just wondering if theres an iphone theme for the htc touch pro 2????
There is a commercial one available at http://www.iphonethemeforppc.com/index.php
I haven't tried it so use at own risk
Iphone Theme
I just purchased this one today and it didn't work very well. The icons were smaller than a chicklett and they were all bunched together. Also, there didn't seem to be any support after your make your purchase... save your money.

No offense, but I really don't see any reason to turn your phone into an iPhone if you didn't get an iPhone. Maybe I'm missing something here, I don't know.
The IphoneToday v1.1 app works great for me.
There is a Rhodium Theme section, why post in the ROM section?
Concerning your question, you could search the Blackstone theme section, since both devices are very similar.

Haha, nice one
The Touch Pro 2 does kinda resemble the iPhone though, with the chrome edges around it
None of that stuff from that site has any support, because they stole it all from XDA. The locker app is called S2U2. In this thread The today screen was probably iFonz. Link here. There are a bunch more iPhone-like applications here, all you have to do is search before buying.

i was just about to say that. to have an iphone just to have an iphone is pretty damn lame, but if you have one and genuinely understand phones and appreciate how good it really is, the more power to you. now, if you come to xda and ask this, that's just rock bottom

No offence, but if you think that putting an Iphone styled theme over a TP2 turns it into an Iphone, then yes, you missed quite a lot.
My 2-cents on this...
If you have an iPhone or use an iPhone theme, you're missing out on a lot of info on your homescreen.
You'll only have a bunch of shortcut icons. No preview of messages, no viewing upcoming appointments, etc.
It's like every time turn on your device, you're presented with the TF3D Start menu. Not sure why anyone would do this when TF3D and other more capable solutions are available.

That's a valid opinion, and as you use your phone that way, it's great you have the option of TF3D. The Iphone has advantages too, like if you want to open facebook/twitter/messaging, you turn the phone on, then click on facebook/twitter/messaging and you're done without having to open the start menu or slide to a different TF3D tab.
People use their phones differently so it's also great that they can set up their phone to suit themselves.
That's what's great about WinMo - people can do what they want with it, so if someone had an Iphone & loved the way it works, but not the lack of a keyboard & high-res screen, they can get a Pro2, enjoy the keyboard, high-res screen, and make it operate in a way that suits them.
If someone wants something on their phone, either help them achieve it, or leave them to it. Why criticise them because we don't want or understand what they want?
That's my view anyway!
Yeah, well said DavidMc0. I've just got the TP2 and want an auto lock solution. s2u2 looks like the one for me but I've concerns over the battery drain. It'll probably be the app for me but we'll see...

If you've ever had an Iphone which I have, you can appreciate the layout of the phone. The visual display and layout of the phone is great, bar but what I didn't like was the none keyboard and the AT&T cost, so if I come across a good iphone theme, I'd be happy to give it test drive

I agree!!! who would want an iphone interface on a WM phone
Iphone Theme
I know you might ask, why get a Touch Pro if you want an Iphone Theme. Well if you've had an iphone which I have you can really appreciate the flow of the phone. Everything is touch and setup in a manner that isn't clumped together. Windows Mobile just doesn't do it. Being able to touch things very easily is such a nice touch. I've already played around with some of the themes and some are nice but if someone would emuliate the iphone theme, I garantee it would be a hit. BTW, the only reason I got rid of the iphone is I wanted access to 3G which I didn't have on the TMobile network.
Just my thought...
There are tons of iphone applications that will work for the TP2, free ones... Search them. A couple examples:
iFonz
iPhoneToday
WAD2 (is a skinning program, you have to find the iphone theme for it. seen some beautiful looking ones)
ThrottleLauncher (another skinning program, might be an iPhone theme for it somewhere)
Just make sure you look to see that it supports WVGA resolution before trying any of them. IphoneToday is probably the best out right now in terms of functionality. Very light plugin, customizable, works like the iPhone, can be used with other today plugins, it's just awesome. Had it on my Titan and if it weren't for Manila being so dang sexy I'd have it on my Rhodium as well.

Still in the iPhone craze? Move ahead guys, even Vista Themes with Wisbar looks better!
I use this too... iphone vs wisbar and vista its a matter of preference really,
I agree this is the best skin so far, I wish it supported landscape tho, I'v got my theme down to a T with programs like slide to unlock, pocketcm, pocketkeyboard, ppod, genuine iphone dialler and touch nav, Im just waiting on the final version of Imedia to be produced to put the cherry on my iphone cake.
If someone can show me an easier and more efficient user interface that I can download as a single application then please do, until now - I'll stick with grumps's's's's - Cheers now!
don't forget the iphone like appointment that's being discussed right now...

