Windows Live SkyDrive is a free cloud storage service by Microsoft that offers users 25GB of storage space and then access it from anywhere from any browser but unlike dropbox you can’t just sync a folder on your PC which is a much better to getting it done ( at least for me it is ). Having a Windows Phone I started using skydrive and I was looking around for a way to sync folder on my PC to Skydrive and since most of you all will be windows phone users as well this could come in handy for you as well. Plz note that you can’t sync all file types , I was only able to sync documents using this method. Tutorial after the break.
Was the old skool Dos Theme not cool enough 4 ya ? Then we have something for you. This brilliant WAD2 Theme gives you windows 7 on your Windows Mobile Phone. The theme looks so good I am in love with it. You will need WisBar Advance Desktop from lakeridgesoftware.com to run this theme. This theme is VGA only ( sorry guys , try dropping a request to the developer here to see if he can create this masterpiece for other resolutions as well ). The theme works in landscape and portrait mode.
WisBar Advance Desktop from lakeridgesoftware.com is one of the most flexible Today screen replacement available for Windows Mobile. Using “virtual pages”, widgets and scripts, WisBar Advance Desktop allows you to create an interface that suits your usage of your Windows Mobile device, making it personally yours. You can find many themes from various designers.
This one is a Windows7 theme for VGA devices. It only supports Portrait Mode for now. Copy the content of the rar file ( Windows 7 7068 folder and Windows 7 Mobile 7068.wadesktop ) to \Program Files\Lakeridge\WisBar Advance Desktop\Themes and run the .wadesktop file.
BootPackage, created by wajk, replaces your startup screen with a Windows 7 boot screen. It even has sound to imitate booting. This package is only for WVGA and HTC devices. There is a beta for non-HTC phones too, but there could be bugs ( and its currently not working , but you can grab it from the developers site, if you want to play around with it )
Changelog:
1.2
- added sound
1.1
- added builtin StartupAnimation enabler (REG)
- changed Energy logo
- optimized graphic
- retimed frames
