Got bored with the original 'phone' skin on my XDA2s.
Is there a way to change it?
Where to download?
Thanks in advance.
How can you not like that lovely black or silver finish and the stylish keyboard in red or blue..... Ohhh, you mean PocketPC 2005
Search for PocketPC Themes, there's LOADS. Get them from all over the place. Or download the Microsoft Theme Maker from Micorsoft.com/pocketpc and roll your own

I can recommend Bong's Workshop Dialpad Maker Deluxe, there's a couple of dialpads on my theme site that I knocked up with this app, it's very simple to use, but I haven't gotten round to doing many yet.
I agree that Bong Workshop's Dialpad software is great for phone skins - if you have a good graphics editor, you can realy customise the look and feel of the phone - It pretty good value to at about $10 to download (£5 plus a bit)
I would greatly apprciate a viewing of what skins are being used by anyone interested in giving us a glimps of what everyone is using to spruce up their wmp skin.
I also pose the question when the phone like mine Alltel PPC 6800 goes landscape does the new skin used have to have new landscape skin files as well?
Here are a few: http://www.pdagold.com/themes/list.asp?tp=8

And of course a vista theme: http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-vista-windows-media-player-theme-skin.html
Thanks for your input.
Hi..
I´ve installed PocketShield and works fine in my HD. They recommend enable standard Windows 6.1 dialer due delay response in incoming calls and others problems with HTC dialer skin. I´d like to find some skins for standard WM 6.1 dialer. I´ve searched in forum but only find HTC HD skins dialers, not standard. Any idea?
Thanks friends..

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Look at this registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin
and set "Enabled" from "1" to "0".
I know this tweak, thanks. I only want or request to change default standard dialer skin (functional but ugly) ..
We can change default dialer from PocketShield directly without entering in registry. No problem.

PAY attention to the Resolution!!!
You could Create your dialpad if you change the files in zip-archive
D'rath
PS: make a backup of the files
Yeah...problem is in resolution of them (VGA max). I´ll try to learn more about creation of WVGA skins from VGA..
Thanks a lot

WoW.. I´ve found one skin with WVGA resolution in Diamond forum. Dutch Sephiroth is the creator and is called Diamonddish skin : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3934313&postcount=14
I´ll try it..
Edit: Just done. Perfect...

Just a quick post to say that thanks to the wealth of information on here i've migrated from the incredibly slow Pocket CM Manager to the lightning fast Resco Contacts Manager - its an excellent piece of software, little memory useage, finger friendly, quick to respond etc etc.
What people may not know is that if they have a registered earlier version and upgrade to the latest edition (1.11) it has an alternative, Black skin, so fits in with the HTC / Touchflo colour scheme & livery. Its a minor detail, but i thought someone out there might appreciate knowing... the .cab file is at the Resco site
Anyway, just wanted to express my gratitude - you guys on here really have helped me to continually make my Blackstone an essential and excellent piece of technology.
Hi, would like to try to develop some applications for my HTC Diamond, but would some apps i download have a nice skin that looks like the built in apps in the phone, but when i develop some applications they are standard old windows apps, that dont look nice.
So my question is how do i make them look like the built in apps, with the styled buttons and so on, do you guys use some sort of skin for your apps?
Or do you allways make the buttons etc, in a program like photoshop or similiar?
Thanks
Dan
