THEME + RINGTONE + PHONE DIALLER all-in-one CAB file

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.

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

Comm Manager Skin Creation

I tried to create my own Comm Manager skin.
I'm not very used to programming but i'm very cabable in edit existing Programs, so i chosed to take Schaps Black Comm Manager to start from.
First i did extract the cab File, and used Reshacker to open the dll File. I replased the Wallpaper Images and then recreated the cab Installation File with ZipStar (which served me well before in creating cabs).
The Problem is, that the Installation aborts at approx 2/3 with an Security Warning (that never happend before with my other Install Files)
I dont have a clue how to fix that.
Additional Information:
I used Pics with exakt the same Size and File format as the original ones. (bmp 8bit and "fixed colors"I downt know the exact term in english)
I use the original Vodafone WM 6 rom
I want that Wallpaper (yes i know that this is a jpg and not the exakt size)
{
"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"
}
second step would be to replace the buttons but i wont try befor i get the first thing working.
So i hope someone could get me in the right direction.
And sorry for my bad english

I know what you did wrong Before editing any .dll or .exe, you need to uncertify it, edit it, save it and re certify it, otherwise they won't work. Search for "unsigner" and "msigner"

I'll have a try thnx so far
It worked!
Thnx...
It doesnt really look like i want it, but i think that could be worked out

Glad I could help

I thought that this effect was my mistake by making a not matching "Color Selection", for i used the standard "System (Windows)" Color Table with 256 Colors at my first try.
However, there has to be a key that defines black=transparent somewhere, as there is a key that defines pink=transparent in other Programs. I hope to find that somewhere in the Installation Files and i hope it is not burried somewhere deep in the Regestry or in other Windows System Files.
But i dont had the opportunity to try so far, because i had to work in the meanwhile. But i'll try for shure tomorrow in the evening after my work.
Your Skins are very good work btw. But i think i'll not angry you by saying: If you want something to be the way you really want it, you have to make it by your own ( or find someone doing it for you ).

I quite agree with you, I am just like you, when you want it can

I finally managed to make the skin, but it looks awful due to the 256 color restriction. I made everything in trying to adjust the picture settings and the color table (the shading effects are to uneaven).
BTW:
I didn't made it possible to display the true black color. But it is possible to make a "selektive color correction". A reduction of 1%-2% black is enough to get it displayed and nowbody will be able to notice that in the picture.

Ok i have a first concept. As u can see i have not changed the buttons correctly, but it gives an first impression how it would look like when finished.
This is a real Screenshot from my device:
I'll continue on it later, when i come back from my work.

Ok it is almost done.
Here is a new Picture of my Comm Manager.
Landscape has still to come and only the butons shown are supportet yet.

what is the cab from have yu begin?

New "Touch concept" app (ThrottleLauncher Alpha)

Dead thread....
see this one please:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354981
-----------------------
Hello Everyone!
I'm developping a Launcher App and I need some beta testing on it. I've tested it over some wm6 emulators and on my Herald WWE with Touch-it ROM. It uses .NET CF 2.0.
Basically it contains some horizontal scrolling list's. The scrolling can be performed by using the finger over the screen. It is fully configurable through config.xml file placed in the installation directory. Currently you can add 3 types of "elements" to each scrolling list or row (see config.xml for some examples):
- Icons: you can add the icon path (theorically every size is accepted) asociated command execution with parameters. You can also add the attribute "rowspan" if you hace some larger icons in the list for them to get more rows in the list.
- Allcontactswithphoto: this element will automatically load all the contacts you have with asociated photo. It includes a max attribute to avoid allocating all the device memory if you have lot's of contacts with photos.
- folder: this will add shortcut to all the files located in the directory especified.

Sorry, The screenshot does not contain the contacts photodial because I don't have contacts in the emulator .
Currently it doesn't allow:
- Changing between screen sizes (this includes landscape and portait). But it theorically can work with almost every screen size.
- Specify contacts to include in photodial.
Please, any feedback, advice or bugreport would be apreciated . And by the way, sorry for my english....
In the package there are also included some example icons taken from deviantart. I don't remenber the place or author I take them from. If someone find's them out please tell me.
By downloading and using this application you agree the following:
- Use this application at your own risk.
- This thread is the only place allowed to link to the file download.. If you like the app and you want more people to have it please place a link to this thread.

Interesting Will try this later

great work...Will definetly test it

kpyto, please, make sure you have this folder in the file system:
<folder path="\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\"/>
If you dont have it, change the path in the config.xml to point to your programs forder of the start menu or just remove it (the line of the config.xml).

same thing on I-Mate JasJam WM 6 Schap's 3.54b fr Don't work.
the same error msg.
thanks

Working On My Htc Wizard
Working For Me!!!

Ok, thats probably because of the languaje of the rom.... The programs folder of WWE ROM's is \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\..... You may have to change the path included in the config.xml 20th line, or if you tell me which is the Start Menu path of your ROM I will post here an apropiate config.xml file.
Any way, here you have a cab with config.xml without the line pointing to the folder. Just reinstall it...

\Windows\Menu Démarrer\Programmes\.....
for french rom.
but i found the prog in the \Program Files\ThrottleLauncher folder.
thanks

the new one work and its a good ide thanks

Nice concept.
And it's really fluid, but my only gripe is that the NETCF slows everything down...maybe a rewrite in C++ is in order eh?
Other than that, top concept 5/5

works on a touch... like the idea

Yes ,been waiting for someone to make horizontally scrowable rows.
But I would like it as a today plugin rather than as a today screen itself, because i miss a clock and apps that tell me about msgs and calls and stuff.

