There is a problem with this. The text message icon can be in either the first or second position, so the background will look wrong sometimes.

On a related note, when I make it actually transparent I get a second set of numbers showing through. Is there any way to get rid of these?

[Windows Mobile Themes] Ph33zy:
How do you get those alternate icons (ie. Pacman for Games, Globe for internet..etc)
[Windows Mobile Themes] iamnohs:
Absolutely it's possible. Of course, step one is to install Mobile Shell 2.1. Then just drop the .dat files from whatever theme you want (like greatbal's 2.0 theme, for example) into the Mobile Shell folder under Program Files. Restart, and enjoy.

I'm still using greatbal's 1.2 theme, though, since landscape support isn't available yet in his 2.0 theme.

A question just to overcome the load of your theme:

Is it possible to have only one programs page and one contact page?

Just a button left and right at the bottom pointing to those two.

I read all pages more than once but I could not find such a thing.

If this can be done you are the one that can! :D

It's obviously not ideal because it doesn't go well with the black Diamond theme, but it goes much better than the grey HTC one I had before, lol. Which, by the way is all I kept coming up with when searching. Apparently that dark grey is call black, because "black comm manager" just kept leading me to the various HTC grey ones. I also had the same problem when searching for a black action screen.

slight changes to Gagaza's mods

Here are my changes to Gagaza base. Added the backlight "r0" mru to the top left replaced the small unneeded clock, moved the clock down 10, and replaced the colander page with a 2nd contacts page and converted both pages to 3x3. I would like to change the detailed weather page to llok more like beyonds 1.4.1 for gb v2 theme. I have found a way to close mobile shell from memory when rotating the screen. I hardly use MS in landscape, so what i did was in all the xml's in qa_layouts i removed all resolutions besides 240x320 then I removed all files in the mobile shell directory starting with ql_*****. Now when ever i slide my keyborad open ms closes and frees up tons of memory, the users with 128mb ram will not want this but anyone else like me running 64mb ram still this is great because you dont need to soft reset to see changes take effect simply slide your keyboard to close mobile shell and then when you reopen it the changes will have taken effect. This has saved me many soft resets so far. So heres my qa_layouts.dat and some screen shots. make sure to rename qa_layouts.zip to qa_layouts.dat

Hi gagaza,

I like your theme,

I have tested and it is working fine for me on LGKS 20 but I got a question:

is that is possible to get Data connection when we click on the first page at the Connection Icon, as we actualy have with the Phone mode like silent and normal ...

it will be more easy to make like Plan mode or to activate directly the Wireless or the Bluetooth... that will be an Option.

thanks man for your great works ...

do you have any idea where i can get the htc diamond Contact mode?

Heya all, an Omnia user here too, just wondering, is it possible to edit the layout.xml so that the theme will work on our phones? If all the doodads etc are aligned to the top it would look just fine I think. I can live with abit of space unused.

So then, anyone know what I need to do? (I'll happily post the edited .dat for the rest of the omnia users too.)

Also, cheers to greatbal for making an awesome theme.

I love this theme, but when I tried this on my i760, nothing happens and it just freezes. I tried Layout A and C with Diamond 1.2. I think someone else had the same problem.

I did change the original layout to 9 boxes for my Programs and added a Games icon if that matters. Any help is appreciated.

Rename the "qp_bkg_now.zip" to "qp_bkg_now.dat" and copy it to your mobile shell folder.

My little trick for start menu

Hi,

Download a freeware "Quick Menu".

Put in your device (i put in memory card)

Follow the instructions of thread on page 121

If somebody will be interested, i will post my *.dat files here
[Windows Mobile Themes] dmbpj:
can you post the .dat file?

we all are on different post er page counts. so page 121 for you might be page 25 for someone that has 50 posts per page.

I created the start menu but I cannot make it drop down like in your picture, instead it goes to different page when i hit the button. I want the dropdown. Can you help me with that?
[Windows Mobile Themes] paulosot:
read the post 1204

my start menu > portuguese brazilian

the trick is create a new file based on taskbar.bmp (located in qp_bkg_now) with "start" text.

rename-it to taskbar1.bmp

make a backup of yor files qp_bkg_now.dat and qa_layouts.dat if any trouble.
[Windows Mobile Themes] dmbpj:
will do. thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] jomo25:
Well, you really want to look at post 1174, where the instructions are originally posted and includes the attached file.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2430128&postcount=1174

Now, having just got some of this to work, I can say, you need to modify the LockScreen.xml and the Main.xml files inside the qa_layouts.dat file.

