You have to install Live messenger, it contains the Live search too. It is not officialy released by Microsoft for all WM5 phones, so you have to search for Live Messenger for mobile. I cannot give you a link.
Good luck
hi everyone, i have got windows live search on my to day screen and i was wondering if was possible to change the light blue boarder around the search bar to transparent or another colour.
Thanx in advance.
Thanks
I've managed to find the Live Messenger cab file but the program wasn't really what i was expecting. I was hoping just to get the Live Search on the today screen. All the Live Messenger does is search the web Thanks anyaway.

I haven't found any info on this matter...
I have tons of WM 2003SE tsk themes, but... they don't work with WM 5.0 in my Universal...
Do you know where can I find compatible themes? I tried wisbar advance desktop, but it is still in beta... I'm looking for simple tsk themes that work in WM 5.0
Any help would be appreciated.
Someone posted this a while back, I beleive you need the Pocket PC SE VGA to work with the Universal. I have not tried it yet, so do post back if they do work.
http://www.wmthemes.com/default.aspx
It doesn't work. The lower two softkeys don't change their colour, and the wallpaper appears like grey, even if it has... every colour of the rainbow.
I'm really surprised that M$ hasn't announced a theme maker for WM 5.0... And more surprised that there are only 1-2 themes available for WM 5.0 devices...
Really unfortunate...

try mine. i've been playing for a while. some of them are really cool. tell me what do you guys think??? rename the extention to .tsk
More to come....
svyatko you rock! Excellent themes at last!!! Send more plz!
How did you make them my friend? With what kind of software?
Thanx also for the other links to the other friend who post them
Hi svyatko,
Are you using a launcher? How did you get to show so many icons on your screen?
What is the colorful round icon near the battery icon?
Very nice themes. How did you create them?
Great themes svyatko!
I dont seem to have the additional icons!
Do I need to install flash or anything?
guys thanks for your comments. Now, all icons I have , are RESCO TODAY PLUG-IN. it's pretty cool. and it doesn't slow the system like SPB POCKET PLUS one. The icon in the corner next to the battery is POCKET INFORMANT icon.
and regarding the software I am using, its something like McDEV Theme creator. I can't remember the axact name, coz i'm @ work, sneakely writing from my Exec ;-))
yess! The program is ThemeMaker McDeb and it works...
At last I made my own themes based on the ones provided here! Thanx again my friend, it works great.
i'm glad you made it. the only problem I find difficult to solve is the dimentions of the picture. no matter how I tried, the picture gets cut in landscape or in portrait modes. it's obviously not a big deal in an abstract pictures, but in something more precise, that is a great pain in the ass...
Do you have a link for the resco today plugin?

Hi, can anyone using a Cingular 8125 please post the nice windows green theme? THanks
Here's the only theme that's different on the 8125. And as far as theme's go, all it is is a .gif file for the background on the today screen.
I've attached both.

download this pack from windows mobile:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/themes.mspx
the themes work fine on wm5 but you will need to use your own images as today background so landscape looks ok. be sure to have your background images 320px/320px
Thanks... brilliant ideas...
Windows Green Theme
That link does not work. It only takes you to the windows mobile US site, which does not allow logins from abroad.
Does anyone have the genuine Windows WM5 PocketPC Green Theme? Not a 'homebrew' version, I've seen enough of those. I'd really like to get the actual Microsoft version as a .tsk file from anyone who's managed to pull it off of their PPC.
Thanks!

Hi Mark!!
Everything's GREAT!! Luvin' the Wizard and getting to the point of actually ANSWERING questions, rather than READING for answers. LOL!!
That's great - thanks!
Seems like quite a few of you are interested on the new windows messenger live, so i decide to post the file here. This is still the beta version, but it's near complete and no major bug reported.
Once you install it, it will import all the contacts on your Messenger Live to your PDA contact, some people might not prefer this but there is no option to disable it so use it on your own risk.
Apart from that, this version is much much better than pocket MSN, it support far more function such as file transfer and icon...etc.
So enjoy !
p.s. i seems to have a problem of uploading the file, so here is a link:
http://www.badongo.com/file/2528811
Thanks ! I'm Live
i get this massage "Username already taken".
can you send me this file to my email
[email protected]
if the file is EXE can you change to TEXT file.
thanks.
Many Thanks Wu

Same problem here, only worked for 1 day, now just comes up with a small box saying "error"!! Can anyone help please?
Thanks Tim
Looks like mine has gone today as well...after entering name and password it just goes back to the today screen.
Damn.
Same errors here as well. Cannot log into Windows Live Messenger or Live Mail. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling but that didn't work.

Thanks a bunch for that link Boel****. That was the only one that worked on my Ameo and it works beautifully,....except for a bit of lag when running multiple apps. Not complaining though.
'Glad' to hear that, I'm not the only one. Bummer :-(
Does anyone already have a solution?

The cab file created by me only has the newest WLM version which can be found on some new WM6 roms... Nothing special. If its laggy blame MS LOL
Was the old one also laggy? Cause it kinda uses a lot of resources.
Hi guys,
perhaps I should have read this forum before deleting all my contactlist (msn accounts) in my outlook.
after a sync my msn live app refused to start up.
after deleting the msn live and a hard reset. I'd tried to reinstall it again, but this time I couldn't get trough the installation. It says installation failed. even after a hard reset!
Is it familiar to someone?
very strange that the problem remains even after a hard reset..

Runs perfectly fast on the WM6 ROM! I suppose the newer OS comes with better optimizations than WM5 AKU 3.5!

No sorry Mahmood. I'm running WM6 on HTC Universal, but have noticed a very big increase in speed since WM5. It is even faster than the Athena!! Everything is instantaneous.

You're quite right, it's missing on the Ameo.
However, you can download the newest and considerably better version for WM6 called Windows live Messenger. Works perfectly on the Ameo and is more akin to the PC version.
Do a search for it on this forum. It's in an older thread.
thanks mate much appreciated
In order to start MSN messenger, go to Start>Program>Pocket MSN.
Once you have started Pocket MSN, you'll see MSN messenger as the first item for you to use. It's a great little tool. I've been using it a couple of years now, and does everything I want it to do
can someone give me the correct link for the windows messenger please?
I have tried to search over the forum, but still couldn't find it.
many thanks!!

Hi Mahmood,
What a website that you have! Enjoyed it very much. Lots of useful stuff there. Thanks
Hello there guys,
Can anyone help me change the webpage settings which are used to update HTC home weather?
I have edited the xml document in \windows to include my hometown and work location but although I can find both places in www.accuweather.com, I cannot update the weather on my trinity because the default webpage is set to htc.accuweather.com.
Is there a way to change the registry to look on a different website for updates??
Thanks guys for any help on this question.
Take care, Fergie.
Thanks for the help.....
Well,
After all the help I got on the question I finally decided to buy SPB Weather and use it with Mobile shell, don't need HTC Home anymore. I can now input which source I can get my weather updates from.
