How to trouble shoot after the sucess of install????

Hello

You are awesome man!!!

I just hard reset my phone to prep it for installing the theme. I installed everything including the theme from the original post. I own a Touch and followed the directions but many features aren't working properly. Extremely new to this so bear with me:

I have practically studied this post but now that I've gone through with the steps and seen the trip ups mentioned in the post I'm a little confused. I've never tweaked the registry-don't even know how its achieved- and I've seen a great deal of this while reading the post. I wonder if that resolves most issues I'm experiencing?

Firstly should this skin be separate from the SPB program? I thought it would skin the SPB program somehow. At the moment this program has only replaced the htc home page and the SPB shell is the ordinary default.

Music-The three default album covers appear. And while the music plays fine (the name of the song appears) the Nirvana cover remains.

Home- Resets the background on soft reset. It's stuck in military time.

I read about something called Total Commander in another post but I have no idea what the poster is referring to. lol

Programs- Of the nine tiles, the calculator and note pad work. The last tile sends me to my programs but it seems to bypass a page that briefly flashes other tiles.

Weather- The screen says "Weather" and in the upper top right corner it says "Last Updated Time" and to the far left it says tomorrow "H" with and "L" under it. No weather icons. When I refresh it it flashes as if updating there's no outcome.

People- The up and down arrow don't take me to different people and there are just colorful default pictures along the right side of the screen. When I press the center picture it takes me to "Add contact name/ number input page.

Any help or direction to posts that probably cover these issues a thousand time over (lol) would be greatly appreciated!
[Windows Mobile Themes] vvizard:
thanks

I use unpacked rar and it works :)

almost perfect

on screen with the clock I've text: (null) missed calls

player: works super

weather: cloud[this can be right] rest of it (null) (null).....

Communitions: doesn't work

People ok

programs: i need to change some lnk to work with my programs

messages: ok

settings: ok

in free time I've to delete tray installed with rom

PS: I think that my problems with installing CABs was related with my SD Card. I use A-Data 8GB SD
[Windows Mobile Themes] hankster:
Did u install Mortscript?
[Windows Mobile Themes] hankster:
Why not just use schap's advance config? Same thing quicker.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Gentox:
Great to hear you got it working.

To get rid of the null in missed calls just hit it to open the missed called window then close it and the null should be changed in 0.

To get rid of the null's in the weather tab you have to insert your weather location, to do this hit the refresh button and a popup will ask for your location.

Could you tell me what doesn't work in Communitions maybe i can help to get it working.

Greetings Gentox
[Windows Mobile Themes] Elim:
Perphaps I have overseen something?

This tool can't remove the traybar but the buttombar (normally "Calendar Contacts"). That is not the same.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Elim:
a) A long press carry you to a config page, where you can change the link.

b) Another way is to put links in the directory "...\XIAMultiTheme\themes\Manila-Black\programs\link" and rename accordingly. Here you can also change the pictures (in "...\XIAMultiTheme\themes\Manila-Black\programs\icons").
[Windows Mobile Themes] Elim:
First: Which SPB program? Phone suite is only used to change to loudnes of your phone.

Second: It is a theme for the tool "XIAMultiTheme".

Until know there is no solution for it.

See my answer to vvizard :-)

See last post from Gentox.

What is the problem? Add your contact informations and use it in the future.

The pictures are in the directory "...\XIAMultiTheme\themes\Manila-Black\contactpic". So you can change them... :-)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Willsunflower:
Hi again:)

By Spb I meant the shell.(I don't have the spb phone suite.) Actually I thought this program would skin the Spb shell. At the moment only my htc page is influenced by the install. I did a hard reset of my phone before applying the skin so, at the moment my SPB shell is just the ordinary shell.

The tool you refer to is what makes it possible to view albums and contacts without opening other programs, right? I guess your saying it has nothing to so with and won't have any effect on the

spb shell?

People-Yesterday I was fiddling with this after stumbling onto a post that described my issue. I found the directory on my phone. My problem was where to go from there once I found the directory. Is it just a matter of placing my contact pics (from my pictures folder) in this folder along with the colorful default pics?

P.S. There's a popular manila shell the appears to give you various options to skin the SPB shell. Examples of these options are carousel A, carousel b and so on. Each basically varies by what tab directs you to what or how many contact pages are available to you and also what clock appears. It all depends on your preference on what you'd like to see tweaked I guess.

My question is: is it safe to use the XIAMultiTheme and this theme simultaneously?

Do I need a registy editor to remedy the glitches? I've read post that mention a program called total comander.

Any more help you could give would be super appreciated!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Elim:
Hi.

Yes, it has nothing to do with this shell.

No, you must replace the pictures in the folder with yours (delete them, copy and rename your pictures ).

