Well, Ive been searching for months trying to find any stand alone start menu icons to fit with my Dusk theme as i love dinks taskbar but its changed my start button and my animated loading icon.
Before you accuse me of not Googling or searching threads, all i seem to keep coming back to is the 6.5x only thread, nothing else. They look awesome but no use to me.
Any one able to point me in the right direction?
Also if you know where I can get a choice of animated loading icon (eg.spinny win mo symbol) that would be great.
Thanks in advance!
No one?
You cant be telling me there aren't any..
..other wise what did you all do pre 6.5.X??!?!!

Look here it's a link to someone else searching, we can try to keep it in one thread, I can't find them for the life of me. I did have quite a number but I am gonna trawl through the Themes and Apps and see if I can find the thread.
original ganjaman has done some start buttons for 6.5. and i know he is lookin into it. best to ask him to make u one . I've learnt how to make them for 6.5x but not for 6.5 .
hope it helps
Thank god for you guys!
Thanks lads! I'll move my search over to that thread.
I know what you mean, I used to have a collection myself but when i got the all in one Dusk theme had no need for them anymore.
I must of been searching for the past few months looking with no joy..
Damn you Dink for making such a tasty taskbar!!!
If I find a hefty amount anywhere I'll make sure I share them around!
Thanks again for your help!

Hey guys / gals..
My girlfriend saw what I did to my phone, and fell in love with it.... but she wants it to look more, girly. I know i know...
So, are there any good roms floating around, that have a pink / purple look to them? Just curious....
or could I install the new duttys rom and get it to look more girly using some program?
Any info is helpful, thanks
Try Schaps ROMs. Here is a WM 6.1 one. These ROMS are good...and have lots of Purple in them
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364048
Try Schap's. His trademark is the purple theme and skins... =)
Well, the Schaps ROM is as purple as they come!
And it's a very stable, well designed ROM - try 4.40 for WM 6.1
EDIT: These three posts came up at the same instant! That's why they are so repetitive

Yea... it's cool. LoL... that means it's good information!
I've never used any ROM's except for Dutty's so I didn't really know who had something stable and who didn't.
If anyone has any other suggestions keep them coming... i'll keep checking this thread. Thanks again
Dude,
Why dont you download ROM that you are familiar with so that if your girl want you to do some tweaking or ask you help on this and that, at least you know the ROM and save yourself from embarrassing moments not knowing how to answer your girl's question.
Then, look for themes that looks pinkish or have flowers or anything girlish. Rite?

You beat me to that answer. Windows 6.1 roms have some "nice!" home themes too that can be used.
I would also recommend you check out _Alex_ roms. He has done a lot of hard work, research and tends to answer any questions about his roms. He is not out for fame and his feet are firmly on the ground so I would whole heartily recommend trying out perhaps his Multimedia rom or his home rom. Ask your girlfriend to write a list of specs she wants from her htc. Then go shopping for the best rom. Once you have done that then hunt down some home screen cabs with the colours she wants.

Alex roms seem more stable than any others I have tried and I have tried a great deal. Also the above link has a great deal of info and images and a easy to follow wiki specific to his roms etc.
All the best

Good information, thanks I suppose I could just skin the ones she has... but I figured i'd see if there were any out there already done up. Skinning only changes SOME things... wasnt sure if there were any roms out there that would change the calc and dialpads to some "pretty" colors lol.
Anyway, thanks for the help.. think i got my answer(s).
Try to get her to do the flashing/installing. In this way we will atleast have a flashing addict with a girl that likes it too.
I guess there are not many of us around that can say, our girls/wives like flashing
Here's a great site with zillions of themes:
http://www.pocketthemes.com/download.php?op=viewdownload&cid=1
Install SPB Mobile Shell....you can use colors like red, green, pink, etc.....
Along with Schaps Rom as you can see is the #1 suggestion
hey everybody,
i just went from the iphone which i had for 3 years to the fuze and i would like to get the 6.5 version. i am new to the process of installing everything so if anyone has and tutorials, tips, or the best software to use please let me know. i checked out youtube and i didnt see any really clear info. any recommendations or how to info would be really great.
thanks!
Welcome, Glad to see you finally chose the right device....lol

Good Luck.
Hi and welcome to our playground.
Here are some nice rom's that i think are great:
EnergyROM 'Photon' is a very popular rom lot's of updates releases fast.
CM-XOR MM PRO Manila 2.5 VGA is the one i am using right now it has a very good batterylife (3 day's on normal use, with other roms i get at the most 1.5 day's).
It also has a ported version of Manila 2.5 which i really love.
DynastyPro Series is a rom that looks and feels more like the iphone which you might want to try to compare to your old phone.
For new apps for your phone you should check the Development and Hacking forum.
Lots of great stuff to play with.
If you want some other theme for your manila interface you can find lots of cool stuff If you want some other theme for your manila interface you can find lots of cool stuff in Customizing TF3D - The Collection!
Hope you find these links usefull.
See you around.
Make some time to check the Raphael section of the Wiki as well ... tons of good information there too.

