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
Andy

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
Massimo
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.

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

When I bought my first PPC, I didn't have a clue on how to mod it, or do any of the cool stuff I saw other people were doing. I read the forums for a good week, and tried to find out all the info I could. Afterwards, I tried a few mods and they worked! There were a couple of times where I couldn't figure something out, THATS when I posted and asked questions that were answered by forum members. You have to do some reading, research & experimentation about things first, you can't just post a general question and expect everyone to spoon-feed you the information. Read a few threads dealing with how to do what you want to do, use the search, and you will see someone has asked the same questions you have now. Download the .CAB files you need, and happy modding!
thanks mate
all i want to know is if i am using the right software i download something name the diamondtf3d i can chage the skin but the skin comes like half way down the screen i guess that because it was design for the diamond which has a small screen so i want to know if there is a version for the blackstone
Depends on the theme. Some themes can be obtained by just replacing manilla files in your Windows folder. Search for instructions in the appropriate theme thread.
Regards,
Carty..
thanks mate
well right now i am using a program name diamond tf3d config and the themes are coming like half way in the screen can some one help me plz
can the diamond TF3D config used to edit/add themes for HTC HD / blackstone? will there be any problem?
Using a Diamond tool on your Blackstone/HD could cause trouble because the screen resolution and size are way different (Blackstone 480x800, Diamond 640x480)
Hey everyone!!
My name is Hugo and I'm from Portugal.
I've just made a theme for WM and Christian's Rom for the SE Xperia X1
This is my first theme so be kind!!
DOWNLOAD LINK [Updated October 25th (colour bug fixes)]
----//----
This theme is based on the Classic Blue theme and the background is used under authorization from Trey Ratcliff pay him a visit, it's worth it!!
If you have any problems with the theme please let me know so that I can try to fix it thank you!
[EDIT 2009/10/25] I found a couple of issues with the theme and I'm in the process of correcting them, it has to do with some of the colours being displayed improperly, will update the download link as soon as possible.
oh.. and BTW, I don't mind if you guys link the theme in blogs, twitter or whatever else, but please don't just link the file, link back to this post, that way if I update the download link your posts will still work
[EDIT 2009/10/26] got a new theme for you, it's still a version of "HF Clear" but, as requested I've created a "HF Burgundy Clear" theme.
I think I've got all the kinks out and think it looks good.. what do you say?
DOWNLOAD LINK
you can check the screenshots in a post below

Glad you like it.. as for the builds it works with, well.. it's supposed to work with pretty much any WM6.5.x build since it's based on the Classic Blue Theme, I just messed around with the transparencies on some of the files..
I wasn't thinking about making a red/burgundy one, I guess I just like dark and simple things.. but.. well.. I'm looking at the device right now.. it would look good wouldn't it? hehehe
greetz!

Hi Hugo, I am from Portugal too, and I really liked your theme.
I have a question, and as you are the only PT I've seen identified, I want to ask you something that is not really related to your theme.
Can you tell me if there is a good, stable, clean and fast windows mobile 6.5 ROM pt version?
I know it might be too much to ask, but a PT would be very helpful to me.
Sorry again to off topic, but I would appreciate your input.
Thanks (Obrigado).
great themes.... i just write it in my blog.

hey dude
I don't think that there is a WM6.5.x PT rom out there for the X1 but then again, I never looked.. hehehe mine came from the UK, I really don't like my software in Portuguese.. it's an old thing with me, when I started messing with computers it was all in English so I just kept with it hehehe
Glad you like the theme though I will be updating it since I've found a couple of glitches with the original one..
Hey man great theme, keep it up definitely loved it
nice update
nice update
cant wait to see what ya do next redish...lol
Nice one mate Will check it out as soon as I got my xperia back!

sorry.. the theme is for windows mobile, I believe the TouchFlo uses themes of its own, so no, I cannot fix it.
Great job
sorry it took me so long to download and give some feedback, works been crazy.
I just installed it, and i love it man
i wonder though...with other themes I have, they have kinda rounded corners...like on the top bar and on the bottom...in the corners..
do u know what i mean?
but i do love it

Doesnt matter what ROM you are using, it is a simple cab install...
Download the cab file (link on first post).
Then use your file explorer, or total commander or whatever file explorer you use...
Double click on it, and it will install on your device..
Then go to Settings/HOME/ and HF CLEAR or Burgundy will be one of your options in APPEARANCE....
then just highlight/select it and click okay...
And your Done!
Hugo, can´t live without manila! How could i had my phone for almost a year without putting a rom in it?!? So i can´t tell u a lot about pure rom´s... for me the tab´s are everything!

Hello
Is it possible to port this SPB Mobil Shell Theme to HVGA?
Sadly the developer will not do it
Or at least this Taskbar?
I think they look very awsome
Damn.. found another nice (CHT) Theme here.
Any ideas how to port this to HVGA?

Hola, most of it should be no problem and should work, but some trial & error is needed since the CHT VGA Port consists of "only" three manila files /(two Lua´s and one mode9). I´m checking on some peculiar things about the mini atm (I also have an HD2) to see what all is needed to adapt "any" HD2 CHT Theme for the mini - taskbars excluded cause they need their own dlls
I would love to have Dark Ninjas Android Taskbar...

I am not sure that is great theme but... i will try .
I like simple SPB layout but with some new widgets/icons/bars - that's what i am waiting for.
At this moment i am searching for something to edit registry or just add reg-keys.
After testing i will share my opinions.

For registry, you could try resco, SKTools, or to do it while connected to the PC and from your PC search for "CeRegEditor"
Damn, HD Mini is very unlucky model :/
- manila 2.5 is very unmodern, not setupable interface (100 times worse than Android ones).
- All Manila modifies on forum are author visions and many times fonts or bgs they us are not acceptable. Also amateurs dont have posibility to make own files cuz we cannot fins realy good made tutorials for dummies.
- Oryginal SPB is the best interface but visualy quite ugly.
- SPB skin authors dont port their job to HVGA or make new ones on it (Even W7Theme is more WVGA skin and working bad on HD Mini).
- Finaly great application - CHT2.0 is also only ported to HVGA. All WVGA widgets are unsharp and many times displays wrong. Also CHT got huge fake - after uninstal some skins like Windroids, base program cannot turn back original icons and all interface is broken.
Only hope is SPB 5 with full support for HVGA will give us new fresh.
Till then I am praying for simple threads with lessons how to manualy rebuilding manila or CHT modules.
HD Mini got great look and best shape i keep in my life. Whats inside this model is mistake .

Still no themes compatible for our HD MINI?
SPB
It works fine, however, and most beautiful sense, at least not develop the themes HVGA.http://spb.com/products/mobileshell/
HVGA is fail resolution as well as HD Mini is failphone, support for HD Mini was droped as soon as the model was released, theres no chance anyone would do anything for fail phone with fail resolution and fail old OS ... get used to it, buy Desire S like me. Kept the mini just for lulz.
