Great job ! It's perfectly works on my Diamond.
[Windows Mobile Themes] abumaia:
I've got a question I hope someone could answer for me. I'm using the 1.2 version of this theme, layout B, carousel, modified by me to have only one contact page. I'm seeing a small bug, where clicking on the Programs tab opens the MRU page instead. Where are the settings for the bottom tabs kept so I can track this bug down?

I see that in the qa_layouts.dat file, in the main.xml, tab 2 (programs) and tab 6(mru) both use the same "boundrec" coordinates. I think this may be the source of my trouble, but I'm not sure how to fix it.

edit: I've tried editing the main.xml by swapping the locations of the launcher and mru tabs, and it appears to work in that clicking the tab opens the main programs page, however the underlying problem is still there: clicking the tab still opens the second of the two pages, not the first as I would like it to do.

Hi, I had recently purchased HTC touch diamond in India. Also have used SPB mobile shell, but when i try to add the theme as mentioned ... screen goes not responding or goes blank.

Does it actually works with HTC touch Diamond... But to say frankly .. the is the coolest phone i've ever seen.

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Themes] noddio:
i am using X1, is that possible to change that?
[Windows Mobile Themes] etet:
thankssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
[Windows Mobile Themes] abumaia:
nevermind my earlier question, I decided to drop the mru and go with layout C instead. I would like to note, however, that after installing SPB MS and this theme, my phone no longer drains its battery as fast as it used to. I'm not sure exactly what was changed, but I'm by no means complaining.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ThaBastus:
I cant seem to understand how to understand this, can anyone give me a little more detailed guide? Im not dumb with either computer or my mobile, I just didnt do anything like this before - so just a little more detailed please :)

I tried to install into the Layout-folder first, didnt work.

Then I pasted to the root of the Spd Mobile Shell folder and overwrote existing files. This changed the theme in some way, but it was all fck'd up. Things were laying on each other, sizes wasnt right and stuff like that. Also it was only the Spd Mobile Shell menu which was changed, as I see to this theme it seems that the original TouchFlo3D should change theme?

And yes, in all these cases I remembered to soft reset.

Also I couldnt see the themes if I went to "settings -> spd mobile shell" to change theme. I was only able to sellect 'professional' and 'classical'.

Thank you

EDIT: I only tried with files from the 'Layout A' if that should do any difference?

I want it to look like this with analog clock :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] ThaBastus:
Oh and by the way, I am using a HTC Touch Diamond
[Windows Mobile Themes] ThaBastus:
I tried this, and it works brilliant. Just there is one problem, I find the quality of it quite damaged. It seems like lower bit or something like it.

Could any more professional work on a cab file for this theme (look a few posts above this for how I want it to look) for a novice please?

Using HTC Touch Diamond with SPB 2.1

I hope it isnt too great a job to do.

Thanks in advance

I just want to know how to get the theme to stay. I mean everytime i press the end key it goes back to the default theme. How do i make the Diamond theme my default theme?

Please HELP!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] oraclegustavo:
I have tried installing many different theme files, one at a time on new installations because of what happens. Basically I copy the files into the root Spb Mobile Shell directory, soft reset and then once it boots back I cant open the spb menu. Every time I try to click on the soft key on the bottom right it does nothing. I try to go into the settings for different parts of spb mobile shell and it just gives me a black screen. I can see the screen is on because I can see the backlight. I then have to restart the device, omnia 910, because I cant do anything else. Driving me crazy because I really like the mobile shell but I dont like the default look of it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have version 2.1.5.

I use this skin, but one thing is missing (for me). Is there way, how to change "outlook" contact details page called from spb contacts to details called from speed dial?
[Windows Mobile Themes] oraclegustavo:
anyone have any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Themes] erichss:
GreatBal, love your Mobile Shell themes. I used to use the GSmart themes you made, back when I had the regular HTC Touch. Now that I have a Treo Pro, is there any plans for you to make 320x320 sized for the Treo Pro? PM me is so please...thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] cguilhim:
Hi.

I did not read all the thread, bur it seems to me that the "X" close button on the right bottom of the original mobile shell screen disappeared, on the modded skins. Is that so? How can we close spb mobile shell when we need a little more memory?

My P535 has only 31Mb available and, most of the times, I need at least 28/29Mb free.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] poisonspider:
VGA

Hi all

Does somebody work on a VGA version of greatbal's GSmart themes? This is the best skin for Spb MS (for me) I like it so much coz it is easy and have all what we need and not more! Can I hope for this skin for my Touch Diamond?

