Theme phkTAPE: Should the 'WORKS ON CURRENT BUILDS' modification work with 3.4
ZonderP:
Hallo to all.
There is a quite old theme called 'phkTAPE' that I do call my favorite, since I'm rather old too! ;)
It can be found here:
http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/WpsIpod5gGraveyard#phkTAPE
I used Rockbox 3.2 till some days ago with the modifications to the theme done by HumbertoSantana the 29th of September 2008 which can be downloaded at the bottom of the phkTAPE section under 'Download WORKS ON CURRENT BUILDS (This download: HumbertoSantana-- 29 Sep 2008)'
Now this theme doesn't work anymore (for me) -> 3 Questions:
a) Should it work?
b) What simple modifications could I make so that it works again?
c) Where could I download Rockbox 3.3 or 3.2, if there would not be any other chance to bring it to live again?
Thanks in advance,
Patrik
Edit: I forgot to mention on what device I use Rockbox on:
it's an IPod Video (5th gen) with 30 GB.

Hi there - you shouldn't be downloaded themes from the themes Graveyard - it's called a graveyard for a reason - in that the themes there have all been abandoned.

Yes GodEater, I know that.
But so far (till at least version 3.2 - I didn't check it with version 3.3) everything was OK.
I just asked, if someone of the experts here could give me a hint on how i could make it work with 3.4, because I really do love this theme despite the fact that it's in the graveyard.
Or alternatively, where could I download 3.2 or 3.3. (Restoring from backup did not - for reasons I do not know - work for me.)
evilnick:
a) It did work at the time it was submitted, but there have been LOTS of changes to the wps code since September 2008. So it's not surprising that it doesn't work in the current build a year later.
b) Check the customWPS page in the Wiki, and make any required changes to the wps file. This might not be all that simple though.
c) http://download.rockbox.org/old_releases/
soap:
The reason it is in the graveyard is that there is not a clean license on the theme.
IF you could convince the original author to allow redistribution under a CC license...
