you should add my htc home or my audiomanager
Your HTC Home, yes of Course, but your Audio Manager is just for the Audio-Manager and not a Theme for the WM-shell But good work anyway!!

Throttlelauncher!!!!
You forgot the best one out there!!
Hey thx, maybe its better than the MobileShell one
I'll test it now..

Well the first one is just a S2U2 Theme and not a WM-Makeover!
The Second one, yes, i'll update
The third one is the MobileShell one i've already posted!
It is more better to post whether the themes work for what type of device..because its really a problem for VGA users if after they installed it, they found out its for QVGA

The third one I specify to try the 3D not Mobile Shell one. There are two different links to two different themes. Try the 3D Diamond one by AM1759.

VGA apps being in small number as opposed to to QVGA are always labelled.
so:
if labelled VGA... it's VGA or has VGA support.
if not labelled... no VGA or "at your own risk" VGA support.
That's my view, of course some posters might forget about it
About the diamond 3D... I've always seen it as a variant to greatbal's. It's another SPB mobile shell theme...
UI is the same as greatbal's, just glossy... Very good notheless!!
Besides, on the same post as greatbal's and 3D you have a white diamond theme and dozens other variants.
The white/blue theme is also available on throttlelauncher.

Huh?! I see two Themes, but it seems, theyre both for MobileShell!
What do you think for which Program this Skin is?!

PS: Sadly i cannot try which Programs have VGA-Support and which not...To test it, i must have a VGA-Device, but i haven't one!
And i don't think anyone would Donate for this little Thing...I mean, the easiest way to see for what Device is:
-Make a Backup with SPB Backup
-Install the App and see!
-If you don't like the Theme or it's not working, Restore the Backup...

But there are no native VGA skins... In each case it's resized QVGA skin, so the quality is very poor ;(
Can anyone post their VGA themes here? I can't understand their language so I can't register
I'll try and dig up my hacked version of the iPhone VGA theme that was from the clownfish one on ppc-theme but without the fish background and put it up later on tonight.
Ok here's the files I used to get it working. I did some editing of the original clownfish files to remove their original background but still able to keep the icons and menu bar. Works like a charm for me. qa_layout and the games.reg enable the 9 button support.
Enjoy
clownfish = iphone vga clone that they did on the ppc-theme site.
Al i want is the diamond look in spb 2.1, like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402021 ..... who can me help with that??

Is this a native VGA or a resized QVGA ?
Can you post some screen shots ?
I believe it's native vga. Like I said I just simply extracted the clownfish cabs and used the .dat files I needed and modified them accordingly to remove the fish background so I could just use the default colour theme backgrounds that come with it.
Basically it's the bottom menu bar, and the icon pack for the program menu. The rest is all default SPB stuff, but it works nice for me.
You can see some pics of basically what it looks like at the link below. Honestly I'm too lazy to screenshots and upload them, sorry, heh.

Is this all the themes that we can get ???
what are the chances to have some of the amazing stuff that posted in the SPB Mobile Shell 2.1 Theme / Skin Collections Thread ???

It's not really a VGA theme but a blown up QVGA. But I made a VGA version of the diamond touch clock which is used in the "layout_C_3_contacts_vga" theme.

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.

I actually prefer the SPB Mobile Shell with the Greatbal Diamond skin. It's easier to use, more customizable and it doesn't fill up your memory completely (like M2D does, that crappy ****...).
The SPB MS can you download from their official page: http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/. It's a little fee (if you don't find a keygen for it...).
You'll find the greatbal skin for SPB MS here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402021 . Greatest WM art ever!

i use the latest onyx jr on my elf and it really satisfies my needs

there is no way touch dont have a 3d accelerator
M2d runs like a dog on my Touch so you dont have any chance of 3d working and even if someone did hack it its going to be so slow you wont be able to use it. Get SPB Mobile Shell and a decent skin - much faster.
Gotta say here, I am running onyx jnr & throttle launcher, and my phone has never looked better and it runs stable and fast. I can use touchflo that is installed with onyx without any issues, though it does require fairly regular ram cleanups (I just use quickmenu hibernate). But I am using throttle launcher as my homescreen - with pocketbreeze & pocketweather running inside it, and all other tabs of TL in use, phone is stable and fast.
I would highly recommend both onyx jnr & throttle launcher for touch users.
Onyx Jnr or Ultimate
is onyx jnr stable as i downloaded ultimate on my ELF and despite large free memory and relatively good ram it kept freezing and i had to reset alot

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.

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).