Maybe somebody knows more about it.. I hope!

Hi I'm new to this forum and I've been looking to buy SPB MS 2.1 but there's only 3.0.

So in case if it might not work, I tried downloading the trial and it doesn't seem to work.

Does it only have to be 2.1.0? Where can I purchase them?
[Windows Mobile Themes] lerac:
Perfect theme. Only thing thats missing is more then 1 weather location. Since I travel a lot within the country I live.

For the rest I can't imagine a better one

I can't get this to work with ms3.5. It looked horrible.

Does it work with this as well?

Somebody asked this question earlier, but no body answered.
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
This will not work in spb ms 3.5
[Windows Mobile Themes] prof_eduards:
Anything for VGA?

How about for VGA, any good works on this?

Thanks a lot!

can this skin be used on shell 3.5?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Irishpride:
C'mon now, you just have to read up 2 posts to answer that.
[Windows Mobile Themes] numaproject:
Great work!

I was just wandering if there is a grey or light grey status icons...

Thank you and thank you for the best theme ever.!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] a_sun_of_beach:
sorry, of the 2000+ posts, i missed that one post because i posted my comment after looking at the first 100+ comments.

I am really sorry to bother you, can you please find it in your heart for forgive me.

Is it possible to have the Manila 2d background for the original greatbal theme? Thaaank you!
[Windows Mobile Themes] blackcat2000:
SPB 2.1.0 is such an old version now. They are at 3.5 now. I really want to try this. The earliest I could find was 2.1.1 which apparently isn't compatible...

I've looked everywhere for it...anyone have an old copy?

I found a .cab file buried in this post (I was looking at something else and found it)...search couldn't find it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bsinclair:
Agree, I really use the big profile button on the now screen a lot, that's why my prefered layout on 1.1 is D, as I do not have spb phone suite installed.

If you just show where to edit to get it, I can adapt one of the new layouts.
[Windows Mobile Themes] cincy1020:
I also liked the large profile indicator. My problem with the new small version, is that although it looks great in the Now screen, once you add the file to phone suites, it changes the indicator in phone suites on the Today screen also. Obviously it looks pretty silly with the other indicators, so I had to disable it from showing on the Today plugin, since I do use both the Now screen, and Today screen.

No night weather support

Mobile Shell does not have the option display different weather icons at night. It's a limitation of SPB MS not of this theme.

Layout H with 3x3 contacts

Here's a layout that was requested. It has the 8 picture contacts.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Manster:
Hi!

Finally I can see for sure who I'm calling :)

Lucky me, i have more friends than that...

Is it possible to make a layout with 3 pages 3x3 picturecontacts, that is - for layout "Layout C- 3 Contacts Pages"

Thank you.

I hope this improves in subsequent versions.
[Windows Mobile Themes] wisniak:
How can I exit the main screen and go to the Today screen?

I found that by pressing the OK button on my Tilt, I can exit to the Today screen. I think that using the regular SHELL 2.1 skins there was another way to do this.

Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Themes] MrDSL:
Thanks for the layout.... :)

Dude you have more than 8 friends? I feel so alone LOL!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] smittyofdhs:
doesn't matter what skin you are using, you can hit the OK button to return to the main menu, that's a function of the application, not the skin. BUT>> if you are using SPBWATCHER, then returning to the today screen can't happen because spbwatcher forces MS2.1 to re-open.
[Windows Mobile Themes] uiskibum:
by chance could you share your original files (i'm assuming .psd) for the status icons?
[Windows Mobile Themes] sasquatch006:
Would it be possible to get a 3 x 3 for Layout A? Thanks so much in advance, and thanks to everyone who's put in the work on this great package!
[Windows Mobile Themes] playadru182:
is it possible to get all the backgrounds extracted?? i.e. to be used for S2U2?
[Windows Mobile Themes] cstewart:
Yes the 3X3 would be a little easier to see (assuming the contact imges were also enlarged).

Any chance of this happening?

