how bout the thermostat widget???
[Windows Mobile Themes] skinnypupp:
Can someone help me find a way to install ONLY the Sense-style clock/weather widget, like you see in several of the addon packs people show here? That's all I really want changed with MS3.5, so if you know how, please help me!

Thanks!

Onymous/MSkip

First off thanks for the great work.. Since I updated to SPB MS3.5.1 I also updated your most recent clockworks (dtd 21Nov) and MSkips Ultimate-Elegance them (dtd 12Nov). I cannot align the clockworks clocks with the stock clock widgets or MSKips clock widgets. for example I liked to make a clockworks clock with the big pro clock, but the center of the clock hands don't line up. They lined up in the previous version with MS3.0. I not sure the culprit but I think its in the clock works widgets. Oh and I'm running a qvga screen.

TIA

[Windows Mobile Themes] moxycalt:
First the clock and the weather widgets are 2 seperate widgets, one over the other.....and second, just go here http://www.mobilecustom.fr/forum/index.php/topic,2403.0.html

and injecte the sence widgets with the widget injector, you will have just a few widgets more.....in bonus.
[Windows Mobile Themes] skinnypupp:
Thanks for your help

That clock doesn't look right though.. The font is not aligned correctly :(

Sense addon for Mskips Pro Plus Ultimate V2 VGA and WVGA only

This is a theme addon for Mskip's ProPlus Ultimate V2 (VGA and WVGA ONLY)The only thing that may not work for VGA is the new weather icons on the weather page itself. You may have to revert back to the originals for weather. I do not have any way of testing it. The setup is pretty easy I will explain more about that in the next 2 paragraphs. The widgets are all Mskip's except the clock background I made. The Backlight icons came from the Mstmp Titanium theme. The analog clock and the weather icons came from the HTC Pure theme by Vincent 316 at mobilecustom forum. The spb menu icons came from the Sence 3.5 theme by chpoubs. The status icons came from the iDiamond theme by chpoubs, apothehouse and jeje 1000.

This is a two page setup only unless you want to make or use you own wallpaper, then you set it up how you like. You will see that the last two pictures below show the edit layout screen to show the setup. The bottom black area has two text only buttons of your choice. They can be different on each page. The area just above that is part of the wallpaper so you need to use the invisible small widget for these. The shortcuts area above that are just that shortcuts using the Medium(big icon) option. The digital clock semitransparent background is in the backing panels catagory and it takes the place of the Mskips large black backing panel. The HTC Pure analog clock takes the place of the proplus1 large analog clock. The weather widget by the digital clock is the simple widget for weather it replaces the stock one. The top curtain is part of the wallpaper also with the date widget inserted in it.

You need to first install Mskips ProPlus Ultimate V2(found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=566679) and then copy my files to spb mobile shell directory. There is one reg edit that needs to be made also. For some reason spb only lets you select odd number of pages as I mentioned earlier this a two page only setup. The reg edit is attached also or you can manually do it by going to hklm\software\spb software house2\spb mobile shell\widgets\homescreen\page count, change to 2. Of course you will need to soft reset for the changes to take effect. I would like to give most of the credit for this to Mskip, He is doing some cool stuff with Mobile Shell.

Keith,

Great update/add on.

The weather and clock widgets work fine on VGA/WVGA.

I have a HTC Touch HD.

Is there any chance you can make a big weather widget ( to replace the "Proplus Standard Medium" ) for the today screen ?

The small ones you have made are great :

Hi all
[Windows Mobile Themes] rezam:
Dear Friends

I have some question that I couldn't find the answer with Search:

1- SPB mobile shell 3.5 doesn't work with RealVGA, I search in this forum more and more and this is no answer.

Please someone tell me is there a trick to run SPB 3.5 in RealVGA mode?

2- I want to change the header Icons on my Phone, (Antena bar, GPRS and ... ) What can I have to do ?

like these :

or:

or other ...

3- Is there a way to hide the status bar and have full screen spb mobile shell? ( With startmenu toggler it become hide but some Icons like anten and ... also become invisible :-( )

Many thanks for your answers
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
The buttons in the bottom curtain and fake taskbar are part of the wallpaper. I tried to do a three page and could not get the icons to line up when swiping from page to page.

