Great theme and I have it, too, but if you never tried it note that you loose the carousel with this theme - just for the record. And some of the widgets have French titles.

I used google toolbar translate. You have to register with the website and then you can download.
As for the fact that it removes the carosel, it's well worth it.
I recommend it warmly.

Hi, I'm using this theme for the first time and I'm having problems with opening sms messages. I get signs for recieving the texts but when I go into the messages page I can't open them at all.
Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to recify this,

I really want to use this theme but still not work after installing everything..
How to remove some pages/screens, Dont need all 7?
I have a question regarding the number of screens, Can i change it? I dont need that menu menues, and over half of them are left empty. Can I remove the empty ones?
I also miss favorite contacts buttun/window, How can i get that?
Thaks alot for any tips!
Favourite contacts buttos is still present: Add Widget -> Diver Sence -> ContactsFav.
And AFAIK there is no possibility to change number of screens...
i dont get any word at this site.
Could anyone upload it to rapidshare and post here link?
btw there is english support for this?
My PC died
Hey everyone,
My PC died and I wanna download this via mobile...
But Mobilecustom doesnt work right with mobile downloads...
I asked the maker and he said that i could see if someone else could upload it to their 4Shared or megaupload or something and grab it from them, it would be okay.
It is not okay to post a download, but someone could email me link...so the mass public wouldnt get it...
please PM me if u can help!
For those having problems installing it, make sure that:
1) You are using SPB Mobile Shell 3.x.x
2) You have installed the Message2Reg.cab so that you can use the SMS widget
3) All else fails, reinstall SPB MS3
Personally, I think this theme is fantastic, although I would like to somehow link every page back to the home page with a button somehow...since you sometimes have to swipe three or four times before you get back to the home page.
Other complaints are:
1) No carousel...i miss the eye-candy =P
2) Some widgets are in french, although that's easy to live with and also makes you seem more sophisticated to your friends
3) You cannot change the Professional page...it is now a redundant page that only shows the time and battery meter - I would prefer to have my agenda or calendar there
4) You cannot use the widgets unless you use the full theme...unless there is some "widget capture" program that I have missed
Otherwise, it's a fantastic theme! Definitely worth it and it is good for novelty if nothing else. Somebody actually asked me if I thought that the Android OS was good!...until I told him it was WinMo and he was like " no way!"
Any idea of how to change the launcher button to fav-contacts?
How do i change the "launcher" button to a contacts button? Saw a screenshot in this forum on page 17 that someone had done it.
Dont se the point of having a big button for luncher menu on every screen?
I cant seem to make it fullscreen.. i would like to have the ugly top bar gone?? is this possible?
I could definitely do with a list of widgets, and images to go with them. There's about 20 clocks, and dozens of message widgets. It's really hard to customise it not knowing what's what.
[hint hint, if anyone wants to do this they would be being very useful]
pretty nice theme thnks
Sence Revolution
Great theme running on my Raphael alongside Blue Eye TF3D theme. Just need to change background of Sence: I know how to delete background file etc, but do not understand 16bit bmp. files?? Photoshop offers me a choice of 8bit or 32 bit. Can anyone help me choose the correct res ?

Boring old today screen, fine-tuned for efficiency
Cool idea & nice today screen.
Mine's a totally different approach. I tried all kinds of backgrounds, but found that photo's make the text hard to read, so eventually I came back to the boring old default blue one... I expanded it to the top and bottom of the screen.

My Today screen is all about information. I want my appointments, tasks and mail notifications to be clearly readable, with important items highlighted, yet easy on the eyes - no fluorescent stuff for me. Notice the carefully chosen text colors and the everso subtle hint of font shading to make it stand out. 8) (ok I know, I'm so full of it... :roll: )
The icon console in the Wisbar top bar is my own design. I tried to make it as compact as possible, to allow for a lot of running program icons next to the start button.
There's four scrollable rows of program shortcuts in the Program bar.
Might experiment with skinning a little more, it's fun.
i like the wisbar plug-in do you know where i can get it for free :wink:

It's Wisbar Advance 2. Skinning it yourself is not too difficult; I made my taskbar and taskbar icons with Photoshop. But there's plenty of cool skins available, like the ones from Juni.
I've found that with Wisbar Advance 2.0, my resources are very low and it slows down the entire ppc. Anybody else with this problem? I love the various looks I can make, but because of it being so memory intensive, I've opted, for now, to not run it.
I'm with rsbenedict on this one. I've tried wisbar a few times, but it always seems to slow my device to a crawl. Has it improved recently?
WISBAR has been improved, try it for me no slowdowns
Skinners are getting better and better. I personally like this one as it matches my unit casing.
Hey Nomadman, what app are you using to pick up the news story?
Q.
CHECK OUT NEW WEATHER APP & THREAD! (This Thread Retired) ODSHOWeather.CAB (8-07-08)
**Note**Thnx to Rafer,NRG/Z28,Pudgedaddy, Luckybandit!!!
WE HAVE A NEW WEATHER APP!!!! IT IS BETTER AND MORE EFFICIENT
CHECK OUT THE NEW THREAD!!!
Updated: (7-08-2008) ODSHOWeather v1.0.2b (8:37 p.m.)
Please read all instructions before posting. Thanks.
Showaco, I are happy to bring you what will be one of the final installments of the weather panel. I have worked on testing this thing for a while. The new addition is the radar page to the forecast panel. This includes a new app that is included in the cab. It's called Weather Radar. It is located as your right soft key link. Just click it from your phone to set it up. This is a separate app that runs in our panel, but is not required to use the panel at all. I just included this, because it is frickin' sweet. Just input your location and it shows an updated radar image for your area that is updated by the NOAA every 6 minutes. Trust me, if you work outside for a living, this is a godsend.
Like I said, this weather radar app is not part of our weather update or any panels display properties or anything, it is simply a link to a separate (yet related) app. That's all.
With that being said. This radar page is pretty sweet. Follow the instructions below to make sure your clock weather, forecast panel, AND radar are setup properly, before you use this. Hope you enjoy, there are 4 wavs for you to check out as updated voice messages. There are 4 panel borders that you could display. You have an option for now forecast panel (lite version) and an option to display a forecast panel (full version).
Look at the 3rd url below, in it is a zip that you can use to replace your digits in your clock panel. The digits1 are the originals, the digits 2 are the HTC Diamond Font numbers. If you are curious as to what they look like, just search HTC Diamond. Luckybandit posted these, so thanks to him. In order to have these display, just rename either folder to digits and drop it in your \Program Files\Outerdepth\KPWeather folder. They will overwrite the ones you have, but don't worry, I have supplied you with both. They will not completely show up until the forecast panel update has run, so set your fupdate value to 1 in your reg, and then run the update. The location in your reg is HKLM Software\Outerdepth\KPWeather.
Lastly, we do have a banner, so you can also edit your banner's display text. It is located in the options menu as well. It will be displayed in the scrolling texts in your clock panel. ENJOY!!!!!
CHECK OUT SHOWACO'S POST #2!!!!!
Instructions:
1. Download cab from link below.
2. Copy cab to smartphone. Using explorer or Total Commander, click on the
cab. It will install. If you have downloaded the cab before, don't
worry about uninstalling it, it will do all the work itself. That's it. All installations are done.
3. Go to your weather options and set them up. Do all of the options, if you want or expect all of the features to work!!
4. Run Weather Update. It will write your forecast panel and radar. That's it.

Here's the original 320x240 sliding panel cpr file for anyone who needs it to remove cclock weather and fat panels.
Looks nice! I'll have to try it out soon.
Looks great
The thumbnails look great. I have a couple of questions:
1. Looks like you are using the fat panels. Is it possible to use just a fat panel for this, and slim panels for the rest of the panels?
2. Will you be posting a cab anytime soon that automates the installation?
Thanks.
Great job
Can't wait to load your app on my Excalibur and try it out but I am at work and need to wait until I get home since you do not have a cab file.
Looks great but !!!! Even though I have added quite a few things to my phone your installation instructions are beyond my knowledge.
Step #4? More explanation needed. Are these registry files. Are they exe files? Where do I copy them and how do I run them.
Also, one other thing that I would like you to include. When you include the new option of radar, can we choose our own radar. The local TV station has an great radar screen for mobile phones that I would like to use.
Thank for all your work,
Tim

1. In sliding panels, as of now, all panels must be same size, no exceptions. But if there is interest, it is possible to kinda create the illusion of different size panels using panel backgrounds.
2. We hope to have cab up in a few days.

