Tweetie SMS balloons in Cydia works with 3.0, looks nice

[West-]

We got the balloons, just the Background is the issue

i really dont know much about this stuff yet. I would guess that the issue with the sms background has something to do with the fact that it can rotate for landscape now.

it would be nice if you can designate 2 different backgrounds, one for landscape and one for portrait.

i havent found any images so far leading back to a "background" image... we have to be missing a folder somewhere

Farggin apple, making things difficult... I have seen several different paths though.. -.- This shouldn't be so hard. LOL

Im thinking they changed the name of it, its def been moved if anything. Im also wondering if it is even a png file any more because in the 3.0 fireware they added the feature landscape to sms so maybe its not a png file but something else or if it is there must be 2 one for landscape and one for regular.

I'm still searching as we speak :/

sorry, double post... but has anyone tried extracting the "dynamic-txt.dat" to see its contents? jw... might be something for keyboard... it is in folder.

[swalsugmass]

where is the dynamic-txt file located?

[emberlon]

Definately found keypad.png... but my image editors can't read it... its in the private frameworks folder, TelephonyUI... see if anyone else can do something with it.

In the "Keyboard" folder.

Anybody else having any luck? :/

[banilla16]

is anyone else having problems with png's not loading anymore? i used to be able to ssh folder and open them on my computer and be able to see what each image was without opening... not anymore with 3.0

The reason you can't view the images by default is that you need to flip the channels first. This is nothing new in 3.0, certain app icons were definitely like this in 2.0 as well. In fact that's the sole reason I have the software to flip the channels already on my machine, from theming in 2.x. You use a program called FixPNG to do this...you can Google it or I'll add a download link to the bottom of this post for convenience. Copy the png files into the "png" folder and then run iPhoneFixPng.exe and click Convert, the fixed images will be in the "fixed" folder and will be viewable in Windows.

And here is what the keypad.png from /privateframeworks/TelephonyUI looks like after running it through FixPNG...

Yeah, i'm having the same problem, i thought it might have been something i did, but i see now that it wasn't. This is frustrating, what good are cool looking Balloons without an AWESOME custom made SMS Backgrond. Sheesh!

Well, i have been searching and searching, until my eyes are now starting to blur and cross. LOL!

I have still been unable to find the SMS Background.

Although, under PrivateFrameworks there are a LOT of PNG files all of which i have extracted to FixPNG and looked at, none plain and boring like the original SMS Background for the 3.0 update and none at the correct size either.

So i'm literally baffled.

Although i did find ONE PNG file that was called JibblerBackground.png which is the correct background size, but JibblerBackground is also blue and i know the background for SMS isn't blue. So, yeah, that's my update, i'm gonna keep looking for a bit. Hopefully soon someone will find a way to change the SMS background.

Thanks for all your help!

It's the wallpaper problem we need solved. We have the balloons figured out.
