Where can I find or make my own dialer skins? On the upgrade in the o2 active you have the ability to change dialer skins, but I can't seem to find where they are located.
Sorry zabes where are you referring to in the ability to change dialer skins?
On the XDA II I think the dialer sking is a collection of a dozen of so *.jpg files that live in the windows directory.

Dialler Skin
Hullo,
Here's two of my Dialler Skins made using some excellent wallpaper from the net and V2R's Skin Creator.
Free to all, you will need to install the PSK Installer.exe from http://www.ppc-club.com/

I'm not sure if the PSK Installer can handle depressed buttons. For unknown reasons, Microsoft decided to store the skin as a set of image files - except for the depressed key, which is a resource inside a DLL. I made two DLLs for two of the better known skins. If you have access to a resource editor, you can change those to whatever you want.
This issue has been discussed in this forum earlier, use the Search feature to find the thread. And here's the URL to my two DLLs (sorry, German only): http://www.tadzio.com/ppc/index.html

YUP! Your depressed buttons dlls are also really good but I'm glad you popped in to make them known again.
My choice is the Candy red DLL for these skins really as it really makes the skins look good on the device.
Maybe you can help me to design some more depressed buttons in different shapes, let me show you what I mean...
In the attached image, you can see the round buttons, the problem here is that the depressed button dlls are the normal round corner rectangle shape, which makes the skin look less good on the device.

I can certainly help you, but you can also do that yourself. You need to find a program that can edit resources inside an executable file (DLL counts as executable). Many Borland IDEs can do that, as well as Visual Studio. I'm sure there are other resource editors as well, I just don't know them.
So, all you need to do is open the only bitmap resource in one of my DLLs, edit it, then write it back to the DLL.
Again, if you want me to, I can also help you and put some images into a DLL. Just email me the images (as BMP files).
Cheers
Daniel
Thanks Daniel,
I'm going to get an editor on my machine and give it a go. Thanks for the help.

Got the PE Explorer resource editor which is nice.
Extracted your candy red icon file, now I just need a nice icon maker! haha
I also found that you if clear the registry setting for the depressed button, then the phone skin won't show any depressed state, while not as pretty as the depressed button it's another option.

1. The dialer skins above workd gd, but does anyone know how 2 change them apart from manuly, by clicling on the skin wer it is saved at my documents.??
2. Has any1 got the serial 4 V2R Skin2Chose 2.0, and if yes how can i get hold of free skins?
http://www.yorch.net/apps.htm
this is a free skin chooser
asking people for seriel nr.s in this forum is bad taste since many people who come her make programs and you just might end up asking people if they got a seriel so you can nick their software
if you use yorch's skin chooser then the skins must be put in
the dir called skin in the path you have installed the program
Ooops! lol :lol: didnt kno that I shouldnt do that! Well new member sooo!
By the way thanx the link al try now!
Actualy this is very useful n free thanx a lot, im done now, dont need 2 crack that anymore. lol
Rudegar,
Is the Yorch Skin Chooser XDA II/MS Mobile 2003, compatible?
Yes, it works great with WM2003
i av a problem with this XDA Skin Chooser, when a click on ACTIVATE a little windonw comes up sain: Activating... then a click OK n go 2 check the new skins that i apply but they not there, the original one comes up.
Any idea y??
Yep, you need to perform a soft-reset in order to actually activate the skin, mate...
I did the softreset bt still on ma original skin................?!?!
Hi, I just uninstalled the PSK Installer (didnt try any skin), but I´ve lost the Windows default skin, and I have now a new blue one.
Does any one know hoy I can try to make this change again?
I have the XDA Phone Skin Chooser, which used to work fine, but now it doesn´t change this blue new one.
Any ideas? :roll:
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
very nice !
But could you give the 'Talk' and 'End' buttom a shade of green and red, so that it's easier to answer and hang up a call ?
Torsten
Good work. I like it
Here is a screenshot
I also tried the Magneto skin, that unluckly has no indialer skin. So i mixed the great indialer of this skin, with the pads of magneto one (only in portrait mode).
This is the result
Well guys i've just updated the colours of the talk+end buttons as requested above. hope you like the change.
another thing, i've got screenshots attached but somehow they don't show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aladin, That's a very good work. I like it very much!
And, the picture files looks much smaller than the original picture files. This help to save some space on my O2 XDA II mini.
If possible, keep them as small as possible. Also, I notice because the picture files is smaller, it is help to launch phone quicker than before.
Thanks again man!
Best regards,
Arto
anyone tried it with German Version of intelli dail
very nice with the red and green add-on.
Thanks a lot !
Torsten
Hi Aladdin,
When I press the 1,2,3......*,# button, the button change to the original button. The shape and color is different from your dial-pad skin. Is there something missing?
Call History, Speed Dial, Talk and "<--" button is OK.
Best regards,
Arto.
The original "whenpressed" button cannot be changed
editing the pressed button
Thats not correct. You have to edit tapres.dll (you can find it in your windows-folder) with reshacker.
how the hell do u change the skin
i see all of you have bn chnaging the skin how the hell do u do it?
very nice skins
ne1?
no1 want to share their secrets on how to make their skin? common a lil help would be nice!
by all means mate you can go ahead and change your dial skin. just download the files i've attached, find the equivalent in your \Windows directory and change them in photoshop or any graphics program you like. it's really that simple you just need to spend a bit of time on it that's all oh, and a little bit of creativity would be a bonus
peace
(probably not with blair and bush still around)
nice skin .. aladdin1001 .. love it so much..
i downloaded since it first posted here .. hope you can work on another intellidialer skin or even intellipad skin..

