Hey Guys,
I had a couple of questions I hope you could help me out with.
In Spb Weather, how do you go about changing the text color. Currently it is black, so if I use a dark colored theme it is next to impossible to read.
Also, and probably not so simple, in MS Voice Command what are the steps that need to be taken in order for me to interact via my BT Headset and not the speaker phone.
Thanks,
Alex
Forget about the Voice Command question, I found the answer in another thread.
Have you got the beta of spb weather (v1.5)?
After i upgraded to v1.5 the text colour changes with the colour scheme in the current today theme.
If you still only have v1.1.1 contact spb weather and they will happily send you the updated version.
Cheers,
Chris
Grab it here. Beta Spb Weather 1.5 Zip.
Thanks! That got it working perfect.

i have an alltel branded 6800. i am looking for a program that simply changes my theme colors without having to manually load a .tsk file everytime. I used mobile shell for a long time and it worked wonderfully for this exact task (read: this is the sort of software i am looking for) but shell was really buggy on my phone and just generally annoyed me. can anyone recommend a program that just switches the colors like mobile shell did? thanks in advance.
change theme color
go to http://freewarepocketpc.net and search for rc mod v2.1 it will change your colors and you can change all your text also.i just went to the site and did a search and it wouldn't find it but it is around page 34 if you want it it works great for me.

hello guys, i was wondering if there was an alternative to the current lame blue dialer theme/skin we have for our wings, as well as for the recent call list....
any cabs out there that can change that up....? i recall one that had it as all mostly black, with a little bit of blue for the name of last call, but can't find that one...just want to know the name?
Yes, the HTC Dialer Skin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326655&highlight=HTC+Dialer+skin Its in the 2ns set of attachments
If you apply the touch skin and apply a certain registry setting found on the forums here you can get a nice black version of the blue dialer also.
I installed the htc dialer skin, and I noticed that my calls stopped being logged in the call history so I couldn't see if I missed anyones calls, so I uninstalled. Just a FYI before you try
TF3D "deep blue" call skins (v1.0) & update to my charcoal dialer skin (v1.1)
Hi all,
I updated my charcoal dialer and created a new set of skins/images for use when making calls. Just follow the external link to my blog. No screenshots per se, but I posted some of the source images for your window shopping pleasure. Full instructions included in the download packages (ZIP).
There's also an awesome picture of my dog. It's my splash screen (replaced the animated Sprint logo).
PS. The only problem I still have left to fix is the FONT COLOR of the Caller ID text during calls. Dark on dark is kinda hard to see. I'd love some help with that! If anyone knows the manila file(s) to edit, please let me know!
Cheers,
Anthony

Let me do the honors:
Thanks very much.
nice stuff there..
i think the text colour that you are looking for is in the registry..
HKLM/Software/HTC/Phone
V1.1 up!!!
Hi All,
V1.1 of the deep blue call screen skins are available now: external link to my blog
Fixed:
- Answer, Ignore, Mute Ring, & End Call (pressed) buttons
- Updated instructions / How to change font colors in registry!!!

PS. Thanks for the screens Sergio! How do you do that, anyway???
Thanks for all the input, keep it coming!
buggy buttons
Sergio, et al.
I just noticed some funky buttons on that screen shot. The U.S. Sprint version has Call History and Calendar where you have Hold and Add Call.
I haven't modified all the possible buttons yet (as I can only test on my U.S. Sprint Diamond). There's a lot of 'em, so I don't want to do them all. But, if anybody requests a specific button fix for their phone, I'll see what I can do!
Cheers
Take a look at this for screen shots:

Sorry messed up double post.
My bad!

cool little utility, but i can't figure out how to work with it. To take "on-demand" shots, you need to assign a hardware button, but there are only a few on the Diamond and I can't get any of 'em to work!

no plans for a landscape version as I don't plan on ever using it that way! Maybe if I get really bored one day...
Hey fellow SEX1 users!
Just posting a quick note in our forum here to let you know that I've updated my WVGA VistAdvance Wisbar theme in the Development and Hacking forum. Hopefully you'll take advantage of this if you missed it the first time, and if you already installed v1.0, please update to this version, as I've fixed a few bugs and added AppToDate support.
Oh, and please comment in that main Dev + Hacking thread so everything stays organized.
Hope you like!
very nice... Do you have to disable pocket plus in today to run this theme..WA3
scar45, that looks awesome. Seeing that you have an xperia, does it slow down your phone when you use it? Also, what version of wishbar do you have to have? And third, would you have to uninstall spb shell tob use it?
Looks good. Unfortunately I realized that Wisbar Advance and Wisbar Advance Desktop somehow doesn't work too well with TF3D (or maybe just TF3D as a panel) so uninstalled it.
I cannot get this work with the X1
I have installed but cannot find out how to apply it or use it.
anyone have any ideas??
same here, intalled the VistAdvance but couldnt find it anywhere
Cool Theme, i have to do a question....
1) This theme run good with TouchFlo Manila Full Cab on X1? I like it and i will want to continue to use it... is possibile use this in another panel?
For people that say you cant find it. You need to have wishbar advance desktop or wishbar advance install in your phone first. What you are downloading from scar45 post is just a theme for it. I've been using it and it's great, works with panels and tfl3d.

