1 Tab HTC Home

Guys,
First of all thanks to all contributors on this site.
Now let me mention that i'm not artistic at all, hence i depend a lot on all the great skinners here to make my device look neat.
My question is : I'd like to have the Tab bar disappear from HTC Home if i only have 1 Tab. Actually let's just make it disappear. Is it possible? The reason is that i just want to use the Home screen as i use other softs for Weather, Launcher and Contacts. That would save quite a bit of space on today.
If anyody has done it or knows how to do it, please let me know.
Thanks
Matt

the closest thing ive found is pocket digital clock a couple threads below... or the batterystatus theme i use in my iStyle theme

Goto post #1 of that thread and download the zip file for the original theme and extract the htc files and overwrite them in your device. You should probably disable htc home plugin first then re-enable. You might have to soft-reset as well.

Hm...all it did was make it 1 tab, it did not make my tabs disappear

i suggest you check out UltimateLaunch, ditch htchome and use a small clock or something like RLToday. I chose to use RLToday for just a clock and messages notifier

I also would like to see this. I have been looking for this for a long time.

I'm interested also.

As Michaelr219 suggested above, search for "pocket digital clock". I've been using it for a few days and it works well. It takes up less space also.

I highly recommend using batterystatus theme:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350510
There are lots to choose from and some look much better than HTC home.

yeh, batterystatus and it's themes are very cool & flexible!!

[20080920] Opensource XIAMultiTheme - New engine is ready! Look at Youtube Video

XIAMultiTheme is a multi purpose skinnable GUI so you can make your launcher or multiple "today"
Themes are very closer to rlToday but the engine is dll based so if you like to write a widget do it!
http://www.xiaprojects.com XIAMultiTheme
20080920
Tested and working:
- Unlock
- Incoming Caller
+ New debug test software: XMT_EventTester.exe use this if unlock does not work properly on your device.
If you do not like the Unlocker popup when the light turn off remove the line with event="56"
20080919
* Animated Manila Weather theme sample! (loop every minute!)
20080918
* New Engine release!
- Gestures
- Animations
and a lot of new features, look at theme samples.
Tips:
- Use the installer/Uninstaller exe to first step, than run configurator!
- if you like to use bitmap fonts remember to put 0.png into the folder
- if you like to use TTF fonts remember to call it like it's name ex: Cicago.ttf
- Warning: if you are using a task manager software take care when tapping on OK on today configuration applet because your task manager may not really send "OK" tap!
- to disable unlocker feature simply put an empty theme name
- do not develop theme with a lof of "convert" please use "folder:"
- scroll and DnD are very heavy features, enable if your pda is powerful
- do not forgot to pay me a coffe... it's a GPL opensource XIAProjects product!
How to test/Help me?
- this engine will load rlToday themes test my engine with them! report differences or try make newest with new features like page management!
PS:
It's a opensource because I like opensource and respect people ideas so... do not start copying code to gain money!
PPS:
donate money via paypal

Help with installing
This looks interesting, have looked before but couldn't work out which files/folders to put on ppc?
Could you please explain what to load on to ppc, once that is done I'm sure I can figure out how to use and/or make a theme.
Sorry if this is simpler than I think, still learning.
Downloaded 0.6 but will update to nightly build if you answer this, tia.

privacy issue, sorry

Hope can help

Does anyone experienced incompatability issues with XIA MultiTheme and SPB Mobile Shell 2.1? XIA MultiTheme works great inside UltimateLauncher however as soon as I install Mobile Shell 2.1 my PPC freezes after bootup...
It may have nothing to do with XIA MultiTheme but just thought I'd try and rule out possibilities given that this application is at alpha or beta level.
UPDATED:
Disregard...I got them working together...

Thanks for the great program!
One question: Does XIAMultiTheme support image resizing? I've tried setting Width and Height but instead of scaling the image it crops it to the height/width.

Is this thread going anywhere.
I was excited when I found out about MultiTheme but got less excited when I could not find much documentation.
Also, the source has been locked. Not Opensource anymore?