Why not? But normally both are plugins of the today-screen and both use and need here the complete screen.

I add some entries with a reg-editor. So for me is also not clear if you really need it. Total commander has a build-in reg-editor but you can use every other...

... I like this theme/today screen but you need time and work before you can use it :-(
[Windows Mobile Themes] vvizard:
hankster yes I've installed Mortscript.

gentox thanks for your help :)

Weather "channel" works 50/50 now I've on the right some part of the cloud rest is on the left side of the screen

But I think I'll deactivate this tab I don't want to pay fortune (for gprs transmision) to my mobile provider ;)

Communitions: bluetoth has started to work after several soft-resets. Wi-Fi and Phone I hear the sound but picture is still showing "off"

it would be great if you add airplane mode and 3g (like in comm manager)

Elim thanks, now I've most useful programs in one place :)

thank you all :)))
[Windows Mobile Themes] Willsunflower:
LOL I hear you. I'm feeling around in the dark at the moment. Reading post but somethings aren't quite clear to me.

Contact pics- I delete the default ones in that folder and replace them with my own. Once I place my pictures in the folder what do I rename my pics? And I can simply edit them there on the spot, right?

Weather- I was reading up on the weather and still no luck:( While nulll appearing on the screen is not an issue, the actual icons for weather (clouds, sun, rain) do not appear at all-nor does the actual temp. Thankfully my shells weather works fine. How do I access the weather? Get the weather icons?

Time- Military time...OK. been reading up on this but ha! You know the rest..lol Do you need registry editor for that or what:O

Programs- how do you select and link a chosen program to a button? Really having trouble with this.

Soooo lost. Could it be I'm seriously missing a page/post that clearly explains them all. That would be my luck, eh.

Anywho Awesome program to show off to my friends! Need a bit of help though:)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Gentox:
Hi again,

As far as i know weather only updates when you hit refresh button.( i'm not really sure i update when connected to wifi)

To get the comm working you might have to check if your registry settings are the same as the ones used by the theme.

About new features you propose you should ask chriscsh if he can make that happen in a new release maybe ( i did not create this theme chriscsh did all the work i just converted it to vga).

Greetings Gentox.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Elim:
The problem is that the script expect that the contact pictures are all in the directory "contactpic" and have the names "1.png", "2.png", "3.png" and so forth. Therefore you must rename your pictures which normaly not have this filenames. And: they must be in the PNG format!

a) press on the location (town) at the bottom. After it (normally ;-) a dialog pops up where you can add your locationcode. To find out the code go to "http://weather.yahoo.com". Enter your City (and Land) in the field "Enter city or zip code:" and press RETURN. After it a page with the weather of your town was loaded. In the URL is now your locationcode:

"http://weather.yahoo.com/forecast/XXXX.html"

And like Gentox write: press the update button and wait some seconds (after you have access to the internet).

What is the problem with the time?

Looonnnng press to a Icon. The screen refreshs and a filedialog pops up where you can select an application. Normally.

I haven't read the whole 76 pages here but I think that there is no complete explaination at all..

Oh, it is not a program, it is a programmer training... ;-)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Elim:
German version

Okay, here is a simple german version. Simple because I didn't translate the texts in the images. I also correct some errors in the code and change the order of the pages.

Unpack the script in the ZIP file in your manila theme directory. Restart the theme.
[Windows Mobile Themes] uhery:
communications tab

I solved the problem in the communications tab....the phone switch that disappears...i checked the registry keys and I noticed that the values were different relating to connections type:

My registry key (HKLM\System\State\Phone\Cellular System Available) on hermes rom 6.1:

Phone On value is 8

H value is 64 or 17 (if 3G active)

E value is 9

3G value is 16

So I copied the "green switch icon" inside my "phone" folder and I renamed the files to all the values found (64.png 17.png and so on)!:)

i think... the only guarantee is the 0.. the off value!:D

i hope can helps!

@Elim

Good idea to share the skin file translated! :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] ampbains:
OK, very stupid question...what theme are you guys using to get the black menu bars across the top and bottom? I have a theme called HTC Diamond on my tilt, but the menu bars are gray, not black.
[Windows Mobile Themes] turboz22l:
yeah im only seeing downloads for the VGA version maybe im just dumb.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Gentox:
Here you go Manila-Black0.3.CAB

[Windows Mobile Themes] nachos_16:

[Windows Mobile Themes] sneakk:
did you ever figure this out???? i seem to have everything running o.k. but i cant change top and bottom bars to black any and all help is welcome
[Windows Mobile Themes] Gentox:
Hi i use this theme to get the bars black.

Unpack the file and copy DiamondBlack.tsk to your windows folder.

Now you can change the theme you use in your today settings.

