Its done:D Post #6 has been updated with the cab.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mcluvn:
No one is going to comment on the ele mod!!!??? :(
[Windows Mobile Themes] ezzie:
sorry, I had to work early and downloaded late.....love the illusion look and I hope you continue with this idea. It's hard to come up with new ideas for the message areas and I think you're going to have some followers on this idea.....
[Windows Mobile Themes] mcluvn:
Thanks! I like the look of it a lot. This was my first try at it and it turned out pretty good. I will be working on this style for sure! Ive got a few more ideas im going to do, that is if I ever get off of work!

The illusion mods are more for people who can injoy art and like stuff that is something other than ordinary. So I might not get the number of downloads that some of my other mods but these are more for me and I'm just sharing my creations.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ezzie:
Here are a couple of screenies for you.....

request for htc girl

Hi Mcluvn,

A big thanks for the great looking mods, i had the same problem with the message mod showing but not the email so i installed the dark green NOcfc and it worked.

I like this one a lot but i like the htcgirl even more so my question is:

can you make me a htcgirl NOcfc?

Thanks a lot from the Netherlands
[Windows Mobile Themes] mcluvn:
Yea I can do that for you. Check back in a few hours.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mcluvn:
Here you go.
[Windows Mobile Themes] robson10:
WOW, didn`t expect it so fast:)

Many thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mcluvn:
No problem. Enjoy!!!!!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] AGY:
mcluvn;

Thanks I figure it out I guess I was trying to do it over the Manila tabs:eek:!! Poyensa showed to me how to modify manila files.

I like a lot the aztec backgrond could be possible to have a cab for the manila messaging home tab?

Thanks and cheers!
[Windows Mobile Themes] styla42:
Thx the illusion look is awesome, but wich theme are you using on this screen?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mcluvn:
If you are talking about the cht widget then yes. if you mean the tab its self then no because there isnt an image for that. its just the wallpaper.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mcluvn:
That would be yours truely. I made it for the WhiteOut Rom that I all so skinned. You can check it out over at ppcgeeks. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/cdma-tp2-upgrades/137576-nov-27_xyc_whiteout_6-5-x_23563_cht-2-0-new-theme-post-3-a.html
[Windows Mobile Themes] BHS Interceptor:
Well, there has been quite some feedback since then too ;)

Lot´s of ideas for theme switching with CHTS, so just when I thought I had to start modding mode9 files, I found you :D

It would be great if a separate e-mail widget was developped, just like the sms one. This way you could modify the Home widget without effect on the e-mail tab, and thus no need for mode9 editing ;)

Issues arise both, with mode9 for widgets, and mode9 for tabs... so it´s simpler to stick to image manilas, but the effect and changes can not be achieved otherwise, yet :(

And I got that one too... :D:):p

Now, mcluvn, would you gimme a hand sorting some issues for CHTS Theme switching... I´m almost there, but would like to improve it :o
[Windows Mobile Themes] mcluvn:
@BHS great use of the multi-quote! You did some reading in this thread!

Yes I have had pretty good feed back. It helps out more than people think.

That would be nice if the email tab and its widget didnt share the same manila files but I think it is like that to keep everything as small as possible.

I havent worked with the chts to much so I dont know how much help I can be but I will help with what I can. When you get a chance just shot me a PM and we can go from there.
[Windows Mobile Themes] BHS Interceptor:
:D I try to keep my post count down, otherwise people might think I know more tham I actually do :o I took my time and read the whole post, instead just the last page and then post a question :p PM will be on it´s way soon and let´s see, if someone develops a separate e-mail widget, or "simply" adds one file to the existing one ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dragonmaster0430:
can u plz make Mcluvn GTX_shadow_mail_mod.cab work for ^ that issue?

Can anyone post a link to this skin or teach how to skin sms widget?thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] mcluvn:
Ive never seen this skin before. maybe someone else here can help you out with that one.
[Windows Mobile Themes] BHS Interceptor:
Maybe searching for user "Wajk" and asking him in thread or via PM to share it...

The image reminds me of some available "artwork" as "crumbled paper" or "wrinkled sheets".... Otherwise the do it your self method... Take a nice picture of a wrinkled sheet of paper and edit the pic, mod the manila and go :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] acrylic_26:
Yeah i been thinking to do it by myself, still finding suitable tutor

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jonni3:
I just received my Case-mate barely there case today from play.com & thought I'd give a mini review ago.

