Sure not a problem just had to make them up

Hey George,
Finally got my Tilt so I am in this forum now. WAD is locking up my device. WA3 is OK but once I start navigating through the pages in WAD, within two minutes I have to SR. Didn't want to do a clean install but may have to and let you know if the problem is still there.

Hi to you to. I don't know if this is the problem but with the meter for storage car I've found that if you pull the storage card out it will throw WAD , so i just shut off if i need to remove the storage card. Other than that a rellocatin of that meter to read something else may be needed

Im not sure what you mean but this is not a psShutXP Skin. It's part of the WAD and is a proper Shutdown, Logoff and Soft Reset with button animation
something that can't be done in psShutXP, it's only a stagnet picture where this is not.

Hi Gregory,
Is there a specific way to Cancel out of this? Sometimes I can get out of it but most times I have to turn off and turn back on. I think a Cancel option would be nice here...

Press and hold on menu then select properties, under Action should be Toggle Dock and under Control it should be Menu. If thats all as it should be, then have you put the folders as i instructed, both as they are into Themes/Desktop/ if you've put them any where else it would not work.
Let me know how you go as i really did make this as easy to put on and work as i could do

Phone app Skin

Hi..
I have always felt the Skin on the phone app is so boring..
I just stumble over DailPad Maker ..
I LOVE it..
http://www.hkscorpio.com/members/bong/
Its easy to work in and install ( and uninstall if U don't like it).
Best Regards .. Carlis
hmmm....
These are all free, always. Only work in portrait mode.
Cheers
Why don't they work in landscape? What happens if you change to landscape?
Ur skins on Ur page are realy beutyful ..
Thank you..
.. Carlis ..
Thanks for the comments! If you switch to landscape you will just use the default landscape dialler skin. The authors of the skin program have gone awol so despite my suggestions they are not listening.

I liked the psk skins until I started dialing a number, and noticed that the buttons revert back to their defaults when held down, and the Jam intellidialer overlaps the background image. It prolly always did this, but it wasnt noticable on the original background.
When I uninstalled pskinstaller, the buttons on phone went really ugly Any way to revert to defaults? I am using 'My Blue' for now, which looks ok, but the buttons are still reverting back to their original look when pressed down (only when pressed down, as soon as you let go of them, the skin reappears)

original phone background
Hi,
I feel boring with O2 phone background.
How to delete it or to make it to default windows mobile 2003 se?
Thanks!
Arto
the buttons revert to the OEM look when depressed because the bitmap for the depressed button is located in a dll that is much harder to manipulate. "skin choosers" for the phone app, actually only rename and replace about 18 different bmps (i think) located in the windows dir. If you explore to the windows dir and view by type of file, it isn't hard to figure out which ones i'm talking about.
Do a search on this forum for "phone skins" or "depressed" and/or "buttons". I know there are several posts concerning this subject. There are even a few different dlls floating around that will change the look of the depressed buttons.....
Good luck!

Phone Skin

Hi all,
It's freezing in London, UK! Anyways...
I hate the o2 phone skin I am stuck with, I noticed once before after a hard reset there was a much nicer skin - im guessing it was the default WM5 skin...I know it was blue... Well - I want it back ..
So today's question from me..
How do I change my phone skin.. WITHOUT HARD RESET..
Ta
lol..its bloody freezin!..
here u go...speeded up my exec..and actually prefer the simple default skin anyway..use resco or any other registry editor
To set or remove the operator phone skin
The setting is at 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin'
The 'Enabled' DWORD value can be set to '1' to show the operator skin or '0' to show the default skin
wow that is so much faster! Thanks!
Although - I was talking about a completely different skin? Unusual!
Ahh well this one is just what I need - a phone.
Ta!
The problem with method is that you lose the button for video calls. Is there a way around it?

HI,
I tried the buttons and I cannot get video calls with the default phone skin (as explained above).
Thanks.
the most interesting about it actually is that it will give you 10 Megs of RAM...if you can live without the videocalling.
My videocalling button appears to work. :?

How exactly do you get that extra space?? Does it require a hard reset or can you delete the extra files? If the latter which are the correct files to delete?

Manila 2d almost in landscape, need one more thing...

Hey guys,
Ive been working very hard at getting Manila2d to work in landscape (when you flip out the keyboard while manila2d is active then it will automatically switch today plugins)
this is the last piece of the puzzle: i need a today plugin that works in landscape and that can be skinned to look like TOuchflo 3d in landscape (basically skinnable shortcuts)
if i get it working ill release a .cab!
thanks guys
something like RLtoday maybee???
Very curious how it looks in landscape on my Kaiser

thanks for the suggestion mate.
however after Googling it i saw that it was more than just a few shortcuts, even though it could easly be skinned. can you have it where it only displays shortcuts? if yes, then i will definitely try it out
recommend the landscape same as HTC touchpro after flip out keyboard
http://www.htc.com/www/product/touchpro/overview.html
yes, thats exactly how i want to skin it.
does anyone have any othersuggestions for programs that might work for this?

