Windows Mobile 6.5 for Hermes?

Check it out
When can we expect this for Hermes? Says HTC have already got it running, perhaps we can get that ROM and customise it for Hermes?

Already has been. Josh Koss has a 6.5 hybrid as well as Tai_sw. Both of which seem REALLY stable...
Cheers...

Sweet! I'm blind sorry
Looks like Josh is up to WM 6.5 Test 4. I might wait a bit longer till he gets a stable build out.
Can't understand which Mobile 6.5 of TAI_Sw's to download??? Prefer Lite ROMs as they run faster.

Ive been running Tai_sw's non ui rom 21139, very stable. Josh's v4 is also very stable. DIfferent Ui than normal today screen. If you don't have too many extra apps installed would suggest trying. V4 has been out for about a week already.
Cheers...

yep it's not production like direct from htc or anything it's very beta and provided from beta sources.. but we're doing the best with what we got

a little dev idea
Hey Josh, been using the 6.5 for a while now, a little diff to get used to but runs very smooth, 1 thought though, would there be a way to split the honeycomb interface into panels that would slide sideways.....ie, the first panel might show the tools icon, file expl icon etc, then the next panel might have the display settings icon and messeging icon, etc.... it could slide up or down or sidways, would not really matter...........just a thought, might involve too much programming, but would navigate much easier than the current flick mode, thanks for any thoughts

WM 6.5
Josh,
First off I want to thank you for the awesome ROM's you throw out there
I was wondering, are you going to post a WM6.5 ROM with Manila 2D, instead of Titanium?

You da man!
Is 6.5 Test 5 much better then test 4
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to download test 5, because of a blocker here at work. Do you happen to have it on your captfiero.com ?
I'd love to use the latest one you got.
Honestly man, I've used a few of your ROM's, and you sir, are truly, da man lol

gimme gimme gimme! Gonna test it and will feedback!
One question though: why does it say 6.5_test3.7z? You stated that test6 is under way?

Results:
Once again I have to mention that I'm not sure which test version this is, but anyways here's what I got so far:
1. The screen is going off for no apparent reason.
2. It's very slow when opening menus. (takes like 4-5secs to open)
wow all the content from the start menu just went on a vacation, nothing's there
and now it's dead! tried almost everything it just wont work.
sorry that I can't give U more info, I'm going back to a stable rom!
Hope to see a more stable test version and I'll give it a another run.

[Theme] Aero Haykuro's 5.0.2Hr5 & Hr3

The credit belongs to Binary100100, He did most of the work. I just got it to work and put in the working browser that does not direct you to mobile sites but keeping bookmarks and zoom. I did not do every app icon. If requested i just might.
Well as always, use at your own risk.

did u have to do a wipe? because ive been trying to do it with the AERO myself but only managed to change framework, and HTC launcher..everything else put me in a loop, if i dont wipe or if i flash my data.img

this port is very basic. NOT like Gloss. Only includes the framework-res and Launcher.
No wipe needed.

hmm.. it just hangs on a screen saying HTC been there for the past 10 minutes :/

nitro or anyone else, not sure if its a valid solution, but moving your Alerts to SD, could work better for you?
If you've seen Prodigal Sun theme, there is a requirement to move the alerts to sd because of the size, I tried the theme before i did it and i was stuck in a loop until i flashed my previous theme back... but after i did the steps of the thread i was able to load it on RC33 and v.8 Cupcake (theDUDE)... its update was 12.4mb
so good luck if that works!
if not sorry i couldnt be of more help

I just downloaded from my own post, to ensure nothing went wrong in the upload. Updated to my phone with NO wipe and im posting from it now. Make sure you were running H build and not G, or the dudes build. This does not require making light.

remove lock screen and its not like the final version of aero theme

please create this theme with the new ADP 1.5H(haykuro) A2SD Rom..

wow thanks alot for porting this, i see u have ported this to alot of different builds thats awesome! im downloading right now

Does this theme work for the new released 1.5 firmware?

Great job on making this port. However, is there anyway you can make it with white text for the notification bar? Thx

thanks again for the fast response!

my theme isnt slow :/... lol
and if its ok with you mohsinkhan47... can I make a windows 7 theme?... I just didnt want to take the idea without asking first...

I am having trouble getting on a computer. So I do most of my picture finding on my phone and I edit on the computer at where I work(Saturday and Sunday). So it takes a while. That is why I created a beta version right now because I am still new at this and still having problems. If you guys could help find pictures or ideas(thx for the ealier post) I could move a bit faster. Thanks helping me out.

Thanks, i like it, looks great!

Anyone have screenshots of this running?

..&& we dont even know what the theme looks like..

I dont want to be mean but....
i didnt flash this but looking at the lockscreen battery in the framework-res, i think you could of done a better a job on it. im sorry if im being blunt, im not here to hurt anyones feelings, but i just think it has some design flaws.
EDIT: for example this is what i mean.
BEFORE mohsinkhan47 edit:
AFTER SiR*Mez edit:

I love the edited battery... I am still new at this so I'm still learning. I was wondering how you did that. The only way I could edit pictures is print(windows). I don't have photoshop or anything like that. And plus I am having hard times flashing this on my g1 to test it out. Development is going super slow. Sorry guys I was wishing to have posted a new update yesterday but was having trouble time flashing. I can't flash my own theme(lol). I don't know why.
------------------------------------
My computer= g1(lol)
Rom=CM 3.6.8
Pm [email protected]

Maybe a couple screenshots would be helpful...

