SPB Mobile Shell 2.1 Theme / Skin Collections Thread
- Thread starter Splitter
- Start date
mmm why do you say so?
I've "updated" my 2.0 to 2.1 and there are no problem with skins... (using blue ray one)
data connection icon - what we know so far and fixed qa_layout.dat
Nice to see a new thread. So lets freshen up about the newest data connection icon.
Whats been updated in MS2.1
- Professional now screen shows the data connection icon when data is in progress or connected to ActiveSync/WMDC
- qa_operator_small.dat has been updated which includes the *.bmp for data icons
- LockScreen.xml which includes the updated source code for qa_operator_small.dat as shown below
Here: Fix for 9 Button Layout
- you can now get 9 menu buttons and as well as the data connection icon when data is in progress.
- only thing replaced in this fixed qa_layout.dat is the launcher.xml which is the previously modded for 9 menu buttons
- may not work with some modded skins as they do not include the Professional now screen layout

Waiting eagerly for RoboDad's fantastic PointUI to be updated.
I agree completely with you: fantastic UI, waiting for update.
RoboDad PointUI Theme
I second that, with some other updates:
1. Eliminate the tab buttons, since the theme is gesture enabled. We can use the additional space for something else.
2. Redesign battery and signal icons. No need to have them big in home layout, small like in other layouts is just fine.
3. I don't see the need to keep MRU layout there. It would be better if it is replaced by task/appointment plugin such as Pocket Informant.
Thank you, RoboDad. Now you know, your fans are getting demanding.

Can someone make this compatible for the new version? and add the forth addon page to it? Thank you
It was based on this theme by lepsyfou and the only thing that was changed was the background

I disagree with #1 and #2. The tab buttons and the big battery and signal icons are aesthetically pleasing, as particularly evident in the themes from kulet78 and RoboDad. If I wanted lots of small icons and a cluttered look, I'd stick with the default WM today page.
And personally, I've grown to like the MRU page in kulet's layout. Swipe one way and I have my frequently used programs. Swipe the other way, and I have the full menu page. But because it basically comes down to one gesture versus two gestures to get to any program I have, I don't feel strongly about MRU one way or the other. That being said, there's already a calendar page (nice move to enhance the look of the home page), and I haven't seen anyone successfully incorporate pocket informant (or PocketBreeze...).
Calm
Good morning,
Enlight of the new 2.1 version, I have created a theme that will include the voicemail icon. If you may have noticed in my previous themes, I don't use the "small" data connection icons so this theme would not have it also. In my future themes I may include it but we'll see. For now, here's my first 2.1 version theme I call "Calm".
Note: I have grouped tabs into 3 different MAIN (bottom icons) sections:
Programs Section
> Launcher
> MRU
Clock Section
> Now
> Calender
Contacts Section
> 3 pages of contact pages
Gesture is limited to pages within each MAIN section since I grouped everything using xml code (used subforms within subforms). To go to a MAIN section, simply tap the related bottom icon. Each page within MAIN section will have an indicator at the bottom showing which page is currently displayed. Lastly, which ever page you're in before going to a different MAIN section, going back to previous MAIN section will show last page selected. For example, you're in Programs > MRU, then you tapped on Clock, when you tap on Programs again, it will display MRU screen not Launcher screen which is the first page.
I apologize for the lenghty intro, I figured this will answer a few questions before they're asked.
As always, this includes today tsk and S2U2 wallpapers (non-animated). It's also support landscape mode.

Outstanding! The design is getting more and more innovative. Just as I'm getting used to one theme, a new, improved one comes along. Now I just have to make more friends to fill up three pages of contacts.
Kulet,
Which tab is listed as Tab1? I use the Spb watcher to automatically return me to the Now screen whenever my Today screen comes up, but on these themes with the calender Now screen listed as 1 and the time Now screen listed as 3, I'm brought to the wrong now screen (calender instead of time).
Thanks,
Adam

Kulet78!!!!! Your work just gets better and better!!! I've been waiting for a good theme based on 2.1 before downloading, and I know have a worthy replacement of your latest Blue Ray.
Question: The small dots that represent the subform, is that part of the background graphic? Before Blue Ray I was using the Russian theme with text buttons - and I found that the contact pages with names (VIP, Friends, Work) was very handy. Can those dots be text?
Oh yeah... And a 10th icon for something besides games??
Thanks... And again I am soooo impressed.

This is nearly what I am dying to get. It will be perfect if the forth page integration of pocket informant. And the Now page is integrated with PocketAlarm.
Thank you Ijinsane.
im pretty happy with standard skin but does someone have one that would get rid of the X button and/or add another page of something useful instead? I see a lot of these skins have a 4th page... so a 4th page plus get rid of X on others...
new version compatable..
new version compatable..

By any chance do you have the weather icons you used here available for you WM7 theme? That would be the cherry on top.. (PS not the big one but the regular sized ones..)
