Windows Mobile 6.1 + Rinku's Iconbar only
These are my Slide Themes. The first five are installed as one package. It's called Slide Custom. For the different Wallpapers you have to choose the right ColorScheme!
Now there is a new approach. I created a theme called "Slide Own Wallpaper" where you can easily switch backgrounds. For this theme you have to put two pictures in "\My Documents\My Pictures" called portrait.jpg and landscape.jpg! The default color scheme is black, but you can choose the others like Red, Blue or Brown etc...
The last one is distributed separately, because it was made on request.
For the Call Screens and Branding Brick install the cabs from the zips! Download them all from the link to MediaFire below!
Don't forget to donate!!!

I have made a little Slide theme, with a Panther background (from Mac OS X)!
It works with Rinku's Icon Bar, so you have to install that too. Just copy the contents of the "Rinku Iconbar" folder to \Windows and apply the reg file. Then install the cab. Done
I've got Rinku's Icon Bar Installed, so is it just a matter of installing the cab or do I have to install the Icon Bar files from your zip to get it to work?

How do i apply the reg settings??
Thanks for you help and i can wait to get this onto my vox.

31st March 2008, 01:51 PM
OH I forgot to mention that this is WM 6.1 only.
If you have that just copy the file to your phone and open it, but you need a registry editor installed on your phone too.

Thats for that.
I'm running Dr. Martin's 6.1.
The reg file has been put into my documents on my phone but i cant find a way to add it to the reg :S maybe i'm just being really dumb with this!
(PHM regedit is installed also)

i have no icons in the iconbar. it is completely invisible. i think if i press the button in the middle of the nav-button (the one with the arrows) it just opens my regedit (wm6.1 dr gonzos) and does not inlcude the keys, could that be?

Hi
thanks for the work put in so far, i really like the blue
just have one gripe, the callprogress png's where not replaced
so the entire theme is blue, except when in a call, then its the default
htc green. can we add the 2 portrait and land scape png's at some point
thanks

3rd April 2008, 05:58 PM
This is not a big deal, do you want the same images as call progress? Or do you have anything different in mind?

My compliments for this theme ! I really like it. I have one question: When I use your theme with the icons, there is allways an envelope displayed on the top left of my screen. Is there a way to remove this envelope ? I have no unread mail/sms etc so I would expecvt that the envelope disappears.
frauhottelmann
5th April 2008, 10:06 AM
Mh, go into the messaging app and open your last message. You have to select it (it should be like bold before) When you leave, it should be gone!
Bandis710
5th April 2008, 11:02 AM
:eek: thanx I do not have the envelope anymore. Turned out that I had one unread email (somewhere in the middle) and that caused the envelope to display. Sorry for the noobish quesion.

Thanks frauhottelmann for such a nice slide theme! Blue is so cool.
But you seem to have removed the "Windows Live" and "My Photos" from the Home Screen...any help in getting them back?
Edit: I edited the xml file, and its ok now...Thanks!

frauhottelmann,
New Origin screen is good but so bright and mixture of colour patterns that fades out characters, difficult to read anything on homescreen. Panther is surely a good one, very clear. :)

Hi frauhottelmann ,
i really like your panther screens. But i have an issue when switching my profile from Normal to Silent, and then rebooting. On rebooting, it says the homescreen cant be opened for this Profile, and a white screen in place of the home screen.
Also, the homescreen defaults to "Slide" from "Slide Panther"
Let me know if any of you folks faced this problem on WM 6.1b Martin Doc's ROM on Vox.

For people who don't like the white font on the homescreen (because of very bright wallpapers, like Slide Origin) you can select Text: Black under the color scheme option. It'll change your font on the homescreen (and only there) to black, thus making it better readable!

Incoming call

I'm just wondering if there's any way with Rinku's iconbar to have a more traditional edge/gprs icon? If not is there any way to have it only display whichever one is currently available? I've altered the icon colours to green for inactive and red for active which makes it easier to see on the pebbles.
Also, on the incoming call screen is there a way to alter the text colour to something other than black?
Thanks.

16th June 2008, 06:47 AM
Frauhotelmann, could you modify your themes to work in 96 dpi? As they are now it's lot of wprk to make them size compatible with the 96 dpi ROM.
frauhottelmann
16th June 2008, 03:12 PM
What is not working? Could you post a screenshot?!
bellor
16th June 2008, 03:53 PM
Iwill post one when I get home tonight. The thing is (and you will see this) that the iconbar gets cropped by the homescreen (i.e the bottom part of the signal icon, battery and everything else)
frauhottelmann
16th June 2008, 05:24 PM
Oh now I know what you meant, I've noticed that, but I don't know a fix for it!
@Prof. Yaffle (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=893547):
Could you share your screens? I could make a cab for these screens too. I was too lazy to make them myself!

16th June 2008, 07:26 PM
I've uploaded them here (http://www.muppetgallery.co.uk/pebbles_extras.zip). I've also included the replacement IconBar icons with the rainbow signal strength shamelessly stolen from h4waii :rolleyes: and the green and red edge and gprs icons. I've just noticed the incoming call I used is a different size to Dr Gonzo's original but it seems to work okay.
bellor
16th June 2008, 09:04 PM
frauhottelmann, you could shrink the icons for the iconbar in order to fit the 96 dpi sizes if you wish to make a version of your themes compatible with this ROM. Of course, only if you want to.
frauhottelmann
16th June 2008, 09:23 PM
Yeah, what size does it have to be? I believe it's usually 27px!
bellor
16th June 2008, 09:25 PM
i really couldn't tell you... i'm sorry
bellor
18th June 2008, 11:02 AM
Yeah, what size does it have to be? I believe it's usually 27px!
I thought about this and it seems to me since it's 27 px for 131 dpi you could make the icons at 20 px for 96 dpi. I simply used proportions to calculate this.
frauhottelmann
18th June 2008, 03:02 PM
You can try it on your own. I don't use a 96dpi ROM, just open Application Data\Home\Slide Custom.xml and look for the iconbar part, there change it from 27 to 20, save it and reboot. You'll see if it works!

Good day frauhottelmann,
First off, my compliments on your WM 6.5 ROM. Works great on my Vox.
Now my question, when I load the Slide Custom or the panther skin, on the home screen ,it give me an error saying invalid xml file and none of the other modules, i.e email, settings or anything other than the time and date show. Is this because they are not compatible with 6.5 or is there something else wrong? any help would be appreciated.
Thanking you in anticipation,
madewet
