alright, thank you very much.
i have a feeling that if we learn how to use this, many amazing skins can be made for our excaliburs.
I have downloaded it...initially tried to use it to make a preliminary of my Horizon Skin (which i hope to release soon). I found that it isn't (for me atleast) worth the effort.
Maybe I am just a super-noob with it, but I found it confusing and hard to actually design panels. It didn't work by the basis of centering the main panel or putting the active panel at the top...it was more like the screen was all active panels and I would have to scroll to each one. I found it annoying, but that is my take.
If someone can figure out how to efficiently use this program, then i saw more power to them, and maybe i will try this program again.
A few notes:
-Always exit correctly, sometimes it gives an error the next time starting
-Be sure to put your Bronzeres.dll in the WINDOWS folder there (it'll add some images)
-You can replace the default background
-I think putting the cmhomeres.dll and cmhomeres.dll.0409.mui (or whatever the second is) adds some text too.
-Make a backup of your registry and put it in the windows folder, then load it (It'll enable the use of the DLL's)
Good luck! I hope to see some good progress

i had the same issue with all the active panels, but what i did was i deactivated all the panels and just started with changing around the clock panel, so that helped.
i guess im more noob than you lol, but where is the cmhomeres.dll things? and how do you use them with the program because all i did was import a .cpr file.

It actually does we just didn't name it that, but WM6.5 has suddenly become CHome and will be the reason how much users will know it as that.
Original Config - CHome Configurator for WM6.1: Version 1.1.0.5 FINAL (UPDATED - 2008/07/11)
CHome Refresh another tool we used to make the homescreen refresh.
But anyway the only way to get it is to flash 6.1 or 6.5 not available as .cab.......

On your phone go to the start menu then to Accessories, and then click RESCO REGISTRY (that is where it is on my phone). Get to the point where you see only HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and HKEY_CURRENT_USER or something like that...it is the highest you can go. Select all of those and select "export registry" (DONT FORGET TO SELECT ALL OF THEM). I kno the program doesn't use all of it, but it is safer that way (in my opinion)
once you make a theme what do you do after that?
how do you get it to your phone?

Hmm...haha, I never got that far (didn't have the patience)
I would suppose there is a way on the FILE menu to save the CPR. Do so, then copy the CPR file to the Windows Folder on your folder.
Two notes:
1-The CPR file MUST be named (in this case for simplicity) titanium_320x240.cpr
2-BACKUP YOUR OLD ONE THAT IS ALREADY THERE!!!YOU DONT WANT TO LOSE THAT ONE!
Best of luck!

This is the last of piece of crap to lay here before I move on. I'll be putting the blackjack on the auction block.
This mortscript gets data from the registry and then writes to the owner/notes plugin for the homescreen. I also included a sliding panels xml with the notes plugin in it. You can copy the notes plugin part into any home.xml your using. If you put it in a sliding panel xml, then it has to replace the iconbar, no other option for placement.
I also included a place for custom text to be entered(last pic). To edit, open the customNotes.mscr in Notepad and where you see "Enter Custom Text Here", replace what you want inside the quotes. Save it and restart the customNotes.mscr(reboot).
This Needs Mortscript installed to work, I recommend version 4.11b7.
To Install:
1) Unzip and copy the home.xml file into \application data\home folder. The .mscr and .exe file can be placed anywhere in main memory. After placing, click on the mscr file to start up the loop.
2) Create a shortcut to the exe into \windows\startup\
3) Go to Settings\Display\Homescreen and choose the customNotes xml.
To Uninstall:
1) Delete shortcut in \windows\startup\
2) Choose a new layout xml in settings
3) Delete all three files
Note: I added a alternate battery percentage mscr below. If you don't get battery percentage to show, then download it, unzip, and copy over the original customNotes.mscr.

Hey, Showaco. I dread when these days come even though you more or less had an Excalibur in our minds. Please stay in contact. Also, PM the newest headset you are moving on too. Thank you for all your dedication & time spent fiddling with your mobile. It has let hundreds of people like myself make the most of there phones. I love modding and personalizing my mobile due to the fact of people like yourself. Being part of an underground modding community is something special. Wherever the road takes you no matter how frustrated you get with noobs, people are grateful. Others are due credit as well. I could name names....but you already should know who you are.
Thanks
Pfunk
It's funny... Showaco is leaving.. and I'm coming back to the Excalibur.
p.s. Although I might be following him on the touch diamond path soon... hehe
Missed by the community you will be.
I can't speak for all on the forum but i'm sure we all share the same opinion that you shall me missed, you have brought many mods and tweaks to the device we all love the Dash, even though you was an imposter My device would not be as loved as it is now without all the help and support you have provided over the last couple of months. Hope that this is just a break from the Dash forum and that you will still have your input in the tech we have all got so used to.
Good luck with the future i imagine you will be off to the kaiser forum

LANDSCAPE WORKING
original method taken from Showaco
Ive spent quite a bit of time working on this now so i feel i can receive some credit for all of this work
Start Menu All Programs 4 iCONS (not working on programs page)
-[CAB]
v3.2
V3.3 - ONLY FOR LATEST MANILA 2.1.x
--------
-[OEM] -(copy file into manila directory in your kitchen)
V3.2
Does this only change the "All Programs" page or does it bring back the old style
start menu and bring back the programs tab?
Would it be possible to just create a cab that changes the "All Programs" section
to the 4 icons view instead of that massive long list that exists as of this moment.
i think the start menu need to be spaced out a bit more if anyones intrested ill keep updating
it should do both, thats what ive been trying to achieve if u want just the all programs to be boxes i should be able to do that for you
The "Start Menu" just looks too close and squashed and is it me or is it padded
to much from the left.
The "All Programs" screen looks fine though.
So would it be possible to only have "All Programs" and not the "Start Menu" mate?
Edit:
Just read your post, could you do that for me please. I like the new Start Menu Rhodium has and I prefer 3 applications per
row but definetely want to change the "All Programs" bit.
Navigating through a list is just too long. I don't understand what HTC were thinking LOL
yea it is , same thing i thought but it is a working example ill do you the all programs only now should be easy enough

the icons are from PPC rom,i dump the rom,originaly they are png format,then i convert them to .ico,because some pixes are translucent,so when they are converted to .ico format,you will find the edge is not so good.
but if you use iphone style square icons on wm,you will find it`s very good
that`s the reason
why are they good in computer?because the some of the icons`s edge are transparent or translucent，xp/vista support 32 translucent,but wm(base on WINCE) dont support
sorry for my poor english

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a ROM out there that offers a tweak that allows the Zoom bar to be used to scroll thru lists like the old TP1. So it will save time with File explore and other apps. Thanks, and i am sorry if i posted this in the wrong place.
Also if there is anyother tweaks for the Zoom bar

Which rom are you using... if the chef is using a smarttouch.dll from another phone ext like leo it will not work... if you open opera or IE it should allow you to zoom in using the phone zoom bar.. the registry containes allot of entries so it should support allot of different applications....
edit: may need a reboot to take effect.

will it work on scrolling through contacts on beejive im ?
Ive just started using this tweak and its pretty nice, but im wondering if its possible to reverse the setting. I would rather sliding to the right mean scrolling upward (up dpad) than what it is now. Also take into account that when i expose the keyboard and attempt to to slide to scroll up, i actually have to slide down to scroll up!

Hi,
I'm at a loss, I've tried to be clever and incorporate all the reg tweaks I use on my Leo into 1 cab using WinCE Cab Manager so that I don't have to installed a bunch of them every time I hard reset. However, once I've installed the cab i made the camera stops working and stuff starts going crazy e.g. manila just restarting for no reason, missing exe's etc.
I've checked and doubled checked the reg entries and everything is fine.
Anyone got any advice?
Thanks!

Attached is a reg file containing the tweaks I've put in. Oddly enough, just done another hard reset and it was going fine, tweaked registry entries manually and now camera comes up with unable to initialize error again. Grrrr!
Any help is much appreciated!
I'm afraid to run it on my phone
But in your position I would remove all registry keys related to HTC\Camera and then manually add them step by step and check camera functionality after each changed registry key to see which one causes the issues.
It's not what you want to hear maybe, but you could just put all your reg tweaks in an .xml (get rgu2xml). Then just run it during customization. XML's are usually faster than cabs, too.
