Hi there,

I stopped searching 4 the 2 missing m3gicons 2 complete my hack with 15 animated folders and several animated apps.....
I have used 6 m3g iconspack and no luck yet!

So here it (only normal screenshots 2 make the suprise even greater),

the 13 animated folders hack with a lot of extra's (some of u won't have the apps I have made animated).
Then the suprise will B even greater when U notice a app comes 2 live....

Note:

Due 2 use of my appshell the layout will change 4 U guys.....
Edit the appshell 2 make it 2 UR wishes......


Install:
1) Put rar in E
2) Set CAPS off 2 get acces 2 the private folders
3) Go 2 c:/private/101F4CD2 and make a backup of your old appshell
4) Unzip the rar and see where U have 2 put things (the c/resource/m3gicons folder does not exist in your phones so just drop the whole folder in there)....
5) Overwright with yes if indicated
6) Restart UR cell
7) Set animation on in the menu at option
8) There U go

Please help me out 2 find the other 2 missing m3gicons

Yeah I know mate! Thanx 4 the support.............
Did U like the communication animated app icons?

I also put one that will pop up once u install active notes..
Or the app from FCA0000 that will show different drives.....

They simply don't get it that modding section means trying stuff out and maybe OPDA use my files 2 update the menu-editor.....

A simplified procedure for adding folders to your default N-Series phone with the standard folders only

I thought I'd write a little guide to help you do this safely. In this attachment, I have only included the standard folders the way I like them. It is very easy to change them to your personal taste.

With Zylam Marex's genius experimenting, most of the folders are now international, i.e. if you change the language of your phone they will also change. The only ones still not changing are: Contacts (Personal), Help, GPS, Accelerometer (Extra applications folder, inside Games in this release), and Downloads (Blue Applications, inside Internet in this release). If anyone can find the tags for them which will work in all Nokia phones, you're welcome to tell us :)

The folder icons should be fine with theme changes as well.

415273

The primary language of the above folders in this release, is English.
If you want to change the language of the above folders, all you have to do is:
-Open the .xml file included in the attachment, I have made it minimal on purpose, it includes only the main folders, so that it's not too confusing.
-Find the folder you want to change (after <appshell:folder ), and change the name after short_name= , long_name= , and title_name= , using the language of your choice.
-The rest of the folders with a "&qtn... " in the names, will automatically change to your language.

Let's start:
You need X-plore, you can get it Here ([Only registered and activated users can see links]). Of course you are free to use any file manager you like.

Step 1 Transfer the attachment (Tyx.rar) to your mass memory. Disconnect your phone from your pc.

Step 2 Make a backup of your appshelldata.xml.
First disable caps on your phone, using either ROMpatcher or CapsOff.

415277
Now you can access the C:\Private folder.

Using X-plore, navigate to C:\private\101F4CD2\Content\ , highlight appshelldata.xml, and press 7 , to rename it.
415275
Add a 1 after the xml, or just call it whatever. Press OK.

Step 3 Navigate to where you transfered Tyx.rar with X-plore, in E:\. Open it, and press 4 to extract it, and choose C: as the destination:
415276 <- Press 4, then choose C:
If it mentions overwriting, say yes.

Step 4 Close X-plorer, and restart your phone. All your applications should now be lying in a jumbled mess in the Applications folder. Distribute them with "Options->Move to Folder", as you see fit!

If you need to go back to your previous configuration, just delete appshelldata.xml from C:\Private\101F4CD2 (see step 2), and rename your initial file (which in the above example was renamed appshelldata.xml1, back to appshelldata.xml. Then restart your phone.

THAT'S IT.


Thanks go to Xone for his 15-in-1 .mif with the icons, Zylam Marex for figuring out about the language and theme changes, Rolan95d for finding the animations (Look at his initial .rar file for even more animations), and for posting this thread.

(In the rar I have kept the minimum of xml code, ignoring the standard applications like recorder etc., which will be dumped into your Applications folder for you to move wherever you want. This was not to disrespect rolan95d - you did a fantastic job finding all the animations, mate - but to make it easier for people to modify their folders as they see fit, if they choose to. )

And of course thanks to FCA000000 for the initial fantastic hack, and Ipmart for being such a fantastic place :) :ilove:

Is this trick supposed to work with Nokia 6120c to?

I tried already and there are no animated foldes.

Maybe I'm doing somethimg wrong or maybe it's not working with this phone model.

I want to be sure if this phone is supported or not and if someone can give me an answer i would apeciate it.

:thanks: :ilove:
