Firstly thanks to all those who contributed knowledge, picture files etc in the production of this cab file.
This 'super theme' does a few things -
changes phone dialler skins in both landscape and portrait mode
changes dial buttons in both potrait and landscape views aswell as in the progress screen and dial screens
changes missed/incoming/outgoing notifications in call history
changes the ringtone to the matrix soundtrack
adds the matrix theme to 'my documents' folder.
what i am struggling with is to automate the matrix.tsk file automatically rather than manually setting the file.
i added this to my extended rom so the only other thing it didnt apply is the black bars on the task bars etc.
apart from that give me your verdict on rounghly a weeks work.....
ps the file is 4mb due to the ringtone and also i would like the data for the 'video' button so that i can amend the registry to fit in with the rest of the theme. thanks.

Nice, can anyone do some more, don't want matrix on my cell
Thanks a lot .. works perfect
Hi 16cum,
What application are you using for your meters? Any slow downs?

i am using a simple one called batterybar.arm
attached
nice and simple an deasy to use doesnt slow the system down much, only thing is it was designed for WM2003 so sometimes shows charging and sometimes battery full, but after a single tap starts to behave!
re other screen shots well i am hoping to do Star Wars theme, but give me a bit of time and will post
nice work 16cum :wink: give us more !!
Hello
A few glitches sorted out with the cab files, they still do what i said they would the difference is now they are about 1mb in size, i have cut down the ringtone to 33 secs so drastically reduce the file size with compromising quality.
the rest is the same. you will still need to apply the theme via the Today Screen settings as as yet i havent been able to apply directly. Unless someone can help me!!! anyway
Enjoy Starwars and Matrix!!!!
Plz leave feedback on these and any requests and am also considering starting a website for these Super Themes so can have them all in one place.
Thanks
Forgot to add:
Use any cab file on your Exec, and just install. It will restart the device, then goto settings>today and apply the theme.
If you want the other one instead just transfer the other cab file and click to install. It will automatically uninstall the first theme and install the 2nd one and just the same goto the settings>today and apply the new theme.
This way you dont use a lot of storage space and program memory., you only use the 1mb for each theme in you device or better still SD card.
thanks
Err I am no longer using The Matrix theme but it is still shows up on the dial pad section? How do i remove it?
Edit: Found it under remove programs

Here is a new audio player 4 ya! Customizable, big buttons, etc. Pack into ROM ENJOY!!!
Very Nice... Finally an app that I like more than WMP.
how do you install it?
Its for ROM cooking (you place the folder in the OEM one) but if you copy the folder into your phone and you run the .exe it runs OK

then put a shortcut on your start menu and your set
Looks very good, but I think wmp is better
Anyone want to post a screen shot or maybe a cab file for this?
A few screenshots and a feature list would be a better way of encouraging usage. Simply telling me that this is "customizable" is hardly a big reason for me to bother downloading it!
No offence and I'm grateful you shared the app but I'd appreciate it if you'd also share some information about it.
[Edit]
I did a little research of my own and assuming this is the same thing, it's a nice looking app. Two features that look nice compared with built-in WMP: ability to create playlists on the phone and ability to make an MP3 (or your selected part of an MP3) into a ringtone.
See the app in action here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwhTHFoXPiQ
the video one looks better
here it is in cab form. It just installs to the windows drive, copies the shortcut and installs the reg keys.
what reg keys?
I did it the old fashion way, copy over and created shortcut myself. havent checked if it created reg keys. kinda lazy right now
these ones are included in the package
Code:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\audiomanagerapp\DefaultIcon]
@="AudioManager.exe,-102"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\audiomanagerapp\SelectIcon]
@="AudioManager.exe,-103"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\AudioManager]
"AudioManager"="1.0"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\MASD]
"AudioManager"="1_2_409721_v"
Screenshot
I love this program... Not too sure how to skin it yet, but it's very nice by default.

