UPDATED 29/2 - iPhone-ish v4.2 Theme for PocketCM 0.20 - Green, White, YBLaze8

[DvTonder]

What is iPhone-ish?
I am using a customized iPhone-ish theme for my device and wanted to share it here:

I prefer to have my contact's phone number as my second line (as opposed to the company name as in other similar themes) hence the continuation of the iPhone-ish themes however, we have converged so much that there are only a few minor differences.

iPhone-ish Specific
:: Bolded First Line in contact list ::
:: Phone number on second line, instead of company name ::
:: Favourite 'star' overlay graphic on Contact Details Page ::
:: No outlining of Favourite picture on contact detail page ::
:: Small Button Mauve ::
:: 'Star' Favorite indicator in contact list (v2.2+) ::
:: Cleaned up graphics thanks to Davehutch (v2.6+) ::
:: new back button (v4.0) ::

v4.2 now available. It supports PocketCM v0.20 only.

Fixed in this release:
- Green (thanks brambk) and White sms bubble themes
- Edit box categories fix
- Add contact from sms page fix
- Header SIP menu fix
- Phonepad fix
- Smaller theme file
- New SMS Text bubbles and several other fixes.

Screenshots thanks to nanastas

See the known issues section below for remaining items.

Nice theme.
Problem though with sending e-mail. I select a contact, select there account, choose message store. The to section sometimes will work and show there e-mail and sometimes will not. Also the Pocketcm slides in and covers up the section where the body of my e-mail would be. Not sure if it was the english ini that did this or a bug with .18. Seems to happen in all themes now and i hadn't checked it until after installing your theme so it may just be a .18 bug.

can i get in vga version?

I LOVE IT!!! But... I can't get it to send a text message. when I click the field to start entering text, a lot of errors pop up and I have to soft reset. I have tried this with different keyboards too with the same problem. Any ideas??

This is a bug with v0.18 of PocketCM.

A temporary workaround is to select your theme and then do a soft reset so that PocketCM will load with the new theme pre-selected when you re-start it.

v1.3 (Jan 3, 2008)
- Fixed bug with the loading of the favorites not showing the favorite icon properly
- Fixed notes page colours

i like this, but you don't have some of the fixes of the dvtonder version 1.3 , like the favorites icon. also, for some reason, pocketcm runs a little slower with the eds theme compared to dvtonder theme, maybe it is just my imagination.

[DvTonder]

Can I ask that we keep this thread for discussing my theme (iPhone-DVT) as the topic clearly indicates, that way I can make fixes and adjustments as needed rather than intermixing discussions on 2 or more different themes.

[DvTonder]

can i get in vga version?

Unfortunately I don't have a VGA device to test with so may be a while until I can get a VGA version built, if ever.

[acc0101]

There is a bug actually.
When I scrolled the sms, there was a "Add Contacts" bar overlapped the screen

This is not a bug in the theme but a bug in pocketcm.

Updated the appropriate text as requested.

I made it very clear that I respect your work by stating clearly that credit goes to you (pardon the typo) for the original theme. I also left the original readme.txt file in the theme which clearly indicates this was your original work.

We are all working at making our devices and more specifically PocketCM better and I see no problem with me sharing my tweaks and bug fixes as long as credit is given where credit is due.

[extraducksauce]

jeez, i didn't realize that this was going to cause such a stir. holy crap. IMHO, i didn't think that this forum needed ANOTHER thread dedicated PocketCM and specifically to Torx Tevelopments iPhone theme. i liked the DVT revision and changes, so i went a step further with some color changes. sorry if i stole anyone's thunder and i humbly apologize. anyhow . . . ALL respect should go to TENE for creating the app and LETTING us play with the settings. Let's get that straight, too.

[AstronusX]

I agree, Torx Development is incomplete and haven't seen update on the iphone theme. This is theme by the way not code. We are aware this is modified version of Torx Develepment. Credit goes to both Torx and Dvt and especially Tene to make this happen

[extraducksauce]

DVTonder let's start working on the SMS bubble threader together. :-)

i wonder how you could set the sms bubbles on either side like that and not have the images pixleated. hmmmm.

You should ask Tene for this, currently version doesn't support this

Yes, it does support it - I have just released v1.4 of the theme with bubbles, see the 1st post.

looks good.

