Hi
My Vario has had the original Windows Mobile Today screen installed on it, but only the blue one which is a bit boring.
I can see the green version being displayed in Microsoft adverts for Windows Mobile devices, but I can't find it anywhere.
If anybody's got it, could you send it or upload it to the server?
Thanks!
You mean the green one on this page...?
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/themes.mspx
well, thats not really the one they are putting on adverts....
someone has to make it i think?
I can make it. Care to show me where is this advertisement?
I too am looking for this -- looks like we both have good taste!
You can see an example at www.windowsmobile.co.uk, but no offence it would be best to have the original version. Having a copy just doesn't feel authentic enough. Someone with these newer devices must have the appropriate .tsk file in their /windows folder? :shock:
PS: Here's an even closer look!:

Hmm. . the greenish colour is difficult to reproduce and the details of the sample is waaaay too small to make any sense out of them. Further, it is weird that all of the model shown on the screen are different from each other?
My own mock of it
....just make ur own? simply run photoshop's eyedrop over the green to get the correct shade...
then load a theme maker and change the hue and stuff
hanmin, your mock of it looks very nice! any possibility you could share it with us?

I think you did a good job - well done
This is great
But... oh no It doesn't work in landscape mode. The edge is cut off and there is only darkness :twisted: Any way to fix that do we think?
I hear there is a TSK almost identical to the WM5 marketing one, included in SPB Pocket Plus. Anyone happen to have a copy lying around who is able to upload the TSK file?

Attachment removed due to apparent corruption
Now that is interesting. It seems to be the exact wallpaper background that MS have used, only the one you attached has a blue version of the wallpaper
Microsoft's:
Notice when you install the SPB one how it has those little lines in the background. Now if only someone had the actual green version :shock:
I found this one on a website and edited somethings myself. It's nice and green but it does have a slightly different background. Rename the .doc to .tsk!
I created this green one from the original blue one. (3 included slightly diff shades - I think wm_green3 is the best)
Also enclosed is a hacked spb one that works now.
p.s. I don't just do black themes :wink: wm_black available if anybody wants.
pps if anybody wants the wm green one a bit darker or lighter just say and it will be done.
Lovely stuff!
As we are into green just found this theme and it rocks!! (qvga and vga landscape included)

Hey there, you know that mightn't be a bad idea, if you have the time and willpower?
Here's the current difference:
It seems the original one is a little darker/duller, and less bright. Reduce brightness and contrast perhaps?
Give it a shot - no problem :wink:

Kinda boring but it works for me
The first screen is for work, the second for play.
I usually switch both sims and desktops.

LOL,
how do you make this great screen ???
That is SUPER !!!
I was just looking at the screenshot - January 2006! Sheesh. I haven't programmed anything specific for VJSihaya since then - reason being, when I had the idea way back when, I knew what I wanted it to do, but knew what I had to go away and learn LOTS of new stuff.
I've been tinkering with different ideas, bits and bobs, so that I can eventually throw them together to make it as complete as I want it to be.
Like I've said elsewhere, stuff like VJVolubilis is just R&D, that I've released stand alone, but I like the idea of VJSihaya. However, HTC really need to get more VGA screens out. I'm thinking of going to TyTN, and at QVGA VJSihaya isn't as beautiful

I think that is WisBar Advance he is using. It is not free though.
Yep thats Wisbar Advance I'm using along with a windows vista theme. The picture dialer is the one ripped off from the Treo 700W and was designed for QVGA and square screens thats why it looks so small on the Universal's VGA screen but it still works great
A couple of questions:
Does it not totally destroy your eyes trying to read the text on true VGA mode?
I used WisBar Advance once when I had my alpine - it made it so there was no ring when an incoming call happened, are there any problems with using it on a phone now? If not, do you know why not? Is it the new device or a newer version of the WisBar software?
Thanks guys, I'm off to investigate Wizbar Advance!
Anjow - to answer your question.
Yes the text is small in VGA mode - in Word set your font size to 7 point font size (perhaps 6 - hard to tell) and you'll get an idea of how big the text is.
I find it perfectly readable and LOVE the extra space it gives me, browsing the internet actually becomes worthwhile as well!
VJBigPhone makes the phone work properly on VGA (Thanks again!!!) - my only problem is that Solitaire still thinks it's using 320x240 and is too small!!!
It depends upon personal preference and what you intend to use the device for.