It comes in a smartly packaged box, upon opening the box you have in your hand a moulded abs plastic shell & a sealed packet containing a screen protector, micro fibre cloth & a piece of soft card.

The shell is easy enough to put on, it's just a simple push to fit design that works really well.

The actual fit of the Case-Mate barely there is superb with the power & volume buttons being easy to access as are the mini usb port & 3.5mm socket while also giving the camera & speaker unobstructed access.

I didn't fit the screen protector, well seeing as Samsung used gorilla glass & the fact that a screen protector isn't going to do much good if you drop it face down (I've seen a few on here with cracked screens) & that someone can do this to one with no ill effect then I see no need.

The Case-Mate barely there itself was purchased to improve the grip of the phone which as we all know is a little slippery & protect the rear cover from getting scratched & knocked, well the Case-Mate barely there does improve my hold on the Galaxy S but not like I was hoping it would :(.

The case wraps around the rear of the phone following the Galaxy S contours like a second skin, I can see this case giving great protection to the corners & rear of the phone.

So in all a well made case that fit's superbly, gives easy access to the various button & connectors whilst saving corners & back cover from scratching & knocks. And like it's name implies you'll barely notice it's on the phone.

My only gripe is it feels a little to silky for my liking, I was hoping it would have a rubberised back for improved grip something a little like a silicon case feel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] aridoasis:
nice review. i just ordered mine, so it's gonna be a long wait before i get it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] opica:
Thanks for the review. I also purchased mine, it was shipped today, can't wait to get it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] n-j-f:
I know what you mean about the feel of the case. I have one on my ipod touch but only because I couldn't get a Flexishield case for it. I have a Flexishield on my Desire and am about to get one for the SGS. For me it has a better feel to it and fees less slippery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] BlackDino:
Great review, I ordered mine about 2 weeks ago. Hopefully it comes in soon :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] epicfailguy2:
Anyone has pictures of the silver one ? I ordrered it but it won't be there before three days or so. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] TieNN89:
Very nice case
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mickeko:
Seriously that keything doesn't mean crap. You think it's the BIG things in your pockets that do the scratches? It's not. Take any sandpaper and swipe ONE time over the glass of the SGS and you'll have tons of scratches, you don't even have to press very hard. It's generally not your keys, a screw or a screwdriver in your pocket that cause scratches, it's tiny grit that does. Every time you wipe the screen you risk scratching it if there's the wrong kind of dirt on either the screen or the cloth you use. That's why people can be however careful and still get scratches, just read around, you'll see. Everyone doesn't bull**** you when they tell you they take good care of their phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] epicfailguy2:
Ok recieve my silver casemate, some low res pictures here. I'll take very good ones later when I get back a hold of my APN charger.

http://picasaweb.google.com/114505993397088135290/CasemateBarelyThereSilver#5524273441974319986

Anyway just imagine OP's picture with that kind of grey/black/silver reflections.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jonni3:
It looks kinda glossy, how is the feel of the case?

I've noticed with mine it's started to feel a bit more rubberized now it's been handled.

@ mickeko

About the screen protector you have a valid point & I am now going to have to rethink not having one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] epicfailguy2:
Yea the screen protector looks ugly ^^ it breaks the harmony of the phone in the area around the front facing camera, you can clearly see the protector cutout that is quite ugly. You do not have this problem on silicon cases as they often cover the side cutout. However I would never go without a screen protector without a pouch, the dust level of my pockets are way too random to take the risk of the godamn dust scratches (the silver case also has that little problem, but they are only visible if you search for them micro scratches of doom).

The case feels good, no creaks.

It's not very glossy, or at least I won't call that glossy, in fact it acts like a mirror if you face it at 90° incidence. But if you tilt it even by 5/10 degrees in mid light conditions, it takes a very nice and not glossy dark/grey silver tint similar to the one of the original chrome bezel of the SGS. They both blend very very well. It is really a BARELY THERE experience. very thin, very stylish. Nearly to the level of a naked iphone 4.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jonni3:
Sounds pretty good & seems like your more than happy with it :D

These case's really complement the phones shape & add very little to the overall dimensions, know what you mean about the screen protector it's not really that attractive, I'm looking for one that covers the entire screen from edge to edge so it doesn't notice.

