Does this refer to the latest update that Mark has been talking about? Is this available yet? Because the first post is still dated 9th Oct...

Not being impatient or anything - just a bit confused!
[Windows Mobile Themes] GEX THE GECKO:

UPDATE FOR PROPLUS FREEDOM [W]VGA!!

NEW YOUTUBE VIDEO MADE BY ME *HERE* :D

ChangeLog:

1st December 2010 (VGA, WVGA)

+ Added Custom Button Overlay Links for the MenuBar to launch ANYTHING!! (only works with Smooth Scrolling MenuBars)

+ Added ProPlus Froyo MenuBar (Smooth Scrolling section)

+ Added File Injection Tool in the Advanced Tasks section (allows you to inject a modified file back into the original dat file)

+ Added lots of new widgets for Analogue and Digital Clocks, Weather, Agenda and Current Date (some from Naong's Mobile Sense)

+ The HTC Clock with Full Info can now be made with just 3 widgets (saves memory)

*NOTE: When using the Custom Buttons, if you have change the Panel Button to something else then you wont be able to click on the 'Tick' after editing your layout or adding a widget. Simply goto Start Menu, ProPlus Freedom and select 'Restart Shell' to confirm your changes and get the screen back to normal.

Download links in the 1st Post.

Enjoy and please at least leave feedback if nothing else :)

nice release . i hope wqvga version will be update it soon. tomorrow maybe? hahha.
[Windows Mobile Themes] skyhew:
Thanks... this is great!

Is that any way to un-install it?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
What do you mean?

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Latest update is out now for [W]VGA resolutions first :D

I think Gex was refering to the ProPlus Ultimate V2 MenuBar which is invisible so the whole screen can be seen and edited, and the MenuBar can be placed at the bottom or at the top.

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] GEX THE GECKO:
Yeah thats what i ment:) can i put a request in for the next release? a extra small panel in blue to match vostradamuses neon menubar

Thanks for your efforts.

But, I've just tried the 120110 version on my new & fresh Samsung Omnia II (fresh SPB MS 3.5.5 install) and selecting any features of the ProPlus (menus) turns the unit sort of unstable. A number of restarts of SPB seem to happen, but it never makes it and from then on, the phone is pretty unusable, until I do a full reboot, at which point SPB comes back, but without any PPlus features.

Any ideas?

I should try this on my HTC TP2 as well to see if I get the same behaviour.

Weird.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Did you install to Device Memory or Storage?

Did you install the correct version for your device (sorry to ask but its more common than you might think)?

What exactly do you do to trigger the constant restarts?

MArk.
[Windows Mobile Themes] theshowman:
Hi Mark,

Thanks for the response.

I installed it to Device memory, Full version (with added widgets) (20101201). I have a Samsung Omnia II (WVGA, 800x480).

The restarts (of what appears to be SPB MS) and the instability would start to happen once I'd go the ProPlus menu selection and try to select any of the available menus. It seems to want to restart SPB, tries a couple of times, and it gives up, then it defaults back to Titanium and then it becomes very unresponsive.

AFter the reboot, it switches to SPB MS, but the menu's haven't taken effect.

However, I can select the various clocks, weather widgets that ProPlus has via the usual EditLayout actions.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Tribulattifather:
Still the best theme i.m.o. ^>^

I am using this along with Sense 2.0 for my QVGA device.
[Windows Mobile Themes] nowhereXmanX:
When will be the wqvga version? i hope soon .
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Within the next week hopefully.

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Im sorry I have no idea what could be causing instability of the theme..

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] theshowman:
I've found the culprit.

I believe it has to do with the fact that I also install winrar, which possibly clashes with the rar.exe that you are including and using with your package.

Uninstalling (or refraining to install on a fresh ROM) winrar solves the problem and I can now utilize your themes.

Thanks for your great work.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Similar thing happens if mortscript is installed.. At least you figured out what was causing your problems lol well done :D

[Windows Mobile Themes] mizu12:
Hi,

I wanted to download the widgets only for WVGA, but there's no link for them in the 1st post:

"* ProPlus Freedom Widgets Only Injection Pack [Size MB]"

That's all.

Could you correct it?

Thanks!

[Windows Mobile Themes] MarkAtHome:
Hi Mark -- is there any way to incorporate CHT widgets and clocks into ProPlus Freedom?

I finally made the move to HD2s (got two of them for $0.02 from Amazon for T-Mobile...), and started experimenting.

Since I have been using your stuff for ages, I thought that I would check out some other author's wares before returning to the fold.

There are two things that I would like to retain when returning. The weather (I am guessing that that is Sense and not CHT, but am not sure), and an analog clock widget/replacement that I had made.

Will they work under ProPlus Freedom?
[Windows Mobile Themes] kaco_tmp:
Mark we are still waiting for the new WQVGA version.

When can we expect it???

[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
To be honest I havent done much with HVGA yet I havent been well for the last few weeks and have been spending time with my family.

If theres any updates I will post them. Did you get your new phone for christmas?

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
No CHT mods can be carried across to Spb Mobile Shell as they are incompatable plugins. Animated weather which is displayed on HTC Sense will not work on Mobile Shell as it does not support animated images on 3.5.5. You may be able to carry your clock across but you would have to edit an existing Anaolgue Clock Widget for Mobile Shell to make it work.

Hope you had a good christmas mate :)

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
All I can say is it will be done when its done. I havent been working on ProPlus at all for the last few weeks as I have been unwell and since this is a totally free project im in no rush to push myself to update it.

Maybe I will be able to update [W]QVGA in the next few weeks.

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] MarkAtHome:
Sense's animated weather is great. Aside from the windshield wipers... , I love that it is also up to date based upon your current location (optional) -- a serious limitation of SPB.

The analog clock is important to me, as it is an exact, working replica (smooth seconds hand movement with date) of the watch my wife gave me for my 60th...

I am still learning about the HD2 and I am in no rush, other than working out a backup/restore routine so that I can keep up with Dutty... ;)

It was wonderful, as I had a chance to spend a little time with my great niece who is 19 months old.

I hope you had a good one, too, and that your new year will bring you further happiness with your new, little miracle... :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Its a shame that analogue Clocks on Mobile Shell dont have second hands as it seriously hinders the accuracy of telling time. Also I dont know if its a major bug or just common in some parts of the world but the minute hand on the Analogue Clocks is in front of the Hour Hand on Mobile Shell and always has been.

Glad your Christmas went well I had the flu for nearly 2 weeks but its almost gone now just a pesky cough left lol.

Hi!

I have the same problem here, tried the preset themes, especially pro plus ultimate elegance cuz i really like to scroll between the seven pages and the thin number bar, but no change...tried the other ones and same result...

im using spanish language room, i changed the language spb mobile shell for english to see if it may work, but it didnt. Really hope not to go back to the previous version, anyway thanks in advance and keep at the great work!

greetings from Costa Rica! and good luck for england in the next match! :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] fubo73:
Just keep waiting. Current package seems to not work in not English environment. mskip is working on for WVGA.
[Windows Mobile Themes] nowhereXmanX:
so no QVGA. version coming soon? hope coming soon.
[Windows Mobile Themes] fubo73:
I'm answering an Italian guy as WVGA is not working on Italian ROM. Perhaps mskip will work out a QVGA working on English.
[Windows Mobile Themes] nowhereXmanX:
thx for the info. this is a great windows mobile theme.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
QVGA/WQVGA will definitely be up tonight I have the naked version finished just have to convert 100 bmp images and test the full version.

To all people who have different language roms from WWE can you please let me know the exact folder names for program files/spb mobile shell and the storage card. You can find them easily enough by using your phones file manager.

MArk.
[Windows Mobile Themes] nowhereXmanX:
thx a lot, 1 question, sorry for my ignorance, but wats naked version? and if i have spanish but i had no problems with your older version(proplus ultimate Elegance). will be a problem now?
[Windows Mobile Themes] claus1953:
For spanish ROM:

Archivos de programa/spb mobile shell

Tarj. Memoria
[Windows Mobile Themes] nowhereXmanX:
thx a lot. i have a omnia i900L. same.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Tarj. Memoria? I assume thats for the storage card? Is that exactly how it is displayed in a file explorer?

Basically the naked version is the complete theme and mods just without the extra widgets. So that someone without much memory can still use it or they might just not want the widgets.

If you have a spanish rom then chances are that the themes and mods wont work because the destination folder is set in the script but its very easy to change that parameter to the spanish/italian/whatever equivalent which is why im asking for the folder names. I can then change my script to ask for the roms language first which will then automatically set the destination path correctly.

If I get all the info I need then I can sort that out after I release the QVGA/WQVGA sets :)

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] alex.alp:
Same here, spanish room

Archivos de programa/Spb Mobile Shell

Tarj. Memoria

--------

Sony Ericsson Xperia1

[Windows Mobile Themes] alex.alp:
yes that's the device memory,

the exact path is: Mi dispositivo/Archivos de programa/Spb Mobile Shell

Mi dispositivo= my device, dont know if it's necessary to take it into account because i assume it's like in a normal pc, C:\program files... in that case you would need only "Archivos de programa/Spb Mobile Shell"
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
So the exact path of the storage card is?

Sorry if im repeating myself I just want to make sure I note it down properly.

strange screen problem..

Hi guys and thanks for your great work. I have an Elfin with win mo 6.5 on it. I followed every single step and installed the clean MS 3.5.5 and then ProPlus Freedom. On the second day of using i started to expierience some problems with the screen alignment. When I press Launcher for example (which is at the bottom of screen) the screen response near the default icon for connections (wifi, bluetooth, phone and flight mode i think). After few minutes everything got back to normal. I have not experienced such problems with screen or digitizer never before. My phone was perfect. The problem occured several times and I uninstalled ProPlus Freedom and MS 3.5.5. A week i had no problems with the screen and i decided to put them back and installed them. About 15-20 min after the screen went mad again. Does anyone experience such a problem and where is the fault in MS or ProPlus? Sorry for bad english and long post, but I really love my phone especially with MS and ProPlus on it :) Have a nice day all
[Windows Mobile Themes] it_hisses:
Hi! excellent app...Great work! Just a question:

After all the customization can we remove the ProPlus Freedom without losing all? I realy need some more free space:)

thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] GEX THE GECKO:
If you uninstall Proplus You will just have standard mobile shell no menubars and no sweet widgets
[Windows Mobile Themes] it_hisses:
ok! ty...

Damn i realy need more space in my Diam100(only 1,84Mbfree for programs, and 84%occupied:8)...i´m just using the desire menu bar! Is there any way to use it alone?

[Windows Mobile Themes] Mikjulsie:
Hi Mark,

It isn't clear from the information or the FAQ - can you tell me whether ProPlus works for devices that are mainly used in landscape mode?

I have an HTC Advantage X7510 which will work in portrait, but is not really well suited to that mode. And I have had some issues with a few packages that work mainly in portrait mode.

Thanks in advance for your help.

And apologies of you've answered this question elsewhere - I haven't spotted anything that will clarify this for me.
[Windows Mobile Themes] GEX THE GECKO:
Haha that creased me up reading that:p Its really not as easy as you might think to make This for HVGA i use to have a htc hd mini which is HVGA..In order to make it work Mark will have to resize everything in Proplus meaning hundreds of images and menu bars and a lot of other stuff which will take ages to do and even then he has no way of testing what he is working on because he doesn't have a HVGA device and if you check Microsoft website there is no emulator available for HVGA resolution (Blame Microsoft for that lol) so Mark has no way of testing Proplus For your Resolution... Im sure mark will explain it to you better than i have as he knows exactly what he needs to do because he made this and is sharing it with us. Be patient Good things come to those who wait and dont forget hes making this for free to help us all out with improving our devices, not for the good of his health...You should try installing Proplus i had it on my HD Mini and although certain features didn't work it was very usable there was only things like menu bars and analogue clocks which didn't work everything else worked fine for me.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
ProPlus Freedom works perfectly fine in Landscape mode. You wont get the same menubar in landscape mode as in portrait mode but there are no problems and everything works as it should.

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Why on earth would I hate HVGA??

As already stated in the below comment it is EXTREMELY difficult to create a theme for a resolution when you have absolutely no way of testing it. When I create themes I have to test each widget and modification over and over so in the early stages theres no point in sending anything to someone with the correct phone to test it as I might be looking for the position of a menubar or where abouts a graphical change is on a widget.

I have a VERY busy time on xda and have ALOT of projects on the go at any 1 time and negative comments such as yours only put work on an HVGA port further down the list. When I get to it I will do it and thats all I really need to say on the matter as Gecko made clear I dont get paid for anything I do on xda and im under no obligation to do anything for anyone.

Hope you have a great day :)

I think you worded everything very well mate :)

Hows it going with your HD2 so far? What operating system do you have on it there quite a few to choose from so far lol :D

Hi Mark,

I am with you on this.....also, as the saying goes, in a basket full of mangoes there will be a r.....n one which can spoil the good ones. I know it is difficult to ignore such remarks, but do not let them get you......

You are doing fantastic on XDA and if a thread is started now on appreciation of your work, pages will fill in no time.....

I am still on my relic HTC Touch QVGA and patiently wait for QVGA versions of your superb work.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bipinsen:
Hey Mark. I've been following your work for many years, but never actually got to installing the themes. On my previous device, I had naong's MobileSense theme, which I liked quite a bit. I moved to the TP2 half a year ago, and have now grown completely tired of all the CHT2 problems, and what not. I browsed on over to see what you were up to, and I am very pleasantly surprised. SPB3.5 is back on my phone, and I am trying out your theme. Thanks so much for your hard work! I am looking forward to running the theme through its paces. Just wanted to say a quick thanks! :)

If you need any help editing the menubar just let me know mate :)

I have NAND Gingerbread Android on my phone right now and must admit I have been converted to Android. Just the amount of stuff you can download from the market is enough to make you drool and most of it is free. Ontop of that the quality of games on Android is in a different league from WinMo and with complete facebook, twitter, google integration the phone works smooth and does everything you want it to.

The only downside of Android is the battery will only last at most 1 1/2 to 2 days but as I recharge my phone every night it doesnt bother me at all.

Of course we cant forget the HD2 has Windows Phone 7 on NAND too now but there are still some bugs to sort out with activation and theres hardly any apps available for it right now.

Sorry I went on a bit there I need someone sitting next to me to tell me to shut up lol.

[Windows Mobile Themes] GEX THE GECKO:
Cheers i rekn ill need it:p Im gunna start trying to do it some time today only thing i want to edit is the green colour you no when you press a button on the bar it looks outta place with my theme, i saw android on hd2 erlia on youtube looked amazing and with what you just said about the market place and games it sounds really tempting, but whats the score with the marketplace prices are they sky high like on win mo or are they decent? i have to charge my phone every night aswell so thats no biggie:)

na im glad ya went on i learnt summet from ya i didnt no hd2 could have Windows Phone 7:) and now im gunna go search NAND Gingerbread and see how i go about installing that if i ever decide to try it

Just click on the 'NAND Flashing Guide' link in my sig I wrote an extensive guide on how to put NAND Android on the HD2. The guide also tells you how to export your WinMo contacts to google so you can use them in Android. Flashing Android or Windows Phone 7 is extremely easy but it will overwrite your WinMo Rom so if you want to go back to WinMo you need to reflash it via the bootloader screen (also easy to do and covered by one of my guides ;)

Apps are EXTREMELY cheap on the market and if you do want to try Android then pm me and I can give you a list of some great apps and games I use.

The Gingerbread Rom I am using is *THIS* one and everything works perfectly.

Ohh and going back to Mobile Shell for a sec LOL I have the editable files of the Droid Menubar and can change the colour with 1 click so if you give me the exact colour you want I can change them all in about 5 minutes and send you the modified dat file.
