Very nice bihal
I don't use WAD but if I did, I'd look at this!
I agree. Nicely done.
This is beautiful at 96 dpi. It needs adjusting to work at other resolutions. Thank you Bihal for the contribution.

Absolutely agree with that. The only thing I am having trouble with is the popout for the appointments. It pops out very strangely, only on a small box on the left side of the screen. Still tweaking it, but as I use my video call functions I have elected not to use RealVGA as it breaks the phone skin badly.

SKIN FILES
that is hi-res glass minimalistic VGA skin with files..If you have WisBar then unzip all files and copy them in Program Files\Lakeridge\Wisbar\Themes...tsk file copy into Windows directory,and in Today screen choose bista theme as default..Then go to Wisbar and select bista as default..and that is it...I have allready optimized sounds and images so if you want to change again to anything...help yourself...I have to notice that this is extreeme variation of bista,optimized for speed and design..I have another one...black...everyone can make a skin..but I choose to deducate my free time for tiny little design upgrades and modifications.
What version of WA2 are you using, or did you do anything special to install?
Every time I try to install, whether via desktop or CAB... I crash.
Oh, and also: It looks like you are running with NO Today plug-ins... is that correct? I assume you are doing so to maximize free program mem?
Thanks,

correct ! today plugins are just "unneccessery additive"..so in skins and themes I decide to rearrange everything for minimalistic "speed-way". So I do not have any "freezings" or sort of that problems...
concept...in origin WA2 theme.
volume bubble
..with Resco keyboard stuff
even the player looks like it always should be..
floating red power-close off" (two functional)

you need to unzip files first!..in some folder..then that folder copy into your device into folder..I am using Wisbar Advance 2 and nothing else..try again...unzip file and copy it into devices program file of your skinning application.. I think that some of our themes should be incorporated into Universal 6 to stay away from Windows Mobile "retro programming"...I think it is only a matter of time when some mobile device producer will choose to incorporate some ROM from here into their devices and products...That will be the best award to all our xda developer team who are working so much...Respect to all of them...

i really like this wisbar theme, i always loved the original wisbar on my xda11i but have never really liked the new version,
the only downside is, i mainly use my pda in landscape mode, is there any way to stop the start menu icon doubling up like it does? and its a shame the wallpaper doesnt match when in that mode, also how have u got that shutdown button down at the bottom?

MortPlayer and TCPMP Skin you can find in post 3.
My Windows7 Theme
with many new icons - also in the most sub menus. Only tested with manila 2012!!!
I changed more than 500 icons, all are coming with transparent background. Some golden icons are implemented. It was the work of two weeks and many hours in the evenings and nights.
Don´t worry...your language won´t change after installation of the theme.
Many of the files you will see first time after using it a while.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Download here as a cab (Many thanks to Steve0007).
More of Steve0007: Here, here and here.
Please, post a feedback for the other users. It´s not much work and the thread is refreshed. Also take a look to the keyboard at the end of this post.
EDIT: One bug is in the theme-please copy the attached 695552fb_manila (compressed or uncompressed) AFTER installing the theme cab with Total Commander to windows of your HD2 and overwrite the existing file, because the integrated is not transparent. Then your 2nd slider looks golden like in the preview. Thanks to hatori for his information.
If you have the problem with 6.5.x, that the slider icons are a little bit to high, look at the posts 208 and 209, there´s a mod from Dioky (many thx to him) and all is presented well.
My used graphical tweaks: Look here

Win7 Icons for your start menu
Here are 108 high resolution vista icons, 50% are "handmade". The rest is collected. All are coming with transparent background.
You need JWMD Icon Changer or hcomber to integrate them. The icons are named in english. Much fun

