Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Sorry I am newbie at this. Will not make you throw something referred in the terminal. I have an issue, but I still have to correct that fault.

To make transparent backgrounds just ought to take back opacity in question.

Eh the original here:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10945035/Pho...Background.png


And here the changed

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10945035/Pho...ackground1.png



But bear in mind that they are 2 files:

Normal and pressed

So with the file in question, I have set the example of the calendar widget

The files in question are in / usr / share / themes / nameoftheme / images /

MediaPlayerApplet
RSSApplet
WebShortcutAppletBackground

Others know where they are.

awesome !

please share the font too :D

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

I don't want the desktop background to be transparent. I want my widgets to be transparent.
Is this possible and if yes how?

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

My widgets are transparent, i installed Theme Customizer from devels and set widget opacity to 0

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Tell me you want a transparent widget?



But the theme customizer does not clear some widgets :

If you look at the pictures, the ConnectNow not transparent, nor Foreca, ip adress not personal and not irreco

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

for me foreca is transparent

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

transparency on foreca looks good :) could you please share the path to the background file or your file maybe ?

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

It only affects on built-in widgets that are themeable, that's why the app is called THEME customizer ;)

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

I tried the method from Theme Customizer and it works but only for the built-in widgets as you mentioned.

This is exactly what I was looking for but now how do I get this to work on the other widgets like ConnectNow, DCE, ip address and personal data monitor widgets?

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

To make it easier i've included all my mods in this post.

You will find:-
- 3 Meego theme wallpapers
- 2 Meego fonts
- Primary Meego App Logos

As suggest earlier, works best when using Pleego theme (by D-livil). His colours and other icons are superb!

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Hey jaeezzy. After you posted this question, I was curious as to where this icon was stored too. I know that D4rKlar has already answered this question correctly (of course) for you, and you probably already have it sorted from that by now, but I thought I would just show you that when I changed the icon under-

usr/share/icons/hicolor/18x18/hildon/general_alarm_on

-It changed the icon that you wanted. It should be here regardless of theme I think. Anyway, here's a screenshot just to show you.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Hey your desktop looks great. What is that data plan monitor widget? And could you share that HTC png?

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Some yes, some no.
I have been trying to get the maker of the Personal IP and Personal Dataplan monitor to rebuild their widgets with transparent backgrounds for me but they have not replied to my pm's. I understand they might be busy doing other things.
From what I have found out, it is something which has to coded into the widget prior to build. There is no png image to edit to make them clear.

Anyway, I went ahead and photoshopped Nicolai's ConnectNow widget icons so they had a transparent background. I actually di them some time ago and they might be available in an older post.

If you want them you can download them.

Edit**
They go in usr/share/icons/hicolor/96x96/hildon

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Hey etuoyo. Glad you like it. The widget is called 'Personal Dataplan Monitor' and it is in the repos.Also, here is the HTC png as requested and a couple extra in the zip.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

How to use those icons (App logos)? Can you help me how?

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

You need root access to your phones files. If you plan on modifying other parts of the phone, the easiest and prob most convenient way is to use WinScp on your PC and SSH setup on the N900. Google if you need directions.

Once you can see your root directory you want to replace the icons from this directory:

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/hildon

If you drag and drop the icons from my post they should just replace the original so best to first make a copy of the whole folder named "hildon". This way you can go back to originals when you get bored/change your mind etc.

Let me know if you need further clarification.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Shouldn't the direcotry be:
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/hildon
?

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

There is a black & white theme in the ovi store. check it out it might be what you're looking for.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Unless he's using a theme with its own images, like black plastic, in which case it'll be usr/share/theme/icons/64x64

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

I think that the icons should be included with the Pleego theme. :)

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

More than happy for this, it's d-livil's decision. :rolleyes:

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

i just used the black plastik theme.
you can set your icon shadows off.
and my silver status symbols are self made:)

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Actually already started to gather more stuff to Pleego Scheme, I'm willing to accept some help if someone has time to seek for other suitable icons among the ones afaq already came up with :)

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

I think I can help, two icons have I come up with (not the best one as usual), one that I use for sib and one for the user guide, let me know if you want them. :>

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Sure! Put them in zip and attach them here?

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Done!

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

may i ask what the sib icon is for ? found tasklaunch_user_guide ok in hicolor/64x64 but not seeing sib ?

cheers , moepda

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

If i remember correctly that logo is for "Meego Videos", for which there is no equivalent in Maemo.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Thanks for these, they look fine :)

Allthough I'm more after other icons than application icons (which are ofcourse also wery appreciated). I mean icons for volume, messages etc etc.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

I´m using Pleego so i never overwrite icons (don´t think it doesn't matter), sib is a frontend for mplayer, so not everyone is interested in it.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Oh, I see! I have som icons at home, will take a look soon. :)

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

A very kind member on the meego forum (Physalis) extracted the meego netbook logos for me. See attached. (as I could not gain root access to meego for n900).

They do need to be resized though. Hopefully they work for this purpose.

Attached a few for viewing but zipped folders have a lot more.

Update
Just went through the folders properly and these are all pretty much moblin icons.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

For some mouth ago i downloaded the imagefile for meego and extracted it and there i find many icons (the ones you have here for example)
One thing that can be a "problem" with Pleego and the colorful icons in the zip is that the icons are using with catorise and such and it may look weird, but I don´t know. :)

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Do you still happen to have the extracted folder with the icons? meego handset has a different library of icons from what I can see. Would be good to use those instead.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

Yes, I have been looking for some icons to replace with the hildon ones now. I will have to upload the folders to megaupload because of the size of the icons:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YX9PZJUK

Here are some icons, it´s a loot of icons that can be changed but it takes some time. :)

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

998 icons. Superb. That should def cover it. Thank you towhatend. I'll start on some of these.

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

hi guys ,
is it possible to extract the fw image and change the start up logo or even remove it ( blue "NOKIA" with white background ) and reflashing the device with this modified fw image ?
or even if we extracted the fw image we wont be able to find the logo pic. ?

i know it sounds stupid :D but i wanted to ask anyways ,coz i've been able to change all icons in the device but this blue ugly logo thingy :p

Re: * The Truly Epic Maemo 5 MODs Thread *
 

I updated Plastic Addon Pack 2 yesterday and made it depend on Pleego Icon Pack which I updated today. It has now all icons that afaq posted earlier and bit and pieces from other users aswell.

Keep them coming and I'll add them to future updates :)
