I haven't had any issues at all with the phone. Love this damn thing. I'm just waiting for Hackaday.com to come out with a way to solder in more memory into this phone. I'm pretty sure it can be done. Those guys are crazy.

Answer to your question is that it took me about 2-3 hours to set everything up, download all my apps, etc.

you have a copy on ur computer of ur mods right? that saves soo much time just incase of restore

*edit* hehe since everybody is showin theirs i'll show mine..

That ferrari one is sick. I like cars with a flaming passion so I can vouch for that one. I also like GIT's theme. Looks sweet. Only thing I didn't like about themes is that they only skin some icons. Take pictures of your other pages.

**stocis** · 10-20-2008, 11:17 AM

um.. how do u do this?
can i have the ferrari one and git ones?

thanks

**gQstatus05** · 10-20-2008, 11:53 AM

This is my setup. My phone is jailbroken ver. 2.1., I installed Categories, and look on CYDIA for themes. (CYDIA is the jailbroken APP store so to speak) Look for a theme on there and then play with categories and themes. That's all.

**Alperovich** · 10-20-2008, 12:18 PM

yea, that;s how i have mine too categories and stacks. i would LOVE if catergories opened like the stack folder, that would be SICK

Ask and ya shall recieve... I agree with u about some icons... i hate when my icons don't all match.. but i guess im happy with my current theme.. its HTCPerfectStorm(found in theme launches section of this forum) with a Ferrari background (that i found somewhere lol) with Mac UI (cydia), and eGlass_V3(theme sections)...

haha i was playing Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance on my phone

i'm no noob, i just wanna know how the clock appears there as well as the weather. can u share ur setup here?

**Alperovich** · 10-20-2008, 12:42 PM

yea nice i like the ferrari theme too, i think i might try that theme on my old 2G see how it flows

**gQstatus05** · 10-20-2008, 06:03 PM

Best thing to do is not copy someones setup. You can play with different themes and find one that suites your style. Believe me if you love the phone as much as we do you probably will end up changing the theme around every 2 weeks. I like simplicity, that's my style so that's why I have a simple but clean theme.

I love cars with a passion so I'm going to try and learn how to make icons and themes for the iPhone. I came from a Windows Mobile platform and used to make themes and custom keyboard sliding sounds ,etc for those phones. Totally new experience for me but I love it.

heh the only reason that i wanted ur setup was to play around with it and mod it to suit me. i'm a theme maker myself, but i didnt know that i could have weather and clock as a wallpaper. in any case i managed to find the theme and play around with it but unfortunately i cannot have my location (uk) as weather due to the fact that we here have no support for zip codes (in configure.jsp) + i'd like a 24h clock and not a pm/am one..

**gQstatus05** · 10-21-2008, 07:58 AM

I'm sure someone came up with a way to tweak your phone via SSH to get your weather for you area. It's similar to the Windows Mobile platform. Alot of UK users would mod the registry and make it work. Might want to do a google search and see if someone figured it out. There's a way to do everything. I'm going to play with another theme today I think since it's slow at my job.

Any way to Skin Themes within the Folders in Categories? Anyone?

got it to work.. for anyone that's interested, you just type 'Derby, United Kingdom' or whatever it applies instead of UXX0040 or 0040 or a zip code and it works.

although i'd still like to see the clock png's without that glossy stuff all over them and being 24h but got low photoshop skills to do such thing all over again :/

oh well maybe the theme owner has a psd and is willing to share

**BlueBliss** · 10-21-2008, 03:40 PM

Categories is an interesting app, but it killed my 1st gen iPhone a while ago, too. I've avoided it, but that's not to say that it isn't a great program.

Props on the modding!

**gQstatus05** · 10-22-2008, 09:03 AM

Only part that is going to suck is when there is an upgrade to Categories. I have to remove all Icons from their folders, and then upgrade it. I'm scrared that a possible upgrade will ruin me. Is that how your iPhones got messed up guys?

**quakerroatmeal** · 10-22-2008, 10:03 AM

I may try out categories. Looks nice, I hate having 30 icons on my home page with 3-4 pages.

same here.. but it was simply due to the fact that you have to remove all Icons from their folders, and then uninstall/upgrade.. we didnt know..

but its a must. with 123 apps.. its one of the core apps

**gQstatus05** · 10-22-2008, 04:17 PM

speak of the devil. Today I went to look for my categories icon from my installers folder and it wasn't there. I went to cydia and searched for catogories and when I clicked install it didn't prompt me to re-install. It was as if it wasn't installed. I re-installed it and the icon is not there anymore as well as the app called backeounder. This sucks now I may have to restore and start all over again. Any suggestions?

**stocis** · 10-22-2008, 06:56 PM

uninstall, reboot, install ?

**gQstatus05** · 10-22-2008, 09:33 PM

tried that. : (
