HOWTO: Create your own WM5 keyboard skin.

Tools you need:
1. WinCE CAB Manager (Trialware)
2. PE Resource Explorer (Freeware)
3. Image manipulation software (e.g. Photoshop)
4. A sample keyboard skin .cab file (From Buzzdev.net, thanks Buzz!)
Instructions:
-------------------
Run CAB manager.
Open the sample .cab file.
Extract the only file there. i.e. "msim.96.dll.0409.mui"
Do not close the manager yet.
Run PE Resource Explorer
Navigate to: Sections > .rsrc > Bitmap > 15361 > English (United Stats)
Right click on it, choose "Export Resource" and save the bitmap file.
Do not close the Resource Explorer yet.
Run your preferred image manipulation software.
Open the bitmap file.
Change the "hue", "levels", "brightness" or "contrast" etc etc to your preference.
When you have produced the result you wanted, save it.
Switch back to PE Resource Explorer.
Right click on the same resource you did earlier, choose "Import Image Resource"
A new folder will appear below with number "15362" and file in it is "Natural Language" or whatever.
Now, right click the original bitmap that still named "English (United States)", and choose "Delete Resource".
Then double click the bitmap you just imported.
In the dialog box, change the values to "15361" and "English (United States)"
Then exit the program and click save when prompted.
Switch back to CAB Manager.
Delete the only file that named "msim.96.dll.0409.mui".
Drag the newly edited resource file into the same space.
When prompted, under [General] set "Archive" and "System".
Under [Flags] set "Ignore date..." and "Warn user...".
Under [Location] choose "\Windows" but leave "Hard-coded path" unchecked.
Click OK or whatever to carry on adding the file.
Then double click "CAB Information".
In the dialogue box, change "Company Name" to whatever, "Application Name" to whatever, then click OK.
Now save and exit.
As usual, copy the newly modified .cab file to your WM5 PPC and click to run it. SOP.
Soft reset.

Skin not showing
I followed your guide, but I still get the standard keyboard. I even tried to install Buzz's skin, but again it didn't work. I am using a Universal (JasJar):
ROM: 1.13.53 WWE
Radio: 1.04.02
WM5: 5.0 OS 5.1.1700 (Build 14354.0.1.1)
Would appreciate your help!

No luck on my Qtek 9100 either. Does anything -besides- copying the CAB to the PPC and running it have to be done ? ( Other than waiting a while and then soft-rebooting )
Does anyone know about this as i have not been able to get it done aswell! It does not a thing!
soft reset
I installed a .cab I found on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1220629 post number 7 has a link to www.miousers.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=1812. After installing the cab on my phone I did a soft reset and it worked for me. Hope this helps you guys out.
If anyone knows of any sites that have more keyboard skins please post a link I would love to match the keyboard with my today theme.
buzz_lightyear sheds more light on the situation on this thread. Enjoy
I found a new white keyboard skin that installed fine, used it as base to make black one and mine still doesn't work.

How can I re-add the settings-page to my startmenu?

Hello,
I have deleted the link to the settings from my startmenu because I had the item twice with wa2. No the trial period is over and I want my settings menu link back :-(
How can this be done?
Edit: I forgot to say its wm5.
thanks,
dartrax
Do you really want me to hardreset?
Hello,
I have found out that there is a startmenufolder in the windows directory which contains the link to settings which i have deleted, so please could someone open the link to the settings page in textmode and post the content of it? Should be something like this: 21#:MSCALENDAR?outres.dll,-10002
thanx,
dartrax
Hello... ???
Is here... somebody... there must be
What's the problem?

My device, WM5, only has a 'Settings' directory under the \Windows\StartMenu directory. Sorry can't help you. Others?
Oh no, actually you HAVE helped me! I just created a new folder and named it to "settings". Although i left it empty, wm takes me to the settings now when i click on it! very strange...
thank you!!!
dartrax

Im sure it is a simple setting I am missing

I updated to Dutty's V3 and when I send a text message and start to enter a name in to TO field is does not give me a drop down list of names from my contacts to chose from. It used to in my old ROM. Any help?
Thanks in advance as always,

You need to disable xT9 for it to work, .cab is on the second post in the v3 thread

In the "create post" page, scroll down until you see the phrase "Additional Options". Then, under that, find "ATTACH FILES". And lastly, under that, click on "MANAGE ATTACHMENTS". You will be taken to a separate upload screen; upload the files you want and click "Close". Then, type your message, and click "Submit Reply".

That is how it used to be done here, it does t work like that anymore.
Now, the best option is to upload your attachments to a hosting site somewhere then post a link to its location in your posts here.

First, navigate to here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/usercp.php
Then under "Settings & Options" select "Edit Signature".
This may vary slightly depending on what theme you're using. I'm using 2015 dark.
Hope this helps!
Click your icon at the upper-right corner of the forum web page,
select 'Settings - Edit Signature'.
