1. Open termianl
2. Type sudo gainroot

Now you are in root.

Now if I remember right, you want to copy files, without using ssh, you can't use winscp.
So you can copy the files using USB cable, then they will be in :
/home/user/MyDocs
You can manually copy them

You CANNOT access those folder with USB cable.
The only folder you will see when you are connected with the cable and looking at your N900 like mass storage is as I posted last time :
Code:
/home/user/MyDocs
.
So If you want to copy your files, you will NEED to copy the files via USB, to the root of the USB drive that appears as N900,

Then open terminal, go into "sudo gainroot" and copy the files you just copied via USB, from the /user/home/MyDocs folder to the rtcom folder.

The command to copy files in sudo gainroot, (or any other linux shell mode) is :
Code:
cp /someFolder/someSubFolder/someFileName /someDestFolder/SomeDestFolder/SameFileName

wat i did .....

i downloaded the files from here then just unzip them anywhere in my n900 MyDocs-folder named "test" when connected via mass storage mode to your pc. (for example make a new folder called “test” and copy them over there).

then unplug the usb-cable and open x-term.... for the first command i made was ...

1. sudo gainroot
2. cp MyDocs/test/* /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/

but still those files were not copied in those folder moreover the sms style didnt changed as well...nor did my avtar came...

where did i go wrong...???

You need write a full path:

1. sudo gainroot
2. cp /home/user/MyDocs/test/MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.css /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.css

3. cp /home/user/MyDocs/test/MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.html /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.html

4. cp /home/user/MyDocs/test/MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.js /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.js

5. cp /home/user/MyDocs/test/avatar.png /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/avatar.png

Schturman , thanks for the above tip , I was wondering if it would be possible to change the design of the conversations like this all the time ?I mean using the above commands ?

I have like 10-12 designs that I like and want to use with different themes , so every time I want to change it , I have to type these commands into the xterminal ?

Is there any simpler way of changing it from the phone itself and not connecting to WinSCP all the time ?

Thanks in advance _

You can put all the files you want to switch to in a folder on
/home/user/MyDocs/Themes/1
/home/user/MyDocs/Themes/2
/home/user/MyDocs/Themes/3
...

And using an .sh file automatically run the command by pressing a button on your desktop.
Fairly easy.

If need more help, I'm here
  • Create .sh file on your N900
  • Enter the command you would have done to copy in that file
  • Give that file exec permissions with "chmod +x scriptName.sh"
  • Create a desktop file to run the script
  • Enjoy

I wonder if there is an option to hide offline Facebook and Gmail users in the contact list inside conversations box. Those offline users can't receive messages sent offline, only Skype carries offline messages via Maemo's conversation dialog.

Any way to have an option to hide offline users via a menu? Any ideas?
