Sweet...which 6.5 rom are you both running. I got bored with the one I had but this is causing some new chills...

It wouldn't be possible to make a cab for just the wait cursor would it? I like the icons and I love the wait cursor, but I don't like the start menu logo so I guess i'm being picky.....sorry.

Very nice icon. Is it any cab for the same icon for WM6.1 QVGA?

Can I install this to UltimateX V4 by Abusalza? It is with WM6.1.

Can you separate the cab for just theme, just icon, and just wait logo? That way we can choose what we need
Your dialer still is the best one, works perfectly on 6.5
Thank you!

I could try...but is not easy since the wait icons are inside shell32.96.mui ...with those other icons I will try to do it over the original speakers and so then.
PS - what start menu logo u like most? sugestions are welcome that was just something to feel different
Hugs

OK I will do it

I've changed those in both 6.1 & 6.5. The Bars are part of Shellres.dll where the image above the bar is either shellres or phcanoverbmp. They are actually 2 different images and is why they look wider than the rest of the icons. In Shellres there are 5 bar icons, only 4 are used though in most ROMs.

There will be regular updates until this is perfected, but if you do download and use it, please post in the thread so I know its working fine.
Thanks

My pleasure if you're after the coloured battery line indicator that is above the taskbar it's a freeware program called Batti. Which can be found here http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-batti-v2-1.html
Good luck in customizing your Diamond2

Just try it and see as cab can be uinstalled with no danger to your device. If you are installing a clock cab just uninstall to your original white clock before installing a new clock. Remember to back up all your data if you're not sure, a hard reset is the worse that can happen as it's all to your own risk.

Sorry don't understand what you mean there. Install SDKcerts and .NET Compact Framework 3.5 and retry, I recommend you should have these installed anyway to your device.

Semi transparent tabs
Hi,
Is it possible to have all tabs (e.g. mail, messages, music etc.) semi transparent in such a way that instead of having black background one can have same background as on the home tab?
Thanks a lot

on the first post you have a (very) black bacground. In the 4th post you attached that wallpaper from the 1st post, but when I use this as my background it appears to be grey to almost white. How did you get that wallpaper to be so black???

You want to have your background image visible on all tabs?
You should use HDWall to make you a .cab for this

Hey Antonio,
Why don't you open a new thread & put all your mods there... I am using most of your mods but time to time you come up with something new
If you can make one thread with all your mods, easily we can subscribe and will be lot easier to keep a track..
Just an idea but I think it's useful ...
Thank a lot for all your contributions mate .. keep up the good work

How did you install the background?
Did you use HDWall? If so, have you also installed cookie's HQ patch?
Grtz,
Degake
edit: I think you have this effect because the background posted by Antonio isn't the highres image he uses (but only a preview). The image Antonio gave, is only 216x359px So it could be because of this

Transparent slider background - how?

Hi!
I played a little with HDWall today and got a little Problem with it: The slider bar is "hanging in the air" due to the grey background. How do I get this thing transparent (the background, not the icons )?

Have you new tabs? ( docs, ereader)

NRGZ28 flushed the eReader-tab, but the documents-tab is still there. New is the call-history-tab...
So here´s the full listing:
-EnergyROM 23549 + Cookie´s Home Tab
-WM 6.5.5 build 23548
-Manila 2.5.20121225

If you're using the same version of Manila as I am (2.5.1920), you need to install a transparent version of the file 511c6915_manila to 'get rid' of that 'curtain' behind the slider. If you're using a different Manila version, it might be a different filename, but the effect should be the same.
Antonio also has a cab that will add transparency to the slider in several places. It may be more than you need, but he can at least point you in the right direction...

CHT just makes it appear transparent by skinning the taskbar (only in portrait mode if I remember correctly). To actually make it transparent, you can edit aygshell.exe and shell32.exe of the WM build you are using and copy it to \windows. See thread below for more info:
