Specifically, I don't mind if it's a hidden setting, like the Configuration is now. with just Text. I wouldn't mind giving up the "Data" icon but I also don't think you have any "profile" icons to choose from, so that probably won't work. Or is there a way to just do a Text version, like we use to do with the Smartphone homescreens?

(2) There's a hidden navigation item: Dialer

How do I disable that? I don't see it in the config file.

y not just make a few images that are just text set onto the background you set as transparent (therefore you would only see the text?

then just follow these to assign them

Image_Profile1 - Home profile (set attribute â€˜tâ€™ to use text names instead of graphics
on the skin, other Image_Profile tags are then ignored!)
Image_Profile2 - Work profile
Image_Profile3 - Meeting profile
Image_Profile4 - Night profile
Image_Profile5 - Loud profile
Image_Profile6 - Car profile
Image_Profile7 - Flight profile

Now that i read it it might just have that feature built in if you assign it 't' instead of an image file

as far as the other thing i dont see it in there either

Well I think it is about time I begin figuring out how to edit profiles. I'll give it a shot and let you guys know how badly I mess up, or how well I finish. Cheers!

wow got the profile question right. The only thing is you will need to download the newest beta to get the text as profiles to work correctly (have not tried personally yet). Their is a bug in the version I posted, not user error like I thought in my original post.

With the dialer, that is the default setting/behavior in PA. You can change it to something else by using Nav_Default.

Thanks wowthatisrandom and budney.

I'll see if this weekend or sometime I can work on it.

BTW, I think the latest beta is technically the released version 1.61.1 (#176)

Nice, I'm glad Bruce updated the cab on the home page. The Profiles as Text are working for me. Also another new feature is working now, App_Link. You can have a pop up list of favorite programs (9) you can launch. Or you can have individual icons displayed for each program, which reminds me of rltoday.

I just want Four glass icons on a set line like you did at the top.

SMS, Missed Calls, Voicemail, and Bluetooth. If you can do that for me I would greatly appreciate it!!!

Here you go!

Hey Budney,

I looked through the skn file and read a little with the skinning guide and still am useless. I would like to change the missed call icon to direct me to call log and not just missed calls. If that's possible let me know how to fix it!

Sorry but that is the way phone alarm works, no way to change it that I know of. Just a FYI when you have select PA click the center of the d-pad. This will bring up a list of missed, incomming, out going, dialed numbers.

budney couldnt you technically cheat... make the image for missed calls transparent and set the app link in the exact same spot with the icon for missed calls and that would work right?

workaround but should work

I didn't think of that. It would work if the call log is a .lnk or .exe. I tried to search for it but couldn't find it.
