Hey guys,
I used to use Wisbar Advance before I started flashing. There was a cool skin on there that I liked called Windows Vista Portable. Well, after I flashed to 2.5 I got bored and re-installed it. By coincidence, all of the colors for the Vista Aero Dark Skin match the Black 2.5 colors and it ended up looking pretty cool. I took some screenshots for anyone interested. The Vista theme seems to be running much faster with black 2.5. Kudos again JJ!
For the Wasbar Advance 2 software visit www.lakeridgesoftware.com
They also have a plugin called WAD (Wisbar Advanced Desktop) which allows you to make your own theme. IMO i takes a lot of time and the newest version is a little buggy.
You can find the theme here: http://xcskins.50webs.com/ourwork.html
I'm proud to say it's from a dutch dude!
Which App
Hi
Like the screen shots but please could you let me know what app that is that allows the icons to be displayed in the title bar.
Thanks

As per the OP, he is using Wisbar Advanced Desktop. If you are interested you can purchase it from lakeridgesoftware.com
Looks like a skinned PhoneAlarm, too...
Just a small clarification before you purchase anything from lakeridge software. I am using Wisbar Advance 2. Wisbar advance Desktop (WAD) is a plugin for Wisbar Advance 2 (WA2), which allows you to make your own themes, customize desktop, etc. Everything you see in the screenshots is from WA2. I downloaded a theme (Vista Portable) from
Http://xcskins.50webs.com/ourwork.html
and run that from WA2. So if you are looking for something like you see in the screenshots, you do not need to purchase the WAD plugin. BTW lakeridge has its own forum community which is really helpful if you have other questions.
Good Luck!
is anyone else having trouble getting this link to work?
What link?
How can i put an image in the operator name, like the AT&T logo on the screens?
the link to download the skin.
Here the link is ok!
Here is the link for the newest version:
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=8727
When you download the theme, install (copy the folder and drop) into:
program files\lakeridge\wisbar advance\themes
Go to wisbar advance settings and on the first screen select the theme. If you download the screenshots in the first post you can see the settings page.
The link that I posted earlier does work, or you can try this link above, or you can google "Windows Vista Portable". You will want to downlaod the qvga version. Hope that helps.
Good Luck!

It's not working for me either.
Just as a bit of info, WA2 has a memory leak that is being worked on. So if anyone is really interested in WA2, realize that issue exists. As someone mentioned earlier, read the forums there for more info.
Otherwise, it's a great program.
aVast antivirus detects a trojan in the download. Anybody else get this?
What software could i use to create my own themes for WM6?
thankyou

I too would like to know if there's a good theme creator around...
I've tried this:
http://www.codeppc.com/telechargements/themegence/themegence.htm
but it's not very intuitive and I can't work it all out properly...still trying with it though
If anyone has any tips to get the best out of it for making a WM6 theme, please post
Smiffy.
Why did this thread die?
has anyone found some good theme creating software yet? if so can you share?
Thanks bennec83
I use ThemeMaker McDeb ( http://www.mcdeb.com/tmmcdeb/ ). It works with WM6, too. The only thing I'm not able to do, is to determine the taskbar color. It seems that WM6 is generating that color (or the glass effect) from one of the other colors.
I use ThemeGenCe
It has good features but lousy UI
But i recommend it

Definitely - if there's anyone who's got either some proprietary software or cleverly made their own and wants to share a link, deffo please do so - I abandoned trying yonks ago through lack of getting anywhere. The software I tried was either not suited to WM5 & 6 or had very poor UI.
wm6 themes
hiya,
I've had same problem trying to find easy to work
with software for making thmes. I finally gave up trying though and took
up mixing and matching existung themes from others.
Currently using Wisbar 2.7.x as the LCARS theme doen't like 2.8 or above
and Wisbar advanced desktop 1.2
while these are commercial packages, there tons of free themes tostart
you off on lakeridge sofware's website forum and I even found a few really keen
ones on a russian site 4PDA.RU
Google the following Wisbar to get the software
then google 4PDA.RU wisbar and look for the wisbar skins and thmes link to thier page
theres like at least 20+ skins and themes there and more on the lakeridge software forums
enjoy. note: normally I'd post links but I'm in my car at moment using
my hermes bluetooth internet sharing for the hsdpa speed it gives and
I'm posting this from my HTC Blue Angel hahaha yea bigger screen and is why I'm still
mad T-mobile wouldn't work me a deal on the Ameo
I'm not exactly sure if the TouchFLO has to be on a touch screen phone, but I've seen pics of this 2D version of TouchFLO floatin' around and I'm wondering if it can be ported to our phones?
Anyone know?

