Hello all

I have a Nokia 6280 and i have been using the Theme Studio 2.1 to make themes for my phones. I like it alot :O)

Now i read somewhere that the theme.nth files is in fact just a ZIP file !
Wow diddent know that so now you can just open the nth/zip fil and edit it and you dont even need the Theme Studio.

So you take your theme.nth on your computer and rename it to theme.zip then you can extract it (in windows xp there is a unzipper program when you right click a .zip file so you dont need other programs)

So inside the unzipped folder is the files (graphics, sounds, animations and so on) and there is a files called somthing like theme_description.xml any way there is only 1 XML file and thats the one i mean.

In windows xp you can open this file by right clicking and chosing open with... and MFC Wordpad (if you open it with notepad it dossent look so nice because i ignores the newline charters.

And there you have the source code if you will for your theme and it even says it i coded in UTF-8 (unicode) so save it that way i done know if this is very importent.

Anyhow this file is cool because you can se all the things and edit and copy is you like.

Well.....

The thing is...... The thing iiis.....

I would like to have MORE CONTROL !! over the graphics on my phone.
For exampel i would like to change the play/stop buttons and so on in the radio/music player and i would like to change the battery/signal/time and everything you know so if anyone out there is able to find codes like those in the theme_description.xml (not right filename but close i think) then please let me know.

There must be other commands to control more on the phone.

Also i have i problem with the SIMATK icon on the phone sometimes i just reset its self to the default icon but all the others look right.
and i have a problem with the right softkey background when taking a picture and making a choise the softkey right background is not in the right place, its to the left (or down if you hold the phone in take-picture-mode)

Any how i hope someone can help me with more in deepth theme making and other cool stuff for my phone.
