ClearTemp is already there, it launches when you click the remaining progam memory meter :D but the screenshot button is a good idea! I'll release a version with screenshot button and one with bt/wifi meter.

The red "Aa" launches iContact for me, it doesn't lead to a shortcut screen! But you can have as many as you need. The only problem (again) is that HomeScreen++ is not easily customizable :( in the default skin there are 3 "pages": the launcher page, the weather page and the settings page.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dewydewy:
Sounds cool!! A screenshot button sometimes is pretty useful. :D

Erm...I use Vito FunContact so it replaces the default windows mobile contacts which means FunContact pops up when I click the right softkey. (Generally the right softkey launches the default contact book). So I am just assuming that the red "Aa" might not be very helpful for me, alas. I think I am dying to have more "pages" to include my shortcuts. One page is a bit limited. :eek:

Btw, the setting of new bs looks similar to the one I am using. Any great further progress?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evinh0:
instead of a button to open the contacts, u could make a Favorite Contacts button :P

like htc home ^^ where show ur fav ppl and u can cal or send sms
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] beher:
2.5 look very good but when you upload?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
I had no access to my pc these days, but now I am here and I'm cleaning the XML up for release. I think in 1 hour I'll have posted it.

(Less than 1 hour after :D)

All right! A first version is ready. I'm sure you'll find bugs, but help me and I'll correct them.

[size=+1]Download the package here:[/size]

http://rapidshare.com/files/139541825/Wheee_v2.51.rar.html

This theme is QVGA only!​

Instructions:

1) Download and install the latest version of Homescreen++! The theme won't work with BatteryStatus!

2) Extract the archive you downloaded (Wheee_v2.50.rar). Copy the "Wheee" folder and the "Wheee.xml" file to your Homescreen++ directory. Open the "Storage Card" folder, and copy the "Wheee" folder you find there to your Storage Card.

3) Customize your skin. Sadly, it is not very easy to customize HS++ skins, but I have tried to make it a little easier. Open the Wheee.xml file with any text editor, and after the lines where you see "EDIT:", edit the paths to programs or plugins with the ones you want. You also have to set up a weather plugin - I use WeatherPanel with the Diamond skin by Rumball (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=401781), I will make a Sticker skin for WeatherPanel too when I find some time.

4) Enable HS++ as the only Today item, go into HS++ settings and choose the Wheee theme, you're done! Also remember to check all the "extra" indicators in HS++ settings.

Note: inside the "Storage Card" folder in the Wheee archive, there's a "text" folder. If you place the icons that you find there in the Storage Card\Wheee folder in your device, you'll get a launcher that looks like this:

A big "thank you!" to:

+ David Lanham, Sticker icon set artist (http://dlanham.com/art/sticker/)

+ Chi-Tai, for his excellent HS++ today plugin (http://www.chi-tai.info/)

+ Dotfred, for his Task Manager app which I included in Wheee (http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm)

+ ValeraVi, for the sound/mute/vibration tool (I used that one too) (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=279228)

+ Everyone using my skin :D wheeeee thx!

ToDo list:

+ Little customizations, release a second version with more plugin pages and a screenshot icon instead of bt/wifi

+ More icons on request! If you want Sticker-like icons for specific apps you use, request them here and I'll do what I can. I don't have a lot of time, so maybe once a week I'll release an icon pack with all the weekly requests.

+ Wheee skin for WeatherPanel

+ Bug correcting, I know there are some bugs (like having to click twice to get out of Settings), I'll try to correct them.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dewydewy:
Oh My goodness! be the first one to reply after wheee v2.5 release!!!

Purely awesome! Great Job Ufufu!!! I am gonna read it through one word by one word. :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] htcfanboi:
hi i have an htc diamond and i have done all the steps step by step and when i finished and rebooted.... it was just the normal homescreen++

i dont have a storage card considering the htc diamond has internal so for the things i had to put in storage i put in internal plz help
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dewydewy:
i am definitely gonna wait for screenshot version! Fantastic job!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] htcfanboi:
hey dewy do you have this theme up and running....

cause i dont understand....

do i need to have the previous version installed...

and another question Task List (TaskManager) doesnt work.... when i click on it nothing happens.... please help me please!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dewydewy:
erm...i guess that i am not the best person to help out coz i am actually using wheee v1 now:confused:. I did not give a try to wheeev2 and wheeev2.5 yet but I assume that we need to follow some steps in wheeev2 to achieve the success in wheeev2.5, e.g., wad theme?

for task list (task manager), I think that you need to have this program in your rom to make the link work?

anyways please feel free to leave questions, Ufufu has been always the kindest and best guide. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bububang:
im using this theme since the first version.. but in this version i duno what i did wrong.. the icon-link hardly load-able.. :confused:

when i hold and press it show something is loading.. but then nothing happen..

