Your App is going to Rock. Themes had been a major wanted feature and till now was possible via some custom tool. I have done a review on wpxbox

Also I will suggest you to check the Windows Phone Hacker Tool and see if you can get something like that done specially for Installed Apps or Homebrew Tools.

Secondly Can you get the process automated which will be like replacing the start screen with the theme or pin all of them automatically.

You can try the Windows Phone Icon Maker Tool http://wpiconmaker.codeplex.com/

Hi Livven, thanks for pointing out the scaling down of tile icons. We will look into that. Also, unlike Supreme Shortcuts, this app does not require Homebrew. We don't have direct access to the actions that Supreme Shortcuts offer. We might do a homebrew version of this later on, to make this a real launcher. As of now, we are focusing on non-homebrew version. Thanks!

wpxbox, thanks for the input and the review! We will look into the Windows Phone Hacker Tool when we decide to go homebrew. I will need to ask my fellow coder if he's up for it.

Ah okay, so those things are limited by MS. Looking forward to further development then.

Hi. I'm trying and upload a new theme and am being told that the theme file is corrupt. I tried uploading your sample theme zip and then downloading it as well and get the same message. Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong?

Hi Agion, try to upload the zip file in this thread. For example, I uploaded the sample.zip file at the beginning of this thread. If you right-click on that link, and copy link, it looks like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...0&d=1324532072

Email and copy and paste that link into the download themes textbox in the phone app. It should download the theme called "sample" It's a duplicate of metro theme. On your list of themes, you can do a long press and the menu item will contain "delete". Click on that if you want to delete the downloaded theme. Hope this helps!

OK, and even better tip: In your windows phone web browser, long press on the link above. Pick "copy link". Paste the URL into the "download themes" textbox, and voila! Theme is downloaded into the app.

I am really at a loss. I copied your link and the theme installed fine. I downloaded the file to my desktop, replaced the one background image with one of my own (173x173 png), re-zipped keeping the same folder integrity, and still got the corrupt message. I uploaded to a different server (this time skydrive) and downloaded from there. Still no dice.

On different note, I did use a picture from my saved photos on the phone and created a phone shortcut. It seemed to work fine. Once I tried to enter your app again it would crash. I restarted the phone and tried again but could not get back into the app. I uninstalled and re-installed. It worked. I installed the sample file that you asked me to and it installed the metro theme. When I tried to enter your app again, it crashed.

I am running a Samsung Focus, v1.3.

Thanks.

Hi Agion, sorry to hear you're having difficulties. By the way, skydrive link has not worked for me either, even if I setup as public link. We will need to figure out exactly what Skydrive is doing. I will test on a focus phone, and see if I can recreate your problem. Do you mind posting the zip file you created? Thanks!

Very Very Very amazing !!!

I would like a paid version with not Splashscreen when i open a shortcut tile... with not add bottom the screen ...

More, when i open a shortcut tile and clic on back button to return in my screen home, the application is re-open. I must clic X2 to "back button" to return in my screen home! If i clic x1, i go in your application screen :s

Can you improve this ? ....

Thankx,

Poloche, we appreciate your feedback. We've received similar feedback from many people. We are working on a paid app with no splash screen, faster loading, and no ads anywhere. We don't want to charge people for a half-finished app. Please be patient, as we resolve these issues. Thanks for your support!
