blanking on the name of the file, but it is a jpg in the windows directory. There will be two with identical beginnings but one ends 800x480 and the other ends 480x800.

One is the portrait background th other is the landscape background. You will need to edit the portrait one on your computer to create a landscape version and then replace the landscape file on the phone.

I found the two JPGs you mentioned, (named RunCC_default_bg_480_800.jpg) but editing and renaming the portrait one for landscape (followed by a soft reset) didn't work. I'm still getting what appears to be parts of 2 different pictures (the dartboard and black background mix). It must have something to do with the issue Adrianh85 mentions below.

I noticed that several postings back you mentioned you're working on the email scrolling issue. I wasn't trying to be pushy -- I was just adding my $0.02. This truly is an excellent ROM and I'm loving it.

u will have a hard time finding it because its a manila file that u are trying to change! the landscape wallpaper is made up from like 3-4 different manila files and so far i havent compiled them correctly to have a complete landscape pic!! the dart board was from my first failed attempt to correct the problem and the current wallpaper was my second attempt!!

some issues I am having that I want to see is isolated to me

1. clicking on links in the twitter tab does nothing, it will not goto the web link

2. launching opera, it will fire up, I enter a web page and half the time it crashes. this happened 3 consecutive times trying to view the sense gtx thread on wmpowerusers.com

3. sometimes my sms tab will count new messages and it will show 60 or so new texts on the tab, restarting it goes back to zero

also, anyway to cook in 4 quick link at least 12 quick links? I think the smaller icons would be better because they are all a little distorted at normal size

Still running this after trying a few others

thanks

1. let me sign up for a twitter account so i can test/debug

2. i have never had opera problems with my rom. what are u installing and could it be the website?

3 this is done so no one will have phantom sms if u go into the default winmo sms client it will show ur unread sms/mms as them being in bold

and who makes the 4x3 quick links manila files if u know so i can add that in my next update?

Don't use twitter and have not had Opera or SMS issues : (
One thing I did notice that I don't think is particular to this rom though is:
If I get a txt message and click the top notification bar, the notifications popup and I see that I have a new txt but finger clicking the txt notification doesn't bring up the txt as I would suspect it should. Interestingly enough, finger clicking on a new email or reminder works as expected. I'm on Sprint and think this may be a known Sense issue. Just figured I'd mention it in case someone knows of a fix.

As I'm typing this I just realized something wonderful. I don't think I've reset my phone for like 4 days. whoa. New record!!!
