Update: Platina version (http://www.ziao.nl/2009/02/release-zifi-platina-edition/) released!

I'm sure most of you know the application called Wisbar, it allows you to skin your entire PDA.
I've just released a skin, and tough normally I wouldn't post that here, I thought you might want to know because it blends so nicely with Touchflo.

Here is a screenie:

(link fixed, site was online for some hours)

Have fun with it, and enjoy your Diamond :)

You need Wisbar Advance 3 on your device to use this theme.
You can get it HERE (http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products/pocketpc/WisBarAdvance/)

@tepps
ZIP file opens fine for me.

Easily solved:
Go to wisbar settings, press Taskbar, go to the 'Other' tab, and UNcheck 'The network icon uses the default icon' (aswell as the phone icon and optionally the notification icon)

Good luck with it, and thanks for the kind comments :D (thought i would get flamed or whatever for posting crap in this forum)

nice work

Also: i can't access the default task manager from the top right of the home screen(TF3D).

Wisbar isnt ment to be that finger friendly (yet), however you can enable an option to make the icons bigger then pressed, exactly the way touchflo does

I think it works but you have to press the icon at the very left side of it.
It's a small bug in Wisbar.

probably my server. Updated the download page (which keeps track of the number of downloads), it only allowed 30 seconds before timing out - explaining the lost connection. Changed it to 9999999 seconds, will that be enough :P?

To everybody who's having this problem:
Wisbar and touchflo conflict. To solve it do this

hit start, settings, system, touchflo, and disable the 2nd and 3th checkbox. 1st one doesn't matter

Do you wish to remove all icons or just that one?
incase of just that one;
its manila, you have to exclude it this way

go to wisbar settings, tap Tasks, tap Add, press the button with 3 dots, select Running Processes from the dropdown menu, and choose 'start.exe'
after that press ok, apply and it should be gone :)

make sure the animation files are in the animations folder (both the png and the .animate)

open the .wisbar file with notepad, search for this line:

and change it to this
Connection Normal=animations/connect.animate

LOOL i asked the same Question on the first day the theme was released and ziao tried his best and enlarged the battery icon but believe me if he can he would have done it:)...this man is the most responsive guy ever ..he's really trying to respond to every request:D

working battery icons are most definitly included. Are you using a custom icon (the one where you have to replace a few .dll's? I know several people here do, and it conflicts with Wisbar

Percentages in the battery icon are impossible right now, maybe in wisbar 4. Sorry

Try this:
Press start, settings, system, touchflo. And disable the 2nd and 3th checkbox.
Also I know there's an option somewhere in settings that allows you to Disable HTC's Taskmanager, but I'm unable to help you with that as my Rom doesn't have it by default.

Hope this helps, I'm sure someone else knows where that setting is.
Good luck!

Edit: That batterybar, is that a separate app or have you modified my theme?

I've allready tried disabling those, so I dont really know what to do. Though I said before nothing happened when I tapped it, I'll take that back, it's just the same regular task manager. It's not that bad, if I remove it I wont be able to see percentage of memory in use and such..

About that batterybar, it's Batti, it came with the Rom I use. I believe there's a cab for it somewhere on the forum if you want it.

Oh, and this might not have anything to do with your theme, but WisBar kinda crashes sometimes for me. First it freezed and a dialogue-box popped up saying something about a file/program didnt respond and therefore was forced to quit. I had to push the reset button to get the phone to work again. After that it worked fine until just now, (might be a coincidence) when I tapped the original task manager the phone just restarted, without any error-dialogue or anything.

I do know that it depends very largely on the Rom that you use, as all of HTC's program conflict with Wisbar. However on almost all roms i've tried i was able to fix everything.

About that error I get, happened today again, and it basicly says that a shellfile has stopped working and needs to close. I might have an idea what's causing this so I'm gonna try it out and see if anything changes.

Also, I had troubles with the original taskbaricon still showing. It's really weird, sometimes it responds as usual and sometimes the icon is just dead. Though it seems like it dissapears when I tap somewhere on the wisbar like it's in different layers and when I tap wisbar it pops over the icon...

I know about the second problem, HTC's Taskmanager conflicts with wisbars. You should disable it from the settings menu (HTCs one), and use wisbars.

Where exactly is that settings menu? Do you mean the one in TocuhFlo? 'Cause there's no option for those kind of things there for me.

Btw, I found a small annoying thing with your theme. In the calendar, you can't really see the dates of the days, well you can if you concentrate real hard but it's almost impossible. I understand if you're not able to fix it, but it would be great if you could.

