[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Honey's correct. As long as the stock ROM is deodexed this theme should work fine with it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] hacku:
Honey, here's the image you asked for. If you want it a different shade just ask...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] honeyBfly:
OMG...U R DA BOMB!!! I LOVE IT...sorry for the CAPS but this is exciting....lol
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] honeyBfly:
It does work on the new OTA 3.30

By the way...for the purple peeps out there...I flashed this over Myn's warm twopointtwo rsl-3 (he's running the new 3.30 OTA) and it is working great....no problems to report :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Do you know if you lost sync animations? I'm hearing some static about people losing sync animations after flashing PurpleMotif and/or MattedBlues onto a 3.30 OTA Sense ROM but I haven't been able to confirm it for myself.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] honeyBfly:
Nope...didn't lose sync animations. I have Myn's latest and wipe cache & dalvik/cache...flashed your Purplemotif and it is running great. Not sure what other people are doing but I love my phone.

I even changed out a lot of my icons to color so that most of my my menus are now in color.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Fantastic! Really nice to see someone else progressing in the themeing side of things :) The more the merrier!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SwtSexiness:
Very Weird, I tried this theme, using fresh 3.29 sense, and Evio 3.29, neither has worked, but when I try it on 3.30 ota it will work. Anyone know why that is?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
That's pretty weird considering I used Fresh 3.29 to build it. I'm not sure why this would be without seeing a logcat to show what exactly is breaking after installing it on your phone.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Hey everyone,

I know its been a while but I was wondering if I should update this theme to include the new power widgets mod and to make it compatible with the latest roms.

Let me know. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xlGmanlx:
The wife would love this theme if she ever let me root her phone
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mizzos4:
Hey Beat! Yes, please make an updated version with the power widgets in notifications. I'd love to flash this theme for my gf. Thanks for the great work.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Thanks for the feedback guys. I will be updating this theme and releasing it soon. I have to re-create the entire theme from the ground up but it shouldn't take too long.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
New version for CM 6.1.1 was finished last night and I will be releasing it later this evening.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dlbaker1179:
Will This Be pddated For New 3.70, my wife would love this and i also think it is great!! lol

Thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Yes, it will be updated. I need to bring my wife's phone up to date as well. I just don't have an ETA and am currently maintaining literally 8 different theme versions between PurpleMotif, MattedBlues and a hush hush project I'm working on as well. As soon as I have more news I'll let the thread know.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
I know it's been a while but I decided to update this for both Sense 3.70 AND CM 6.1.2. Enjoy :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dlbaker1179:
Thanks alot
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
You're welcome!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] guitarjockey:
Im glad you updated. My wife us using fresh evo and loves purple but only mattesblues worked with 3.70 so shes glad u updated.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Oh, sweet! Glad I could make you two happy :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xlGmanlx:
beat, this would look hawt with GB purple motif....wife finally stopped being a baby when it came to rooting
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pinkmini:
Chiming in here...Im so glad to have seen so many girls posting in this thread! I was looking for purple too. Im gonna flash this up and let ya know how it works. Im on 3.70 running fresh 3.5 rom

Edit: Just installed and love it! I have a question though about the lockscreen. If I press menu it unlocks. I had originally installed the vanilla lock from the fresh updater and it has done that since install so not sure where the issue lies but its not normal is it? Heres my screen :
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Nice! Once MattedBlues for GB is complete I'll start working on PurpleMotif for GB.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Not sure where the problem lies without seeing your phone but I'd say it's probably something to do with the vanilla lock mod and not the theme. Either way, I'm glad you like the theme :) Oh, and that screenie looks HOT!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pinkmini:
Ok check this post here which addresses the issue I mentioned. But I dont want to apply this because it says it changes the notifications and u cant re-flash your theme after the update. so I will wait for a while and see what comes of it. BTW how could I get that purple droid into my notification bar like Honey did? BTW Honey if your reading Im a huge MC fan too ;)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
Oh, I'm actually updating the theme to include that mod here in the next week or so. My wife demands it :) Keep an eye out for the update.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pinkmini:
Super! Thanks. Also I had a purple market when I installed now its green again. any ideas??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
SNAP! The Market has been updated :( I'm going to have to theme up the new version. For now, if you want the Purple Market back just go into Applications and Uninstall all Market updates. I'll be working on getting this updated just as soon as I can.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pinkmini:
LOl this stuff changes so fast!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dlbaker1179:
will this be updated to gb 2.3 roms
[Droid 2 General] JonandRoid:
I saw once on a droid x that they had no boot screen with any kind of flashing droid eye or starwars animation and the phone booted up in like less than 5 seconds. I was wondering if there was a way to make this possible by deleting a bootanimation.zip or condensing it or any other ideas. That'd be nice. I don't really see any reason for it but to show that you have a droid...??
[Droid 2 General] theecho:
even if you remove the bootscreen you will have a bootscreen. There is one that is built into the android system. The bootscreen only runs until the load is complete but yes you can remove it from the system/media folder and data/local if desired.
[Droid 2 General] jerseyh22accord:
i think what you were seeing was prob that app that mimicks the new sense hibernate/fast reboot. i know the app is in the market and i think it costs like 99 cents. if you are starting your phone up from from a dead battery it will still boot as normal but with the app if you shut your phone off and then turn it back on or reboot it, it will only take like 5 seconds to boot
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TrevorMcCauley:
So today I was pretty pumped to officially make my phone andriod...once i got FroyoStone 3.2 up and running. I went to text my friend to brag and noticed there was no swype keyboard. I can't live without swype! :O So yeah. I did "somewhat" research :D .. and couldn't find anything. So how can I get Swype? Please and thank you. ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] boss.king:
Don't lie. You can't have searched at all. Simply searching on Google would tell you that all you need to do is buy it from the Android Marketplace.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kntdookoo:
Swype is not on the market yet. Do a "little" more research on this forum and you will find some info on how to retrieve.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TrevorMcCauley:
Hey mister. Show some respect (; Check for yourself, its not on the marketplace.