[AstronusX]

Astonishing... Can you make a blue theme that match with PointUI? I'm really appreciate if you can. Thanks!

good work guys, i was pretty close to making a thread with all of our tweaks combined. yea i had tried the bubbles in past versions but it didnt work, im glad tene supports graphics in sms now
since your updating it pretty fast and daily, i guess i can take a break now. lol
let me just say im using this theme on MY phone. ;)

cheers

[extraducksauce]

argh, nevermind, started a mash-up thread instead.

[DvTonder]

new version posted

[DvTonder]

A sneak peek at what is yet to come - if only I can figure out how to properly position the sms text.

[hayaticik]

it is such a cool theme..is there a way to eliminate the shiny blue line in the green and blue bubbles? when the bubble is big it covers the first line of the messages..it is kind of distracting:)
thank you
Hayati

[ggg123123]

thanks for sharing
i love the way it looks
great works:)

[TorxT3D]

to get the bubbles on left or right alignment.. to whoever is going to photoshop.. all you gotta do is leave some space in the transparent graphic on the left or right.. then set location parameters for the text. should be good as gold then

[DvTonder]

to get the bubbles on left or right alignment.. to whoever is going to photoshop.. all you gotta do is leave some space in the transparent graphic on the left or right.. then set location parameters for the text. should be good as gold then

My problem is not with the left and right alignment of the text but rather the ability to have the sms entry text at the bottom, next to the send button, fit into the recessed white faux text entry field.

When you start typing an sms, the text is right up against the top left corner of the graphic which defeats the purpose.

This is what I am trying to do but I suspect that it is not possible with the current version of PocketCM

[TorxT3D]

yea i was looking to do the same, because having the whole area down there white would contrast with the above and just wouldnt look right... thats why i left it all blue down there until a solution came around.

the only thing i can think of and didnt get a chance to try was making that bottom blue bar graphic taller and photoshopping the white space in where the text begins and where the text ends maximmum on the sides and bottom..

This is a known bug with version 0.18 of PocketCM, not the theme.

When you change a theme and try to send an SMS without restarting pocketcm you will get hundreds of errors pop up. Tene is aware of it and I am sure is working on fixing it (if not already fixed in v0.19)

What I did to overcome it is the following:

1) Start pocketcm
2) go to the settings page and select the language file and theme
3) exit pocketcm
4) start pocketcm
5) go to sms and start typing

Hi a wonderfull work, I like iphone theme... but I've VGA device, does anyone create a VGA theme? or explane me how i can do?

Hi a wonderfull work, I like iphone theme... but I've VGA device, does anyone create a VGA theme? or explane me how i can do?

Unfortunately I don't have a VGA device to develop and more specifically test the theme.

All I can suggest is to go to the pocketcm.com forum and download a VGA theme from there - then you can reverse-engineer it to make the iPhone theme work.

[petervbeck]

Hey all!
this is awesome, looking really great. The only thing i have noticed in all new v2.1 versions is the text in the green/red button.... i think it's no big deal, isn't it?
Thanks for this great theme!

You have to install and select the language file as well as the theme - the settings to disable the text on these buttons are found in the language file.

thanks very much, not it's working the way it should... :)
....damn i should have read the first post....shame on me! :eek:

[hi-tech]

Ok, someone englighten me on the english.lang.ini. Should it be dropped in the pocketCM folder as well? I dont see an existing file. What's its purpose?

[hi-tech]

Opps, ok just read the post above mine. Get it now, thanx.

[DvTonder]

Ok, someone englighten me on the english.lang.ini. Should it be dropped in the pocketCM folder as well? I dont see an existing file. What's its purpose?

Yes, it goes in the pocketcm folder as well (remember to rename it properly first)

By default, PocketCM uses english text and does not need an english.lang.ini file. However, if you want to disable the text on buttons to use graphical buttons instead, the only way to do this is to install a language.ini file that specifically sets the text labels to blank.

[superflysocal]

i really like your theme, but one thing I do like about Iolio is that the names of the contact are bolded and show up better. Anyway you can do that on yours also? Or perhaps tell me where to change it manually in case you don't want it bolded.

Look in the theme .zip file for settings.ini and then change the following lines:

contactlist.*.item.firstline.font=16p,regular,$fon t$,$dark0$
contactlist.*.item.firstline.highlighted.font=16p, regular,$font$,$high9$

to

contactlist.*.item.firstline.font=16p,Bold,$font$, $dark0$
contactlist.*.item.firstline.highlighted.font=16p, bold,$font$,$high9$

I must say I like the Bold name line and will be including it in the next release.

