Here is a simple theme for PocketCM to match the graphics of the HTC Touch

Attached is my skin for the keyboard (post #2) and my theme for the contact app (end of this post)

Go HERE (http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?8,10031) if you want to see the screenshot in your browser instead of in a .zip (it is too large to upload here as an image)

Bubble update:
............Post #9 Gradient with arrows (GA)
............Post #10 No Gradient with arrows (NGA)
............Post #11 No Gradient No Arrows (NGNA)

Slight update:
.............fixed battery icon when depleted
.............fixed unreadsms icon
.............changed cell signal graphic

Hints about this Contact theme:
............ to go back a page, hold the upper right hand corner (where the OK icon is)
............ to exit when the OK icon is visible in the upper right hand corner, tap (do not hold) that same corner

There are three versions - the only difference is the sms panel view:
............ htctoucher Touch.zip (in the preview this is the screenshot with nothing written in the smsbox)
............ htctoucher Touch sms box.zip (in the preview this is the screenshot with "Old SMS Box" written in the sms box)
............ htctoucher Touch smspanel.zip (in the preview this is the screenshot with "Old SMS Panel" written in the sms box)

If you want this with an index on the right like the HTC Touch default contacts has, check out post #6 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2079737#post2079737)

And there you have it!

Enjoy!

I may be updating the SMS Panel version to have my usual bubbles from my 16 variant theme (not sure yet)
I am not sure what the cell signal icon looks like.. as I havent tested that yet (it is small so that the titles of the pages can fit within the given space)

And here is my keyboard skin



There are two versions

1. with (first screenshot) - you can see that next to the letter "a" and "l" there are faux letter buttons (they do not do anything when pressed, but give the keyboard more of a complete feel)

2. without (third screenshot) - this does not have the faux letter buttons, as you will see when comparing the two screenshots

to get your keyboard to have the same layout and look exactly the same, drag both files in whichever .zip you choose to use into your PCMKeyboard folder on your device, and then choose those files in the keyboard's options menu

enjoy!

Cool, thanks. I am going to try it out as I am always in search of the 'prefect' virtual keyboard.

I am like Indiana Jones....and the valley of the QWERTY typos.

Why is it that when the letter confirmation image ("feedback") comes up, the letter is half cut off? For example when i press r, the little "r" image comes up above the letter to let me know that i am pressing "r", however that image is half cut off, so that i only see half an r. Is this normal? This didnt happen with the skin i was previously using. I am using the .skin and .layout file.

Have you tried reloading the keyboard after selecting both the layout and the skin? That happened to me too after switching from one of my other skins, but I just reloaded the keyboard and that fixed it

hope that helps!

Hello htctoucher,

i really like your theme! :)

But there are some little bugs i've noticed:

1: The "characters left" (160/160) in the SMS Chat doesn't seem to change while typing. Only after a "pop-up" of the PocketCM-Keyboard apears over it, the display at this place is changed. Maybe its a bug of PocketCM.

2.: The first line of the contact-notes seems to be covered by the infobar.

3.: The OK-button in the contact-notes doesn't work. To get back to the contact details screen, I've to wipe over the screen.


I'm using PocketCM V0.21
and PocketCM Keyboard V0.14


Thanks for your reply! :)

Hello htctoucher,

This is known bug, but easy to work around. The character counter is accurate for about the first 50 or so characters, after that you may notice it stops counting. If this occurs, just click on the sms bubbles to hide the keyboard. The counter will update. Then you can click back into the SMS Box to start typing again. It doesnt bother me that much and i like that it is above the box where you type, but havent found a fix.

2.: The first line of the contact-notes seems to be covered by the infobar.

I was not aware of that, if I get time I will update this theme to fix that. In the mean time if I interpret what you are saying correctly, I am sure you can just hit the enter key on the keyboard a few times until you can see what you are typing!

3.: The OK-button in the contact-notes doesn't work. To get back to the contact details screen, I've to wipe over the screen.

For some reason this is like that on all the themes, I suspect it is a bug with the application. Pressing "OK" saves the notes, but does not exit them. If you want to save what you have written, press OK, then Cancel. If you want to discard your changes only press Cancel.

hope that helps!

Do not extract.

Download the .zip file you want to use and just place the whole thing in your PocketCM Contacts folder on your device, but do not take any of the files out of the .zip!

tell me if that works