I searched for it and couldnt find any info expect for other people asking the same question and no one answered them either. So if you know any info please tell.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] murgers:
SlideIT (free version) is on the market and is brilliant. I highly recommend it.

Murg
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] roycio:
Is it free? :confused:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dblfstr:
Swype is not a free software. All links to Swype .apks have been removed at the request of the Swype team.

A little research would have led you to multiple threads about "Where can I get sywpe" and all other variations of those trying to locate a Swype.apk. The ones who did find one suddenly realized that the swype releases were all beta - a beta that has now expired; rendering them useless.

You would have also found that there was a hacked Swype.apk floating around that is impervious to any aforementioned beta time limit, and that some users have it. Locating one of these users, now that is the research you need to do.

It is ILLEGAL to disseminate the copyrighted software.

:D

Good Luck!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] murgers:
The free version is yes. I downloaded it only a few days ago... Its a bit lower down the list in marketplace when you search for slideIT.

Murg
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] murgers:
according to this Swype can be found by Googleing the filename. Haven't tried myself i am happy with SlideIT.

Murg
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] boss.king:
Woah sorry, I got confused with slideit. I'll be sure to check the advice I give next time. My apologies :o

WM Last Stand HQ Codeplex Source

New Project Thread

Why Save Windows Mobile?

[I]ok so the reason i amposting this thread is because we all know that windows mobile is dying due to: windows phone 7, android os, web os, and iphone os. i say that is total bs. not just because i am a die hard WM fan but because we are still creating more possibilities for our current WM devices. MAny of us have WVGA devices: topaz, rhodium, leo. and there are VGA, HVGA, and QVGA users out there too. and alot of us either cant change to newer phones because of the plan we are on (im on sprint SERO), no money, or we just want to keep the phones we have. i fall under all the above.
More and more worderful mods are arrising for HTC Sense, like CHT, new tabs, and max manila. we have fully customizable themes for nearly everything. will we see this kind of user capability on WP7? not sure as of yet.
So here is my proposition. We can let windows mobile die like the outside world wants, or we can keep on pushing until it is illegal to do so. [/I]

im just combining all the ideas that i know many of you want to see happen:

In my opinion. the WM UI is so barebone and versatile, all the resources we have now can make this last alot longer. just put the pieces to the puzzle together. If any of you developers out there are interested. please let me know so i can update the post.

TEAM WM

I will try to post more info as i create it or find it

TO BE CONTINUED......
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] retsam88:
+1 to this,

I'd like to see some development on Windows Mobile. I know programming is kinda hard for this OS, but still, within talented hands still you can make wonders.

Devs are abandoning WM, because it's easier to do so.

Also don't force into new hardware, as most people cannot afford or change phone every 1-3 months. Also I like my HTC HD2 as it is.

IMHO Windows 7 phone OS is plain bloatware.....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] coolsac32:
Here are some updates

http://sacdev.codeplex.com/releases/view/59079
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] c_shekhar:
Good idea.

Personally I have tried Android on my HD2 and come back to WM 6.5.2 as WM still has convinience of functionalities relevant to corporate/business environment.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] coolsac32:
Yeah im trying to get more people to hop on while there is still stuff going around for WM.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TeDeV:
ok guys i got an invitation to this "WM Group" and i fully support it. Yes i am one of those people that believe, that winmo can do all the things that other platforms can do.