Any other suggestions?

Have a look at the new 'iPhone-ish v2.2 (PointUI)' theme in the first post - let me know what you think.

It is still beta, there are a few things I still want to change.

[Girvo]

Not bad, the PointUI theme is nice! Very usable! I don't like the black buttons though, they don't seem to "fit". Possibly the same blue as the title bar? :)

I am back at work now and my time is limited thus taking a break from the daily updates. The theme is now very mature and it is getting hard finding things left to do.

v0.19 of PocketCM will be introducing new functionality that may break older themes. I will update iPhone-ish at that time.

If there are specific requests for updates to iPhone-ish, just PM me and I will see what I can do.

hi my problem is,after selecting theme i try to press select language.
but there is nothing come out when i press it.

i ve copied the zip file and english.lang.ini file into poketcm directory.

You may need to make sure that the .txt has been deleted. You can't always see this extension unless you use a file explorer such as Total Commander.

Keep up the good work.

[davehutch]

in the keyboard section.
I can't get the text to line up on the keypad or disappear from the buttons
Any ideas where I should look in the settings file to solve it please?

EDIT
OK, got it all to line up because the phonepad settings didn't take into account the smaller $bottom$ value.
Also had to resize the Call and Cancel buttons to the same size as the main icons.
Also adjusted the Default picture settings so that it doesn't stretch and pixelate.
plus other bits and pieces like name only on the Contact List screen and a different font (Lucida Grande) which I belive is the iPhone font.
(attached screenshots)

Still can't get rid of the text on the Call and Cancel buttons though...any ideas?

Any idea about the text over the buttons?

Let me try to explain the history:

Torx-Tevelopment created an iPhone like theme in early January. Both Extraducksause (iPhone-EDS in the mash up thread) and I (iPhone-ish) started modifying the base theme to our liking.

I am maintaining the iPhone-ish themes and released v2.5 this morning to fix the bug with the phone pad alignment introduced with the smaller buttons of v2.3 and later. If the same problem exists with EDSv6, I a sure Extraducksauce will release an update to the smaller button version of his theme (it is based on my v2.3 so likely has the same bug).

Both of us have stopped active development (other than bug fixes) on our iPhone themes.

I was however asked to develop an PointUI-ish theme which I am still actively developing and is available on a separate thread.

Thank you for the updated images. I am still a novice at photoshop and was never too happy with the way they looked, however, given that it is not really a bug, I may or may not release a v2.6 with the updated images. Maybe I will wait a while to see if anything else comes up.

DvT

[DvTonder]

Any idea about the text over the buttons?

You have to use the english.lang.ini file attached to the 1st post (remember to remove the .txt extension (show extensions in windows explorer) and select the language when you select your theme.

May I ask a favour - I spent a couple of hours last night trying to make blue button graphics for my PointUI-ish (blue) theme and even though they work, they are very pixellated and jagged. Since you seem to know your way with graphics, and provided you have the time and it is not an imposition, could you take a stab at cleaning the blue buttons as well?

First off, love the the way it looks and how things are progressing. Was wonder what happened to the alphabet/categories on the contacts screen (not quite sure what that widget would be called). Its present contact screen on the default PocketCM at least v18. Looking and search I did not find a reference to why it was removed form your theme perhaps cause its not on the iPhone? Anyways I have like 400 contacts and while the finger scroll is neat using it to scroll through a list that long is too hard. I still would like to only use my thumb so the side category feature is really cool. Just a though or question. Thanks for all your work your theme is really neat.

You can still use your thumb on the side (both left and right sides) to quickly scroll down to a specific alphabet letter. All we have done is hide the index as it is not visible on the iphone and this is an iPhone-ish theme but the functionality still exists.

2 issues while using pocketcm. 1, is there any way to stop the keyboard from popping up as you slide to use the hardware keyboard? (Yes in settings input I check the large keys) 2, is it me or it's a little laggy on response when you hit the send button? Anyone else with these problems?

Thanks

Neither of these issues are related to the theme. Please post these types of issues over at the pocketcm.com forum where Tene will be able to address them.

[Salvatore2008]

There is a bug actually.
When I scrolled the sms, there was a "Add Contacts" bar overlapped the screen

Hi,

Are you sure that is a pocketCM problem ? Because i don't have this problem with default theme ...

