Yesss!!!! It's now possible to reskin your walkman, as discovered by Oblivion @ Se-nse
http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=3876

And you can also "pimp" your default "megabass" setting to your own desired value, though I'm still experimenting on it (see post my me, railfanwithk750 on the se-nse forum).

Ladies and gentlemen, the WALKMAN is REBORN!!!

just checked that out. It works - I changed the walkman player background image on my K750/W800 Now we can match the player to our themes.

WHOOOOT!

Nice one! Fixes the horrible orange clash of the player to my themes.

Posted by IRFCA_WDG-3A
It doesn't work with Animated GIF's though...
That was a big disappointment for me

Posted by g-roxx0304
anyone wanna share your background with us?

Hi!

If i use this new walkman skin then will i b able to use the Default Orange skin again?

& also how do u install the skin?

Posted by mrwoll
I think if you delete the files in the mp folder apart from the settings.xml it will just revert to the old skin as those are internal.

We could try and make a skin similar to the w850 walkman player.

I made a pug skin (posted at se-nse) for the walkman, based on oblivion's work, to match the Pug theme on my phone.



Posted by IRFCA_WDG-3A
Don't need to touch the settings.xml - simply deleting the files from your MP folder will get ur walkman back to it's original looks.

You answered your own question. Just put 'em in that folder. there won't be ANY of those files in your FS, so you won't find any. If you put files with the right names in the above folder, then they will appear over the top of the existing orange graphics (which are not in your FS, but in the main flash where they are currently inaccessible).

i still cant use far manager on my k750i , i dont know wot people mean when they say extract the plugin to far/plugins , do i extract the whole folder or just the flash plugin inside the folder , aslo i dont know wot people mean by extract it to far ???

Posted by IRFCA_WDG-3A
@Jack...
Don't try it if you can't understand all the blabber going on here.........you might end up with something you don't want (Though it can be undone).

And another reason why you are not able to get in, may be you're on CID 49?
(Now, don't ask me what's CID 49 - it has been asked and answered thousands of times in all the threads!)

Posted by bugsiiy
has anyone found out the megabass settings? what are it's values?

Posted by max_wedge

just did it and when i have the new skin and it worked, saw the new skin but when i open and close the walkman application the skin reverts back to the default skin, i cn use the skin if again if i restart the phone, but the worst part is that my camera crashes when i take a picture, and it wont save.

yup im having such problem aswell, but so far i dont see any solution about this .. by far only reboot the phone solution.. didnt see any permanent solution though.. its probably due to the size of the media player icon and etc..

thats exactly what happens to me as well and when you are on the camera, if you press view the pictures are blank, and in pictures in file manager all my pictures seem to be corrupted. but this reverts back to normal when i restart the phone

Posted by ann3x10
i just removed the skin, what skin have you tried? i tried 1 from topony the clubpulse skin, any other skins that you have tested that have the same symptoms?

Posted by rockygali
all modded skins will eventually have the same effect....

as a theory, modders connect this to the K750's memory performance.. since weve add up images other than that of the default causes the memory to go haywire and eventually disrupt the whole system. Symptoms can be easily found by using the camera and browsing picture files...

and these can be all reverted to its original form after a phone reset. (turn off then on).

so for safe keepin and if youre really pissed with this crashes... modders suggest not to mod your media player skins.

Posted by ann3x10
thats what i did , i removed the files and everything went to NORMAL as they say, i did the reset thing butit is a hassle to do it everytime, so i guess im stuck with this orange player, but why do some never experience what my phone has.

Posted by max_wedge
I've just tried something to fix this media player crashing - it SEEMS to be working - haven't been able to make it crash yet with this tweak.

What I did was reduce the number of colours to 16. Working on the hypothesis that the crashing is a resource problem, I thought how can I decrease the size of the image further. It ocurred to me that if I reduced the number of colours in the palette the file would be smaller and need less cpu time to process as well.

I reduced the colour depth of the images in an early peugeot skin (list_background, fullscreen_back, and low_back) from 256 to 16 colours.

EDIT: Okay I couldn't get it to crash, but as soon as I used the camera, IT crashed. And then the media player skin went south as well But it was more stable than before.

Maybe two colours? That'd be a bit limiting though.



Posted by rockygali
hmmm that will take lotsa talents and imagination on pimpin your skin with 2-tone colors...

ill better stick with the default...

Posted by ann3x10
black and orange would be good as lon as the base color is black and the words are orange that would be good.

Posted by rockygali
texts cannot be edited sorry.... you have to take the default text colors and start modding from there, compenstate it as your base colors...

and i guess itll come out a lil boring...

Posted by max_wedge
okay I'm trying some two colour (Blue and grey - my Pug skin again)



Posted by 2uk3y
sometime hard to jump from 1 song to another, like stuck when press left or right.....
also up n down cant use, sometime also.....