Manila is the graphic interface that replaces the default wm homescreen.
There are currently 3 different versions around (correct me if i'm wrong)
The original build 1, the enhanced build 1.5 and the even more enhanced Manila 2.5 edition.
Those are the ones i know off.(there is also a 2D version but that is for phones not able to run 3D.)
We are a bunch of s***-ups (no harm intended)
If anyone else had posted in here asking that question he'd be flamed, but since he's from iphone to WM (which all of us agree is sooooo much better) we start handing him out all the good threads
Specialy you hilaireg

Very true
hi guys i posted this earlier but in the wrong place.. i really need some help with my htc hd2 im looking for anything to funk it up and maybe some cool apps.. any games anyone thinks are cool... and before i forget can i change the clock and themes really want to change them!!! thanks for your help and hope to get lots of replys!!! mark
come on mate... i will warn you now before you get a flood of abuse hurled at you..
just use the forum search....
or just go through the threads in this section of the forum...
the most popular ones tend to be the most updated...
new to this!!
new to this i can take abuse!!! only joined yesterday and was just after some help as im not very technical we all have to start and learn somewere dont we... so those who feel the need to abuse please feel free to and those who kindly wish to offer help please feel free to... thanks mark
Hi mate, I agree that everyone has to start learning from somewhere.. You don't have to be very technical do use some of the apps and themes. Just read very carefully the instructions and you'll be fine.
Now I know that a lot of people don't like the words "use the search" but in that case it's the best thing to do. Just type "theme" or :icon changer" or "tweaks" or "games" and you'll have a lot of results and different was to make your phone look and work better.
Nevertheless you'll have to do some work yourself by reading all the stuff.
Before I get hammered for i wish you good luck...
yea sorry i didn't mean to put you off or anything just, i know there are a few people on here who would crucify you...
for games i have FPSECE 0.10 which is a superb Playstation 1 emulator.. go to www.fspece.net for the details
in terms of other tweaks and stuff... i would recommend searching as everyone's taste is different..

Is there any YouTube Tab out there? I have searched and cannot find one....any ideas?
thanks in advance...
I think this would be nice, however I have never seen anything about a stand alone YouTube Tab. I wonder if someone could write the program to add the tab like the guy did for the Facebook Tab.
I searched for some info on how to make a custom tab, but I cannot find anything related to developing a tab.... any ideas?

hey thanks, but that is not what I was talking about....I want to make/find a tab for youtube (like the tabs on the slider, you know-the home, message, mail, internet, weather, settings ...etc,etc.. tabs?)...I also have youtube 2.6 BTW...
so I hope someone can help me out here, I am willing to put in work -the only problem is I cannot find the resources ?.....
+1 great idea
I think the guy working on the facebook tab found that HTC had done alot of the development work themselves and had hidden it away. Atleast thats how it reads. So maybe this isnt such an easy thing to do

Same here buddy, would be nice but doubt we'll se it happen any time soon..
yeah, I agree that it does not seem easy...seems like too much b$ just for something so simple....i dont know, I am not a newbie to programming, but this is like a whole other world of programming (or w/e you will call it)...
in theory: I would need to put a place holder for a new tab OR take an existing one and change it... have that tab point to/open up the YouTube executable and thats it!...
in practice (it seems): I would have to recompile/decompile/edit multiple manila files...? which even that is sounding much more easier than actual 'practice' of this theory...
any ideas?
this is such a great idea it would be very nice if they could figure this one out
it'll be even better if the dev's could skin the YouTube app a little so that it really intergete in sense
i really hope somewone is workingon this
sorry for my english hope ya'll understand my idea
greetz
this is a very difficult project for a very small gain.... to be honest - it may not be done at all, I would very much like to do this, but I think I should put my time towards something more significant...

As far as I've seen there is nothing like that, but I think it would be a great idea. Put a bounty out for it and see who can create that. I'm just getting my feet wet when it comes to making themes, otherwise I would be all over this.
