Hi,...
I am looking for a solution to modify the Icons of *.url-files permanently.
Why?
I copied some spezial url-files ("DHL", "Doodle",... my kind of "Apps" ;-) to
the startmenu, and linked them on hometab.
There is a direct way for favorites (I know), but with URL-files in Startmenu it is also possible to change the single Icons with JWMD....
and with "url2Opera" it works perfectly, but...
...after some soft-Resets the Icons disappear and the original Icon gets back...
I already cleared the WinMo-Icons-Cache, and in JWMD the modified icons are still shown....
Has Anyone an idea how to solve this properly?
Thanks!
I am testing a "solution" now
Like told in my first post, i copied the url-files into the startmenu...
Now, I keep them in der favorites-folder, and only copy a shortcut into the startmenu...
Now i got a real *.lnk - file, maybe it works better now...
But, anyway, if somebody has an idea????

The theme slash app is available for download with some cool features i added like a new solid battery icon,improve HTc theme,faster scrolling now,support landscape mode now,haves zune on it now but not finish with it,and new weather design look for the theme and better darker text or like to call it words and for the last thing this improves the remove program app in setting now oh ya and its faster tell me if you find any bugs in it so I can fix it here is the file name u should be downloading to your windowsmobile standard device HTC Edition windowsmobile standard cab.zip you should find it in this thread
The next update will have a better interface, have 3d weather forcast,fix the homescreen problem with not supporting the theme somethimes but not that bad but needs more work and if you do have problem with it just go to your themes and just assign it to your device as your theme again and it should work ,finish the Zune App,and make it possible to change the clock to add better one"s,make the landscape mode better,and maybe able to change the start menu icons into htc icons and that is all.

u want to try it out
Htc standard edition theme for windowsmobilestandard
here is the theme but u would need the other cab files to look like mines in the picture and i adding the landscape mode so you can use it on your phone to and tell me if it works on your phone. wait nevermind you dont need those other files already install into this one enjoy
If you have any problems installing this you may need total commander to get the theme and the add on"s or u can open it threw winzip on your computer in just transfer one by one to your computer.It is almost 3 ways you can do it or just download straight from your phone this is third way
4/1/10 updated this post just decided to just give you all the cab files in the file to just make them seperate due to problems trying to put them and the same file format plus if i do put it in one file you may not like some of the stuff thats why i did this enjoy
theres going to be another post with the rest of the files couldnt fit all of them into this one.
thanks works perfect on my sgh-i637, but i have a question: when i try to change the background i go to app/data/home htc2 xml but i need to change the cpr file too?
no you just go to pictures and assign them ask your background
the layout you have selected cannot be loaded. please selecta different layout using the home screen item in settings
just go to setting then go to display then home screen when you get to the last part u should see something about home screen layout you would find HTC2 in there plus if you want to change background for it you should find the background image

deleted the old top pics
the problem i found with the thing keep say error about the background made because of screen size i think but mostly every theme does that on windowsmobile standard devices it just a glitch in the standard rom that they just need to fix or someone who wants to make a better rom for it would help it but is not bad it only happens only one or twice but is going to fix the problems and others.
Hi.. I've been searching around for a tool to edit or create the windows themes (tsk files) but I can't seem to find one anywhere (I did find one, but its not compatible with 6.5 - themegence).
Anybody knows of one we can use for 6.5 themes? Or knows of a way we can edit existing ones at least?
The main purpose would be to try to change a little one of the themes I use in order to solve a conflict it generates when using certain applications. Its the black theme (the stock one found in Omnia2, with the stock 6.5 rom). This theme has black backgrounds and when Im using communicator mobile I cannot see the text I typed after I send it bc it uses a black font as well. When Im typing I can see the letters, the replies I get from the others are also visible. This also happened with another app I used in one of its screens. I believe that its just a matter of changing the color of a specific text or background to solve the problem..
Any information/help will be greatly appreciated.