When it comes to looks - there's no accounting for taste
Fantastic
After tinkering with a few of these aplications, this is by far the best.
Most stable, best interface, easiest to customize.
Windows Mobile 5 rocks. It is solid (for me at least) and offers so many useful items on the go, not forgetting easy to integrate when back in the office. The only downside is the gimicky today screen.
This option gives nice useful icons that are easy to distinguish and use.
My only hiccup so far is a link to the settings which for the life of me I cannot find. Please can anyone help? The config.txt's have it listed as \windows\settings.lnk but that does not exist in my phone (i-mate Jasjam).
Thanks in advance..
why didnt anyone mention that it will only work on a Hermes?
bit of an old thread, but ill add my two pence!
Im using wad, wa2 and weatherpanel. It cost 10 usd for the theme iteself, and another 10 for wad and wad each, but my god is it worth it. Amazingly customisable, very easy install and it just looks amazing, the dock works too, not like the program linked to in this thread where all icons are static. And you get all the pros of wad and wa2 aswell

i tried the iphone today i was so impressed with the keyboard input function.
specialy that when you release your finger the key input appears, and if you press the wrong key just move your finger to the next key and release. have tried to find a similar app for my WM6 based device but there is nothing like it out there!
can someone please make a keyboard input app like the iphone for the WM devices.
the iphone really sucks BUT there is one big thing i like with it is that the software is so easy to use and so dam logical, have to give creds to the software developers at mac....

theres also a pocketcm keyboard theme file, you gotta dig around the pocketcm fourms customizations to find it.

You can check Resco Keyboard 5.11 pro version. It has all the features with look and feel of iphone keyboard. Pretty finger friendly too.
I think some of the posts here are unfair.
Yes you can search but you're wasting your time. I've been looking for a better keyboard for wm for years.
PocketCMKeyboard has an old version which sort of works, sometimes a bit slow. It has some skins which are close to the iPhone style but again you'll need to search for them, find the right version, copy the right files to the right places, cross fingers and it will be okay. I used one for a while, some drawbacks but looked pretty good. Depending on the version of PocketCMKeyboard, it would bomb out with a time thing that meant you needed to download the new version straightaway. There's a new version but the skins are different and the old skins don't work with the new PocketCMKeyboard and you need to search for those as well. There isn't, I think, an iPhone skin for the new version.
The stock HTC keyboard qwerty thing is pretty good and is on a lot of the 6.1 roms. It works, looks pretty ugly but it works. There's a new 2.0 version you can search for and someone clever here is working on a qvga version. It looks a lot like the iPhone keyboard. You can serach for that as well, look out for version 2.0 rather than 1.5. It's not ready yet but we are hopeful.
Search on here sucks a lot of the time. If you think finding what you want is incredibly frustrating it's because it is. Shouting SEARCH all the time doesn't really help anyone, especially if they can't find something that matches their question.
Unfortunately, while I like my HTC Touch and enjoy tinkering with it, programming for it and trying out all sorts of registry hacks and tweaks to make it better, the market is going to run away with products like the iPhone which don't require all that extra work.
HTC + xdadevelopers + time = acceptable
Let's keep it polite.
I did one a while ago for PCM v14
You may want to try the link labeled iClone in my signature. I used much of the actual iPhone graphics and layout.

Hi,
FingerKeyboard2
PocketCM Keyboard
Haha, i personally think it is the hardware problem, the capacitive touchscreen will do all the trick that iphone will do. The software is partially at fault too as someone had said in this thread.
Is it possible that can make screen rotate with animation on Diamond, like Iphone & Omina? It looks so cool!!!
So coool... And totally useless... Come on, why do you want that? Is your social life so miserable that you need a phone with sexy animations to look like a nice person? That's pathetic!

I must say that if your going to choose a good looking phone like the diamond then whats wrong with having good looking animations. If your not bothered what your phone looks like then you dont really need the diamond.

One last warning before I close this thread: focus on the topic and restrain yourself from useless posting/fighting, arguing.
The iPhone kinda cheats to make those animations... it takes an instant screenshot and then animates that, it's not true ui animation.
There was a program that was called PocketSuspendFX that did that with WinMo during shutdown/startup and it worked pretty well.
WinMo 6.x is very able to do this but I'd want it "done right". It's a wonder why MS didn't implement this in the 6.1 update.

i agree -- it's kinda suggesting that Apple did it better (which is what some may think, but not i) -- i even went so far as to uncheck the "Programs" tab in TF3D because i found it to be cumbersome, and use QuickMenu almost exclusively (after having remapped hardware and soft keys)

Hi Chefs!!!
I'm not sure if this is possible but, I'd really like to see that happen.
Can you port/cook a ROM that is the same or close to the one in HTC Pure?
I'm mainly interested in the UI which is great imo.
Can we at least ahve the People Interface? It looks soo much better than the People Tab we currently have on our ROMs.
What do you say?
Thanks!!
i reckon thats the old manila. i could be wrong tho...
Yes this is the OLD manila interface! It is no longer used!

Just a quick search and found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=159225&d=1235156015
The old HTC HD (aka Blackstone) had this tab you are looking for.
It might look better but it is not as quick to use. Just like the old e-mail tab with the envelope. You had to always open every message as you only could only read a few lines due to the envelope being in the way. With the people tab, you need to "flip" through until you found the right person or slide down on the right. Not very functional compared to the new tab. HTC is realizing that people want less "eye candy" for the every day items, more "eye candy" for the static items like weather, music, pictures, etc. A business man does not want to find his contact, he would rather tap and go.
Seeing that this people tab is not from the HD2 but from the Diamond and older devices, I would have asked there first.

HTC is realizing that people want less "eye candy" for the every day items, more "eye candy" for the static items like weather, music, pictures, etc. A business man does not want to find his contact, he would rather tap and go.
Seeing that this people tab is not from the HD2 but from the Diamond and older devices, I would have asked there first.