Btw, I found a small annoying thing with your theme. In the calendar, you can't really see the dates of the days, well you can if you concentrate real hard but it's almost impossible. I understand if you're not able to fix it, but it would be great if you could.

Thanks

I think it depends per rom, but it should be found somewhere in (start menu) - settings - sytem.

About the bug, can you post a screenshot of it?
Also, are you using the provided .tsk or another one?

I'm not using the provided tsk, gonna switch now.

Edit: Sorry, but there is no .tsk file in the folder?

Ah wait, it's not the .tsk. Thought we were talking about Zifi Platin Edition, which does not have that issue.
Fixing it is easy, just make the menul.png image (in interface folder) a little brighter.

I assume you ment menubarl.png, 'cause menul.png doesnt exist. Gonna try it.

But is there no way to change the font color instead?

I came across this as well and performed the fix you later suggested. Here's my fixes for Zifi Green. I noticed the menu bar is originally 640x52 and shares it's image with the landscape menu instead of using 2 different .png images. It also doubles as a lower menu bar in some programs. So if you're a Diamond user, use the 480x52 version (The shorter one) and for Pro users the 640x52 image. By the way, how do you pronounce Zifi? Zifi like Ziffy, or Zyfy like Sci Fi? :o

I actually pronounce it like i would in my language, the I is like the word 'we'. Didn't really think about how others would pronounce it, but i don't think it's that important.
Btw, both devices should use the longer one. Diamond has landscape too you know ;)

Allright, the final result of how you pronounce Zifi; Siefie. Kinda like I first thought it would be pronounced, just got a bit confused :P

Btw, hows it going with the skinning otherwise? I'm waiting for you to release Relax^ in VGA :)

Hey man, I really like this App/Theme, but
I got one issue.

When i click for example on the network icon in the taskbar, it will show a custom screen with: Network, Phone connection, Battery, Taskmanager (Like HTC has aswell) Now that's ok, but i prefer the HTC one...
Anyways, when i click on the Taskmanager icon(Menu) on the taskbar, it will go to that custom screen aswell, while i want to go to the taskmanager.
If i place the OK button to the left, this will also lead to the custom screen.

Hope i explained it like you can understand it :D!

Any idea how to solve it?

Thnx, Escudo

To be honest, i have NO idea what you mean:p
Is your problem covered here (http://www.ziao.nl/2009/02/how-to-wisbar-diamond-glitches/)?
If not, please try again.
Sorry again :P

Escudo
13th February 2009, 07:25 PM
Nah,

Uhm let's see how i can explain it...

When i click on the taskmanager button(The one that shows the tasks running), it will bring me to the screen(Htc calls it System Status), where Battery, Volume, Battery, Phone network are beeing showed as icons. Like when you then press on the battery, it will bring you to the battery section.

Thing is, it wont bring me the taskmanager by clicking on the icon, when i do so, it will bring me to the menu with all those things, where i have to click on the taskmanager button to get there...

Hope this explains it better... :)?

EDIT: It seems that only the button in the far end right, which is the OK button for me, works like it should. All other buttons will bring me to the 'Summary screen'(which shows all things at once(System Status))
And i have turned off those htc things in touchflo.

[Battery_memory]
[Casc Star Menu]
[CloseOk]

Any way to remove those from the program list in touchflo?

Replaced the start button with the Windows 7 orb. Did the glowing animation too. Just replace these files, and install the theme.

Update: Platina version (http://www.ziao.nl/2009/02/release-zifi-platina-edition/) released!

I'm sure most of you know the application called Wisbar, it allows you to skin your entire PDA.
I've just released a skin, and tough normally I wouldn't post that here, I thought you might want to know because it blends so nicely with Touchflo.

Here is a screenie:

More info and a download can be found here
http://www.ziao.nl/2009/02/release-zifi-vga//
(link fixed, site was online for some hours)

Have fun with it, and enjoy your Diamond :)
I'm sorry.I don't know how to use it.

Hi Ziao,

Your theme for Wisbar is great, could you please post your White zifi-platina-edition on xda, looks like your website isnt working (I can't get to the download page).

Alternatively if there is anyone out there with the .zip file (white theme zifi-platina-edition) could you please post it for me.

Thanks,

It seems Ziao has disappeared... I haven't heard anything about legal issues, so I will go ahead and repost this excellent theme as requested.

If there are any issues, please remove this post. All credit goes to the original developer of this skin!

NOTE: I modified some of the files from the originals to make it work with WVGA. There may be some display issues in landscape for non-WVGA devices. I also merged some of the images with the other color versions for my personal tastes. I don't have the originals or I would upload them. Any changes I made improved the overall appearance, though.