TCPMP/ Mort Player Portrait Skin
I made some skins for this version of
TCPMP for our HD2.
All tested. All only in portrait mode.
Elegance, Elegance Blue, Elegance Red, WP7 and Black, also some variations,
all in the attached package.
If you want to use them, copy the original files out of programs/TCPMP/:
fond.bmp, boutons.bmp und skin.xml in a folder on your storage card for backup.
Then copy the files in the zip folder (not the folder - only the files) into the program folder and overwrite the original files.
Start TCPMP and have fun.
A comment after testing would be good.
Black Skin (I was a little inspired of the "Devotion Taskbar" of Matt Jackson, which i use on my HD2)
If someone asks, who is the man on the picture...it´s our new german Superstar (like American Idol) Mehrzad Marashi, a really talented singer.
Look at this side and especially hear this (I´m Beggin´) or this song (Unchained Melody).
This is the winners song "Don´t Believe".
Download here and Black here.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Mort Player Skin
This is a variation of the rjblack WVGA Skin for the fantastic MortPlayer.
Bigger Cover, smaller buttons, more functional. Place the file rjblack_WVGA.mpz in the program folder of mort player. Then you can choose the skin from the program menu. The little grafic bug up in the left corner depends to the newer versions of the player. I placed the text a little more right, so this is not really a problem.
The player has alarm function, also EQ, many echoe-effects and much more settings. It has a better sound than the iPhone or the Nitrogen Player here on this board. Also it´s fingerfriendly (swipe up and down = next album/ previous album and swipe left or right previous or next track). It´s including many language versions.
Give it a chance.
Download here
Vista Icons
Now it´s done!!!
Release of the Dialer Skin/ Again with the big help of my forum friend Steve0007, who has finished the dll files and made many tests.
Version 1 (Europe/ WM 6.5)
Version 2 (TMo-US and WM 6.5.x)
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
For those, who don´t like the three dimensional answer button, please download the attached file and copy it to windows on HD2.
Or try this bmp from a user here.
Also for later.
For the future.
Again for later

Deactivate Sense and restart. Delete the 1cd2f8ef_manila with Total Commander out of windows. Restart again and activate Sense. Now it will take the slider out of the original Rom.
Tested the W7 Theme, just one word...waou....
Neo, i would suggest you start a new clean thread and post the cabs with sceenshots. If you need my help to cab some files let me know.
You came out with a nice piece of work Neo
Steve0007:
Thanks for your help. In the following weeks I want to create this theme I made some years ago for the Diamond - now for the HD2:
Pirates of the Carribean. It takes much time to renew all graphics and create new, but I have many ideas. When I´m ready, I will begin a new thread for these both themes. I would be enjoyed to get your help, creating the cab. If you are able to, please post me the original 2012-manilas out of the HD2.

I'm not able to get the theme .zip working. Is it possible to make it a .cab file?
Look at post 8, unzip the 2nd download to your pc and use one oft the included cab-files.
For the slider the cab-file is also posted there.
I am surprised your Windows Theme is not getting more popular?
It is a great job, some QTC files need clean-ups as they are no more use but overall this is maybe one of the most complete Theme
The reason maybe the presentation...when you open then thread, you see at first the player - I think about editing the 1st post. Most users don´t scroll down, only return.
About QTC: I have no experience in editing these files. And at the moment not enough time, to work with new things. Maybe, i integrate something in the next theme and edit vista-theme later.
But it´s good to know, that I have a help in you, Steve.

You are welcome Fran.
I am also attaching the zip with the cab for changing in black the text for the message tab. Always useful for lights BG!
It includes the file 115191c7_manila. It is very easy to modify it with m9editor, so anyone can change it to any other color. Just look into this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567515
Using the m9editor you have to find the <Property> Name=Color Value="R=0 G=0 B=0 A=255" for every <Object>Type="GLESText" and change it to your favorite colour in RGB code. You have to change the colour property in all the <Object>Type="GLESText" you find by pressing OK button, and when all are changed then save it (in other folder to keep the original) and CAB it into your device to enjoy.
This shouold works in manila 2.5.2012, but i do not think it will do it in others.
You can try with other manila files type mode9. Just look in <Scene> to have a clue what tab can be modified ...
Cheers!
great work! I tested on the tmo hd2, everything works but on the comm manager the top two didn't change. (airplane mode and in flight mode)

Hi
It seems that different ROMs/devices have slightly different icons in the comm manager.
If you can send me the files for your missing icons I am more than happy to whip some replacements up for you.
The files are in the 'windows' directory of your phone. They all appear as 'Function_IconName.png'
Here is an example of the thumbnails and filenames I have.

DINIK STyle Action Screen
I edited your cab to my needs and combined with dinik's icons, Marcdu81 HD2 connections cab, a little tool from lyriquidperfection's Touch Tools for HTC cab and renaming of actionscreen.exe to endkey.exe, i came up with a nice endkey replacement cab.
I'd like to ask you if you know a way when changing the orientation to landscape to also change the action screen in landscape.
here is a screenshot of the result
thanks a lot
BT73, this is great, thanks a lot. I want to try to make my own action screen.
But I have trouble downloading from rapidshare. Could you please post mirror links for these two files?
I didn't know something like this exists! I guess I know what I will be doing later! Thank you for sharing.

