I have same exact problem... with Vista_clear_Orange skin..

I have Soft-Reset and even used VJPhone Toggle... I cannot replace the following files:

clg_in.gif
clg_miss.gif
clg_out.gif
spd_lst.gif

(Rest all of the files copied/replaced fine)

Pauly- Any help? Thanks.

That one’s attributes have Read Only, Hidden, and System checked. I can’t find a way to change them, so I guess I can’t have any decent buttons for speed dial and call history. I thought it would be simple like swapping out all the bitmaps for the dialer.

Any more suggestions? Or am I stuck with the Eten ones or the default ones?

I know.. I tried to saturate it as much as I could without making it bleed all over itself. I may be able to tweak it a bit more to help make it pop.. I'll let you know.

You have to uncheck all three (Read Only, Hidden, and System). Okay actually I'm not sure about the System, but probably that one as well. I don't know what you are using to view the files on your PPC, but you can use Total Commander/CE (www.ghisler.com) will allow you to see the files and change the attributes. The software is available on all the popular freeware sites as well.

I was just using File Explorer. Got Total Commander/CE and installed it. Could see the spd_lst file (that's the only one I've been trying lately) and tried changing the attributes - checked Archive, unchecked Read Only, Hidden and System. There's one that says "in Rom" that's checked and won't uncheck.
On the Last modified date side, I checked Change, Now, goes to today's date and time. Something at the bottom has Recurse subdirs, which I have both checked and left unchecked.
Hit Okay. Did soft reset even.
Every time I go back to check, it STILL has Read Only, Hidden and System checked!!!!!!!!!

Think I'm going to quit trying for a while.

Just wish I knew how you got yours to work.
But thanks for the help.

Like a kid with a new toy, I was playing around with Total Commander and saw that you could Copy / Move a file, so I tried to copy the spd_lst to Windows, and...................IT WORKED!!!! Guess I can try to do the other buttons now.

Thank you, poqeteer! I really am tired of the ETen buttons.

Thanks to poqeteer and his post about Total Commander, I finally got it to work. I didn't need to change the attributes for the original .gifs, but I did need to use Total Commander to copy the files into Windows. I tried again with File Explorer and it still wouldn't allow it.

Can't remember who else to thank, but with VJPhoneToggle and Total Commander, I can change themes and matching phone dialer skins whenever I feel like a change.

Not sure if this will work, but here's 2 skins with matching themes, and a very plain orange skin. I wanted BIG numbers.

Orange.zip

Pink Plumeria.zip

Purple Space.zip

I only had the problem with the gifs (bmps were never a problem) - same message. Seem to have solved the problem by copying them to Windows with Total Commander. I have all bmps and gifs on SD card and just copy all the needed ones to Windows.

Whoa! 3-D old school typewriter city! If you would make the buttons a bit darker and closer to black. That will look sharp then.

I am really enjoying the orange one.. very nice

the links on the first page to have your desktop and above/bottom bars also orange (takes you to an apple download page) are not working, alas...

anyone have those files from there, before the site went bad?

Love the Eten Dialer, keep up the great work! Hey Pauly and vinscuzzy, any chance of doing a Vista_Silver or even a Silver Glass Eten? It would still retain the Vista look but would use Black Text/Numbers. I am a former kokkos user, the silver theme he had was awesome to use in outdoors/bright light and functioned well in regular situations. It's just a suggestion, but after seeing the Vista_Black, it got me thinking .... Thanks in advance!!

I was just looking at the Vista Trans Black Theme. If you changed the grass backgound to a light. light silver, or whitish hue and got rid of the grass and made it solid, with black text. Might be very popular.

I second that and to take it a step futher instead of the grass put a BLACK FLAME image behind the transparant buttons. That would be hot and go along with almost any today screen because of the color scheme.
