Okay, I would like to acknowledge that this is primarily my fault because I was both lazy and stupid.
1. I downloaded the Etenskin+ smartdialer that is floating around here, as well as the landscape skin and installed them. They show up in my remove programs as Geo77... I definitely prefer it to the stock dialer but did not love the color so I...
2. downloaded the Vista Black skin from this website http://www.paulya.com/etenskins.htm
From my understanding this skin worked with smartdialer. I followed the instructions, unzipped the files and copied them into my windows directory. As I clicked okay to replae the existing files, I thought, "How will I get these off if I dont like them?" but it was too late
Well the skin doesn't quite work, there is sort of a blue shadow, almost like a double image and I like it but don;t love it, so now I want to remove it. Of course, I do not have a copy of the original files.
Any suggestions?!
just go to settings, remove programs, and uninstall the dialer. assuming you install using active sync or cab file

Thanks Weezy! I was kind of afraid to do that since I didn't know what would be left. Worked like a charm, uninstalled and then re-installed and I am back to step one.
The search for the perfect dialer skin continues!
I also tried that smartdialer with eten dialer and hated it. i hate the smartdial crap. so i just uploaded the vista eten dialer and it worked perfectly, except for when its in landscape mode. it screwed it up so i had to install it again. but no biggie. i see no purpose of using the phone in landscape mode.

I agree with you on the landscape mode. I threw it on since I have the room in memory.
I don't hate the smartdialer though, and I definitely prefer the etenskin to the standard dialer when I do need to use the keypad. I usually use voice command to dial a number that is not in my contacts, but for things like entering an account # or making a choice on a IVR, it is nice to have larger buttons.
I think there is a way you can get the etenskin and disable the smart dialer. Check out the website in my previous post in this thread.

Wait, I thought Black Glass was the only one you could get from E-Ten that supports SmartDial. So you're saying that others on the page (Black Vista) support it?
i have a tmobile Wing running wm6 and i have tried all htc touch apps on this website and they dont work for me... can someone either upload working apps(like the contact manager, the comm. manager, the cube thing) or upload a working ROM of the HTC touch(which will work on the WING) for the 64 bit computer??
how are you installing them?
you realise you put the cab file onto the phone then execute it there rather than your pc right?
thats the impression i get from your post...
yes i know that, i am not a nub... i have installed many apps, but they end up screwing up my phone cause it works so slowly
bump ...
All the HTC touch apps that I found from explode, they all work fine on my SX66.
Can you describe more about your phone, and how you install the application?
What symptom/behaviour are you seeing on your phone?
well, i transfer it to my storage card, and then run it. later i get a successfully installed message. i soft-reset my phone and then either the program doesn't start up, puts my phhone in a infinate reset mode, or doesnt work correctly.
the htc cube is installed, but i can see the cube! i see this S icon, and a P icon when i slide my finger from bottom to up . since it didnt work, i unistalled it.
the contact manager from the all htc apps extracted sticky starts up, but i cannot change the theme! i see the regular old contacts manager with a white bar, when i run my finger over it, it shows a letter, and scrolls to it, but doesnt have the touch interface i need, and its not graphical at all
and the comm. manager REMOVES my comm. manager, rather than adding one
i am running wm6, boots fine now, the following htc apps
-audio manager
-htc touch theme
-htc album
-htc touch skin for wmp
-spb backup
-htc touch wait cursor(got from freewarepocketpc.net)
that should explain a lot

explode? can you please post some links and i will try them and replay asap
The 'htc cube' your talkin about is not the actual cube. its called FTouchFlo and is used to scroll and launch programs by using gestures. the changing between s and p is changing between launching mode and scrolling mode. What your looking for is the TouchFlo cube, which i belive must be cooked into a rom to work well. there are other options out there that can be cab installed, just search around the forums.
u mean something like this?

2. i am on wisbar and wisbar desktop
3. device is atom life.
and i want to use the touchflo. can anyone assist me?
can i do the swiping even my screen is on the wisbar?
can anyone help me with this.
help is greatly appreciated.
thanks!
htc theme is not an operating system. it just alters the way it looks. im runnign wm6 also
wisbar is okay and i dont think it affects touchflo, except wisbar uses up too much memory
so who ever has touchflo working on wm6, can u please post a link to the file, and specific instructions on how to install?