Very cool! Can't wait to see where this goes.

sprint touch
works as advertised on sprint touch...love teh interface, however is it possible to put it as a today plugin so that it can be used as a scrollable horizontal bottom bar or 2....something like a scrollable sprint home launcher...
it scrolls very smoothly though.
also, how do u add more buttons to the list, if its possible yet! how 'bout adding dynamic scrolling?

batcatman, you can add more apps by changing the config.xml. You can also add more rows with the elements described in my first post. To add another app short cut for example, just place inside a row tag in the config.xml a row like this:
<icon path="icons\Internet.png" exec="\Windows\IExplore.exe"/>
path: is the path to the icon.
exec: is the path to the exe file of the linked app
Thans to everyone for the comments. I will try to satisfy every request .

I vote for making it a today plugin. Would be much more useful.

this is looking very cool...nice work !
Looking forward for further releases.

Gaia iPhone Style Application Launcher

So here is a basic new theme based on the iPhone interface, i called it Gaia because i was inspired by Gaia Vista visual style by Imrik.
THIS IS FOR WAD2
~ Landscape and Portrait modes supported
~ VGA only
~ BASIC interface, mainly used as program launcher!
~ Slide through screens
*Note
If you dont have auto rotation 'Lock image' rotates screen!
Portrait Mode - Lock Screen, programs 1-3 ('+' add application)

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Portrait Mode - Notifications
Landscape Mode - Lock Screen, Programs 1-3, Notifications
I left the programs area 'BLANK' so nobody has to remap programs.
Program Screen 1 could be 'Most Used Programs'
Program Screen 2 could be 'Multimedia Programs'
Program Screen 3 could be 'System Programs'
^Just an idea
Feel free to mod/edit/change/hack any of the files but please link back to me
Thanks, Wez

Installation
*Copy Font to windows\fonts
*Copy BOTH 'Gaia iPhone' & 'Gaia iPhone L' to program files\lakeridge\wisbar advance desktop\themes
*Copy 'Wisbar Theme' to root directory on storage card.
Altough I haven't tried it yet myself..

By far the best looking WAD2 theme I've seen.
Any chance of a WVGA version?
Would love to use it on my Touch HD.
Thanks

will it work on WAD3?

Hi!!!
I followed the steps and do not see me, and I like a lot. I need help!

Ok if you copied the folders in the correct place and if you have a VGA device then you need to apply both the themes in the wisbar settings. Set 'Gaia iPhone' as portrait and 'Gaia iPhone L' as landscape theme.
You need to make sure your storage card is called 'Internal Storage' and nothing else. If its named something else, create a folder on the root of your device and call it 'Internal Storage' then copy the files over.

No sorry this is a different application

This is the first time I use WAD2. So I have a question.
How did you add Phone, Text, Email etc. in your Dock?
You made a nice theme.

First you need to create a dock (docks are transparent so i create a template and then the image i want to overlay)
Then you need, tap and hold on the dock, goto new and then button.
Chose a button image for normal and pressed actions
Add a script to that button so it linnk to a certain appilcation or control.
On the button settings you can add text so it appears under or over the top of the button, you can also change, font, colour, and font attributes.
Hope this helps

Installation
Hi wez89,
I tried installing the theme but was unsuccessful. I need your help.
I have Wisbar Advance 2.7 installed and I have performed the following:
*Copied the Font file to windows\fonts;
*Copied BOTH 'Gaia iPhone' & 'Gaia iPhone L' to program files\lakeridge\wisbar advance desktop\themes - which is on my storage card;
*Copied the 'Wisbar Theme' to root directory on storage card; and
Furthermore I have added a "Internal Storage" file on the root of the device with the Wisar Theme.
Problem is that I can't load the theme from the settings screen. Should I try and load the default.dat file from the igaia folder?
Thanks, great theme.

Is it possible to have something like this for the WM6.1 or 6.5 'start' menu (Manila)?

[Request] Picture plugin for Titanium (with folder choice)

I know it already exists one, but its not customizable in what folder to show.
My ideia is to mix some of the already available plugins out there.
The Favorite People plugin already has the show picture part done.
And the System and Weather plugins use mortcript for some extra tweaking.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I was thinking of a simple softkey button that allows the user to choose a folder (with a browse layout).
And a simple mortscript code to list all the available images on that folder, saving it to a text file database or so.
The plugin would have 3 pages (previous, current and next image). Then, as you scroll left or right, the mortscript would change the name of the images on the plugin pages to make a circular order (or random, if that extra setting existed).
The size of the pictures would be much bigger than the current one, like the plugin changes that theDaniel (used here as an example) and KerMiT80 already made. The picture date of creaton would be a nice detail, as shown in the example, but that would probably give much more work than necessary, so it would probably not appear.
Instead, the plugin could show the full count of the images inside that folder, and what number is showing at the moment.
The condensed view could show a text with a picture icon saying "x pictures in folder Y", being X the total number of pictures inside and Y the folder name or path.
And, of course, if you click on the picture it would pop-up the "picture viewer" showing that image.
This would be pretty easy for me to do in flash, but outside flash, not so much...
So, does anyone want to do this? I can help on the CPR editing, some of the registry code and do the dinamyc picture frame with a small shadow...

Someone is already making such plugin, rpereira is designing a slideshow picture plugin with a specified folder.

Thats great news, where did you read that?

hi twolf,need your help

I dont like analog clocks so never installed his plugin before, now that I did I just wanna change it:
The grey area would be extras, in case someone lese would want, I wouldnt use it.

Hi twolf,
It's the thread below where we were discussing the picture slideshow.
rpereira posted a video example of what was possible too.
I personally can't wait for this to be available.
