Glossy bars... - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Does anyone have a CAB to make WM5 have the glossy bars (top and bottom) like WM6?
Thanx.

not that i know off only way is to install wisbar or someother whole gui change program

So, the only "OS" way around it would be to move to a WM6 flavor?
Thanx.

Here it is, but it was super easy to find in a search.

Well, yes, I located that with the "super easy search" as well. However, it is not working on WM5.
Thanx.

Oh Okay. Did you put the uzipped .exe file in your Windows/startup folder, then soft reset?
What happens when you do that?

Yes.
I copied the "Glossy Black Bars.exe" to my "\Windows\Startup" folder.
Unfortunately, as you'll see by the screen shot below, I only have dark grey bars and without the "3-D" look of WM6.
Thanx.

The glossy look is a feature built in on WM6, it has nothing to do with .tsk theme files.
You can get here a program that emulates it, but it only works right if you have cleartype disabled...

Cool...I'll try it and let ya know.
Thanx.

Well, we're definitely 50% closer with this one. It is only working on the top bar though.
Thanx.

Here is a file if just want to remove your contacts bar. Just put the .exe file in your Windows/startup folder.

i used this application... works well, screwed up the text as seen in the screenshot though... any workaround for this?

That's the cleartype that active/not active, change it.

thanks

change windows buttons

Hi, sorry to post but i don't really know how to search for what I'm after
I just want to change the windows keys at the top of the bottom of the screen to solid black instead of the shiny grey gradient.
Can I directly change a graphics file? and if so where is it?
Thanks for your help
ant
Is this not possible, I had a go with the Theme maker program, but then when I output to WM6 it retains the shiny black bars that I would really like to have in solid black

I think maybe you should search for a skinning program? or a skin that does what your thinking of.
Can you post a screenshot or picture to show exactly what you mean?
Or do you mean, bars like these?

}
yeah, how did you do that, there is no vertical gradient, i like that but i would prefer it all black
what skinning program will do that? does the program have to run in the background all the time or is it a one time operation to set the skin?

Hi:
After I installed a solid black theme, which I use, now the top and bottom bars appear solid in all themes with black bars. You could give it a shot. Not sure if it will work, but it will be easy to test. Just install the theme I attach here, then try another theme with black bars, and see if it works . For some reason it worked on mine.
Another way is to use a theme editor (I use Themegence), and use black bars for WM5, that too makes them solid black.
Anyway, I hope this works for you
Cheers for your help guys
I used UI Tweaker in the end, it did exactly what I wanted, then I used some other things I found on here to hide the top and bottom bars,now it looks perfect!!

Kaiser/Tilt Font problem

Hey guys,
I deleted a font or something went wrong with a font of mine when I was trying to edit SPB Mobile Shell a long time ago. I have had to put up with these problems for a while, and am wondering if anyone knows of a fix for these things:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Only in landscape mode do these problems exist.
On your device check windows\fonts directory and windows directory for TTF files.
First, if there is something in \fonts just delete and soft reset.
Look what happens.
You may Verdana or Arial in the fonts directory and soft reset again.
You can use the TTF from your desktop W2K or XP PC under "Windows" or "WINNT\fonts" (actually a cool idea from MS to use the same fonts).
You may also look in the SPB dir's if there are any TTFs lingering around.
Grüsse nach Schwalbach (my guess is that you're from there or you like Schwälbchen Yogurt that much - hahaha).
My last name is Schwalbach, obviously German heritage, but unfortunately not anywhere near me. All American here.
So I checked my Fonts folder, nothing there.
I went in to my windows(Vista), copied the files to the device. Soft reset, checked the folder to make sure they were there, and then checked. Same thing as before. No menu items showing up, no word suggestions showing up(except the jumbled together words I had before), etc.
i dont think this will work, but do you have cleartype enabled?
Cleartyype would have been my next question. Answering here from the Tilt so not that easy to check. Look everywhere for TTF files and copy/move them to a different location. Did you play with D3D drivers or Omnia stuff. Messed up my Tilt once though all works with WM 6.1.
Did you also check with adv. config that nothing is messy there?
IT WASS CLEARTYPE!!!!
Thanks guys, you are saviors!
I have had this problem on my Kaizer, and now it's ok when i uncheck cleartype.
So i suppose cleartype is the problem !
Sory for my bad english !