Do you mean on my PC or my device? If on my device it seems I can't go lower than 8?
Thanks.
Sorry I meant on your PC
Hmm, perhaps tolerable then. I'm surprised because when I'm using pocket opera some of the text is really tiny already? Perhaps that's a feature of opera though.

What plugin are u using for the memory used and battery life status on your today screen?
That wud be a great help since, i am looking for a similar but light weight plugin. Pocket plus has it but i find it heavy and thus don't use it anymore.
I finally got tired of the ugly dialer skin that comes with t-mobile roms. I know there is a cingular one out there and I have found a few other sites with limited skins. Well I thought I would give it a try and make my own Photoshoping part came easy, but I don't really have a clue on creating .cab files at all.
I created a test run skin of the oh so fine, Scarlett Johansen. Please feel free to download and give feedback. I will be creating some more in the future.
Also, if anyone out there is a wiz on creating cab files, any help you could give...
And one last thing... anyone know where to find TRUE windows mobile 5 themes?!
Thanks,
Jess
Thanks - is it possible to give screen shots please. WM5 true themes are rare - i've not found a site that does them. Look in 'My today screen' thread in this forum - i've posted a few including one recent.
Use Ben Thon's themegen ce to create true wm5 themes and look at microsoft's guava bubbles.tsk to see how its done properly.
screen shot
I don't have anything installed on my wizard to take a screen shot, but I'll try to make a mock up on photoshop and post it.
unless anyone out there can suggest a good screen capture utility?
Thanks, and that's for the support!

As you are into photo manip, use Pocket Xnview, also has a screen capture facility. http://www.xnviewpocket.org/
Ok here is a screen shot
Keep in mind, this is only my first, I'll get more experiemental the more I mess around I want to create theme packages... today screens, dialer screens, and ring tone-sounds that are all the same theme.

A complete theme package
I have found how windows mobile 5 themes are created now after examining some files. therefore I think imma build a total theme package. today theme, dialer skin, and ringtones. If I'm feeling really adventurous, maybe media player skins as well??
so I was thinking a superman theme or starwars, etc.
Any ideas anyone?
I figured it as time I gave some back to the wizard community!
Thanks, Jess
man of steel! Cool!
that looks cool.
How about something for the girls? Johnny Depp, maybe?

Well put together jess - good job! (not sure my wife will like it though lol!)
btw how did you create the wooden dialer buttons? - i tried to for a wooden dialer i was putting together and just could not get them right. Yours look good might pinch them for my own! lol One comment though - i feel the talk button should be in green not red :wink:
Your cab seems well put together the only hint is to get rid of the initial destination dialog - see here on how to change xml file to do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=60772
Windows media player skins are easier than phone dialers see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=58398
look forward to more skins
Jess,
Looks good so far. I have poked around with some of the same stuff you are now. I did it all when I had WM2003SE because that is all that was out then. I found that the OS didn't always want to display the images correctly. and would bounce back to the system default for some of the buttons, mostly when you pushed them down and while you were in a call.
I hope for your sake you can over come the issues I fought then and begin making your own dialer skins.
You also may want to take a look at http://paulya.com/etenskins.htm He has created some skins for the Nice looking E-Ten dialer. It works seamlessly with my 8125 and I loooovvvveeee the way that the skins handle much better than the defaults. I'm pretty sure that the images work very simillarly. Give it a look.

Could you throw a leopard skin background on that, my wife would love that on her 8125. If you need a picture let me know, I have one in particular that she'd like.
Thanks and good work.
I would like to second the request for a leopard print one!!!
Leopard skin
A leopard print skin... sure thing! I am finishing finals so it will be a few days, but hopefully this next week or two I can get a website up for posting theme files.
Post an example jpg of a leopard print if you like.
BTW, still wondering if anyone out there is a savvy cab file creator, Im using a GUI right now that works ok, but for test purposes only and expires soon.
-Jess
hi jess
may i ask u 4 something
could u b so kind to explain how 2 do it ourselves
this way i can use private photoes and prepare some 4 my friends
thanks again
I'm in the process of creating a leopard skin total theme (dialer, smart dialer, today theme, ringtones) for those of you who asked. After that I am gonna have to build a more manly one lol. It will be available shortly ( like I said, finishing finals for summer term! )
Guys, gimme any ideas for a complete theme!
For those of you who enquired about how to do this yourself... keep in mind, im not using some little app that makes this simple, like a theme generator or anything. There are files and registry values associated with the dialer skin and the smart dialer. Just replacing these these will work, but it's difinately better to create a new directory with new files names and then reference them with new registry values. This way if you goof up or wanna change anything back, you can do so without a hard reset.
I started this lil project because I have searched and searched for true mobile 5 themes and dialer skins with little or no luck. I am very glad to see so many interested. I will certainly share the information to anyone that likes, I just wanna make sure you know what you are getting yourself into
hi jess
god my wife was going to kill me , "who is that girl and y z she opssing in ur phone?"
could u put something NEUTRAL as a backgroud ?
thanks dear
one thing more
could u explain how u did it ? so a retard like me can have his own
thanks again
Green WM theme?
Hi Jess.
My suggestion for another "complete" theme (Dialer skin, Today themes, etc etc) would of course be an all WM5 Greenish style theme.... I already have the "HTC_default" green today theme, but it seems kind of lame to have the blue background on everything else...
If my wish could be taken under consideration, I'd be a happier man. :lol:
I am working on a few at the moment...
One a leopard print style another windows vista style.
I am however having set backs, since I just installed vista RC1 and am working out some kinks.
Thanks for the input and patience, Jess