Looking at your pic's on the pc & it does seem to have that smoked chrome effect like the bezel on the SGS :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] epicfailguy2:
Indeed but the SGS bezel is a little more greenish/blueish in tint but it is barely noticable (you had to get me to check it closely in white light to notice it), both have the same reflection behaviour however which is why it blends very nicely.

I also notice a very faint rainbowish halo (probably there from transparent coating material used over the silver layer) in the backplate reflections, well, it's kind of cool actually.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] BlackDino:
My barely there case just came in, I must say very nice case.

My girlfriend has a cheap ebay one, and this is definitely worth the price.

Good job case-mate
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Fornowagain:
Just a heads up. I had a metallic 'silver' case-mate barely there on my Desire and it murdered the 3G signal strength. Swapped it for the plain black and it was fine. Dunno if you have that issue with the SGS.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] epicfailguy2:
Signal is the same, didn't notice any change 4bars in town.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] collin128:
Just picked mine up today and couldn't be happier with it. Slides in and out of my pocket fairly easily and adds some structural support to the phone which you could argue is a little lacking.

So far I'm very happy with it; I was quite skeptical as I was a long time iPhone (indestructible 2G model) owner and have never used a case.

Haven't had a chance to add the screen protector.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] epicfailguy2:
Told you I was going to make it up for the crap ass webcam pictures :p

Asking about Barely there case?

http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_tr...rely+there+galaxy+s&_sacat=See-All-Categories

Although I see there are no black ones or metallic at the moment, only pink ;)

Just got mine two days ago and must say this is the perfect case for my SGS, could be a little less slippery, but still definitely worth it's money.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] aridoasis:
i just got mine and i'm lovin' it. i have the tough case too, but i just slap it on when i'm out camping or hiking. the barely there case is simply excellent for every day use!

@earlz: this is the official site http://www.case-mate.com/Samsung-Ga...s/Samsung-Galaxy-S-T-Mobile-Vibrant-Cases.asp

it's not as cheap as the ones on ebay but they usually have the items on stock. not too bad. both of my purchases are from this site.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] seltaeb:
Got one too...

This seems to be the only case for Galaxy S commonly available in India, so I got one. Didn't use the screen protector - ok, to be honest, I tried applying it but couldn't get the bubbles out and threw it away after an hour's worth of effort :p

Anyways, the case kind of improves the grip but not sure if it offers any protection (it's "barely there" after all). It still slides in / out of the pouch that the phone came with pretty easily even with the case on, I like that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] aridoasis:
i'm sure it'll do it's job when, say, a minor fall happens. and it prevents the back from getting scratched. just enough protection for every day use.

i also have the tough case (still from case-mate) which i slap on when i go hiking or camping.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] EarlZ:
Would the T-Mobile Vibrant barely there case fit on the international i9000 ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] boyanovv:
Thanks to this review I got mine today.

The case is awesome, fits nicely as expected and looks "stock". Nothing to do with the popular protective sleeves etc.

The screen protector is not as good. Don't count on it unless the fact that the cutout does not fit the screen well is less of an issue for you
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] oopeteroo:
got my barely there silver today, installed it but somehow the left side seems good, but the right side feels a bit uneasy to the finger, if u slide on the screen till u touch the case it feels a bit rough.

should it be that ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] popthree:
wish i'd seen this post before i ordered my silver barely there case.. i got one for my vibrant and it is negatively affecting the signal noticeably.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mootsquire:
Such a ballin' case. Just received the matte black model after reading this review. Got it sent from CaseMate site to New Zealand. only took three weeks HA.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] DaRkMyk:
Just ordered the Black Barely There.. I hope it's as good as what I'm expecting!

..

My Barely There case arrived and I totally LOVE it!!! Highly Recommended...

...

update: I find it difficult to remove the case, It holds the SGS very tight.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] pr0.:
i really wanted white SGP slider but couldn't find any under 50$ with shipping :(

so i ordered barely there in silver color, waiting for it to arrive, seems like a really nice case!
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Kops:
I'm sort of puzzled about this review. I had a clear acrylic initially, and purchased a matte black rubbery sort of Case-Mate, as shown in the OP.

