Thanks for the white theme. Looks good and works perfect. Do you think you could add some sort of percentage indicator on the android taskbar and have a seperate cab, that way if we want to use a different taskbar set and not have to loose your theme too? No biggie if not since the real one doesnt have it. Just makes it easier to determine battery left.

Ok, I have a question. I have an HTC Pure w/ no modding or anything like that. I downloaded the first file w/ the task bar. I installed it and it said to reboot my phone. So I went ahead and did that, now my phone is acting all funky.


I can no longer press the Start button nor the Start (touch) button on the screen. I haven't even activated the theme yet since I cannot even get to the settings since the Start doesn't work.

Any ideas on what went wrong or what I can do?

:confused:

Is there any chance you could upload just the files, as in not put into a cab.
Maybe zip them up and upload them.

There are certain images that I want to use on my device, but theres some that I dont.

(I like pick'n'mixing my own themes together)

Yes, but maybe in the next release.
Can you just upload Android Taskbar cab? it looks so nice... :)
Yeah will do

Yeah, i noticed that too.. i am going to change a few of the backgrounds just to make it blend in well with the theme better.

oops, are you sure uve got wm6.5.x? or is it just wm6.5 because if that happend am guessing its wm6.5, this theme for wm6.5.x.. have you got manila or sense? because then because the start menu's gonna be disabled go to settings tab and go to applications,remove apps, then remove the taskbar you should be back where u started..


@ everyone Thanks alot for the support! :) ive skinned most of the bar now, although the taskbar only shows 3 bars not 5 :\ Is this a big let down? should i change it back to 5 although this may not blend in with the android as good as this one does..

For me it doesn't make any difference. If you want some help, I could try to add the 2 bars to the icon (just send me it my PM and I'll see what I can do).

    Android Taskbar

    Android Taskbar

    thanks to longice.. There is only one version atm which is the original taskbar, with a waitcursor to support wm6.1.. Let me know if it works well so that i can add more versions :D

    Added New QVGA (also Here fo no battery) and New WM6.1 version, unfortunately aas far as i know its not possible to skin the signal bars, so theyre going to have ot be white for now, sorry. in Post 3 (thanks to dandnj71 and longice for all there work)

    For Another WM6.1 version and extra's check Here Thanks to Physx


    Remember the Volume icon for most devices will not be skinned! You have to download the zip attached which contains the Volume icon DLL, you will need to use the version you are using (19XX or 20XX) your Volume control and volume icon should be perfect after this.


    internal_percent.bmp
    dark_Percent.bmp
    For These versions of the battery go here, BIG thanks to dandnj71 to all of his work

    added a zip file which contains all the taskbar cabs for people expriencing problems with taskbar
    images etc and battery icon problems (i think)..

    For Original Waitcursors look In Post 3

    QVGA testing only for now, although im sure it should work, just bare with me.. Only one version at the moment :D

    If you are still experiencing a Volume Icon bug after installing the correct version Look at Post 3

    Before installing anything remember to install SDKCERTS.cab from Here Without this the taskbar may not work!

    All the taskbars have the CDMA Fix inside so no probz for CDMA users. I also added A battery percentage version BIG thanks to dandnj71



    Finally, after a lot of looking into, fixed all known issues for all devices.. Now V4/V5 works for all.. If you guys have any suggestions please post a reply, as your ideas only make the taskbar better :)



    WM6.5.X

    WM6.5

    Wait Cursor :D:

    Taskbar Underlay Colors are added if you want black/white taskbar underlay. Download Taskbar Colors.zip and excute cab inside.

    Instructions For A Perfect Installation

    1) Install SDKCerts.cab
    2) Find out if you are using Wm6.5 or WM6.5.x.. To know this just simply look if your start menu button is placed at the top or bottom.
    Top=WM6.5 (stock roms)
    Bottom=WM6.5.X
    3) Choose one of the folowing taskbars that are attached to this post (or extras) which say the version of you choice and the wm6.5 build you are using
    4) Run the cab on your Device
    5) Software Reset
    (If Volume icon missing (most likely))
    6) Find out if what version of htc volume control you are using
    7) Download "Dark Ninja Volume Fix 19XX-20XX"
    8) Run the cab of the version you are using 19XX or 20XX
    9) Software Reset

    -Your done-


    For WM6.5.X Android Taskbar W/VGA With no battery percentage install "Dark Ninja Android Taskbar WM6.5.X V6.cab"
    For WM6.5.X Android Taskbar W/VGA With Battery percentage install "Dark Ninja Android Taskbar WM6.5.X V6 + % BATTERY.cab"
    For Wm6.5 Android Taskbar W/VGA Without Battery percentage install "Dark Ninja Android Taskbar WM6.5 V6.cab"
    For Wm6.5 Android Taskbar W/VGA With battery percentage install "Dark Ninja Android Taskbar WM6.5 V5+ % BATTERY.cab"
    For Both WM6.5 & WM6.5.X Taskbar Background Colours "Taskbar Colors.zip"


    This taskbar replaces the original WM6.5 Taskbar with the one below. Please remember to backup before installingn as i do not want to be responsible for messing up your taskbar.

    The above picture is just a tease, every single icon in the tasbar has been skinned.


    Still To Come
    Making progres on qvga! Hopefully very soon will be the release :)

    Temporary Second Post Soon to Be Filled ;)

    Extras

    -Original Wait Cursor Dlls are in this post attached

    -Also if you are getting a black square on the volume icons try the cab attached..

    -If you are getting htc volume control problems, and causing the hardware buttons to do folly things you can try a few of these suggestions..try doing this:

    First, remember to find out which version of volume control you are using and with them install the fix's in the previous post. If that doesnt work..

    1) Try going to windows directory in total commander
    2) (uninstall 19XX or 20XX volume fix)
    3) Install This
    3) Software reset.

    This method i would say is the best way as it doesnt effect your VolumeControl dll.. It will defo work
