Today Screen Mods
 

Hey,

I've been lurking around here for a little while. I've learned alot, a whole lot. And I want to say thanks for eveyone who contributes to this great wealth of info.


I want to change the way my today screen looks, but I have NO IDEA how to go about that. I've gotten skins for my dialpad (zPhone) but thats as far as I've gotten.

Can someone give me a heads up?

wisbar advanced and wisbar desktop available at lakeridgesoftware.com but it isnt free, nor is it n00b friendly and quite frankly I dont think there are any good tutorials on actually appling themes. You will just have to check it out and see if thats what u want. ;) I personally dont use it because it does slow the overall performance of the ppc tho....

lol. Thanks.

I learn quickly. I'm very good with PC's but I've only been in the PPC world about a week and a half.

They slow the phone down? Considerably? Mah. Perhaps not then... is there anything I can do to change the look of the Today screen without causing it to be very slow?

yea its gonna slow it down a good bit, very noticeable. Im not sure I just stick to the basics of a good theme (most the time the default one) and a few neat little today plugins (really love the picture dial today plugin from the treo).

what is the piccture dial today plugin?

its located here. and looks like so....

oh. I know of this one. Brain fart!

Wideawake what do you think about photo contact pro or inesoft address book. I have spb diary that has pic's on the today screen. But was wanting something to make the pictures bigger when a call comes in. Any help would be appreciated. Software opinion or different program then these two.

Well I stick to bare basics of what I need with almost every app u can imagine on my minisd. But I havent tried either of those, so I couldnt say. As far as bigger contact pic on incoming call, I do believe PhotoContacts Pro does that if Im not mistaken..

They both do that. I just don't know if there is any opinions on how either these run on the 6700. photo contact pro is pricy but I have spb plus and diary running on my today screen and spb said they made updates to help with contact pro. So if anyone else knows I would very much appreciate there opinion. Runs slow, not worth the money, dsod using this. Thanks