If you want it like that maybee something like mortbuttons is a better option...
Don't know if it's easy to skin..
thanks again man
i just downloaded mortbuttons and it appears that its only a standalone applicationa dn not actually a today plugin, but i think im missing something.
ok: can a developer whip up someting really small thats just a today plugin thats made for landscape that looks and acts like the touch pro's landscape?
thanks
I could make an rlToday skin super fast for ya. Tonight even. QVGA I assume? I'll leave the purdy graphics to you, I'll just make a template. How's that sound?
I would focus on Touch Dual and Action Screen.
When you sliding the keyboard of Touch Dual - the action screen starting up. Maybe something similar is done on Touch Pro.
Cheers,
Chris

1stly : the wasy u guys help each other out - like a family - I LUV DAT...!! 2ndly I SSSOOO LUV DIS FORUM...!!! As soon as I have cleared my overdraft am donating. Dyin with anticipation for TF3D to arrive.
Nearly done, but it's 3am here in Aus I'm going to hit the sack, and will upload the completed one tomorrow.
It's based entirely on rlToday, and respects rlToday's application shortcut menu [so all customisation of app names and links can be done without touching XML ]. Nothing fancy, no animations, but it'll work.
Edit:
That's a lie. My trickery to over-ride what I was going for didn't work, so to edit the shortcuts you'll have to dive into XML for now, until I can find a way around it
are youy actualy working on manila2d or skining some other app that looks like it?
What about HTC HOME? that works in landscape
Ask APBilbo. He made something similar with ThrottleLauncher in landscape.
Any news on the landscape???...my kaiser is screaming for it
i am close on landscape look at the pictures below
I've got my somewhat finished rlToday skin here if you'd like me to upload it. All it needs is the XML to be changed to link to whatever apps you want, and change the icons to whatever you want.
Give me a yell if you still need it.
what about today life? Not sure if thats what your looking for.

MortButtons?!
You can either bring up a skinned Menu or the Buttons Today Pugin.
Not sure if that's what your after.
But it would be drawn to the screen much faster then RL.

I 2nd the motion for HTC Home, its easy to use, elegant, and much more useful than a simple action screen. If HTC Home isn't the OP's preference, can we have a second version of the program that supports HTC Home?

Good alarm alternative for wm ?

The alarm clock that comes on the HD is not great eh?
Anyone recommend me a decent alarm clock for the HD?
I use the freeware GSALARM from GreenSoft. Custom sounds, snooze function etc. - is perfect for me!

wow...I was just smiling
cradle alarm is a good alternative.
SPB TIme is good because you can move alarms around the clock by dragging to change times and has a bunch of features like stop watches, etc.
Ive used so far the standard alarm app included with winmo. But its very annoying that when its alert, i only see small icon in info bar at the top of the screen, and its very hard to hit that and then disable the alarm when ur sleepy!
Does anyone knows plugin to the standard alarm, or a full application that lets u close the alert by simply turning the phone screen side down? Or a program that at least shows the alert in the screen, and having a big button to close it.
Edit: Never mind! The G-alarm looks like just what i described!

You download the cab on the link, then install it on the same place (ie if you G-alarm is in device, then also install the skin cab on device. After that , go to option and choose that skin.

Same experience with the standard alarm app here, but I think it's the touchflo 3d interface that messes up the alarm on my touch hd. With touchflo 3d disabled the standard alarm app is able to provide much more feedback and control. Could this be a touchflo 3d error?

[THE] TP2 TF3D Neon Tabs - v1.2a [10-06-2009] - Coming back - Soon

TF3D Neon Tabs Theme
Still development in progress but so far I have managed to get the actual TF3D tabs to be in a type of "Neon" scheme.
I will be working heavily on this trying to go through all icons in TF3D making them Neon so there will be many updates to follow making this simply perfect.
Feedback more than welcome and opinions probably will be worked in.
Please note, people have confirmed this works on....
-- Touch Pro 2
-- Touch Diamond 2
-- Touch HD
If you do try this on any other phone, please let me know the outcome, I should be able to adapt the files to work on any phone in theory
The Cab file is fully un-installable so if you don't like them, just remove the program in Remove Programs and you're back to normal.
Screen Shots
Updates
Version 1.2a - 10-06-2009
- Changed some colours around to make it view better
- Added different options for different people, plain, transparent curtain, transparent slider, transparent curtain & slider (can't please everyone)
Version 1.2 - 10-06-2009
- Created the 4 icons in the people secions
All People - Favourites - Updates - Call History

There is no need to extract the file, it's a cab anyway.
Just copy the file to your phone and open it -it installs itself.

The slide part, the button that you hold to move and slide, the "block". Can't think what its called but its the rectangle block that you slide from left to right.
Ahh ok, you mean the slider .
I'm already using Lucarp's transparent slider.
I've attached it, so you can have a look for yourself what it does.

Here's a screenshot of the slider if you don't want to install it

Looks good, I want it to be a bit narrower though I think, not 100% sure yet, haven't made my mind up. Think I'll have a play around and might incorporate it in my icon set.
Update
Updated icons to include people section and also added transparent slider and transparent bottom curtains in so no need for extra installs.

Hi there, just want to say it works on my Touch HD Unfortunately I am using a chinese rom (Devilstone v3.7 with TouchFLO 34 2.1.38158.2), so I am not too sure if it will work with other cooked romr, just give it a try I guess~
Here are the screenshots:
This is just the theme itself (with Lucarp78TS.cab)
And this is the transparent both cab (I uninstall Lucarp78TS.cab)
Looks awesome on my TP2. Thanks dude, good job.
