Verizon Wireless Sync Plugin + WM6 Homescreen
 

So thanks to a combo of myself, Pony99CA (see his site) and Eko I can post this little guy.

It requires Octro and the Verizon Wireless Plugin which CAN be adapted for the Sprint Q.

The Verizon Wireless Plugin is neat b/c you can individually select each icon (email, SMS, Voicemail, Missed Call). Unfortunately for Sprint users the MMS portion (for now) is non-functional. Looks very "phonealarm-ish".
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Directions for Verizon WS:

1) Download zip below
2) Copy HomeScreenNotificationPlugin.dll to \Application Data\Home
3) Place regsvrce.exe in \Windows

Now go and run regsvrce.exe. In that field type in:

\Application Data\Home\HomeScreenNotificationPlugin.dll

And hit "OK'. That should register the .dll file in Windows.

Now you can add the plugin to any Homescreen you want:
<plugin clsid="{49BBBEA5-A2CC-4b92-B8D5-BC78CDEBB2D3}" name="Noitification" height="25"/>

And NO you cannot get rid of the middle "MMS" icon, so don't ask! :wink:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Directions for the Homescreen (crossbow_svppc_2.zip & Font-Gothic.zip):

1) Extract the .xml and .jpg to \Application Data\Home
2) Extract GOTHIC.TTF to \Windows\Fonts

Enjoy!

Cool! something to play with this coming weekend.

Thanks for posting Mal!

no prob! hope it all works, lol.

Gah, unless I'm missing something, the Missed Calls and VM icons do not work on the Sprint Q and there is no way to "reset" the counters besides a soft-rest, AFAIK :oops:

So I just redid the bottom part and put in a standard messaging plugin:

That's too bad. I never did get around to playing with the plugin, and I am glad I didn't install it. ;) I am working on a new home screen though.
