MobileSense - Espresso Mod

NOTE!!!!

VGA PORTRAIT ONLY!

WILL BREAK FUNCTIONALITY OF NAONG'S CUSTOMIZER!

BACKUP OF YOUR MOBILESHELL DIRECTORY AND REGISTRY IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

This is my personal setup so it works for me. I've got a few requests so I will share with you all for your enjoyment. Again, this is the way I like it, and won't be right for everyone. Naong has said he will work to incorporate these elements into his setup so everyone can enjoy. With the help of some other coders and skinners, this should be ready eventually for other resolutions. I can't provide a whole lot of support. Memory leak was a huge problem for me on my Sprint Diamond, but I believe I fixed it. It has to do with having mutiple background files for every page. Mine has two, a white and a dark. Again, you can't change the background with the customizer program. This can be installed over Naong's mod, or over a "clean" install of mobile shell.

I just wanna say CONGRATULATIONS for this marvelous work :)

This MS interface is the best thing i've put onto my Omnia so far,

i'm looking at many other UIs but i have a strong feeling that i won't stop using this til i change my phone, or at least if Win7 brings some better changes,

this is simply amazing :)

I run SPB Shell 3.5.3 original with this Sense UI of yours,

i have to say that i have NO memory problems (it's still 40mb free with around 20 more apps added to my device), no weather updating problems, no icon problems, it's pretty damn fast and it's great for using it!!

But i still have the problems with changing background of carousel sheets, and changing themes also :( Yes, i've installed your newest version where it's said that these bugs are fixed, i followed your instrucions from that "Help" menu, i also followed all of the instructions you gave in your post #187 and still, that metallic thing won't go away. And i'm sure this masterpiece would look MUCH better with the dark theme, so,

if you have any more tips on how to make the dark theme work,

i'd be helpful a lot cuz i LOVE this thing of yours!!!

Thanks once more and keep up the great work :cool:
[Windows Mobile Themes] mikentucson:
Thanks mtstmp. i've been going thru code for days now trying to clean it up. your version works great on my wvga on a clean install! and no rush on those status icons. just whenever you get a chance :)

edit:

with a clean rom on my tilt2 i have 120mb free ram. with mobilesense it dropped down to 92mb free.

with a clean rom and new install of mobile shell and mtstmp's mods its running strong at 110mb free!

Taskbar

Hi Naong and other experts,

I attach my screen image, the Startbar/Taskbar still the same windows default, any suggestion how to get Shell or MobileSense override it?

I'm not technical expert or professional, your kind support much appreciated.

Suresh
[Windows Mobile Themes] mtstmp:
that's how mobile shell was designed. there was an app somewhere called kill start or somethin like that. try that.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ilordvader:
Where is the Background Changer in this ?

I have Installed the software how do i find the changer ?

Please
[Windows Mobile Themes] sureshnv:
Taskbar/Startbar

You mean in Setting -> Mobile Shell -->Override Start --> Yes/NO, I have chosen YES.

The taskbar/startbar am referring is the Top line with Windows Logo; Start ; Blue tooth Icon, Signal, battery, etc., they are the same old Default Windows.

If they is a way to change/over ride it, please advise.

Thanks for your support MTSTMP

[Windows Mobile Themes] Genghis1:
Great stuff! Thanks a lot! I set everything the way I wanted, now I'm just wondering if it would be possible to have android status icons (va_status) that could cound messages, mails and missed calls because the one presented here can't count things. If not, could anyone attach original va_status here :)

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Themes] N-tchbl:
Go to SPB Launcher in your carousel

and find a "Theme" option there, but the one that belongs to Shell, not the Windows one with the palette,

get inside and choose the black theme, you won't see the upper bar anymore it will all be dark, with only system icons on the right side that u cannot delete anyway ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] N-tchbl:
can someone explain at least and finally how to change the metallic background to the dark one?! :)

seems like after all of the fixes and everything it's still a mission impossible to most of us... pity.
[Windows Mobile Themes] sureshnv:
Sorry to bother you again MTSTMP, am unable to run toggle...exe on my Win7 (PC as well as Notebook), any suggestions?