I already have ProPlus Ultimate V2 instaled and set up the way I like, by adding this addon, will this change my original theme layout, or can I keep what I have and only use elements like icons, new clock etc, from this addon?

Hope it makes sense :o
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
It won't change anything you have already setup unless you are using the items that I replaced, which were mentioned in the original post. The icons just above the softkey bar are part of the wallpaper.
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
Mskip made the menubar in V2 accessible at the top left and right of the scrren below the taskbar. look at the first page of mskip proplus ultimate thread for visual understanding.
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
I no longer have qvga device to test with. someone who has the know how and qvga device will probably do it soon. It is not that much to change most of it is already in mskips work.

SMS/Text Message Preview Panel?

I am looking for an SMS preview panel widget for SPB 3.5. I've stumbled across a couple before, but can no longer locate them. It's similar to the SMS preview as seen on the HTC Hero or Palm Pre. Basically you can stick it on one of your blank panels in SPB Mobile Shell. Any input is appreciated! :)

[Windows Mobile Themes] AlienHairball:
Taken from the Release History link on that same page:

Version 3.5.2 (Dec 09, 2009):

* Fixed issue with SMS opening on HTC HD2

* Fixed issue with alarms on HTC HD2

* Fixed issue with settings opening on HTC Windows Mobile 6.5 devices

* Backlight support for new devices

* Added a possibility to send MMS from an unnamed calllog entry

So nothing exciting and mostly bugfixes. Always good to see they are actively working on it though.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
You wont get any help at all talking like that mate.
[Windows Mobile Themes] hdaackda:
when you don't bother to read simple stuff like instructions / faq, no wonder you think of hard work as crap!
[Windows Mobile Themes] hdaackda:
+1 to that... that would be nice...
[Windows Mobile Themes] epdm2be:
FAQ???

Look all it "should" take to uninstall anything is going to Settings -> Remove Programs -> select the app you want to remove, click to remove and away it goes.

Which is what I did first.

Then since the spinning wheel took forever I reset my device (Omnia I900) and tried with MemMaid. To no avail.

Sure I read some o/t registry hasle that could be done to remove it. But that's NOT the way things are supposed to work on Windows Mobile.

In the end I (think) managed to remove it by first uninstall SPB Mobile shell, then retry to uninstall those add-ons (which again displayed the spinning wheel) but after some reset it apeared to be gone. I manually deleted some files which belonged to the proces and gone I think it was.

I'm sure some stuff will probably be left behind but since I'm not willing to hard reset my phone it'll have to do for now.

This is definitly NOT my favourite.

Weird thing is that other programmers managed to get a fully working M2D for Omnia that IS able to properly uninstall while this...

This experience left me with no confidence mr. Mskips skills. Sorry mate, but you'll have to do better to convince me. Nonetheless I'm sure others will be happy with the work you've done. Particularly designwise. I do appreciate that. But this not for me (or my device). I've reverted back to standard skins and decided NOT to fool around with Mobile shell.

It seems Khuanchai's M2D can stand a lot more "abuse" than tampering with MS3.5

I do have to thank you for your tip regarding adding a taskmanager carousel screen. After which I started this. Didn't try anything else after this misadventure.

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Themes] chopper the dog:
a hug for mskip is in order. its called patience. set your phone power setting to "none" on external power plug it in and hit uninstall and go make a cup of tea. a spinning wheel is a good thing. jeeeeze.
[Windows Mobile Themes] wickedbird98:
I had similar experiences with elegance on my omnia but i just did a hard reset and started over with proplus ultimate...ive had problems that caused me 2 do hard resets b4 so i wasnt too worried bout it...I know mskip doesnt have access to every phone made so not everythings gonna work perfect on every phone...keep up the awesome work mskip...i completely support your work and all your efforts
[Windows Mobile Themes] donnaw:
You know it takes a lot of patience to play around with modding your phone using unofficial apps. I spent a couple of years lurking around here - just reading and learning before I tried to do too much. Even then I really appreciated all the amazing work these guys do for free. No matter how adversely something may affect your phone it is not right to come down on the dev who made the hack. All these apps/hacks are to be used at your own risk.

