Convert any QVGA M2D theme to VGA -- Themes are here-- - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

[/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.

I had installed on MS820 but it takes lots of ROM memory and i m left with 10Mb only. This starts freezing my phone. Is there any thing i need to take care, as i m installing in device memory.

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.

Doesn't include pics, but easier to install...
thanks for the tip ,the package looks pretty sweetmand very user friendly
but mind asking..are these skins signed? or are they ment for nocet ROM only?!
cheers
They were signed using multifilesigner1.0 with SDKSamplePrivDeveloper certificate.
They wouldn't work for me until I signed them.
I don't think BUZZ created these skins, I may be wrong, but the post I found them on has an older date than BUZZ's. here's the link:
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5519
According to this they were created by BIBI, JUNI, and CHEFZ.
At any rate, thanks to whomever created them.
I found some more skins here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=322329&highlight=keyboard+skins
He said he doesn't know who created them.

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

[Help] need help to create a Iconsoft Phonex Theme (now we have the theme builder!!)

I want to create an Iconsoft Phone Extension Theme, but i cant even open the default theme to reach the image to modify (IF theres some image)
can someone help me?
i attach the .isp file (the qvga skin)
The new theme builder is out!!!!
realise from iconsoft, from 4pda.ru
it can extract all the image from the theme file!
Hope now someone can make a theme!
Attached all the theme (in all the resolution) and the theme builder.
Any one has tryed? please!?
At least, tell me that is not possible...
Well i think .isp is their own file format for their own graphics. So unless iconsoft releases the packager to create those archives, we cant do anything about that. But i would really like to see other themes, especially cause they are promoting full skinnability as a main feature.
I ask the support of phonex.... waiting the answer...

I like themes look's like "Yota" or " Diamond-Black ( with green ) " for my X1, but i can not create Themes. I'm running Linux.
Sorry for my English.
You need the iconsoft theme builder. You can find it here:
--link to warez site removed--
First use the program to open the .isp theme and extract it somwhere. Then replace the image files in extracted folder with your new graphics. Then use the theme builder to build the isp file again for your resolution.

Moin.
Teile doch bitte dein Wissen.
Where is it ?
.ist vs .isp files
The phonEx themes are .isp files, but the theme builder can only read/compile .ist files - any idea of what to do? Some have posted that they have sucessfully edited these .isp files? How?
Cheers!
The phonex theme are .ist file.
meaby you have an older version of phonex. the editor work only with 1.3 and 1.4

Thanks for pointing this out. I do indeed have PhonEx 1.4, but I didn't realize that the newer versions are installing on My Device instead of My Storage, regardless of where you choose during installation. I was still looking in My Storage\Program Files\Iconsoft\Phonex\skins and seeing the old .isp files - got it working now!
Thanks!
From request of gfandrea on Cellularmagazine, I have translated the language.txt in the Italian language, enjoy!

My tests : Touch HD, Touch HD2, Diamond 2 and Diamond = work correctly
How it is going on with translating ?

Great theme, enjoyed playing with it thanks!, but not practical for everyday use so back to WM6.5 for me

{ request please } How to cook spb with my ROM ???

Hii
i have questions please hope i find my answer here i'm sure from that
1- how to make a custom ROM with spb theme
i mean how to cook the SPB theme with my ROM by SPB 3.5
2- i want to change the official theme of SPB to Hero Theme but how to make that when i'm the cookers here :S
3- how to make the spb theme after cooking is the first theme for the boot for my ROM
i mean delete all the themes and make the spb theme is the booter theme
hope anyone help me
and thanx again guys
and sorry for my English
HaKiM
​
SPB is a 3rd party app which you need to purchase. XDA does not allow warez in any shape or forum whether you are requesting or providing it.
Consider this 1st and last warning on this matter
EDIT
I notice you have edited first post and removed warez request & my comments
ok man i will buy it but how to cook it with my ROm after buying it man ??? please if you know can u make a reply by the way thanx so much
It's like cooking anything else in: install it, grab all the files and registry keys, then put them in an EXT. Try to get it to work straight out of \windows (possibly change registry key paths and shortcut paths); if that doesn't work, then you need to send the files to their own directory.
and if it has setup.dll in the cab you CAN compare the registry before and after installing the cab by sktarcker or ceregedit and export it in the App.reg
it's Not easy to do this , YOU SHOULD WORK ON IT !!!
and some times setup.dll removes and rename some files
BTW : Warez app , Requests , releases are Not Allowed in most Forums
cheers

If you just want to cook this in for personal use or even the trial that's fine. Nobody can impose restrictions on that.
The way I did it is I dumped the cab to an OEM using the CAB2OEM tool floating around XDA (search for it by name).
Add it the resulting OEM to your kitchen like you would any other regular OEM package.
If you'd like to also cook in all your customizations... export the SPB Mobile Shell 2 registry key that gets created after you install SPB.
Good luck...
p.s. I looked at the original post and you did ask where to get the "final SPB cracked" version. We don't allow that here (warez or warez requests) and please leave the moderator edits in place next time you edit your post. Thank you!