Sorry, but it isn't what it looks like!
The Flash Demo looks great with the Black WM, but in fact it looks just like every WM version. So no black. It's just fake!
It would be awesome if we could make our WM look that way!
hopefully we can change it to look like that soon, looks really nice
This can be done with SKTools
I have just started messing with this to get it to look like the LG images. With SKTools you can change the color of every item: window, background, text, etc. It will just take some time to get everything set right. I have attached a screen shot from my touch that shows the background color changed to grey from white. Once I get the black settings to work, I will post them. Or if someone can figure it out, PLEASE post the settings!!
Don't believe everything you see on a flash website. That's marketing at play!
well you are right about marketing, but, they lie to their own customers.
if you have some coding skills you can make almost everything in the flash to happen, but the impossible stuff - you can never get analizer in WMP, and you will defenately will not get black google page, also you will not get black windows live (maybe if you rewrite it), you must also rewrite a lot from the os to get genuine black looks
some black backgrounds work with SKTools but the icons look ugly
I am pissed at LG because they advertise this product to look like in it's page but in fact they deliver regular looking WM6 device which is not so much difrend then any popular WM6 device
Thanks for your answers!
Now I'm understand
It can be close...
Here are some screen shots of various windows screens and apps that have been changed to white on black. Not sure if I like it yet and obviously LG has done some things on their flash website that appear to not be on the actual phone. If people like this look I can post the SKTools settings.
One thing to remember is that in order to put your color changes back, you need to reload the correct / orriginal values into SKTools. You can't just uninstall SKTools. The settings will stay.
Link to the application. Not free but can be used in demo mode:
http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?sktools/m_feat.html
The colors are changed in the "TuneUp!" section, under the colors tab. Many color changes require a reset to apply.
Can you tell me what colors you modified?

There are a BUNCH of settings that you have to change. I still haven't got the pop up window / warning messages working right. I have attached a zip file with the screen shots of my settings as they are now. You should be able to get the idea of what changes what. For reference, keep in mind 255,255,255 is white and 0,0,0 is black.

Actually, with SK Tools if you want to revert back to the original color you just have to press the file box in the upper right hand corner & select (X).
I have already done this over in a thread titled "Black Background in Applications Folder". Here is the link
It is not only the applications folder, it is an entire device color change to a Black/Slate Gray Theme.
The sys file is to be used by UITweaker.
UITweaker>SysColorChanger>Tools>Import
Many people have been requesting this across the XDA-Dev board.

You can get color codes on this website HTML Color Codes.
Scratching head..
I'm confused guys.. what's all the fuss about? As I watch the flash demo for the KS20 on the LG site I don't actually see anything that isn't available on the phone out of the box.. with 2 mins of work, anyhow.
Both the KS20 and the KU990 (Viewty, I have one of those too ) use the nifty graphic UI you see in the demo. That being said, with the KS20 you can navigate the traditional way as well.. START | Programs | IE etc. so you can use whichever you prefer because ALL aspects of the device are accessible either way so.. maybe I'm missing the issue?
It does look very spiffy in black, I have to say.. WM6 utilizes themes and there are many already available, but of course you can always create one if you can't find one to suit your fancy.
As for black IE (and thus Windows Live, as it is currently only available through the browser if you want to use an official MS client to connect) it's a simple matter of a registry setting. Please tell me we haven't all been using alternate browsers for so long that we've forgotten that you can over-ride the default color settings in IE?
And last but not least.. the WMP issue.. haven't we ever heard of skins?
C'mon guys.. it's not so bad.. for Windows

According to this post you will need UI Tweaker.
After a strange sync session all my file in phone memory disappeared, including all my notes.
My system is fine, and the nothing was important on the note. However I do miss the included rainbow colored bubbles for my wallpaper. Call me old fashioned but I just like the ones included with the phone.
Anybody got back uped ones can e-mail me?

