I heard something about Elf Pack, i heard its like an exe on computer but its for phone.

So .exe are programs on computer, do elf packs contain programs?

Or is it like, you put some elf packs on phone folder, and you can click on it and it changes the phones GFX, like file manager icons, battery signal?

If elfs got nothing to do with changing phones GFX, then let me know please

Executable and Linkable Format...

Basically elves are small programs that directly use the phones ARM processor and resources. Unlike JAVA applications. You can add many functions to a elfpack enabled phone. The downside is that they (elves) consume more battery and if you run too many, will slow the phone down considerably. The only platforms that support elves are DB2010/12 and DB2020.

Read the Elfpack topic to learn more about elves. smile.gif

Have you patched all the necessary files (Elfpack, lib) and setup the folder structures (zbin/config/dyn_const.bin etc) ?? If not, read the elfpack topic. smile.gif
