Argh! I had missed your comment about the backups fix/changes, so I didn't know that I wouldn't be able to restore on this occasion. Until I re-read this thread, I couldn't work out why it just kept saying "Backup file does not exist" even though it seemed to have successfully copied back from the storage card.

Oh well, I did it from scratch again this time - hopefully the format won't change again before my next update!

On that topic, which files on my storage card are now superfluous? - MSkip_ProPlus_Freedom_#.reg or MSkip_ProPlus_WP7_#.reg? I'm guessing the latter...

Yes, the program shortcuts that you get to via the Launcher button/icon. Thanks for the info. I haven't got the exact key you mention though.

I've got: HKLM\Software\Spb Software House\Shared\Spb Menu

and: HKLM\Software\Spb Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell\Menu

Is it one of these?

It would be fantastic if this could also be backed up via your utilities!

Do you think it would be feasable to allow editing of the backup slot names?

It would be useful to be able to call them backup Jul 5, preferred layout, experimental etc. to help us remember what was in each slot.

This would help when restoring and also when overwriting slots, but I don't know if it is possible with the way you've designed it.

I like the Droid theme, and really love the option to change carosel to tiles showing the 7 lifestyle pages (plus Spb menu and Professional) - this is much more useful than the carosel, which I never used.

Finally, I noticed that the Spb Links shortcuts to Lifestyle pages aren't quite right. Lifestyle2 takes me to Lifstyle page 4 and vice versa.

Also, when using these shortcuts, the system does not 'remember' the current page, even if I've changed pages in between. To illustrate what I mean...

Usual behaviour:

1. Go to Lifestyle page 4

2. Open another program

3. Press End or Home key to go back to Lifestyle

Returns to Lifestyle page 4

After using shortcuts:

1. Go to Lifestyle page 4

2. Use Spb Links shortcut to Lifestyle page 1

3. (optional) swipe across to Lifestyle page 2

4. Open another program

5. Press End key or Home key to go back to Lifestyle

Returns to Lifestyle page 4

It's almost like it's behaving in a separate virtual-Lifestyle environment when accessed from the shortcuts, but there's no indication of this. Is this a bug or a feature? :rolleyes:

Anyway, great work! Sorry for the big, long post...

I keep it simple and it works for me.
[Windows Mobile Themes] lamborg:
It would be nice if you could instruct me on how to.

I want to get it to open what the default 'Launcher' button does i.e Favorites plus Recently Used.

Thanks

Hi Mark I really like this new theme Droid. Will also be available for QVGA? Thank you. Hello Olda ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] nowhereXmanX:
Wat are the advantage of this droid theme, the difference from the others. beside the menu bar (i think is the name). (in the lowest part of the phone)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
The main advantage is a different look to your menubar. Its based on the same style as Elegance and Ultimate Elegance (7 individual selectable screens) and looks similar to the Android menubar but with 2 center buttons instead of Androids single launcher button.

Its my personal favourite and the one im using right now :)

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
The ProPlus Droid and NEW ProPlus Desire MenuBars will both be available for QVGA/WQVGA soon along with all the new updates :)

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Was it for the ProPlus Ultimate theme (with the visible buttons bottom left and right)?

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
From now on the any new backups made will contain Freedom rather than WP7. I made this change to keep everything seperate. Yes you are correct he latter is superflous now :)

I forgot to type the 'shared' part of the folder path lol I have included backup/restore for this in the latest version :)

I know what you mean and I would really like to allow this feature but I really dont know if its possible from the script language I use. I guess you are just going to have to write it down for now ;)

Yes I agree it makes the carousel much more functional :D

This was just a minor error on my part and has been fixed in the new version :)

Thanks and its fine I appreciated the feedback.

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
I have never had a clear medium panel can you elaborate or provide a screenshot of the panel you are after?

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Once I have cleared my backlog I can finally start looking into HVGA but the dimensions seem to be a bit wierd in the xml files and I have no emulator for HVGA so its going to be a very slow process im afraid :(

UPDATE FOR PROPLUS FREEDOM!!