Thank you for your work ;)

Thank you for this great theme, been using it for a while, latest update 2.6 is indeed nicer :-)

just one thing, in your ini file, you should add 2 items :

pressing "remove contact"
=> "contactdetailpanel.contactdetail.removecontact.dia log.text=Confirm contact deletion ?"

SMS not sent (due to network issues for exemple)
=> "contactlist.contactlist.sms.failed=WARNING, SMS was not sent !"

[namco]

Partially fixed, the window title still displays

The theme is just perfect, excellent work!

I suspect it is a bug in PocketCM. I have mentioned it over on the PocketCM forum for Tene to look at.

[DvTonder]

I will post an update to the iPhone-ish themes (v3.0), based on the amazing work of DaveHutch in almost completely revamping the graphics, once we have worked out some of the remaining bugs.

Dave has spent countless hours since this weekend working on his changes which will make this update extra special :-). Thank you Dave!

[nonegiven]

This is my favorite skin. Can't wait for v3.0

[DvTonder]

V3.0 beta 1 posted. Blue SMS theme only at this time. Still working out some of the kinks.

[salahnajm]

wonderful theme, however in contact details: pager numbers, second home numbers, (numbers other than cell, sms and home...) don't have the white tab background... rather they're blue like the old iphone-ish theme which makes it kinda ugly...

Excelent work DvTonder, how can get some favorites on the favorites view, i don't find any button there to add the contacts....!!!!

Is there a way to send a message from the SMS overview window.......because i become the keyboar while pressing besides the button send in the same window, but i can not type anything....??

Thanks for your effort!

To mark a contact as a favorite, go to the contact detail page and click on the contact picture. A menu will show and you can select to add the contact to the favorites

To send from the overview window, select the contact you want to talk to and type the sms as normal

THX DvTonder, I just can say, you've design the best available skin for PocketCM.

[mcoquet]

Kudos DvTonder :) New design is great ! However I just found out a bug :

on a contact details page, if I press the email address, it prompts me which account to use to send an email (SMS or MMS in my case, I don't use POP3/IMAP), and this brings up the messaging app, but in the app the "send to" address is : "on.contactdetailpanel.close" :confused:

any idea where it might come from ? other than that, seems to flow pretty well (maybe a little bit slower to trigger the options panel on a long phone icon press...)

Thank you. However, credit is not mine alone. DaveHutch is responsible for most of the new stuff in v3.0.

[rtakeo]

why this big difference size

iphone-ish v2.6 (Green).zip (133.6 KB)

iPhone-ish v3.0 (Green).zip (419.8 KB)

and this new.. version its to slow

iphone-ish v2.6 (Green).zip (133.6 KB)

v3.0 uses images for the buttons on the contact details page thus the larger size. This makes it larger and slower than v2.6.

If you want the fancy graphics on the contact details page, use v3.0, if you want speed use v2.6.

[canadiankorean]

How does one delete a contact using this theme?
Thanks

[ChefChaudart]

Hey all!
this is awesome, looking really great. The only thing i have noticed in all new v2.1 versions is the text in the green/red button....

How do you get these 2 green & red phone buttons ? They don't appears to me ?

[r04d5t3r]

How do you get these 2 green & red phone buttons ? They don't appears to me ?

try tapping a contact in contact list for more than 250 miliseconds and the buttons will appear...

Will there be a PocketCM 0.19 version of the skin?

BTW, keep up the good work! We really appreciate what you have done for us ;)

If I get time I will work in it today and post something by end of day.

[DvTonder]

v4.0 Beta 1 wiuth support for pocketcm v0.19 uploaded. See first post

[superman.namrepus]

I love this theme and I think you did great work. It is running really slow on my devise (HTC Touch/Vogue). The Dream theme that comes with PocketCM works fast and great. Is there any way to speed this theme up to match the speed of the Dream Theme?

Thanks for the great work!!!

Kevin

[DvTonder]

Beta 2 uploaded.

In answer to the speed question: unfortunately this theme is very graphics intensive and as a result will be slower that other, leaner themes. Not much I can do, sorry :-(

[spunks3]

for some reason im having problems opening my favorite contacts. i can open pocketcm, but when i choose a fav. contact, it closes... (beta 2)

[DvTonder]

This is not a theme issue.

MY suggestion would be to close pocketcm and then delete the contacts cache file in the pocketcm folder. maybe it got corrupted.

