Serendipity VII Forum Sig - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

EDIT: I just made a Serendipity VII Sig, you can check it out in my SIG. If anyone wants it, I made a copy of it, without my Name in it. And I also Made a psd file of it. I will upload it to the bottom of this post. The PSD was to big to upload, so I put it in a .ZIP. So just extract and upload to your sig. Enjoy!

Themes?

Well, I have the HTC touch pro, and I'm bored of this theme. I use the Manilla Customizer, but that has gotten old as well. So this just gives me the final question, how do you install themes? I have downloaded a few, I just don't know how to use them.
Thanks.

Try this thread.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405749
Im not sure if you have the theme files and you wanna change them.. but if thats the case this app should help you.
Also, in future, before you ask a question, see if you can find something in the forum that might have already answered your question. I just searched for Change Theme in the Forum search and this link was the first hit..

Unfortunately, that program doesn't work. I have tried searching, but this stuff is complicated.
To go a little off topic, people say to extract some files in the windows directory of my phone. Do you know what exact directory that is? Sorry, if it sounds "noobish".
Thanks.

[SOLVED] .jar? can the extension be flashed?

Those honestly sound like viruses to me. Like the stuff you find on the internet, "oh you want this pic? Download xxx.jpg.exe." DONT DO IT.
find the ROM links on this forum
I echo xsnipuhx. XDA is known for developer mods and ROMs and thus is a reputable source. Best to get it here if possible unless you trust the source you've downloaded it from. If you don't know where it came from to begin with then its not worth the risk.
i get them here, but they are links to 4share and when i download form there the zips turn into .jar files. which are some java type. but i just changed the extension from .zip.jar to just .zip and they functioned just fine. thank you guys though. btw i have a macbook so dunno if that has anything to do with the functioning working correct. Just flashed to Drizzy MyTouchFlo, real nice.
Ah, that could be why then having a mac. Well it works ^_^
Could you please edit your thread title to include [SOLVED] so mods and others know? Thanks

I'd like it to be proof-read by somebody else. Not meaning to be disparaging to your possible skill, but a guide written with the same rampant disregard of English shown here is likely to lead to confusion. Guides and tutorials should be written mindful of the fact that exactness and clarity is required.
I would really like to know how to sign a ROM... mainly because I'd like to be able to modify existing ROMs with different apps and ringtones prior to flashing, which would be MUCH easier than having to do everything through Terminal after flashing.
It would help if there was a list of hero apps that would work when creating a normal G1 rom (not hero).

I'd like a section dealing with modifying-upgrading the kernel, ramdisk, and really anything dealing with the boot and recovery images (since I've already learned most of the workings of the system partition)

How to remove "PDAVIET Special Edition" ...

Hi,
Great Windows Mobile 6.5 ROMs provided by PDAVIET via haree, especially v26!
I have to admit that it was a little annoying to see the "PDAVIET Special Edition" every time I turned on my phone and I'm pretty sure some of you do too!
To make it a little easier to remove, I've attached my very first WM application, "SetVersion26.exe", which you can just extract and copy to your PDA.
Enjoy,
Spooky29
It works great. What bout regedit? pls let us know deleting which part of the regs can work as well. Thks
hi
it would have been more relevant if u put this in the PDV thread
now tell me how to use this and ill add the same to the first page of my thread thanks for this find

Great. Thanks for sharing. Haree is right though. Try to keep the site tidy. If we keep starting new threads, imagine what it would be like for future users. Thanks again.

Ok ... Sorry, still finding my way around this forum. I'll try and find the PDV thread.
Extract the "SetVersion26.exe" executable from the RAR archive on your XP/Vista/Win7 desktop.
Copy "SetVersion26.exe" to anywhere on your WinMo PDA (Memory or Storage Card).
Launch "SetVersion26.exe" it directly from WinMo via File Manager and follow the on-screen instructions.

My very first bootanimation.zip

I custom made a bootanimation.zip and its the first thing I have ever done to customize my mobile with android. Its not the best boot animation, not by far, but I was hoping to get some good constructive criticism on it. Please check it out and let me know what you think! I have tested it on my own personal mobile (Samsung Captivate running the Serendipity 5.1 ROM) and I had no problems other than some cosmetic issues of the animation itself.
I usually download the .zips and take a quick peek at the pics inside to see if I'm interested in installing the boot animation, but neither of my programs would let me do it with your .7z format.
I don't have or use that .zip program anymore and I'm curious if you could post up a screen shot or give a description to help people decide before downloading.
Thanks.

Sorry about the .7z, I couldn't get the regular .zip file under 8mb to upload it here it was 8.23... just my luck right? lol but here are some pics from the animation, the android man's body parts become green one by one. Hope you enjoy it. I have a torrent download link on reddit if you are interested.
For those who refuse to use 7zip for some reason.

It's kind of like having a BMW and an Audi in the driveway.
Do I reeeeally need to go buy a Mercedes Benz, or can I just go with what I've got?
Thanks for the link.
