This IP lawyer has something interesting to say.
And you can get the theme from his page
After launching the theme (by the way, it's VERY EASY, just put it in a folder in your wizard), everything works except the banner clock just show "0". Wondering if you get the same on your wm6.
Also, it would be nice if the calender icon can display the actual date and the clock icon can display the actual time.
Cool but also here the time is 0 0
Very cool app. Looks pretty good and that without needing to install the application. I did try a wizbar adv iphone skin once, which had a lot more features.
But anyway a nice prog to play around with.
could you remap those icon with the config.ini file?
i tried, but most mappings still point to the setting i have on the "Stock" icon.
wondering if anyone here know the PPL and interested to further develop the application. you can download the program for free from the official homepage here: http://arianesoft.ca/index.php
I'm going to look into what I can change with it. The whole deal is fairly cool, but I hate the lag when switching to the "lock" screen. We'll see what we can come up with.

I don't know if you've noticed yet but you can indeed remap the icons with the config.ini file. Simply rename the extension so that it is config.txt, and inside it the various buttons and their paths are shown. Edit those paths the the desired program's location on your phone, then rename the config.txt file back into config.ini
Something I'd like to ask: Can we change the time at the top of this app? I believe that it's just the wrong time zone, since it is 8:44 here and the app shows 3:44
Cool app.
Time shows nothing here though (just 0 0)

Are there any programs out there that will (say daily) randomly change your today wallpaper (from a directory of images)?
Thanks.
There's an app called "Theme Switch" which is part of Microsoft's Theme Generator. You can set it as a Today Item, tap on the icon and it will switch your theme for you.
I've seen another one out there (sorry -- don't remember the name of it) that you can download and set it to switch your theme at certain intervals, such as every day at xxam/pm / every xx hours, every xx/minutes, etc., etc. But, like I said, I can't remember where I saw it or the name of it-- guess I need to look for it again, huh??
UPDATE -- I just found it at http://www.pocketpcthemes.com/thememaster.shtm, but it only lists PPC2000 and PPC2002 compatability.
Do these programs only work on themes? I'm looking for something to work with ordinary pictures (.jpg)
Not sure about Theme Switch, but ThemeMaster only works on dedicated .tsk files, so I guess that's not exactly what you're looking for.
I am looking to replace the upper icons in WM 6.0 with custom ones, the question is are they in the rom (if so cannot edit, right?) or are they in wm somewhere?
I've been slowly going through the system and have not found them yet, any suggestions on where to start?
I have some fantabulous advice on where to start my American amigo.
FIrst, the files SHOULD be editable, they are simply image files under the \Windows directory. I'm pretty sure they all have different names and are not grouped together, but they should be easy to spot (I imagine they will end in a picture format extension IE .bmp .gif etc.
BUT, it is important to note that, like most Windows Operating Systems, the OS doesn't trust you. Therefore, the files are hidden!
If you just have the normal Explorer, I don't know if it has an "unhide system files" choice.
I personally would go download and install Total Commander, Resco Explorer etc, one of which does have that choice.
After that, search that folder and you will find them.
PS I am not rambling, I have actually seen them in there
Cheers!
Thank you for the good start.
I had a feeling they had to be in the \windows\ or \windows\system folder.
Now the auduous task of finding, editing and replacing them, I always hated this part, since my patients is minimal at best.
Thanks again for the quick tip, I'll try to post a screenshot when I get them done.

NOTE: 90% of these are the logos for the top bar. One or two relate to the input logo at the bottom bar (IE Keyboard and Pen, I believe it is the Input_Kboard and Pen files). One or two others relate to the image you see when you click the sound icon in the top bar and it gives you two sound parameters to adjust, each with a logo at the top. Use your judgement and eyes to decide which is which. Most you will have seen already.
I don't know if this list is complete, I may have missed some. If you find any others in your searches, let us know and I will add them to this list. I needed to make this list anyway as I am trying to cook a ROM for Himalaya and need to know what I can remove. (For example, Himalaya's don't have EDGE or 3G, so straight away there are eight or so logos that can be removed).
Also note that other programs have access to the top bar and may add their own icons, as Messenger (which does not come installed in our roms) did. Perhaps it is only Microsoft programs that can add their own icons, who knows.
PS Good luck, look forward to the screen shots.
PPS Some of the logos I have never seen appear, but I have been in situations where they should appear (IE No SIM card, but the NoSim image never appeared). I find it interesting that while half follow a naming convention, others don't (IE 1xRTT_connect_PPC.bmp and gprs_connect.bmp without the _PPC). I wonder if this has anything to do with it not working.
(Rant over)
Were you ever able to change the battery icons? I was trying the same bmps but they do not change even with a soft reset for me, even tho the file is changed in the directory to my customed one it still remains as the default. Any tips tricks or ideas? My thought is a dll but I'm relatively new to this and am very unsure. Thanks for the tips and hope to hear you have done it or at least figured out a possible way.
I can help you to find the icons
There are include as ressource in DLL and we can replace it
The only icon I can find is the Signal Strength Icon
Any idea ? Do you replace it ?

