I have only seen a screenshot of a theme with it apparently working from some russian website. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, I remember reading somewhere that it was only for use in MS 2.0.

The reason it hasn't been done and PS profile have, is that MS supports PS profiles plug-in natively, and AFAIK there isn't a plug-in available for BT/Wifi/Data. This obviously means that a work-around would have to be found, and I am not aware of any plans or work in the pipeline.

y1mrn
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] y1mrn:
AFAIK, this can only be done by installing SPB Weather and then enabling the SPB Weather plug-in within MS. Information on setting up your custom source within SPB Weather can be found here.

Ok thanks! I will try to contact iNiels and otherwise will start at it myself as soon as I have some spare time (wich is something unusual in my life;))

Can you please upload the CAB file for this.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheWizzard2203:
Well those plugins are supported in Mobile Shell 2.1 and Phone suite 1.3. Then on the today screen there's a profile icon and a bt/wifi switch icon. So i guess that those icons can be incoporated into the mobile shell home screen too (the profile icon already is).

Diamond Vista Gloss

Sorry guys, been busy lately. Here the skin for my NO TAB diamond vista. Based on greatbal diamond layout H. It has:

1 - Single analog or digital clock with calendar (when tap)

2 - Gloss status and menu

3 - Original weather

4 - 2 pages of 3x3 contacts

Have include a gloss tab layout for those who prefer tabs. Just copy over the include qa_layout.

also include are today .tsk and S2U2 wallpaper.

Special thanks to all who have make this skin possible .. :)

IMPORTANT: Found a bug . Background have blackstrip on top portion when go to program menus. Please update with latest file upload. Just rename it to qp_bkg_now.dat and copy over previous file. Sorry guys.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] y1mrn:
Unfortunately, I don't think it's as simple as you make out. If you go to Settings -> SPB Mobile Shell -> Advanced -> Now Screen, you will see a list of the plug-ins. The SPB Phone Suite plug-in in that list has '(profile)' after it, indicating that the plug-in is for profiles. Like I said, AFAIK SPB MS does not natively support a plug-in (PS or otherwise) for bt/wifi/data, and therefore any solution would have to involve a relatively comples work-around.

y1mrn
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hamkeng:
I agree. That's why I've made some new profiles in Spb Phone Suite "Wifi On", "Wifi Off", "Bluetooth On", Bluetooth Off etc.

Not a slick solusion, but it works.

Remember to leave everything else but the Wifi and Bluetooth unchanged in the profiles. This way I hardly need to go to my todayscreen any more.

I did this because I don't like the wireless manager on my Eten.

Now, what I need is some icons for Wifi and Bluetooth to match your other icons used for Spb Phone Suite.

Thank you for your work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spanglmd:
Is this not possible?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] toniolol:
Hi,

how do you leave unchanged for volume and sound ?

This is not in the choice.

Do you make this by the registry ?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gagaza:
AfAIK there isn't a layout with 4 contact pages. If your looking to have more contacts, you can use a layout that has 3 contact pages with 15 contacts on each page. This gives you 45 contacts instead of your current 17. There's a few of them out their. For starters, look on page 125 at Greatbals post. You can more easily change your background, than get someone to design a whole new layout.

Diamond PS default SPB Phone Suite icons

I have added default SPB Phone Suite icons fixed to display correctly in Diamond themes (in .cab and .zip format) to my optional alternatives post. They look nice on the profile select screen, but I am not sure they match the theme on the tabs themselves.

Installation instructions

Download the appropriate .cab file for required from Rapidshare or this post

Copy file to device

Run file on device

Soft Reset

.cabs to revert to the default from the optional alternatives can be found on Rapidshare or here.

Well just two more little things:

I have the SPB shell in spanish and just everything is translated automatically (only I have to translate some reg hacks for the 9th buttons), but the problem is that: Home, Calendar, Weather pages have the "title" translated and Programs and Contact-VIP... tabs are in english. Do anyone know why?

