Hi- I was just curious as to how u can change the color of the font. I got da 9700 bold. Thanx
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com
more of a crackberry tip than a blackberry tip ...
you have to type the color tags manually
the color tags are (remove spaces)
[ color = colorname]text to be a different color[ /color]
so using [ color=green]Green Text[/co lor] (without the spaces) looks like Green Text
the full (not mobile) crackberry post/reply screen has a color button and it supports 40 predefined colors. probably best to hit the website with a computer browser, reply to a post and play with the color options to see which color you like.
You can also use a hexadecimal color code, [ color =#XXXXXX]some text[/ color] where XXXXXX is six characters, three pairs, 00 - FF for red/green/blue FF0000 is all red, no green or blue, 7F7F7F is rgb all the same, so a half bright gray, etc (if you don't understand hexadecimal color codes, don't worry, there's a lots of colors defined by color names.)
You can go crazy with colors if you've got enough time, but it sure is tedious, and a long post like that would be a pain for others to read.
Some people have defined forum tags in their custom dictionaries as a way to add shortcuts to them, but I never saw the point of always and only posting in the same non-standard color.
(sorry if this has already been asked, I didn't want to read through 18 pages...)
some do i didnt sift through all of them Although i know on the Storm 2 if the keyboard is set to a convenience key you call it up and do Shift + Enter it brings up options
but just to warn you after that one you need to do a battery pull
In Blackberry, there are documented "backdoors" (ALT + 4 letter combinations) and undocumented backdoors. There is an API to implement backdoor. Some key combinations are documented, but some are not. Some of these backdoor have immediate and visible effect (like typing ALT-ESCR in home screen), but some combination does something that is not visible. I will try to list some of the backdoors that I found, especially the ones that is not publicy known.
I will write: "invisible action" when you will not see anything, but something happens in background.
Main/Home Screen
Need to hold ALT in this screen
DCLR : Clear cache hash table (invisible action)
DPAP, ESCR, EACE: help/engineering screen
DUMP: Dump hash table content to debugging port (need to connect to JDE to see the result of this)
JKVV: Show reject cause
LGLG: Show log viewer
LONS: invisible action, HomeScreenInternal.toggleLogONS( ) // calls this (not sure what it does yet)
NMLL: toggle view signal strength in dbm or bar
ONSA, ONSB, ONSU: invisible action change ONS rendering mode (by presence of SIMServiceTable.B_SERVICE_PROVIDER_DISPLAY_INFO ,by SIM is not compliant to TS11.11)
QSMD: Set send report mode
QSMI: ?
SQRD, SQRP: Send report ( net.rim.device.apps.internal.api.quincy.QuincyMana ger)
Options
In some screen (like in the OptionsScreen), you don't need to hold ALT when typing
in Application Options, COMP will set compatibility options to default (it will not show anything on screen)
in Auto On off Options, typing AUTO will show the next date/time auto/on off will be performed
in Date/Time Options: ADST (enable auto adjust clock for Daylight Saving Time), DELT (Time Zones Delta Count), LOLO (Manually adjust network Time Zone offset and DST)
For device with touch screen: in keyboard options VKBB should show something (I haven't tried, and right now I am not in the mood to trace the code)
In Location Options, AGPS will show AGPS setting
Network Options, OMDM will show sync settings if Escreen access is enabled
Security Options, CTDG will set AuthCert Status Period (it will not show anything on the screen)
Status Options, BUYR (show status), FTOT (), TEST (run self test/execute net_rim_bb_device_selftest)
Sms options: SMSP (SMS Service center)
Help Screen
Only one backdoor sequence: ALT - OPEN open help file
App world
Appworld backdoor keys are only 3 characters long
ALT - BIS: Toggle force BIS_B
ALT - RST: reset keyed store
ALT - UOI: user interface test (only shows a useless screen)
ALT - LOG: Show log
if you are in an sms msg or bbm msg, and type "mypin", "mynumber" and "myver"
(followed by a space after the code) your phone will enter your pin, your phone number, and the type of phone & os you are running on. I've found that trick handy quite a few times!
I wish that there will be a tweak that will allow us to use any apps in your BB device especially apps that is downloaded from App world through Wi-fi. All the BB apps are BB integrated and should go through BIS in order to use/enjoy it.
