Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Hey all!

New to the forum and new to WinMo devices.

Honestly I don't even know how to start with this because I know nothing of windows devices so I need a lot of guidance.

Ok, here's initially what I am interested in doing...

First off, I was wondering if theres a way to change the clock to a black background. And if you can get rid of the verizon banner.

Also, I have NO idea how to get all these different software downloads to my phone. Do you just download it to your computer then drag and drop to a folder in the phone? For example sktools or something like that.

I know I want to get rid of all this verizon v-cast stuff thats on here to free up some memory.

I've looked at some threads and i kind of know what i want to be on my phone, the real problem is i dont know how to do that yet...

Well thanks everyone and glad to be a member!

Not sure about the clock, i know its possible just can't find the thread. Verizon banner I don't think you can get rid of just yet

To completely remove all the verizon apps a custom rom is required. Nobody has made a hardSPL for the imagio yet though. But for the time being this will help:

Yup, you can just copy and paste it anywhere on the phone, then open file explorer on the phone and run the cab file.

Welcome to winmo!

Thanks a lot!

Also, is the Imagio compatible with a microSDHC card?

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Yes it is

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

hmmm... because the phone isn't recognizing it

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Could be a problem with your phone. What is your card formatted as and what class is it?

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Card is not formatted and its class 4.

Also, can you remove the time stamp in text messages? And can you remove the Call History and Calendar from the Home screen?

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

...and remove vibrate when using keyboard

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

format the card to fat 32 and start doing some reading. most of your questions are answered on the first three pages of this section of the forum..

Why buy a feature rich phone to remove all the features???
You coulda bought a Razor

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

JKlu87 - welcome to winmo. the Imagio is running HTC's Touchflo "User Interface" on top of the Windows Mobile 6.5 OS. Considering the customizations you are talking about, you might consider a 3rd party launcher to replace TouchFlo. take some time to look at SPB Mobile Shell or Launcher X; there many other ones too that allow full customization of the "home" screen.

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

What?

I don't think of v-cast anything as a feature. And is vibrate keyboard a feature?

I bought it to mod the phone the way I want it. I paid money for a platform with features I may want and some I don't.

I don't understand your comment since this forum is about removing and adding features to the phone. and understanding the inner workings.

I hope your phone is completely stock otherwise your a hypocrite.

Thanks for the warm welcoming

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Thanks!! Since I just got my phone today I am discovering this programs. I just know that the TP2 home screens clock has a black background so i wasn't sure if you could change the imagio's clock.

I've done some registry edits to get rid of some of the stuff I don't want already.

I'm excited to learn about this phone and WinMo!

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

To get rid of the Verizon banner look in the software forum for Personalizer. It will allow you to change the Verizon banner to any thing you want.

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Anybody know how to get rid of the timestamp in text messages, or vibrate keys when typing?

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

nevermind on the vibrate keys... i found it.

start-->all settings-->personal-->input-->input methods options box-->vibrate when keys are pressed

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

yes read up on the forums most of your questions have answers! Have fun with your new phone... so much you can do and change!

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

So can WinMo sync up to like Windows Media player on my computer so i can remotely control my files. (Like what the iphone does with itunes). I know Windows media player is installed on my phone but i haven't used it or explored it yet.

Basically, I want to browse my files and start/stop music from my phone.

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Can't seem to find it, do you have a link?

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

I am also new to Windows Mobile and smart phones in general. What are some apps that everyone is using? Just curious how to get the most out of my phone.

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Unfortunately, that isn't going to get rid of the VZW icon on the right-hand side of the banner :(

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Thats what I really wanted to get rid of

Re: Completely new to WM and just got the Imagio
 

Here is a blank logo - empty

It works I just tried it. Just copy the file to the windows directory with total commander or resco not standard file explorer. I also included the original in the zip if you want to go back.
