[Windows Mobile Themes] Nullstring:
I have not yet updated that theme to work on WM6.5/.x

but watch this thread I might update that theme soon
[Windows Mobile Themes] Vladimirus:
The HTC Amaze 4G Bubble Messages theme will work in wm 6.5 but I lose the date and time info. It's there, but out of view as it is above the "papered" in/out so I don't see it. I saw a glimpse of it once so that is how I know it's there. Just too high up above the body of the text. I don't know what to change in the css files because I don't know what the info there means or what it relates to.

Confusing SMS Date [AND,OR] Time Stamp on WM 6.1 and 6.5 ONLY (Not 6.5.x)

Hi all,

1st of all, sorry for bringing this thread up again. I need help on a question which although it was asked a couple of times before in this thread, however, no one have actually gave a straight or exact answer to that question. It is also worth to note that after reading through 95 pages and 945 replies of this thread, I really hope to get some enlightment on the issue at hand. Also, be fore-warned that this is going to be a long question/reply to this thread and I do apologize for that as it is vital to give as much information as possible...no matter how simple problem might be.

Before I proceed with my question, it is good to know which phone and Windows Mobile version that I'm currently using so that you guys can help me better.

Phone Brand and Model: HTC Touch 2

ROM: Stock or Original HTC Released ROM (RUU_Mega_hTC_Asia_SEA_WWE_1.37.728.3_Radio_Signed_61.55t.25.38_3.54.25.25_Ship.exe)

Windows Mobile Version: 6.5

Plugin: All Disabled (HTC Sense, HTC Messaging etc.. all disabled)

SMS Skin downloaded and installed: Uppy's iPhone Skin for WM 6.5 (Ported over from Mintishhippo iPhone Skin)

I have downloaded and installed the iPhone skin from Uppy and I must say that I'm very impressed by the skin which is exactly what I want. However, there is still one problem that bugs me.

1. The threaded SMS seems to display the TIME ONLY for those message sent and recieved on the same day

and

2. DATE ONLY for those that are sent and recieved on different days. I'll follow up with some illustrations for you guys to get a better picture. All timestamps stated below are GMT +8.

ROM Version:

Date and Time set on WM6.5 to 24 Febuary 2012, 11.10pm:

Test SMS for Sent and Received on 24 Febuary 2012 (with Uppy's iPhone SMS Skin installed):

Date and Time set on WM6.5 to 25 Febuary 2012, 11.33PM:

Test SMS for Sent and Received on 25 Febuary 2012

As you can see from the screenshots that I have provided, is clearly stated that any messages sent and recieved on the same day will only show the time while any messages sent and recieved on different days will only show the date.

I've went through files like thread_sms.htm, thread_style.css and iframe_style.css but could not anything with regards to display of date or time for SMS. I have also went through other apps for WM6.5 but those are really not as close as compared to SMS Skin. I saw that it is possible on WM6.5.x like as shown in the screenshot below:

So is there really any way that I can get WM6.5 to display the time

AND

date for all SMS no matter which day it was recieved or sent on?

Could it be just a simple editing of the registry or a patch? Anyone who knows how to make it possible?

P.S I know that upgrading to WM6.5.x would be the best solution possible but I would like to stick to WM6.5 as much possible due to something about 6.5.x that I don't really like.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Digistras:
Bump for today!

Bump for today!

Need links

Sorry for bumping such old thread, but i hoped that someone can upload again skins for 6.5.x winmo, or tell me where can i dl it, as i dont see it on first page like it says

thanks in advance :D

3-Screen scrolls halfway up (post #69) seems to be fixed.

4-Long sms issues (post #43) problem : Not tested yet.

This application is wonderfull. It will get better if the contact photo problem is fixed :)

Many thanks for your great wrok. Waiting new versions :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] 1999TL:
can't wait to try out the update today either.
[Windows Mobile Themes] scottter:
How do i add a time/date stamp to the manilla version?

EDIT: NVM, i accidentally deleted that when i was trying to minimalize the whole thing.

now i just get to find out what i can can do to get time date stamp and only the contact name at the top.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mintishhippo:
Hello there!

I love this app (i guess you could call it that), anyways i had been waiting for this for a long time. To help with development I have created an iPhone theme hope you guys like it :) I will post it as soon as I get home.
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
great!

sweet. I am using iphonetoday- so i will be excited to see what you have come up with.
[Windows Mobile Themes] kakadiya:
downloaded file shows corrupted.... anyone having same prob???
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
What do you mean by "shows corrupted"?
[Windows Mobile Themes] lolz mclollerson:
Everything works perfectly, however the contact photo only shows up intermittently.

Thanks for your hard work!
[Windows Mobile Themes] renee613:
astronaut,

are there any plans to provide smiley support similar to smileysms/vito? thanks again for your hard work and i look forward to ur future releases.

iPhone Skin

Ok so here is the iPhone skin I made. Its based off the Win7 skin. The one problem is that I cant seem to get the background to work properly, you can see this in the screenshot. It shows up as just a bar and doesn't fill up the whole area, strange :confused:. Anyways just coppy all the files into your Windows folder cuz i suck at making .cab files.
[Windows Mobile Themes] scottter:
any chance of a 615 manilla skin?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mccune:
Nice thread. Been testing Astronout Manila SMS Skin v0.79.653 on my TouchPro2 running a WM6.1 ROM.

Some things I've noticed:

- A few contact photos are shown. But most show me the UnknownContact photo.

- In the editing field there is a black line. When you type it's right between two lines.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Napzter:
Hello mintishhippo,

i´m looking for these gray manila-like scrollbars, you can see on your picture (iphone skin).

Do you have the .png's for the vertikal and horizontal scrollbars including all those arrows? I think they should be into the windows folder or if you installed a skin, under "My Documents", "Themes", and then under the Theme's name. (or perhaps you can upload the complete theme)

Please, this would be really nice.

I thank you very much.

Napzter
[Windows Mobile Themes] Alfa Kenny One:
Straight outta heaven :D thanks for this great piece of ART!!!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] richardsoffice:
works well

Skin v0.7.615 works well . . .in fact very well on my HTC Diamond touch with Win 6.1 :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mintishhippo:
No problem here is the theme i use. Sorry to whoever made it cuz i dont remember where its from. However I'm not sure if this theme includes scroll bars if not then let me know and I'll try again.
[Windows Mobile Themes] yunzhongxue:
so beautiful,tks
[Windows Mobile Themes] ascssmith:
Just installed on my HTC Imagio, wm6.5, spb 3.5.2, works great, contact pictures don't show up, but I'm happy with the layout and the looks, great gift....:D
[Windows Mobile Themes] mintishhippo:
Ok so I have descovered a few things just by experimenting.

First, I found that since the text bubbles are bound to thier respective sides, you can get a greater separation of bubbles if you remove your scrollbar.

Second I have found that the problem I described for the iPhone skin I made:

was never a problem after all. It was actualy just my own lazyness. What had happened was that I had to change the .css file so that it would look for a .png insted of a whatever it was before. I had actualy already changed it when I uploaded the files here but never changed it on my device. :p
[Windows Mobile Themes] marko68:
Can I use this beautiful software on my HTC HD2 with sense?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mintishhippo:
it should work on the HD2 however it may not function correctly unless you have uilda 6.5.1 or higher build
[Windows Mobile Themes] Astronout:
Nope, sorry... That just isn't possible, much to my regret. But it would be awesome :)

Yes sir!

Hehe, that's happened to me as well quite a few times now :p Love your iPhone skin! I'll cab it up for you and put in the first post, if you post the latest version. And I'll add my latest fixes too it (and show it to you, of course).

Aye aye! But only if you have HTC Sense messaging disabled and use the standard Windows Mobile threaded messaging app.

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

I promised to release a new (major) version a few days ago. I have been able to fix a lot of stuff, but that induced new problems. Hopefully ... tomorrow ... :cool:
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
can you help me?

Can you point me to the portion you edit to remove the scrollbar? And in which file (iframe_style.css, thread_style.css, or thread_sms.htm) . I am using the older version (75.615) bc it works better for me on my device. I am a noob (disregard the "senior member" mumbo jumbo) so i need step by step instruction.

thanks if you can. understand if you can't.
[Windows Mobile Themes] tommia:
im using 23090 rom on my monia i910. but when i open it up i have 2 gray bars. i dont know what happend. but is it fixable? for both manila and windows 7 version
[Windows Mobile Themes] cPT.cAPSLOCK:
This simply is epic.

Thanks for the .cab, and even more thanks for the explanation!

I know a fair share about CSS and HTML, though unfortunately I'm not experienced with this render engine's limitations and phailures.

I might give it a shot, but untill then I will use your stunningly beautifull manilla cab ^^

Seriously, that **** is stylish
[Windows Mobile Themes] mintishhippo:
Oh I meant removing scroll bars globally, as in for every application. If you still want to do this all you have to do is change a registry setting in your phone. It is HKey_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\ and you will find cyHScr (Horizontal Scrollbars) and cxVScr (Vertical scrollbars). Change their values to zero and it will remove your scrollbars. I would recommend you do this anyways as it will give you a smother scrolling experience.
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
so what do you do if you are in a program and you need to scroll and there are no scrollbars? I mean like PHM Reg Editor for instance was not designed for a touch screen (i guess).

Astronout Win7 SMS Skin v0.75.615.cab can not work with my own rom(20755 wm6.1)

[Windows Mobile Themes] ninja4hire:
My new SMS skin

Hey Everyone!!

I have been working on a new sms skin to put in my Omnia 2 rom. It's based of course off of the awesome work Astronout did and the previous sms skin I made for Maisonpulaski HERE.

It still needs some fine tuning (gotta get the text right), but once I'm done I will ask Astronout to cab it for me. Every time I make a cab, it won't install things in the windows directory for some reason.

I also will make some more color choices like the ones I made on this POST.
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
looking good man. look forward to seeing the finished project. I am hoping Astronaut post his new developments soon as well.
[Windows Mobile Themes] R3dD3vil:
Installed the cab on my HD2 but htc messages are the same stock colours :( is this only for standard wm sms?
[Windows Mobile Themes] marko68:
It works only if you have HTC Sense messaging disabled and use the standard Windows Mobile threaded messaging app.
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
yes. it is only for standard wm sms.
[Windows Mobile Themes] marko68:
Astronout, I have a question for you:

Could be possible to have the same beautiful win7 skin also for HTC messaging tool?

Because i love your work but also i like the way of work of htc messaging.....
[Windows Mobile Themes] hebbe:
so, how can i disable manila messaging in order to use this beautiful, fantastic piece of work? thanks for your help :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] mintishhippo:
Hey Astronaut,

WOuld it be possable to skin the area where you type messages? I was also wondering if it would be possable to remove the top bar and combine it with the middle frame do you only see it if you scroll to the top of the page?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rynsuloth:
quick question: on my wm 6.1 the treaded sms only show the date, not the time.

will this little cute enhancement show me the time?

edit: the windows 7 version
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
time and date

for me 75615 shows the time (no date) and 79653 did not show time or date. but the developer said he was coming out with something new "soon".
[Windows Mobile Themes] nickh21:
Will this work for the samsung omnia i910 (WQVGA)???:D:D
[Windows Mobile Themes] smileymeep:
Once you disable HTC messaging, do you use the messaging tab to get to the wm threaded messaging app, or is there another way?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Warrow:
Great App! Thanks....gives it the edge!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Astronout:
No, sorry, that's not possible. At least, I can't do it :)

Regarding question 1: I am still working on that, but so far it has been able to withstand all my tries :( It is an ActiveX element, which is skinnable through CSS. But is has its own declarations and properties, which unfortunately are not documented.

With respect to Q2: Yes, that is possible.

Versions xx.615 never show the time, only the date. This is an inherent consequence of WM6.1 and 6.5 and is not solvable. New versions are indeed here soon: now :D

Yes sir :)

Well, I use the messaging tab to go to the standard WM sms. Usually it is also accessible via the start menu.

:rolleyes:

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

Jej! Finally! new versions! See the changelog and cabs in the first post!

Also, a Manila version for WM6.1 and 6.5 is finally here!

Hopefully, this fixes all major and common problems, so I can turn to creating new themes now!

Enjoy!
[Windows Mobile Themes] O.a.T.:
Excellent. Working great, as usual on my Diamond w/own custom 6.5-based Titanium rom. No donate button?
[Windows Mobile Themes] g2tl:
Hmm, I've completely uninstalled the previous version, yet I still get the double scrolling bars.

I'm using a variant of energy rom on a Fuze, 23518 (6.5.5)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Astronout:
This is particularly odd, 'cause I'm also running the 23518 Energy Rom on a Touch Pro. Would you mind sending a screenshot?

Chs
[Windows Mobile Themes] g2tl:
Uh oh, do I sense a hard reset coming? :/
[Windows Mobile Themes] Astronout:
*edit* i was wrong
[Windows Mobile Themes] g2tl:
So does this mean I should wait for the next version? Anything you'd like me to test out?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Astronout:
Yep, you should wait until the next version!

Oh, wait, here it is already! :p Your own personal version. No need to uninstall the previous one, just install this one and try it.

I do have a question for you. In your screenshot, what is that number below the name of the contact and above the word conversation. Is that a telephone number? And the name is the name of your contact? It is kind of odd that two lines are displayed, while only one should be there :confused:

Chs
[Windows Mobile Themes] g2tl:
Nope, that doesn't work either.

I just noticed the top, and yeah, it looks different from your screenshot. The top is contact name while the bottom is my number. Could that be the reason? I don't think I enabled any tweaks to make that happen...
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
well here is a screenshot from when i was using xx.615. There is a time stamp. SO did you mean that they show the time and not the date?
[Windows Mobile Themes] yunzhongxue:
yeah,updated,thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] bjcolema:
Ok...I never had the double scroll bars until this latest version. I went back to 79, and no double scroll bars.

Kaiser

Kaiser Touch Rom 23519 (com3)
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
That is funny bc i didn't get the double scroll bar with the first one. I did get double scroll bars with 79. but i am not getting any double scroll bars with this latest release (Win7 80.615)

HTC Imagio (Whitestone) Stock ROM (no HSPL).

Astro- thanks for all your hard work. Love it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] acc49ers:
I have double scroll bars too. I figured out a fix, or at least it worked for me. I had my threaded input space set at 60. I set it back to 35 and the double scroll bar was gone. If you go into the Windows folder and edit the thread_sms.htm file with notepad and find where it says height and change that number to 35. Here's a better description if you need more detail on how to edit this file http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=366347 Is there a way to edit this height and have it set at 60, or whatever value you want it at, without having the double scroll bars?
[Windows Mobile Themes] g2tl:
Awesome, that did the trick!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Uppy:
help me

I'm using a HTC Touch2 (QVGA) and the windows 7 skin looks like this:

I will try this out! Thanks for sharing!

Quick request here, I know about smileysms but i like yours better, any chance of adding emoticon support? especially for the windows 7 theme, the manila theme is more of a professional skin, in my opinion anyway.
[Windows Mobile Themes] tarmizizain:
hi im kinda newbie..how do i install this?im using the win7 latest ver for start menu on top left..after install the cab,reboot,but then nothing happens.

pls help me.thanks.the pic is awesome.i really like it..thanks again.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Uppy:
huh? win7? you mean windows mobile 7? thats not available in any way right now, sounds like you have windows mobile 6.x, use the 615 cabs and install to your device, not storage card :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] tarmizizain:
thanks..i mean the win 7 skin .615 cab.during installation there's no options for me to install in device or sd..but i believe it install directly to the device.and then i need to restart my phone.but still there's nothing change to the sms skin.did i need to configure something else?

thanks for reply.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Uppy:
Ohhhh DUH ME :D

no, it should just work, im not sure, have to see if someone more experienced answers your query.
[Windows Mobile Themes] shumilica:
soft-rest after install. The cab is designed so that you don't have the option to install in sd card because cab modifies (or adds files) intro /windows directory from your memory phone. If you could install it in sd card it would not do anything.

After install you have to soft-reset, but I think you did that.

Also this skin is for default WM Messaging, not for htc messaging. I see in your signature that you have a rom with sense 2.1, so you have to click 'all messages' in the message tab. If your signature is outdated and you have a 2.5 ROM then you have to disable htc messaging.

Also you have to have threaded sms enabled (chat like sms messaging with contacts) to see what this theme is all about.
[Windows Mobile Themes] YOSEFE:
I installed on my TP2 running Ark_N's 21891 Rom.

However, I don't know what to do to view my sms's in the new w7 skin. Any help?

EDIT:

Above post has answered my question.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Mario Lopez:
Does it works on WM6.5 Standard?

I have a Samsung i637 with WM6.5 Standard.

I install the Win7 Skin for SMS but nothing was changed.

Is only for WM Profesional?

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Jaymoon:
I wasn't really expecting this to run on WM Standard, but I figured I'd try anyway.

There seems to be no change after installing and rebooting on a HTC Snap with a 3VO WM 6.5 Rom.

:(
[Windows Mobile Themes] tarmizizain:
thanks..my sig is up to date.how to disable htc mesenging?yes, i use manila sense 2.1 when i click all message,i still dont have the win7 skin.any reg edit to check my messaging htc or wm?
[Windows Mobile Themes] jfreiman:
Standard

I too just tried it on my S743 Windows Mobile Standard device.

It too doesn't work. :(
[Windows Mobile Themes] smotrs:
I'm receiving the double scrollbar in version 80.615 Manila. Only appears when I click a conversation that shows multiple recipients.

Since these are skins, any chance you can add the Older/Newer links at the top/bottom so you can navigate to older messages? Any plans to also skin the All Messages page that shows all the conversations?
[Windows Mobile Themes] smotrs:
Here's a screen shot to illustrate what I'm referring too. I sent an SMS to 3 people (separated by semi-colons), the third name shows up on a second line. This is what causes the 2nd scrollbar to appear for the main window.
[Windows Mobile Themes] renetp2:
works perfect on my evo 6 rom from russ and sergio!
[Windows Mobile Themes] tpctsu:
i have putted on my hd2 but it hasn't changed to me anything.

what i do wrong?
[Windows Mobile Themes] patricksteven07:
overall

great job, this was an issue that def needed addressing. Is there any possibility that future versions would add the theme to the inbox in general and not just the individual thread?

Thanks alot!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Astronout:
So, do I read your post correctly by stating that your the height value was set at 60 after installing the cab? And then you changed it to 35? Yes, there is a way to set ik back to 60 (SIXTY?! that's half the screen?!). Edit thread_style.css accordingly by substracting 20 (60-40=~) from the height of #threadbottom.

Conversations with multiple recipients... interesting... Never seen that before :rolleyes: (at least, when I text 2 or more persons, it shows up in their respective conversations)

Sorry, the older/newer links can't be put anywhere else, neither can the all messages page be skinned, very much to my regret :(

Uh well, WM 6.1 shows the time if the message was sent today, but the date if it was sent yesterday? Anyway, it is different from WM6.5.3, which always shows the time-date in your locale format (e.g. mine is: dd/mm/yy hh:mm).

Nice to see that you're thinking along with me! Would you mind pm`ing me the file? Rapidshare is not quite my cup of tea :p

Regarding WM Standard (non-touch phones), it appears not to work. I am not familiar with this branch of devices, but I will look into it!

The double scrollbars are driving me mad!!:D
[Windows Mobile Themes] smotrs:
I have it set for threaded messaging as well and the SMS does in fact show up within each individuals respective conversations. But when you open the conversation, the message displays all the recipients rather then just the conversation recipient. :)

Shame about the All Messages page. :)