If that does not work, post a question to Tene over at Pocketcm

[wschom]

v4.0 Beta2 now available. It supports PocketCM v0.19 only.

Fixed in this release:
- Landscape mode supported (except Dialpad)
- Index feedback bar changed
- Final edit contact page

See the known issues section below for remaining items.


Please do not post adaptations/changes to this theme without PM'ing me first. I want to complete it before we start creating copies.

V3.0 supports PocketCM 0.18

What about the future?
I am leaving on vacation soon and wont be able to update this theme after tomorrow. Will see how far I get and leave it to the others to continue.

What is iPhone-ish?
I am using a customized iPhone-ish theme for my device and wanted to share it here:

I prefer to have my contact's phone number as my second line (as opposed to the company name as in other similar themes) hence the continuation of the iPhone-ish themes however, we have converged so much that there are only a few minor differences.

iPhone-ish Specific
:: Bolded First Line in contact list ::
:: Phone number on second line, instead of company name ::
:: Favourite 'star' overlay graphic on Contact Details Page ::
:: No outlining of Favourite picture on contact detail page ::
:: Small Button Mauve ::
:: 'Star' Favorite indicator in contact list (v2.2+) ::
:: Cleaned up graphics thanks to Davehutch (v2.6+) ::
:: new back button (v4.0) ::

Be sure to check out the ExtraDuckSauce's iPhone-EDS theme at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356419

I have been working on converting this to VGA. I have almost completed it but home one issues. On the contact detail screen the icon and address area is cut off. Do you know which values I need to change to correct this?

[extraducksauce]

checked out beta3, but v19 seems like there's a bit too much going on and it appears slower.....idk, v18 for me, i guess.

[anja31]

If you´re looking for a german version...

based on beta 2 with some colour changes in header, german buttons, and so on; look here please:
http://www.ppc-welt.com/community/showthread.php?t=124729

most of the credits goes to DvTonder.

cheers and regards
Anja31

[DvTonder]

I am leaving on vacation in a few hours and won't be back until mid February.

I will not be publishing a Beta3 version since nothing has changed since Beta2. Beta 2 is quite stable and except for the phonepad bug in 0.19b, is quite usable.

Between Anja31, Extraducksauce and DaveHutch you are in good hands for further updates.

[sbello81]

hey guys, i'm LOVING the theme. the only thing that bothers me is that i can't edit contact by tapping the name in sms like we use to be able to, but i don't think that has anything to do w/ the theme. this is making it very much more enjoyable...fantastic job!

[TechBill]

I installed V4

It look nice and good job on it but I got 1 issue.

Pressing "SEND" on SMS isn't doing anything or sending the SMS out.

So the messages I typed out just sit in the box and pressing send button next to it does nothing.

Right now I have it set to use WM old app sms instead in the optional until I figure out why the PocketCM sms send button isn't working.

I have no idea if it the PocketCM end or the theme end that issue is coming from but wanted to post to let you know.


Great Job on the theme!
Bill

[MaxMotus]

You need to hold the Send Button briefly to activate sending. Its a feature of PocketCM to stop sending by mistake.

So that what it was. Thank you for the tip! and is there a way to shorten the require time to hold?

Bill

[MaxMotus]

Errr.... not sure. Prolly a question for Tene.

The time is about 200ms, Not sure if DvT has feedback on his "Send" button. Some skins have feedback so you can get a feel of how long you need to press for etc.

Hi - I have v19b of PocketCM... but when I try to follow instructions, and select any of the ZIP file themes... nothing happens... it just turns it back to that yellowish "dream" color.... thoughts?

Am I an idiot doing something wrong?

[MaxMotus]

It sounds like the zip file you are putting in has a parent directory. ie Make sure the files are not in a foler in the zip file. Instead they are just zipped up.

If you open the zip on ya desktop go inside the folder, select all the skin files and zip up. Don't zip up by clicking on the folder.

Hope that helps.

You came near to the target. On the yellow theme you already have created, press at 2/3 from bottom-left (or 1/3 from bottom-right), a menu will pop up, drag up to " Go to options" choose the select them, and then "Select theme" you will have your theme.

Just try it.:D:D

I am working on v0.20 support for all y themes. Updates will be posted as ready.

