4 Rows in 6.5 start menu - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps

I have just installed the official 6.5 WWE upgrade. I want to change the honeycomb start menu to show 4 or 5 rows instead of 3. I have installed a couple of options from searching here but they do not not seem to work. Can anybody help?

yeah i too would also like to know this, having 4 icons per row looks much better in my opinion, and doesn't take as long to scroll to the bottom!

Same here, anyone??

Here! These are all some I have collected over here in this forum. Enjoy.
LCW is 5 columns in a row.

Any way we can get links to the threads to see previews on what these will look like??

just tried them out:
Ark_Hexagon 4 row.cab - gave a honeycomb style (with honeycomb outline)
WM6.5 Start Menu 4 7.cab - didn't work for me (however didn't soft reset so thats probably why lol)
BharS StartMenu Grid WVGA.cab - Is exactly what we were looking for, 4 icon wide start menu!
Thanks ai6908!

You have to SR after install in order for it to work.
Ark and LCW are honeycomb versions. Others do not have honeycomb in them.
Sorry no patience for screenshots yet...maybe when i get more time...

Thanks!.. how about the Sense UI's "Programs"? Does it have working 4 columns cabs for it?

Thanks I was also looking for this. Are there any way of decreasing / increasing the size of the start menu icons?

Yup it can be done. Edit the cpr files in the cab with notepad.

Doesn't works well, a bit out of line, i don't hink this is for WVGA.

ISO-8859-1__Showaco All_Programsv4.1_4ICON.cab
does not work for me with WM 6.5 Sense 2.1, icons and letters are cut.
Is there another tool/cab?

Is it possible to remove the Start Menu Wall paper totally, I like to have a plain black background. I have been searching and googling for it, but it seems that so far none has posted anything on it. Not for the TF3D2, but just only the Start Menu background.
Can it be done?

UPDATED:Custom Manila Theme

I've been searching for awhile for the registry entry that controls the color of the selection highlight when you scroll thru different selections. An example would be when you scroll you start menu or contact and such.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
EDIT: Here is a link to most (all) of the registry entries for theme colors
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WindowsMobile5Colors
Scroll down for Custom Manila cab file
I did this a long time ago with SKTools, but im sorry because dont know the registry key for this.
Thanks for the reply. I've since then managed to find it and was actually looking at the right key all along but for some odd reason my phone would not respond to that particular key change. Finally I decided to cab up the theme and install it with my registry edits and it worked great Now I have a Manila theme without the ugly green highlight. It's grey instead
Bump due to updated info...

You can get those from the HTC Home Customizer app but I will zip them up for you and attach them to this post.

lllboredlll: may i ask what font you are using, and more importantly, how you were able to make the start menu font non-bold?

I'm pretty sure you download it within HHC. That's how I get it now even though I have the file on my PC. Are you running HHCv10final?

I extracted an OEM from PPCGeeks OEM package and tweaked it. The font setup is the same as it was in the manila theme pack but I changed the color.
Other than that, here's a link to the thread that explains some font changes.

Not sure what I have. I'm almost positive it's final though since it's in the PPCGeeks kitchen. But thanks for posting it! It wasn't there.

That one is the final version. If you goto the download tab, click connect to download server. Once connected select Icons from the drop down menu then scroll down. It's right under all of the baseball sets.

that is the message he wrote in the topic.
so that means he has a 6.5 beta rom with the honeycomb
he also says he doesnt like wm6.1 AND 6.5 style menu so he made a new one that doesnt look like a honeycomb and doesnt look like the old 6.1 style
Vertical List Menu with Blue select
I got sick of honeycomb and found this thread. I wanted my menu to match NRG's latest rom better so I whipped this up.
Unzip files to \windows\
Could you make the same Start Menu for Landscape?
so many things to do at work, that i forgot this...sorry guys.
this is very easy to make, and the landscape, its possible too.
this week im gona finish this, make the selected and the pressed icon, and the landscape.
is there any way to get like the startmenu to have the icons in a straight row insted, like the program tab in touchflow? that would be cool! since i never use the program tab and i dont rly like the honeycomd, how they put the icons! would be better with straight rows insted. would it be possible?
is it good for wm6.1 Diamond???

This post is for all of those out there who don't know how or are too lazy to move the files provided in this thread to their windows folder!
I have attached 5 .cabs below, none of which have i claimed rights or any ownership. These are made/owned by JMRRJMRR and mslug, all i have done is put the files into .cabs for us lazy-asses...
The cabs are as follows:
-"JMRRJMRR - WIP Honeycomb mod.cab" is JMRRJMRR's original posted files put into .cab
-"JMRRJMRR no icons.cab" is JMRRJMRR's original files minus the altered icons
-"JMRRJMRR pack with mslug blue bar.cab" is JMRRJMRR's files but with mslug's blue bar added
-"mslug - Blue List Start Menu.cab" is mslug's original posted files put into a .cab
-"Unforseen Honey.cab" is my own mix of clear bars and landscape support added
AGAIN use at your own risk and none of the files are mine! give your thanks/props/whatever you call it to the original owners (JMRRJMRR & mslug)
thank you, exelente work.