For what aplication do you want to edit .tsk themes?
Ok so we've all heard the news about CHT2.0 and all its great new features.....
Far and away the best new thing for me is the beast that is Micheldiamond's CHTS....
(If you dont know what Im talking about then check here)
What Im so excited about is that if you kill sense through too much tweaking ( ive lost count of how many times) you can get back to where you were before the crash in a matter of minutes........ its literaly a manila safety net...
It also gives theme makers the ability to dump a whole CHT theme / layout in such a way that it can be implemented in a much easier way than installing numerous cabs and individual tweaks.......
The point of this thread is to see how dumping a layout and applying it to someone elses device works....
This is mainly aimed @ miller710 who kindly agreed to help me test this but I figured Id post it in the forum for anyone who wasnt aware of this great new feature........
Ok on to buisness........
If you'd like to test out how this works then please follow the steps below and let me know how it works for you.....
This is not a release of a theme, its more of an "experiment en mass" with this new feature........
I've attached the layout I posted in the today screen thread here
If your not yet familiar with CHTS I'd recommend that you spend some time playing around and getting used to it first........
First of all, make sure you have CHT Scheduler installed and your baseline saved.........
Save any layout your currently using and check that it all works as it should by saving it.......loading your baseline then reapplying your saved layout....
If it all comes back in all the right places then we are good to go......
Unzip the folder Ive attached and then put the whole folder thats inside into storage card/_CHTScheduler.....
You should see your saved layouts and baseline already in there......
Once its in go for a soft reset.....
then when you go back into CHTS switch gui and try to change layout you should have "black n blue rss" as an option....
Try changing to that layout and let me know what happens......
You should end up with something like the screenshots...............
It wont change your icons, if your using dinik icons you will still have dinik icons..... if your using stock they should still be stock.....
You will not get the "blue tape" digital clock (because my lua skills arent up to scratch yet )
However you should have the wallpaper, widgets and quicklinks and blue soft keys in all the right places
There shouldnt be any serious consequences to this..... if something does go wrong you can restore you baseline/old layout........ however as always you do this at your own risk.....
Worked. However there are some broken links I think this if for programs that you have that I do not. I will post some before after screens in a few minutes.
Hey Troutman! First out there with a trial layout for CHTS (how long before you and Mob release the orange street theme as a zip for this... )
It seems to work fine (once I'd realised that you had to go in one folder once unzipped to find the one names CHTS_blah blah blah and copy THAT one to the CHTScheduler folder in Storage Card!). I'm assuming it won't look exactly like your screenshots - my layout has retained my clock/weather choice on the central screen and the RSS widget is above the clock, not below like in your screenshot. Also I have lots of missing quicklinks
I agree that CHTS is just as amazing as CHT itself - there has been a massive amount of work by MD - it has already replaced Phoneweaver on my phone for automatic connection and sound profiling. I'm just waiting for your orange theme, buff and GTX to be released in this format and I'll be away!
Just been switching back to my baseline as I've been typing and I still have all your quicklinks and none of my free links - hey ho, guess there's still some work to do...
See you back at the Dev group! Love the weather wallpapers you've done for the lockscreen - where can I get the full set?

DOH! should have though of that......
I should have saved a version with empty quicklinks,,, except for apps that come as stock..... opera etc......
Once I figure out how to do an xml for the layout i should be able to cancel out any links that point to apps other people might not have........
So it really is as easy as that........
Good to know....... thanks man!
I also had the problem when I switched back to my baseline. I lost my free links. The wierd thing is that when I loaded your theme, I got the custome cht toggles you used on ur theme. And when I switched back I got the old standard icons. So this seems to be a transferable item as well.
Then after looking it over I noticed that the custom cht softkeys also change with the theme loadout. apparently that is also something that can be transfered.

Hey Dunc, wasnt really intending it as a release, more an experiment and some shameless promotion for CHTS (not that it needs it )...
I think if your swipe up you'll get the rss in the same position as the screenshot..... i didnt post every page on every level....
and the digi clock will be missing because I cant get my standalone widgets to work....... unless you want to kill sense then they're great..... lol
The quicklinks thing was a stupid error on my part, obviously any proper theme releases will come as default with empty link.... I was just rushing to post before the missus gets home........
Not long for Orangestreet..... just need to hammer out the xml... I think thats the missing link.....
Not sure why your baseline would be affected......
Mine has always been rock solid...... If I thought that peoples "safety net" would be jeopardised then I would have held off on posting this because obviously I dont wanna cause people to have to go through a whole set up process again so sorry about that
Appreciate the feedback man thanks again