The hard part is the exact changes will vary depending on what theme you are using and how it was written, but here are the changes as best I can describe (in all cases replace the [ ] with < and >:

In Main.xml:

In the default layout section e.g. [Layout Name="Default"]

Under [Plugins]

Under the tab section you want to add the menu or MRU button

E.g. [Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Tab" Name="Tab1" ID="0"] add:

[String Name="Data" Value="Spb.Data.Launcher" /]

In LockScreen.xml:

In the simple layout section e.g. [Layout Name="Simple"]

Under [Plugins] add:

[Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Generic" Name="r1" ID="1" /]

Under the layout extension section e.g. [Layout Name="240x320-Simple"]

Under e.g. [Plugins Extends="Simple"]

Add:

[Plugin Name="r1"]

[BoundRect X="0" Y="0" Width="25" Height="25" /]

[/Plugin]

Then, you will have a button on your main home screen that is the same as the first pinned item on your MRU page (besides the backlight).

I know the above may be a bit confusing, as the section to paste these into will vary on your config, but the code is essentially what you need.
[Windows Mobile Themes] chino331:
does anyone know how to fix this?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mtkates:
I have never seen that problem before. I used ver 1.2 in the past. I am currently beta testing version 2.1 with landscape support and have not seen that problem there either.

You might try uninstalling Mobile Shell and Phone Suite, remove both folders for those programs in your Programs folder, then reinstall both programs and then your theme files.

Ver 2.1 with landscape should be posted real soon. I haven't come across any bugs in the last 2 days I've been using it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] chino331:
I've tried that, even hard reset my phone a few times to start from scratch, and it keeps popping up only when the custom profile is selected. When I had 2.0 on my phone, the same thing happened with that version, and it's just on the custom icon. :(

oooo I can't wait for 2.1 to come out... :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] greatbal:
can't wait for version 2.1 too. :)

Request, can you add on this version the upper-left Pinned-item (MRU) mod so we can integrate QuickMenu (or other apps) which can simulate the Start button on it's place. :)

Thanks for working on this one. I have my hands tied on a new project. hehe ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Timb320:
Ditto on version 2.1.. I have the TYTN II and use landscape often. Great work overall... Anctiously waiting.. :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mtkates:
It's funny you should say that, I already added it to the version I am using on my phone, so yes, I can definately include it.

I PM'ed you a link to download v2.1 so you could give it your stamp of approval. I didn't know if you wanted me to post it or if you were going to post an update.
[Windows Mobile Themes] gagaza:
Sorry about that. I had no missed calls at the time so I didn't notice.

I had the position off by a value of 5. Attached is the corrected layout. Please change from .zip to .dat and put in your folder.

Or you can edit your Lockscreen.xml. Whichever is quicker for you.

Find this in your portrait layout. My error was that I put the Y="165". Please just change to match example.

<Plugin Name="Status1">

<BoundRect X="39" Y="170" Width="165" Height="33" />

<String Name="Up" Value="AnalogClock"/>

</Plugin>

I won't be updating the previous download file until Friday.

Sorry,for the inconvenience. Please let me know if you find anything else

This was just a quickie that I did to give someone ideas for a layout that he wanted to do.

I have decided to add some enhancements to this on my next day off. Which is Friday. I've got some ideas that I've already mentioned.

Here's a pic of the detail weather page that I'll be including. I had time to do them earlier. Thanks to BeyondInvisibles for the graphics.

By the way for you V.2 users, BeyondInvisible just released a natural weather page that is compatible.
[Windows Mobile Themes] lunarken:
es pls do so, thx
[Windows Mobile Themes] gagaza:
My very easiest suggestion is to use the button on the very top left.

It will always match the second button on your mru screen. Just link it to your comm manager. You can change it up anytime, by moving whatever you want into that second position.

If you use that button for a different purpose, and prefer not to change it up, install the layout with 2 mrus and link that button to comm manager. I believe that I have that set to match the third button on the mru page.

Anyway, that's the quick and easy way and one of many reasons that I incorpoated the buttons. Hope the info is useful.
