CHT 2.0 Softkeys glossy round transparent rat_2665 - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Cookiemonster introduced the new softkeybar in CHT 2.0. The standard icons don't look so well with my Lechu Firestorm buttons, so I decided to make my own keys. They should differ a little to the quicklinks icons, so they are round. I took some standard icons, searched with icon finder and modified these icons. The glassy round button (two layers with the icon between) is made with painshop pro. For the "done" icon there are two versions. For all who'd like to make their own icons the template is attached. Copy the files into the windows directory of your device.
My background is transparent. For this I used a blank 5E90131C_manila file (in the attached zip). But poyensa made a better solution. You have still a little line under the softkeys, but you also have a dark background for the menu.
And of course the original icons and 5E90131C_manila file are also attached.
BTW: The clocks are widgets you can find in this thread

EDIT: At a request I post a second set with the standard manila tab icons (only WM 6.5). You can use these for the free softkeys.
EDIT:[29/09/2010] A new version with the original white icons in the glas button.
EDIT:[30/11/2010] For easy installation I made a cab for the coloured standard buttons.
EDIT:[06/01/2011]For some time I've been using my white softkeys but they are changed at two positions (lock and phone) and have added some shadows. So they match more the coloured softkeys. They are in the CHT_2.0_Softkeys_glossy_round_rat_2665_white v2.zip.

Looking good ratt
I made myself a transparent menu/softkey background but had to go back to the stock one becuse I couldnt read the white menu text against a light wallpaper.....
im guessing theres an m9 file to change the text colour... any idea which one it is?

THANKs
^​

Great job! But why is the menu transparent now? I put the old Manila back and it's still transparent...

Looking great
Thx for this

The 5E90131C_manila file in the original cab is the file from the CHT 2.0 beta. Have you made a sense restart after copying?

Chris, I don't think there should be only one thread for CHT 2.0 stuff. Here are so many different theme makers with their own unique design. They will all make some new threads in the next time . This thread is one of my little contributions.

wonderful work. I love it.

In the first post a second set is added. These are the icons of the standard manila tabs. So you can use these for the free softkeys.

Yes! But I still hope for a little!
which components do you change with this cab exactly? just the slider thats completely hidden? looks nice!
nice work once again antonio... i am always impressed by what you manage to achieve.
couple of questions though:
1. even though you cant see the slider... does it still function?
2. are you able to still pull up quick links?

Can U make small grey line as bottom..? Like this, but nicer.. It will be great!!1
please re-up this!
nice idea i may give it a go.
what would be cool is if you could turn it on ana off. maybe slide the slide bar down to vanish then up to re appear. its probabily not possible but would be good to have the option to make it clear and solid at a press of a button.

All you guys might have to do is either edit icons.mode9 manila file and set visible=false under the icons you don't want displayed (there are 3 references/icon - 1 big preview, 1 for off, and 1 for on). You need to just add the line visible=false under each qtc for _on and _off icons. You can do this easily with m9editor.
You could also do a dirtier way of just making the icons totally transparent. This could be easily accomplished by downloading a custom icon set for your manila version, creating a transparent png square the size of the icon, and using cfcgui to replace all of the small icons in the slider with the transparent png. The bigger icon is used for the preview on your screen.
I've attached a cab using the 'dirty' way of doing it. The slider has a line at the bottom as suggested by Prodildo. It should work with 2.5.1921, 2.5.1922, 2.5.2011 and maybe others (slider I took the files from was compatible with those). The only problem I noticed was the date is still displayed on the invisible calendar icon (the 1 in the screenshot). That can probably be fixed in a mode.9 file, but I am at work and do not have access to a manila file dump.
**edit - I added the fix for the date doesn't show now on the invisible icon (but does show on big icon while switching tabs)

This appears to just be the bar behind the taskbar icons, not the actual taskbar icons themselves.
I have only guessed by the 8kb file size though.
That and the fact that I know the taskbar has been around for some time now.
Now I like that, a suttle and nice addition.
This really (and i mean REALLY) looks like another taskbar created by Brain (and later edited by Gfreek). For more info look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520547
Perhaps you could give some credit to the original creators, or did you come up with the exact same graphics as they did?

[LOCKSCREEN} MyMetroLock Update: 13.4.2010

This is a variant of my quite popular WP7S Lockscreen (which can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=651045)

What's new in this version
1. hardcoded background picture (the blue metro icons)
2. left aligned text matching the Metro guidelines by Microsoft
3. new font "Zegoe" Light and Regular (will be installed with the CAB) matching the Metro design
4. possibility for your own user picture!
5. skinned notifications (except voicemail - I don't use/need that)
A word about requests and compatibility:
This lockscreen is provided "as it is". I made it for a stock ROM HTC HD2 (1.66) and it works fine for me. Feel free to modify it to your wishes but - if you do - give a small credit to this thread. There might be issues with custom ROMs and other devices - I can't change that - sorry.
What should I do if I find an error?
Just post your screenie and I'll see what I can do
Update 13.4.2010: new release as MyMetroLock
Update 13.4.2010, 15.07: fixed an error with userpic - please re-download cab!
Installation:
a) grab the cab attached below.
b) remove all other lockscreen mods than install my cab.
c) make your own picture with Photoshop or similar with the exact size of 119 x 119 pixel and save it as user.png
d) copy your "user.png" into the "lockscreen" folder in your windows directory on your device.
e) softreset
Have fun!
Great! but are there any chancesto get this without hardcoded wallpaper?
PS This fonts are fantastic! Great work!
will do. but next week - going on holidays NOW
One more thing Could You upload this wallpaper used in your lockscreen so I could use it in my start menu? Thank You!

