I've got a colour picker addon for Mozilla so I'll just take the codes from that.

Thanks

what weather and clock widgets are you non sense guys using? i just rooted and miss the sense one

Theres plenty of clocks, i've used and liked TypoClock, Simi Clock, Digital Clock Wigit.

Snowstorm is a decent weather wigit

I have 3 weather programs and they are all different. The weather bug, snow storm, BW. So I dont know which is right. lol

Khaaan, the green tick on the side of your sent message - that's a delivery report yes? I've got them turned on on mine but they don't show up - I get the animated "waiting" circle then it goes blank

Any ideas pal?

Under Settings > Receive Message Settings I have SMS Delivery reports and MMS Reports enabled but not Handcent Delivery reports. Rea Reports are also off.

I recall having to disable it then re-enable it and it just worked thereafter!

I also turned everything off in the stock Android SMS app, maybe this also helped.

Updated to dark

If you like then I will write down all the colours, will take a while but should be worth it

Please do!

Tried to copy the colours, but couldn't have the conversation bubbles as dark as Khaaans. Guess thats the drawbacks of a SLCD

Mine did the same, so I just did it manually and it worked

Does anyone know how to get the call logs one?
I can't see an option for it

I am absolutely gobsmacked at how fast and excellent Dolphin Mini. Everything about it is excellent. I highly recommend people try it out! Way better than Dolphin HD with some neat features. Volume buttons to smoothscroll is amazing

Go to the app drawer and find the app

go onto the one with your weather display, press menu and go to global settings,

tick Define weather location and underneath is the location you chose

Test it, just underneath again

What video player are people using?

I am currently using Rock Player and while its pretty good to get full functions they are charging $10!
Thats way to much for me!

 

[benjo]

VPlayer beta is good

Nice, how did you change the colours of the signal bars? :)

How can you set the date in Handcent to dd/mm/yy? Mine is appearing as mm/dd/yy
