I've been digging around, and I've managed to get the numbers that show up on the dialer in rainbow colors, change the color scheme (sort of like themes), and found a whole lot of interesting things.

The rainbow colors things I found on the Eternity forum.

I'm sorry, I'm not very at all tech, so these things kinda confuse me. Are you talking about something like this?

If not, does this work for our phone? I know the Eternity is a lot like our phone, but I don't wanna do something without knowing...

More like stuff here: http://www.samsung-eternity.com/index.php?topic=6686.msg68128

I've been messing around more in there. Accidentally turned off No SIM Mode and toggled some others things.

Ok, so hopefully most people on this forum know by now that I'm dumb when it comes to tech stuff. I attempted it, searched the eternity forum, read that whole thread. And idk. I see the PreConfiguration.ini in my phone, but under the NV folder, it has nothing, no nv_default.ini
Even if I could find it, I can't, for the life of me, figure out how to edit it.
I'm sorry to bother by asking for you to explain it to me, I just would like to do this to my phone.


Do you know of any step by step/ idiot's guide to doing this?
Thanks

You don't go into the pre-config folder. You go to SystemFS/Settings/Default/NV.

Sorry, what I meant to say was that I am in the NV folder and the nv_default.ini isn't in there. Is it supposed to be?

nv_default Hacking for Dummies
By Luiejongen

Dedicated to Orangiraff24 and other "dummies"

Author's note: Hi everyone. I finally put up this guide.
WARNING: This will delete EVERYTHING not backed up. Backing up means transfering everything to SD card and transfering contacts to the SIM, or using PC Studio to transfer all your data to PC. I am NOT responsible for anything that goes wrong, including your house catching on fire, your pants falling off in public, or your dying goldfish.


Chapter One: Color Schemes

In this chapter, I will be talking about color schemes.

To change the color scheme of your device, you must change a line in the nv_default.ini file found under Settings/Default/NV. Navigate to the directory I just mentioned in TKFE.

Copy the file over to your desktop. Then double click on it and a Notepad window should open up (at least, it opens up for me under Windows 7, if you cannot open the .ini file, just change the extension to a .txt for now).

Look for this line:
NV_SI_SKIN_COLOR_TABLE=11

You can change the number to any number from 1-11. 11 is the default.

After you change it, then copy the file back to where you got it. It should overwrite the existing one automatically. If you changed it to a .txt file, change it back to .ini first.

Then, do a master reset on your phone. To do a master reset, you must dial these numbers like making a phone call: *2767*3855#

After your phone reboots, go (on your phone) to Menu, then Settings. Your menu color scheme changed! (If the number you chose while editing nv_default.ini changes the menu.) Now go to Messaging and hit Create Message. Try out the virtual keyboard. It could have changed too!

If you messed up your phone but can still boot up your phone and get access to the dialer, then do a preconfiguration reset. Dial this code in the dialer: *#6984125*#, then tap Pre-configuration. Your phone will ask you for a operator code, the operator code is *#73561*#. Then hit Install. After the reset everything should be back to factory defaults.

Chapter Two: Custom Firmware
This doesn't have to do with nv_default hacking but I will be making custom firmware soon.

Yay! Someone that didn't say "Hi lazy!"

Luie means lazy. Jongen means boy. I'll explain this later.
