nope.. it's html, css and js ;)
it's nothing too difficult.
with little programming knowledge this is done in a couple of minutes.
(although there are some tiny glitches ^^)

Is it possible to have battery level in percents on desktop? Like in Iphone? I don't mean widgets.

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

Just a quick FYI that i am working on a Wiki page with as much of this modding info as possible.

I'll post a link when it closer to publishable.

Ohhh I'm loving this signal icon mod.

I've just added a simple stroke/edge to the fainter blocks to give a simple but very effective look.

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

you can add icons for each button by doing the following:

1. sudo vi /etc/systemui/systemui.xml
2. withing each <menuitem></menuitem> section put <icon>icon_file_name</icon>. This icon_file_name can be any file in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/ and don't put ".png" e.g: if xyz.png then just <icon>xyz</icon>

However, I couldn't figure out how I can do the same for the "Phone" button coz I couldn't find one such <menuitem></menuitem> list for it.

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

You want /etc/systemui/callui.xml.

Make a backup of the original png's.

move files in desktop folder to:
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon

move files in statusarea folder to:
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/

Reboot your N900.

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

Thanks qwerty12.
BTW, has anyone tried to mod the lock screen when the device lock is activated coz default one really hurts my eyes ;)

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

Sorry, how do you move the files to the folder specified - ie what linux commands do you need to use?

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

i use mc (midnight commander) from extras... repo, which is a file manager, you can do it on the phone..

for xterm commands

Thanks, can I put my own icons to this directory or I need use the original icons from this directory ? (/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/)

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

I'm not sure but there shouldn't be any problem as long as it's png file and make sure its not big or else it will make the menu look even worst. Better it's 48x48 resolution big.

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

Thanks but I'm sorry coz I think you got me wrong. I have no problem with that unlock screen. I'm talking about the one where I have to enter 5 digit pin and hit "Done". Thats the one which hurts bad.

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

Oh... Right. :p

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

you could try mapping a command to one of the un-used power button commands so instead of the soft power you could "hciconfig hci0 up"

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

Sorry, I dont know how I do this... Can you explain me please...

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

impressive, but smaller than id hoped...

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

this is just an example:

<menuitem priority="10" name="Soft poweroff">
<return>7</return>
<po>osso-powerup-shutdown</po>
</menuitem>
turns into something like -->

<menuitem priority="10" name="Bluetooth On">
<return>7</return>
<po>"hciconfig hci0 up"</po>
</menuitem>



: not sure if this will work, and this script would only work for turning the bluetooth on but it's basic linux stuff, i'm fairly new at maemo, but have been using linux since backtrack version1 released. hci tool set is pretty much the goto bluetooth configuration set. google=hciconfig, hcitool

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

yeah, I know, but I don't think you can use bigger pics.
I can try that a bit later

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

Thanks.
Will take a while with midnight commander moving each file individually.. was just thinking, is there a more efficient way? Is there any way to access the linux directories though Windows? (Would make life so easy :p)

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

whatever the folder is that u need to put the file in

for example "hildon"

put all the files that need to go into folder into folder named "hildon"

put this folder on phones mass storage

open xterm, type "sudo gainroot"

type "mc" to open mc

on left panel go to folder the hildon folder needs to go into {for example}
and move folder over

thats how i do......................

That thread shows the area I am interested in, but the rar contains the icons for the always visible area. It didn't change the icons for the pop up status area?

They are the good one's 48x48.
