so performance wise, it's not smooth? That's odd because from what i've seen on the dozens of Youtube videos, it runs REALLY smooth, it's one of the few phones out there that can actually multi-task properly. The iPhone doesn't even have the multi-task functions (unless you jailbreak it and install the multi-task apps), and it'll only be officially getting it when the OS 4.0 comes out for it. But even then, only the newer GEN will be able to support multi-task, so it's not smooth at all because it's a pain in the ass to press the home screen all the time. Like i said, i've owned an iPhone before and jailbroke it myself, and with the tons of tweaks and apps i've installed, it made my life 10x better compared to other people with their un-jailbroken iPhones, but even still it's a pain in the ass to use it. I also have an iPod Touch so i'll just stick with that, so ya i just thinks iPhone sucks as a phone for multi-tasking, it's not smooth at all.

The Droid looks ugly so i never liked it.

slide out keyboard how. normal slideout there are multiple variants, depending on gsm/cdma.

most affordable id say is the dream. goes for 100-150 on ebay. i bought one a few days ago, still waiting on the nurse to send it so i cant vouch how good it actually is.
[General Topics] chaoscreater:
i'm not sure i understood what you meant in the first sentence. What i mean by slide-out keyboard is like the HTC Touch Pro, Touch Pro 2, Nokia N97, Nokia N900 etc.....that's what slideout keyboard is.

HTC Dream looks ugly and screen too small.
[General Topics] htc fan89:
lg eve looks better than the dream, but the screen is only 3" and it's resistive screen. Also it's android 1.5.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] DiNoise:
I know it's been asked for some specific roms, but it's really interesting wat ppl like more on any ROM..
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] danknee:
Helix, period.

I don't like sense though, so sense lovers are going to disagree.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:
I'm confused about the difference between:

Stock plain android

AOSP look plain android

Unless you are talking about one black one white. But then you are getting in to themes and out of Home options.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] obelisk79:
I like sense, I wish they just go ahead and open source it, then we could really do some interesting things for it. Hell they could at least relase a widget dev kit, or specs on their widget api.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kratos313:
i like sense and now that it has working live wallpapers its goin to be the best
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] danknee:
I totally agree with what you wrote above. ;)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] DiNoise:
ok.. maybe i was wrong about that one.. I thought AOSP look wasnt a theme... but whatever i guess.. I do like AOSP look though, and I like Helix and Launcher, but I started to hate Sense look for some reason
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] baal_zebub:
Hello,

since WM6.5.3 buttons are skined. But usually not all Buttons. In old apps like totalcommander for example they are usually "oldstyle".

THERE's ONE EXCEPTION: mirion B4 ROM from QuePPC. with this ROM even this "old-app-buttons" are skinned. See my hardcopy.

i tried a lot of other roms - even the 6.5.3 emulator rom - none of the other roms skin these buttons!

Can somebody please tell me, what is the trick? How can i do this in other ROMs ? (i'd like to have this on another device also)

thank you.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Livven:
I think this is related to gwes.exe, and not in your control, unfortunately.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] baal_zebub:
in case it's gwes.exe - is it possible to replace it on the device ? or is it only possible by cooking a rom ?

is it really the .exe - or is it 0409.mui ?

thank you
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] + Que PPC:
mmm interesting... i need to try that rom... to see the secret :confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] baal_zebub:
Hello QuePPC,

yes, please try: with mirion B4 V2 (Lite) you have skinned buttons even in totalcommander - with all other roms i tried so far, you only have skinned buttons in "newer" apps, like excel etc.

To Compare: i tried delta V3 lately: total commander buttons are not skinned.

actually i would prefer to use a mix of delta and mirion:

- delta lite - since in delta V3 everything works fine - even the notifications

work!

(in mirion B4 - when you get a calendar-reminder-notification the options

are only: dismiss/snooze - there is no snooze 1 hour, snooze 1 day, ...)

- but the GUI / button skinning from mirion.

thank you, QuePPC!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] + Que PPC:
That ancient builds... are Tottaly experimental you know... thats how MS was evolve... and has better things.. the skinning may be as said before by Livven was a coincidence or "issue" cause the theme tooks the app buttond dialog window to stylish too.. if total comander look at that could demand them jiji but hey! it was just beta experiments... ;)

I forgot my USB cable at home,now that I made custom fonts for the Beautiful Widgets clock I want to test them. Is there any software for Windows that browse and of course send files to specific folders over Bluetooth?