Tell me what android can do better than winmo for example. All that it has (and winmo cannot have) is animations. You wanna talk to me about the marketplace? Yes sure, it is a nice free library that you can find almost anything fast, but still this can work on winmo too, the only problem is that a lot of apps are paid in winmo (and they should be, developers need support, they don't work for fun)

WP7 is a useless thing. Microsoft had something with 1000 potentials, and they gave us something with 100. All it can do is play xbox games. The guys didn't even include silverlight or flash or countries support (good luck with that). Don't tell me that it will come with the next update and blah blah blah. They had like 5-6 years at least in order to complete this "operating system", and the final result was a black themed iphone with boxes.

I was testing WP7 on my HD2 earlier, and i was thinking that at least 60% of the things i was seeing there, can be transfered to winmo.

Anyway, it is true that a lot of developers have moved over to android or wp7 or iphone. I don't think that there is a chance of bringing them back, but i do believe that a new developer team can take place, and fill in the "gaps". But these people need motivation, and most of the time, this means donations. People go where money go.

I am doing my part with RapidRead :), when i saw that TapaTalk was not going to happen on winmo, i was pissed, so i decided to do it on my own.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OndraSter:
This will be hard for me to write, as I really like WM too, but here we go:

WM is based on 5 or maybe even older kernel, optimized for devices with crappy or no GPU acceleration, rendering all on CPU. Everything is done on CPU. And as much as it is optimized, there is not enough CPU power for the rest of the system. If the system would incorporate newer drivers (as WP7 does from MS) and render all IE, UI, ... on GPU, half of the job would be done.

Now move to the other part - app programming.

WM is featuring a lot of similar code to desktop Windows, even more in .NET environment. But just take a look how much it also misses! It lacks any D3D/OpenGLES development! Well there is some D3D in .NET, but it is really stripped down. No universal OpenGLES and so on, and so on, and so on.

WP7 brought us (developers) awesome Silverlight with XNA support for gaming (DX9? I've seen some DX11 libs in system btw), enabling people to write one core for game and run it on all PC, phone and xbox and just always enahance the control to mouse and keyboard, touchscreen or Xbox controller.

Also not forget about lazy programmers for WM that lack any optimizations, or any suspending when not used - it is normal on winmo to have running app on background eating your battery and half of your CPU.

Should I continue?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TeDeV:
yeap, 90% of what you said, is that MS gave you a platform (WP7) to play games. go buy a psp instead of a pda
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OndraSter:
It isn't all about games. WM is filled with glitches that MS isn't going ever to fix. Like taskbar often going blank (not repainting). These glitches force you to reboot the phone - and how can you use that, when half of the time you have to reboot it each time you do something?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TeDeV:
taskbar going blank on winmo?

like never EVER happened. not even once. i didn't even know about that.

my WinMo is rock solid, i guess you need to change roms or apps :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OndraSter:
It happened me on all ROMs on all devices I had (Kaiser, TP2, HD2). My own ROMs, stock ROMs, other's cooked ROMs ;).

Do not mention Opera 10 getting stuck in background (and not to be able to re-launch it without reboot, since you can't have two modules or files in memory with the same name). Let's face it, WM is old and new OSes provide way better options and opportunities.

On the other hand, WM is PC with phone. Android is phone with PC. WP7 is cool phone. iOS is cool phone.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] coolsac32:
Ok we are not here to argue although i understand where youre coming from. i do have an itouch because i like games on the iphone but as far as the overall picture WM has proved to be a working medium between a computer and a phone which most of us really need and use throughout the day. Lets face it. When a new app has its 15 minutes of fame and your friends all bragg about it. maybe you will miss out on that. but is it really worth spending $100s for something new when there is no need to?

we dont need to live on our phones it just needs to be with us. and i think the philosophy is opposite for Apple especially. Viva la iphone killer!!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OndraSter:
So I got like half hour ago totally mad WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT WP7 CAN'T SYNC ANYHOW NORMAL XLS OR DOC without sending it over internet (email, download it from web). Then I got * on not supporting BT keyboards. Then I got even more * FOR NOT SUPPORTING TETHERING.

Then I got * on Android for another ton of stuff.

And now I am back on WinMo, ready to build perfect OS for phone. On WinMo, everything works. Although there are parts that * me too - sometimes getting stuck, whole VM engine, rendering of graphics, nearly zero games that are worth playing (okay, FPSeCE is good).

WP7 is baby, very young, not capable of doing stuff that I am used to do. And WANT to do.

Android has very bad (at least from what I expected from it) Bluetooth capabilities. Even iPhone owns Android with BT support from what I want.

I am going to need a lot of developers, source code to WM and WP7. Who can help (mostly with the 2nd and 3rd part), PM me. The 1st one after I get the 2nd and 3rd one, thanks :P :D.

Although taking iOS source and modifying it would do the same job haha :D. That's another option LOL.