ChangeLog:

7th July 2010 (VGA, WVGA)

+ Added new (icon with text) box skins

+ Added new text backing skins for shortcut widgets in black and grey for single and double line text

+ Added page heading texts in black and white for more customisation of the screen (add widget spb link and change skin)

+ Added Backup and Restore of the spb menu screen. Useful if you add files or programs to the 'My Shortcuts' section

+ Fixed the Lifestyle2 and Lifestyle4 links being swapped

+ Added NEW MenuBar.. PROPLUS DESIRE gives you full screen control with a small functional menubar at the bottom

Download links in the first post.

If you enjoy using this theme please consider making a donation. ALOT of work went into this to make it as good as it can be for everyone. Even if its just a small amount it gives me satisfaction and enthusiasm to carry on developing and appreciation of my work is very welcome.

Enjoy :D

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] nowhereXmanX:
looks cool, but 2 updates for VGA, WVGA. Any update for QVGA?

PS: did you think of making a video of your ProPlus Freedom and all the difference of the options we have?
[Windows Mobile Themes] oldasuk:
Hi Mark :D thanks for the reply and I look forward to the QVGA version. Excellent work. It will be available today? Hello Olda ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Well I have a WVGA device so I can test the new features much easier before converting everything to QVGA and there was some minor bug fixes which needed to be done. I started converting images last night (as 2am) so it should be available today.

Yes I will try and make a youtube vid after QVGA/WQVGA has been done.

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] lamborg:
Yes. In which only 2 buttons are visible. Carousel and Settings in LifeStyle.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] nowhereXmanX:
When the new version for QVGA i would like to try the android and desired options.

so.... question. it will be ok i backup and store in the slot 1? and then try the other 2 new options.? i never try to backup so im i little afraid to lose all the widgets in the 7 pages. it doesnt matter if i store the proplus ultimate elegance (wat im using right now)in slot 1 , android slot 2 and desire in slot 3? im correct or Im totally nuts. jajajaj

PS.after you change your phone for a new 1 could i have yours? hahahahah.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Guachomelaco:
SPB 3.5.5 + ProPlus Freedom really fascinating.

You are really very creative.
[Windows Mobile Themes] halloj:
Contribution

Minor refill of your beercan. I do appreciate your new panels, great work, thank you. Cheers.:)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Ok here goes:

1. copy qa_layouts.dat from program files, spb mobile shell on your phone to your pc

2. rename to qa_layouts.dat.zip

3. using winzip (must be winzip or you can have problems) extract the MenuBar3Lifestyle_UltimateV1.xml file using the password b0fm18zq when asked

4. open the xml file in notepad

5. about a 1/3 down you will find the following text

<Layout Name="Default">

<Plugins>

<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.MenuBar" Name="Panels" ID="3">

<Int Name="ActivateOnPress" Value="1"/>

<String Name="Action" Value="Panels"/>

<Int Name="LeftBtn" Value="1"/>

<String Name="Icons" Value="ButtonsMB"/>

<Skin Name="IconSkin" Skin="MSkipFiles" MiddleSkin="MSkipFiles" DoubleSkin="MSkipFiles"/>

<Rect Name="SrcIcon" X="0" Y="54" Width="27" Height="27"/>

</Plugin>

replace the highlighted lines with

<String Name="Open" Value=":BTN0"/>

<Int Name="isActive" Value="1"/>

<Int Name="Replace" Value="0"/>

6. save the file and exit from notepad

7. drag the file back to your opened winzip file (qa_layouts.dat.zip) making sure winzip 'encrypt files' is selected with the password set to b0fm18zq

8. close the winzip file and rename back to qa_layouts.dat

9. copy the qa_layouts.dat file back to your program files, spb mobile shell folder on your phone making sure to overwrite the original

10. goto start menu, mskip's proplus tools, restart mobile shell

11. when mobile shell restarts test the panels button to make sure it opens the launcher

You can now set the new "launcher" button through menu (bottom right button) settings to open spb menu or launcher. This button has also now been mapped to your left soft button on your phone.

You can also use this method to change the panels button on any of the MenuBar3Lifestyle xml files and you can also set it to open any of the other spb screens by replacing :BTN0 with any of the following.

:BTN1 - contacts, favorites, calllog

:WEATHER - weather

:AGENDA - agenda

:TIME - time

:NOTE Be aware that if you reload the Original Theme (or reinstall ProPlus Freedom) then you will need to copy the modified qa_layouts.dat file back to your phone. You can also safely use this modification on any future updates so it would be easier for you to keep any modified xml files on your pc so that you can just import them back into the qa_layouts.dat file on the new version.

Hope this helps, if you get into any difficulty (which you shouldnt aslong as you can follow instructions lol) then just shout.

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Yes you are correct and of course you can have my phone (as long as you pay for it) :p

Thank you very much its appreciated :)

[Windows Mobile Themes] oldasuk:
Hi, Mark is now the new version of the QVGA download? I am impatient:D. Hello Olda ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] gerald_s:
Two stupid questions:

1.) What happened to the "digital clock plus"? I mean this one with time and date like the built in professional clock and enough space left and right to integrate the battery and the weather icon in the frame.

2.) I'm not sure why but if I got to "add widget" there is no "backlight" widget anymore. I have installed MS 3.5.5 and ProPlus Freedom on my qvga and on my wvga device. On the qvga device the backlight widget is between "phone profile" and "battery" but on my wvga device there's no backlight widget. Maybe someone knows a solution for this?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
1. I took some of my original widgets off to save space, mainly weather widgets and some of the digital clocks. I forgot about that one and I used to use it alot so I will add it back in my next updates.

2. Try looking in Add Widget, Shortcut, Tools? On my HD2 the Backlight widget is in the main widget selection list so I dont know why its not showing on yours.

Gimpeh!!! Lol i know i might get killed for this but when will we see the 2.2 ROM by ozzeh?
[Droid Incredible General] Gimpeh:
I think right now we are waiting on a port of 32 kernel which will play much nicer with Froyo.
[Droid Incredible General] ksizzle9:
Sounds good. Im ready for a good ROM. I know its early on for anything great but honestly it will take a champion to take me off sense. I know its a RAM/memory hog but its got alot of cool features that u can't find anywhere else and i think the only reason people complain is the speeds of updates. If sense phones got updates as fast as vanilla phones i gaurantee not a single person would b complaining about it.
[Droid Incredible General] larsrya8:
I would still complain. :p I'm noticing HTC broke the Battery Usage reporting. My IMAP email account sometimes has messages stuck as "Still on server", despite killing and reloading the HTC mail app (stock doesn't have this issue). The HTC music app is horribly sluggish when attempting to navigate my rather small music library (stock flies in comparison). The changes that HTC made to the browser have made it slower, and even with Flash Lite disabled the browser still occasionally crashes when scrolling past flash elements... why?!

Therefore I, personally, cannot wait for a (mostly) bug-free ROM built from AOSP. Cyanogen 5.0.8-Test1 and Test3 showed me what the device can be like without Sense, and I enjoyed it. Once Koush gets the hardware issues sorted out I'll switch permanently.
[Droid Incredible General] hexto:
I agree. I'm using CM5 Test 3 and its nearly flawless. Even with its bugs it better than stock Sense
[Droid Incredible General] ilangoadigal:
Anyone interested in adding Arabic support to a SenseUI rom? Someone got a rom working for the HTC Hero here, would that be easy to port?
[Droid Incredible General] ksizzle9:
Anyone know why i can't dl CM5 T3? It says corrupt zip file
[Droid Incredible General] romflash:
But linpack is not so good on Cm test3
[Droid Incredible General] brfarr11:
Thanks!

First off thanks to all the devs' work behind unrEVOked, The New Guy and all the roms out there. A big thanks for Making rooting a lot less scary and setting my droid free. Now I can save my battery with a better kernel and not have to pay VZ $20/mo for tethering.. among all other benefits.

Just wanted to drop a note and say I tried a bunch (6?) of ROM's and I thought The New Guy's was almost entirely bug free and the best experience I had. While many had issues with GPS breaking or phone and other major concerns, this one seems to function perfectly, except the visibility of the SD card (a known issue). If you want to try a great ROM, with a much different feel than stock, give this one a try. Now it may be because it's an EVO ported so nicely. In which case I'd also recommend Titanium backup

Droid inc

Android V 2.2

Kernel: 2.6.32.15-king-hav-oc-Uv (KK#5)

ROM: The New Guy (awesome!)

