have you copied the files with "@" on tpa/preset/system/menu ?

coz you have to delete all the files that exists inside tpa/preset/system/menu
and copy all the files with "@" found on the download link on the first page.

is it actually possible to do that with all the files or with a lot more than just the menu?
I mean we could do that with the cam driver, so you can change cam driver on the fly without using far, the same would go for acoustic driver and all the other things that can be modified...

I think I will try this with the cam driver

one thing is for sure, it does not work with fonts

check that:
1. you have copied a working menu.ml file and icons to the tpa/user/other/menu/live (if you created the menu/live folder in "other" using the phone, make sure you created it in phone memory not memory stick.)
2. you have deleted all content in the tpa/preset/system/menu folder before copying in the shortcuts.
3. Open the shortcuts in notepad just to view them (not edit) and check that the paths are correct. If they aren't don't edit them in notepad, just close the file without saving and use se_shortcut again.

Are you getting an error when you try, or is it just showing the normal menu (not the one in "live")?

dude, the camdriver0.dat is in IFS folder... unfortunately this process doesnt work with IFS folder...

but another process should work with regards to the camdriver... i guess its the default_upgrade.xml process... you can search on that..

remember:

tpa/user/other and usb/other

are of the phones USB function located inside the phones memory.
and NOT our extended memory or memorystick.

Why can't we use this method on IFS?