Hi randy_c,
You should be able to use it as a panel for sure. Wisbar Advance Desktop v2+ now has an option to "detach from the today screen". If you select this, then WAD2 will be running on it's own, like a standalone application.
Therefore, if you are able to config a panel XML to load WAD2, you should be able to use it as a dedicated panel.
If anyone does try this and notices that it works, please let me know and I'll fully integrate it into my theme. I'll create lovely Panel graphics, and it will be easy to update if you're running v1.1.

Love to...but not very good at creating XML to load WAD2...Anyone know how please......
does it have Gesture support?
like sweeping finger across from right to left changes the screen?
I just don't know why this didn't work on my Xperia: i've installed WisBar 2.1.1.1 and then VistAdvance...so i've done a soft reset and then, on the Today panel (the principal one) i see only a black screen, waiting for something...nothing more.
So i've uninstalled VistAdvance...soft reset...and after a while WisBar comes with a default theme...REALLY SLOW!!!
But i didn't managed to let VistAdvance to work...
I installed it yesterday and found that:
When I loaded the theme using WAD2 i would get the theme but the windows taskbar (start menu) remained the same as was not customized to the vista look of the theme.
When I loaded the theme using WA3 I found that start menu was changed however the theme background, menus were not loaded.
I was getting gwes.exe errors and DesktopAdvance.exe crashed as well. I used it with WAD2 for a couple of hours, as that actually showed the menus and must say I really like it a lot! Nice and smooth - good customization.
One other thing I found was that after installing the theme my connections were screwed. I couldnt always connect to my phone network, trying to turn on data connection resulted in the phone crashing as it hung on the comm manager page and Opera browser wouldnt let me use BBC iPlayer (Streaming media was coming up with a 'failed to load' error) whereas after removing WAD,WA and the theme it worked perfectly.
I am not sure how much it is related to my handset or the theme but something wasn't happy.
Did you disable task manager? I still think someone should develop a panel for this beautiful software WAD & WA

Find that both Wisbar Advance and Wisbar Advance Desktop don't really work well with TF3D. If I start an app while in TF3D, after exiting the app, I'll end up in Wisbar Advance Desktop rather than back in TF3D. And for Wisbar Advance, had some issues with it but can't exactly remember right now (cos had uninstalled it already).
i see alot of new themes that i like, including yours.
Now i have been looking to buy this app.
what is the difference betweent WA and WAD ?
What why would i need WAD?
Sorry for the off topic.
WA - WizBar Advance 3, skins the tool bar and start menu of the device,
WAD - WizBar Advance Desktop 2, skins the today screen.
I tried using them both, and while they look really nice and do improve functionality, there were a few problems.
1. I couldnt get the Panels to work nicely with WA; the phone just freezes for 5 secs when you press the X Panel button.
2. There seemed to be a few bugs in WAD, with parts of the pages disappearing, and others appearing from other pages, which got really annoying.
3. It also seemed to slow down the phone a fair bit, which I could have got used to.
I did enjoy the customizability of the interface, definitely a bonus compared to SPB, but I couldn't ignore the problems it brought.

Thanks for the reply.
So if i want to use this skin
i need WAD?
And i have a custom rom without the panels.
i guess that i would not have any issues because i dont have any panels?
Yeah you have to download and install WizBar Advance Desktop 2 to use the main theme, and WizBar Advance 3 to use the start menu skin.
Hopefully you can get it working better than I did!
Since there has been so many new ROM and UI releases for the X1 I thought I'd restart a thread where each user can show off a screenshot of their homescreen set up.
Hopefully it will get people asking 'oooh that's nice how did you do that?'
So Here's mine to start with:
I'm Using Jack's ROM 3.3. I've removed the curtains top and bottom and personalised it.
I took a random Noir-ish background and colourised it blue. (To match the Blue SE start logo)
All my highlights are blue too, and I added the X Icons pack.
Finally I installed the analogue and digital clock.
Please post your setups (But don't over post just because you've changed the background or added a new 3D scene ;-)
Very nice!
how can u take a screenshot of your homescreen??
