hello guys,
since the sad news of HTC, that there won't be a wm2005 for magician. Will someone please upload here the magneto splash screens and phone dialer please?
at least it'll look like it.
thanks
Splash screen
To download splash screens here is the site :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=114774
to download themes i have added some after downloading them test them i donnot have any screen fotos :? :? :? but they are nice themes so i hoop u like them !!!! thanks to BUZZ and XDAjojo and others who made this possible !!! and the dialer skin WAIT there wil be someone who can post it
thanks mate!
i'm downloading right now.
i guess i'll have to wait for the dialpad untill someone posts it...
thanks anyway
thx nice
There are some dialers available!
See below
But Someone is making a theme which should be more perfect than this one!
Still waiting on that!
Very very nice
Just to get this clear...
Do I simply back up my other GIFs and BMPs and overwrite them with these ones?
What about the .ini file?
Sorry, now I've read the ReadMe file
But I tried to copy out my old files and can only see the bmp files in Explorer on my PC. If I ask for the folder properties, the PC knows the gifs are in there but just won't show them. Any ideas?

That's no problem, yuou need photoshop or fireworks to view gif files. Maybe paint will view them also, i don't know
davehutch, yes in order to backup your existing dialler files you just need to copy the files in your PPC "windows" folder to a desktop folder. If you don't see all the files on desktop, go in Tools -> Folder Options and make sure that "Hide Protected Operating System Files" is not ticked.
I made a backup of the files and was able to restore backto default skin by just copying the files back.
Kept the intelidialler skin though ;-) I liked that, much neater than the default.
Hate to make a new topic, but google is not being nice about this.
I am looking for the Windows mobile 6.1 green wallpaper AND the turqoise like background that is in the default htc theme.
Actually, if anyone has that theme that would be great. I know one of the rom cookers had something like it, but it was not the exact same one that came with my cruise. (Different wallpaper and also the wallpaper for the messaging application had all these annoying lines in it..)
I guess I can just flash back and get it, but I've set up my polaris now and didnt watn to flash back just for taht, so hoping someone was smarter then i and saved the graphics already!
Thanks
I have it. But how do i rip the theme off my phone ? If you are willing to guide me then i don't mind uploading it.

look for the .tsk files in the windows directory.
Make sure you use totalcommander or resco file explorer and copy those files from windows directory. YOu can use the search tools within them as well.
Also, under options in resco, there might be some settings that hide system, hidden, or rom files. you'll want to uncheck those for now so you can see them.
Also in the windows folder there should be a welcomhead.96.png or welcomehead.96.jpg, that is the windows 6.boot up screen.
You shoudl be able to copy these via your polaris into a different folder then with your pc put them on your computer.
Thanks!!!
Here´s a link to various WM6.1 themes... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364541
....and I attach the nb for the standard flash screen.
Thanks to the great job from all the greater guys for the Blackstone dialer.
But I am thinking whether anyone has a way to change the current white-based dialer to a black-based colour scheme. Thanks.

yes unpack the folder of the dialer and go through and manually change each and every part of the dialer using your favourite image editor. Repackage it up and wait for the adulation of the masses, or more likely someone to start moaning at you because you haven't done it exactly as they want you to... ;p
you mean the folder on the ppc itself or the cab provider ? ...
i don't mind doing the photoshop work if i have the jpg/gif/etc ... but i still need someone to package it into a cab ... as i don't know how
I too would like to know if there's a simpler way to do this.
I'm happy to edit all the files myself in photoshop, but...
When I extract the cab file i recieve alot of files with numerical extensions.
Fine and dandy, i've gone through a few of them and changed the extensions so that they are jpg/png etc just so i can view what they are.
Can anyone with previous experience of editing cab files like this write a simple howto, i.e. how to know which files are which and what format they should be saved in jpg/png/bmp/ico etc.
i saw from the _setup.xml file that all the filename are mentioned inside but was wondering if the marker of this cab can release the original package before cab-ing so that I can photoshop all the image file individual before they cab it again ...

It sounds like you didn't use a decent program to extract the cabs...
Try http://www.codeppc.com/telechargements/msceinf/msceinf.htm instead
oh and if you want some background reading ....

Give it ago, I think the pink images need to stay pink though.
I can cab it up if you need to but there are some free cabmakers around..
They aren't hard to use, the main problem I've found is giving them enough permissions to overwrite files..
this one is supposed to be okay, but I haven't tried it.
http://www.aperitto.com/content/category/23/226/lang,en/ LOL, okay I have tried it now, it's working under WINE on my ubuntru machine
Wince cabmanager is pretty nice as well, but it costs $99, the demo does 15 cabs I think..

If you do not want to pay for a cab maker to rebuild a cab after you change an image, you can do this by following these steps :
Run MSCEInf. Open the Cab you want to modify (or the TSK which are also Cabs) with the first button.
Make sure that the 9th button is not with red cross. Else click on it. This make sure that extraction preserves Folders names.
Click on the 7th button to extract all files.
Select or create a folder for the extraction.
Extraction is done !
Modify the file you want in the folder or subfolder without changing its name.
Put at the root of the folder you selected or created the Microsoft program (free) CABWIZ. (Do a G....E search)
Open a Dos Windows in the folder (CMD...).
Msceinf has rebuilt the Inf File a the root of your folder so you can do in CMD mode : Cabwiz "name of the inf file".
And your new CAB is at the root of your folder.
Easy, but not really automatic, nevertheless cheaper than with WinCE...
It would be SO cool if someone made a black Blackstone dialer, especially for black Xperia X1s.
I REALLY like the "slide to answer or hangup" function of the blackstone dailer, rather than just the "push to answer" version on the stock Xperia ROM/firmware.

