Skin Mobile 5 - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading

Himalaya and WM5 users,
Have you used the wm5 application skin mobile 5?
It's just a skin to make your taskbar looks like wm6 taskbar in any color you want. i think you can edit the .ini file for the colors. just log on to ppcgeeks.com and search for it.
But the problem is, it is not english in language and you have to minimize the application so that the changes remains.
I think it's cool.

Customize Wm6 colors?

Im comin from wm5 and Ive been comfortably using UI Tweaker to edit my upper lower taskbars. Im wondering does this work with wm6? Or is there a UI Tweaker for wm6 or a similar app that will let me customize the wm6 upper lower taskbars?
There is no new UI Tweaker specifically for wm6. Most of it's features work with wm6 with a few bugs, but I don't remember if the taskbars do.
I used to have a cab for it that was a program and it lets me set custom top and bottom bars.. just wish i could remember the name of it.
Here it is lol i found it..
thx man!
thanks
thank you
u really helped me
FYI - Doesnt work for WM6 Q9C Verizon Wireless.

Make the Vox working for 96dpi ???

Hi,
i have testing with the dpi settings for the display and i think 96dpi is realy good to working. But there some bug's and no i ask me if any rom cooker can make a nice rom with 96dpi support. I have seen that win6.1 working on a typhoon with 96dpi by 176x220px ... the vox have 131dpi by 240x320px ... so can anyone help me ?
some images
Hm looks pretty good. How do you change to different DPi"
I've found you just need to set the registry values [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\ Display\GPE\LogicalPixelsY] and LogicalPixelsX to 96 in decimal
But for now it's quite buggy..some icons on titlebar are missing
Information source here
It changes icons messages home screen only letters in menus are at the same size
It needs some DLL editing from what i'm reading
Here are some shots
as you can see here the icons of the signal and battery are missing
Here is how the homescreen appears
Hm I noticed the icon problems. When you use the icon bar replacement it works on the homescreen otherwise it doesn't. You also need adjustments for the grid view in the start menu, it doesn't show enough icons, but that should be changeable via reg key too. You need the dll for the icon bar, then you can adjust that too!
EDIT: Yes, you also need bigger backgrounds!
Yes in the linked article they say how to solve the icons issue and why the problem exists but it's for Wm2003 so I haven't tried yet...
OT: thank you frau with your (and others obviously) work with vonix and for the wiki
OK. I think tshres.dll is for the iconbar.
exactly is tshres
"tshres.96.dll: Bluetooth/Wi-Fi/system icons. It even contains PE (Phone Edition) icons.[/url] Locked by the shell32.exe, gwes.exe and device.exe"
The problem is, I just looked in the dll and there are not all the icons, that are usually in the icon bar, like battery icons are missing!
For me it's very painful to look for those icons using the dlls located on the phone..maybe using the kitchen or the OEM SYS folders provided by the DOC...but right know I do not have broadband connection...
Tell me which dlls you need. I'll upload them for you!
Thank you for your cooperation..I'll take a look at the guide this evening..now i do not have spare time...so i'll let you know...
Thanks in advance
nice to see that somebody intressting to this
my idea is to copy the 96dpi stuff form a typhoon rom to the vox rom, and cook this. After this it's going to the fine tune.
For the menu's the regkey's are
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\PopFnt
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\BarFnt
and set the value "ht" to 14-16 ... what you like ... 14 is realy small but good enouth to read ... 15 is i thing the ideal for this
For the Scrollbar (value in px ... 3-4 are good)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\cxVscr
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\cyHscr
Sounds good. Can you upload those files?
I have never cooked a rom befor, i have ask "ALEUT" the maker for wm6.1 for the typhoon if he can send me the files from his rom.
if he would send me ... i put them to a server
ore someone told me how i cook a rom ^^
i founded all the icons thanks to frauhottelman...now i have to know how to modify them to be compatible with the 96 DPI MODE.
we will be waiting for you to release something to make vox 96dpi
other than icons you have to make call screens also compatible wioth 96dpi

i think you may wait for a long time...i m not a programmer or whatever else...i've just tryed to do some dll substitution...and till now...this has resulted in phone hardresetting
I've used some 96 dpi dll found here on XDA but with no luck...
if any of you finds a way to just edit the dll we have this could be great.

There is a rinku iconbar cab that will change your iconbar without needing sliding panels. I'm fairly certain that the rinku iconbar existed before 6.1. But for wm standard home screens, you have to edit your xml file to add it to the homescreen you want to use it on. Most cabs you find are going to add it the 6.1 sliding panels homescreen. You could install one of these, then look at there xml file to get the info to replace the current iconbar in the homescreen xml your using. All the xml files are installed to/located in the
\application data folder on your phone. Search for rinku and for tutorial on editing the home.xml file for wm standard.

I think when you choose the icons it resizes itself to needed size.
since i moved to windows mobile i use only english for contacts,
now i use free hebrew support so i dont have this option.
you say you had this option before so maybe you had full hebrew support like EYERON or something...
hi guys!!!!

How do you make 6.5.x themes?

I have been searching for the past 15 minutes but can't find the answer! What do you use to make 6.5.x themes?

Chome visual editor only is for edit , search and use this , i used this for my works
I want to edit things like scrollbars, highlights, softkey backgrounds. This doesn't seem to do it.
Find a WM6.5.X theme file. Rename to *.cab. Extract reg, and use that as your base. Prefer classicblue myself. Now get a pic you want, convert to your resolutions, create a cab with it, and insert reg!
EDIT: If you search using the link in my sign, you will find the answers. It has been discussed in detail before.
I just figured it out that tsk files are actually cabs as you posted this! Wow, in all my years with Windows Mobile I never knew that!
How to "extract reg"??

It doesn't work properly for WM6.5.x.
Use WinCE CAB Manager to open the CAB of any theme you like and replace the graphic files with your own. You can also edit the TSK, if you want. Just learn by doing, I figured it this way as well .
This is my basic lesson of titanium, this one in Spanish
