Themes for Spb PocketPlus

Where i can found a themes for Spb Pocket plus beyond to that they are found on the official internet site?
Thanks

I'd also like to know where you can find them...
I have only gone as far as getting .tsk files and using them on my Today them but the regular icons for Battery and all are default as always...
If it is out there, I don;t think it is free though but there is a utility that can help you make your own extended theme... and that is FREE

what you say??? i don't understand :? :? :?

try this link... got few spb extended themes

You can download a utility to make your own extended theme for free on the SPB homepage. It is not an application on its own but an extension of the existing Theme Generator that can be downloaded for free from Microsoft. And it is not very user friendly, but it does work.

SPB P+ help needed. I have a few themes I downloaded because they showed both the Memory & Storage amounts separately. But on my screen its one icon and my only choices is Memory or Storage or Show total memory for both. How can I split this up?\

Which program are u using for weather info iggy?

Marsware Weather Panel with animated icons skin.

You can actually make your own extended themes for SPB Pocket Plus, just download the theme generator from the official site, its free.

Iphone-like taskbar

Hi folks,
Is there a way to have exactly this bar permanently on today screen? The pic was taken from an Ifonz screenshot.
I have a Gsmart VGA WM6.0 pro.
I tried Wisbar and other stuff but no way..too heavy and not user friendly at all. The best would be a kinda tsk file or whatever... any help?
Thanx for the great forum..Bye.

The only way to have it permanently there is to use PointUI which has the top bar. Its not quite like the iphone bar, but it has what you need and acts as a task switcher as well as a way to get back to the pointui home screen.
I have asked the developer of the today life program (xml config tool with themes) he is making if he was planning on making a permanent top bar. But he didn't seem to care... such a shame too since it is useful.

Wisbar is the easiest way.
You won't get that without additional software.

Are you sure that PointUi is VGA compatible? I tried it before but it didn't work.

Which version? I believe the latest one is (it may be a seperate cab).

Well, they did a test version in the old 1.02 version. I don't think they ever did anything for their new 1.5 version in vga.
http://forums.pointui.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=862&st=0&sk=t&sd=a
There are some other vga programs listed in that thread that may interest you.

- problem is that this tasbar is much smaler than the original wm6-one.
- also the icons, text, everything is completly different. windows can´t handle this.
- so the only way to get exactly this taskbar is a net application that runnes over windows mobile.
- why should the programmer of todaylife make a new taskbar when he created a complete Gui thats above windows mobile ? funny !
- if you look at my thread (bluephone) you find a todaylife skin with a original iphone taskbar.

I will try PointUi 1.02 alpha and post feedback.
Thanx guys.

Why? He created a complete gui thats above WM, great! But it loses its functionality the moment you open a program and it goes back to the WM interface, top taskbar. I thought it was supposed to be "above" WM? How do you get back to the today life screen?
You even created a skin for today life and I tried it. Sadly, it doesn't feel like a gui replacement for WM when the taskbar changes to the ugly, non functional WM bar.
I don't know anything about programming. But there must be a way to keep that bar at the top. *sigh*

all apps are programmed for the big wm taskbar, even if someone could manage to let a new small iphone tasbar stay on top and hide the original bar, you would have a ugly free space between taskbar and any application. So you want nothing more than programm every available software for windows mobile new
so i can tell you just this two words: Not possible ! believe it or not.

Wisbar. It's pretty easy to make a skin like that, and it's not as heavy as you mention. Give it a second try!

PointUi alpha 1.02:
seems quite fine and fluid on my Gsmart WM6. I only hope it will be developped for VGA devices.
Wisbar:
I'm still not satisfied with Wisbar 3. It eats my ram and freezes the ppc. Not worth keeping it installed.
I'll keep the original WM interface as it is. Only some spb plugins will be kept in wait of some new advice or suggestion from the forum.
Thanx guys for all the enriching posts.
Ciao ciao.

It 'eats' about 300K on my device. I don't find that very much. Many plugins are more hungry.

as Syd159 said. It does not eat too much and I never had freez caused by Wisbar. It is normal app in combination with Ultimate launch (or SBP Pocket plus) you got total "new phone"

yes wisbar do consume lot of RAM and slow down my phone so I did't use it anymore

Imho I think that a today plugin like Gsmart glass can be worth trying. I like the gui and it belongs to Gigabyte (like my device ).
Have you guys tried it? If so is it that good?

can someone please help me! im trying to find a tiny today plugin that shows u ur GSM carrier name/logo ...mine is ROGERS ...just so i know that i have my GSM activated on my today screen!
builtin 'wireless' today item takes up too much space ,plus it displays wifi and bluetooth icons which i don't have a need for
cheers
for example in this pic, where it says Phone Off, i wud b nice if had a rogers logo or some type of Green icon so i know my gsm carrier is ONLINE

I'd suggest something like BatteryStatus (although it has a new name which I have forgotten!) with a skin with just GSM Status.
Also, whilst it's good not having another thread, you're more likely to get an answer in the Questions and Answers sticky.

any developement in this taskbar?

[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
Thanks!
EDIT: Worked out great!

Good job, thanks a lot !!!

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!

And tanks for finding the solution for the bluetoothicon issue!
Working good on my Diamond (but BTicon is realy low res..) anyway better than nothing!

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.

What today shell you really use?

titanium
I use titanium with the wm7 skin (+showaco wheather and appstar fave peoble plugin)
wm 6.5 (21500) is today use ready and it`s like an normal finger frindly handy menu....
thanks to all developers and rom creators....

spb Mobile shell ..
cause it is beautiful , reliable and easy to customized ..
Thanks ..

Now i use m2d and ms3 together but still i prefer m2d,
ms3 has more options and more effects but m2d works faster and its more practical with m2d i can do same actions quicker in less moves then ms3...
Found here TF3D, seems to be working for QVGA...tried on wm6.5 rom it didn't works...said its needed rom with opengl,
so if some1 tries and its working please report!

solved

3 devices all titanium fully customisable, simple, nice and sleek ...

In all these three I miss my tasks display on the today screen which SPB diary provides me ......

SPB mobile shell V.3 with close eyes!!!! M2D is very good but i think SPB is better. Titanium???? HA!! This is a joke.

Ever since Mobile Shell 3 finally came out, I've been using it. TouchFLO is just too much of a chore, and a little too simplified for my likes.
Getting one more head start, my new Polaris should be arriving within a couple of weeks.

using tf3d and mobile shell

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=1509
this method does not seem to work on my Imagio, if anyone else has another way to run both tf3d and ms3.5 at the same time, please post your method and in the mean time i am trying figure out a good way myself.
*dont know why the link isnt working but its in the development and hacking area of the forums

Why would you wanna run both at the same time anyway? They serve same purpose but has only different useability and UI. And running both of them would probably eat alot of RAM too..

tf3d has gps based weather and spb has customizable widgets, i dont need to run both at the same time but i would like the main today screen to be tf3 and be able to switch to mobile shell at the touch of a button.

Through a combination of TF3D Detacher and the Xperia X1 Panels, I'm running TF3D, Titanium, and the X1 home screen. I'm about to try adding MS 3.5 to the mix.

I couldn't add MS 3.5. The information on TF3D Detacher and the X1 panels are all over this forum, a quick search should pull up everything you need. I don't have any screen shots at the moment, mainly because I just did a hard reset and am running straight MS 3.5 (I'm OCD and will keep hard resetting until I get exactly what I want).