Great app!
Hi Stefanux
I've been using rlToday for more than a year now and really like this fully customizable today plugin. I was really excited when I saw that you've started to implement a similar application that also supports tab switching. I've been playing with it for a while and my first impression is: thumbs up!
Are you also planning to implement rlToday's feature to display a monthly calendar overview? (i.e. show a grid with all the days of the month)
Thanks heaps and please keep up the good work!

Nightly builds stopped.
It looks like the last build was end of June.
Maybe he's on holiday?
I hope this work continues as it does look promising.

"I'm studing for last engeneer exam! which will be 21/07!"
Good luck.

On with the ap
Hi Stefanux,
I really hope everything went well today.
I am really looking forward to working with XMT, I have used rlToday for awhile now and enjoy the full control abilities that the app allows. That said I believe XMT will be a killer app. You are probably too far along in design to make this change but it would be good to shorten the program names so that they are legible in the file explorers. The XIAMultitheme..... really gets too long to see which program I am tapping.
Two of my rlToday themes use variations of the calendar as seen in the default rlToday xml which at this poing won't move to XMT and I would like to use some variation of this full month calendar. Is this a part of your current plans or should I plan on coding myself?
Again I hope the exams went well. Glad those days are way behind me.

Hi, first of all I'm a noob, so bear with me, second, thanks for all your great work.
Now, I'm struggling with the XIAMultitheme, I installed as the instruction said, and tried with the Manila and the MiniColor themes, but I always got the same result: a blank screen, only the original wallpaper. I think, that's because the only selected "item" in Settings -> Today -> Personal is XIAMultiTheme....so...where is it?
....what am I doing wrong?!?
Thanks in advance

how to remove notification
Hello stefanux,
XIAMultiTheme look really promising
I'm a big fun of rlToday myself, and I'm looking forward for even more customization
One question though: Playing around, I messed with the directories and while I'm trying to uninstall XIAMultiTheme, I get the "Could not execute ...XMT_OnPowerOn.exe" Notification Error Popup. How do I remove it? I have already tried the XIAMultiThemeKiller.exe and XIAMultiThemeUninstall.exe but the popup insists to come up when I turn on the screen.
Any hints?
thank you and keep the good stuff coming

Update NEW Themes for I780 & i900 for "TodayLife"

Work discontinued due to Today Life Developer has stopped development on this project. Sory about the screen shots I accidentally removed them from imageshack.​
NEW i900 Omnia Theme. Monday Morning, all credit for this theme goes to the talented Bluemetalaxe you can visit his official thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414699
All I have done is convert this theme and some of the graphics to fit on the Samsung i900 Omnia. Please read the the Notes and instructions below before installing.
This is a Theme for Today Life Program for Omnia i900 Only
PLEASE READ THIS FIRST BEFORE DOWNLOADING!! --NOTE: This Theme is Only for I780
--------------
This is only a theme for the program TodayLife. The program is not completed and is still in development. Meaning there are tabs without any function, or some functionality may be disabled from time to time for testing and developing purposes. As the program is updated I will be updating this thread with information on the newly added functionality and options. This program does not require any 3rd party shell or programs.
Credit and Thanks goes to Dazzlingdaz for creating this wonderful program.
---------------
I will not waste time answering questions to the general operation of this program or problems related to the program itself. This is not productive for me or the developer of the program Dazzlingdazz to have to answer questions in multiple threads. So if you have program specific questions or problems or suggestions of options or functionality to be added please post them in the TodayLife thread found here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2402534&postcount=1