After that whole application looks "freeze"
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bububang:
u doesnt need previous version installed.. because as i see from the archive all is included.. i duno how the htc diamond directory will be.. so couldnt help about the directory linking..

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

Wheee.xml

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

Inside the wheee.xml all icon is link to "Storage Card(MicroSD)"

Remove the "\Storage Card" and then inside archive(Wheee.rar) Copy the Storage Card\Wheee folder(Only Wheee folder) to your root folder.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
@htcfanboi: Ah :( I am so sorry, I forgot to mention that this theme is qVGA only... You cannot use it on your Diamond. I will update the first post to clarify that.

This version of the theme does NOT need WAD, you can use it without the top bar if you want! And you don't need to have v2 installed, it's standalone.

@bubu: Hmmm :confused: let me check it out 1 sec.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] htcfanboi:
oh darn.... oh well i must say it is very sexi theme... hehe
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
Thanks! I wish I had the time to make it VGA, but I don't even have a VGA device.

bubu, maaaybe you clicked on the weather tab, without having edited the XML file to a plugin of your choice? If so, it will try to load WeatherPanel, if you don't have it installed there will be problems I guess.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bububang:
But when i try to click..

""Scripts\tinybatch.exe ::launcher.bat"" :(

After load nothing happen..

Edited:Finally get it to load.! After today screen time-out(More than x min). I refresh the theme and it show.

After see the xml.. i think i understand how its works..

Inside main row, it have 3

[220]

[220]

[220]

Inside button row , it have another 3

[70]

[70]

[70]
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
Eeeh? What do you mean?

I tried to uninstall everything and install it again, and it works fine for me :(

Maybe you just click on the launcher button? Nothing is supposed to happen if you just click, you need to click and hold, aah, I keep forgetting to mention stuff like that. If that's not the problem, I'm afraid I don't know what's wrong...edit: ah! so it worked?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] beher:
hi ufufu thank to upload

i have one question?

i remove battery status?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
Yes! HomeScreen++ is just the new version and name of BatteryStatus. Uninstall BatteryStatus and install the latest HS++ version.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bububang:
it only work for 1 time.. hardly get it work.. i think i will edit it back to old version :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
Damn :( try one more thing: edit the launcher.bat file, and instead of Sleep 100, put Sleep 300. Maybe this fixes the problem?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] roxorz:
yeah mine looks screwed up just like yours.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evinh0:
everything working fine here except the "profile" button, it gives tinybatch.exe cannot be opened/found
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
Ah, yes, that is my mistake: I updated the download link with a corrected Wheee.xml.

If you don't want to replace your edited Wheee.xml, open it with a text editor, and change the path in the volume line to this (you can search for "volume%d" to find where this line is).

<Item class="registry_tracker" ontap="StartApp" onhold="StartApp" path="Scripts\tinybatch.exe ::rotate.bat">	<image left="95" top="110" height="48" width="48" src="\Storage Card\Wheee\volume%d.png"/>

Since it works for you, I really really can't understand why it doesn't work for the other people :( maybe try playing with the Sleep values as I said before? Or still not working?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] roxorz:
how did you get weather panel like that? i tried the top bar too but it was just giving me a plain grey bar.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bminor:
I have just tried Homescreen++ for the first time. I'm really surprised for the Wheee theme. It is really amazing, thanks Ufufu.

But I have some stupid questions:

What can I do to make my today exactly like the screenshot from Ufufu?

I have tried to install Wisbar Advance, and of course the theme set of wheee. But my background and system bar (start icon and bar) is only the same as grey bar.

How can I get the background and customize the sytem bar like Ufufu did?

Thanks in advance!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] roxorz:
yeah i think he left a lot out of the instructions. mine looks nothing close to his either.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bububang:
U need to install WeatherPlugin from the XML, its known as WeatherPanel
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bububang:
I tested with the Sleep value.. (max 300)

Actually what the Sleep value does? I try add one extra sleep value same as homescreen.bat , when i press on it , it doesnt show anything is loading :confused:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] abumhmmd1:
THANKs

need >>> text editor !!

any 1 can att. it ...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
I think when I posted the Wisbar theme I left out the top and bottom bar backgrounds, because those depend on the wallpaper you want to use. If you post here your wallpaper of choice, I will make a more complete WA3 theme and send it to you. About everything else (the system bar), the instructions are those I posted, it should work :( unfortunately both HS++ and WA3 depend on user settings too and not just skin settings, but when I gave instructions for WA3, I tried to include everything you must do.

I don't think I left out any instructions!

Sleep value tells the script to wait a little for the previous action to have finished loading. On a slow processor, more Sleep time is needed. But in my device, which has 200 MHz processor, Sleep 100 is fine, so I don't know why the script doesn't work for you...

When I click on the scripts, it doesn't show anything is loading either! But it gives the registry commands to HS++ and it changes views just fine.

