how can i make a gif animation of the cube ???

Hello ahmad.yousry. cheers for your work with this theme. I have a possibly stupid question. u know in your step to import the regisrty settings could u possibly be a bit more specifc - i.e. i dont know how to do that. im a newbie here and the touch dual is my 1st ppc.
i have copied the biotouch registry key to my memory card and the cab file.
i have PHM registy editor on my phone.
cheers for ur help
p.s. i have a 3 sided htc cube on my touch dual - does that mattter?

just open the registry file from your explorer
no problem about having a 3 sided cube, this is supposed to turn into a 4 sided 1

But this uses not the original Cube.
Therefor u end in a much worse usage.
U can also alter the original Cube by adding new page.
On my XDA Star already was a second Launcherpage.
It's only a copied and renbamed APLauncher.exe (CustAPLauncher.exe),
new registry path under Biotouch (also named CustAPLauncher.exe)
and new Images.
A Member at the german community ppc-welt.de even realised a 3rd Launcherpage that way.

Completely new at this have registered the bio-touch and installed your cab file but when I activate the cube I see your images for 1 second then the old image appear when I scroll left or right this also happens. Can you please help me?

Cube of Life depends on iCube. have you installed iCube before this?

Now that i have all installed, can anyone kind enough to post step by step explanory on how to add or change applications(inclusive of 3rd party installed software) in the cube?

@dlsw

wow! cant really understand it! I guess I will just have to do editing the original path to the path of the programs which I want. By the way, what is the fastest way of find the path of the programs in my phone

How 2 uninstall Cube of Life?
Please, give me some instruction for how can I uninstall this app? I tried WM uninstallation application and SK-tools -- the Cube and its icons are still there. What should I do step by step? Please help!

3-run the registry file and import the settings
4-install the cube by running the CAB file
when try to run the reg file i get the following message:
"There is no application associated with 'Biotouch' run the application first then open this file from within the application

Original SPB Shell theme for SamSung I780 + Realvga

Hi all,
Is there anyone who has the original theme of the SPB Mobile shell working on a Samsung i780 (320x320 resolution) in combination with realvga? So with the original icons and layout.
I use now the one that was mentioned in the old thread 'SPB Mobile Shell 2.1 + i780 + RealVGA' but I hate the icons and basically just want to use the original theme which doesn't work out of the box on 96 dpi...
I hope anyone can help me with this I would be extremly thankfull for that ;-)
Regards,
Nico...

Hi Nico, just saw this thread. My apologies for not responding earlier. In regards to your question, you will need to uninstall spb ms2.1 first. Using total commander or resco file explorer, make sure that everything in the spb mobile shell directory is wipe clean.
As per the original thread, follow the instructions closely to re-install spb ms 2.1 again.
You have to make sure that spb ms 2.1 is installed in 128dpi mode.
After installation, run it under spb ms 2.1 to test out the program. It should run smoothly.
Run RealVGA again and set to 96dpi.
Soft reset.
Unzip the attached file and place it in spb folder to replace the qa_layouts.dat
Finally run spb at 96 dpi. The screen should be aligned to 320x320 now and all icons should be stock.
Hope this helps and let me know if you faces any problems.

Hi g00ndu,
first of all you don't have to apology, I am already extremly thankfull that you are willing to put some time and effort in it to help me with this, that is much appreciated!
The dat file you provided does work indeed to get me the old icons back thanks for that. However, if it is possible, could you also make the dat file so that it also restores the pinned icons on the top? So the default SPB theme layout? That is the only thing I am missing now.
Also I have just another small question, when I read the original post in the past I had difficulties to get it to work (pressing the SPB shell link just didn't do anything) I noticed on other forums that more people had this issue. After a while I noticed that you mentioned version 2.1. I did manange to find an installation file of this version on the internet, however the reason that I had issues in the past was that when you download the cab file from the SPB website you get version 2.1.1 and that doesn't work with the work instruction you provided. I do not have a special need for this new version if it is too difficult but do you have any idea why it doesn't work with the 2.1.1 version and would it be possible to get this dat file you will create to work with that version as well?
Anyway thanks again already for your great help.
Kind Regards,
Nico...

Let's take this via Private Message. We do not want to clutter this forum. I will PM you now.

Apologies to the mod, but there is no other way which I can attach the file for Nico.
@Nico,
Please use the attached file and check if it works. You should have the 12 pinning icons with 6 program icons in your launcher.
If there is some messed up icons, I apologise as I did not have the means to debug. Possibly you can upload to imageshack and link it over here.
If it works fine, just pm me.

(I've encountered problems with it in the past). I'm running the stock rom with the old animated manila files over the top (could possibly be the cause of my problems but in a give and take between the two, i take animations). Thanks in advance

There's one cab within the archive file you downloaded, which will restore the font back to original. All the info are in the readme file .

Just remove the "\windows\welcomehead.192.png"

Just remove the file "\windows\welcomehead.192.png". Or, create your own Welcome file. Do a google for keyword "welcomehead.192.png" and you should be able to find link to readme on how to create this file.
From my vague knowledge on the ROM image, the original "welcomehead.192.png" shall get reinstate once you remove the money box one follow by a soft reset.

how to remove T-Mobile name. my network is not Tmobile

Where can i find the fonts used in this theme (manilla and windows fonts) ???

Convert any QVGA M2D theme to VGA -- Themes are here--

[/B]As M2D has now been successfuly ported on VGA devices, many VGA device users are willing to have VGA themes. We already have a huge collection of beautiful M2D themes for QVGA, but nothing for VGA.
Luckily I managed to convert these to VGA with few simle steps, which I want to share with the community as a little contribution from my side.
What you need to have:
1. M2D VGA pre-istalled in your device
2. QVGA theme "zip" file (Any M2D theme you want to convert in VGA)
3. Throttle Theme Rescale Tool (Attached)
(Please note that this useful tool is developed by APBilbo for throttle launcher & it works perfect for any theme as it accurately resizes the PNG files from QVGA to VGA. So all credit for this goes to him)
4. HTCHomesettings.xml for VGA (attached)
What you need to do :
1. Unzip the QVGA theme content in a new folder
2. Use theme rescaling tool on this new folder. This will resize all PNG file in this folder to fit your VGA screen.
3. Replace the HTCHome settings.xml file in the folder with the one attached.
4. Zip the folder & copy in your device
5. Add and install the theme with M2DC
------------You are done ! Enjoy the theme of your choice -----------------
Note : The 3rd attachment is a beautiful theme converted from QVGA to VGA which you can directly install & check before you start converting other themes. All credit for this theme goes to the designer of the original QVGA theme.

Hey whichever i tried, after installing i realize that it is for QVGA than I have to uninstall it.
Can you please also attach a working VGA M2D so that it will be easier for newbie.
Thanks,
Rajesh

nlohani you are the best!
I like the Manila2D UIR a lot. I use it now for 2 months and it's very good even aon a device with only 128MB RAM.
I'm going to check your posted method after I reflashed my device. Thanks for clarifying how to do it. I will post my Q here if I have any

Glad that you find it useful. M2D is definetly the coolest UI I have come across. Was missing it badly when I switched to DX900 from ZINC (QVGA to VGA device).
If you want (and if this is OK with the original designers), we can post our converted themes here in this thread to share with all.

Can you list down what all programs you have installed from M2D package?
Try installing programs like 'google maps', 'youtube' etc in storage card instead of main memory.