GTX Metro Style
This is my version based on GTX Sense and the Dark Square Metro Icons Set.
I got everything working but I was wondering if someone could help me make a cab that does all the steps, in case I flash a new rom. Also would be easier to share that way.

Here are the 2 BT73's files they are both inside the attached zip
Here are the details:
1. I deleted everything i didn't need from the original cab like *.brn files which are the icons that show up when you press a button, and all executables except from HTCActionscreen.exe and PowerOff_Warning.exe which i renamed them to EndKey.exe and Shutdown.exe.(leaving the dll's)
2. I edited AS_Bkgd_1.png from BT73's brnconvert.rar to the picture i uploaded in my previous post using Dinik's icons and then converted it to bmp and then to brn.
3. I extracted Marcdu81 HD2 connections cab that has some very useful executables and injected them in my cab in folder Actionscreen under windows.
4. I also extracted a little tool called Snatch Screen.exe from lyriquidperfection's Touch Tools for HTC cab which i also injected in folder Actionscreen under windows.
5. I edited the registry to change the shortcuts of each button to match the executables shown in the picture as buttons.
6. Saved the new cab and installed it.
In short this was the procedure if i forgot something or you have any question feel free to ask

Nice Action Screen DD9200,
Welcome to the club......
Endkey replacement replaces the Endkey long press function with a more options one, having the same looks.
The cab below works out of the box possibly on any WVGA, HVGA device and doesn't need anything else to be installed (just install and soft reset)
Changelog v4.5 23/07/2010
-Added support for themes. (Details below)
-Themes are in zip format and only the files needed are extracted (less space).
-When changing theme all previously used brn files are deleted.
-Pressing on the top left corner will bring up the changing theme process.
-Pressing on the top right corner will bring up the configuration options.
-All text written on the dialogs are contained in a single file (easier to translate).
-Added setup.dll which will run the process to apply your theme when installing and will delete all brn files from your windows folder when uninstalling.
-Customization dialogs are replaced with choices menus.
-2 functions to select for 3 buttons. (1st, 2nd and 4th buttons)
-2 themes in the cab (default and GTX)
-There's a shortcut now placed in start menu thanks to alesscam.
Changelog v4 17/07/2010
- Added a user customization wizard. (accessible anytime by pressing on the right top corner).
- Added confirmation window for bootloader.
- Changed confirmation windows of reset and shutdown (text and looks).
- Now all confirmation windows can be translated.
- Wizard options:
-- Choose if you want the app to stay loaded in memory or not.
-- Choose if you want confirmation windows or not.
-- Choose between WiFi on/off and Comm Manager.

THEMES
There are 2 themes in the cab one is the default and the other one is GTX.
You can keep as many themes as you like and change them whenever you want.
I you want you can grab the "theme.rar" file from the attachments and start building your own theme/translation. In the rar you'll find all the photoshop png's needed to be edited/translated.
Skinning Process
1. Edit all the png's (8 backgrounds and 10 buttons) in the rar or create new ones with your favorite editor (I prefer Adobe Fireworks)
2. If you create new ones don't forget to give the files the same names as the originals.
3. Convert them to bmp's.
4. Convert the bmp's to brn with brnconverter. (attached below)
5. Add all the brn files you created in a zip file.
6. Copy the zip file to your phone. (You can copy the zip file anywhere in your device as when you change a theme you'll be asked to find it but the default folder is "\Program Files\EndKeySkins\")
Translation Process
1. Make a skin using the above process translating everything you see as text on the png's (very easy if you are using photoshop or fireworks).
2. Translate the "strings.ini" file attached below and place it in windows folder.(You should translate everything that's after "=")

After some time with my previous endkey replacement cab I realized that I don't like too much customization so I decided to create something that resembles the original EndKey function in HD2 but with more options.
The cab below works out of the box and doesn't need anything else to be installed (just install and soft reset)
I have translated it in English and in Greek and I will be happy to translate it to your Language as long as you provide me the translation in a post. I won't change the functions though because I don't have much time lately.
