[WAD2] Windows7 Theme (Preview Release beta 0.2) - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

This is a preview of the WAD2 theme im working on called Windows7
-------------------------------------------------
Updated With beta files
PLEASE dont reply with this is incomplete or do this do that, the theme is not fully finished!
Enjoy it at your own will.
Common problems: Start menu items may need to be remapped (i made apps for my purpose, follow the procedure to make your own)
Lock device window shows for a few seconds when unlocking the device but dissappears after a few seconds.
This is not fully functioning nor is it usable for everyday use.
Copy Windows7 to Wisbar Directory and Windows_7 to root of 'Internal Storage'
-------------------------------------------------
My friend Bornotty has also been making a Windows 7 theme for QVGA, VGA and WQVGA
Head over to his thread at Lakeridge to see his preview.
please show him your support.
I wish him all the best!
-------------------------------------------------
The theme is going to function and look exactly like the Windows7 OS
VGA devices only​

Man thats freakin sweet!! Will it work for QVGA?

cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooollllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cant wait for it.........
i hope it comes out wid vga/qvga/wvga.........
i request development for all.

That looks awesome….. Good work….

This is great stuff. Keep up the great work!

Man...i know my post will be useless...but if you'll release also a sqvga version...
...i'll marry you!!
One of the best themes i've ever seen!!

Fantastic. Great job. Keep on.

really nice work! looks very clean
only problem with this is that WAD is a rather old software and (to me) can't compete with the new UIs anymore that are currently around (spb3, SHBT MyHome, titanium, Touchflo, Iphone clones ...) It is such a hassle to customize someone else his theme on your device even with the theme import function. And it is not freeware...
And this looks really nice but I don't think it is that user friendly.
But don't get me wrong, I like what you have done with it, it's just not for me
keep up the good work

Looks great!!!
Like the Aero/Glass Effect
Any way you can tell us the minimum requirements needed to run it???

Thank you for the replies every one, much appreciated.
Sorry i didnt specify the resolution, will update first post now.
To clerify, this is for VGA devices only, although i may get a WQVGA if a friend is willing to convert, but no promises.

Thank you for you reply, WAD2 is completly customizable to your need. ok its not like touch flo or titanium but those were done by proper developers such as HTC and microsoft. WAD2 is maybe alittle old yes but updates are being brought out to improve funcionality and update user needs

Minimum requirements upto now is just a VGA device with Wisbar Advance Desktop 2 installed which can be found from link

I know, I have used WAD for quite a while, because I could cover up the ugly windows shell. but now WAD does not compete anymore with the scrolling in windows 6.5, the look and feel of 6.5, and the panels being created by people here.
But as I said that is just my opinion, I am pretty sure a lot of people will be really happy and will have a lot of fun with your wad theme

I think they dun made the QVGA because at the first screenshot it has been stated compatible for VGA..but if there is someone who is willing to make the QVGA version it would be nice
Wisbar, and its various derivatives, is a great tool. People have done some wonderful things with it.
My issues are twofold; designs take up too much real estate, and it takes far too long and is much too painful to design anything of the quality I have seen.
I do wish the tool was more flexible and user friendly, and that it was much easier and quicker to develop great designs.

I want the QVGA version very much!!
Can anyone make a QVGA version for us( I think al lot of people would want that tooo)

yes I definitely agree with you that's why to motivate the creator we should make donation to them or at least give them feedback bout their themes if we can do that I believe they will create WAD themes sooner

Real WM7 Theme support QVGA, VGA n Square QVGA devices!!!

Hi friends I found this marvelous theme while surfing net this afternoon
For me this is the most same skin for WM7..
To run this theme I have found out, we just simply need to use phone alarm today plug in
Here is the link to the source creator:
http://www.pocketmax.net/smf/index.php?topic=6437.0
very nice, thanks...
OMFG, this looks as if it came directly from MS !! Just one unified professional and clean look, really really great. Unfortunately PhoneAlarm isn´t for free (but for 15€).
Maybe someone tries to port the skin to BatteryStatus+UltimateLaunch ? Or maybe TodayLife ?
regards,
Martin
phoneAlarm is well worth a few bucks, believe me. Take a look at some skins I did for this great software...

Project OSX aqua - spb mobile shell 2.1 [alpha v0.02][Last update: 8 sept 2008]

Hi all,
i've always been a big fan on the design of osx aqua,
therefor i decided to make a spb mobile shell theme with the same looks.
since this is the first skin i'm making for the spb mobile shell i've started on a
desing wich i found here.
"our theme - inspired by degavim & marfanuk" from that theme i'll start changing all the graphics and after that i'll try some adjusting in xml.
So far i've managed to do some testing on my Hareld wich looked great,
now i'm building all the psd files. When i'm done you will be able to download this theme here. I'll keep you informed on what i did and let you guys help me test it.
here is the first teaser :

WOW! Very nice. Definitely keep us posted.
I love OS Aqua and your skin.
Nice
Very cool, keep up the good work
will be waiting for this
ok i'm getting along pretty well, but as espected i stumbled accros a problem,
on the top right of the screen there will be the volume icon (speaker) like in
the theme i'm basing this one on. the problem i have is that the speaker on the
original theme is white, however i can't find the image for that icon in the .dat files
can anyone point them out or help me out where i can find them ?
thanks

Great Idea!
Can't wait to try it out. I love the osx aqua look myself.
great work go ahead
Wow,
That looks great!
Could I make one small request, and feel free to tell me to shove off?
Would it be possible for you to leave off the Apple logo for the Start Menu, I know it runs counter-intuitive to what you are doing, but hear me out.
Apple has great design, no doubt about it, I love them, I covet their products more than a MOC Boba Fett with the kid unfriendly missile launcher, but this is a Windows Mobile Device that this theme is going to be used on. Lets keep the Windows Flag, but maybe sexy it up a bit, hell for all I care make it anything you want just not an Apple. When I hand people my phone, it happens sometimes, I want them to know it is a Windows Mobile device and that the iPhone is not the only game in town. I don't hate the iPhone by the way, I just want Winmo to get the credit it is due. Now like I said you can tell me to blow smoke, it's your design, your hard work, and thank-you in advance for creating it. I love the bottom row icons btw.

