Hi all, just came across a variety of images showing the below theme for WP7, just wondering if anyone knows of it? Should we be expecting this kind of theme customisation with the update(s)? Is this a photoshop job? Looks very Manilla-ish but much better than the solid colour chioces available atm.

doesnt seems real to me. But Ms said, they want to give HTC deeper access to the OS...so I do think something like this will come some day
As far as i understand, those dead tiles, uses images, over simple canvas colored with ancient color. If HTC provides non-transparent image, it will be used, to create such an effect. That doesn't even impress me. If MS will give control to change main page of the phone, iPhone will look like a brick.
It's a fake image.
I think that's a HTC HD2 with Fireslave's WP7 Throttlelauncher theme with one of the modifications that's been created for it.
Also, look at the buttons. All current WP7 phones have capacitive buttons, whereas they are hardware ones.

yes, unfortunately, this WP7 theme was a theme dreamt up by a Fanboy. i think it was what he was hoping the HD3/7 would look like. it was/is so good that some companies thought it was for real!
ahh well that's a shame. Cheers for clearing this up then. A lot of companies (particular car kit ones) are using this image, need to put some copyright on that picture!
LOL ,it has to be fake because it has a CHT/Android music player and a cut down sense weather widget .
but it still looks real cool
I will confirm it was a concept drawing...

The htc HD is an amazining piece of technology as we all agree, and as I've seen from this forum people are really making the most of it by being creative and making everthing that wasnt quite up to scratch better (the skin for the calculator, new apps etc). Though one thing I have yet to see which is also something I feel lets down the device astheticly is the unlock screen. we all know the one, it's part of windows mobile and looks as if it's been drawn on ms paint, a bit of a let down. I searched the forums, and other sites and seen the likes of throtle lock, and S2U2 but to be honest if I wanted something like an iPhone I would have got an iPhone. Idealily I'd love something that fits in with touchflo 3d, perhaps something resembling the phone dailer, and not a new lock program simply a skin for the old one. So I was wondering has anyone made such a thing or if not is anyone now interested in making one, I'm sure this will be something that will be highly popular with HTC users as it'll help the device look more complete and well rounded rather then seem like theres been bits overlooked by the developers.
below are the images of what we currently have and what I'd like it to resemble

Go for it!
Hell ya!
Why is it so difficult? I really like to see a simply remodified skin for the standard lockscreen. We have tons of skins for kinda everything (including senseless stuff).
For me it is very important to use the look, because if I loose my HD, nobody should call with it or read important stuff about work/privacy.
Hmpf.
Bye,
The Hopeless-one.
I have seen such a skin, but unfortunately it was on the kaiser and it was a wm6.5 rom. i will do a little digging myself see what pops up and what i can create...
watch this space!
leebaber, you've hit the nail on the head with this one!
I have always found it weird nobody has skinned the horrible lock screen!
A Manila-looking screen would look awesome
k1nn34r, I'm watching eagerly!
if someone can solve this they'd be my HERO!!
HTC has done it somehow - it was much better looking e.g in Dutty's 3.3XT ROM - so its possible -I am not technical enough to know which files and how to change them.
Yes, the one in Dutty's V3.3 rom is perfect! I loved the skin that was used! Sadly it has been removed for whatever reason in his latest V3.4 rom. I've already requested (along with some others) a cab or the files to get it back to the skinned version.
Really hoping something comes of this as I to use the lock screen and prefer it over the Iphone look.
Will be keeping an eye on this thread!
I'm using Dutty's 3.3, how is this unlock screen much different from the original?

Why don't you compare yours with the screen shot of the ugly stock one above...you should see the glaring difference.
Microsoft's set the internet ablaze with new information about the Windows Phone 7 Series which was unveiled at the Mobile World Congress today at Barcelona.
The pictures and videos are pouring in and I'm here to help organize some of this mess for everyone.

