The WM 6.1 look without the ROM. (For simple people)

Hello everyone,
I have been experimenting with the WM 6.1 ROM's, like a lot of you, but I have not been completely satisfied with any yet. I am no developer or anything of that such.
This post is for those of you who just want to change your homescreen look and a few minor things, to get rid of that WM 6 look.
I have attached a few .CAB files as well as a black theme.
You will have to extract the HTC_New_default.tsk file to your WM devices "Windows" folder. It will then show up on your themes as HTC default.
These files may have been posted in another thread, but I am starting this thread just to be simple. Feel free to add your HTC .CAB's as well.

Here is a .CAB for the black dialpad.

nice dude!! simple enough

Awesome bro.

Nice Try. At least all those people with no satisfying result or are afraid of upgrading can take help from this work of yours to taste the new interface including the Home Screen Plug-in
Keep the good work up

One question. Is this extract for 3g dialor also make 2g dialor to 3g dialor assuming I have activated the 3g in Advance Configuration Tool

interesting idea for those that "arent happy" with 6.1 or cant get it to work.
You should re-title it though to "I cant believe its not 6.1"

I'm digging it. I also feel the same way... most 6.1 roms are fast right after install but after really using the phone for a week it turns into a turd pretty quick, especialy if you install a lot of apps.
Been using original HTC 6.0 WWE rom without issues for quite some time. I try about every new rom when they come out but I always go back to this one for reliability.
BTW: What com manager you using? Thanks!! GOOD WORK!
Here is the boot screen that I use. Makes it feel more like 6.1 Copy to windows folder on device. Overwrite the old one.
-Enjoy

you'd better make your own "welcome screen" so you can add your own touch in it as a part of the customization you do after flashing a new ROM but it case you like the pre defined ones, here is one from PDA-Corner that I also like.
I hope I'm not breaking the law od copyrights by posting this (please tell me if I do)

Can it be ported safely to Diamond?

Tbh, it's very, very unlikely that it can be ported because it's QVGA first and foremost. However we might be able to extract elements. I hear the scrolling is supposed to be a big improvement amongst many other things.
Finally, I think it's only a matter of time before a VGA version surfaces .
Hope this answered your question.

its seems to be still a mix of 6.1 and 6.5. But none the less its still winmo 6.xxx....it can be done

Strange...this screenshot shows it on the Uni (VGA):

What other improvements do you know of?

anyone looked at the cab files that come with the rom?anything us diamond user could use? (proably not as its not vga but you never know)

Tried them, but no joy. There's 5, the only one I haven't tried is IE, since I didn't see much point.
Haven't noticed any changes to poutlook though. Anyone else?

to me it looks completly like a fake. the right device has completly wm6.1 style taskbar and has touchflo 3d manila background set. ??
but not running manila to huge fonts and so on.
1. its a veryvery very very early 6.5 built or completly fake as we are used from our chinese friends.

Would be inclined to believe a very early build, since the video on WMPoweruser shows the scrolling in action, and not even FTouchSL (a commercial software) has achieved that level of kinetic scrolling yet.

Could this be used on both platforms (GSM and CDMA)?

Read the first post. It is not currently on Diamond.

Looking for a particular rom, need help!

Can anyone hand me a link with a rom that looks like this?

I'm currently using a rom that looks like this, but I'm looking for a similar looking rom with better performance.
No offense to the cooker of my current rom, I'm just too much of a perfectionist...!
Please send me some links!

You could try any 'touchflo m2d' rom, i don't think that you could find one that works with good performance. M2D is just too heavy for our Artemis. Well, at least that's my point of view after testing several ROM's.

agreed
its that M2D interface which is causing you the performance problems you are trying to get rid of.
installing another M2D rom will give you the same issues
some are better than others, browse for M2D in the thread title of roms on here and see what other user's comment are....but i wouldn't post messages in them all asking what the performance is like because we'll all just get a front page full of bumped old threads

Well I use Achile's Youtube Online version 3 from 1/2/2009 and it looks exactly like this, it's fast & stable. The link is her above on the same page.
Best rom I have tested (with best layout), I just flashed back from the latest 6.5 (which was slow & today screen boring).