Hehe, yeah, dutch it is.
The problem is that the normal download uses a compression method to decrease the file size up to 90% (see cab size difference), which makes manila faster. Thing is, manila needs to be patched for it to work. Look up Chainfire's Compression for more information.

It should work with a branded ROM as well, unless completely new manila files have been added (which I think is unlikely).
I've just tried it on my Vodafone branded Pro2, and all works well except when you stop on any tab, the background goes black so you can't see anything much.
The transitions between tabs is so great - I hope this can be made to work fully. Great work, thanks!

Do I understand correctly that the background (as in the screenshots) only shows while scrolling, but not while actually inside a tab?
I'll relay this information to Rotastrain (the creator of the panoramic background mode9 file) so it can be looked into.

I have got a HTC one... so can't tell how it works on the branded one. I had to use the compability cab anyway.
on my Voda branded one the compatibility cab works fine apart from some of the fonts stay black. The calendar tab is particularly bad and a white font & lines would have been better.
Great theme tho!

Yeah, that's what I've been experiencing. It seems it's the same issue Stunno is having, as with a light background (which I believe it's supposed to be) the black fonts would be suitable.
Will be fantastic to have this to replace the Vodafone theme once it's fully functional, thanks again!
I should clarify my post as it was done in a rush this morning.
The theme is FULLY functional. The background scrolls beautifully from tab to tab (OK there is a slight glitch in that there is a thin black line down the settings tab about 3/4 of the way across and a light one half way across the calendar tab)
My problem is the font colour in some of the tabs. Which is more of a layout problem than a theme problem. In particular
The People tab perfect apart from the phone number is in black over a dark part og the background - but no biggy because who needs this anyway I've only included for completeness
The Calendar tab has black text and lines on a predominantly dark background
The Music tab ditto
the Internet tab ditto
Having said all of that, and I hope it didn't come across as whinging because it wasn't meant to, I am keeping it on as it is a HUGE improvement on the VF one!

Yes, CFC compressed files work better. The compatibility pack is not compressed, like TF3D is normally. So, for a performance increase, I recommend patching your manila, using CFC GUI 0.55.

Alright. I'm willing to improve based on feedback. I do however, need screenshots for clarification. The reason is that - although you did a very good attempt at clarifying - I can still interpret your problems in differing ways.
So, please post some screenshots and I'll look into it.
The vertical lines in the background are a TF3D problem, we can't get rid of it - yet. (TF3D doesn't like sticking pictures to eachother(
I've attached screenshots of what I'm experiencing.
Screenshot 1: What I have when TF3D first loads - perfect!
Screenshot 2: Once I touch the screen however, the background goes black
Screenshot 3: When choosing between tabs, the background goes to the photo again
Screenshot 4: Then when I stop on a tab, the background goes black again - very nice!
Thanks so much - this will be so good compared to the default Vodafone theme!

I've attached screenshots of what I'm experiencing.
Screenshot 1: What I have when TF3D first loads - perfect!
Screenshot 2: Once I touch the screen however, the background goes black
Screenshot 3: When choosing between tabs, the background goes to the photo again
Screenshot 4: Then when I stop on a tab, the background goes black again - very nice!
Thanks so much - this will be so good compared to the default Vodafone theme!

Alright, that is indeed what I understood to be the problem. Thanks for the example, it'll be forwarded to be fixed. I'll probably release a seperate Touch Pro 2 version to be sure.

I understand that it might seem intimidating if you're new to WM and HTC. I can also understand that you'd love to have all the best fixes and stuff. Do take into account though, that it takes some time and a lot of reading to really get a grasp of how everything works and is integrated.
Patching manila, however, is - luckily for you - made simple by Chainfire. Read his thread here.
Good luck!

Woohoo!! I did the did the CFC patch and reinstalled your CFC theme, you guys are awesome!
So the CFC patch is confirmed to work on the TP2 too
It definitely is overwhelming but with these beautiful apps made by you guys and good descriptions even a n00b like me can pull it off!! Cheers for that :beerchug:
Just one tiny remark; I noticed the stock icon is not embossed like the rest of the icons when selecting stock from TF3D, see pic. No biggy but I thought I'd mention it...