Are there any HTC Diamond themes out there that are working with the 400x240 resolution of the Samsung i900?
None at all?
I don't Believe the Omnia is even out yet. At least its not in North America. Wait a little longer and I'm sure someone will start on one. But its real hard to make something functional from just a few screenshots.
Some HTC Diamond Skins for Omnia Pls...
Hey guys, just got my Samsung Omnia i900 last week and that is how long I've been searching for HTC Diamond Skins for my phone...so far no luck. Every skin that I transfer to my phone? The Mobile Shell hanged without fail. It would certainly be great if somebody can come up with some cool HTC Diamond Skins for Samsung Omnia...dying to lay my hands on some cool skins....

yeah man..ive been using my Omnia for abt a month already and all i can use is the standard SPB Mobile Shell 2.1 software..
It would be ****in' cool if someone could create a HTC mobile shell theme specifically for Omnia's screen size and resolution..
You could try Throttle Launcher with TouchFLo3d. You will need to set the height of Today plugin manually in Throttle Config, sorry I don't have mine installed at the moment I just flashed to H1 but just play with the value til you get it right. Also uncheck full height, and uncheck hide softkeys. If you don't do this there are problem with the bottom navigation bar hiding behind the soft keys after rotate from landscape.
Join the club, nothing exists for a WVGA screen yet either (Xperia), though can't wait, they are going to look great!
Strange.....
I Have a Diamond and i love the Omnia Theme
yet people with Omnia love the diamond skin......
Strange Indeed

Sorry for being thick, but how do you install the theme? I have unzipped the file and its given me a shed load of files.
Thanking you in advance
More skin here:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PU2LZ60P
Credits goes to Mikibest.
To install the theme, simply copy all file in the skin directory and paste in the same directory of Spb mobile shell in the device, then soft reset.
Enjoy it and sorry for my poor English.

open ur hp folder using activesync.then go to program files.look for the spb mobile shell folder.then copy and paste the load of files u unzipped and replace it with the ones inside the folder..then do soft reset
hope u understand..
on Modaco there is a "Mikibest" pack version 1.1 (whatever that means).
It has some mort scripts that allow you to switch between one of several different skins and rapidly test them out without a soft reset.
All Omni Size.
I have yet to find a use for the Samsung Widgets. Aside from the notifier and the clock, they are pretty much useless. I had been using Samsung home 2 (which is similar to HTC Home)
Most of the functionality of Mobile Shell is built into the Omnia with the Samsung today plugin, a weather plugin and their main menu, dialer, and contacts etc.
My only gripe is the lack of 3G in north America and the fact that it has fewer buttons than the Kaiser and Titan.
I like the one screen keyboard. Together with the G sensor and haptic feedback, I prefer it to my kaiser keyboard.

May i just ask, how do i install this theme on my omnia, i'm new to this and i'm not quite sure.
Hey everybody,
sorry for opening a new thread but this is really important to me since Im a real noob in stuff like that.
I found that one here and I love this theme
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424479
well my problem is, that when I'm installing the CAB nothing changed.
Then I realized that I need to install SbP Mobile Shell 2.1.2 right?
I did that and installed the CAB file again. But when I start my program its completly deformed, no bar, no icons and some weird arrows showing to the right.
What can I do to get this theme running on my diamond? Can somebody give me a GOOD instruction?
Thank you very much...

Buy an Omnia
Seriously, this wont work good on Diamond.
The skin is QVGA resolution, and Diamond is VGA, this is why it is looking obscure for you.
well but is there any chance to get that skin on the diamond?
Does anyone have the CAB file of the MyFave 5 to run it on the phone. I have unbranded and unlocked but would like to edit my Fave 5 contacts right on the phone.
Didn't they do away with myFaves?
Not if you already have it..
Its been grandfathered, meaning you keep it until you change your plan.

Only TouchFlo, I need to finish grabbing stuff from the Dash 3G to get the Flash App. That is removed by HTC in the TP2 version (The MyFaves.exe & SWF files).
I made a MyFaves cab a while ago as a regular today plugin for WM6.1 ... (Non touch flo, manila, sense or whatever)

I tried this on a HTC Jade and it installed and showed on the Windows Mobile Today Screen but will not work properly. I got the text saying MyFaves were refreshed but immediately got another saying "Your new handset does not support myfaves icon synchronization." You have any ideas?