I agree that the rom from achilles is the best M2D rom there is. I also detest the today screen from the latest roms, so I will stick to this one.
I'm only having problems with a few things.
- my email and text message sound doesn't play at all when receiving a message
- my memory usage is too high
- I can't install a Hotmail-account
- there is no word completion when I compose a message
- I can't switch from conversation mode to single message mode in my text messages
- messages aren't marked as read until the message is opened in the Windows Mobile messaging program
Does anybody know the answer to (one of) these issues?
Thanks!

Help guys I really would like these two things if possible??

I am using build 28008.5.5.0 benko rom ultra lite
I'm wanting to have these two things added to my phone is this is possible?

The first screenshot is a mock-up as far as I know...
There is a theory that it will soon support music play from your lockscreen.
But I could be wrong, if you give a link to that shadowline ROM I can do some research because I would like to have it too!

i heard it was a real project and the was actually written but never implemented... hope they will cause that would be sweeeet
in the meantime you could use S2U2 coupled with S2P that will give you a very similar things more in a iPhone style though

Okay, and if there's anything I don't want on my phone, then it's iphone stuff.
No but those are all third party programs, it would begreat to have it implemented in WM.

I don't like the iPhone neither... still when something is good I don't care where it comes from
S2U2 provides many very good things (that iPhone don't have actually)
- SMS/MMS/EMAIL/MIST CALLS/TASK/APPOINTMENT/ALARM Display and dismiss without unlocking
- 1+ appointments display
- Time and real battery meter (always or when charging)
- weather forecast
- Fullscreen caller ID
- Slide to answer (or not)
- blank screen/lock on talk
- integration/actions on MP3 player S2P without unlock
- system/incall volume control
and that just the basic features...
It is honestly a great tool !!!
Otherwise regarding integrated in WM... I don't know what the MS devs are doing but they better get their fingers out of where they shouldn't be
People are still very cold about getting WM Phones... they even rather by a LG or a Sam-****-sung

Ill have a look and try that program but as some one lse said I don't want my diamond to be abit like the iphone thats why I got it because it#s nothing like it

[REQ] Sense To Do (tasks) list manager

Hy all.
I and probably meni other users are not happy abaut task manager build in Windows Mobile. It's way to hidden!
Task list shoud be visible from home screen. This is the only way I can see what I have to do in comming days.
Sou I made user interface for this app.
It looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If enyone has the time and knolage, this could be big thing

wow...amazing work....have u made it?

I just put some Sense graphic's together and this came out.
Now we need some developer's to make the hard part, and that is modifying the Sens files.
I'm hoping Co0kieMonster could taka a look at this.

BUMP....Great idea!!!

looks awesome. I wonder how much of this is covered by ptasks.
A manila tab would definetly be awesome but not neccessary for me

I tried ptasks... and gave up, it was too slow for regular uses..

...maybe you give "mvcal" a try (www.portablepim.de)
hence the website is in german, the software will be english after installation. If you prefer german, you can switch to it in options->languages)
or you download directly from here
It cannot only manage the appointment, it also handles the tasks in a fingerfriendly manner and combines it with appointments.

Very interesting, this is the function that lacks to sense. it would be nice to share it ou explain how to made it.
thanks

bump!!! I like this!!
Marty

Really interested too.

Would love to have something like this.

Its an amazin idea..it mus be not so hard for the great Developers here on Xda..
Plz sum1 mak this possible..after making the Call History tabs this one is next!

bump bump bump

Look at here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=659089
Not exactly a new tab, however for sure tasks integrated in Sense

yep, i'm using AHT already, it works..
the thread starters "design" just have more eyecandy... i also looking forward to the day, when a friendly dev will make one

Hi digibum,
ask meltwater. He has done FB-Tab and is busy with RSS-Tab. I think he
has found a very good mechanisme to do things like that....

Yep this is just the kind of thing which could be done using the same methods I've used. The whole concept is to remove the difficult sense side and provide a simple way to populate a tab.
If a developer is interested in doing the TodoUtil program (.net side) I can probably provide a shell of the Sense RSSTab which by design is supposed to be generic enough to be populated with any kind of list data.
There are still features I've not yet built into the Sense tab (long press selection, left-hand icon selection, notifications), but as I develop the RSSTab the idea is I can expand what it is able to do.
Even as it currently stands, I don't think there is much that would need to change to get a simple To-Do tab.
