Call History) icons for the main page. How about enabling them? I'd also love to get as many other colored icons as possible, like we did for 2.0. TIA.

SO i have a question, on the first page there are a ton of different cabs to download. i'm a newbie, so i'm still learning as i go. so you have to download and install all the different listed cabs in order for me to get the 2.5 UI on my imagio? maybe i'm missing the info on what each cab does.... there are alot. let me know which direction i should start for my downloading and installing.
thanks

No these are just tweaks once you have 2.5 installed. To install 2.5 go here and follow the directions. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=108707

So, How do I know what system I am using? I checked my TouchFlo3D 'About' screen, and it says 2.0.38937.1. Am I to assume this is 2.0, not 2.5? And I just got my phone a few days ago, and really love the phone. I even added Tcruz's mega cab for all the color, and the performance programs. How much better is 2.5? Also, there are over 100 pages on this subject, am I looking at a hard reset?

That is correct, you have 2.0. You don't have to hard reset to install 2.5, but I would advise it (that way nothing else previously installed interferes with it). You can find the cab HERE
Just follow all the directions on the first post and you should be good to go. It is a large cab and it takes around 30 min to install. I personally like 2.5 better, it has full screen animated weather, home page short cuts, eReader, document reader and the over all look is better. Give it a shot, if you don't like it, you can always hard reset back to 2.0.

I will see about installing that today. Thanks for the quick reply, I hit the button for ya! One other thing, I installed Swype yesterday and was hooked on its ease of use, and outstanding performance, will that work on the 2.5 CAB?

Yeah, I have Swype running on my device now and haven't had any problems. You will need to install an IM selector in order for it to be the default KB after a soft reset. Let me know what you think after you have it up and running.

One other thing as well, I remember attempting to install Net 3.5 but my system said that I had a newer version installed, and checking my log, it says instillation stopped as newer version detected. How do I find my version, and if it is a newer version, do I have to downgrade in order to install 2.5?

Before you install Sense 2.5 (which I recommend now thanks to all the hard work the gurus put into making it work great in build 2012), you should flash your phone with the newest ROM from VZW. You can find all the info and files in the Upgrades section at the very top of this forum. Then hard reset, then follow the instructions to install 2.5. All the files needed are in the thread including the .net that will work for ya. Good luck and enjoy!
