{REQ/Q} Wait Cursor - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

ok im suprised know1 has asked or thought this but when i had my shadow i could get rid of the horrod wait cursor while your waiting for something to load! now is this possible for the diamond??

i will also like that i can change that, can we??

Yes you can. You can change the Wait Cursor by replacing the bitmaps in the shellres.192.dll or using MWCWaitCursor to replace the normal windows process generating the Cursor.
I'm working at the mom at my own Cursor. But you have to replace the ressources by youself, like in my icon thread.
fRED

I have a big problem with the new cursor I made. I can't integrate the new bmp's into the sys dll.
The Problem is that the original bmp's i've extracted are exactly 64x64 and 8,05 kb big.
Normaly my created bmps should have exactly the same size, but they haven't, so I can't sign the dll after intergration.
I've tried different color depths etc, but nothing. The original bmps seem to have 15bit. How can I save my bitmaps in 15bit ??
Can save them only in 16bit and then they have 12kb.
Can anybody help?
fRED

OK, solved my problem, but still can't sign the dll

are there any icons aout so that i can replace it if there is can you give ma a link

OK, it's done. Have figured it out.

Glad you like it. PLEASE PLEASE read the ReadMe File included. Extract all the files and read the read me file.
You should copy all the files excluding the readme file into the \windows directory of your device
Once again, MAKE SURE YOU READ THE READ ME FILE FIRST
cheers
Hi,
very nice !
But could you give the 'Talk' and 'End' buttom a shade of green and red, so that it's easier to answer and hang up a call ?
Torsten
Good work. I like it
Here is a screenshot
I also tried the Magneto skin, that unluckly has no indialer skin. So i mixed the great indialer of this skin, with the pads of magneto one (only in portrait mode).
This is the result
Well guys i've just updated the colours of the talk+end buttons as requested above. hope you like the change.
another thing, i've got screenshots attached but somehow they don't show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aladin, That's a very good work. I like it very much!
And, the picture files looks much smaller than the original picture files. This help to save some space on my O2 XDA II mini.
If possible, keep them as small as possible. Also, I notice because the picture files is smaller, it is help to launch phone quicker than before.
Thanks again man!
Best regards,
Arto
anyone tried it with German Version of intelli dail
very nice with the red and green add-on.
Thanks a lot !
Torsten
Hi Aladdin,
When I press the 1,2,3......*,# button, the button change to the original button. The shape and color is different from your dial-pad skin. Is there something missing?
Call History, Speed Dial, Talk and "<--" button is OK.
Best regards,
Arto.
The original "whenpressed" button cannot be changed
editing the pressed button
Thats not correct. You have to edit tapres.dll (you can find it in your windows-folder) with reshacker.
how the hell do u change the skin
i see all of you have bn chnaging the skin how the hell do u do it?
very nice skins
ne1?
no1 want to share their secrets on how to make their skin? common a lil help would be nice!
by all means mate you can go ahead and change your dial skin. just download the files i've attached, find the equivalent in your \Windows directory and change them in photoshop or any graphics program you like. it's really that simple you just need to spend a bit of time on it that's all oh, and a little bit of creativity would be a bonus
peace
(probably not with blair and bush still around)
nice skin .. aladdin1001 .. love it so much..
i downloaded since it first posted here .. hope you can work on another intellidialer skin or even intellipad skin..
great job m8 .. :wink:

Hi mate,
Please tell me, I've been looking for this and tried your suggestion without success.
Do you mean using "Reshacker" (a windows App) to edit the tapres.dll (the dll file in my o2 mini) ?
I tried, and it did not work. I tried moving / copying the tapres.dll file to my local harddisk (on PC via activesync), so i could attempt to edit it, and the system wouldnt allow me, saying something abt ROM files cannot be copied..
could you please elaborate on your method??
I've got some dialskins copied to my /Windows dir and the only issue now is as mentioned by bros above.. ie. when i press the numeric pads, the original blue keys still shows..
please enlighten me.
THANKS!!!!!

My attempts at some ActionScreen graphics

Version 2. I wanted to make it look a little less "busy" so I gave it more of a see-through effect and each button is very slightly different, fitting in with a complete screen image, if you see what I mean.
Also matched the ROM colour better.
B/W version added as an alternative
Unzip files and copy to /Windows using TotalCommander or something similar.
As usual, every button you press on your PDA is at your own risk ;-)
Hope you like them

Hey DaVince - where did you get those HTC Home icons from? They look great!
which launcher is that below the htc home plugin? I'm currently using claunch, but that one looks good.
Plugins shown in order:
1. HTC Home
2. Quick Launcher
3. Windows Mobile 6.1 Getting Started
4. Device Owner
It's the WM 6.1 ROM for the Touch Dual by tom_codon. Once officially released, I'm sure somebody will extract them and post it here.
Good Work....
Tks for sharing!!!
Thanks for sharing
U the man. I copied all AS files excepts for the AS_Bkgd_1.brn file and found a very nice result. Your new graphic on top of the old one. Very nice. Tried it.
Thanks again.
what am I doing wrong? I installed the app, copied files to windows and still showing the old skin.