Sorry, I had to get it out :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Trekfan422991:
The thing that really bugs me about the whole growth in smartphone popularity is that when you here about a new app or feature that one of the two leading os's just got or can do... and i can almost garuntee that windows mobile can do it or already had done it...

i see my friends loving their speech to text on their android devices and i tell my phone everything to do through my bluetooth headset.....

wm was way ahead of their time ...

i too have had the taskbar malfunction one too many time but as i look around for a device that i would like to get like an android phone or wp7

i can't help but come to the conclusion that the best viable option is to get an htc hd2...

this way i can try android and wp7 or go back to what i know and love...

people laugh when they hear you have a windows mobile phone... only cause they are told about them from other people like they are the ancestors of the smartphone ... which they are...

but i am only 19 ... 20 in two weeks... and i have decided to hold off getting anything else besides wm until there are non left in the world...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] c_shekhar:
I agree. I too have come back to Winmo 6.5.2 and satisfied for everything being fully functional...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Jaxbot:
I'm glad people are stepping up to the plate ;) I haven't developed anything for WM in a long time, since I felt many people had stopped caring about it. Looks like I was wrong. The rendering engine is a real challenge on WinMo, but with almost full access to the entire system, development is so much easier than on WP7.

Long live winmo ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JukEboXAuDiO:
I agree with you guys whole heartedly. I received a Windows Phone 7 phone from Microsoft for free for testing but it runs on T-Mobile. I onlyhave it for 2 months and Verizon is not coming out with a WP7 phone for god knows how long silo I will be back to my WM phone. I have and always be a fan and have been keeping up with the projects and software as much as I can. I efgen had a hand in a few projects. Check my signature for my software thread and I will continue to support this thread without gusto.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RedRamage:
I would love to see more developing for Windows Mobile.

Highest on my list would be a fantastic Google Voice client.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Abdul9.:
Ok i read everything you guys wrote and i totally have to agree with you guys. Winsmob could has the potential of being the best os out there but what did microsoft do? They just abandoned it and try to do a fresh start with a less than 50% complete os. Dont get me wrong i like wp7 (well only cos of the keyboard), i loved winsmob better with all the feathures even if some are not consistent and there are not some many apps out there. Its just that i'm not a developer but if i could i would reprogram winsmob with features i like in other os. I know its not as easy as i make it seem but hey thats just how i feel.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mal93:
i would also be cool to a have a decent facebook application and a decent youtube application for windows mobile 6.1

Development of WM

I am a real WM lover. Love my HD2 fully functional on WM platform.

Still there are developers who are totally dedicated to WM.

Sir. Sternas has introduced his WM 6.5.5 ARTEMIS long ago.

Now he has reached the 5th generation.

Stable, functional, fast and professional for everyday business.

Sir Sternas is a kind of developers who is committed to WM no matter what competition is out there.

I believe we, WM lovers, need more like this gentleman to develop applications.

I still love my WM HD2,

Will never switch to Android or even WP7.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] SdKfz.171:
Maybe it's something to do with HTC devices - anything from your list I've never experienced on my ASUS. But - as you say - let's face it:

if you want only a phone, you can buy a dumb-phone

if you want a phone plus some entertainment gadget, go and buy iPhone or wait for that PSP phone

if you want your ass be owned by Google, go and buy Android powered phone

but if you want a really, really useful device, you can buy only WM 6.x device

WM 6.x is system for Pros, who want to make calls, send e-mail/SMS, use navigation, collect and edit data, sync with Exchange and so on... and there is no fully-fledged replacement on the market today.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pepapol:
OndraSter: Sorry pal, but the kind of **** that keeps happening to your WM never happened to me. I have a HD2 with Artemis rom v25 and it's as smooth as a kid's ass. No bugged task manager and it's really fast - no lags at all. The only thing that sucks is lack of flash support in Opera but that's a problem with mobile browsers in general, not tied to WM. Too bad Skyfire doesn't work anymore. Anyway, it's great that there are people who are not ready to just let this OS die. I know it's not really user-friendly for the general population. Hell, they can buy WP7 or iPhone, but for the ones who like to tweak their device, WM is still a good choice.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ch3fkoch:
+1 from germany,

I'm so feeling completely the same as you guys...

WP7 is fast and fresh und has got a lot of potential, also I like the clean look, but it seems like it's just a damn beta. no hidden wifi? no proxy settings? and why the hell are they trying to keep devs from customizing? isn't that one thing that has pushed WinMo that far?

they really should concentrate more on usability, e.g. for everydays usual events in a PocketPC's/ Smartphone's life, things my last devices handled without problems SINCE WITH WinMo FIVE...

For now i can't hardly wait getting back my TP2 from repair, customizing the hell out of that thing ^^ (nothing to make better with the fully customized htc elf backup-winmo-device :P) try that on WP7 =D
