Simple skin (nokia like)?

Hi!
When I upgraded to the new HTC Artemis I let my wife inherit my Magician, but she is not that in to PPC, so the question is:
Is there a skin suit (WisBar Adv Desktop or something) available that could make the phone more like a "normal" cell phone? She does not realy need all the fancy suff, but she uses tomtom, media player, SMS, MMS, Phone, Contacts, Calendar, IE, phonealarm profiles and phonealarm MMS, SMS, missed call notifications.
Preferably all functions should be available from today screen as large icons.

Seach for the Orange today plugin. Make it looks very much like a normal phone (that's why I don't use it )

I've tested it on my WM5, not sure if (it should) work on WM2003

Thanks!
This is just what I'm looking for, sadly it does not run on PPC2003SE :-(
I guess the same thing could be made as a WisBar theme, maybe it already is, but just hard to find ;-)

You might just want to look around for any old thread/forum/post that has this Orange plugin. As Orange does have a Magician release that has that today plug-in (eg they DO have a plugin for 2003). Good luck.

The answer to your question is in your question itselft - Wisbar Adv Desktop.

Hi!
Yes I know, but I'm looking for a skin to the WisBar adv desktop software pack.

I'm not sure if this helps, but if you were to use cLaunch to set up the Today screen .. 'nicely', you may able to make it looks simplier. Take a look at the iPhone cLaunch skin here. Note: cLaunch maybe a bit troublesome to setup.

Herald Today Screen Modification

Hello all,
i m new here but i am watching all p0sts about herald for a long time because i have one also...
Here's my question...is there any program like SPB MOBILE SHELL that can customize your today screen with out pay?? SPB shell is really helpfull but i cant find anywhere a non trial version with out pay:/
my sec0nd question..is there any other program to describe your tasks in your today screen ?? i ve tryed couple of programs but nothing..:/still saying 1 2 3 active tasks..:/
my last question is about loading cyrcle in ppc is there any way to change that???
Thx For your Help :>

Spb Diary come in my mind for your second question, it's not free but in my opinion its worth the money. Another program is called Today Agenda, haven't had my hand on it but I guess others here did.
The HTC Touch Today Screen can be an alternative to Spb Mobile Shell. It can be found either here or in the Wizard subforum. It's somewaht free, but it really slows down you PPC alot and takes away at least half of your screen.

yes but htc touch is for wm6..:/ any 0ther program??

I tried installing the HTC Touch Today screen from the wizard forums but didn't seem to work
I think I saw some registry settings on the same thread but didn't have regedit thingie installed so I'll give it a shot later

What language does your OS have.
I had to change the .mui files into 0407 for my german Terra.
And for registrysettings - use totalcommander. The best filemanager and FREE - and it has regedit, ftp, and lan service.
Good luck

As papamopps said, you just have to "localize" the plugin. It is only one .mui.0409 file you need to rename. If you use a good file explorer like TotalCommander you will be able to find and rename the file. I guess you are not using an English device so you should find that particular file easily in the Windows folder. After that uncheck and check the plug in from the settings menu.

HTC Plus

Find this from other forum. Work fine on my HTC Trinity.

More screenshot

oh its taing too much of real estate My screen area!

Does it support VGA?

Backlight working ?
Does the backlight button work with this release ? In the other version your device will freeze at bootup....anyone tested already ?
btw: seems to be the same version like in the other post....
Cheers
Edit:
Could not wait Just installed, no problems on my device (Artemis) and Backlight-button. Looks cool.
What i don't like: in the GUI-Config you can only add apps from the Programs-directory (for example: when you want to add solitaire (which is stored in "Games"), you need to move the shortcut into the Programs-Folder....or you need to add the registry-key in HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCPlus\Shortcuts manually....or am i wrong ?
But in the end.... i think i stay with HTC Home....

Works on Artemis?!

It's interenting that you had no problems. I also installed on my Artemis with official HTC Asia WM6 rom and yes, it works until you switch off the device. Than you can never switch it on again, only by soft reset with stylus!
So I uninstalled the prog quickly...
Otherwise it would be nice to have it on Today screen, so if someone could construct a bug-free cab from the extracted files I would really welcome it!
cheers

Anybody tried this on a Touch?
The "other" Version (as petervbeck says) in the Hermes Forum doesn't work on the Touch.

I doesn't work on my Touch!

Working on Wizard
HTC Plus is Working on Wizard!
just 2 bugs:
when you select battery status in Customization and you tab on the symbol you go to wifi settings and backlight is not working

I'm using Tom's 4.1 full and as i said, no problems. But in fact- i like HTC Home more, but that's my opinion.... on my device i had no problem with hanging boots or something similar, i tested all the buttons....but not for a long time...then i switched back to HTC home...that's my expirience with Plus..
Cheers

How about a little credit where credit is due? This is the same version I posted in the Hermes forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326689
Today I posted an updated version that should help some people who had problems with it.
This tool was non-functional when I found it. I had to dissassemble the dlls to find out why the utility would not work (missing HTCImgCodec.dll).

Thanks! Keep the great work!

I just installed your cab on my mogul. It works great. But I decide to keep using HTC Home.

Is the "aplication launching pad" of HTC plus finger-scrollable, or the only way to scroll is by tapping on the arrow?
TIA

Can anyone confirm that it uses less memory than HTC Home?

nobody seems to answered earlier question, does this support vga?
cheers

how do you remove HTC plus!? I like it but it freezes my PPC6700 sometimes. I don't use it but I cannot remove it from the today settings menu. Thanks

I do not know if this plugin supports VGA. If you have a VGA device, try it out and let us know.

DKtoday with the Diamond

I'm trying to get DKtoday working on my HTC Diamond.
The problem is it has been designed for a regular WM and because of TouchFlow it won't display on my Today screen.
Is there a workaround so it does work on my Diamond?

you can't add pluggins to tf3d...yet anyway
you need to turn manilla off

[SKN] Ryon WM Dialer VGA

Heey!
I don't know if anyone is still using the original WM Dialer but me now with all the phonecanvas and stuff out there, but anyway..
Here is a skin I made..
Feel free to use
(I only use the wm dialer for making calls, for answering I got S2U2 which is great!)
In landscape mode some buttons got little graphic issues, but don't use lanscape my self..
Download cab and transfer to your device, run and softreset.
This is my first cab but I have tested it and seems to work fine.
(Uninstallable. From Remove Program's list as any other program)
Use at own risk! Your phone is not my responsibility!

Enjoy

very nics for sharing i still use the WM Dialer think its snappy and less mem usage like the colors black and grey less mem usage ,.thank you

Best dialer skin I've seen, you should make one for the htc side to answer phone canvas like this, Thanks

Great!
Going to install this on my 6.5

EDIT: Worked out great!

No, it's made for the original wm dialer in wm6.1.
I have not tested on 6.5 but WH33LSONFIRE did, so it seems to work on both..

No change to Dialer
Hi,
sorry if im missing something simple here but having installed the cab restarted device the dialer remains the standard wm one.
My Device is the diamond using latest orange rom.
cheers.
james

Great job! I've disabled the TF3D dialer, because the memory leak is in there. So now my diamond looks fresh again! Thx

really nice looking dialer, Ryon. thanks!!!

I like it a lot!
I don't use the WM dialer anymore (since slide-to-answer came along) but I'll add a link to this thread in my WM dialer skins thread.
Keep up the good work!

Beautiful skin. Can anyone upload to rapidshare? I can't access megaupload. It says the service is not available in my area.
Edit: Dont'worry. Got it now. Will test soon.

It looks a lot like the Pocketshield dialer.
