Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

On the sense 2.5 internet tab you have the nice internet launch browser icon and below that 2 "hot links" to whatever sites you want. "slide" up and you get some more.

is there anyway to REMOVE the little previews from these hot links and make them JUST buttons with the name in it? not only would it look cleaner but there would be room for 6 them instead of 2 and having having to slide for more.

Yes, go back to the standard manila TouchFlo3D. ;)

But seriously, there may be a way to disable this in the registry. :dontknow:

ahh but I really LIKE the 2.5 and my cookie home tab :-)

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

so no way to do this?

The thumbnails you see are stored in \Windows\Thumbnails\
Copy the files off of your phone and onto your computer.

Now you can take a webpage logo for example and save the image as the same file name that the thumbnail is.
Copy back to your phone and softreset.

You get something like this.. .

thats a greaet idea and I will probable do that as a temp measure alas does not solve the primary problem. I want to reclaim the screen space they are consuming. :=)

Replace them with blank transparent PNGs then use the mod on my website to remove the frames. You will only be left with the text below them.

Just copy the 2 manila files into your windows folder and soft-reset. Be sure to make backup copies of the 2 default manila files before coping these over. That way, if for any reason it doesn't work, you can fix. Let me know if you'd like a ss of my internet tab.http://a.imageshack.us/img185/5396/p...phiaeagles.png

Brent - alas does not resolve the SPACE consumption issue :-)

Inando - yes please. a screenie would be great!

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

Sure thing. Here ya go..

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

yeah thats not what I want. Hang on I will get a screen and edit it to show what I want.

there you go. THAT is what I want. Just the buttons. I would also love to get rid of the gray bar behind the google search bar and even make it a little transparent if i can and get rid of the grey bar with the word internet all together :-)

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

Lemme work on that.
Do you want the seach bar there at all?
I am sure I can remove it if you want..

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

Here is the cab i used to make the search bar background fully transparent..

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

yeah I do use the search bar just want the background transparent (trying out that cab now) and if possible the search bar semi transparent but thats not critical.

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

Try this thread. There are a ton of cabs made for hd2 that work on our devices(sense2.5). you'll find one that'll give you 50 percent transparency your asking for and a few other cabs that deal with the internet tab.

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

thanks man. the 50% stuff is for the background not the actual search bar. your transparent tweak worked a treat! love it.

Bookmarking that thread though lots of neat stuff in their.

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

Was looking into this, and even if I get rid of all the graphics, you won't gain any screen space.
The text won't be like the picture you showed. They will be spaced as they had been, but without any images.

Do get what you are after is more than just image editing and beyond my scope of editing knowledge.

Re: Remove web preview from internet tab favorites?
 

I figured but was hoping maybe someone had figured it out. Its really not a big deal - just a "wish I could" kind of thing :-)