FAQ ( Please Read)
Q. It crashes because of xxxxx
A. First try copying and running the files from system memory as some devices (HTC Touch) have issues resuming from standby with program running from the storage card. If the program still fails - edit the config.XML and select YES for errorreporting - then run the program - when it crashes post the errorreport text file here and I can try and help you.
Q. Why is there nothing on the calendar or music or blah blah page?
A. Because the app isnt finished yet - as clearly stated above! - more is being added
Q. What version of WM do I need?
A. 6.x - it does not work on WM5 or below
Q. How do I install it?
A. You dont! - simply copy all files to a folder on the device and run the EXE - that's it - no install - no uninstall - nothing changed on the device - no registry entries required.
Q. What is the default unlock sequence
A. 1 single guesture - ^ (you can change this on config.xml)
Q. Can I change stuff?
A. Yes - everything! - the landscape.xml and portrait.xml contain all the positions for the icons and layouts for the skin, while config.xml contains details about non-skin related options
Q. What Compact Framework do I need?
A. You need either 2.0 or better still 3.5 - unfortunately some custom rom cookers have not fully incorporated CF into their build and this may cause you problems - not just with my app but anything that uses CF. My only suggestion here is to try an updated (or different) base rom! - it works perfect with all the WWE builds with CF installed - so I know it's the rom
---------------------
Current Functionality of Highway theme:
Home tab is about 90% finished. There will be some modification in the future like: Tower when press to open comm manager or WiFi. When press signal meter it opens default comm window. When press sun it will open weather. When press clock will open alarm.
The contacts tab is currently empty but has been tested and will have a very smooth scrolling contact list.
The settings tab currently is only for program exit, future additions on this page.
The Big red power button is the Program launcher and is on all tabs. When you open the launcher just scroll and tap firmly in a straight up and down motion. To go back to the main screen gesture from right to left
Volume, still in development but to see how it works click on the speaker icon, then gesture up and down to change volume. Note Vibrate not functional yet. Gesture right to left to exit volume.
For email you may have to edit the Portrait.xml to define your email account. Mine is set to Hotmail. If you need help let me know.
Vmail indicator does not seem to be working. This is one reason for me to release this now as I need help testing on the I780. It seems to be working on other devices.
-----------------
Note: almost all the graphics except background and sun were created by hand, by me, and took a lot of time and effort. So if you use them please give some credit.
-----------------
The latest version of Today Life is included in the zip file. To install Download the zip file and extract it on your PC or directly to you main memory of you device like My documents. Then just click on Todaylife.exe

What can I say? I am speechless. This is a very nice theme, a refreshing change to the Diamond theme...
For future expansion, you can consider installing an ICU (in-car unit) that will call out the player (s2p, mortplayer, HTC AM, WMP, etc..)
Once this is completed, it will be an awesome theme!!
Keep up the good work.

New Monday Morning Theme for i900 Omnia
Updated on the first page for download. Thanks to Bluemetalaxe for this great theme. I just converted it and some graphics to fit on the Omnia. Remember this Program is still under development by Dazz and it is not fully functional yet. But enjoy and I will keep it upgraded as newer versions come out.

Excellent adaptation from a qvga to a wqvga. You kinda make me want 1 omnia....

Wow, looks very nice. Especially on the Omnia's widescreen, hopefully the developer will add more functions soon.

First you are using omnia i900 right? With the monday morning the correct? Is it the same in landscape? And is the calender and contact page ok?

Is there a QVGA version of "Monday Morning"?

Hello, thanks for good work on the subject of omnia, but also will you convert the other or do not have plans for that?

[htctoucher NEW black gloss/vistaish skin] willing to help out? good with mortplayer?

been working on a theme.. but dont have time to do all the work necessary to actually turn my mortplayer design into an actual skin. (mortplayer skinning is kind of confuses me)..
if someone likes this design enough to be willing to take this on I will supply you with all the graphics so we can work together!
** also.. I am taking suggestions, so shoot away **
looks like this so far:
(not fullscreen.. the windows mobile topbar will be visible still with this skin (qvista skin can be used as basis for this skin))
and main page
and bigger album art
TO DO:
alarm page and selection page
In the same scheme I have done:
s2u2 (callerID and lock)
rltoday
throttlelock
pocketcm (not pictured)
weatherpanel (full screen)
to do:
opera (most likely) - kind of waiting for more stable/newer release that I am satisfied with
Dialer
anyone up for the challenge?
(right now I just need help making the mortplayer design an actual skin)
would be greatly appreciated (I would love to be able to use this skin :-D)
thanks guys (in advance hopefully)
htctoucher

I like the look. Do you know if the ThrottleLock skin will work with a VGA device? thanks!