Current bugs I have noticed:
- the original 0.18 sms bubbles are not working perfectly with 0.20 as I had hoped - Fixed!
- Keypad is showing phantom letters/numbers for some reason - have to figure out where to disable
- SMS character counter is back - need to figure out where I want to put it
- Maybe more bugs I have not discovered yet.

Beta 1 version for 0.20 uploaded

Thought about sticking with the default PCM 0.20 theme as it's quite nice, but having used the iPhon-ish theme on previous versions I thought I'd give the beta a go.

Fabulous! Great job. I'd thoroughly recommend it to anyone.

Just one quick question; on the screenshot at the top of the htread, the SMS bubbles look to be grey and green, much as they were on the previous version. Now mine seem to have retained similar colours to those in the default theme. Bug or design change?

Again, great job - really like this.

It is a design change for now as I have not had the time to create the new bubble graphics in the appropriate colours yet. Will get to it soon-ish and post beta2 (there are a few other bugs fixed)

When you see this 'orange' version of pocketcm, it means that no theme has been loaded.

Can you confirm that the .zip file is in your \program files\pocketcm directory?

Anyway for the quick butons at the bottom to have descriptions beneath them. Star having favorites under it. SMS, Contacts, etc?

[zerone72]

Sms letters counter is missing. :(

[brambk]

Sms letters counter is missing. :(

You can add it yourself; just add the folowing lines in the settings.ini file:

panel.smspanel.smscounter.box=80%,15p,100%,28p
panel.smspanel.smscounter.font=10p,regular,Segoe UI,$high9$

[DvTonder]

Sms letters counter is missing. :(

Yes, it is by design.

It would be very easy to add it back in yourself.

1) Open the theme .zip file and extract the settings.ini file
2) search for the line panel.smspanel.smscounter.font=none
3) replace it with panel.smspanel.smscounter.font=8p,regular,$font$,$ high9$
4) Update the theme .zip file with the new settings.ini
5) Re-start pocketcm and you will have the counter

(on line 3 it is $high9$ not $ high9$ - for some reason the forum inserts a space when you save the post)

I don't use the counter myself as pocketcm automatically splits long messages into multiple sms's if they exceed 160 characters therefore I don't particularly care about the character count of my messages. I also find it makes the header section look messy.

If I get enough requests to add it in as a standard to the theme I will consider it. PM me.

I changed the line as you described above(cut and paste. I can't made mistakes). But, after this change, when i load the theme "iphone", pocketCm show the theme "white" instead of the one i choose.
I've tried to switch to other themes ("touch") and went back to "iphone", but pocketcm shown the "white" theme again.
Each time i've changed theme, i've restarted pocketCm.
Strange behavior ! Isn't it ?

(sorry for my poor english, I'm italian)
Tnx in advance.

I've attached some screenshots of this version. By far the best theme out there, great work.
How touchy is this new format for themes? I'm trying to make modifications like font sizes and colours, and the slightest changes causes the whole theme to qo squirrelly? Not just your themes, even the others out there.
Weird.
Again, great job.

Two words: Very Touchy

You really need to know how all the panels etc work and what the generic settings are or you can break the theme quite easily.

Did you double check that you do not have the space in $ high9$ but it is $high9$ (without space?)

Thanks for a great skin, but the new 4.2 doesnt run well on my htc artemis. It locks up when trying to show all contacts. Then i have to soft restart... Not sure what happens, but for now i'll go back to 4.1 which works fine apart from the sip-menu dropping down when i try to close the application (is there a close button in the top right corner? - I don't see it, but it works randomly)

There are very few differences between 4.1 and 4.2 and I find it strange that 4.2 wont work where 4.1 did. Which beta version of 4.1 are you using? does it crash on the first start?

One thing you may want to try is delete your contacts cache in the pocketcm folder and restart pocketcm.

To prevent the sip menu from dropping down. you can edit the 4.1 theme and add the following line to the header section of the settings.ini

header.*.hit.box=40p,0,-40p,100%

Thanks for your quick reply.

It seems that this morning it does in fact work, but it is a little slower than the 4.1 version. Not sure why it works today though.

I still cant find the close button (if there is one?) sometimes it works by tapping the battery icon, sometimes in right hand corner of the 'all contacts' topbar.

Is it possible to map the keypad to another application like for example the dialer.


Thanks!

Is it VGA support? :)

[slackline]

No just the normal QVGA i think it is called...

