Hi guys,
I flashed to the new WM6 ROM, looks gr8, but when I try to change the theme (.tsk) to other themes that I used to have on WM5, the background image does not update...
so is WM6 incompatible with WM5 themes??? I did not install any version of XButton in my ROM...
Whenever I update my theme, I get the HTC default background image but theme colors update correctly...
what is this? any solution?
I have exactly the same problem and anybody knows how can i fix it but i hope that the people of xda can help us
Greetings, Diego!!!
First do this test pls
Hi,
can you install this skin pack Here
if the background dos not change maby you have to change to a difrent rom (i recomend XDA2a)
Greets Antonius
I will try this, but switching to a different rom is not that easy, I spent much time personalizing things on my PPC.. I will be sad if that would be the only solution
EDIT: it did not work and I am really bored solving problems with WM6,, any solution here?
Shut off htc xbutton (settings, system task)
Change theme
Then turn it on.
Did you try installing your .tsk files to the root of your SD card instead of to the windows folder?

What do you mean? I have nearly 250 .tsk files on mine (don't ask, when I get bored I make about 5 new ones, and I get bored a lot) and every one of them work.

Okay, I'm having problems tracking down which process is X-Button to kill it - what's the process name?
Ok i turned of X-Button and restarted my wiz, and then i changed the theme, nothing happened. I don't understand when i load the cab it doesn't extract properly or what.... the start menu that pops down when you click on start seems to get the theme loaded right but the background picture it loads to Default black. i dont understand what is blocking it....
all i can say is LOL
LOL

This is a known problem when using X-button. Either find the latest version of X-button (1.51 or something similar). Or go to start>settings>system>X-button and uncheck the boxes that says "enable X-button to end programs..."
If you do not have X-button installed, Then try changing your theme, waiting a few minutes and then soft-reset.
Nothin was right about themegence being the best freeware theme maker. I've used it to make every one of mine. If you go to MoDaCo to the Pocket PC Today Screens QVGA in the downloads section I have 30 or 40 of them in there that I've made. I'm going to have to check out where you guys are downloading yours from and see if I can figure out why they aren't working. Usually, at least the ones I've seen, you don't install them from a cab file. They're usually just zipped or a straight tsk file that you put straight in to either the windows folder or in the root folder of you sd card.
Well, I figured that out pretty quick. If you guys are all downloading them from pocketpcthemes.com, they are not working because the wallpaper part of it is not in the right format to fit a wizard. The images are too big so it's not using them, instead it's using the default wallpaper instead. Try downloading from the MoDaCo downloads section that I mentioned in the post just above this one, they should all work. I know that the one's that I made and mandt made will work for sure. I'll try uploading a bunch more there within the next day or 2 also. If there's any at that pocketpcthemes site that you really have to have, I could probably fix a few of them so they will work if you let me know which ones they are.
@xeno
what program do you use... I used them gence to gen my theme and it dint work
edit: I downloaded the themes from modaco, n they all work great. even w/ x-button. omg u r best xeno. but tell us wut u use to make theme so we can make too.
now what is the difference between PocketPCThemes tsk files and ModaCo tsk files?
These themes are breathtaking. Very good. Found em on the net. Thought I'd Share.
You need Macromedia Flash Player 6.0 -- v7.0 will Not Work!
Run the .exe file from your computer while Activesynced to your phone. Then copy and paste the remaining .tsk files to your windows folder thru Activesync. Open Today screen settings and check them all out. Really Professionally done.
Total of 9 Themes -- They'll all show up in your Today Screen Settings.
They work great on the T-Mobile Wing but should work fine on most other Pocket PC Phones.
Enjoy !!!!
It didn't seem to work on the Cingular 8525 with WM5. I haven't gotten up enough courage to start upgrading.
Works great on my wizard.
Thanks
how can you make it visible on the hole screen instead of only the lower part of screen??
Cheers, Steven
works on my blueangel. one question, how do we change the animation? mine always shows up a plane. and there were a lot of .tsk's that i copied to my phone yet i cant use those.