Wow.. I thought this thread would be a lost cause. There's almost an app for everything.
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
Used SwiFTP: Sent the skins to the right folder but beautiful widgets doesn't list them :(

I restarted the phone but still no listing while the files are right there :confused:

I think I should buy a desktop stand for my office
[HD2 General] djingonthenet:
I had my phone to schedule a soft reset every night at 1am. Woke up this morning, pressed a button to wake it up and nothing, button lights came on nothing else, waited, pressed again exactly the same. Pulled the battery and rebooted, got to the Launching HTC Sense prompt, phone rebooted and doing so in a loop until I pulled the battery again. Have now reflashed back to the stock tmobile uk rom, that I think was developed by a four year old, and it's working. I really don't want to stick with this but again don't want to be flashing my phone every 3 weeks, in two minds whether to drive to tmo headquaters and shove it up someones arse :mad:
[HD2 General] monkeybutler365:
I'm currently using Artemis 9- best rom I've used. It and radio 2.06 seem to be an excellent combo for me. I'm in London.

Agree totally that the stock Tmob UK rom was pretty shocking. Was fine as long as you never installed anything, or left Sense!

Recommended wallpaper to go with this taskbar is attached.

Updates to come!

If you got a nice wallpaper to go with this taskbar, please post it in the thread and share the beauty!
[Windows Mobile Themes] dare2know:
thats truly wonderful and congrats for this artistic look..whata bout a matching theme with it? that will b Ur USP/ what do u say?
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Thanks! :D

Do you mean a Sense theme or a WM theme? There is a WM theme attached to the first post which IMO looks great with the taskbar. And as for Sense, I think nothing beats GTX!
[Windows Mobile Themes] srgudhka:
cannot install qvga version without battery %. showing certificate error.

have installed sdkcerts
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Hmm, strange. Try again now. I've resigned all files and updated the cab.
[Windows Mobile Themes] chelsea_fc:
waiting taskbar with original waitcursor :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Looks great LongIce, great to see a contribution of you!

Will write an article about it!
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Thanks, man :D Remember to pay credits to Dark Ninja as well...!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
Looking good man , nice work indeed :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] Kamill:
This looks gorgeous! Thanks for the effort :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] jagan2:
Its excellent and thanks for making a qvga version too.
[Windows Mobile Themes] slash_5150:
very nice man i like the blue. :D

hang on i cant install this on my acer neotouch stock rom. its says "cannot be installed"

ive chosen the right resolution (wvga) and wm version 6.5....:(
[Windows Mobile Themes] kwill:
Good stuff, but I can't get any of them to install. Keeps telling me it was unable to install.
[Windows Mobile Themes] jackcorso:
issue

hello,

I followed all the steps for a proper installation but the new taskbar will simply not show. Instead i have the default one. My ROM details are in the signature.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] shorty083:
I get the same 'cannot be installed' error.

Sense 2012,

Wm 6.5.5,

Cab (W)VGA WM 6.5.X with internal battery percentage status.
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
It seems that someone are having trouble with the cab. We will look into it. Until we find a solution, here's a temporary fix:

1. Download the cab and THIS FILE. Extract it.

2. Drag the cab over the Cab2OEM.exe. This will create a folder with some files.

3. Using Total Commander, Resco Explorer etc, manually copy the files to the windows folder. You might have to rename the original files to .bak first.

4. Soft reset.

Sorry for this, guys. We will try to fix it ASAP...
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Don't think I will be releasing a separate cab for that :p But if you can post your phcanoverbmp.dll file here I can fix that one for you though.
[Windows Mobile Themes] kwill:
Thanks longice, that worked just fine.
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Great, I'm glad to hear!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
Partway there Longice .. check you PM for a couple fixed cabs
[Windows Mobile Themes] BRSG:
Love your taskbar, but after I installed it at my Blackstone the battery tells me that I have only 15% battery when I have more than 70% battery!

I installed the Black battery percentage version! Gonna test the Internal battery percentage to see if this still happens...
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
That's because the original battery indicator only has 22 icons while this one has 101 icons (each percent is included in this but not in stock indicator). So WM misunderstands for some reason what icons to choose. Try uninstalling the taskbar, reinstalling SDKCerts and then reinstall the taskbar again.
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Some of the 6.5.X cabs are now fixed!

Check out post #1 and #2 for download links and changelog.
[Windows Mobile Themes] zindo:
hi longice.... do you know if there is a method to change colour in manila at the text message like black???thanks so much!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
No, I know nothing about manila skinning! The Sense theme is GTX. A quick search turned up THIS, THIS and THIS thread. Don't know if that helps...
[Windows Mobile Themes] srgudhka:
looks gr8 on my qvga device. but the softkey bars are screwed up.
[Windows Mobile Themes] zindo:
helps so... but doesn't work the third post in manila 2.1...perhaps thanks so much again!!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
How, precisely, is it screwed up?
[Windows Mobile Themes] srgudhka:
in msg inbox. my delete icon is replace by menu icon. also reply msg icons is replaced by delete msg icon
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
I honestly can't see how that is related to this taskbar. It doesn't modify any files related to the softkeybar or the message inbox. Are you sure you haven't installed any other cabs, mods etc?

It should work with both!
[Windows Mobile Themes] albekb:
mmmh..in past i've tried a taskbar with double volume control and i've volume problems..
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
I have no idea what might causing it and haven't seen anyone else with that issue...

What you can do, is to uninstall and instead manually copy the dlls to the windows folder. You'll find the tools you need via the 'Installation issues' link in the second post.
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Then I suggest you manually copy the dll files to the windows folder, just to be sure. See link in post #2. If you're getting volume control trouble, revert to your original HTCVolumeControl.dll. You can also post it up here and I'll skin that file for you.
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
is there a fix for 6.5 wvga version? or only 6.5.x?

it's looking really great:D

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
The cabs with the internal percentage and the one with only battery icon (no percentage) are both fixed. I think the black one should work as well, but it's not tested for the mentioned issues yet.
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
no 6.5 version is working for me with my stock leo rom:(

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Could you please describe the problem a bit more? What problems are you experiencing? And make sure the SDKCerts cab is installed.
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
sdk certs are installed and installation says not able to install choose other place (and

i allways chose the internal memory)

same problem like others had with 6.5.x versions

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
And you said that is all the 6.5 versions?

Is this what anyone else is seeing?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
The taskbar does not control what type of volume control you see.
[Windows Mobile Themes] albekb:
thx for clarification..my question is born becouse in past i've tried a taskbar that modify my volume control..(change single in double)

PS: sorry for my english
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
It depends on the dll included in the cab. This taskbar will keep your original double/single volume control, so no worries on that :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] albekb:
thx a lot..:)
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Guys, check out the first post for new 6.1 taskbars! Changelog on second post :D Have fun!
[Windows Mobile Themes] pimp1310:
where must i put in the folders in the zip file`?
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Windows folder. You have tried the cab without success? What cab did you try?
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
does a 6.5 update follow soon?

or am i the only one with this problem?

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Two of the 6.5 bars should be fixed, haven't got any other error reports after that fix... but are you having trouble also with the manual method (copy dlls to windows folder)?
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
i don't have pc by my hands atm...so i can't check manually can you upload a folder with this files.

the internal bat % cab only gives me default taskbar and the black bat% says allways not able to install choose other direction...

downloaded your cabs several times and allways the same

and was waiting for this blue edition for along time

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
finch .. which one do you want to use in particular?
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
doesn't matter if it works

if i have to choose i would choose the black bat% version

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
ok i will take a look at the cab and see if i can make it work. it will take me a little time but stay tuned for it ( should be today).
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
great news thx in advance

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
this is a quick test shot at it so no promises but give it a try .. i am still looking into it
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
sorry still no success:(

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] Spiderman313:
I'm also having a problem with installation. I have a Sprint Touch Pro 2 with a custom 6.5 rom. The error I have us saying installation unsuccessful install... This is with the black internal percentage. When I install the other 6.5 taskbar only thing that is skinned is the signal type (evdo,1x).
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
ok it was worth a try... still working on the cab.. if you want to try it you can manually copy the files over to your windows dir. with something like total commander ( not file explorer) they are attached. just unzip copy the LI6.5dark folder over than copy all files to windows.. Or just hang tight and I will get the cab done for you to try
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
6.5 Dark Percentage taskbar

Ok lets give this another try. 6.5 taskbar with dark percentage battery. This is almost a complete cab minor graphics still to change but want to make sure it works before investing more time in it. If someone can give it a try and report back? Thanks

Removed for more work
[Windows Mobile Themes] dendrobium123:
hey.. this is weird.. my icons aren't blue

i am using hd2, stock everything. i have sdkcerts installed from a previous taskbar installation which i uninstalled before trying this one. anyone know what's wrong. do i have to start it somewhere?

they aren't play and they don't look at all like the ones in the screen shots.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
First off what file did you try to install there are several available. No it does not need to be started just installed and soft reset.
[Windows Mobile Themes] dendrobium123:
thanks for quick reply, i installed the

longICE Studios BLUDROID Taskbar WM 6.5 Internal %.cab

do you think previous taskbar mods could have messed with it?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
there have been some issues with the cabs and installation , the post right above your first one has a test cab i posted as I try to fix them .. if you can install that and see if it works
[Windows Mobile Themes] dendrobium123:
i tried that cab. and it's all blank now haha. any idea?

i have a cab installed which takes away the start text. i'll try uninsatlling that and installing the bluedriod.
[Windows Mobile Themes] dendrobium123:
nope, didn't work. i took a picture of it using my laptop webcam. i don't know how to take screenshot on my phone and i don't have a camera lol.

they look familiar which is what made me think the old installations affected it, but i'm not sure.

Update:

tried to install the desire taskbar and it worked fine, so i guess it's something with this one.

don't like the desire as much as this, but i guess i'll have to wait.
[Windows Mobile Themes] torquefever:
I tried this CAB. Although it installed successfully, taskBar is just BLANK with only time on it and the ROM is irresponsive. I had to hard reset. I am using WM 6.5.3 Stock ROM by Samsung.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mozomar:
didn't work with me

it didn't work with me, I can't see the whole taskbar it is all black..

Manila version: 2.5.1921

ROM: 1.66.405.2 (Official UK ROM)

Device: HD2
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
And SDKCerts is installed? I honestly have no idea what's causing the problems, I'm really sorry.

However, it seems it only affects a few. There have been 600+ downloads in three days and only about 10 people that have reported these installation issues... It might be something wrong with my cab manager though, so with the great help from dandnj I'll try to get it fixed.
[Windows Mobile Themes] MZ182:
all taskbar for WM6.1 won't load. Installation completed but it says something like "the software was design for older version of windows" and no softreset confirmation pop-up.

Topaz TESS V2.F WWE

SDKCERT installed
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
still no success with the manual way...

but i think it's nice how you care about those with problems

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Short question: I suppose since you're German you're using GSM. But I wanna be sure: Are you using CDMA or GSM?

Just perform a soft reset yourself and let me know if the taskbar works (press the red button behind the stylus).
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
i didn't know that cdma is possible in germany

i'm using gsm you're right

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Yeah thought that. No I think it's not supported in Europe at all :p

When using manual method, did you have success on copying the files? You did use total commander, resco explorer or similar?
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
using resco explorer i got a blank taskbar with one small black square in it and all folder icons looked like

help-files( violet book with "?" in it)

that looked quite strange

:D

...
[Windows Mobile Themes] MZ182:
yes i always do that after every single installation. But yours just won't load. Installed on fresh rom after hard reset didn't solve the problem either.
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
I must say that is strange. Just tested 6.1 internal %. Installation went fine, it prompted me to soft reset and it all turned up as it's supposed to. I really don't understand why you guys are having those issues... I'll talk to dandnj and see if we can find a solution.

If you would mind, could you try the Dark Ninja Android taskbar and see if that works for you?
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
i'm using his taskbars since a while
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Okay, here's my last shot for now. Just keep the Dark Ninja taskbar on your device before this procedure. Then do this:

1. Download the attached file and extract it to My Documents on your device.

2. Copy the two files to your clipboard (on your device of course :p ).

3. Go to the windows folder and rename phcanoverbmp.dll to phcanoverbmp.dll.bak and shellres.192.dll to shellres.192.dll.bak.

4. Paste the two files into the windows folder.

5. Soft reset.

Did this turn your battery blue (with internal %) and start icon to a blue android?
[Windows Mobile Themes] finch273:
quite nice too, but nothing blue:(
[Windows Mobile Themes] MZ182:
Ok. Tested on stock wm6.1, the black and internal battery percentage taskbars load fine with perfect installation. The one without percentage still got the same problem. Dark Ninja Android taskbar runs fine on both stock and custom rom.
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Yeah I found there might be some problem with it so I pulled it. Will get it fixed ASAP. Thanks for the report on the other ones working fine!

I've attached the files needed for the WM 6.1 (W)VGA without battery percentage. Install one of the other 6.1 cabs first and soft reset, then copy the files in the zip to the windows folder. That should make it work until I get the cab working properly.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
I pulled that cab for more work, however as the post said it was for 6.5 not 6.5.x so it would not have worked right for your ROM anyway. Are you having problems with the posted 6.5.x taskbars?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
I am not real sure either but going to keep looking into it.

I can only guess you are right that there have been successful installs of the 6.5 cabs by some users? if anyone can confirm would be great.
