Operator

The operator icons can still be updated if people want this!!!

The 3 last icons I already included in my last Vista skin.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] flughirsch:
Yes, the 4 quicklaunch icons remove and the others spread around. I do not need them on the second tab, because they are also on the third tab.

Ok, I am still looking for a background where I say "wow, that´s it!". Your background is ok, but too bright. I am searching for something with dark blue and black. But the figure (design) must be discreet, you know. Maybe I found it one day or I have to learn more about Photoshop and create my own background.

Is there someone who gets a wireless and bluetooth manager on the now screen of MS (first tab)?

Gsmart Touch Style (Voice Mail Icon fixed)

EDIT: Voice Mail Icon fixed. See link... http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2190062&postcount=407

-----------------

Inspired by GSmart Touch Today Plugin: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=386133

I like how it looks but I prefer the functionalityof MS2.1, so I made my own MS2.1 Theme based on it's graphics.

This is my first attempt at this MS2.1 skinning thing. Thanks to all developers like Kulet, azzambm and Dredd, from whose works I learned a lot.

This is still under development, ONLY Portrait support. Landscape support will follow soon.

I'm posting this for feedbacks on bugs or suggestions for adjustments/modification.

Features:

1) It doesn't matter if your using a Classic or Professional Now Screen. Same layout designs for both.

2) To change from Analog to Digital Now Screen, just swipe the screen Left to Right or vise-versa, much like the GSmart Today Theme. No need to go to SPB MS Settings.

3) Contains 5 Tabs: Now Screen, Calendar, Launcher, MRU, and SpeedDial.

4) Support for Voice Mail (untested as i don't have a Voicemail Acct), and Connection Icon.

Screenshot:

AWESOME LOOK!!!!

GREAT WORK!!

Is there a way to offer a qa_layout only has the Now Screen, Calendar, Launcher?

I don't need the MRU or Contacts...

The other thing is, maybe you can just tell me what to take out of the qa_layouts... to accomplish this same thing.

THANKS!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] azzambm:
nice work...

keep it up...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jeffrey2000:
A wireless/bluetooth icon apparantly only works in classic NOW view (the same as one of those 4 quicklaunch icons)... What about this background?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greatbal:
Thanks for appreciating it. It's hard work: creating images, editing layouts and editing XML's, plus thousands of Soft Resets! (maybe I'm just exaggerating, just a couple dozens. hehe) Doing this makes me wonder if Kulet ever sleeps! Hehe :p

If you are into XML editing, you can edit Main.xml to exclude the tabs you don't need.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greatbal:
Hey thanks! I was using some of your works before I started skinning myself. So I added your name to my "gurus" list in my post. hehe ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] flughirsch:
Wow, great work!

But your battery indicator is working and not bugged as in gsmart, isn´t it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] flughirsch:
Jeffrey, thanks for your efforts, but I dont like these stripes on the right corner. Let the matter rest, it´s not your problem. I will find something special.

But thanks a lot for your work, it´s very nice!:)

Edit: Unbelievable, that some germans think, that dutchmen are bearish. ;-)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greatbal:
Yep, battery indicator is working. hehe :p

So is the Signal strength. GSmart's doesn't. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] paulsg63:
THANKS for the info....

I will give it a whirl tonight...

I'll let you know... and if you don't mind.. I'll post it.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greatbal:
No prob. You may also want to edit the postions of the Tab Icons if you exclude some tabs.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] blazingwolf:
GSmart's works fine now. Someone fixed it for the 1.3 release. :)

Hi slikkie,

Coludn`t get to the below, please advise where are the themes under pocketweather ?

Put Slick map in SBSH\pocketweather\themes
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] flashgordonv:
It actually goes in the "Skins" folder if you are using Pocket Weather V2.x
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] flashgordonv:
I've just figured this out by tracking through the other threads refereenced here. This skin is not designed to work under Mobile Shell. It seems to work with Ultimate Launcher and/ or Battery Status skins, but it is NOT (as far as I can tell and after some considerable playing) designed to work as the weather component of the Greatbal Diamond Theme for Mobile Shell. Damn shame really as I am an SPSH Pocketweather fan.....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lsherif:
Yes I am using the latest version, shall i put directly under Skins folder ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] flashgordonv:
Yup, just add the folder to the skins folder and you will be able to see it under layouts

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cascade2:
jopiej,

Thanks again for your great work! A couple questions:

- Any chance you'll incorporate the transparent version so theme colors will show through like the bigger screens have been able to do?

- Font 11 works best for the different top fonts. I tried 12 but it cuts off part of the '100%' symbol with a full battery.

- How do you remove plugins? I'd like to eliminate the "Operator" and "Profile" sections from the top but every time I delete that section I either get a black screen or one that looks perfect, but the touchscreen doesn't work. Do you know an easy way to get rid of those 2 plugins so it's just the time and battery across the top?

Everything else works great! I love the weather screen and will not use the MRU screen so this setup is almost perfect! Thanks again!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ahmedfikry:
Hi 420Mac

thanks for your help with background images

i actually had another idea, i tweaked the colored BG images, so you can use spb color themes to show in the squares (more color choices to users) & changed the rest to white

it works pretty good..actually it looks promising....

i also changed the font color in "layout" file to have the text in black in all menues

i am having problems with the graphics in the following:

- doing the same background idea in landscape (maybe if you compare qp_"working" and ql_"not working" _bkg_now files ..maybe you can figure it out

when i try to cut the black image from seperator2 file in ql_bkg-now.det (like i did in protrait qp_) it dosen't work..i may not be saving the file in proper format after editing

also i need color inversion (black vs white) in the files: qa_battery_small , qa_operator_small , qp_dclock_small ... so they all show in the top as its white on white now...only the text showing in black now

lastly, maybe the bottom bar can be tweaked too..if you noticed the original diamond white has opposite color icons too ... but if not im happy with black

notes to keep in mind:

my setup is cut short..i only use 3 tabs (launcher, main, contacts) with profile & weather in launcher page & calender from inside time page with alarms moved to bottom..(see my older post names "practical diamond theme)..so it will look different at 1st, but the main idea of converting to white is working my setup is xml file positiong only

also...for all other users...this is NOT WORKING yet i am seeking help from 420Mac, so please wait for final release

hope you can help me with the rest of work

good day

Let me know what you think. ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ahmedfikry:
Hi again 420Mac

you are the man....:)

i knew you could do it...i was just getting tired after long day to try further..

all your work before told me you can fix the rest

BUT...i still have small problem with the landscape...i saw you fixed the seperator2 file in ql_ with your white background..but the mask seperator2_m now does not match...

so i like the bottom bar you made but if you can have the graphics match the mask (make it plain) so the spb original colors show as user perefer from below like in the protrait now...please

please check the pictures below, protrait is good,,landscape needs "1" removed & "2" moved lower down in screen

One last thing...the bottom icons are now little hidden & pale in the bar...what about making them darker grey or coloring them?...they are in files: tabicons& tabicons_m inside qp_bkg_now & ql_bkg_now....

Thanks for all the efforts

i will post the whole white diamond theme here soon once i get the landscape (ql_bkg_now.dat) from you again

have a great day

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 420Mac:
No it's not possible to use animated wallpapers in Mobile Shell, it's limited to .bmp files sadly, maybe in future releases they may incorporate the use of animated files, and then we would be able to use animated weather icons as well.