Greetings Gentox.
[Windows Mobile Themes] junooni:
weather ain't working........checked everything...

pls post step-by-step for weather
[Windows Mobile Themes] uhery:
some tips

- For this .... i tried to edit “messagecount.mscr” ... i put a blank space between "" in the bold line.....seems to work!

smscount = RegRead("HKCU", "\System\State\Messages\sms\Unread\", "Count")
mailcount = RegRead("HKCU", "\System\State\Messages\TotalEmail\Unread\", "Count")
Totalmessage = (smscount + mailcount)
If (Totalmessage = "0")
RegWriteString("HKCU", "\Software\Manila\Messages", "Main", "0")
[B][B]	RegWriteString("HKCU", "\Software\Manila\Messages", "Totalmessage", " ")[/B][/B]
Else
RegWriteString("HKCU", "\Software\Manila\Messages", "Main", "1")
RegWriteString("HKCU", "\Software\Manila\Messages", "Totalmessage", Totalmessage)
EndIf

- And ...all buttons go to sms and no one to email....I edit the files: “newmail.lnk” and “mailbox.lnk”

mailbox.lnk

20#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "ActiveSync”

Newmail.lnk

21#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "ActiveSync" -to ""

So the link point to outlook E-mail....but you can delete “ActiveSync” and write your server mail (hotmail-gmail ...such as in the chriscsh cab it is "Yahoo!"…) :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] zenkinz:
out of curiousity, have you had the fix for those unresolved items mentioned below?

what do you mean by appointments and read sms will not clear until soft reset?
[Windows Mobile Themes] bobsbbq:
I have not been working with this for a while and after I had to do a hard reset I have not loaded the XIAMultitheme as I'm working currently with another UI.

I will try to explain. The email sms when you recieve a message show an indicator inside a green bubble say"1" for example. After you read or even delete the sms and move to another tab as in the screen shot it will still show a "1" but the green bubble will be gone. The only way to clear the indicator is to soft reset.

Pretty much exactly the same for the appointments. It is a small thing and not that big of deal.You might try to edit the xml as described in the first part of Uhery's post and add a space to see if this works. I have not tried it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] g00ndu:
Yes, I was figuring out on how to overwrite the counter. It seems that for that portion, the screen is not refreshed, like it was stuck at the background.

Tried to figure out what was wrong, but eventually given up hope in finding a solution.
[Windows Mobile Themes] EvgeniyKo:

This theme looks very much like the actual diamond one,i'll check it out when it comes in .cab version.

Very nice work bruv.​
[Windows Mobile Themes] RideTheTube:
is it sure with an cab file???
[Windows Mobile Themes] ray.andy:
This is easy to install using the files attached, been playing with it for about 45 minutes now.

As expected it is still slow compared to the actual HTC Touch Diamond. No matter what is done to it you wont be able to get anything much better.

ALL I CAN SAY IS NICE TRY AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK​

Without Developers like you we would have basic devices !
[Windows Mobile Themes] DurKNesS:
You change the weather location by modding the weather.mscr script. You edit the "Hong Kong, China" in the skin.xml file.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mike21pr:
yea hope a cab version will be released soon for easier install...
[Windows Mobile Themes] over_limit:
past a copy of skin.xml in the folder themes.

Maybe I should have post the instructions for the translated (Italian) files:

1. Unpack the folders

2. Overwrite the file “skin.xml” into “\Programmi\XIAMultiTheme\themes\Manila-Black”

3. Add the folder “phone” into “\Programmi\ XIAMultiTheme\themes\Manila-Black”

4. Overwrite the files off.png and on.png into "\Programmi\ XIAMultiTheme\themes\Manila-Black\Alarm"

5. Overwrite weather.mscr into "\Programmi\ XIAMultiTheme\themes\Manila-Black\mscr"

6. Restart the theme.

Help

Anyone else getting a bunch of Null and Error messages with this?

How do I figure out where to install the programs (ie ThumbCal)? Does it go on main memory or can I install on my SD? Also, do I need to install WeatherPanel or anything extra because I keep getting Null on the weather tab.

Also, how do I change the clock from 24-hours to 12-hours?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Diddy316:
U can install thumbcal in main memory or sd card, but if u want to use the oem calendar all u have to do is to navigate to program files/xiamultitheme/themes/manila black/link n the calendar link in dat folder would be replaced by the oem calendar link in ur windows directory.

For the weather, u need to find ur location code which u can find on yahoo weather...after u enter ur zip code, on the address bar of ur internet browser look in the end of the address, i.e., usnv00xx i live in nevada.

Once u press refresh for weather it should ask u to input the location code.

For changing the clock format i did that by editing the xml file on the pc by using a free xml editor or u can use total commander. (hh, mm, ss)

This is a great and beautiful theme and is very configurable.
[Windows Mobile Themes] tilt4life2:
