Different Colours
Hi,
I tookthe original files posted, and i have applied some different effects to them using Adobe CS3 Masters Suite.
I have enployed an infrared effect over one set, and the other has has a greyscale filter applied to it but i have played with the saturation levels of the colors.
These look better for use with Dark themes, like HTC_Touch Grey and Black Themes
enjoy

sweetboy, that 8 looks as if it is upside down ... maybe got struck by the lightning one too many times?

How to change Menu & App bar color (first boot/default)?

I cannot get a WM5 "like" top and bottom bar for first boot under WM6/.1, tried setting a theme in OS and then using the BASEHUE value, it works for color but not for the 3d look of WM6, I'm after the flat look. Searched high and low to no avail.
Any advice appreciated tia.

BUMP
Somebody must have an idea please?

If I understand your post, a "flat look" of WM5 can be achieved by using a WM5 theme on your WM6.1 device. Try this .tsk file and then change the basehue value to see if that works.

The theme and BaseHue value are not the issue, I want my "custom rom" (appearance) on first boot to have flat black look, it doesnt really matter thanks anyway.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Windows Mobile 6.1.tsk]
"COLOR_TITLEFLATCENTER"=dword:00194A00

I was able to get the top bar black by using 00000 for the dword value.
How do I edit the color of the bottom bar?

[Theme] [PocketCM Keyboard] v1.11 [3/16/2009]

A PocketCM Keyboard .23+ WVGA theme I made for the large of finger so you can worry just about what you want to say instead of trying to spend all your time pecking at each key and getting it right.
Features:
Virtual D-Pad
Long press on any letter to get uppercase.
Long press on almost any key for quick access to similar symbols.
Shift button is caps lock.
I made every key as large (tall (with big layout and wide)) as possible.
Has larger room for correction / allowed mistakes than standard keyboard to allow for less pickiness on large screen (WVGA).
Landscape finally works.
English qwerty.
Optimized as much as possible (including all images) for speed and size of theme.
Hold "!" for "!! "
Hold "?" for "?? "
Hold "," for ".com"
Hold "$" for "€"
Only bugs / quirks I'm currently aware of:
Not sure of what the height for landscape should be. (If you are using a full screen app (such as PocketCM) the current height is great, otherwise..it takes up pretty much the whole screen. Easy to change. Go to settings.ini, and change the last value from 27p to something more like 23p.)
Correction currently will not go through when any symbol is entered. Suggestion will go through only when the following are pressed immediately after a word is entered
space
!
@
Based off Tene's dream theme, so looks are the same.
Credits to of course tene and and also zard for assistance with the virtual keys.
Credits also to MrHawaii of PPCGeeks for a few ideas.
UPDATE 3/16/2009 V1.11
Started over from scratch.
Removed "Hold space bar for ". " (period and double space)." temporarily until I hear further from Tene on how to make it work more correctly.
Made suggestion 19% more forgiving, allowing for 19% further displacement from correct key. Think that is the farthest I will go, though I can bump it up if requested.
Suggestion will currently (until I hear from tene on how to fix it) only go through on the following
space
!
@
UPDATE 3/11/2009 V1.1
Added:
Hold comma key for ".com"
Auto - double space inserted when period, exclamation mark, or question mark pressed.
Hold space bar for ". " (period and double space).
Fixed:
Correction now goes through even on ?!.,
(Isn't actually as blurry as it looks on the thumbnail)
PCMK can be found at pocketcm.com

Updated. Small fixes and enhancements. See OP.

Thanks!
Use it on my Touch HD and its working fine!

Good to hear thx. Just re-uploaded, realized there was a small typo in the settings file, causing the "hold "!" for "!! " not to function.

That really all the information you're gonna give?
Lets have some details
What your default language is, what your screens resolution is (I'm not familiar enough w/ the omnia), what options you have selected in pcmk, a screenshot of the problem, what version of pcmk you are using, etc..

actually the more I look at it Im going to guess it cant be moved as its stuck to the top of the text window.. would the adjustment of the last value in the setting.ini you mentioned above help this?
sorry for the lack of info prior..
tnx

Yep that's what's going to do it for you is just the height. I have it set for my device right now. The text box can't be moved / resized (except by tene), but if you lower the height of the whole keyboard then you should be good, I would recommend 24 or so.

Shift Key Graphics
Thanks .. this is a great theme!!
I see Shift key and up arrow key similar.. I just wanted to change shift key graphic to display "Sft" words in Image. I replaced shift.png in zip folder but it didnt work. How can I do this?

Message removed - posted in wrong thread.

Hi Jim,
Thanks for such a great theme! It's by far my favorite.
I was just wondering if you have released a new version of it since V1.11?
I'm not sure if I've found a bug, but, I've noticed that when I use any kind of punctuation (period, question mark, etc) it seems to be added to the beginning of the last word entered. For example instead of "I am home now.", I get "I am home .now". Is this behavior by design, or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!

ima noob. how do you get your skin to take affect?

Just copy the zip file into the PCM Keyboard folder in Program Files, then in PCM k\'s option choose my theme and then the suitable layout.

[REQ] Hot to disable weather animation (WM6.5 HTC SENSE 2.5)

Hi.
I'm using WM6.5 with HTC SENCE 2.5
I'm looking for a tweak, programs, whatever to disable the weather animation at home tab, but remaining weather icon info.
Any help?
Thanks

I think what you do is set the background picture to something different than 'Weather background' (I'm on a Dutch version, so I'm unsure of the actual English button label)
But don't shoot me if I'm wrong

Ghanz is right:
On the home page in Manila, tap menu/home wallpaper/animated wallpaper but then tap Albums and browse to the non-animated image you want to use and select.
Done

HI all
What i want is to STOP the weather animation, not the background animation.
I usually use a photo as background wallpaper (a standart JPG with 800*480), but the animations are still active (sun shining, raining, etc).
How to stop that???

Hey kam',
well, mine was set to 0 or 1, and i changed it to 2 which disabled the weather-animation for me.
If yours is set to 2 already,maybe try to change it to 0 or 1, then softreset and change it back to 2 and softreset.
If that doesn't work, then i have no idea, sorry.
Hope it helps, greetings

Weather animation
I know its been a while since this thread was active but i came here looking for a answer and went away to come back with the easy solution. install the wonderfull max manilla layout which amongst other things lets you turn off the weather animation. Hope this saves others some time looking for the easy route.

I think it is easier to do a single change in the registry, than installing maxmanilla, then softreseting... why do all this if you just want to disable weather aanimation???

Fair point but a lot of people have never played around with the registry and dont feel comfortable with the idea

Think would be great, my device goes crazy when the weather is sunny...

Exactly ... the problem is sunny weather and clear night sky's! It would be really nice if someone would suggest something.

And by the way ..... if it is possible, then not with a .cab file please. I want to know what causes the animation.

Hi guys,
I saw that you are looking for taskbar icon for your HD mini.
Here is my package taskbar icon with 128dpi (compatible with HD mini). This works fine on my Samsung i907.
Info:
- Base on icon from Dark Ninja. Hope he does not mind.
- Allready fixed volumn icon.
- For 128dpi device.
Instruction:
- Install SdkCerts.cab first. Reset. (This step is only use when you are using stock Rom. If you are using Tom series, i think you dont need this step).
- Install TaskBarIcon_128dpi.cab. Reset.
Please report.