Shucks. Maybe in time...
all the cabs are available in xda development and hacking forum. But the total install is around 26mb. I installed on my tilt last night and its pretty sweet. Dpad navigation works, so maybe a possibility that it could work, just have to try it. They also have the oems available for using in roms. Maybe nrg can cook it into his rom.
Has anyone here tried this yet? Its working almost perfect on the shadows, so the only reason you might have problems is the landscape compared to portrait layout. But that could be worked out, the main thing is that it will work on wm standard if anyone's interested in it.

It's only for htc phones right now, so I can't try it on my blackjack before it sells to let you know any more than that. I can tell you on the tilt, that this is a great interface plugin.
showaco-where is download link and instructions ?
I have htc s620 and i have to try.

thats just a matter of changing the settings xml for the image layout and changing size of background images, wouldn't be to hard, just takes a little time on spacing adjustment. The zip with all needed cabs is in the first link. shadowmike may have changed some of the files to use on smartphone, i'm not sure. He's supposed to have his done this weekend and should be available on allshadow.
NRG should get this for excaliber/dash if he's serious about making a rom.
Nice, how about that HTC Viva, I think its using the same processor as the Dash, but with native TouchFlo, can't wait.
Re: TouchFlo
If someone could put the XML code up then we could all do our little bit here, all we would have to do is highlight change and the original post could be corrected
Then all we need a test bed shore Reeg would be into this?
Just trying to make us all involved
I know this would be simps for showaco
i sugest-give us all needed files in one zip archiva with instructions for instalation.
thanks

Manilla Touchflo2d is now working on htc smarthphones for anyone interested. The layout is for portrait, but is has a xml file that you can adjust all the tabs, icons, text etc , so that it will view correctly on the dash/excalibur. Here's a link to all the files needed and a good thread on setting it up for smarthphones.
http://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3354&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=40
The files and links are about half way down the page along with install directions and lots of screenshots.
Anyone would care sharing their xml for the dash? I'm not too good with those sort of things...
Cheers

If I install this do you know if I could still use sliding panels if I wanted.
Sure, if someone shoes me the way i'd be glad to contribute as much as i can!

Hey y'all
so,
while we're all waiting for our "Dreams" to show up on the 22nd, this would be a lot of fun to play with. If anyone figures it out, and could even just write down how they did it, I'd REALLY REALLY appreciate it, as I'm sure everyone else would as well. Thanks!
I've bn working on it for about 4 days now but I don't have alot of time. I know that show has been doing some work on landscape as well.
I offer myself as a test dummy for it. Just tell me what to do. It seems to be quite impressive. I hope showaco will come out with some good stuff

hey gorap, have you already installed it on your dash? You have to move the tabs first so you can see them. I've got some of the landscape values for home and weather. The programs page auto adjusts to fit I believe. The wallpaper background has to be widened as well(hh_fw_background.png).
Can someone help me find the link for the SmartToolkit add-on's, i cant seem to find em even with search, thanks.

Hop over to Dev & Hack find SmartToolKit as geo the skin maker has a new thread would be worth asking him

Hello guys , do you know if exists a cab or a patch created for download Youtube videos on WM 6.5 ?????
Thanks
Closest thing to a youtube downloader is youtubeplay, as far as I know. It's a separate program that can play or download youtube videos. The only drawback is it only works with the lowest quality videos.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2660344&postcount=1
This program is OLD and isn't useful with WM 6.5 . I would like to see a cab that add to original youtube player a tab for download videos ...like the Palm Pre or iPhone "jailbreaked" ...
Developers , GET UP !!!!!

um....really? Sure you don't want to rephrase that request a little? Unlike the devs on your planet, ours don't just sit around waiting to be ordered into action by an anonymous party with an immdiate "need"
"...Does anybody know of anyone working on this type of thing now, or anybody who might be interested in giving it a shot? I'd be happy to provide input and feedback to anybody that is, or would. Thanks in advance!"
-there, I fixed that for you
