The apps that make it look like that are:
Phonealarm with a mod of Macguffin's DoNotTouch skin
found here http://www.pocketmax.net/smf/index.php?topic=4662.0
PS. There have been some changes in donottouch skin that are not published too.
The 2nd plugin is Pocketbreeze 5.3.0.6
have quite a few 3rd party plugins incorporated to pocketbreeze (weather panel, info reader, spb backup plus).
Unfortunately the mods that i did to get the feel is not published. So if you're interested i'll pass you the files, all i need is your email.
The 3rd is Batterystatus.
Of which have modified the xml to get this look and feel.
The top bar consists of:
mytools 1.5.1 - use this for battery uptime and connection uptime (when available). Have got some custom icons for the ok/close soft buttons.
indibar 2.7.0 - for the RAM and Battery meters, as well as the cascading start menu.
The bottom bar consists of Saman's WM5NewMenu.
i think that about covers it.

Hi Techscum,
I am really impressed to see your today screen but I am using Samsung I780. I read all your posts but can't make out which applications will be suitable for I780. Will it be possible for you to suggest some thing on that?

Aboinger, I am also interested in exploring Ultimate Launcher. Your Athena Ultimate Launcher Interface looks so nice. How did you do that? Can you explain step by step. Cos I also installed Ultimate Launcher, but Ultimate Launcher can only slide from right to left or vice versa, functions like the "easy shortcut". But Ultimate Launcher cannot move up and down.

Landscape is supported and works perfectly fine...
my ultimate launcher is also limited from side to side / fade animations
when you are in the tabs option and hit create new it should give you an option to add in plugins / shortcuts
what exactly did u need help with id be more than happy to help

Where download the ultimate launcher?

its an exe so its in a zip
dont know where the cab for the english version is ...

updated video to include ftouchsl / new UL interface

Better!...

I know this is a thread to demo the UL (which I just got put on two days ago....awesome software). But boinger, I notice that you have flames on your S2U2. One: where did you get that animated background for it? Second: your S2U2 looks as if it was designed for VGA....mine looks like a stretched QVGA screen. How can i get mine crisp like yours?
Thanks buddy. Nice layout..
BTW....I'm not sure what the version that was linked earlier in this thread....but I found the english version here!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365334&highlight=Ultimate+Launcher&page=2

yes this one is the english version
and about S2U2 i changed the graphics for vga.. you can do that simply by editing the .png's
i just changed the clock files to be honest.
and in real vga mode the slider doesnt work. so i enabled dpad support cause the screen mapping is off.
i can send you the flames gif... i got it off another member and edited it for vga.

You said editing the png's. Does that mean you changed the icons themselves, or you adjusted the values of the png to fit VGA? Just a little confused on that. Or all together, did you edit the pngs in a software such as Adobe Photoshop? If that is the case I might have to ask are you willing to share....thats a little over my head.
Yes Please email me the flame background...[email protected]
I might go back to S2U2 because of this.
Thanks boinger....appreciated buddy!

the blue flames jpg is attached
and i wouldnt mind sending you the vga clock files but that should be in the clock pack already

boinger,
What sort of icon format does ultimatelaunch accept. Is it only ico? What about png format?

only ico
you can use 32bit xp icons though.. so they look just as nice... only dillema is you have to convert most icons from .png
i can upload my ico icon pack for you all if you like ?

how can i use icon(bottom) like you?
i like your style..
looks nice..
i tried but.. i cannot use it.
i do not know how i set the icon.
i like icon linked like iphone..
please, let me know how you set yr advantage.....

That would be awesome if you uploaded some of your icons boinger. I'm also trying to find some to share here as well.
I'm struggling a little with the "not activated" signs in the corner. I have registered this app, and entered the code twice. Soft-reset. After a couple of minutes and some navigation, they reappear.
I searched for some answers, and it seems there isnt a fixed from what I was able to find.
Anybody else having this annoyance!!
Thanks

here ya go

Thanks boinger. These are nice buddy!!!!
I think I have the wrong version of S2U2. I just took the WM5 version that I used for my x51v. I say this because, I cant use gif. as a wallpaper for it. I'm assuming that I might not have the most current version.
Lastly, I have been trying to incorporate your icons, but for some reason UL will not show them when I select them. I can only use the default icons that come with them.
Any ideas!!!

I don't seem to be able to enter text for the application icon, although I can see that the config icon has a description.
What is the trick to enter this text?
I'm also unable to choose tab icon. Does tab icon got to meet certain criteria for them to work?

set the icon size to 72 x 72 that should work..
UL wont show icons unless they are the proper size...

icons on themes, dialer skin.

