Guys....Is there any cab for getting this taskbar manager shown below?
thanks in advance
I've been wondering the same thing. I know some cooked roms won't have it depending on the version of 6.5 that is used, but I also want to know if someone was able to make this into a cab.
Also, if it's not cabbed does anyone know of any other notification managers for windows mobile besides the HTC notification enhancement?
Sorry for not answering your question shatou, but maybe we'll get a better response if more people are interested in this.
no cab. this is built into the wm 6.5.1 and 6.5.3 roms. link the wm 6.5 lock screen and titanium today screen it cant be used without the required rom.

You guys are doing lots of wonderful work!
Is there any chance that some kind soul could post the OEM package of the threaded SMS that's available on WM6.1?
I know it might not be an actual package and may be intergated into the rom but here's hoping!
I was using 6.1 and loved the threaded SMS but I have to go back to 6 and would like to try and get it on there.

Andy,
AFAIK, a cab/OEM of this has not been made yet.
Ok. Once the package is available...
..I'll make the cab!
if im thinking of what your talking about, i bileave there is a cab for threaded sms, where they are saved as if they are im messages. If this is what your looking for, let me know because i bileave i may have it somewhere. I have yet to try out WM 6.1 so im not entirely sure if its the same thing your talking about or not.

you're *probably* thinking of the palm threaded sms app, which is different from the 6.1 threaded sms.......key word=probably
is there much of a difference between the 6.1 version and the palm one?
Thanks but I have the 'original'.
Thanks for the offer but I've tried the cab file versions and they're all the palm version from the treo. The M$ version in 6.1 is much slicker and intergrates properly with the messaging system.
I've tried 6.1 and like it but all the versions I've tried cause my tytn to stop responding. It goes into suspend and never comes out! Funny thing is that it appears to be random.
This is why I'm after the threaded sms - so I can install it onto 6! (Hopefully).

Sliding Panels Theme

Thanks

I think were fighting the same battle. Funny how wm 6.1 came from a motorola q8.
thanks i'll try them out and tell u if it was successful
nope not working just a background and nothing else
Im also looking for this. If anyone has an idea for an working one please leat me know.
sliding panels theme-on other than kavana?
is it possible to get the theme installed on a 1.33 version? im not sure if this is his own theme and hasnt been released to the public.
i tried the kavana version and it just seems that the 1.33 works smoother (...please dont bash me, its just personal preference) and uses less battery life, so i flashed back but i really miss the theme and a few of the other options. so my next question, am i just better off cooking my own rom or is it too complicated for "slightly above average" people like me?
can anyone point me in the right direction please?
thanks in advance
The "CHome" homescreen plugin is developed by Microsoft and is part of the WM 6.1 OS. Anyway... there's ways of getting it to work on other ROMs or devices. Here's a cab I have that's supposed to make that happen. Try installing it on your device, it should work.
thanks ill give it a try
fast response much appreciated!
tried a version of chome that i found but it didnt work either...i installed the chome_2 first and got a blank background, installed a version of chome and got the same thing but only showed a partial of the blank background, like the right and top are chopped off with a different shade of green than the background, (sorry best i can describe it) i uninstalled both and reinstalled chome first then chome_2, still the same results. i guess im stuck with the brightpoint 1.33 kavana version for now. thanks for the help
sorry for the post, the kavana version changed since the last time i used it. im cool with it now, no need for this post anymore, mods please bump. thanks
Work it with WM 6.0? Thanks.

Think this has already been answered and it's not available without 6.1.
Please feel free to correct me if wrong?
Just wonder if anyone managed to extract pocket internet explorer from the wm6.5 rom vga to wm6.1? I'm using a diamond gsm with a custom rom.
Thanks in advance to all
105 views and no answer?
Any idea anyone? I'm asking as I cannot find it anywhere? Is it even possible to run it on WM6.1?
dont know how to or if its possible but having been using various 6.5 roms over the past month or so i find PIE for 6.5 slow, unstable and has problems with the diamond keyboards.
Thanks

Yes you are right, just thought it might behave a little better as WM6.1. On the BsB WM6.5C rom it was not that bad. I was able to use it properly but because I need the device to be reliable I had to unistall WM6.5 until its official and ported to the diamond. I can see that it came out today so its not going to take that much longer i think!
Thanks for answering by the way.
As the title goes.. Did u really like the new Windows 6.5 ?
I tried to change my attitude positively so much but still couldn..
I feel 6.1 is still better ..
I DIN'T LIKE IT ... What about you ? Which Rom are you using currently ??
Haven't tried the "official" release, but many,many cooked flavors
and think it kinda hohum. Not that much of an upgrade if any really.
6.1 is fine and does what I need. Not sure if I'll try the "official".

Not much has changed from 6.1 to 6.5.
The two things that really catch the eye are:
- the new start menu
- the new lock screen
Both things are far better than with 6.1 so I prefer 6.5.

What is it that is in WM6.5 that you don't like. Many said that WM6.5 is like WM6.1. What are the changes in WM6.5 that you don't?
Personally, I'm ecstatic about WM6.5. WM6.1 had an 8 email account limit. That was a bummer for me since I have about a dozen that I would like to check on my phone and SMS, MMS, and Outlook counted against the eight. WM6.5 doesn't have the limit (that I have found). I have 12 email account configured and the "add email account" button is still active.
yea, 6.5 is prettier because its not them ugly white backgrounds in the programs and settings options, but really no actual difference......... but, id say 6.5 for being prettier.......

More importantly, what is in 6.1 that they like so much? As far as I see it, anyone that would take 6.1 over 6.5 is stupid AND crazy (provided 6.5 is free).
Hmm, let's see... do I want the clunkly, old looking, non-fingerfriendly 6.1 or do I want the newer, less clunky, fingerfriendly 6.5? No brainer.
Do I lose anything 6.1 had? No. Do I gain anything good? Yes. Does anything change for the worse? No. Again, no brainer...
Granted 6.5 isn't revolutionary, but it is evolutionary.
Anyhow, the 6.5 haters/6.1 lovers are probably lame ass Windows XP lovers/Windows 7 haters or people that don't actually understand technology. Probably old people actually. Also, what's with talking about 6.5 in the past tense?
WM6.5 is so much more finger friendly. i rarely find myself taking out the stylus anymore, which is great.
I have been reluctant to use 6.5 simply because of the new Start Menu. I'm not a big fan of the offset layout. I don't know why, but the layout makes me really confused. Seriously, don't ask me why...
But I like everything else about 6.5 (ie, the lock screen and the finger friendly features).
I wish there was a 6.5 ROM that uses Manila 2.1 with the HTC Start Menu...
My biggest pro is the capility to lock the screen without having to install 3rd party apps that chow battery life.
Hello there. I know that WM 6.1 is pretty much dead, but i'm still using it cause 6.5 isn't as fast as 6.1 on Blackstone. I've searched a couple of forums for a decent taskbar, couldn't find something to suit my taste, but instead i found an interesting taskbar for WM 6.5 which fits and works almost perfect, except for the "x" and "ok" buttons which show as a white square, due to the difference between the WM 6.1 and the WM 6.5 OS. If anyone who's a savvy in taskbars could help me and point me in the right direction to edit those 2 files and settings in the cab file in order to replace them with the default ones or any other files, i'd appreciate it. Below i attached 2 screenshots of the taskbar to see what i'm talking about. Thanks
P.S. Modified it. No further assistance needed.