Thank you for the screen shot and the cab file
Been running it for a few days now. Works great. The power consumption is just unbelievable. It hardly consumes anything. Weird. I hope there is some way to show album art. It looks too plain
What video one?
just installed on prophet, works well.
thanks you guys!
What is different about this than the already installed WMP?
great app
installed on wizard...nice app, it's more intuitive than WMP.
well i thinks its nice, but it doesnt have a Today screen plugin like WMP does, but the make your own custom rington is really cool. other than that its not that different.
This is the Awesome LG Today Plugin with no bottom bar and at the bottom of the screen. Get it & all instructions about configuring it
HERE
Attach here pls, requres registration.
Dont get me wrong, but i do not want to registrate myself for the download only. Please put the download here, thank you.
I want a Version, without Spacer
i registered for all of us. didn't test it yet, so be carful...

I downloaded this version
The only differance between this and the one already found in the othere LG today plug thread is dciNoBar.exe so no need to register to get what you already get strait of this side
and no need to make a new thread for things that you could have added to the other thread
Got it. Looks very exciting! Thanks.
It look so nick,Thank you !
what is the use of spacer 2 here?
It works great, the only real point of it is it removes the bottom bar of windows mobile (aka the soft keys) when you are on the main screen. The file is safe as it is really the same files we already have here, just packaged together for ease of use.
The spacer program is actually a quick fix for making the buttons show up on the bottom. I did notice a good value on it was 69 when using only the htc home plugin and the buttons, with the bottom bar enabled. and 94 with only the 2 plugins and the bottom taskbar disabled.
does any one have that all black theme we see in the screenshots?
heres a black theme but it doesnt say htc on it.
is there a way to configure this thing or are we stuck with it the way it is. i want to edit what the icons open up.
I want to edit the paths of the shortcuts, for example, usb stick to wm5torage and the globe icon to destinator... looks great in my HTC Touch, a screenshot of it:

thats not the exact them but it still looks great. thanks
still looking for the theme from the orginal screen shot.
has anyone got this theme??? it looks sick...i want it on my phone :)
thanks in advance
I am also interested in the .tsk from the original screenshot. mushipkw, which battery meter are you using?
I figured I would give this a shot on a clean install of DCD's 1.6.7 ROM. Memory usage dropped from 27.52 free to 19.xx after installing this today plugin. It looks perty and works as described but that's just too much memory for me to sacrifice.

Mem Delta is about half-MiB for me (build 318), and I have a plethora of other plugins on my todayscreen as well.
Hello everybody !
After numerous attempts to customize my HTC trinity for a thumb-based experience, I finally got onto some applications that really do the job :
- Tene's PocketCM for the contacts
- ArticCat's OTO for the calendar (works well so far, however I hope to see more of it soon)
- Paulya's Vista II dialer replacement
- A_C's S2U for the lock and S2V for the pics viewer
- HTC's PhonePad for the SIP and Mediaplayer for the music player
- SPB's Mobile Shell for the navigation and the menus.
What I'm missing is a launcher that would work as a today plugin, and that would support large icons in PNG format (thus, with alpha transparency). By "big" I mean "larger than the default 32x32 pixels that all launchers support" - 48 or 60 pixels beeing the size I'm after (something large enough for my fat thumbs ). I don't need tab support, since there are only a small number of apps I want to access from the today screen (typically 8-12).
Do you know if anything that'd meet my needs exists for WM5? Even for a small/reasonable fee (means, around 10-15$) ?
Thanks a million in advance !
I think i used claunch to put a really big shortcut (64x64px) on my todayscreen
Greetings, Vi
ThrottleLauncher
Search for the ThrottleLauncher thread here. No Today plugin yet but all indications are that it will be coming. Great launcher, you can size the rows the pictures are in to any size you wish. I am using 56picsels by 56picsels.
pocketage - no size limit
I tried to install PocketAge from the latest CAB I could find on this board, but something must have gone bad... My Trinity is now stuck as reboot
Everytime I soft-reset it, it got stuck then block at the following step :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Of course, none of the hard or soft buttons work and I can't dismiss this reminder. I tried to remove the corresponding event from outlook but I couldn't manage to sync the device. I noticed I can access the device filesystem. One strange thing, though, makes me thing that the system is not completely frozen : the clock on the reminder changes and shows the correct time.
Any idea how to recover my phone without having to hard-reset it ? Thanks !!!

yeah, claunch is a good one. it's a today plugin and you can use custom icons. not sure if they are png though never tried it. it has way more options than you need but you can configure it how you want....