Change FTouch Flo wallpaper on Orange Touch Diamond

Hi All,
I read on the forums that to change the wallpaper in touch flo (not windows) you have to go to Settings->FTouchFlo->Wallpaper.
In my FTouchFlo settings i only have 2 tabs, TouchFLO and about.
TouchFlo has 3 checkboxes. Am i missing the touchflo cofig editor or something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
You should definately be able to change the wallpaper in the settings config, what version of TouchFlo do you have? It would seem you have an older version which is why it isn't included :S
just use the slider at the bottom of the screen.
goto settings tab and click wallpaper on there.
i have v3.0. what version should i have and where could i get it from?
ah - do i need to update my ROM to 1.93?
whether you have 1.37 or 1.93 rom, there's no difference.
to change the wallpaper (background picture) in the touchflo3d you go in the tf3d to the settings tab and there is a wallpaper setting. however, it only sets the wallpaper on the first "home" tab of the tf3d. so far, there's no easy way to change the wallpaper on the rest of the tabs other than to load a new tf3d theme or modify yours with manila editor.
ok.
but i go to settings->system tab->TouchFlo->and i only have 2 tabs. Nothing at all relating to wallpaper on either. Am i looking at the wrong settings?

New HTC Home Icons, Clock and TSK

Hi All,
Been kinda scarce around here lately, since I was checking in today to see what's happening i thought I would share some stuff I put together. The tsk is based off a wallpaper I found at deviant art I think it was from Ken Saunders from mouserunner, The images in the icons i just picked up off the web and tweaked them to suit my needs.
I know everybody is going to manilla 2d but personally I'm going to wait till all the bugs are worked out by the genius's around here before i switch.
Enjoy

What's the name of the program that's at the very bottom of your phone. I like it. It looks like a continuation of the HTC home plugin.
Do you know if you can customize those shortcuts or anything of the sort?
its battery status (now home screen plus plus ), and yes you can pretty much do anything with it if you can set up an xml file.
can these be loaded with HHC (HTC Home Customizer)?
sure, just drop the file in the correct folders in program files, htc home customizer, and then choose whatever you would like.
OK, thanks.
btw i get an app execution error about a missing file from HHV V1.0Final so I will have to revert to 0.8 i guess
hmmm, I have v1.0 and it seems to work just fine on my device, I actually copied the files right off my phone , zipped em up and posted , let me know if there is anymore trouble.
great stuff, thanks
could you remind me of the name of the lower icon bar today plugin ?
thanks,
battery status/ homee screen plus plus, your welcome im glad you like it

use htc home customizer, I tried to upload it but somethings not working, you'll find it if you do a search.Install it then find the files folder in the program and drop the icons in the icon folder, you can then open up hhc and choose the icons. Hope that helps

[Tweak/SKN/Layouts][UPDATE May 29][Titanium] Titanium QVGA Small

Inspired by TheDaniel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=518634), I made this cpr for QVGA devices, which uses Segoe UI as a font and uses much smaller font, which in my opinion looks nicer..
The Expanded View of the plugins is still the same, don't know if i'm gonna edit these ones too, maybe tomorrow...
Plugins:
Analog Clock
Notifications
System Panel
Volume Control
Fave People
Quick Launcher
Settings
Tasks
Comm Manager
COffice
+ Standard plugins
So here you go...
UPDATE 29 MAY
Added COffice to the plugin list.
File is found in the attached ZIP.
Install:
1. Backup the file: \windows\Titanium_240x320.cpr to your perferred location. You MUST do this to be able to uninstall.
2. Install and enable the plugins you wish
3. Copy and paste my file to your windowsfolder and confirm overwrite.
4. Restart your titanium or reset your device.
This only supports default theme...
Looks Great! I will test it out now.
Here's my wallpaper btw...

Nice set-up by you and daniel. The only thing that's missing is larger font and weather adjustment. Clouds off the screen and not aligned will there be a fix for this? Thanks Good work.

Put your original CPR back in your windows folder. If you don't have it, take the one in the attachement...

Overwrite with your backup. The one you make in step one of the install instructions.