Hi mate,
Please tell me, I've been looking for this and tried your suggestion without success.
Do you mean using "Reshacker" (a windows App) to edit the tapres.dll (the dll file in my o2 mini) ?
I tried, and it did not work. I tried moving / copying the tapres.dll file to my local harddisk (on PC via activesync), so i could attempt to edit it, and the system wouldnt allow me, saying something abt ROM files cannot be copied..
could you please elaborate on your method??
I've got some dialskins copied to my /Windows dir and the only issue now is as mentioned by bros above.. ie. when i press the numeric pads, the original blue keys still shows..
please enlighten me.
THANKS!!!!!

I finally got tired of the ugly dialer skin that comes with t-mobile roms. I know there is a cingular one out there and I have found a few other sites with limited skins. Well I thought I would give it a try and make my own Photoshoping part came easy, but I don't really have a clue on creating .cab files at all.
I created a test run skin of the oh so fine, Scarlett Johansen. Please feel free to download and give feedback. I will be creating some more in the future.
Also, if anyone out there is a wiz on creating cab files, any help you could give...
And one last thing... anyone know where to find TRUE windows mobile 5 themes?!
Thanks,
Jess
Thanks - is it possible to give screen shots please. WM5 true themes are rare - i've not found a site that does them. Look in 'My today screen' thread in this forum - i've posted a few including one recent.
Use Ben Thon's themegen ce to create true wm5 themes and look at microsoft's guava bubbles.tsk to see how its done properly.
screen shot
I don't have anything installed on my wizard to take a screen shot, but I'll try to make a mock up on photoshop and post it.
unless anyone out there can suggest a good screen capture utility?
Thanks, and that's for the support!

A complete theme package
I have found how windows mobile 5 themes are created now after examining some files. therefore I think imma build a total theme package. today theme, dialer skin, and ringtones. If I'm feeling really adventurous, maybe media player skins as well??
so I was thinking a superman theme or starwars, etc.
Any ideas anyone?
I figured it as time I gave some back to the wizard community!

Well put together jess - good job! (not sure my wife will like it though lol!)
btw how did you create the wooden dialer buttons? - i tried to for a wooden dialer i was putting together and just could not get them right. Yours look good might pinch them for my own! lol One comment though - i feel the talk button should be in green not red :wink:
Your cab seems well put together the only hint is to get rid of the initial destination dialog - see here on how to change xml file to do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=60772
Windows media player skins are easier than phone dialers see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=58398
look forward to more skins
Jess,
Looks good so far. I have poked around with some of the same stuff you are now. I did it all when I had WM2003SE because that is all that was out then. I found that the OS didn't always want to display the images correctly. and would bounce back to the system default for some of the buttons, mostly when you pushed them down and while you were in a call.
I hope for your sake you can over come the issues I fought then and begin making your own dialer skins.
You also may want to take a look at http://paulya.com/etenskins.htm He has created some skins for the Nice looking E-Ten dialer. It works seamlessly with my 8125 and I loooovvvveeee the way that the skins handle much better than the defaults. I'm pretty sure that the images work very simillarly. Give it a look.

Could you throw a leopard skin background on that, my wife would love that on her 8125. If you need a picture let me know, I have one in particular that she'd like.
Thanks and good work.
I would like to second the request for a leopard print one!!!
Leopard skin
A leopard print skin... sure thing! I am finishing finals so it will be a few days, but hopefully this next week or two I can get a website up for posting theme files.
Post an example jpg of a leopard print if you like.
BTW, still wondering if anyone out there is a savvy cab file creator, Im using a GUI right now that works ok, but for test purposes only and expires soon.
-Jess
hi jess
may i ask u 4 something
could u b so kind to explain how 2 do it ourselves
this way i can use private photoes and prepare some 4 my friends
thanks again
I'm in the process of creating a leopard skin total theme (dialer, smart dialer, today theme, ringtones) for those of you who asked. After that I am gonna have to build a more manly one lol. It will be available shortly ( like I said, finishing finals for summer term! )
Guys, gimme any ideas for a complete theme!
For those of you who enquired about how to do this yourself... keep in mind, im not using some little app that makes this simple, like a theme generator or anything. There are files and registry values associated with the dialer skin and the smart dialer. Just replacing these these will work, but it's difinately better to create a new directory with new files names and then reference them with new registry values. This way if you goof up or wanna change anything back, you can do so without a hard reset.
I started this lil project because I have searched and searched for true mobile 5 themes and dialer skins with little or no luck. I am very glad to see so many interested. I will certainly share the information to anyone that likes, I just wanna make sure you know what you are getting yourself into
hi jess
god my wife was going to kill me , "who is that girl and y z she opssing in ur phone?"

Green WM theme?
Hi Jess.
My suggestion for another "complete" theme (Dialer skin, Today themes, etc etc) would of course be an all WM5 Greenish style theme.... I already have the "HTC_default" green today theme, but it seems kind of lame to have the blue background on everything else...
If my wish could be taken under consideration, I'd be a happier man. :lol:
I am working on a few at the moment...
One a leopard print style another windows vista style.
I am however having set backs, since I just installed vista RC1 and am working out some kinks.
Thanks for the input and patience, Jess
is there a patch for the cingular 8525 to make it look like vista? i've seen the skinning stuff, looks to involved ( to many programs ). thanks LuXx
I am running wisbar advanced, and I have a great vista theme that I would be happy to upload, or I can try and find where I originally found it. doesn't take up too many resources, and it has a _ton_ of customization

I see from your Avatar that your sporting the new Hermes headset. It's nice 'cos it doesn't require the Bluetooth connection - you just tuck the Hermes inside next to your ear and away you go; and with Wifi on it keeps your ear warm as well. I've heard a rumour that there's a dual core Hermes with twin hand-sets that keeps both ears warm. Bit itchy though??

Not sure what the problem is, Zgembo was able to get it extracted and working. Are you just extracting the whole folder onto your desktop (or somewhere) and then moving it over to the phone?
Exactly, simple as cake... Just copy two file to any folder of your phone, and run it... Dialer (bigger .cab file) is just an option, instals as standard application... Skin (.tsk file) is very compact, and just double click it to add it to phone's themes... You can delete these files after installation...