[DvTonder]

Is it VGA support? :)

I wish I could do a VGA version but dont have a device so dont even know how it looks on VGA.

I have the Microsoft emulator installed and if someone can tell me how to actually connect to and install an applicationj on the emulated rom I will install pocketcm and see what the theme does on VGA.

Strange indeed. I suspect an issue with your device maybe?

4.2 should not be any slower than 4.1 - the images are the same.

There is a phantom, non-visible [X] button in the top right corner like all WM applications. Clicking in the same location will close/minimize the application.

You can also minimize the application by using the hardware OK button or the bottom right menu icon (press and hold for 250ms)

Thanks. I've been using the phantom button, but is there any way of making it visible or at least larger, so i dont have to stabb like crazy before hitting it?

I also have another question regarding this brilliant application. Is there away to make other applications load pocketcm instead of the original wm contacts/adressbook?

[agentmikeyd]

anyone else having the SIP selector menu popping open each time CM is opened -- this only happens when I am using the iphone-ish theme.... :(

Try one of my HTC-ish themes and let me know if it still happens.

VGA device is using a size of double size from QVGA, which is (480x640)
I think you can use "Nyditot Virtual Display" software to make your QVGA
transform for a while to VGA :D
Please make some for VGA, thanks :)

Love this theme a lot. I was originally going to make my own iphone theme but I just decided to add on to yours. I changed the SMS bubbles and background.

Very, very nice bubbles, I like to have them.
Please share!

those bubbles look eXACtly like the ichat/iphone's... amazing job!

they would really pull this theme together nicely
would you mind sharing?

ask DvTonder first, though as I am sure he would like to know you have made new bubbles to go along with his theme!

thanks,

He did ask me and sent me his updated theme to upload. I have added it to the first post.

Sorry it took so long - have been busy.

I have loaded this theme in the first post - iPhone-ish v4.2 (yblaze8)

[extraducksauce]

with the help of davehutch, i've attached a simplified iPhone for v20 (notice that the center buttons on the contact page are now gone)

Just one suggestion for the bubble by yblaze8..

it would look better if the text within the bubbles were moved down about 6-10 pixels i think so it doesn't get lost within the highlighted upper part of the bubble. (Just move the text box)

I think that would make them look even better

very close to iphone!
nice job on your theme

[!Kernel Panic!]

not sure what's the matter...maybe its my noobness but when I select any of these kewl themes...I see no text. Only the pics attached to the contact. The index on the left appears but none of my contact names..

Any help is greatly appreciated...

Edit: nvm had to close app and then restart PocketCM.....excuse my noob a$$

[DvTonder]

On a side note:
Vista-ish v1.0 will likely be the last 'official' theme I release. I spent my time figuring out the workings and documenting the settings.ini file and am happy to say that my work has now enabled other, more graphically inclined individuals like htctoucher, PhilD41 and PoorlyDuck to take the torch and run with it.

It was a lot of work but it was fun!

I don't post here much (my first!), but just had to say thank you for such a gorgeous theme (to DvTonder, and Yblaze)!~~ thanks to those whose names I sadly don't know, that also contributed to this. Great theme, and makes using my phone amazing!

[Alexandru_unicul]

is there a way to stop this application other than task manager?

[kraminc]

ok i did this and it worked (thanks alot for that), but now when i use the PCM Keyboard the letters dont show up when typing! i fixed this problem with a registry setting for regular sms on the phone, but with pocketCM its back! help?

Has there been any fix for this?

[DvTonder]

Yes, use the menu at the bottom of the screen - select the phone, hold for a few miliseconds then slide your finger to the 'x' and done

[DvTonder]

I believe there is a problem with XT9 and pocketcm sms - this is not theme related though. You have to disable XT9 of you use PCM keyboard. Look over at the pocketcm.com forum for details

[oecheazu]

i was hoping this theme will take over the default. but it seems like i have to go through pocket cm just to use it. how can i make the theme takeover my default one...even if i don't need pocket cm, i just want my text them to look like that of iphone...that will be nice..

thanks..:)

Here is what I get when I choose theme I-phonish and try to get a contact's detail. Anything to solve the problem?

Thank you

Hello, how can i make that your application be default for sms...
thanks :=)

[davehutch]

you will get a better answer there.
Depends on whether you want it to show your SMS by default when you receive one, or to activate when you want to write a new SMS.
Tene, who wrote the app will be able to help if possible

where am i able to download that skin?