No need for a ppc text editor! Just open it with Notepad on your PC, edit what you must, and copy it to your device.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bminor:
Thanks, Ufufu.

I love your wallpaper of the screenshot and especially the "start" icon and the icon nearby. So, I want to replace the traditional one. And maybe, we need your guide to do that.:D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dasilva333:
can you post your instructions again for how to install wisbar advanced theme, i tried it with v3.2 on my wm6.1 rom and it didn't work for me.

the icons aren't changing at all, it'd be nice if you could just give a brief summary of the version you use of wisbar as well as the settings you changed, i know you mentioned it previously but those instructions didn't work for me.\

also id like to request some customs icons for TomTom, BeeHive IM and as well as Egress or any general RSS looking icon

btw thanks this theme looks so great so far u rock

okay i got WA3 theme to work, the file mappings were set incorrectly bc the whee.wisbar file is inside the folder even tho it should be outside the folder, or to maintain the same convention used in other theme files you can keep the whee.wisbar file inside the wisbar advance folder and just edit the file to point to the same directory

my only problem now is that i can't get all the taskbar icons (top right) to work, only the volume worked by default im not sure what im doing wrong help pls?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Vicnt:
Thanks for the awesome theme Ufufu

But I have a question, How do you customize the weather part?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
All right, give me a few days - can't work on it now.

The main problem is that you need an older version of WA3 - check the earlier posts to find which, they removed native png transparency in later versions :(

All right about the icons! Will work on them later.

About what's going wrong, probably what I mentioned: you need an earlier version of WA3 (v3.2), if you have a later one, icons will show screwed up.

If it's not the problem, explain what the problem is so I can help you! Are the icons surrounded by purple? Did you do this?

Taskbar > Others > Display the actual notification icon, The network icon uses the default icon, The phone icon uses the default icon: All UNchecked!

Follow the link I gave earlier! Greatbal's WeatherPanel theme, it's almost un-customized by me. If you install it according to the instructions in that thread, you don't even need to change Wheee.xml, it will work!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dasilva333:
thanks for the reply

this is what my taskbar looks like:

http://img58.imageshack.us/img58/5831/clipboard2jg3.jpg

ive got a kaiser running wm6.1 20270 rom and ive got wisbar w transparency png support my only problem is the connect and signal icons for the wisbar theme

now for the homescreen theme im not sure how to get rid of the AM/PM and alarm bell icon they look really bad there

also i noticed theres a signal meter on the top left of some themes and i noticed its in the xml file but it doesn't show for me.

finally my last question is what button or action is supposed to activate the mortbutton's for changing the sound profile?

edit: took me a bit to find the screen ill post it to avoid others from having that same mistake; thanks a lot this is what it looks like now:

http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/1144/clipboard3za8.jpg <- all unchecked

http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/674/clipboard4fy2.jpg<- now working

thinking about it i was also wondering if you could change the G to an H to represent HSDPA instead of GPRS or maybe 3G, not a big deal just thought i should ask
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Vicnt:
Thanks for the fast reply Ufufu, I was being stupid and didn't wait long enought for weather to load, my bad

I love the theme and how it works!

I'm customizing it with the programs that I use, and it works perfectly, thanks again!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
Ah, I see, you need to do what I wrote in the previous post :P

Open the WA3 settings, and go to Taskbar, then to the Others tab.

Make sure that "Display the actual notification icon", "The network icon uses the default icon", "The phone icon uses the default icon" are all UNchecked! NOT checked.

Yep, am/pm looks bad coz I have 24h time and I never bothered to skin it :S if you do not want to change your clock to 24h, you can move am/pm symbol a little to make it nicer, or I can move it for you.

Open HS++ options, and tick "Show CpuSpeed" and "Show Mobile Operator" on the first page. Also, go to the "Indicator" tab and tick "Show more Indicators".

Ah, noone showed an interest to MortButtons so I didn't bother explaining the volume settings.

Install V_Vibrate by ValeraVi (I linked to it in v2.5 post). In the Start Menu, you now have some V_Vibrate shortcuts.

Make a MortButtons config with 4 buttons, first is loud (link to V_Vibrate Off shortcut), second is quiet (link to V_Vibrate All Off), third is vibrate (link to V_Vibrate On), last is Exit. If I didn't explain well enough ask me :)

Ah, just saw the edit, nice then! Yes I can make the icon easily, but I don't think WA3 can tell the difference, it will always be "H".

Yaaaaay :D you're welcome.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dewydewy:
@ Ufufu

i am still learning from all wheee users' replies and patiently waiting for the wheee v2.5 version2. May I know when you shall release the version 2 of wheee v2.5? I greatly appreciate your wheee and help!! :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] beher:
hi,

very nice but where ultimatelaunch[slide effect,tabs...],rltoday player[with s2p]?

i prefer the last version she's most customizable.

