Tutorial | W850i Flash Themes Guide Cid/49/51/51/53, Come here for a good guide that will work for your w850i.... Options

[Jak01]

Tutorial updated to be used with XS++ 3.1 which makes it even more easier! And also tested on CID52 w610i,w880i,s500i,w580i,w900i, and works fine:)

(Note:XS++ v3.1 (DARWIN) Does NOT support CID53 (w595, w910i etc) so please do not try if you have a CID53 phone i got the topic title wrong)

It may be possible to access CID53 by.....
Windows: Use FAR Manager with JDFlasher plugin. (not tested by me, and not supported in this tutorial)
Linux (incl. Mac, though not known to work perfectly): Use XS++ v4.1 BETA (CROSSFIRE). (not supported in this tutorial)

If you are getting problems with doing this like an error message when you install them on your phone like " Theme file corrupt " or the flash menu is not there then make sure.
You have put the EXACT name of the swf so if it is " citybeat.swf " you NEED to put the whole name not just " citybeat " or " CiTyBeAt.swf " as it is CASE-SENSETIVE. Also if this does not work remember to .tar the theme files WITH TUGZIP and NOT 7-zip.Then you can rename to .thm and then put the .thm file in your "themes" folder on your phone


Ok now to the faq part of the post ....

Q.How do i delete of my phone when i am bored of them?

A.Click the picture below to show you how you can delete them by using XS++(Phone must be connected first)

Q.What have i done wrong, my menu has loads of different coloured dots and is only at the top part of the screen and you cant make it out?

A.The .swf file is either corrupt or to small for your w850i so try another one...


Q.When i click on vodafone live or Play now it comes up with a screen like this....
[attachment=10875:playnowcorrupt.jpg]


A.This is a common problem if you have a w850i without play now on.And vodafone as even i cannot get them to work so sorry just dont click on them on the menu .



Q.My menu looks like this still when i have edited the html in the Theme.xml file?

A.Check back at the theme.xml file if you have done it right if not make sure you have uploaded the specific swf menu file to your phone.



Q.My phone will not turn back on after i have take then cable out of the phone?

A.Ok, just take the battery out and put it back in again if this does not work post a topic on the forum.


Q.All my normal and flash themes are mixed into one directory what can i do to seperate them?


A.Make a "Flash Themes" directory in your themes directory and put them in there.

Q.How many flash themes can i put on my phone?

A.I would put as much as i could until i have atleast 2-3 mb of memory on your phone memory so it does not get full up(incase you need to store messages or dont have memory card).

[j4ck1nth3b0x]

hi i do it like you told, but when i go to my themes folder there are any flash themes that i upload :S

can anyone help me please?

I have the same problem with kogutheking. I have successfully upload the flash themes into my w850i but when i restart the phone and goes into 'Themes', the flash menus are not there.

Anyone can help us on this?

[Jak01]

@ j4ck1nth3b0x and kogutheking

The flash themes do not come up in the "themes" part as they are now flashed into the phone and you can not see them in the phone file browser.
Now you need to go back to the tutorial and go to this part of the post...

Ok now to making your flash menu that youve put on your phone working with a theme of your choice just download this and this will tell you ( Note:I did not make this).Thanks uroszg!
Attached File themeflash.zip ( 1.3MB ) Number of downloads:

And read those instuctions in the zip to make them work with the uploaded swf file(flash menu) you want.



@ waffle
Make sure you have edited the " Theme.xml " correctly as it says in the themeflash.zip
Also when you archive (compress) the theme files make sure you .TAR it and not any other format such as .zip , .rar . And then you can rename the .tar to .thm and then put onto your phone


Hope this helps :S

[waffles]

Hi Jak01,

Thanks for the advise. I downloaded the required files and did according to what was instructed on the FLASH presentation.

I uploaded the 'newly' created theme(.thm) into my w850i memory card and try to install this flash-menu-embedded theme. But unfortunately, i've got this error message "File corrupt, cannot be used."

Can you help?

Regards.

[Jak01]

@ waffles
So have you got the flash menu spinin working if so congrats but also..
I have got that ferrari theme and if you want it to work with one of the flash themes you uploaded just pm with the exact name of .swf you want to use with it and i will send it to you.

@ j4ck1nth3b0x
What network are you on?
Also are you sure you .tar 'd the theme files before you changed it to .thm and did you edit the theme.xml correctly?

P.S

@Jak01
I'm in Singapore, using this Singtel Network.
Ok, do I tar'd the theme files first, then manually change the file extension to .thm? or do I straight away tar'd the theme files directly to a .thm file?

Yes, i've edit the theme.xml correctly.

[Jak01]

.tar them and then manually change it to .thm at the end so like this....

yourtheme.tar
To...
yourtheme.thm

And put on your phone and enjoy

Hi Jak01,

Tried, can't work. Still getting the "File corrupt ...blah blah" error message.

Can you uploaded a theme that uses clubpulse.swf here for me to try?

I have uploaded clubpulse.swf into my FS. So it's in there.

Thanks.
