Default Facade?

Hey Guys

This is my first PDA and I'm really new when it comes to customizing the Q

I downloaded a couple of home screens from the collection you guys have up and they work just fine. I keep running into a problem with a few of them since they will not display in my settings. They seem to be missing the "image" file on each download. Do I need facade for this? if yes, where can I download the facade? and which folder of the Q do I need to make sure it's copied to?

which are you trying to get to work?
does it say 'requires facade'?

some do require facade and some dont
the ones that do say need facade under the image

also read this from her site on how to install the screens
http://ekopapers.com/install.htm

sounds like you are missing something when you are installing

if you read the link the cab file is the install file for the homescreen
you dont unzip it you just load that to the Q and click on the file with the center silver button to install it

ok

I followed the steps from the link, but the .cab file doesn't install like it says it should. I copied it into the start menu and after selecting it on the Q it just shows me the HTML file, does not install

most screens have 2 or 3 files with them.

you should have..
xxxxx.home.xml
xxxxx.jpg

if it has a missed call screen then you wil have another xxx.jpg

make sure these files are in the \application data\home folder