Yep, toggles will go across too.....
If I was using custom state indicators they'd show as well.....
As I said to Dunc, Sorry about your baseline....
Was it just the freelinks you were missing or did you still have the regular quicklinks too??
@Dunc001
Forgot to answer your question about the weather walls......
I cant take any credit for those, they're all mob's work...... they were in the dropbox in the chts folder...
If they're no longer there then let me or mob know and we'll post them somewhere for you.......
The glass circle softkeys are before. the Blue softkeys are after. Mind you this is after doing it for a second time so both sets of pics have your free links and quick links. When I reverted back to baseline it kept your icon layout just changed everything else back.

Once again man sorry about that.....
Can you revert to a previously saved layout to get your quicklinks back?

No worries man. I have been playing around with it alot any ways. What I can't figure out is why CHT occationaly just moves links around. I also have problems with the icons changing randomly for no reason at all. Any idea?

Maybe CHTS is set to switch profiles at certain times??
Ive linked MD( genius behind CHTS) to this thread so hopefully he can shed some light on this.....
Edit;
GRRR just realised I missed my 1000 post milestone..... lol
wanted to use it for something ridiculous in off topic........... oh well guess i'll just have to wait for 2000
Amazing!
For the quicklinks thing: I have a solution - will be in next fixed version, should be better then:
- It deletes the "old" quicklinks instead of overwriting, so there is no "mixing"
- you can disable quicklink switching with Layout switching in the settings.
Then let's have a look, if this is enough or if we need something more.
Great work, conan - I luv this style of your themes! But that you already know (Congrats to your 1000+, too *g* )
Micha
thanks md, probably best to leave out the quicklinks in the meantime...
I guess people are going too want to set their own links anyway...
is this the best way to share a theme between two devices, by placing the layout folder into the chts folder of another device? or is there a better way....
ha ha thanks for the congrats... it will soon be 2000 at this rate...

oh, overseen your answer, but with new CHTS 2.02 all the quicklink things, which are mentioned above, are soluted.
So Quicklinks are switching now also if they have different designs.
only the randomly moving quicklinks needs also a fix in CHT itself, but meanwhile it's counteracted as good as possible with CHTS, too.
And yes,simply placing and copying the Layout-subfolder is the intended easy sharing or saving of a Layout. CHTS automatically recognizes the new CHT-Layout (indifferent if by .zip or .cab installed) and can be assigned to any profile by the user. mmh...I think that you already know but perhaps some others not.
Thanx for your inputs!

Thanks Michel,
I think all the issues with the quicklinks are sorted now
Any layout I post will have only have empty quicklinks by default, obviously each user is going to want different programs in different places.
I'll still be setting the location of the link and if they want to re-arrange then thats up to them..........
I post here my screen, you like my work!...
Nice themes! How did you make the transparent slider? With the I C Thru U app?
Does it have this "cut-off" effect when you slide it or not?
It is a work created by me, everything you see in the theme or created in Photoshop (a watch, slider ....)
Try this topic:
First, install the clock then carbon theme, enjoy.

I've installed the sexy background theme,but I have this small problemn the home screen I can't see the wallpaper that comes with the theme(that girl in blue panties,instead it's the default wallpaper,the one with the road),and something else:when I scrool the tabs,back and forward the background splits,-on the scrool bar the bottom remains and the rest of the screen(the upper part) splits-.
Try uninstalling you soft reset and then reinstall the theme, if not, go to Settings and then use the default background, I do not know what to say other will be a problem on your phone.

I managed to create this issue with the basis of seven, I created clock and weather for S2U2.
_____________________
Thanks to Keko's
looks nice.How exactly can I use the slider with the clock and weather in S2U2.Thank you
You have to extract the GFX, then copy folder in S2U2 phone (clockH, weather and replace with the original) and then reset S2U2.
it doesn't work.I replaced the 2 folders and now I can't see the clock,the backgroung it's the same ,also the weather won't show up.
i take back my words.I've done some changes in S2u2 and now it's working just fine.Thank you and good luck !
Try this, and what I use, just delete your gfx and replace with this, then go to S2U2 Settings and change the format clockH etc. ..
Remember to update the forecast.
