Thats a good question... I also changed every Nokia picture I found but there is still the Nokia logo at the startup...

imo that is much deeper in the system. so you wont find the picture because it is somewhere in bootloader or nearby, all the files are found much later after partitions are mounted.

hi

Actually I hesitate to create a small shellscript for moving the pictures in right place and backing-up before... but I forgot :/

Will probably do it some time later... (as soon as I've free time ;) )

edit: btw thanks for the screenshot/vids for my pacman unlock screen ;)

WoW!!

My eye's have just stopped bleeding reading this EPIC thread.

Theres a lot of cool and interesting mods available, but utilising a thread to share idea's and file's is a nightmare to read, plus every other response is a question on how to use xterminal to install and make changes to the N900 filesystem.

Wouldn't as application (soft of like Winterboard for jailbroken iPhones) be better for managing and sharing these mods, I would love to try some of the stuff in this thread, but am very rarely in the mood to venture into xterminal territory.

Like most of the n00b's who joined the Maemo5 revolution I have little programming experience and much prefer an all-in-one solution, but I think on this occasion an application for the N900 that would manage and install these mods would benefit everybody..

:)

For the script automating the setup of lockscreen, check here : http://pastebin.org/83193
BUT, you're using this script at YOUR OWN RISKS!!!
I checked with dummy-dirs for testing purposes, but as I haven't my phone with me atm (shame on me), I couldn't test on my phone.
As I haven't a lot of time I won't be able to provide any support, or read whining post about "you broke my phone"/whatever

If you want to improve/modify/re-use this script, feel free to ;)
enjoy.

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 
mhm... i did following:

sudo gainroot
mkdir MyDocs/dump
cp /etc/share/themes/$theme_name/images/* MyDocs/dump/

there you have access to these copies in mass storage mode.
you can look at the names and which icons/images are behind.
of course you can look at the dimensions and edit/change the picture too :)

it's quite cool to see that you can change nearly every single icon/image on the n900. ^^

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 
Anyone know where this animation/file is:

When you close a window there's a some starts/puff of smoke.


I thought a little mushroom cloud would be cool.

/usr/share/themes/YOURTHEME/images/wmWhiteSparkle.png

It is a single image of a little star, of which multiples are displayed during the window close animation. They animate in an expanding spiral. So, if you replaced it with a little mushroom cloud, you would see half a dozen little mushrooms clouds in an expanding spiral as a window closes. I tried replacing the star with different shapes, but ended up just eliminating the effect altogether by making wmWhiteSparkle.png a transparent image. Now I just see the window zoom/close and fade away without any sparkle at the end. Its actually pretty nice.

i believe that this is correct, the nokia start-up image ( or bootsplash as it would be called) is referenced in the boot loader configuration, simply replacing the file with another file of the same name would not(?) work, it would be similarly as disasterous as renaming your lilo boot splash or grub boot splash, although i think that if the referenced boot splash is not found during the re-installation of the bootloader, the bootloader simply comments it out. again this is all as far as i know, given my experience with linux across multiple distrobutions. if some one knows more, than by all means please correct me.

ha ha like the smog over the boro!:D
(only joking mate! being from sunderland i had to stick that one in!):)
im hoping that theres a file somewhere that controls the size and speed and stuff for the sparkle, cos i like them and want them to be bigger;)

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 
hehe

Well you could just change the file to show 4 stars rather than the 1.

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 
I have a Metal Gear Solid theme going on my N900. I've replaced the sparkle for a small white exclamation mark, looks pretty cool. Modded all the sounds too, it's all MGS for me baby!!! :D

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 
I'm thinking, is there any way of making the N900 play a wav/mp3 when opening/closing the slider. I had this function on my N95 back in the day. Would be cool too implement it on the new phone...

I don't have the skills to do it myself but how about a battery indicator that uses the little faces from the Doom game? As his health deterioriates, his face looks worse.

That would be a cool battery indicator.

you have to install "Simple FMTX desktop widget" via-appmanager.
after installation the widget is available over the "add widget" button in the desktop-menu :)

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 
Is there a program where i can look into the root folder like a file manager and just edit files from there rather than through the Xterminal? You can't see it through USB connect with your PC either...which kind of suck.

you can set up a SSH connection for showing the filesystem over the network (wifi and/or usb).

then there is mc (midnight commander) and another file manager app which is mentioned in this thread a few times but i don't remember the name. (won't search for it because mc should be the better solution ^^)

I tried that for fun but the icons are really small... but anyway.. here it is :D

the one supposed to be in 48x48 are in fact 54x61 but they are well showed.

http://www.mediafire.com/?ointmth4t5o



needless to say how to do but in case..

Code:
$ root
make backup!

Code:
$ cp /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/statusarea_ba* /home/user/MyDocs/backupbattery48x48/
$ cp /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/statusarea_b* /home/user/MyDocs/backupbatteryscalable/
Put the new battery icons

Code:
$ cp /home/user/MyDocs/doombatt48x48/* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/
$ cp /home/user/MyDocs/doombattscalable/* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/
$ reboot
A better way to do it suggested by TomJ here

-customized operator name