That rltoday Skin doesn't look too bad, but I'm curious as to why you chose rlToday over say Homescreen ++ or ThrottleLauncher. But none the less its a great scheme you've got going there.
Also... Its abit difficult to determine artist from the screenshots of Mortplayer provided, you should probably make it abit more obvious or uniform with the track or possible associated with the track name itself (Title - Artist) etc.

used rltoday cuz im used to it and its simple/i know how to skin it
I also can accomplish everythin I needed to accomplish.. Im not familiar with ++ (does it do something rltoday cant?)
no throttlelauncher because it is too much, and then I cant use weatherpanel.. I just like the simplicity of my set up as it is (I use ultimate launch have 1 bookmark page set up within UL, 1 shortcut page set up within UL, rltoday with appointments, time, alerts, date, some more shortcuts and then a weather page)
as for the mortplayer, I see what your saying, but as it is whatever is within parenthesis (), is the artist. once you know you probably wont forget it, plus then that it saves space (good for qvga especialy)
thanks for your feedback
htctoucher

added alarm page (still needs some work but just so you can see where I am headed)
no one interested in helping out?
looks like I am just gonna do it myself.. gonna be a while

sorry bro i have never skinned anything in my life. once my grandfather asked me to help him skin a goat ... couldn't do that either
best of look though. looks nice so far.

htctoucher, can you share this throttlelock skin? thanks!

Id be happy to look into it, so what EXACTLY do you need help with?

yeah ill look for the throttlelock skin on my computer when I get on it and then upload it!
also, adderz
what I need is help with the mortplayer skin file it just takes so long to do!
let me know if you're interested and ill send you each page which you can cut up (photoshop or paint-not sure about paint) and then place (via the skin file) if you want to
let me know if you're interested!
thanks for the interest.. I thought this thread was long dead
htctoucher

yeh send it along, i think you have my email address from last time.
Good to see you worked out how to do those Comm Managers, they look great.

Great work Mister!
This looks rather good!!! For those Throttle Launcher fans you can always install the RL Today Page as a plugin whilst changing the footer pngs, should be easy enough. I'll be having a go at this, if it works in TL we should buy the guy a pack of beers each... Agree?!!!

Energy ROM skin development(updated test dialer)

UPDATE: 4-16-09 Tried an update on the Wait cursor only cab
UPDATE 3-30-09: added the registry entries for battery in waitcursor skin
added wait cursor only cab. If someone can tell me who made the original taskbar, I will give full credit in this post. Thanks
updated dialer skin(thid will only work on VGA devices with HTC or ATT slide dialer.
The purpose of this thread is to keep skin discussions and ideas for the Energy ROM in one location, and to save space on NRGZ28's thread.
I am working on skinning some components for the ENergy ROM, full list will be at bottom. I'm basically trying to add to the already great look of the ROM without adding too much(like the Elite project which looks great). Please post any ideas, and if you are graphically talented at all you can help out in the process. I am planning on making a few variations on some skins for people to choose from. These may or may not be cooked into the ROM, or even better installed during customization for people who like the plain old stuff
I am very busy right now moving from QVGA to VGA, and have my fingers into all sorts of stuff(skinning, ROM cooking, and some other things). Any help with skinning would be greatly appreciated. I have a great deal of knowledge for skinning almost all aspects of Winmo, so if you want to skin something but are not sure how to go about it just ask. There are some great tutorials and resources at www.SkinZone.org if you haven't been there yet, I suggest to have a look. There is a great team of skinners there and we are all willing to help with any issues you might have.
Please use this thread as a central meeting place to discuss ideas and share skins that will go good with the Energy ROM. Sorry if I missed something, I made a really nice thread yesterday, but it was lost in the fire(XDA was hacked or something yesterday)
Progress so far:
-Wait Cursor: Made this for Energy ROM, but decided to share as most of the kitchens I have been using include the same taskbar icons and stuff. The attatched cab is a full taskbar replacement, as well as the cursor. This uses no additional RAM or programs, as it is just replacing the stock items.
-"White" Energy wallpaper: This is most likely going to be used as a background image for Dialer, Commanager, Thumbcal, etc. I am posting it here incase any skinners on the same ROM would like to help out.
-Dialer: Uploaded second test dialer. Should flow better with the call history up top.
To Come:
In no specific order, I bounce around a lot so whatever gets done first gets done.
-Full dialer with in call and curtain
-Communication manager. Need some help on this. The new Rhodium Commanager with enhancements uses a different background than the Diamond or Kaiser commanager. Diamond one uses P_BG.png, which I found and changed but has no effect on this commanager for some reason. Anybody with a cab or OEM of this? Is it someything built into the new manilla? if so can you point me to tje right manilla file?
-iContactBE: Using some of the new notification icons and colors to compliment the new Manilla interface
-Thumcal: again to compliment the new Manilla and incorporate the "White" Energy BG
-PocketCM Keyboard
-Windows Media Player skin
-TP2 Calculator
-Resco Explorer\Registry
-Opera Splash Screen
-suggestions?
Skins I would like to see from others( feel free to skin the above list as well)
-PocketCM contacts
-Yota dialer/contact replacement
-S2U2
-Opera?
-Anything you wanna skin
Please see following posts for screens. I will update this thread as needed(when I have time) If you post a skin you can PM me and I will add it to the first page. I'll be attatching items wherever for now until the collection grows.

