[SKIN] DarkDiamond Resco Keyboard

Hi all guys,
this is my first contribution to the community. Hope all Diamond owners/Resco Key users like this...
1) Download the file from HERE and unzip it.
2) Copy the entire folder into "Skin" under your Resco Keyboard folder.
3) Select the DarkDiamond skin from the SIP options panel...
That's all!

hmmm
actually..
i have a stupid idea.. and i guess only i will appreciate it...
is it possible..
to make a pretty transparent keypad? not entirely transparent.. but with that tinge of black to it...
reason is because.. half the time.. the keypad blocks the entire screen!! so unreadable.. at least if its quite transparent.. i can see wad i gg on.. behind the app.. if its too transparent it aint good too.. too complicated...
OR!
a movable keypad.. not one tt is stuck at the bottom.. slides from the side? haha ok i know..wishful thinking..
anyway great job with the black keypad it looks real cool man..

For sure there are no ways to make a movable keypad using resco...moreover this is just a skin and it doesn't affect in any way the fetures of the original program...
Anyhow I can try to make a semitransparent keyboard if you want..!
Maybe next days...stay tuned!

Hi,
There is a problem with the skin, the letter "M" (right beside the "L") does not appear on the keyboard ...
Thank you in advance for your help

Message to delete ... Sorry

Any chance you could upload the file somewhere else? I can't access rapidshare.

is it fixed now?

Best regards.

After rotate: HD switches back to manila

This drives my crazy: After rotating the screen with gyrator, gsen or manual-button, the HD switches back to manila or any other last used system window.
(There are some posts inside some big threads wich nobody replied, so I start a new one for this bug only...)
This is VERY annoying if you just want to turn the screen for reading or writing a mail...

i dont know if this is the right method to do it.. but
try adding all types of exceptions to the list in gsen window/class etc of your messaging window!
i came across the same problem and this seem to fix it!
try it and let me know if it worked!

what have you added? manila is already added...

sometimes the bug disappears...I added the exeptions, but have to wait some times to see if the effect lasts...But thanks!

im not talking about manilla.. open the window you wish you dont want to rotate.. then hit the home button on your phone. then go to gsen configuration and add all the windows/classes/process of that application!
that should stop the minimizing of that window when rotated.. hopefully!
if someone has a better solution let us know!

? in dont understand. I do want to rotate for example the mail window, so i added all the others to "dont rotate". correct?

Did you test MobileMagic?

yes, same effect + too buggy

It's top bar's icons related problem.
If you uninstall them you should not have that issue.

As described in another thread. This may be caused by colorful icons/battery icon in top bar.

ahhh ok I'll try. Thanks.
Do you know an other way to display some battery percentage?

If you look around, there is atleast two color top bars that do not have this problem. The problem originated from one of the first color top bars (which everyone liked and used), but now just look around and try them till u find one that u like and doesn't have the bug. (i'd give u mine but i can't find the cab for either one) good luck

Please let us know if you find one, and where to get it.
Thanks.

i now use aebuttons plus to show me battery-percentage at a btn-click.

[THE] TP2 TF3D Neon Tabs - v1.2a [10-06-2009] - Coming back - Soon

TF3D Neon Tabs Theme
Still development in progress but so far I have managed to get the actual TF3D tabs to be in a type of "Neon" scheme.
I will be working heavily on this trying to go through all icons in TF3D making them Neon so there will be many updates to follow making this simply perfect.
Feedback more than welcome and opinions probably will be worked in.
Please note, people have confirmed this works on....
-- Touch Pro 2
-- Touch Diamond 2
-- Touch HD
If you do try this on any other phone, please let me know the outcome, I should be able to adapt the files to work on any phone in theory
The Cab file is fully un-installable so if you don't like them, just remove the program in Remove Programs and you're back to normal.

Screen Shots

Updates
Version 1.2a - 10-06-2009
- Changed some colours around to make it view better
- Added different options for different people, plain, transparent curtain, transparent slider, transparent curtain & slider (can't please everyone)
Version 1.2 - 10-06-2009

There is no need to extract the file, it's a cab anyway.
Just copy the file to your phone and open it -it installs itself.

Beautiful!
Thankz!

I'm going to be working on the lot in 'All People' tonight, so hopefully should have an update later.
Also going to be working on the actual button on the base, any ideas from anyone how you'd want it to look?

The slide part, the button that you hold to move and slide, the "block". Can't think what its called but its the rectangle block that you slide from left to right.

Ahh ok, you mean the slider .
I'm already using Lucarp's transparent slider.
I've attached it, so you can have a look for yourself what it does.