SPB Feature Requests

For this feature or any other feature you would like to see implemented into Mobile Shell or any other SPB product, you should go to SPB website forums. They have threads for feature requests. If enough of us go there and request things like this then maybe they will put them in future versions.
[Windows Mobile Themes] robertus3d:
I'm happy you resolved!:)
[Windows Mobile Themes] xmoo:
IT would be dope if spb made the tabs with Touch Flo technology. Just like Ultimate Launcher.
[Windows Mobile Themes] stigdu:
Thank you sir. :)

The bad news... the folder is empty, and I'm not sure how to put my games shortcuts in there because I can't find a separate 'games' folder anywhere else on my device. :/
[Windows Mobile Themes] NotShorty:
Thanks for the feedback on this.

This skin looks fantastic when installed in my WM6.1 standalone emulator, but looks like I'll be missing out due to my anemic hardware...

[Windows Mobile Themes] cincy1020:
Hi:

Although I do not use the games icon, I assume you set it up the same way you do My Menu. You go into settings, Customize Menu, the click on games, then go to the lower right. There you will see menu, select it, and add link to whatever you want (in your case your games).

Anyway, I hope this works for you, if not, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will chime in :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] greatbal:
Just go to

SPB Menu>Settings>Customize Menu>Click Games>Menu (Right Softkey)>Add>Link

or

SPB Menu>Settings>SPB Mobile Shell>Click Advanced Tab>Click Menu Button>Click Games>Menu (Right Softkey)>Add>Link

You have to add all your game links individually.

hello my friend and thank again for layout A full slide :D

can you help me for the post ..here

:o
[Windows Mobile Themes] greatbal:
Pressing the OK button to minimize MS is a feature of SPB Mobile Shell. Alternatively, you can gesture down to do that.
[Windows Mobile Themes] greatbal:
Ok, will work on it. Please attach the weather icons here so i can adjust the position.
[Windows Mobile Themes] lepsyfou:
ok thank you :p you arbe very fine
[Windows Mobile Themes] greatbal:
Copy the qa_layouts.dat of the downloaded zip file to your device's \Program Files\SPB Mobile Shell folder. After soft reset, try to cycle through all the tabs by using the left and right gestures. That's the only difference with this layout and the original Layout A. In Layout A, you will cycle between Analog and Digital clock pages only, cycle between Main Menu and MRU pages only, and cycle between the 3 contacts pages only. So there is a sort of an "endless loop" on those three tabs on Layout A.

Whereas in Layout A - Carousel, you cycle through all tabs and pages with the left and right gestures.
[Windows Mobile Themes] greatbal:
Thanks. I'll try to work on this when I'm back from work. Expect it within 24 hours. :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] lepsyfou:
I thank you in advance, it is difficult to understand when one speaks little international language :eek:, your skins I'm not tired, they are beautiful,

je te remercie d'avance, c'est difficile de se faire comprendre quand on parle peu la langue internationale :eek:, tes skins je m'en lasse pas, ils sont magnifiques ,
[Windows Mobile Themes] cincy1020:
Hi Greatbal:

Thanks for the layout updates!

Does layout B now support gestures (carousel)?

Or, is there a way to have only one Now screen on layout A?

Thanks again!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] rwertz14:
Got it, Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] hoolahoous:
change contact ?

Here are my problems.

1) I set a contact in contact screen. Now how do I replace it with some other contact (or delete it) ? There doesn't seem to be any (obvious) way to change it and assign any other contact to same place.

2) Also I would like Comm Manager to be easily accessible so I can switch on or off following things :-

Ringer/BlueTooth/Wifi

Any help will be appreciated.
[Windows Mobile Themes] BeyondInvisible:
Lespyfou's request

Done. Please see this post

@Greatbal: Sorry Greatbal, I had to take out the "Page title" to have the weather icons fit. I guess when people want to see weather, they already know.
[Windows Mobile Themes] dinoalbert:
Games folder is in Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Games folder...create a shortcut of your games there.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mtkates:
Change/Remove Contact

Problem 1) Tap and hold on the contact you want to replace or remove. After holding down for about 1 second, a menu will pop up.

This info is in the Mobile Shell user manual available at SPB website. I don't know about problem 2, info may be in user manual as well, not sure(I can't do all your homework for you).
[Windows Mobile Themes] lepsyfou:
WWWAZurrpp thanks amigo lol merci , you are best of the best "weatherman" lol:D
[Windows Mobile Themes] stanglifemike:
1) hold your stylus on the contact pic for a few seconds and it will pull up a menu

2) you can customize menu to have it as a pinned MRU
[Windows Mobile Themes] dinoalbert:
I installed SPB Phone Suite today, my first time to use this app. Followed instruction of greatbal for SPB Phone Suite users...soft reset my device, and now I have a this choices for profiles.

however...the icon on the upper right corner (between the signal and battery levels) which was a speaker icon before.....is now something like overlapping squares. Is this the normal icon?
[Windows Mobile Themes] smittyofdhs:
yes it is... you can have custom icons for each sound profile. The 2 squares is the generic icon that can be used and by default is used for one of the profiles. Go into phone suite and check out the settings and you'll understand what I'm talking about. There's much more then just sound profiles in PhoneSuite, there are many other features (Hint; you don't have to enable the today screen to get some of the features to work).
[Windows Mobile Themes] dinoalbert:
ok thanks! I will play with it :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] smittyofdhs:
A cool feature is the "Reject Call - Send text message" feature. When you reject a call it gives you an option to send an sms to the caller. It has some pre-defined text or you can type whatever you want.

Layout Request...

Greatbal, skinners, themers:

This may be my third post, but I've been reading all these theme and skin and tweak threads for a week straight now, just don't have the skills to make anything myself, so.......

I was wondering:

Is there any way you could add a weather status display onto the home page?

Also, I use layout H, but I'd rather have a calendar tab AND mru, rather than "Now, programs, mru, weather, contacts", so could you maybe modify it so that the weather tab is integrated into the Home/Now screen with an icon?

I have two different variations in mind

Layout X

(In tab order left to right)

Home/Now (single digital clock, and weather icon that links to weather page-- like when you tap the icon in the current weather page)

Calendar

Programs

MRU

Contacts

or maybe a theme with

Layout Y

(In tab order left to right)

Home/Now (single digital clock, weather icon that links to weather page-- like when you tap the icon in the current weather page)

Calendar

Programs with launcher bar on top

Contacts

Greatbal, I appreciate your time and dedication and my heart goes out to what's going on in your country
[Windows Mobile Themes] gh0st-:
i have a question, how do i set icons / programs in MRU? Im using layout A. any suggestions? guides?

Thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Themes] greatbal:
Will work on Layout B - Carousel style tonight. GMT +8 :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] greatbal:
MRU is the "Most Recently Used" applications. You could actually "Pin" any of the mru applications by tapping-and-holding on its icon until a popup menu appears. By "pinning" that app, it will always appear on your MRU. And of course, you can re-arrange the mru items after that. :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] greatbal:
No problem. Love your weather icons. :)

Can you please post your png or PSD files of those icons? Thanks! :)

[Windows Mobile Themes] gagaza:
Layout H with 3x3 contacts and big weather

I received a request for layout H with 8 contacts and big weather icons. I will post here cuz I think more people might want it. The folder contains the layout and the weather icons. As usual , unzip onto your computer and then copy files to your Mobile shell folder in your phone. For people that want 3 pages of 3x3 contacts gimme some time. I did one up awhile ago, but ended up not using it. It seemed to take up more memory, so I didn't like it. I just changed my set up so that I have Pocket CM come up from contacts page. I find it just as quick to use. Anyway, I hope that I have it saved somewhere. It took me along time to figure it out.

Samurize Weather

Hey gagaza

I have been working on the samurize weather icons, but not that big due to losing some information on the screen, but i've had a quick look this morning at the maximum size and this is the outcome.

If i get time tomorrow morning when i get home from work i'll try to post the finished Theme, or the weather files if that's all your after.

Meanwhile he's a teaser ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] gagaza:
I posted a thank you in the other thread. But I don't think that I can thank you enough. So I'll thank you again here. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
[Windows Mobile Themes] gagaza:
I am using Layout H and the only thing that looks odd to me is that on the secondary pages there is the black glossy bar at the top. I attached some pics to show what I'm talking about. The first one has it and the second one is my layout that doesn't. I attached a layout H with 3x3 contacts, big weather and no black bar. I just prefer the way it looks without it. I am uploading this layout in case others might have the same preference. Personally I am still using the Samurize 2 weather icons and the second page of weather really looks weird with the black bar on top. Just giving another option. Greatbal I hope you don't mind. By the way, I don't think that I've expressed enough, my gratitude for all the work that you've contributed to this forum. You are simply amazing with all of your talents and generosity to this community.If you look at my post above , you'll see that I gave many thanks to 420Mac. Well to you Sir, I give the same thanks a million times over.

P.S. this will not remove the bar fom the main pages. To use it just change the extension from .zip to .dat.