Radio: 2.15.00.07.28

Hello,

Since Google IO, i was very excited to see the push feature, cloud to device (C2D) but it has been a few weeks and I cannot find any app using these features.

All I could find is the Chrome extension ( exist also on mozilla) to send links on the phone by push...

But were are the other applications?

I imagined all the geeks creating imaginative apps (it's also the world cup and push is esential!) after that but seem to be impossible to find.

Please share what you found.

Thanks

[Desire Themes and Apps] Nekromantik:
froyo aint officially released so I dont think there will be many apps using this feature until Froyo is out properly.
[Desire Themes and Apps] JohnSteveDoe:
May want to review a vid or two from I/O. It's a feature they're going to implement, probably later in the summer. So far it only works for maps & links.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Waza_Be:
Ok, thanks for the info.

If I hadn't seen the chrome extention, i would never have asked the question, but as this extention is working pretty well, I imagined other applications that would use this feature.

Especially for the world cup :p

But OK, i will just wait a few weeks/month.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Waza_Be:
Sorry, it's me again.

As te N1 has Froyo since a few weeks and the Desire Begin to have it.

A lot of other devices too ( Hero, Dream, Magic, Droid,..)

I do not feel yet the power of Froyo applications. Am I too excited and should I wait a little bit more?

Does the Dev's have all the tools in their hands to make push applications ( for sport, that seem a must-have)

Sorry if my question is too early for asking that. I cannot feel the power of Froyo 2 month after the Google I/0.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Ceeefax:
Only the N1 has froyo officially. If you look at the share of the android OS that is on 2.2 it's incredibly small still even with the rooted roms. clicky. It needs to roll out to a sizeable percentage before it will be supported by the majority of developers. 1.8% if all android users isn't a big enough market to go after with applications.

Just need patience young padawan ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] odin13:
hi guys,

i really liked the clear sense lockscreen on my modaco 1.5 rom so i've decided to modify my Cronos 1.7.1 lockscreen...

i just removed the 'arch' images from the appropriate *.png files in the

com.htc.resources.apk file

tested and it works...

just push the file to /system/framework and reboot

i hope some will enjoy this

*imho it looks really nice with LauncherPro and it works with JIT

**i had to repack the file because the *.apk exceeded the upload limits

***haven't tested it on other roms --> before you do test it on another rom,

make a copy of the original *.apk first!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dan96815:
nice trying it now!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Looking nice :)

Hi guys,

Good to hear the file works for everybody :)...

I'm at work now so i can't check in which folders the *.png images are located but i will do this when i get home tonight!

*Feeyo thnx for creating the update.zip!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Zwart:
Thank you!

Looks much better imho :cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] odin13:
hi peeps,

the files that i've modified can be located in these folders;

folder: \res\drawable-mdpi

- lockscreen_arc.png

- lockscreen_arcglass_bottom.png

- lockscreen_arcglass_top.9.png

folder: \res\drawable-land-mdpi and \res\drawable-port-mdpi\

- lockscreen_prompt_back.png

You can just open the com.htc.resources.apk with 7zip or Winrar and copy the *.png images to your harddrive.

Modify these files with an editor like Photoshop or so and remove the graphics

so it will leave you a 'blank' *.png image....

Copy the files back to the appropriate folders in your *.apk and push it back onto /system/framework folder on your phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shatter86:
haha.. i managed to modify the png files to my own design. pushed back in. everything works. except that the facebook count under my contacts becomes 0 now.. can't sync my facebook to contacts now.. any ideas?

This is my first post, so i want to say hello:)

sorry for my english, it isn't perfect but i hope you'll understand me.

I have strange screen problem. It has been staterd several days ago.

During normal usage (typing, surfing and etc) screen in my phone suddenly gets dark, but when i look on the screen in place where is strong light(for example near lamp) i can see that all stuff is still on the screen. It seems that this is the under screen LED problem.

Problem appears totally randomly, sometimes a few hours everything is ok, and after that screen suddenly gets dark, when i type red button two times(lock and unlock) the LED's are lighting,but only for two, three secounds after that screen is dark again. When i leave phone, after several minutes the screen turn on automatically.I tried several roms, old and new radio, problem still exist.I guess this is HW problem, but i just want to make sure before i take the phone to the service.am I right?