To run the reg files, you need to use a reg editor, I use resco explorer which does a great job but there are others.
As for as radar, It is possible to use custom radar, but that isn't the way we were headed right now. But we will consider it.
thats sweet.....its goin on mine as soon as I get home
The one thing I might like to add it that if you have any issues after uninstalling NRG's Chome Weather , where it gives a whie screen with an error unable to find weather.exe it's because it's still stuck in your notifications queue. Run Sktools and locate your notifications and find the offending notification and check it, then remove it. This will stop that error.
I'm only mentioning this in this thread as to warn others about this possible issue just avoid any confusion that by installing outerdepth's weather app, it does not cause this error.
Locked out of Messaging
After following your directions I am unable to acces messaging on my Dash and there is no weather. Please give more detail on step 4 on how to actually "Run" and reg file. Is it an import?
You're going to have to tell me where to edit the scrolling marquee stuff. I dont see where to customize it.
Nevermind: I found it.... for anyone who wants to know, you have to edit the KPWeather.mscr file in notepad or other text editing software and locate the txt8 value about a little past half way down the page and edit it. then overwite other original .mscr
Update: Where would i go to edit the Condensed Text in the forecast panel. I want to read something else besides CWeatherODSP
Nevermind on update: I figured out how to change the condensed text in forecast panel too.... i'm such an idiot sometimes... was an easy find.

It would be nice to add that as an option in the weather options .mscr.... other folks may not be saavy enough to use a text editor. It would kinda of "idiot proof' that function
Awesome App
Congrats Outer & Showaco. It's a great app & it works flawlessly. Only suggestion I have is if it's possible to make this for normal panels (I use normal, not slim). I know it's very difficult to put that much of information on this size (and I must say the clock panel looks AWESOME) but my other panels look really fat with too large fonts.
Anyway it's just a suggestion. The app is really cool and I have to say thank you for all your hard work
Cheers
Hey Outerdepth, this is awesome. We're finally going away from CTestUIPlugin. However, after copying my weather script line for line, even down to the directory names and graphics used... I would at least appreciated a little statement that this is all possible because you're using my application But hey....

Will be done later tonight, thanks for the input. We will add a user text line that can be edited from options panel.
You may also want to edit the Title on the consensedtitle panel. It currently reads: CWeatherODSP .... which to me doesn't seem to descriptive. I personally changed it to read "7-Day Weather Extended Forecast". that seems a little more descriptive to me. Of course you can do whatever you want to it, but using the title i use or some other variation of what i use may be a little more descriptive.
Slim Panels