Agrea that ppl should know a htc phone is more powerfull and less expensive and can do much more so i'm gonna do everyone a favour and make 2 zip files, one for the windows logo's and one with the apple logo's.
cheers and thanks on the comments, just got home and started working on it.
expect the first demo version soon.

Hi all,

to see it. thanks
edit: the new digital clock as in the psd teaser (first post) has been implemented. but to soon to release another alpha,
more to come later...
Mikomi its looking good. Im looking forward to trying this as Im getting bored of the diamond themes now.

This is the best UI,why it's not being pursued?

I know many of you use touchflo 3D,with some SPB Mobile Shell.
But I absolutely ditch touchflo 3D first,it's not customizable,that's why I hate it so much,I need a smart UI (user interface) to allow me do whatever I like,for example,remove any icons from the desktop,and add any icons,links,shortcuts,widgets in any place of desktop.
And I will make the background of the desktop clean,crystal,open,sunshine,broad,bright....
This is the ideal UI I am looking for,just like the Window XP or Vista.
Touchflo 3D (or newer version HTC Sense) failed to bring all these amazing things.
Currently I am using SPB Mobile Shell 3.5, it's one million better than touchflo 3D,but it takes me too much time to customize it, for example,you need to remove all unnecessary default shortcuts,widgets from the desktop...in addtion,there are some features I dont think it's practical for users.
One day I saw eXPerience UI devoloped by digitalEXIPIDETION, I think this is the real UI I have been looking for,it's exactly like window XP, but unfortunately digitalEXIPIDETION seems to be closed,I only can download eXPerience for QVGA,nowhere we can find VGA or WVGA.
After painstaking search,I dont think anyone devoloping new version of eXPerience.
Why it's not being pursued? chased?
Does anyone know something about it? I am ready to pay USD50 for eXPerience that are working in HTC Pro2 (WM6.5 rom).

I agree with you on that. i think it(sence 2.1-2.5) should have better custom setting so we can make our ppc's how we want.
Very nice. Hopefully the actual WVGA version will be out soon.

Anyone knows WisBar Advance Desktop is ok for Pro2???
I think THIS is what you are looking for my friend.
Notice it's changed and will require a newer device, such as the HD2 or better to run it. It is 3D graphics accelerated.
Have you checked Infinity out?
http://forum.ageye.de/
It's brand new and still in ALPHA but already it's very usuable and because people can easily write widgets and skins for it, it will be more customizable than Sense and SPB Mobile Shell.

It's a way to do anything in the UI. You make your own UI. Many examples exist and you can make your own, including meters, shortcuts, clocks, agenda, calendar, contacts, etc. etc.

[CONCEPT] ''Kinect Phone'' Complete overhaul

Hi,
I updated my xbox 360 dashboard a while ago, and I was completely blown away by the new 'kinect dashboard' graphic style. I decided, this is what I want my smartphone to look like. I'm sure most of you agree with me, stock android is ugly, sense is too fancy and glossy looking, and Windows Phone 7 looks awesome, but a bit too plain. So I think I've found a perfect inbetween, ''Kinect Phone''. (working title obviously) I tried to imitate the kinect graphic style a bit, without completely copying it, and tried to adapt it to look good on a smartphone. I've finnished a home screen mockup a while ago, and I'm currently working hard to theme the framework completely. I will only release this when it's completely finnished, and probably first on the HD2, since it's the only phone I own. I made some mockup images a while ago, please note the below screenshots are quite old, and the theme has progressed quite a bit, but I don't want to ruin the suprise . Here they are:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This graphic overhaul will hopefully feature:
- A completely skinned version of Android
- A completely skinned launcher
- Skinned applications
- Different themes (e.g. Watchmen, Red Dead Redemption (as shown in screenshots), Black Ops etc.)
- Animated Widgets (some help here?)
- Different hubs (stock ones will be: Home, Social, Media, Games, Office and Internet)
- Custom sound scheme
- A large collection of wallpapers and icons.
Things which are already done (as of 24/12/2010):
- Custom launcher with custom widgets
- Boot screen
- A couple of themed apps (settings, browser, messaging and gmail)
- Found a way to realize different themes
- A large psd document with a lot of graphics which will be used
Things I need help with:
- A windows mobile version
- Animated widgets (home++ seems to have this, but I'm not using home++ for a number of reasons)
- Changing the system font to Segoe WP
This overhaul takes elements from:
- Sense (The clock and some ideas)
- Windows Phone 7 (icons)
- Android (unavoidable I suppose)
- XBOX 360 Kinect dashboard
Themeing android is quite simple, as opposed to Windows Mobile. As I'd love to release a Windows Mobile version (Cookies Home Tab 2.0 has a lot of potential) does someone have some useful information about themeing it?
This thread's purpose is to get your opinions, and help of course

I'll make it possible, but I'll only release it when I'm 100% satisfied, no half-assing here

You could always install the Android SDK on your PC so you can run an emulator

No idea, and I didn't know you'd need a custom ROM or I wouldn't have suggested it. Will people need to use a specific build to use your theme then?