Here's a screenshot of the slider if you don't want to install it

Looks good, I want it to be a bit narrower though I think, not 100% sure yet, haven't made my mind up. Think I'll have a play around and might incorporate it in my icon set.

Update
Updated icons to include people section and also added transparent slider and transparent bottom curtains in so no need for extra installs.

Nice Icon's
Very nice work!...Would love to use these with my Touch HD!!

I can do them for the Touch HD too if needed. I just need the manila files uploading somewhere if someones prepared to do it?
Have you tried it on the HD? It might just work...?

I will try them out tomorrow and give you an update! Again, they look great! Cheers to your fine work!

Hi there, just want to say it works on my Touch HD Unfortunately I am using a chinese rom (Devilstone v3.7 with TouchFLO 34 2.1.38158.2), so I am not too sure if it will work with other cooked romr, just give it a try I guess~
Here are the screenshots:
This is just the theme itself (with Lucarp78TS.cab)
And this is the transparent both cab (I uninstall Lucarp78TS.cab)

Looks awesome on my TP2. Thanks dude, good job.

[THE] Make a Rhodium/HTCTouchPro2 MyMobiler Skin

Hi all
(Excuse me for my very bad english, I'm french )
I would like to have a skin for MyMobiler, which looks like Rhodium devices.
I have tried the Diamond skin, but it didn't match for the screen, because the resolution is different (640x480 for the Diamond and 800x480 for Rhodiums)
The Diamond skin is available here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466565
I think you can easily adapt this Diamond skin for Rhodium resolution values (400x800px).
I don't know how to do this, so if someone would be able to make one, it will be a very good thing for all MyMobiler users who have a Rhodium !
Thanks !
Sam

Hi salucsam,
give me a little bit time and it is reday for the TP2. I never know that it is possible for the TP2. But i have changed some things in MyMobiler. I have a very nice grafic for that (link).

Waouw Nice skin indeed ! I've download it immediately.
Well, I think you know MyMobiler software, so if you can do a skin for MyMobiler as beautiful as the skin you made for Manila, its gona be perfect ^^ Take all the time you need !

Hi salucsam,
it is ready for 80%. But i have one problem. About the grafic is
a BMP file the background i have is white and i cant make it
transparent. Ok i have one more idea but i must test it.
At least the 4 little control button. But this i a case of time .
I love the hacking and modding stuff.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Edit:
It is ready. A little bit quick and dirty. At this time only the background
and the zoom factor to 70%. You can change the factor in the xml file.
So be my guest and test it please....

Very good ! But.. Not perfect, as you will see on the screenshot I have take :
http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=842663screenshot01.jpg
Now, you just have to find a solution to have a background which is at 800x400px and not 640x480 like it is on this first skin you made (the white you see under. The screen is not complete)
And to find a solution for the white corners that you can see around the application. Look on my screenshot..
I really don't know xml code, so I can't help you for this -_-
Thanks, and good luck
Sam

Hi salucsam,
look at my screenshot. It is perfect.
And here the code from the XML file:
<form
position="0 0 480 800"
backgroundimage="tp2d.bmp"
clipcolor="FF00FF">
<control
id="200"
text="MobileView"
position="44 130 480 800"
zoom="70">
</control>
</form>
As you see it is 480x800 portrait mode.
I don't know whats happend on yor system.
Please check the xml file. You can open it
with the notepad or gvim.

Ok, its good for me now, for the HTC screen.
But for corners, I really don't know how to clear it...
Look at this new screenshot :
http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=575298screenshot2.png
As you see, the problem is those 4 black corners around the picture...I can only color them in black or white.
Do you know how to clear it ? I want them transparent, invisible.

The grafic is a BMP file. So there is no transparence possible. I can't change it to a PNG format because MyMobiler doesn't knows the format yet. Possible you can ask the author on http://www.mymobiler.com/.

Hi salucsam,
you found out more about your issues?

Did you guys get the hard buttons to work?

Awesome, I love this app, nice job!! still need some improvements.
I think MyMobilier need to be updated, with more skins and more functionality, but its great like is, specially WIFI

I think there is a way to get transparencies with a bmp file using an added Alpha layer to the original .bmp.
Ive been trying to get this skin to work but i can't even get it to show, any pointers?, as i can't work on the transparency if i cant test it!!
There is also a thread over on HD2 skinning my mobiler
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618050
EDIT got it to show! working on tranparency with Gimp!