Suresh
[Windows Mobile Themes] sureshnv:
I'm unable to see any SHELL Themes there, I can see Pallette stuff, I can see Themes folder in SPBShell Folder, any suggestion, how to activate/use it?

Sorry to ask something very stupid.

[Windows Mobile Themes] m3latino:
Try this :

1. Run SenseConfig.

2. Switch tab to [Images]

3. Add images you want to change.

4. Switch tab to [Themes]

5. Add new theme.

6. Set portrait and landscape image.

7. Switch tab to [Panel Settings]

---- Now check each box that you want to have the black color. Do not put a check next to the items that don't have a color next to it.

8. Set theme by touching and holding the screen till you see a menu where it has that option.

9. Apply settings. [Menu - Apply]

10. Done.

I was stuck between 7 & 8 but I just figured it out.
[Windows Mobile Themes] djsolidsnake86:
wqvga +1 please
[Windows Mobile Themes] Genghis1:
I made android like status icons, with green circle over icons, counting number of email, messages, missed calls and voice messages. I used va_status.dat that mtstmp made and posted in this thread, and added green circle with counters in center.
[Windows Mobile Themes] N-tchbl:
That attachment picture you put is exactly where my thoughts were leading you to,

but i can't see that you have the Black colour option in the SPBShell themes panel, and that's what you need. :(

Which version of Shell are you using with this Sense UI?

What i do is choose the black option from that menu that you put in the attachment and it looks compact, with no line on the top of the screen, but i never saw that it gives you no black option :(

Did you try to reinstall SPB? There has to be that black option :/

@m3latino

Thanks dear, this has saved me finally! :)

Was stucked between 7 & 8 also, and also i didnt know that tapping and holding the screen in the Panel settings is meant for setting the themes,

instead of that i was checking the fields i wanted to change and going back to Themes, choosing one and clicking Menu/Apply.

This was great, finally.. thanks! :cool:

After getting tired of no landscape support for Manilla I thought I wuold try mobile shell again but always hated the way it looked.

I stumbled into this today and just installed it and its AWESOME!! I just wanted to say thank you for your hard work and sharing!! Very impressive sir!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Clauthio:
Where you make download the this wallpaper and icons (contacts, favorits..) and taskbar? :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] murielt:
I also had this problem when first installing this add-on. Don't ask me how, but reinstalling mobile shell from scratch solved the whole thing.... (have the cab in a folder on my SD, ran it and after installing and a soft reset, Mobile Shell didn't only came back to normal, but WITH the new widgets as well!).

Love the new look! Kudos to naong for putting this together and to all the other people involved in the programming.

Display all messed up on LG Expo

I tried to install this today and what I saw was that almost every custom screen was displaying gadgets and buttoms much smaller than they should be and they were all on top of each other over the screen.

I installed the WVGA version so not sure what is wrong here. I have the latest version of SPB shell running on 6.5.
[Windows Mobile Themes] moxycalt:
the wallpaper is down below, the icons are an app called Phonex from iconsoft, real nice one at that, and the taskbar is from a theme called dusk you can find here on xda, but it's not for omnia, you can find an omnia version here....

As far as the SMS 3D view function, just tap and hold on the SMS icon and then the "default action" button to change that button from activating the 3D function to activating your default SMS software on your phone (the phone's regular SMS program, Flexmail, etc.).

Hope this tidbit helped.

Could you please make the same icons but without the text underneath? I tried, but if i use my modified va_status.dat i get no icons at all. so obviously i did something wrong...

It works just fine for me. Unpack va_status.zip. Copy va_status.dat to program files/spb mobile shell dir. Restart mobile shell. That's what I did and it works just fine.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Clauthio:
dont know.. but, in my omnia not work..

I have SPB mobile shell 3.5.3 build 9885, and the mobilesense..

I unzip file, and copied the va_status.dat to sbp mobile shell folder.. and softreset.. and not work :(:( Can help me?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Genghis1:
Here's what I'm trying to change.

Everything looks great but memory consumption on my HTC Diamond is too high. When GenY win boots, consumption is 41-43% , when clean spb mobile shell starts, it's about 52-55% but when mobile sense spb mobile shell starts, memory consumption is about 67-70% which is too high because other heavy programs are running very slow or can't at all (e.g. gps sw). I tried to remove all my widgets thinking that it will free some memory but i't did only 1-2%. What is eating my memory, and how can I fix it?