Absolutely love it. I guess to each his own.
[G1 Android Development] chino70:
I'm wanting to flash this G1 i just bought back to the stock rom. I googled and found links of what I need to do, but the problem I'm having is that the G1 says there is no SD card in when there is. I took the SD card out and put it into a card reader to format, but that still didn't work. Anyone know how to get this phone to read the SD card, or know how to flash the phone without using the SD card??

Right now in the about screen is says:

Firmware Version: 2.1 -Update 1

Baseband Version: 62.50SC.20.17U_2.22.23.02

Kernal Version: 2.6.33.3-cyanogenmod

Looks good.
[G2 and Desire Z General] j.books:
one thing I noticed is that when the keyboard pops up, its not swype. I thought it was supposed to come with swype? maybe it does but you have to enable it? but if they advertise it as coming with swype, you'd think that would be the default keyboard. not that it matters to me since I'll install it either way.
[G2 and Desire Z General] navillos:
The pictures are awesome, this phone is gonna rock. Come on kick ass multitouch controller.

Damn finally there's a preview out there. I've been checking cnet and the link you provided every damn day. This is about to own it up.

Thanks for providing the link.

It has swype don't worry.

Looks great. Its the nexus one lil brother thats learn all his tricks :P

But one thing i dont like and i said it before is the placement of the micro usb. How will you make phone cars while its on the charger? Its right there were your hand will go.

*edit

Does the keyboard not ligth up? Whats with that? and

any see what i dont? The with google logo and the G2 logo?

You think its just the test models or will they all be like that?
[G2 and Desire Z General] mtl171:
was flipping through screen shots and their a htc logo at boot. looks like no google and g2 logo. backlit keys would be awesome as well as trackpad notifications.
[G2 and Desire Z General] UnknownPleasures:
That was a prototype model, you can see the engraved serial number on the front of the device.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheManCityLife:
Tight photos but still no indication that it will go into landscape mode w/o sliding up the screen to reveal the keyboard?

If anyone knows. Holla at me.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xile6:
I believe all android phone have the auto rotate. Its just a setting. So we shouldn't have a problem with that the g1 does it
[G2 and Desire Z General] down8:
That setting was found in the Spare Parts app for the G1.

Kidding. Anyways, this is awesome. Im a little obsessed, so Im always reloading the page everyday for updates. Looks like the device im looking for.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
yeah the keyboard lights up. it has a light sensor for the keyboard lights. plus a proximity sensor... darkens the phones screen when you put the phone to your face for a call to save battery. the lcd backlight is also sensor based so it will auto adjust for you too. Those are all features on newer htc models. they come in handy on my mytouch slide. of course, you can turn them off too exept the keyboard light. that one is automatic no matter what. you can hold your hand over the sensor though, lol, but that is never needed. the sensors are EXTREMELY accurate.

Wish it was getting the noise-canceling mic like the N1. Came in handy while driving.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tankmorph:
I wont miss the noise-cancelling mic on the N1.

Whenever people have a hard time hearing me while on a call, I usually have to cover the extra mic with my finger. That improves the sound quality on the other end every time. It never worked right for me...
[G2 and Desire Z General] j.books:
spare parts was only in custom ROMs if I'm not mistaken. the spare parts app provided the extra setting of allowing you to keep your home screen in portrait while auto-rotating otherwise. auto-rotate is a standard feature in android
[G2 and Desire Z General] WilliamStern:
Are we sure that the phone has no "Noise-Cancel" mic on it? In the video provided by Engadget it looked like it did?
[G2 and Desire Z General] tankmorph:
I'm sure now. Holding the G2 and no signs of another mic hole anywhere.

Sorry, but I'm a total noob to Android.

Just updated to jh7 and insantly my usb connection to the computer doesn't work. Does anybody have a solution for this? Is there someplace I can get an older firmware?

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
First of all, try plugging your phone into a different USB port, see if this helps.

Next you can try what has been posted in some other threads. Try going to settings > applications > development > turn on USB debugging. Then plug in your USB and see if you can mount the phone again.

Last resort would be to uninstall and reinstall your drivers.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digger42:
I've tried several different ports on multiple computers. All of them worked right up to the point that I updated the firmware. It has debugging on and I've tried reloading the drivers. When I plug it in, it says that the Samsung modem loads, but the drives don't load after I select "mount".

Thanks for the suggestions, but I think that I've covered those bases. Does anybody have the last firmware that I could try loading?

I suppose I can limp along for a while using dropbox, but it isn't as convenient.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