@Ted417
There's a Windows 7 theme already, it was made for RC30 (yeah.. old school lol) and original creator did not update it since. Look it up, you may be able to pull parts of it for your theme. I sported it for a while... good stuff.
Here the link
Good luck

Boot Animation Tester[V 1.02][Will be Theme tester soon]

The other day I read that awesome Tut on how to create a Boot Animation by kusotare [link] because of this I started creating a few animations. While doing this I would test them out by flashing them, I did not like this so I created an applet that will basically animate them for you... Its pretty simple code, I am sure anyone on here could do it(and im sure some one has) but I figured I would share it with anyone who wanted it.
All you have to do is extract the .zip into a folder, and when you want to test your animations drop 'android-logo-mask.png' and 'android-logo-shine.png' into the folder. After you put them into the folder, open(double click) 'BootAnimationTest.htm'. This will open up your browser and show you the animation.
Requirements:
-This requires that you have the JRE installed
-'android-logo-mask.png' should be 256x480(Other sizes will work, but the app will resize them)
-'android-logo-shine.png' should be 512x480(Other sizes will work, but the app will resize them)
If you want, until I make it fix it automatically you can
find dimensions of android-logo-mask.png n put those values in BootAnimationTest.htm
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Future:
-In the future I plan to make it were it doesnt matter what size your images are.
-Turn this into a full fledged theme tester!
Feature Request: If you have an idea that you want me to add to this let me know, and most likely I will do so.
Just added a Video!
Change Log:
V 1.02:
-Added buttons that increase/decrease the speed of the shine

Nice dude...just dimensions get messed....cuz it treats ur boot imgs like theyre full...but its k i just edit the html to my custom dimensions

Awesome, I will have it where it does it automatically though, among other things... I also think I may turn it into a Jar and have it launch in its own window.
Edit - those red dots, are actualy my name... what happened is that you resized it, so it shrunk the applet.

Yea, thats why I made it, I got tired of having to flash over and over to test mine.

Thanks for the kudos on my tutorial. I had a tough time doing it my first time around, and after six or seven hundred of my friends with G1s asked me how i did it, I finally broke down and did the tutorial.
On the other hand, I absolutely love what you've done with the applet. That will certainly make it easier for people to come up with something they'll really like instead of having to tweak-and-flash as most of us have been doing for ages. Excellent work!

Thanks! it really only took me 3 minutes to right but I think it will help me for as long as I make boot animations

hey, the tutorial didnt take me much longer, so dont feel too bad. the longest damn part of it was writing the script for the video down so i could read it back into the mic!
by the way, i added a link to the first post here into the tutorial post. you really did hit a keystone here thats gonna help people. cheers!

How do you guys feel about the speed of the shine? I think I will add a button that will let you make it faster or slower

Helpful, fast and time saving tool...
This is really a great and helpful tool. Its a must have on the utility belt of all theme-er's.
Excellent work...

This is an awesome tool, it'll help me cut down on wearing out my NAND flashing theme updates over and over just to test the boot screen. Thanks a lot!
Edit: Just tried it out on one of my old non used boot animations I had, the 'animation' scroll should be faster in my opinion. I remember seeing it speeding by at least 2x the speed as the applet does it. BUT the buttons to increase/decrese speed would be ideal. Some people may prefer it slower, some fast.
Again great job on this, you saved a lot of trouble!

Is that possible? IF you're able to do that, you'll hear a lot of "I LOVE YOU"s from theme makers, especially me.
I understand it would be a 'rough draft' sort of thing considering the .9.png and such but really just to see everything 'together' before flashing it would be a welcome change than what we can do now.

Yea, I don't think it would be hard at all... It will just take me a while.
Edit - Ok, so I just posted the new build. This build just added the speed buttons. By the end of the week I hope to have a build that is a full theme tester up. I also think that later on down the road I will make this into a JFrame instead of an applet. Also, what is the deal with the .9.png?

Ok I have been messing with themes, and its coming together good. Its going to take me a while because I have school though.

.9.png are images that Android resizes to work in any situation. like the buttons. sometimes they are small sometimes they take up the whole screen. you have to sign them in eclipse for them to work right. check out this thread for a more detailed description of them and what it takes to get them working properly.
if you do make a theme tester I will have kids just so i can name them Burlyskink.

For theme and boot testing...did anybody see the news story about running an emulated Android os (complete with G1 skin) on a Windows PC?
It looks just like a brand new fresh stock G1 and it works. I wonder if that could test out themese and mods?

Ok, before I begin.
I know, I know. WINDOWS 7 on Linux!!!! OMG! HOW DARE YOU!!!!
I understand that some of you will think it's so wrong I should be hung for doing this.
BUT.....There are some, like myself, that like Windows, and so this WIP is for them and I.
I have lots to do, but here are just a few screenshots of what's been done so far. If I get some good feedback on this I'll push harder to get this thing loaded.
I have most of the icons changed, market app icons and other apps not pre installed will not be changed. 1 thing is I don't have the I.E. icon cause I hate I.E. so firefox it is!
I am open to any suggestions.
I will try to get this 100% complete asap. (Didn't know it would be this hard lol!)

looks pretty good, keep up the good work

awesome! i gotta say, the boot screen made me laugh, i'm gonna flash this at work and tell people i have the newest tablet with windows 7.

Nice job man.. i would give a try as soon u have it ready.
Keep it up man.

Awesome man, love it, can't wait ...
Few suggestions:
* WiFi symbol like the wireless connectivity icon on 7 (Not sure how best to demonstrate the bars of signal though, maybe the waves that come out of it?)
* Similarly, 3g/EDGE have the picture of two computers with the globe, lighting each one up for send/receive
* Muted and battery icons
Only suggestions, re-reading those, most would be a pain to implement I'm sure .
Love the dialer too

I like to look of this...
+1!

totally funny and cool!!

Please release ASAP xD

Hoping to have this available for release on Sunday night.