Only things I really need/like:

- menu bar (sence like)

- some widgets (weather, clock, transparent places...)

I think that rest of the theme is really heavy and that it's eating memory a lot, but maybe I'm wrong...

I found this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4827817&postcount=917 but it is not as nice and smooth as MobileSense...
[Windows Mobile Themes] Clauthio:
People, i want put this bar in spb mobile shell / mobile sense:

How a make this?
[Windows Mobile Themes] moxycalt:
You need a qa_status file not a va, cause your device is wqvga
[Windows Mobile Themes] Clauthio:
where can I find the qa_status?
[Windows Mobile Themes] moxycalt:
actually if it's for the andoid notifications icons...I don't know. Someone would have to make them for us omnia users.....sorry.

hi Mtstmp - thanks for your great work. I am really liking the new mod but how do you get the contact widget (top right corner above)?
[Windows Mobile Themes] djsolidsnake86:
can't wait :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mtstmp:
first add a shorcut widget, with no target. just click shortcut widget and then back right away. then change the skin to the last option, mobilesense contact panel. then add your contact widgets with the skins of mobile sense small and mobilesense text.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Ruasd:
Can any do a .cab only with this widgets?

p.s I didn't use your alt. backgrounds, is this the reason?
[Windows Mobile Themes] StupidCid:

Very good work. best skin i"ve seen in a while. thank you for your works:D

[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
You did the hard part, I didn't have to do much...
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
I dug into it a little, can't find anything that is causing your problem. Mine starts at 53% and creeps to about 65% after using but then stays around 65% for hours on end.
[Windows Mobile Themes] kalitexnis16590@gmail.com:
Sorry...:(my problem solved.After i installed this skin i did a soft reset end i had that problem,but now after a second soft reset i have no problems at all...I can not explain it.:confused:Now the memory stays the same after a while and the whole device seems faster...:)Thanks so much for this skin, i love it.It's so beautiful as the original and without memory issues.;)

QWGA REQUIRED !!!

looks nice..I´m already using the sence theme and like this more, but I´munfortunately user of TyTN II, so the question is - would you be so kind and make it for QWGA?

I´m sure that more would use it...
[Windows Mobile Themes] saintman2:
looking forward, thanx
[Windows Mobile Themes] Genghis1:
I solved memory consumption problems on my xda Diamond. I'm using beautifull mtstmp skin, but i changed some things. I'll post screenshots in a few days. I analysed cab files, and the greatest memory eating beast is the sense weather widget (big nice pics). I removed it, but some other things and now when my Diamond boots, 53-54% of memory is used. After few hours, ~60% (58-61) is used and it's been like that almost two days now.

Instead of sense weather widget, I'm using standard MobileShell widget (small one) and it is not as nice as big shiny sense one is, but it is ok and memory consumption is a lot lower which is more important for me.

It would be great if someone could post nice looking weather widget that is not as hungry as this one.

Thank you all for the hard work!

This thread is really something. These skins mzde mobile sense far better and it is now my best mobile ui experience!

Thanks

how can i fixed it?thank you!

If you are running a HTC phone with 6.5 ROM. It is the new version of Mobile Shell that does that. In fixing issues with the dialer they messed that up. You can still use MS task manager thou.

Restore settings in SPB Mobile Shell.

Now I restored settings this way: .mso file is regular .zip and then you can browse in it (Winzip, Total commander). Extract file settings.reg and import it to registry on pda. For example by Dotfred's TaskManager (http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm). All seems to be OK after restore.
[Windows Mobile Themes] stevennekens:
I tried this but could only use the 'standard' widgets, not the others. I can select them in the menu but the preview doesn't show any difference in icon. When I press the 'V', the widget doesn't change. When I select it again, the setting has jumped back to the standard one.

I use a TD2, stock (Dutch) 6.5 ROM and MS 3.5.3.

Any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Themes] DC_Mellid:
I cant install the newer widgets either. Accidentally deleted my calender :(