One thing I did invest in is a good backup program (I use SPB backup but there are others). I keep a good backup of my phone - clean with no mods, and a clean with the mods I like and work well. That way if I put something on that doesn't work all I have to do is restore.

Since you seem to be a very impatient person seem you have 2 choices:

1) do as I do and keep backups just in case

2) Stay with the stock build and paid apps

Either way please use some manners. People here will give all the support you need if you just ask nicely. No need to get snippy. Everyone is just here to make a really good community work really well.

I think the best solution for epdm2be is tohard reset TWICE:

- one for the phone

- one for the human

Thanks a lot for MSkip and vostradamus for all your great job ...
[Windows Mobile Themes] AlienHairball:
What he said. :)

MSkip's work has helped improve my device experience for as long as I've been using MobileShell 3 and up. Vostradamus has more widgets than I know what to do with lol. Great work guys.

And yes, some versions back I had the same uninstall problems with one of MSkip's packs, but it was a known potential issue clearly stated up front. I mean comes on - these are unofficial mods. How could there ever be a guarantee with something like this? :rolleyes:

Keep up the good work guys. It's MUCH appreciated.

[Windows Mobile Themes] 666cin:
Which *.dat file in SPB folder contains icon "Soft Reset". I'm looking for it all the time and I can't find this icon.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
I have update my FAQ as well as the 1st post on all my ProPlus Themes to explain that it does take around 7 or 8 minutes at least to uninstall because of the number of sheer number of widgets and the integration of ProPlus into Mobile Shell.

If anyone is trying to uninstall ProPlus then as long as you have a timer on the screen then its trying to take it off. Only when you have a message pop up on the screen will you know whether it has failed or been successful.

If the uninstall process fails then the manual method will take it off if done properly as instructed.

If you have no patience or understanding (im not a programmer and have put my packs together as best I can so that anyone can install them easily) then dont try to install mods in the first place.

Hopefully this will stop people moaning that they cant take off something which they got for free in the first place :rolleyes:

Hi all,

Have searched all over for this (maybe just the wrong keywords?) but I just installed Mskips ultimate v2 with the newest version of SPS MS (3.5.2). The one problem I am having is that the mobile shell call log or call history appears to be blank. When I scroll down the list I can see the call information when each call is highlighted, but otherwise they're blank. I looks like the problem is that it's displaying a black font on a black background. Any help would be appreciated.

Tim
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Did you notice the same problem with 3.5.1? I havent installed the newer version yet as there are no significant bug fixes for my phone but I dont think it would be down to that. Can you try uninstalling V2 and Mobile Shell and then install JUST Mobile Shell and check the call log and call history. Then install V2 and check again to verify the problem. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bootheresa:
I have the exact same problem. If you tap on blank box it goes gray and you can the see the the text is in black. Black on black. But not sure where the issue is on MS or V2. I also have 3.5.2.

This is gonna sound dumb but.... I don't know these blackstorm weather icons :p where can I find them? :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
I can make them the only problem is space. The reason I havent added any large weather widgets to my packs is that because of the extra night time icons (which half the people dont ever get to see) the file sizes for the large weather widget is through the roof. Around 5MB for VGA just for the 1 widget. I will have a look at them though as they are nice looking icons
[Windows Mobile Themes] Peterjac:
Hi,

You can view them on Change Skins page, they have been part of his themes for some time.

I would also like to see them as weather skins.

Peter
[Windows Mobile Themes] bootheresa:
Ok, now after several hours of installs and uninstalls I can say if your going to use any theme at all DO NOT INSTALL 3.5.2. No matter whose theme you use it will turn call log font black and unreadable. All thou a fresh install of MS has white font after installing any theme (mskip's, HTC Pure Style, Etc) it turns call log font black. Either stay away from upgrade or don't use a theme. This is very strange , but definitely TRUE.

BOO B)
[Windows Mobile Themes] wickedbird98:
i can understand that...i didnt realize the large ones took so much space...i only asked cuz i have the large softstyle icon and i just dont care for it as much...i dont need the large ones too badly but i would love to have small and medium blackstorm icons...its up to u guys if u want to make them..

i only ask cuz i like those but dont like changeskin enough...it provides lots of options but doesnt allow the full customization the way that mskips & vostradamus' works provide.

thanks 2 the both of U