[THE] TP2 TF3D Neon Tabs - v1.2a [10-06-2009] - Coming back - Soon

TF3D Neon Tabs Theme
Still development in progress but so far I have managed to get the actual TF3D tabs to be in a type of "Neon" scheme.
I will be working heavily on this trying to go through all icons in TF3D making them Neon so there will be many updates to follow making this simply perfect.
Feedback more than welcome and opinions probably will be worked in.
Please note, people have confirmed this works on....
-- Touch Pro 2
-- Touch Diamond 2
-- Touch HD
If you do try this on any other phone, please let me know the outcome, I should be able to adapt the files to work on any phone in theory
The Cab file is fully un-installable so if you don't like them, just remove the program in Remove Programs and you're back to normal.
Screen Shots
Updates
Version 1.2a - 10-06-2009
- Changed some colours around to make it view better
- Added different options for different people, plain, transparent curtain, transparent slider, transparent curtain & slider (can't please everyone)
Version 1.2 - 10-06-2009
- Created the 4 icons in the people secions
All People - Favourites - Updates - Call History
- Also added Transparent bottom curtains and transparent slider so no need for extra installations.
Version 1.1 - 09-06-2009
- Created tab icons when icon is not selected
Version 1.0 - 09-06-2009
- Created Tabs for following Tabs when selected...
Home - People - Messages - Email - Calendar - Internet - Stock - Camera - Music - Weather - Programs - Settings
Nice work. Thanks.
Just updated with Version 1.1 which has all tabs coloured now even when not selected

There is no need to extract the file, it's a cab anyway.
Just copy the file to your phone and open it -it installs itself.

I'm going to be working on the lot in 'All People' tonight, so hopefully should have an update later.
Also going to be working on the actual button on the base, any ideas from anyone how you'd want it to look?

The slide part, the button that you hold to move and slide, the "block". Can't think what its called but its the rectangle block that you slide from left to right.
Ahh ok, you mean the slider .
I'm already using Lucarp's transparent slider.
I've attached it, so you can have a look for yourself what it does.

Here's a screenshot of the slider if you don't want to install it

Looks good, I want it to be a bit narrower though I think, not 100% sure yet, haven't made my mind up. Think I'll have a play around and might incorporate it in my icon set.
Update
Updated icons to include people section and also added transparent slider and transparent bottom curtains in so no need for extra installs.
Nice Icon's
Very nice work!...Would love to use these with my Touch HD!!

I can do them for the Touch HD too if needed. I just need the manila files uploading somewhere if someones prepared to do it?
Have you tried it on the HD? It might just work...?
I will try them out tomorrow and give you an update! Again, they look great! Cheers to your fine work!
Hi there, just want to say it works on my Touch HD Unfortunately I am using a chinese rom (Devilstone v3.7 with TouchFLO 34 2.1.38158.2), so I am not too sure if it will work with other cooked romr, just give it a try I guess~
Here are the screenshots:
This is just the theme itself (with Lucarp78TS.cab)
And this is the transparent both cab (I uninstall Lucarp78TS.cab)
Looks awesome on my TP2. Thanks dude, good job.

How can I change from rows of 4 to 3.....

icons when I am viewing my icons in programs on the HTC DIAMOND. I'm using the EnergyROM DIAMOND 20090714 Standard rom? The icons are kinda small as is the writing, but other than that seems pretty nice.
I've tried changing setting in the tweaks, but no joy!
cheers
Here it goes, I found it on PPCGeeks a while back bu forgot which post it originally came from, but here it is!
3 to 4 instead?
Ahem....
I have the opposite problem...
Just came from Energy Rom and actually liked the 4 per raw layout, but I have absolutely no idea how to restore it..
any hint please?
Get the application "Diamond Tweak":
http://www.montecristoff.com/diamondtweak.htm
There is an option in that program to change this!

It doesn't matter... at the end of the day it's still working
we are getting confused
I think we are getting confused between the Touch Flow programs panel (3 icons wide) and the Start menu / Programs window1 it is the Touch Flow programs window that I would like 4 wide.
3 Columns
That works http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=535725

[Q] Start Menu swiping style

Hi all,
I was wondering is there an app or something that can change the swiping style of Mini's start menu..??
From Up/Down to Left/right like that in iphone ??
Thankz.
Try to read HD mini threads
You could easily find CHT HVGA mod
You could store tons of shortcuts with it, swiping up/down, left/right.

Yup...If u know an app plz do tell me..
If I understand you correct, SPB Mobile Shell should give you that functionality?
But Spb shell also changes the homescreen..and it also creates its own version of start menu..i just want to change the swiping style of default start menu..not the looks or theme...