I've only just noticed this thread!
I made a TP2 skin myself for MyMobiler a few weeks ago and I can tell you that MyMobiler has a bug that means the corners show when you use any other zoom level than 100% - the 'magic BMP colour' doesn't work at different levels. But, at 100% zoom, the bottom of the phone is cut off
I've tried e-mailing the MyMobiler author about these bugs a couple of times but he's never bothered to reply

Hi iridium, i was tried what i said above both in ginp and photoshop and although i can get the bmp to show transparent i can't get it to work on mymobiler, i have studied the HD2 thread on this and the touch pro and diamond threads, all the phone images seem to use this pinkish colour..what is this "magic colour" you speak of??! i have read what you have said about the bug and zoom etc, i am just interested to know as i spent a whole evening trying to work this one out!!!

Yeah, I spent a while on this too
If you have a look at defaultskin.xml, you'll see
Code:
clipcolor="FF00FF"
which is a kind of pink colour - this is the BMP colour that is treated as transparent and that's why the phone skins have that colour background in the corners. The only problem is, is that MyMobiler only shows the FF00FF colour code as transparent when it's at 100% zoom Drop down to 75% or 50% and the corners show.
Hope this explains what I've found out, please let me know if you find any more info?

Thanks for bringing me up to speed! ive just been testing the other skins as well and i now understand the same problem is for all, so unless you have a very tall screen it will always be the case.
I don't know about Xml but is there not a work around that we can trick the program into thinking it is displaying at 100% when it is displaying at 70? i'm guessing that would be 2 easy!!

My TP2/Rhodium Skin
I played around with this to get a skin to work. I am still having trouble with the start menu hard key, but the other buttons seem to work.
To get this skin to work, follow these steps:
1) Unzip the attached file to "\Program Files\My Mobile\MyMobiler\Skin\" directory. (It will extract to its own folder)
2) Edit the "\Program Files\My Mobile\MyMobiler\mymobiler.ini" and change the line for
Code:
SkinFile=Skin\DefaultSkin.xml
to read
Code:
SkinFile=Skin\TP2\skin.xml

Thanks man! I just tried it out, and it works almost perfect
First, I also had to change the line below that in the options:
"Showskin=0" to "Showskin=1"...Once I did that, the skin loaded fine.
There's just one small glitch, as it looks like the image has shifted "up" in the frame...it's cut off a bit at the top, and leaves a band showing down at the bottom (I'm including a screenshot to demonstrate). Hiding the toolbar improves it a bit obviously, but there's still a bit cutoff at the top.
Zoom works great though, no "squares" in any of the ratios I've tried
The "call" and "end" hardware buttons work just fine too...but the "home" and "back" buttons don't seem to respond.
I don't know if any of the issues are related to the fact I'm running a T-mobile TP2 instead of an unbranded or AT&T model like in this skin.
Anyway, thanks again for the effort, just wanted to give you some feedback from the field

Two questions really quick:
1) Which version of MyMobiler are you using? (mine is 1.25 Build 00122.0205.46)
2) Have you tried activating the skin through "View" -> "Show Skin"? Doing it this way turns off the toolbar completely leaving just the skin.
Thanks for the feedback!

icon problems

im trying to change my icons on the manila but only some of them change does anyone know how to fix this proble thanks

Which icons have you changed and which ones are not changing?

the weather and the calender changed but the others did not music, internet search, settings, people,home

What program are you using to change the icons?
I have been using cfc-gui to change my icons and they are grouped together depending on what they are (i.e. - tray, hero, people screen, weather screen, etc.).
Are you trying to change your "tray" and "hero" icons or icons within each tab?

no programs just cabs from different people on this site

You're not making the rookie mistake that I made and installing a cab (to change the icons) on top of one that is already installed?

yup, so what do I do? Help me learn

Just uninstall all of them and soft reset. You should be okay.

how do i do that? where do i go

Click the Start button in the upper left hand corner.
Start>Settings>System>Remove Programs
Select a program and click "Remove" in the bottom right hand of the screen.

sorry for the missunderstanding i knwhow to remove programs i want to change the icons but i dont know why only some changed and would like all of them changed

It depends on the cabs. Some people change all of them and some only change some. For instance, my cab that I have installed doesn't change the photo, music, or AT&T tabs because I didn't include them in the changes.

can anyone post these? im trying to change the calendar and history icon under my clock.

No way he can do that
Reason he intalled diferent themes on top of others so soon he uninstalles one wen he gos for the next on there will be an error cause windows will not find a second backup of the original.
Sorry to tell you but you need to hard reset your device.

for anyone trying to modify there manila icons.
Use CFC Gui.
Intructions easy way.
Connect you phone on Sync to you device start CFC GUI should be a options to extract all manila files from you phone.
After that you will see all kind of images change the one you want then send it to you phone from CFC GUI more instruction on CFC Gui threat.
Hope i help you all

So it won't just uninstall what it can "find" and not worry about what it doesn't?
Also, when unintalling a program/theme, how does it know what to revert back to? Are the original files not overwritten/deleted?
