Hi,
some of you know DesignLab http://mobil.designlab.de/skins.shtml They created the XDA Skin Chooser. I installed it on my MDA II yesterday and want to delete it now. Everything is de-installed (application itself and most of the skins, I think) only one is left! Also using Recso Explorer and searching at the Registry won't show me the last one: the one you can see when having a look at your last calling list.
Right now I need your help. I love "clean" systems and therefor I really want to delete EVERYTHING of XDA Skin Chooser http://www.handango.com/PlatformPro...A7ionId=0&productType=2&siteId=1&platformId=2
Please tell me where elese I can take a look...
Thanx very much...
Did it work OK
Hi,
Can't help with the de-installing bit - Sorry
However I just want to ask did the 'XDASkinChooser' software work OK on a XDA II, I want to change my skin but want to make sure the software works OK first. Handango where I downloaded it from said it was for the XDA only not the XDA II.
Good luck with the de-install
It depens on the fact if you have installed it in the default map.
I installed it om my storage card. There you get several folders, one of them called the XDAsinchooser. with an empty skin subfolder. There are also other folders created, called wood and chrome, with a subfolder skin.
Anyway: look where the pictures are in the subfolders. The subfolder containing the pictures must be moved to the skin subfolder in the XDAskinchooser folder.
I have only added the wood and chrome folder and added a Kyliekin folder. All the rest I removed using the programm deinstaller in the setting>...etc
When installing the xdaskinchooser on your XDAII choosing to install on your storagecard, you'll be prompted if you want to replace several items by older ones. I tried several times not to. But that doesn't work.
When choosing replace all. Everything's OK.
Works fine for me on my Qtek 2020 (=XDAII)
Otherwise use the XDAskinchooser to install the default one and then deinstall all...
By then you must have your orriginal skin back. Also on your last call list.

Hi
I just found out I have a little problem with my camera. It works perfectly but when cleaning up after all the installation its seems I deleted some of the templates used by the cam. Now I can't do a "picture theme" anymore as I have no templates for it.
Can somebody send me one from his, I only need one to avoid that nasty error when switching through the cam modes. You should find them on you PC in the synced MyDocuments folder under Templates.
Thank you very much.
Please with sugar on top.
I got this from someone in another thread not that long ago. The originals aren't there, but quite a few good replacements...
Just extract the cab file and chuck it on!
Lovely, thank you so much. That are way enough, I only need very few since I dont use that feature at all yet and I dont want to fill my ram with such things. But since I deleted them (dont know why) switching through my cam modes caused an error that no templates are there when reaching picture theme.
Do they install into the My Documents\Templates folder?

