you have to wait till tomorrow to get the answer....
They should work fine, but you might see some funky things due to the difference in screen dimensions. Since the Diamond is 480x640 and the HD is 480x800, some apps might look stretched out, and some might not fill the screen. But WinMo is WinMo no matter what device it's on, so they will function the same.

In theory.
Most wallpapers won't be the right size. I don't know if the HD will stretch them, or leave your screen with empty space.
Let us know how it goes once you have it!

Friends,
I've looked through hundreds of pages and can't find much that notes it is VGA compatible. Can any of you post links to shells that work with VGA? I'd love a WM7 or Diamond theme, or anything dark and attractive. A simple one with calendar and no tabs for lots of room.
Anyone?
There is less people use VGA device rite now thats why skin for VGA is only a little I just can find VGA skin at http://mobileshell.ppc-theme.com
Please if anyone have the info where I can find VGA skin for mobileshell , please share also thanks
I'm having no luck at all...

You are very positive. I am not.
Athena is about a year on the market. Universal, I guess about 2 years. Bouth support VGA. Didn't help.
Er.. you could try to edit your own theme. I own a I780 but in RealVGA mode at 96 dpi, all the layouts are messed. I did a lot of editing and came up with the basic theme running at 96dpi mode. I had also done a Diamond theme and did some modification work as well.
You could try to do it.

But HTC Touch Diamond is different you can see if anyone made a thread about "Touch Diamond" the views will be thousands so its different..hope this Diamond will really made all VGA users becomes diamond hehe
If I had a VGA Device to test with, I would support it on my themes, but unfortunately I only have qvga devices.
A friend is going to loan me his 240x240 for a couple days so I can port to that though.
need VGA
I for one very much miss VGA. I had a Dell x50v back in the day and the screen was AWESOME!
I WILL be getting the Diamond Pro (with keyboard) when it comes out in the US.

From what (little...) I understand Your main question is if Mobile Shell is VGA compatible and not about themes.
Yes, it is. I've been running it smoothly on my Eten X500+ for months now together with SPB Weather, Time and Diary. It is IMO fast and reliable and lacks almost nothing I want from a shell. I will try iContact again when someone makes it truly VGA-compatible (larger icons, buttons and text) but Mobile Shells contacts is also quick and easy to use.
Just FYI

Designed for qvga, but ThumbCal will upscale to vga I think.
Want to donate some hardware for me to make sure ?

Nice work again, but you're wrong. TC won't upscale it correctly. Upscale your skin to VGA and then compare it to the diamond VGA skin. You'll see differences.
Nice one!!! Really appreciate it!! thanks, m8

Ah cool. Thanks for the clarification. I'll try doing a vga version if there's enough interest.
Nice skin dude. Thanks.
i use this too and want to say thank you. but i think for a iphone skin it uses too dark colors ? isnt the Calendar more white than grey?
oi. now i'm torn between this and the original one.
I'm quite interested on a VGA version. I do hope you can provide it.

Yer it is quite dark, its not meant to be an actual iPhone clone, just heavily inspired from it. I have a dark theme throughout my whole phone (which Im prepping to launch soon) so it fits in with what I need. I might make a brighter version if your can convince me

Unfortunately I dont have VGA hardware to test on, nor the time at the moment to give it a shot. I can't promise anything immediately but when I do get a bit of free time I will maybe try (don't hold your breath though )
@nir36; cheers.
@snachez: i understand that you want it to fit to your other apps, and it really looks good. But if you find time i would be really happy for a brighter official look
if not, i´ll use it anyway.
this is my calendar for todaylife, maybe this inspires you

Yeah the new version of thumbcal has a different path rogram files\thumbcal
and iPhkali skin installs to programfiles\thumbapps\thumbcal(or something like that). Just move the iphkali file from programfiles\thumbapps\thumbcal folder into program files\thumbcal folder and it should do the trick.

Heres an updated version which puts it in the new correct path. Skin should still work fine as before.

I know everyone's been working really hard on the HTC Diamond interface to get it qvga, I was wondering if anyone's interested in trying to get the xperia's panel interface into QVGA.
Tried it...
The aspect ratio really screws things up...
(might work on the omnia better, but I don't have one to test it on, and it needs lots of little tweaks to get it to work...)
can you share the application? even for VGA i am getting an HTC Touch Diamond and i'd really like to have this feature if it can be used on it?
the dpi is 192, omnia uses 92...if someone just guide me, how to manage the OEM files, i can make a ROM for Omnia...well it is posssible to make a custom ROM for Omnia
that would be awesome.
tf3d is getting on the overrated side

The source code is also available here, if someone wants to take a crack at updating it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=417214
I currently only have a pre release build from a pre-release ROM.
The DPI is fixed, as in, there are no image DLLs, and the dimensions are fixed in the applications.
It won't work on a Diamond, as the ratio is all wrong (the "W" in WVGA does - surprisingly - stand for something).
w means wvga.
wvga was 800 by 400 px while vga has 600 by 400
youre gonna have a tough time but its not impossible.
try narrowing the panels

Umm... Do you want to try narrowing the panels?
I know it's difficult, and that is why I have yet to post anything!
W means "Wide", hence the Omnia has WQVGA, or wide QVGA. Also, WVGA is 800x480, VGA is 640x480.
If we find any skins that work on the xperia for spb shell, should we post it on this thread to keep track of them?
I think a thread in the X1 forum may be a better place...

I shall upload them tomorrow.
The biggest difficulty so far is that the today plugin aspect of panels dislikes QVGA...
well works come along way on the diamond interface, and the omnia interface which is wqva is coming along way too. So maybe we could get this going. Can someone post the cab or files and we'll see what we can do.
Updates
Hey folks,
was jus wondering if there was any updates on the panels.
Btw, Omnia or X1???
No updates as of yet.
The Omnia/X1 are completely different devices, with completely different aims. If you need a keyboard, get the X1, if you don't get the Omnia!

or HTC Touch Pro verus HTC Touc HD etc etc,.. get the Xperia cabs up allready, its the Xperia softs were after the phones are almost the same.. (read almost, and that dont include screensize, hardkeyboard, blinking leds, touching touchscreens, rubbery backcovers, flashing flashy flashlights.)
Panels for everyone! who dont want the fishpanel? i know i do..
Just use the VisualTask switcher. Link in my signature...
I think that, like most ppl, he is in on for the fishes... ;D
Is there a way to have 4 days forecast on the weather tab like on the HTC HD ? It would be great, current weather could be see through the windows and i don't like to use the left softkey
thanks
a picture to illustrate
I've the same problem
I guess we have to wait for an newer manila version...
Too lazy to press left softkey... Mankind is doomed.

Wouldn't it be as easy as grabbing the TF3D plug-in from the HTC HD and putting it on the Diamond ?
Sure. But without the HD ROM Dump - No Chance....
No, it's possible and we did it actually, but HD is widescreen, thus other-day forecasts are almost covered with tab-bar, so it needs modding anyway...
Would like this too, even the QVGA TF2D has it:

It's a shame this TF2D is only for QVGA device, it's quick, with all the tabs we need and must be lighter in memory than the 3D one...
I could imagine that HTC will add some of these features to a future rom update of the diamond and the pro...
If not, they suck
Hello,
My question is... can anyone port the camera from the Touch Pro 2 or Diamond 2, cause I saw in a video it his a nicer layout, and a on-screen button to take a picture... Looks better than the regular Fuze/Touch Pro camera on-screen buttons.
Easier said than done I'm afraid. They're utilizing the extra 160 pixels for that "Capture" button and the Rhodium also does not have a flash. This will be especially problematic for Touch Pro owners.