Hi,
Here's the last skin I made for BatteryStatus.
It's designed to be only a "Today CommManager", like Effcomm, but more graphical.
DiamondWSwitch

}
Features :
- toggle BT, WiFi and phone
- hold 1 second to have a little menu appear to select options concerning the item
Install :
- install batterystatus advanced (http://www.chi-tai.info/download/BatteryStatusExt.1.05.CAB)
- copy the dir and the XML file from the zip to \Windows\BatteryStatus
- change the theme in the options of BatteryStatus (Advanced Tab)
I also put the "older" version :
WirelessSwitch
Same features, same install, different look.
Tested on a Kaiser with stock ROM.
Enjoy
cool , super ton idée ton skin ..
it beautifull, great idée ;D
Very nice, looks great and works well. Great for people like me who are too lazy to open the real comm manager.
Cool, thanks!
just a question : what is the calendar plugin you use on the today in the DiamondWSwitch picture ?
I try to find something that will just display enough calendar info without scrolling bar on the right.
thanks
Bug feedback
Hi,
I'm using the Wireless Today Switch, which I think is fantastic, so thank you for the effort that went into making it. I have disabled the background by removing the line in the xml and the background png. I think it is line three. Anyway, one think I have noticed is that when you press and hold the phone button, whether the phone is on or not, the bottom option in the context menu is always "Turn off phone". The functionality works, i.e. it does switch the phone on when it's off, but the text is wrong. I'll have a look at it later myself but do you know an easy solution to this? I'll post the no background edit with a screen shot later today.
Cheers,
andrew-in-woking

The single thing I did is the XML and the graphics, the other functions are Batterystatus's. So is this little bug

It's TodayAgenda. The great thing with this plugin, is that you can set a fix size... Set it to 62 and it's perfect
Screen shots & no background
Hi,
I've attached the edited skin with no background with a general screen shot and one of the menu error.

installed battery status. why dont i have the adcanced tab!!!!
i want to set the theme and i cant do it
Did you download the advanced version of Batterystatus ? (just click the link on the first post)
iPhone Theme/No WiFi (Perfect for HTC Touch)
Sorry for resurrecting such an old thread, but this seemed as appropriate a place as any to post this.
Though skinning and such is not my usual forte, I put enough work into this that it's only fair to share. This app was exactly what I was looking for when I decided I wanted a bluetooth on/off switch on my today screen... but, I really wanted it to match my iPhone icons. The result is attached. I've eliminated the wifi toggle since my HTC Touch has no wifi.
Okay. I made a white/black theme. Here is the home ss:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is with the flash clock
Notes:
Non-flash clock is black and a bit messed up
Black Large icons
White buttons
On music page - flipped volume up and volume down keys (Vol + is on the left and Vol - is on the right)
Silver/White/Black Back and icons on landscape
Comm Manager - In the process of changing the last two icons and adding the words on and off.
Programs and Settings - White back to icons. In the process of creating new icons for Settings.
See attached pictures for what I mean
If you have suggestions, feel free to post them here.
Here's my files: Link
Instructions:
1. Backup original TouchFlo3D folder in \ThrottleLauncher\Setups.
2. Download my modified TF3D file.
3. Disable ThrottleToday in Start>Settings>Personal>Today>Items.
4. Extract to \ThrottleLauncher\Setups.
5. Go back to settings and enable ThrottleToday.
6. Enjoy!
very good really
thanks alot for sharing this
A little peak on an update
hoooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww tks....
hmm... perhaps you can put it in a subdirectory under the skin, and named it as Bright under the tf3d directory. Of course, xml editing need to be done.
Alternatively, you can even create another directory similar to Touchflo3d.
Well done, and keep up the good work!!
Great work!! Thanks!!

You have to appreciate people's hard work Nice theme..keep it on
How did you change your windows logo on the start menu I like yours about 100000 times more than the normal one
I actually use Garmin's roms. You can ask him how to change the logo. I think it's a png file attached to a .dll
Kraize
Nice work. Keep it up