Excellent phone skin! I love it!
i found the site where the nice dialer was from:
http://www.paulya.com/dialerskins.htm
he appears to have E-TEN dialers with Smartdial (scroll down to the bottom round classic) It states the "Blackglass" has smartdial. Anyone try that out on a TyTN?
Anyone know how to fix the AeroMobile.tsk theme to support the Portrait mode? When I slide out my keyboard, the skin should strech but doesn't. I tried to fix it with MS Theme Generator, but no luck... Any suggestions? I'm using Pocket PC 2002 Theme Generator V2, as that seems to be the last release from MS.

I have been doing some hunting and I am struggling to find any VGA phone dialer skins. I use the standards windows mobile dialer to save memory and make the phone more responsive.

Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Is not Carbon but is completly baclk and i love it, personaly.

----------------------------------------------------
i like it a lot as it is but there are a number of things you might want to consider:
1-i think an extra raw of apps can be added while keeping the the finger friendliness.
2- make it startable as an executable or soft key from tf3d hoome or button
3- option for discovravle mode blutooth
4- make it easy to change default apps
ohh btw, why is it relatively big 1.6mb for an app starter. can it be redused? mabe change the color depth or something
It's mostly the skin. The original application uses a sucky compression. There's no way I can reduce it and to me, 1.6mb is squat.
"Shutdown" gives an error (it didn't with smaberg's):
"Couldn't find PowerOFFLNK.lnk or PowerOFFEXE.exe"
Also "Calculator" gives the waiting icon and then nothing - I probably either have to edit the shortcut to windows default calculator or find HTC calculator from somewhere... Any ideas where to get the one that works with this setup?
Is the editing of application paths the same as with smaberg's? BIOTOUCH etc?
I actually like this one more then smabergs one, but it still isn`t perfect. Would it be possible to create a setup tool which would allow you to edit all the buttons?
I can`t imagine it being too hard since it`s just a few reg changes you would have to make?
//edit: I would love to make it myself but I guess it would take ages (at least, maybe longer) before I would be done.
However, if anyone knows the command you have to pass to the text client to automatically start the message for a certain person I would be more then pleased .

I'll fix it in 1.1.
And yes, the calculator points to HTCCalculator. As this is based on smaberg's app, the paths are edited the same way.
You can download the HTCcalculator from this forum.

Creating that setup tool would take me longer than it would take you (and everyone else) to find out how to edit it.
Also, you'd only be able to edit the execute paths, not the icons (skin).
And I don't know the parameter for a certain person (even if it's possible).

Thanks in advance for the help, I really appreciate it.
//edit: I managed to create a cab, actionscreens rock
Great. Thanks for 1.1.
I found the HTC Calculator and now everything not only looks great but also works
I actually managed to create a cab. Furthermore, I was able to make a shortcut for a sms contact (well technically it`s a number, but it stands for a contact)
The shortcut should be to tmail.exe and its parameters are:
Code:
-service """sms""" -to """the number"""

Hehe, nice one. Making cabs isn't hard, just use WINCE cab mgr.
great app and good things added to smabergs port
but i think with this u can do so much more.
beginning with the skin. the shadowsong skin doesnt fit on any x1 and the manila skin is boring for me.
i really like to give a contribution to this app in form of a new skin/design
but i dont know how to do it. can u pack all the image files in 1 rar and upload it here so i can modify them?
thnx in advance
(oh and sry for bad english...)
just a word of advice to all who use this app.. I have american x1a and used phone (babied) it was pwerfect, until i tried to take battery cover off and inadvetantly put a finger on the power button while leveraging it off. my power btton sunk in and jammed, staying with no way of extracting. cost me 185 to repair via sony, they formatted my phone and were less than helpful... DONT ABUSE UR POWER BUTTON! IT MAY JAM!

I vote +1 for "funniest post in the X1 forum". xD
Oh, and Kid_DC, the shadowsong skin fits perfectly with my TF3D shadowsong theme
I know what you mean though. I've already improved the black skin a bit.
The skin files are installed to your \windows\AnX1\Actionscreen folder, they're .brn files. You can find a converter brm <-> bmp here on xda.
and why do u use brm, when u first have to convert them?
are they smaller?