HELLO cowboy, I had the same problem few days a go ( see my post http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=28308&highlight= )
U just have to put this gif file inside the folder named Models (my documents > models >) and all will work fine...
Pay attention with file syncronisation...wt you erase on the pc folder will be erased on your Magician.
Cheers
Placido
Actually I found out it can be any gif file of those templates so you can chose a few that you actually may use someday. Those two are not really very useable, esp the large flashing one. That downloadable cab contains a few very nice that will work too.
so i see that there is a blue angel rom with "true" crossbow sound theme.. im wondering if neone has these files id like to use them on the wizard. dont care so much bout the icons but want the sounds!
Can't remember which thread this was posted in, but here it is again.
thats only the ringtone......im looking for the system sounds and such
The ringtone file is the only thing I've seen posted in the forums.
After the mess with Palm over posting the PhotoDialer .cab and with Apple over the iPhone mock-up screen, if there ever WAS a posted file with the other system sounds it's probably had to be removed now too. But, if it WAS ever posted, I never did see it -- and I scour these forums every day.
This is the soundpack I have - I have it and have no idea where/when I got it. It has the same name as the zip posted here and has the same file plus a whole lot more. I think it's standard with the AKU 3.2.
-Mc
thank you thank you
Anyone have any ideas on using the new sounds. I can't replace the files in \Windows, and cannot alter there attributes. I'm assuming you must build a ROM to use them.
I have a sounds folder in "My Documents" on my PPC and there is already a sounds folder in Application Data. Put them there and the system will recognize them. No need to replace the other ones...
-Mc
None of those work. The system still uses the files in \windows.
Try using Total commander to overwrite the files.
i used windows exploere and overwrote off the pc
You cannot just change the sounds i'm afraid, that's not worked since back in WM2002, you have to change the registry entries related to the sounds...
I reccomend a nice little commercial app (no links) called "Soundz Cool". It's a Windows based application that runs on your PC, which connects to any WM powered PDA, and pulls the sound settings from the registry. you can then edit them, and copy them back to your PDA with your own custom sound effects. Soundz Cool will even remove unused files it's copied across before to kepp your PDA clean.
Hope this helps you all, coz it took me ages to find such an application...
Here is a wait animation package for WM6 with 10 cursors and an install mortscript. Same animations used by Juryduty for his WM2003 cursors. I have 25 of these I've done, this package only contains 10 because they're kinda big.
EnJoy!
Nice! Thanks!
Will this work on WM5? is there a possibility to let this work or a same programm for WM5? please tell me..
Thank you! very nice!
didnt work well on my mogul. wouldn't uninstall, had to hard reset.
for WM5 try here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317476
this script will probably work for them, but you'd have to edit it if the resource name is different , and rename them 'filename.wait' then zip them to wait.zip.
the resource name for WM6 is 'shellres.96.dll' you'd have to find out about WM5 and make the corresponding changes in the script 'waitskins.mscr'.
As far as having to hard reset, did you mean soft reset? This sometimes happens to me randomly after installing a cab and can happen with any cab. I don't think it has anything to do with the cab, but more to do with the state of your device when you install it.
At any rate all this cab does is copy some files to 'programs\waitskins' (or 'storage card\programs\waitskins')and 2 shortcuts to windows\start menu\programs.
The script uses Mortscript4.01b12. It unzips the skins, copies the selected one, deletes the unzipped files, and tells you to do a soft reset. Thats it. Hardly anything to worry about.
it didnt work well with my very top bar in my today screen. after i installed the cab my clock, speaker icon, and signal icon were messed up. i couldnt change the icon back to the origanal wm6 after i changed it to one of the 10 you provided. after that i uninstalled and it wouldnt go back to the wm6 icon. i finally HARD reset my phone and had a fresh backup from earlier that day. no biggie, i may have installed wrong. i would like to get this to work, i may try again. thanx tho, Jody
The icons problem happens when the file hasn't been signed. I've signed all these and they work on my COOKED WM6 device. maybe your device doesn't like the certificate I used. I really don't know for sure.
When this happens you should be able to run the waitskins program, select CANCEL and this will delete any skins on your system, then a soft reset will get you back to the default thats built into your rom. then an uninstall.
Sorry about your hard reset...but since you just barely did it you might want to test this again and find out if the problem is with ALL of the skins, and weather or not the above tip saves you from another hard reset.
thanks for the feedback and if you test this any further please let me know what you find out.
Joeman
work for me (wizard wm6), but I can't change back to the original one , the cancel just change the cursor to the latest one.
It will be good if you attached more skin here.included the original one.
thank
thanks nice one
I would like to complain because I am an a$$. But I cannot, these are a great choice of icons. Anyone with WM6 aught to give it a try.
Great work!
Finally I tried these awhile back but would not work!! They are awesome! Thank you!
I found the original cursor here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1451996&postcount=37
& try to change name to "original.wait" then add to zip. after running it's work ,but have error at the top bar icon as oakwestplayer comment.
any comment
nice cursors, thanks
bit off topic, but that m & m dance looks more like "Cool Spot" to me
anyone remember the old megadrive/genesis game.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cool_Spot
ong9:
Looks like the file needs to be signed.
Look for a tool in this forum called "multiple file signer' and use it to try to sign the file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306982&highlight=multiple+file+signer
If the file signing failed then try to find the 'file Unsigner', and unsign it then sign it again.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329160
This has worked for me.
The multiple file signer lets you choose from 3 different certificates, if one doesn't work try the other two.
If this doesn't work for you then I don't know what to tell you.
Good luck!
Joe
BTW Funy yes that IS cool spot, (LOL) I didn't even notice the .GIF name but in the package I've called him COOL SPOT! Guess that's why I've seen that animation with the color changed (green blue etc.). I don't even think it looks like the M&Ms (must be the sunglasses), that's probably why I didn't make the connection. Good eye!
Heres my first TF3D theme. I was going to change more of the icons/buttons etc but just didnt have the time....Feel free to make additions to it, you got a month left
If you dont know how to install .theme files search for tf3d config
btw, thx to NisseDILLIGAF for his blood lol
looks great man! i love the icons
Having trouble using this cool theme
I downloaded the file, I unzipped the file, I extracted the file to my PC. I use XP. I copied the extracted file to my phone's internal memory under Pictures and I can't see it when I look for it in my phone.
Also, I can't open it on my PC, it says it's not "a valid theme."
Any suggestions? Total NOOB question, I know, but that's what I am at this point with this phone.
Thanks! Ellen