Nice one Benoit,
Nothing beats MSCEInf for extraction
That aperitto one looks pretty neat for all inclusive building including reg editing etc.. damn site better than wince cabmaker and is free (for non commercial), so far so good..
I have installed the blackstone dialler by itje its cool but i thought it was this big digit one from blackstone modded for the X1.
Ive tried to download the big digit one from Blackstone but get no dl link by email, I have big sausage fingers and keep making mistakes with the default size touch dialler on the X1 and need a bigger digit keyset to aim my stubby fingers at while making calls.
Is there a big digit dialler available yet for the X1?.
Edit,: Just found this, a nice touch on the dialler by itje is the bluetooth headset icon that when connected changes from the default bt icon to a headset !
good morning:
before you guys tell me to search, i have already did over and over again. all the threads i see was not entirely clear. some threads say soemthign about having a manila editor and i would need a hex editor and stuff. other people say i jsut use the change wallpaper setting in the settings tab ( i tried, it doesnt work). i also tried downloading a configurator ( dimaond) and it doesnt work. so i want to know, how exactly do you change a wallpaper for touchflo cooked roms? ( please, no vague , shortcut descriptions). i will very much appreciate it. thanks.
p.s. i mean to change only the home screen, not necessarily all tabs, but that can help to.
First we'd need to know what touchflo you're using, TF3D 1 or TF3D 2 "Landscape".
For the first, you need to edit a manila skin file, extract to a png with CFG Editor (search on XDA), edit it in photoshop, alter the manila skin file back with CFG Editor into the png you made, then hex-edit the file and paste it in your windows directory, together with another file that you'd need to download. Aka, it's a hassle. I can't tell you where to download all this, as I don't remember.
TF3D 2 its easier, just need to edit 4 skin files, without hex editing.
Are you sure you want to do this?
And how can I change the TouchFlo 3D 1 wallpaper in the cab version?

thanks for the reply. sorry i forgot to mention im using touchflo 2
but yes i would like to attempt it if you can give me directions on how to do it. i appreciate it a lot.
Edit the following files: (get them from your windows folder)
29cff4fe_manila
058acf31_manila
77feee1d_manila
70083a29_manila
Two of 'em are for portrait, two for landscape.
Use cfc gui to extract the pngs and recompile them when you're done.
Copy them to your \windows folder and you're all set.

Hi guys.i have made 2 splash screens which are ported from windows 7.but i added some notes with photoshop.2 sound files (xp startup and shutting down) are available in a zip file.hope to enjoy it
you can rename the picture name to welcomehead.png and put it in windows folder or you can install advanced configuration tool v3.3.use this app to change the the startup splashscreen,startup .WAV file and shutdown .WAV file (recommended)...
NOTE: Download "480.800 pictures.zip" if u wanna have the real 480.800 resolution...

And these are 2 wallpapers u can use as your wallpaper (included in the attachment of post1)
Where do you put the splash screens at....I am not sure where I would save them so that they show up when I launch
Actually these are pretty cool, thanks!
Think you could also work on black-themed Windows 7 splashes and wallpaper?
Much appreciated.
can someone make this into a cab please.
thanks
where r the files?
Nice work there, inspired me to change my wallpaper, so I came up with this:
drhadr.qsb.cz/stuff/black_win.jpg
drhadr.qsb.cz/stuff/black_win.png
drhadr.qsb.cz/stuff/black_win2.png
Turned out to be slim and elegant as a bg too
If anyone wants to add there any text/label, do it or tell me and I'll put it in there

after a while i found out how to replace it, let me know if u tried the same steps.
renamed the png file to welcomehead.192.png and made another copy of it and named it welcomehead.png
in resco i set some options to show hidden files, then i just moved both of them inside.
i think one of them was unnecessary but... it worked so.. lol
so i did a bit more research, u just need the welcomehead.png
the one with 192 is for a carrier splash.
if u want to use the jpg (i'm guessing it's faster?? i don't really notice much difference), u can put it in there aswell and go into registry.. i think HKLM/software/microsoft/splash and just change the value of the name
@rouzbehali
can plz upload the zip file again,its corrupted
and i noticed that the wallpapers are not 800*480
could u plz make a version with this size
thanx alot man
its very nice
zip files are fixed
sound files are uploaded again,thanks for your comments
ok.I will make more splash screens
OK windows mobile noob here with stock HD2...
How do I get rid of the stupid Tmobile "stick together" screen at startup and "Goodbye" at shut down? No one has explained that yet. I downloaded and installed the advanced configuration tool and every time I point it to the pics in the zip file on my sdcard and reboot...nothing changes...
I need step by step instructions here...

Is there any way to also get a shutdown screen? There is only a starting up file in the zip. Also, what's the best way to try to install the welcome/shutdown splash? Through the advanced config app or otherwise? And lastly, which splash screen does this replace, the orange windows mobile one, the T-Mobile one, or both? Any responses would be helpful.
the skin/theme you have is fantastic, with the clock and slide bar on the bottom. Could you please tell me where you got it or did you make it yourself?