And the other one is: many times the spb shell goes back to the programs page as default. Can I change this behaviour to the home page?

y1mrn, I feel really dumb fo having to ask this. I only have one page of profiles showing. What setting do i use in SPB phone suite to get them all to show up?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] y1mrn:
Check in 'Settings -> System -> SPB Phone Suite -> Profiles -> Feature Options' to see if you have all the profiles. If not you can manually add and configure them from there.

y1mrn
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fdroms:
That did the trick, Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gagaza:
Thanks for quick reply, I checked those settings, I have all the profiles in feature options. All I see is menu. Options are reset profile or all profiles to default. I tried setting and resetting to default, but they still don't show all, just one page. Both on today screen and MS. They have never showed up for me. I actually thought that's how it was supposed to be, until I saw your screen shots. Also I should have thanked you first for all your hard work and all the help that you've provide to the members here. And thank you for these icons and help that your providing me.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] caballero600:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] y1mrn:
No problem. Sounds like a Phone Suite problem. If I were you I would uninstall PS, delete all files in PS installation folder, delete all registry settings for PS and then soft reset and reinstall. If that doesnt work... contact SPB, as I don't think it's a problem with the settings.

Edit: I guess the SPB Shell itself has only translated the words it recognises: Weather and Calendar.

"Programs - Main" and "Contacts-Vip" are modified by this diamond theme.

I supose. Can I fix it? Edit this text? In registry I can't find it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gagaza:
Thanks again, I'll try that. If it's the same afterwords, I won't bother with it. All the profiles that I use are represented on that one page anyways. I thought I was missing something obvious. You are very helpful and kind.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PocketPcUser05:
Hello!

All settings, are controlled via registry; however, they are also more easily available, just by going to the Edit Profile. Then, you can change all but the bluetooth, to unchanged. Then, when activating that profile, the only thing that is changed, is the bluetooth, or wifi/phone respectively.

Has Anyone tested the Power Consumption of this Theme? I am using SPB Mobile Shell, but over all other UIs (GoodWin, PointUI, etc) this one consumes a lot more juice that the latter, and I mean ALOT MORE.

I dunno if it's because of the colors or info it runs, but I was just curious if one has tested the consumption. If by tommorow I get no response, I will go ahead and test this myself.

I found that exact particular app just from reading through the development and hacking forum. I see noobs get paid out on here alot because they just jump straight into a thread and post or create a new thread without searching.

Automating things like sourcing information makes some of us lazy, unintentionally. All I'm saying is have a browse, read through it and you might come across some interesting stuff from time to time.

It makes it hard to maintain forums when people post and post and post and post. So we all need to be considerate both ways.

Hi.

I have a different problem...on SPB MS Weather seems to always show only one weather forecast which is LIGHT or HEAVY RAIN, even if it is very sunny today and no forecast of rain.

I have other Weather apps installed, the SBSH Pocket Weather and I checked it and it shows a SUN. I also checked the default HTC Home Weather tab and it shows a SUN too.

So I suspect that SPB MS Weather must be wrong and inacccurate.

Can anyone please help?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] guevr001:
someone please help

Maybe some one in the forum can help my out. I had an idea to keep clean version of htc home screen (like Death rom home screen) but give it a bit of a twist. You know make it look stock but not really. For example you wound still have the main icons ( clock, favorite contacts, weather, programs, music, and profiles) but add the feature to panel the time screen, favorites screen, programs screen left and right. here is what I was thinking

1. (the clock) panel left on time screen reveals a small callender (themed like spb2.1). panel right on time screen and it reveals a themed alarm clock feature.

2. (Favorites) activating the favorites icon reveals your favorites pictures. but instead of two rows it would be one row. Give it the same type of interface like an apple computer menu. The idea is to see three contacts but the one in the center zooms to the front. Then simply panel left and right till you locate the desired contact. Clicking the picture dials number and clicking and holding opens the contact.

3. (weather) reveals a short animation of current weather. Panel left and you get the default for weekly weather nothing fansy (or you could make them slide into the screen bump into each other and arrange them selves quickly.

4 (programs) activating programs icon slides icons into program screen but this can be customized by like the favorites option (show three icons the one in the middle zooms etc etc)

5. Music keep it default but add the option to choose your default player.

6 profile tab manipulated as a quick link to open command manager. Having the profile tab is pointless since you can change profiles from the top bar.

Anyone developers who are interested in starting something like this let me know. I dont know anything about codes but I cant do resource work like finding the right icons or color scemes.. anything that I can do pretty much. I cant post a thread for some reason. Can someone please help start a thread for me? Please send me a private messege if your serious

Well at least 1 positive side my theme is working in 240x320 (portrait) and 320x240 (landscape) now. Still busy replacing some items but it's almost ready. I'll keep you posted... Still gotta compile a new CAB soon.

(Can't wait for my HTC Raphael - T-Mobile MDA IV aka the qwerty keyboard version of the HTC Diamond - T-Mobile Compact IV). When I have it I'll start making a VGA version aswell which I don't expect to be very difficult. I can't test it at all since I don't have a VGA device right now.
