Starting to experiment with my new S110, can not find in the FAQ how to change the HTC dialer SKIN.
Which files and in which folder to copy them? does exist a SKIN Choser?
Any URL for skin downloading?
Thanks in advance
Look at http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3066&highlight=phonepad

two aproaches to skin: gifs and tsk
in above links i´ve found:
-htc dialler skin can be changed by sustituting a collection of gif files in windows folder ¿can anyone give a list of those files for both portrait and landscape?
- by tsk files ¿How are they done?
best regards
I just copy the files directly to the \windows folder and usually the change is instantaneous.
I currently use this dialer skin and it works on landscape too

Err it works perfectly on my MDA compact ? Which is the same as your JAM. Only (slight) hitch was having to move the skin files into the main directory. Can give details if you are struggling.
<edit> Found you have to do a soft reset sometimes after you have changed the skin
when i open this app, appears only the original skin! where should i move the 7 included skins to be appeared on this app? thanks
I have found Dialpad Maker Deluxe v2.0 to make skin of phone pad. It is useful and easy to make skin.
Thanks!
dj_vts:
you must install skin chooser to default place on yout ppc... not on card or storage
I made silver phone skin for Universal.
The screenshot shows Japanese, but you will see English if you use English ROM.
Enjoy!!

Added Black one.
Again, the letters depends on your ROM or mui setting except for "Video".

You can the following phone skins:
Qtek 9000/i-Mate JasJar/Dopod 900: Qtek_Phone_Skin.cab

T-Mobile MDA Pro: T-Mobile_Phone_Skin.cab
Vodafone v1640: Vodafone_Phone_Skin.cab
Orange SPV M5000: Orange_Phone_Skin.cab
Again, the characters on buttons depand on your mui setting.
Enjoy!!

Uoloaded carrier's on this thread.
Very nice, but this has to be installed in the main memory to work, thus taking up our precious memory.
very nice , can you pm me how to make it :wink:
thanks
cktlcmd:
Yes, this cab file is too big just to change phone skin. It would be possible to use skin files in storage after changing registry.
I recommend cooking your own ROM with your own skin (or mine). (Of course, you cannot use carrier's in this case.
mwang:
There are many *.bmp files used for phone skin. I haven't perfectly found which bmp file is related to each button.
Only with this change, you cannot change "Video" button. The *.dll files (phcanlrc.dll & phcanprc.dll) have resources for "Video" button. You have to change it if you want to change "Video" button.
You will need to change resources of "phcanOverbmp.dll" if necessary.
As for registry, you will find many keys under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]

I have tryed to run one of the files on an Emulator and the Emulator HArd resetted itself. Have you got any idea ??? will that happen with the device also ? PLus does it really mean that you can get rid of the ugly t-mobile phone skin but keep the Video button ??
Churchill:
I've never run these skin files on emulator, but these worked fine on my Qtek-9000. I also can swich skins with these cab files. I have no idea why these skins shut off your emulator.
Regarding "Video" button, these are included in dll files in my cab file. You can modify or replace it to another one. It would be possible to use T-Mobile "Video" button only. (i.e. use Vodafone skin and replace dll to T-Mobile)
P.S. I don't think T-Mobile's is ugly but this is only a taste.
hard reset problem <Emulator
i guess OS on emulator didnt have 3G function.
so relative files of 3G function, such like follows confilict with its owns.
phcanprc.dll
phcanOverbmp.dll
phcanlrc.dll
phcanhtc.dll
phcanrc.dll
anyway, shugo's sikins are for the Phone with 3G,
should not use on Non-3G phone.
You might be right abou that Asukal
Thanx
Best phone skin so far??
I've seen this phone skin...I love it...
And I've used the search function on this site, but can only find it available for smaller screen HTC devices... ie; KJam :x It does not work on the Universal.
I'm no expert, but can someone explain to me how (in idiot's language please) I can recreate this skin for the Universal?
I can use Photoshop easy, so once I figure out how to extract the relevant gif files, I can alter the buttons quite easily....
If someone can explain it to me, I am willing to email / post the results back here...
Here's what the skin looks like...

"Wisbar Advance 2", you have to download from Wisbar website.
But you need to download the Theme from the web (done by somebody) it is call Pocket OsX.
http://members.chello.nl/ddelug/skin.htm
Be warn that Wisbar will slowdown the PPC a little bit.
I think the new dial pad from CrossBow Theme looks better.
how on earth do you change the keypad skin on a universal without going to registry all the time i thought its meant to chnage with the theme.
regards
I actually did registry edit almost manually.
First I copy the keypad related registry out into *.REG files. Keep this as a backup and make another copy to do a text edit and modified it manually. Basically the filenames are the same, I put the new skin in the extended rom, so I need only to change the texts "\Windows\" to "\ExtendedRom\Windows\". Afterwhich I copy the new *.REG back into the registry. Soft reset and NEW ＤＩＡＬＰＡＤ ＳＫＩＮ.

