[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Phonatic:
Blue, Red, Black, and Green - Use your own backgrounds.

I made this so that users can use any 240x320 .png image as the background.

Just place the files into your xdashutdown folder.

When you want to change the background just copy your image, named background.png, into the folder.

I provided four colors to give more options.

Although this is maximized for use on qvga screens, you can use them for all screen resolutions, espcially 240x400 and 320x320.

Just copy your image, named background.png, into the folder.

If you do this, can you post a screen shot? I would like to see how it looks.

I will have time to edit the layout for you, in a few weeks, if needed.

Sorry, lately I don't have much time. Hopefully someone can beat me to it.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tomal:
Hi Dave,

Good work.

Pls add an OK button in the dialog or softkey for About screen. Otherwise you can't return from About in case the skin is configured for fullscreen.

Please also consider a toggle effect for sleep/wakeup function. For instance, I mapped my power button to bring the shutdown screen in short press. Then I activated sleep. It is actually doing the job. But then behaving abnormal in another short press.

Now my device suppose be wakeup in another "short press" but it either brings the shoutdown dialog or do not turn on at all. :( I have to do a hw reset in that case. For your information, I tried it in HD.

For anyone interested, here's the green one with a wqvga background.View attachment 240x400.zip

Just copy the files, not the folder, into your xdashutdown folder.

A screenshot would be nice. I don't use an emulator and am curious to see how they look.

Thanks for the kind words

If someone doesn't do it before I return in a couple of weeks, I will do it.

Maybe the new version will be out by then.:)

It should be usable as is. Just not as finger freindly, but at least you can use any background that you'de like.

Problems with TreoPro (GSM)

Hi - would be a great tool - to save Battery!

but wenn i push "shutdown" - the Treo shuts down but imediatly restarts - so it's like "restart"

is ist possible to repair this also for Treo Pro (HTC Panther / Palm 850 with GSM?)

greetings Paratwa
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] o.k.:
Hi Dave,

I see a lot of inquiries about adding a shutdown method for a specific device. In principle it is the biggest challenge in PPC software -- to make program that is working for some OEM platform running on an *arbitrary* number of those.

Would it be an option to "open" the configuration/skinning file a bit to associate a button with not only hardcoded action, but with an action calling some external link/exe command? In this way you provide quite an open architecture, enabled for adding specific shutdown/sleep/display off/dishwashing/whatever methods. In other words, you delegate the responsibility to provide a shutdown method to OEMs/community...

So it may work after principles of HTC Action Screen, but at the same time not have a drawback of need to maintain complicated registry settings.

Version 1.01 is released.

Change log:

1.01

-[BUG] Fixed command line bugs (would only shutdown)

-[TWK] Replaced Kernel IO Control with ExitWindowsEx(). This should ensure settings are saved upon restart / shutdown.

-[TWK] The Sleep / Light's out option simply overrides the action of the Sleep button to light's out - even if you have a seperate lights out button.

-[NEW] Ability to create a Long_press.lnk shortcut in \Windows\. Existing shortcut is backed up and restored if needed when removing the shortcut.

-[NEW] Various XML Changes, If you're new to skinning, just see post #2 and read up. If you're an existing skinner and want to see what's changed, read below.

Love this, but, even in version 1.01, shutdown button still gives the 'Cannot find a shutdown method...' on my Samsung Omnia i-910. Was this supposed to be fixed in this newer version or is this still on the todo list? :confused:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] peron:
I installed the program on my Diamond and it works fine, thank you!

A couple of notes:

- The skin made by gollum does not install correctly, it will create a folder called 'xdaShotdown' hence one has to move the files manually into the correct folder.

- Can the program have a menu where the skins can be selected?

To be frank I'm happy with the default skin but I'm sure there are people out there that like to switch skin depending on their mood and without going via file manager
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DaveShaw:
You'll have to ask Gollum to fix his skin ;).

Skin swapping is already planned.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] o.k.:
great skin. just one silly suggestion: maybe it would be more harmonic to have just a flat white cross on the cancel button instead of the "3d-like" red one? on the remaining buttons it is rather white on some background and flat

and would it be possible to get it for VGA? :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Hoffman07052:
I like it the way it is. It would be too much white in the buttons. A solid 3-D red makes the cancel button stand out more (less blending in confusion) and keeps the appearance symetrical.

The only thing I could ask for is a WQVGA version. Otherwise, it's my favorite of all the skins, so far. Great job. :cool:

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Areleos:
I am posting this not so much requesting that people make Dialers or Call Screens, but if one could point out where I can get them as I don't like the standard SE X1 Dialer and a Call Screen seemingly doesn't exist.

I have tried to install the Touch Flo 3D Dialer but to my disappointment it caused the 1% interval battery indicator to revert to its pre-6.5 state.

I have searched the forum for Dialers and Call Screens, but there are few results, so I was wondering if people could post the links with these in this thread.

When it downloaded all my contacts back to my phone, its saved them all with their last names shown first.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m.carroll:
Personally, I've been extremely disappointed (to say the least) with the boot splash for WM6.5 since I first saw it. Nonetheless, Microsoft has revealed (in a roundabout way) their new branding for "Windows Phone". They are holding an advertisement design contest through Zooppa (http://www.zooppa.com/contests/windows-phone) and have posted the official Windows Phone logos.

The "Windows Phone" is reportedly Microsoft's solution to the versioning issue that will arise when both WM7 and WM6.5 are available at the same time. WM7 is going to be marketed as the "premium" version of Windows Phone, whereas WM6.5 is going to be the "standard" version (not terms used by Microsoft, my naming just for an idea of features). Thus, WM6.5 is Windows Phone. But, WM7 is also Windows Phone.

I've replaced the WM6.5 Start Icon with the orb as shown in the screenshot below, and made a classily-minimalistic splash screen which uses he new logo (also shown below).

If anyone can think of any other uses for this logo, please let me know.

UPDATE: Updated with more resources, Cabs for VGA and QVGA. (Wide versions read the blue note below)

UPDATE 2: Fixed PNG+ICO+Splash zip to actually include ico's. Added Start Icon only Cab's.

Boot Splash for Raphael devices ONLY: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4266315&postcount=33

DESIGNED FOR USE ON QVGA/VGA DEVICES (for now!) For wide users, provide welcomehead.xx.jpg (maybe .png) (where xx is your dpi (192 for WVGA and 96 for WQVGA)) and I can whip something up for your device.

Based off of shellres.192.dll from build 21935 (6.5) and shellres.96.dll from build 23016 (6.5). Untested on WM6.1/6, use at your own risk.

If you're having issues, and are going to ask a question please provide a detailed description of the problem, along with device & rom information (What device? Who's ROM? ROM Build Number? etc.). This information is vital to figuring out the issue, and w/o it, we're just shooting in the dark.

For those who are interested, I've also uploaded the originals and some of my cut out images for your own customization.