Thats the problem with Flash Player 7. You need to install Flash Player 6.

Just go to settings/today screen. They should all be there. Click on the one you want and it will change for you. there are some really nice ones. Just make sure you put all the .tsk files in the windows folder on the phone. Reboot.

Oh I think I know what you mean. If you move the program up in Today settings it will animate the top. On bottom it will animate bottom. The other half it reserves for Date, Clock or other plug ins you have on the Today screen.
hi guys.
anyone knows a good site to download some other good backgrounds this program compatible?
tnx

I would if I had it. All I've got is the .exe file. Got it off Macromedia's web site. If some can extract the cab and post it, it would be helpful.
I own a At&t Tilt and it works great thank you......is there any database for more tsk. files or to create them
Works great on my HTC P4350. Nice themes. Thanks for sharing. Here's the cab for FP6.

I have seen almost similar look of this..I'll post the link..its for rltoday screen
Here it is http://rotlaus-software.de/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1369
where would i be able to get it for 2m6 professional? that looks pretty cool.

is this mean the one that I give the link or not? if it is you have to install rltoday software first and download the theme from the above reference after that you can load it from the option in your today screen
i need somethig for wm6 standard thas the rinku iconbar can be modified to work on wm6 standard instead of wm6.1?
It works perfectly fine on WM6.0 - I was using it without any problems before upgrading to 6.1
rinku works with wm6 standard? can you send me a printscreen?
no one knows any soft ???
h4waii can you send me a link or something so i can get the chome panel if thats what's it's called. i been looking everywere trying to find it im using windows mobile 6 but i have no idea on how to get it on my phone.

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 wonder why. I uses HD wall latest version to create a wallpaper.cab for my leo. but then it just hangs my sense and simply refused to start up the sense. Have to uninstall the cab and works fine.
No luck with HDwall....

Thanks for that!
For some reason i can't make HDWall work for my Leo...i'm getting also the same problem with the picture covering 80% of the space it should on the screen. I have tried all the instructions, i have Microsoft 3.5 on the PC and 3.5CF on the mobile, i have selected the right choice under Config in HDWall...still nothing...
Any idea anyone? Also i have the 20 quick links (with 5 ont he Home screen) and they always get messed up with HDWall or any 'all tabs' cab...My preference really would be to find a cab that allows the wallpaper to cover all the surface of the screen (ie also the 'Start' and 'Phone' lines at the top and bottom on all tabs) and then put it on al tabs without the need to create a cab and then run it via HDWall. I normally change wallpapers all the time so i want to save on the hassle to create the cab each time, run it etc. not to mention the extra space that it all takes on my storage card. This was possible with Touch HD, but have not found any similar cab for the HD2?

You're wellcome!
i want to try to make a windows xp theme for 6.5.X.
i thought, that would be cool, because the start button is on the lower taskbar..
i have a strong opinion of how it will look like, but i don´t know anything about creating themes for windows phone..
what programs can i use for creating this? i have read about microsoft custom theme creator, but when i load it, it says: there aren´t any windows phone 6.5 pro devices for your locale...
and i can´t load it..
what do all the others use for creating themes???
after i made 1 version for VGA, i will try to create all the other versions!
thanks, Downlord
You should first find all the files that you want to skin and then use a program like GIMP to mod or create your the files for your theme.
I think it's a great idea, too bad you are a bit late Check this http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7848598&postcount=2
hm, looks cool, i didn´t knew it, ill try it!
but i thought of something thats really a theme for 6.5.X, and i want to know in general, with which program i can make those themes..

/windows on your phone .
The easiest way is to download someone else's theme and see what files they skinned. You can then modify those ones or find the stock ones in your kitchen ( or /windows on your phone). You can edit manila graphics with cfcgui by Chainfire. Some things are just png's/bmp's/etc. for windows tsk's, but you also control some system colors in the registry (changed when you change a tsk).
You should really change your title to Question??? or something. Right now it looks like you make a theme for every device (except maybe hvga), and it sounds like you have a while before it will be complete.
waiting for qvga
how can i change it to a question??