Hi all,
I want to switch from the original clock that are default in Today screen in Cruise to something that looks like the Diamond clock.
That is all I want to do, i don´t want to change the entire interface only the clock.
Is it possible and how do i do it ???
Thank you guys, you ROCK !!!
//Peter
Ps,
Why do i want to do it?.. Simply because I'm getting tired of seeing that same old clock, day in and day out.
the clock is made of images stored in windows directory or in htc home dir.
You can search for diamond style htc home packs, open the files and copy into your pda only the files corresponding to the digits.
Thank you for the quick response.
However, I'm kind of a noob and would very much like to get some solid advice on to what to copy and to where and what to delete and so on...
Othervise I will **** things up and be stranded with a screwed up home screen
Cheers,
//Peter
HTC Home Customizer
is the name of the game
http://www.pocketemu.com/download4.html
(for free)
then you need a diamond clock skin such as LPASO's (look for in this forum).
I did it myself - it works very nice.
cool, thx
I will try it out, this was exactly what I was hoping for
edit:
Sorry to bother you guys with this but i only find a cab for the entire diamond theme.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=404415&highlight=LPASO
Can anyone point me where to find only the diamond clock skin ?
again thank you,
//arcspin
Get it here:

and remember, you need HHC v1.0.
As much I like the software HHC it is huge just for me to switch the clock skin.
Is it possible to replace to original .png files for the standard clock to the .png files in the clock folder found in the "Diamond_HHC_Theme.zip" ?
That way I don't have to take up 4mb of memory just to switch clock skin.
First of all, is it this simple ?
Secondly, if it is that simple, what are the .png files named that are the standard clock skin and were do i find the on my TC?
Many Thanx,
//arcspin
If you find files need to change and give me place to change, I will make for you (cab) I create allready for dailer in diamond style only for original wm.6.0 rom you can check my 4shared.
this HTC Home Customizer not work for me
I am also looking how to my original HTC Home plugin make with more buttons still only 4, and look close to diamond
Still With Original Rom....
Once you have setup your clock & the rest (icons etc.) in HHC, you can get rid of the program and all its files (ie, uninstall & delete directories) and still keep the custom cofiguration of HTC HOME, which is saved as a set of files in \windows folder.
That way you can save that 4MB+ of memory, and still keep the diamond clock, but you cannot customize HTC home any longer.
YES!
Luckily and to save you doing a search (please search forums first it wil save you getting ripped) i have attached below.
Unzip them and copy to your HTC home file on your device. Copy and paste in the correct place and it will replace the files only to do with the clock and nothing else.
Please make sure you do a backup of the HTC folder on ur device before copying new ones, just incase you f#@k things up!!!
I always copy folders or files to a TEMP folder on my sd card, if you play alot and you make a mistake (and you will) then you have a life line!!
Also HHC customiser does not work with original HTC plugin, you have to unistal and use HHC one, which is kool, but may invalidate your warranty. For a noob i would just use the clock face files for now.
Have Fun!
Thanx Timmy and you all for this nice info.
Yes, of course one should do a search, my bad.
It was also my bad that I didn't quite understand if it was just to replace some .png files or if I had to do something else as well.
Now, that you have explained it to me it looks like a simple operation for sure.
Thank you and I will back up my files....god advice *smile*
cheers,

Jay,
If you want to customise HTC home fully, ie with 6 tabs and change the icons etc use HTC customiser, search for it here.
If full customisation is not important but want fully functional 6 tab, use the cab file attached which i got from a wm6.1 Rom on here.
Hope i understood you properly ;-)
I want start-settings-today-items- and push (htc home) and I lkie (options) button become active (and choose how many tabs i like)
this cab can help me ???
i use original rom with 4 buttons
Jay,
You cannot customise the default HTC home which comes on the Touch Cruise.
If you want options for how many tabs you want you will have to unistall HTC Home on settings/remove programs. then do soft reset.
You can then try HHC customiser (do a search for link) or try the cab file i posted. This will install a cooked version of HTC home which you can then choose number of tabs and the order.
The good news is , if you dont like any of the "cooked" versions you can do a hard reset and u then have original one back again.
What ever you do, do a full backup using sprite software that came with the phone before you do anything!
My friend can you post this sprite becouse I don't have? I saw on www.htc.com downloading for diamond but I can't take (other serial)
No can do bro, it came with the device on a cd. If you dont have the disk google it and purchase the lite edition, it does what u need and is pretty cheap 20$??
Its a good backup and has got me out the ****e when playing around.
This cab which you gave almost good but music tab start windows media player and not active buttons after in home plugin
maybe I have I never chek cd