I have tried to search and find what to do to install a theme that has icons, and cannot figure it out. Do I need some program that everyone is using? Also on dialer skins how are those installed?
Do skins kill battery life or use alot of system resources?
Thanks

What theme? If its HTC home, you install the .cab file from the phone or sync the phone to pc and double click .exe.
If its a .tsk file, Put the file in the windows directory of the phone then go to today screen and select from there.
Skins dont use a lot of system resources UNLESS they are actively doing something( S2U2 for example if you install a moving gif as your wallpaper) as they are just being used instead of the originals.. Cheers...

yea, u need to be a wee bit more clear as to what you want, you're probably new and dont know the right terms, so maybe if you posted some pics we could understand a bit better what u are trying to achieve.

this is the style im looking for http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=51534&d=1190401691 with the big clock and some icons below. I think that I will need a plug in to show the icons. I installed a tsk theme but it only changed the color of the top and bottom bars, but did not show the large clock or icons like that one. I saved it to the memory card, not within a folder and I was able to browse find and install it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry Im New
thanks,
Nicholas

that big clock is the htc home plugin, which you can download all over this forum, or at www.pocketemu.com which incidentally also has another program called htc home customizer, which would be the easiest way to customize the home icons. It may not have that exact theme you are looking for, so the best way to get that theme is to ask the person who posted that screenshot

Ditto. Welcome to the addiction...I'm lucky to keep the same clock and icons for more than a week...

Diamond Style Clock

I looking for a way to get the HTC Diamond style clock on my today screen, similar to the attachment.. I use SPB Mobile shell for shortcuts etc. and do not really want to get rid of it. At the moment I have SPB Time, but that is just a bit boring, I would like to have the Diamond style clock. Is their any way to get this? I have searched for threads to fine HTC Home without any tabs and just the clock, but cannot find a solution to have just the clock.
Could any one suggest an application or something to do this.

do you mean that clock style for spb mobile shell?
if yes, greatbal has a diamond skin for spb mobile shell with that clock.

Hi Dielo, thanks for the reply.
no not for spb mobile shell, but for the today screen itself, like htc home.

Search does not hurt dude, really, it will not bite you in any way...

Kristoff_sz, thats a nice theme, but I don't want to user HTC Home, as I don't like to use the tabs or notification icons, I use spb mobile shell for this. I have searched if their is a way to get rid of them, the icons and tabs, but cannot find anything on this site on how to do it.

Sorry for misunderstanding then.
Well, as far as I know, there is an app called Pocket Digital Clock, but its not customizable, and the clock looks like standard one from HTCHome.
And I think that there is no method to put just a clock like this on today. Maybe some programs like BatteryStatus, rlToday or HTCHome++ can do that, but i don't know about that kind of option.
Cheers
Chris

Chris, thanks for the reply. I think I can create a theme using HTCHome++
cheers

Try this....!!!
Just go to ThrottleLauncher Forums and download the 'ThrottleHtml_alpha' plugin.It's a Diamond-style clock + Weather today plugin with exactly same animations as are on the HTC Diamond phone.
Also,I want to mention that it's first development was started by the Flash-King Twolf on this forum.
Hope this info could help you find the app you want.

Search RLtoday diamond clock you should get plenty of hits.

if you're looking for an animated one you can use FEWidgets
if you're looking for a regular one you can use an rlToday screen i make... search for it.
you can also use Manila2D, Battery Status.. all of them have diamondlike clocks.

Any WVGA today theme for X1

I was wondering if anyone gets some WVGA themes for sharing for my new X1i.
Thanks alot!

I much prefer the background of the XPERIA Black theme, but unfortunately the bars are 'flat' and not 3D, and the color is not changeable via RCMod... so I wanted to place the images from XPERIA Black into the XPERIA Silver theme so I can play with the WinMo bar colors... has anyone done this? I don't have experience with the Theme Gen software out there.

Can always use tfl3d :-D Then you can use all the themes that are out there already.

Not entirely true. If you use the TF3D themes from the diamond they are in a VGA resolution not WVGA, so they dont look right. However, they can be changed with the TF3D theme editor.

I want to know where to find -or how to extract- the "Xperia black" original wallpaper from the whole theme
I like the image but the rest of the theme is boring... (flat borders, no animations, etc...)
I have installed TouchFlo3D as a panel and suddenly I found myself using it 80% of the time (10% Xpeia Media panel and 10% on other panels). IMHO TouchFlo 3D is A LOT much useful that the original Sony-Ericsson user interface.
I´d really like to find a way to put that original "xperia" image on my TouchFLO 3D panel home screen ("background" or "wallpaper") but I can't find theimage inside the phone

Found the original "Xperia" pic: its named stwater... something else in the windows forlder
I assigned it as wallpaper in TouchFLo3D settings tab -> wallpaper but only appears in the today screen !!! (I mean, when I change to any other tab "weather" "programs" etc it is not displayed)
Any solution ?? Ideas ??

Many thanks to you buddy

You may also need the WVGAThemeHelper.cab...google it, install it, change theme, execute it. Needs to be executed after you changed a theme...

i dont understand how you install .tsk files? and also whats the wvgathemehelper.cab about? thanks.

Put *.tsk files on your phone (my documents/themes) Then you will be able to see these themes among your default themes.
"wvgathemehelper.cab" is to help your phone to correctly switch theme.
For me when i changed theme the background did not work, after i executed "wvgathemehe.." everything looks fine!
//Patrik
Edit: They do not nessesarly have to be in a "themes" folder, thats just a suggestion

thanks so much...ill have a go!