I'll see if I have time
See first post for b/w version
also.. anyone have a better icon for Action Screen app?
The default is only that boring white square
To replace the icon
I think you have to use a Resource Editor.
Correct me if I'm wrong somebody?

I was wondering this exact thing the other day!
edit the .lnk file to have this:

Did u soft reset? Worked for me.

I have a question to the graphic designers who are "in the know"

im trying to come out with an iphone/cube with the new ultimate launcher that is similar to the release I was going to make on WAD... you can see a preview a few pages back on this thread if you want to see it... the only problem that im having is how to convert torx png icons to ico files... i converted them myself, but i cant get the background on them to stay transparent... if someone can help me out with this... itd be much appreciated... because i will be able to release this design to the public
please help
Which programs have you used?
I remember I once used Microangelo and it worked fine. It's not free, though, and I don't think you can do any batch converting if you have lots of files that needs to be converted.

yea, thats my problem... i dont think ill need a program like this after this project, so i dont want to have to buy a program... the one i used was "abc" i think it was "advanced batch converter"
but, yes that is crucial... id like to be able to do these all at once... instead of one at a time... i have several different icon packs... akumas icons and the torx icons... if anyone is willing to convert them for me... your efforts will be acknowledged when i release the ul skin...
if anyone can help, id appreciate it... thanks
Ok, then I don't think I can help you
Try "ICOFX" (Freeware) , i made my UL-Cube Icons with it. Converts everything to ico, also "all at once".

[APP] FEWidgets (Omnia like widgets, need it done VGA)

This is an app that puts widgets like the Omnia on the today screen. The only issue is that it doesn't support VGA yet (hence the reason for the post). I used SecondToday to get another today screen, loaded FEWidgets, and mapped the top volume key to go back and forth between TF3D and the today screen with FEWidgets. It worked liked a charm, with no lag or hesitation. The widgets worked fine by controlling comm devices like bluetooth and WIFI. The only thing you may have to change is the wallpaper in the programs folder in order to get VGA (480x640) wallpaper to cover the whole screen (once you get them in the folder there is actually a widget you can change them with). FEWidget does use the entire screen, so other today screen plugins can not be used. The only problem is the widgets are small (QVGA), and looking to you guys to find a solution. I haven't had a chance to look at the files, but I will to see if the widget icons can be manipulated. It is damn cool though. A simple button press takes you to another screen with widgets!!!!! The Diamond engine handles it so well, it should have been intergrated. Here is the link to the thread, and all credit goes to nicodega for an awsome app.

it seems to be fine and fast, remap the left soft key in TF3D et voila'.
many thanks to the developer.

not so smooth but it´s nice to play with!

frankly speaking, this application is nice to see but useless.

ok so I can not find this mod mentioned in the thread you posted, nor can I find it via search which more or less leaves me no chance as to ask you again in the wrong thread if you could point me to the mod or the file to get those icons changed.
Thank you in advance and sorry, I do know its the wrong thread. As it should be a simple question to answer though I would highly appreciate a hint

Just tried it out.. And it is really nice! However.. It is pretty laggy..
Have a look at this vid
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doOLS2oPTGY
How have they made it so fast and smooth? And there is more widgets there.. Maybe the got a newer version ?
Oh and maybe i have gotten this wrong, but as i have understood this, you guys have takin this today plugin out of the omnia right?

well thats str8 up on the omnia... we are dealing with porting it do a different resolution... i'm not too sure why else it may be lagging but i'm sure it will be smoothed out in the coming releases.
One thing i really like is the screen rotation of the omnia in that video... is that impossible to get for our diamonds?
thks but don't work on my diamond
Does anyone know how to assign specific buttons to toggle this in SecondToday? All I see is right and left softkey and neither of them seem to work anyway. Ideally I'd like the Home key to toggle between TF3D and FEWidgets.
Secondly, if I run the FEWidgets alone I can move them around etc. but if it's loaded through SecondToday I cannot, is there a way to fix this?

I"ve been getting quite a few pm's regarding this old project of mine, sadly i moved on from the htc blue angel a long time ago, and so i no longer support this project, sorry guys, please stop making request for wvga/wqvga/etc cabs it wont happen, besides editing cpr files is not rocket science, anyways i hope this clears out/stops the PM's i've been getting lately, regarding this project.

I like that the icons on your taskbar are all sized and spaced properly in the screenshot. I tried the 21198 build and the icons are unevenly spaced and the "X" was abnormally small. Looked pretty bad. I would definitely go back to a 6.5 sys if I could find one that looked as nice as your screenshot.
This was on a VGA device (Diamond).
Well i will try it... Jejeje
I will try it but I need to restore the icons from the last build from Xplode just resizing them again... and overwrite yours cause the xplodes are pettier... nice shot men!
so do you know how to get back the animations?

I'm sorry , i try to explain... I know that there are two files that are the responsable of the making visible of the exagons, the ones i called with the cpf extension (but they aren't cpf, i don't remember the extension).
Those files have to be put in the windows folder with the corrisponding png files... right?
I was looking for those files.