I really like this lockscreen, it's so clean.
However when using a bright wallpaper, you can clearly see that the clock is cut off at the bottom.. hope you understand what I mean! Just try it out.
Also I wonder in this Link http://www.mobilitynews.net/?p=11018 , is all notification icons skinned in that version to?

Of course, here is the result:
As you can see, there are only a slight cut off on the "0" on the clock now. However as I have marked, there are some cut offs at the calendar also.

Fast answer: Only the "g" (Imorgon) is slightly cut off now, Everything else looks perfect.

Elegancia CHT Toggle Switches and Icons

Here is the full set of Toggle Switches and Icons for CHT 1.8.5 which I put together for the latest Elegancia CHT ROMs. The switch and icon backgrounds are 60% transparent so your wallpaper is partially visible through them, and when you toggle the switches on the icons become 'backlit' and with a very slight green 'on' hue around the edges. They are a collection of some of Anhphe076's original icons which I have modified and recoloured slightly, plus some of my own mods/creations. Feel free to download and try them - hope you like them!

Hey P, the switch and toggle pack for CHT 2.0 is way more extensive than CHT 1.8.5 as there are also additional toggles, status indicators and tab link icons, etc. I have made a completely new set for Elegancia V1 CHT 2.0 which should be out in the next day or so so at present they are exclusively for that.
Ok. I'll wait to see that too.
Thanks.
Cheers.

Loved your work... Congrats I will maybe "jump" into your weather program - Just donated / you should receive something.
Three questions if you have a minute:
1) Your taskmanager icon (for example) appear transparent while mine is still the classic HTC taskmanager one... Is that part of the theme
2) I have difficulties with the taskbar : cannot get the windows icon +"start" to get sexier, and the link you posted caused the HTC to fully crash ( 6.5 vs 6.5.x I think )... any good "all roads" Taskbar you would thnk of ?
3) Your softkeys seem grey/dark, like your full theme... while my elegancia softkeys are Blue.. anything I could or should do ?
THANKS. Andre

I have been working on a couple of new battery widgets for CHT 2.0 and here is the first one. It is based on Poyensa's original text battery kitchen but with quite a bit of modification.
There are four layouts each giving a different text formatting option - UPPERlower, lowerUPPER, UPPERUPPER, lowerlower.
There is also the option to hide the 'percent' string, and to specify the color for each line of text through registry changes. The 'percent' string is enabled by default. To hide it use your registry editor and change HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\CHT.duncTextBattery.Percent.Visible to 0
The font used is named specifically for the widget so it is easy to substitute the font for your own and it won't affect anything else - just rename your font to duncTextBatteryFont.ttf and copy/overwrite to \Windows.
You can also specify colors for each line of text through reg edit. Default is white for each line. To change edit the following registry keys:
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\CHT.duncTextBattery.ValueColor
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\CHT.duncTextBattery.PercentColor
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\CHT.duncTextBattery.ChargingColor
Values are RGB and need to be in this format - 255,255,255 - with no spaces.
If anyone is interested the colour code I used for the percent string in the screenshots is 0,185,255.
The widget background is dynamic so it will change height depending on how many lines of text are visible. If you want to remove the background then just install the 'Remove TextBattery background' cab or use CFCGUI to replace the background image with a transparency of your choosing (13d93430_manila)
There is also specific behaviour built in that dictates what lines of text show when fully charged, so if battery is at 100% and on charge all that will display is 'FULLYcharged' (percent hidden even if normally there), but if at 100% and not on charge then ONEhundred will show (with percent string if not hidden by reg edit).
Resizeable and pinnable.
Pressing on the widget will take you straight to the Battery & Backlight options screen.
Any questions please ask!
For those of you having an issue with the widget displaying as a white box I apologise - this is caused by the qtc image file not conforming to a recognised size. I have amended the qtc now and updated the widget cab and the Remove Background cab, but for anyone who has already installed the widget and has this issue just download and install the White Box Fix cab and restart Sense - should be OK then.
2/2/11 Charging color fix - the first and second versions of the widget cab had an issue where the Charging text color did not change regardless of the value set in the registry. This was due to one typo in the lua script (Tect instead of Text!). The widget cab now attached has the fix included, however if you have already installed then simply download and install the Charging Color Fix cab. Might need a Sense restart for the fix to take effect.
For anyone who wants them I have also attached the files for the Comm Switches (cab) and the softkeys used in the screenshots. In the softkey zip you'll find the ones I use as pngs to copy/paste into windows, the manila file for the menu background to do the same, and the psd template in case you want to make any of your own.
The icons down the left side of the screen are the page switch links and notification icons (mail and messages) that I made for BLUE SK-i. You can download the switch links cab and the BLUE SK-i skin for them in THIS post, but unfortunately I can't find the skin shown above for them anywhere (must have deleted them by mistake) so you'll need to use the psd template from there to remake them if you want this look.

Hi Dunc,
Just to say Big thanks to you and Poyensa for sharing another great work.
I made a Dinik's Anastasia skin for this one so I'll like to share it if you don't mind
Just copy/paste/overwrite the attached manila file in /windows directory and reset Sence and enjoy it!
Best regards.
BTW I fixed the AddonWidget Slot 10 problem thanks to Poyensa, Thanks for your help