If possible, I would like the slim panels. I hope that there are others who would want it enough to motivate you to create the illusion you are talking about. Thanks, and waiting for the cab...
Yeah! A Real Weather App
Great job guys and will be even better when you add the "Doppler Radar" with automatic updates. Please use the newly released "Doppler Radar" for smartphones and pocketPC devices, again guys, this is a super awesome job.................!
Hi All
Since getting a Touch HD iv'e been trying to make some of my favourite programs look ok with the WVGA Resolution.
Here are 3 skins i have either made or modified that work well all keeping the Touchflo 3D Theme.
The first is an S2u2 theme (just copy the gfx folder to the s2u2 dir) and use the clock dir
Second is a quick basic Launch manager theme (copy the defaultwvga dir into the skins dir of lm
last is a Pocketcm theme , This is not my theme but i adapted to work on WVGA , The theme was created by Oumpahpah called Dark Diamond II - 2, I just resized some graphics and made the buttons work on the contact details page, I also edited the ini file to resize some of the screen placings.
There i 1 small glitch which i have yet to iron out on the sms page but it does not interfere with the working of the sms page it just bugs me its there (a white line around the SMS box)
you need to extract both the zip and the dir into the pocketcm dir and choose the
Modified Dark Diamond II 0.25c VGA theme
Also check here for a nice TF3d calendar mod
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423647
It works great and ive also managed to move the tab using the diamond TF3D editor
also from a diamond thread ive managed to change the calendar link from the homepage to thumbcal and the all people shortcut on the contacs page to pocketcm
I just wish HTC would allow us to show more Appointments on the home screen it seems a waste of the lovely screen not to fill it up
Hope these help
Edit Fixed the SMS glitch Ver2 uploaded of teh PocketCM Theme
Edit Added Thumbcal Skin (skin.diamond_WVGA.zip) just put the zip into the Thumbcal Dir
the other skins work ok but i noticed that the lines were not even on the vga Skin so this fixes that along with the images are now the correct size
New Calculator SKin
Found a great VGA Calc Skin by L.Sylvain but i admended it for WVGA
Install the L.Sylvain cab file then extract the SpbCalc_P_VGA.png file from the SpbCalc_P_VGA.zip and copy it into the windows dir
Edit 20-11 Resized the Landscape too - copy both files into the Windows Dir
Edit 21-11 Small update to the Calc Skin - Changed the pressed keys to Green which is more in line with the Touch HD Theme
08-12 removed the original calc skin as there are better versions now
The final skins are later in this thread
Calc with Grey Pressed buttons SpbCalc_P_WVGA_grey_Final.zip
calc with Green Pressed Buttons SpbCalc_P_WVGAgreen_Final.zip
Both have a condensed but i think easier layout on portrait
and a full layout on landscape
Wow, the calendar and it's tab looks VERY nice! It's late now, but I'll definitely give this a try tomorrow..thanks!
hi machmandp
do i get it right?
I can get the calendar tab in tf3d on the touch hd following the instructions given on the link you supplied?
Do I loose any other tab of the original tabs by performing thid modification?
Thanks in advance for your replies!
Ascenca
Hi
I can just give my experience and i lost no tabs when i added it
I dont use the stock tab which is why it's missing from my setup but it's available (i tried it)
Machmandp - you are an absolute star! I piddled around with the dark diamond skin when I got my HD and got so far with it but then got stuck. I've been hoping someone would sort this out as it is a very appropriate theme for the HD. Limited testing so far and although I can see your (very minor) issue on the SMS screen, everything else looks very good...so many, many thanks. I'd be interested in any further tweaks you make to this skin.
I might pick your brains on linking to different calendar/contact apps, but I'll try searching again first.
Thanks again
I put it on and took it off again because I did lose a tab - programs. I don't have time to play with it right now. It also seems to be static - in other words you get a tab displaying a calendar page but you can't actually do much more than look at the dates. You can't open and interact with the calendar for example.
Mind you that's on a very limited try and I'm happy to be corrected.
machmandp - did you by any chance slot your version into where the stock tab would have been? Also, what do you do with the locale file - I was getting IDS_Calendar_... in front of everything. Can you do more with the calendar than just look at it?
If you get a second, can you point me in the right direction for the diamond tweaks for calendar and contacts - I'm drawing a blank so far
Cheers
Hi
the link for the editor i used for the contacts and calendar links
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407777
make sure you read the whole thread as it has info for the touch HD later in the thread
I did put the calendar where the stock tab used to be but i have enabled the stock tab and it still shows so i have lost no tabs at all.
As regards to the local file you just need to download the lacales.zip from the thread and put the correct locale file into the windows dir (mine was en-us)
yep it's very static at the moment but as the page evolves i figure that it's a good thing to have it working and then i'll just have to replce the actual manila files without having to edit any again, also it's still pretty good as a quick veiw calendar
I am working on the Pocketcm skin so hopefully i'll get rid of that glitch soon
Thanks

Hi, in anticipation of getting hold of my Touch HD (when mobiles.co.uk eventually ships it on O2!) I'm been tinkering around with my Hermes.
I love the look of your S2U2 skin. I've tried to replicate it on my Hermes back down to 320x240 screen.
All seems to have worked ok except I can't get rid of the coloured overlay that S2U2 puts behind the clock. I've changed the background picture to be the one that I use across all devices (the nice blue sunray looking one from Windows 7) but it ends up with this semi-translucent bar with the clock figures and date in across the top half.
Which image file do I need to make transparent to make that go away?
Hope my post made sense.
I'll try and get some screen shots up to show what I mean.

Thanks for that; after a bit f hacking around in photoshop I've got the look I wanted.
I've attached a .rar of my modified gfx folder along with a screenshot if anyone wants to use it.
Many thanks to both who helped me in this thread. Just got to do it to my HD when it arrives now!
gfx.rar available from my Skydrive:

More Daft Questions...Sorry!
@machmandp - I have a little more time now so I'm going to have a play.
First off, I'm going to follow the Calendar hack to set up PI. Seems simple enough from the links you provided.
Then I'm going to look at linking PCM Contacts to the People Tab. How does that work for you? When you tap the contact picture does it link to the correct contact in PCM Contacts? Do the links to call or send SMS under the picture still function?
Lastly, I might give the Calendar Tab hack a go again. I followed the instructions quite carefully and am bothered that managed to lose my Programs tab. Did you copy the XML straight out of the original post? Did you mess around with the Page Order at all? Were you able to use the built in tab configurator to manipulate the tabs including the new calendar tab?
Hugely appreciate all your help so far - you've already made my day today with the fix for the PCM Contacts skin - and I'd immensely grateful for any more guidance you can offer.
Hi
Yes i copied the xml from the page but with the HD having an extra tab i put the number of the calendar page as 11 not 10
As regards to moving the tabs i had to use the diamond TF3d Configurator from the diamond forum, This works fine.
The link to Pocketcm is only for the All people softkey and not for any of the contacts but i find this works well
Hope that helps

Yes thanks, all begins to make sense now and I have the PI hack working nicely now. Did you remap the All People Softkey through SSMaPa too? Replacing POutlook.exe?
Where did you guys get that slide to unlock application with the HTC colours? is it in the skin imbeded?
The app is s2u2 by A_C (brilliant by the way)
the skin is from the first post of this thread for s2u2

Small update in the first post
Thumbcal WVGA Skin
Updated first post
calculator Skin
I've made some efforts to completely replace all the standard Windows Mobile applications on my Touch HD with finger-friendly ones that offer fluid scrolling.
Check this out:

Newest video with WAD themes:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9iV3wNMqcj8
You can also continue using TouchFlo3D together with all the other finger-friendly apps in the package!
Use SSMaPa to make them default: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407777
You can make even better skins with Wisbar Advance Desktop.
Other than Winterface, it completely replaces the today screen, offers the (imo) beautiful iPhone-like launch animation and is completely customizable.
It produces less battery drain and is more stable than Winterface.
As it completely replaces the today screen, you can embed any shortcuts, today plugins, all kinds of status icons (e.g. RSS, weather, tasks, wifi...) and you can choose whether to display the taskbar and/or bottom bar or hide them.
There are some beautiful WAD skins in this forum, but I chose to make one myself because I wanted to have the launch animations.
You have to put some effort into it but Wisbar Advance Desktop is really great and better than Winterface, in my opinion, which produced crashes and did only sit on top of the today screen instead of replacing it.
Well, back to my package. I thought I'd share it with you:

Finger friendly but not user friendly
In fact ,I don't like iphone style, just like the shourtcut on desktop
Why? It makes my Touch HD a lot easier to use! So yes, it's user friendly.
Nice ! Will be sure to test it.
If someone wants a user-friendly phone, please go buy iphone instead. The reason I bought HD was of its hardware / screen and the unlimited possibilities to change everything / code without owning a stupid mac.
Thanks again for this awesome package.

It's not the reason to do not transform the HTC in a finger friendly phone with hardware and screen that roxxxx
it's really awesome, seen on your HD. But on mine i've never seen something more unstable than Vito apps: it's a continuous crash, it runs in full screen, it takes control of the device and overrides everyting. it's a pity, since winterface has really a good look. But i have bought a wm device to HAVE control, and with winterface i feel i have an iphone in my hands
Looks really good!!
Did you add this for chat?
nice work maati might give it a try just to see what it's like....
You can also watch the video.
I will probably add Throttlelauncher and FingerMenu to the next version (ThrottleLauncher has just been updated for WVGA).
Perhaps I can also find some easy to use IM application (does Pigeon still crash?).
That's a really nice idea and an interesting set of applications. Thanks for sharing those - there are some (like TaskFacade) that I wasn't aware of before.
How do you assign TaskFacade to a button?
How on earth do you install these themes for Winterface?
There is no Skin or Theme icon in Winterface and I can't find anywhere on the net how to install a skin.
Can someone please help?

Hi Loffactory,
Tried out Easy Today Launcher v1.1.0.3 on my diamond. It works perfectly for me.
Thanks for the application
At first, thanx for the nice App....
...but i have some Trouble
My Device is a HTC Touch2 and after the installation of the ETL i can only access the Menu of the ETL when i open Settings ->Today....etc...
When I try to access the Menu directly from the Today Screen my Touch2 hangs up and freezes... The only way to bring it back is to remove the battery...
Any Idea what is wrong?
Thx a lot..... Greetings.....
In my touch viva work very good
~ I wanna change the icons exe T_T i don't like this icons.

deep respect for author,
short recommendation written on freewareppc.com by me too.
will give it out a try today.....thanks a lot

dude, don't be ridiculous, this is not iphonelike launcher...nor manila bs.
mem footprint = almost zero(well, icons), if app is xipped into rom
ZERO batt impact, ZERO cpu usage.
this is typical oldschool PDA app. cannot be smaller.
perfect app for people that cares about memory/usability.

Works fine in HD2
I might decide to dump the HTC sense and go for this and some of the other brilliant today plugins for the apps I use.
The only thing I would miss is the ability to call contacts easily.
Could contacts be also included in your today launcher?
Thanks, great job.

Great job on this app! Will promote it for ya in my ROM thread
Would it be possible to add the ability to swipe up or sideways to reveal more icons?
Also, maybe a cool effect or two when tapping icons?
Great app by the way
