sorry about not posting this here at XDA, i still wuv yous guys!! im a frequent at ppcgeeks. Without further ado. Thanks to Bob55 for the transparent icon tip, and Buzzard for the motivation. Without further ado..

NOTE TO ALL USERS
This theme like many others may require some tweaking and tinkering because not all devices and os installs are the same. Wisbar theming is not for the noob at heart, so if youre looking for a quick setup try itask or grumps iphone. These theme require basic knowledge of using wisbar products. Thanks.

Reminder to those having button pressing/execution of apps
When everythings been tweaked and adjusted to your needs, tap/hold lock all items on the page. Tap/hold lock all items on the dock. Exit out of Author mode

Download more icons specific to this theme here, http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=13018

**v0.4 Update "Transparent"**

**v0.4 Update Notes**
- iPhone .tsk updated
- All icons are now transparent .tga
- Added light WA3 theme bundled with the Classic Dark
- Working Clock defaulted in home screen
- Backgrounds now supported with transparent icon sets
- Dock now supported in leopard theme (look out for future dock packages by Torx-Tevelopment)
-----------------------------------

**v0.3 Update Telco Icons added and misc adjustments**
**v0.3 Update Notes**
- Several icons were updated in height, size, and color, telco icons added to "iPhone" folder so delete the original and replace with 0.3. Go into settings/wisbar theme and/or delete the old 0.1 or 0.2, and install and find 0.3
- Icons are custom2(tmobile), custom3(at&t), custom4(sprint). Goto Wisbar Settings/Taskbar and choose your carrier in the "Button Name", Make item visible, and Choose Align LEFT.
- Blue Batt charge icon still exists, it was just fully charged in picture taking.
- Also a new WA3 version has just been released for Nov 13, v3.1.0.3, so make sure you update for the heck of it!
- Enjoy!

-----------------------------------
**v0.2 Update, Landscape added!**
**v0.2 Update Notes**
- Place the "iPhone_Landscape" folder in the "windows/themes/desktop" folder
A new landscape carbon springboard and landscape black background were added to the package of graphics in the Portrait folder. The landscape theme calls on the graphics in the portrait folder.
- For best results, change the phatphinger layout display to "Phat(240x320)+145.wpl". Since adding the landscape it doesnt fit quite right, this layout size looks good in both portrait and fits well in landscape.

-----------------------------------

Please read the readme.txt
Theres very important installation instructions regarding the order of installing the apps, wa3, and wad.

Feel free to throw out a few icon requests if you need some custom icons made for your apps. Ive slimmed it all down to the bare essentials to be space saving and fast loading. Buttons are "tactile" for that feedback feeling, wa3 buttons are tactile as well, and nice loading animation created too. All icons are included as well.

Enjoy and feel free to post bugs or general feedback.

Hi Torx,

This by far the best creation for iphone theme for WAD/WA3. This is far more stable than 0.3. and i am a fan of yours. I am on Wizard and this theme is running for last one week. Ofcourse its not full proof. after a day or day & half you need to re-boot the PPC as the memory is too low (this is more so a windows problem), sometime the system becomes very slow but regains the original form after 5-10 min without any apparant reasons, during this time CPU is 57-65% used. The battery drain is more with WAD/WA3 running. This may be taken care of by them.

One issue i want your help is how to back-up the current configiration and file so that if have to reset or update with new ROM then my theme can be restored with minimal efforts and tweaking.

Just wanted to say I have settled on this for my Hermes theme. It is a fantastic piece of software. I am still setting up my phone. Any M$Office icons to go with this?

Hi there

Great theme, looking really good... BUT ^^

- My Phone SMS Email counter is blocked to 0, and I don't understand I too fix this
- I read on your post (maybe I missunderstood) that the clock in the home screen was suppose to display the real time (I mean on the icon)? If that is the case, then it's not working for me...

Can anybody help me?

PS: HTC TyTN II, WM6, and outlook is my e-mail client

cheers and congrats again ^^

You can set that up yourself. Add the empty clock icon from one of the themes, add custom text %T12% or %T24% (your choice) and you will have a working clock...

You can try Winterface by VITO software:

It's an iPhone-like interface that works with VGA resolutions.

If anybody wants it, I've got a custom Verizon icon for the taskbar in Torx's WAD/WA3 theme. I've also extracted some other icons if needed.

I was hoping that someone could give me some guidance please on using the .psd templates for creating my own icons for Torx iPhone skin?

As an example of what I have done: I am using Gimp but am somewhat a novice user. I have loaded the icon for eWallet as one layer and overlaid the blank_template.psd file on top. This looks nearly correct and I get the lovely shading of the template over the top of the original icon but does not quite mask out the Torx button shape as the template would suggest. Instead each corner still has some grey pixels.

I save the image as a .png file then convert it to a .tga with AlphaConv.exe.

Loading the .tga file into WAD works fine but I still see the grey pixels in the corners so it is not a "clean" icon image. So near yet so far...

Does anyone have ideas of what else I need to do? :)

What version of WAD is everyone using?

I just found this today, and decided to try it. So i downloaded the latest version of WAD ... which is WAD v2.0.0.1. When it came time for me to apply the themes to WAD, they weren't showing up! I couldn't find them anywhere from the WAD theme selector. The readme.txt says to download the latest WAD version for this.

After reading in a few forums, i found that themes created for WAD v1 do not work/showup for WAD v2. I did some searching around, and was able to find WAD v1. After i installed v1, the themes showed up!

This theme is RAD and pretty slick, but does not work with WAD v2+.

Anyone know how to make it compatible with v2? I will be doing some research on this, so if i find anything i will update.

Thanks again for the work on this theme! I love it.

Torx,

I recently purchased the omnia i910 for verizon and i attempted to follow your instructions to a tee regarding your iphone theme download. The step i'm alluding to is in the readme file under the WA3 and WAD install intructions. Its step 5 (a) under WA3 menu options. When i select the plugins option in the settings menu, there is nothing there to check. It reads "No items in this view". So I obviously did something wrong, and i was hoping you could point me in the right direction. I appreciate any help you could send my way.

Thanks

hi, first thank you for the time you used to creat this skin, and everything.
I just have a little problem, i copied :

"iPhone_Light_Portrait_v0.4" - WAD portrait light theme folder
"iPhone_Light_Landscape_v0.4" - WAD landscape light theme folder
"iPhone_Dark_Portrait_v0.4" - WAD portrait dark theme folder
"iPhone_Dark_Landscape_v0.4" - WAD landscape dark theme folder
"iPhone_Leopard_Portrait_v0.4" - WAD portrait Leopard theme folder
"iPhone_Leopard_Landscape_v0.4" - WAD landscape Leopard theme folder


in *root*/themes/desktop
but in WA settings, change theme, i do "scan for themes", and it told me " 0 new themes found " i tried to put it in WA/themes but it didn't worked too ...
so if you have any idea i would thank you.