[sorry for my english].

i have on my trinity the 2.5 but i try to do something with ultimate launch
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dewydewy:
yea i could not agree with you more. wheee v2.5 is amazingly fabulous with more professional decoration and settings whereas wheee v1 is more customizable for today's plugin and many other personal tweaks (coz of UL). Alas, that's why I am greatly looking forward to Ufufu's promise about wheee v2.5 version 2.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
You are all right, the theme was easier to customize with UltimateLaunch, but I meddled with it because the bottom icons can't be used to launch programs on UltimateLaunch... I was constantly clicking "programs", "opera mini", so I prefer to have it in my first screen :p plus more things to play with in HS++!

The "dewy" version will be ready in 1-2 days, once I get back to my pc and play a little :D

In the meanwhile, can people please test the version I attach? I think it will work for everyone that had problems before, plus it is much much faster and even has flip animation when changing screens - my favourite! UL didn't have flip :(

You don't need to overwrite anything, just paste WheeeTest.xml in your HS++ folder and choose WheeeTest theme in HS++ options. Pleeaaase test it and report :eek:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dewydewy:
wooo hoooo exciting news ever! even more exciting coz it is temporarily named "dewy version" :D

for UL, I am a little bit confused about the downside. I think that we could add software shortcuts to any UL page in order to launch the most useful programs as many as we want? And we could also configure Gestures through UL too. It means that you are able to launch frequent programs like screenshot or vjtoggletodayIIalpha whilst you move your figure upwards or downwards (we need rightwards and leftwards to scroll horizontally among screens.)

btw what does "flip animation" mean? is it like HTC cube or something?

But anywayz, wheee v1 is the remarkable start and wheee v2.5 is gonna super stunning!!

p.s.

i was helping my roomie to find a decent version of samsung omnia plugin but randomly got this website. It looked like that someone got the most sparkling feature of our wheee theme! :eek:

http://www.ppcsg.com/index.php?showtopic=100748
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bububang:
OMG! :eek:This version working for me.. duno what wrong with v2.5 :(

It load extremely fast without the "waiting animation come out"

Sleep time=0

Havent got time to test all the button.. but when i click on those button, i cant see any animation :confused: it just load like normal..

*animate=6

*animate=20

I guess flip animation is something like flip a book
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dewydewy:
Gotcha! That makes sense. How is your wheee v2.5 going on? :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
dewy, I meant that I wanted to be able to launch programs using some of the lower icons instead of only being able to use then for page swaps! My upwards and downwards gestures do other things :D

bubu, upgrade to the latest version of HomeScreen++ to see the animation, it just came out today! Nice to hear that it works.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dewydewy:
Got it! Erm...patiently waiting for "dewy version" :cool::D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pudifoot:
Nice going, Ufufu! You've really come a long way with your theme and the overall look just keeps getting better.

Like a few others I am still a bit hesitant to let go of UltimateLaunch, though. Partly because it's so easily customizable, partly because I paid for it and want value for my money. ;-) Not that I find it particularly difficult editing the HS++ xml file, it's just that it's so tedious... It's much easier to fire up UL's config tool and play with various shortcuts, icons, and tabs. Plus, WeatherPanel seems to work better with UL than with HS++ (at least with the theme I'm using).

At the moment I think I'm going to keep UL with HS++ in a tab and use your theme as a source of inspiration. But that might change once the much longed-for, talked-about killer version 2.5v2 aka dewy version is out... :-)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
You're right :p I can't fight that, UL will always be easier to customize.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bububang:
new version coming out! so fast.. :eek:

hope that tplug bug fixed :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
You mean the background drawing for animations? Yep, I hope that will be fixed too O_O I'll add backgrounds to everything when it's fixed!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Shouryu:
Congrats for this theme :) i'm using it since the first version come out ! i like the 2.5 but it's a bit hard to install on my ppc ! can ufufu post the background of the v2.5 (very nice :) ) ! why in the versione 2.5 have i to press the button on the backgroun for 1 sec to activate them ? is there a way to use them only with a tap (like in the previous versions) ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ufufu:
Thank you Shouryu! I will post the background, not right now because I an on my ppc, but later today. Yes, you can change it easily to respond on single taps, I made it that way coz I was always tapping it by accident :D just edit the xml and change "onhold" to "ontap" for the view 0 icons. Also change "index1" to "index" and "subindex1" to "subindex". If you have problems, send me your xml by pm and I will do it for you.

A question for dewy: you wanted 5 icons for your edition, right? What will those icons do? "dewy edition" is almost ready, right now it has: 2 application buttons, the standard launcher /settings button, the weather button and 1 more today plugin button. Is the today plugin you want a calendar? Should I change the second app button to yet another plugin page? Or if not, what program do you want it to launch?