Sory, didnt realize I needed to add the registry entries for batery. Should be a cab floating around in the "FlenixNover customizing taskbar thread". Updating the cab now. should be ready in about 15 minutes. If someone could tell me the creator of the original taskbar icons, I would like to give credit in the first post.

Awesome. I will have to cook this stuff in the next release...

Thanks NRG, making this stuff special for your ROM, since thats the one I like until I figure out how to cook all those goodies in myself
Anyone using the Energy ROM, please do post opinions on some of this stuff so we can get a good looking ROM. Don't want to just hear " I dont like this" or "I dont like that", if you dont like it either post a suggestion or skin it yourself.

jmckeejr.... from PA.... you would not happen to have a relative named Joannie would you?

Not really sure. Haven't been to the family reunion in like 10 years.

JM,
Here is what I came up with for MWC 3. Hope you like it!

I started doing that, then got sidetracked. Looks good, I stopped using MWC because the transparent parts would stick sometimes. I mean when I switched to a different program or page there would be a square where the transparency was. Is that fixed in the new version?

hey bud I think your doing awesome work please keep it up

That was a problem with 2.2. So far, I haven't seen it with 3. There is also an option to set up a 'time out' on the cursor, so it stops after the length of time that you set it for.

hey i just noticed that when i installed just the new wait cursor you made, it works and all but sometimes you see the old wm spin wheel behind it....it flickers behind it thus making you see both of them which is odd...that shouldn't happen. so i just wanted to point that out to you so that it can be fixed cause that wait cursor sir.....is FANTASTIC!!!
P.S.---- I was wondering can you make a cab file with just the new icons for the stuff you see in the settings etc...they come along in the topbar wait cursor cab but i would just like those seperate if possible!! THANX A MIL!!

I'll look into the dll file in the wait only cab/. Maybe I left an old image in there or something, couldnt test it. Gonna be busy a couple days though, so I would suggest to use the full one for now. I cant stand the stock icons up top. I dont know if I should cab up just the icons, cuz I didnt make em. If you wanted you could just extract the files and overwrite them into your windows folder. phcanpverbmp.dll, tapres.dll, and I think I have outres.dll in there. I do plan on continuing this stuff, but right now I'm sort of trying to learn how to cook my own ROMs.
I'd like to be able to cook a ROM with all the core apps I use. Not having a problem cooking them, its just trying to get all the updated packages from rhodium that are already ported. I need a few more and then I can really start. And then I can cook in all the skins from skinzone.org as well.

Hi jmckeejr,
Having a look at the jmckeejr_waitcursor.zip that you posted on the Raphael OEM Repository. Noticed that the .RGU file seems to be adjusting the Battery registry settings.
Are these .RGU settings actually required or can I simply replace Shellres.192.dll.0409.mui with your version to get the wait cursor? Reason I ask is that I am using the TP2 Color Icons which change the registry settings for the battery.
Cheers,