I've searched everywhere and can't find anything like this: I want a app that is completely blank and totally configurable through XML file so that I can place MY background pic and MY icons where I want on the screen to launch whatever app I want... It will look and act much like rlToday but NOT be a today plugin, rather a program so I can assign it to a button or whatever I want to launch it.
Is this a good idea/request?? Can it be done easy??
Something like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529212
what about HTC ActionScreen by Fabliv, it's a screen with 9 buttons, with the params in the registry.
Search for the cab of Fabliv and see what's inside.
Thanks but both of these ^^ are developed apps that have set up peram and what I want is a blank page, no back ground, no icons, no script, nothing.... Then assign everything through xml files.

I have been checking this page occasionally but it is indefinately under construction so I don't know how I could use this utility..
Is there another utility I could use to try to create this app? I have yet to find anything close to a program I'm looking for...
This is a little app I developed mainly because I got tired of changing all my shortcut icons by hand every time I wanted to try something new.
It works by a folder of icons on your sdcard and matching them to installed applications by name. For example, Browser.png gets mapped to the Browser application.
This is more of a test version i'm looking fro people to find bugs and try other devices.
If you are having problems:
Please send me your log by using the button from the main menu.
Known Issues:
- Very long list of notifications.
Changes:
- 0.2:
You can now edit the title of each app.
I have included a test set of icons, Token Icons, original can be found here: http://brsev.deviantart.com/art/Token-128429570
Now this is cool. Gonna try it out. Only thing is certain apps I like to change the name of when I create shortcuts with BetterCut. Like changing XScope to Browser. I suppose I could do those one by one with BetterCut though.
Adding name changing would be pretty easy.
That would be awesome!
Will try this one for sure
Works really great. It's convenient. Only work involved is naming the icons which can easily be done from your computer before you put them on the sd card.
Updated, you can now set title titles of each shortcut.
going to try it, thanksssssssssss
When I tried it, the buttons of the app did not work properly.
I ran into a slight problem. While selecting the icon folder.
Drilled down to folder.
Hit select...nothing
Hit select...nothing
Hit select...nothing
Hmm
Hit back button...nothing
Hmm
Screen turns black, osmonitor looks maxed out.
After around 5 minutes, maybe more, go into osmonitor and kill auto shortcut.
droid x
Froyo
350+ apps
I have the Droid Incredible, when I get to step 2 "select shortcuts to create" and I tap on create button nothing happens. I could go back to step 2 but I can't do anything on step 2
I'll take a look and throw in some log output data to see if i can find the problem.
could we have some images to test? I want to try this but I have no worthy images to replace my current icons
I added a test set of icons on the original post.
Those of you that are having problems, can you give me your device names and android versions.
didnt work with me
i choose the folder
n' then it shows step2 but nothing listed under it
although i named the icons really easy names ( browser, facebook, phone ) !!!
nexus one cyanogenmodRC3 rom
Did you make sure to capitalize the names? Currently it is case sensitive, perhaps it would be best to ignore the case.
Works on my non-rooted ( ) Evo....anyway we could get more icon packs?
Awesome stuff man =)
I will try on both my HEro and my Magic.

i'm wondering if there is a way to do away with the slider bar in the default wm6.5 home screen. in the pic below (i'm a new user so just copy/paste without spaces, lol.) i just slid the bar all the way to the top to take a screenshot, and i wanna know if i can just remove it for a simple clean homescreen.

Why not switch to "classic today" screen, then check out the themes forum for themes you can apply or search for specific plugins? Is it just that you want the titanium function but not the outline around the selected panels? I'm not sure how to do that, but it should be possible by editing the xml file.
well, when i switch to the classic today screen, or just uncheck Windows Default, under Items, i lose the transparency of the toolbar and taskbar. i guess that if i cold just get rid of the big dark bar in the middle of my screen i would be satisfied. i would just like to be able to see my wallpapers. and yes, i want the titanium function but not the outline around the selected panels.
Ok, gotcha. I don't know off-hand how to do that, though It probably would be as simple as editing the file, or finding the .png that is of that image (in the windows directory) and replacing it with a panel that is completely transparent.
Maybe someone with some experience will come along that already knows how to do that.
To get you started, you may want to look at this theme, which has already made the panels transparent. if you like it, you can just use it. Otherwise, you could potentially compare the xml files, of find the transparent image that he is using in there and copy it over to your device. It's been a long time since i checked/looked, but the xml that controls the sliding panels today screen is usually something like home.xml or something.
[note: if your phone is not touchscreen, use/look at this thread instead]
If you start playing around, back everything up first! You may also want to browse the "post your screenshots thread" and see if you don't come across some other UI that you like better (or another theme w/o the panels). good luck!

Yes, you can but you need to edit the bronzeres.dll check this thread to learn how to do it, backup first your original file.
Check these screens from my phone

The bronzeres.dll is on the windows directory, but modifying the dll is more complicated than editing xml or cpr files, in my previous post there is a link where you can learn how to unsigne, edit, resign the dll file.