You need to change the last part in the name halloween.zip to halloween.theme
And you also need this app TF3D config, to set it as your theme. You'll find it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405749
Everyone has been a noob in there lifetime
WOW....love this theme, nice little touches like the spider webs behind the program icons, little pumpkins on the favourite people, great icons, grave stones and all...well done...10/10
Glad you liked it
My wife loves this theme on her diamond!

Wow. Maybe I'm just cursed but nothing is working. I changed the name of the file as you suggested, still nothing. Windows claims it is not a valid theme file.
Then I downloaded Diamond TF3D Config Setup v0.6.7.CAB per your advice above, and I can't find anything to open THAT file, either.
I had the Instinct prior to this phone and I am afraid the Diamond is waay over my head with regard to tweaks. I sure would like to come up to speed, though. I am using the Sprint issued Diamond with the burgundy flat back. If that makes any difference.
Can anyone help me with this? I want so much to be able to tailor this phone with cool themes, etc.
Thanks! Ellen
i love this theme very much thx for sharing
Absolutely kicks butt! Sprint Diamond users, delete tweak.xml from TF3D folder to make app work.
I love your Theme!
Odd, though, the last number on my clock flips back and forth from old format to new theme. What do you suppose could be causing that?

as a nightmare before christmas fan is that the best theme fo me. but is it possible to create a cab only for the tf3d slider icons? i love it and i need it rolleyes:
hi all
Im new to here but also just purchased a HTC Diamond Touch. I previously had a P3600i.
Im really liking the new TF3D program however there are a couple of things that are driving me mental. EG - calender not showing upcoming events...
Now im not to good at the understanding of tweaking programs etc however is there a way I can have this?
Also I have SPB Mobile Shell and I used this for a while. I love this program however find that the battery life is drained within a day of using this (something TF3D doesnt do). I tried to add a new skin last night but it didnt work and now im wondering whether im doing something wrong.
Is someone able to give me step by step instructions on either how i can tweak TF3D to give me upcoming calender dates or how I can add different skins....
Man i really do sound new!!
Hi Noobie!
See this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497197. It should tell you everything you need to know/have. I use it & it's great. I currently have an appointment on my today screen for 2 July.....
for themes.... some come in cab files and you should copy these to your internal storage and open it via file explorer
for .theme files.....
download TF3D configurator, download themes and put the .theme file into a folder somewhere on your internal storage..
when you open TF3D configurator, go to the second tab, and there's a drop down menu on the top right to select the folder where you're themes are, once you've selected a theme it'll give you the option to install it.... hey presto .... a new theme!
hope it helps
thanks so much! ill have a look at the other page and will have a go at the themes!!