My thoughts exactly. Let's hope some form of 'skinning' is possible.
It's very ugly..Zune HD like....
Super ugly !!!
The homescreen is ugly, but the rest of the OS is very elegant and simple. You guys should watch demos on youtube you will be blown away. MS said that there gonna be tight on OEM customization, but I think their still gonna allow some customization for OEM to stand out from the competition. You guys REALLY need to try out the demo site: http://www.windowsphone7series.com/
i think also it is nice and clear - thats what i want - no overfilling with buttons and things from tabs and options on the "homescreen"
it remember me more of that TouchOne skin - where u move up - down - left and right to reach specific screens instead of using a tabsborder. people often forget that we use such phones also in cars and while walking - so we need a sure and failsafe surface with not to small buttons (at least less).
if anybody knows a good and fast! UI for Wm6.5 let me know - new sense is nice looking but still i search for something simplier to use/touch UI
First impressions...
It looks overly simplified, and more like an art project - or a set of 'design placeholders' that mark areas still needed to be finished in detail.
I question a lot of real-life interactivity with the device, it seems a little silly having the text of the hub cropped off screen.
It wouldn't surprise me if the the API's for this are very basic (aka. simple gadgets) - I have a feeling this isn't designed to run apps in the traditional sense.
The first Toshiba phone "IS12T" running WP7.1 will be released in Japan in september.

Looks good, I like it

Link to its launch video.. beautiful lady in the end..
So, does this mean that either a) we are going to have more color options for themes in Mango final, or b) handset makers are now able to set their own theme colors? Because some of the system tile colors in this video and other photos of this new phone are clearly not what we have today (like the gray - I want gray!).

Well, I know Orange UK had their own colour (I bet you can't guess what it was...) which was different to the standard colours - so, yeah, I'm sure OEMs can if carriers can.

There was a phone in there ?
She is a dude ;D.
It reminds me a lot of Droid X because of the buttons .
Looks great. I'm all for durable phones.

Sorry bro its a college students drawing of what they want it to look like. Cool though.
All but the buttons look cool.

Deebo took your bike too?
1080p screen?lul.
I was posting it because I love the widget. Someone needs to make a widget like that.
I do graphic art so I do have a good understanding of how Photoshop works.
Here is one of my pieces....
love the buttons
Why thank you. This was a concept piece for my work, so I had to remove a bunch of stuff off of this image before posting it because of copy rights.
The firs phone looks far too thin, and looks too much like a galaxy s II
That dangerously thin, where it would be a liability to the durability of the device. Unless it were made of really strong material
Bad concept imo

That looks awesome, I like everything on it.
I wish I knew how to code so I could develop a widget just like that clock one! Otherwise, the phone looks great!
i do like the concept of the on screen keys being themed. Would be awesome if you can flash different zips to change the color and style. I'm looking foward to a phone that you can increase the screen size without increasing the phone size by removing the softkeys and using that area for screen
I'll take that clock any day...
Are there any DEV's that would be willing to make that clock? I would even pay for that clock! I am a graphic artist and would be more than happy to help. PM me if you can, should be simple I think, just take a regular clock apk and add in the day and night feature to rotate and maybe more.
Sup people, id like to introduce myself, I'm a hobbyist 3d artist and graphic designer. "Not so much good at the design part" but for now on im gonna "try" to design wallpapers, lock screens, and Themes optimized for the Nexus 7. I'm not very proficient in coding but I have a friend who both has the nexus 7 and is a semi recognized developer here on XDA. "you probably know him he is the creator of Dandroid" "I actually came up with that name =P"
Here is just a few things I have done "I know not impressive yet" But at least it gives me some credibility to what im saying.

If at all possible since im new here anyone can suggest things that are worth developing for on the nexus 7 id be very grateful.
I know zilch about coding or desinging 3d models but I will say that
a lot of the design work I've seen on here tend to lead toward
embossed, shiny, 3D-like styles. The pictures you posted look pretty decent,
I would like it even more if you had the green in a lighter shade though like
the original androids colour. Anyway this is going a bit off topic but I think it would be interesting to
see how you can merge 3D design skills into things like wallpapers
and lock screens and also into future apps your friend can help you develop.
We have a Themes and Apps subforum for this kind of thing.
Good luck with your wallpapers. And welcome to xda
As you seem to have posted some images already ive moved this thread to themes. If you add more wallpapers to the thread rather than start another it keeps things tidy
Regards
Chris

Thanks and sorry for being such a noob, I always seem to be this way when I enter an unfamiliar "to me" community, ill try to be more aware of things like this.
Anyway Here is some of my other work, I used to be more into Gundam 3d modeling so here is some of my more impressive work that isnt client work. "sorry ahead of time, I haven't enough posts so add links yet".

Ive also made other things like tablet designs and such a while back "This is a pic of when a tablet was unheard of" This is what my vision at the time a tablet should be.
