In Windows Mobile 5 since AKU 2.0 and Windows Mobile 6 (Professional/Classic) the battery icon (or the clock) in the title bar on the today screen can be replaced. The default battery shows five different states and was sometimes colored green by some operators. My versions will show ten different charge levels and come in two styles: bars and solid.
UPDATE (2009-01-18): WM6.5 Beta Battery -- Icons are based on the indicator of a WM6.5 beta ROM
UPDATE (2009-10-29): WM6.5 VGA Solid

The wm65*.cab files are for Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional/Classic only. They do not work on earlier versions or WM Standard.
Get them from this post: WM6.5 VGA & WM6 VGA Icons
Soft-reset after installation.
___________________________________
Example and charge levels
Please note, that the same DLL which holds the battery icons also holds the icons for the speed dial and call history lists in the phone application. To get an idea what the different CABs will change, refer to these two tables:
QVGA versions
VGA versions (click thumbnail)
I have to thank and give credit to Jimm98y. From his posts in this thread I learned which file I needed to change:
http://cleanimport.xda/index.php?threads/267321/
The attached CAB files will replace the file that holds the icons. You have to decide which style you like more (bars or solid) and pick the file that fits the resolution of your device (QVGA 240x320 or VGA 480x640). All CABs work on WM6 but do not install the wm6*.cab files on WM5! The wm6bat_*_vga.cab files are in post #29. Soft-reset after installation.
Cool!!
I used in my HTC Touch. It work fine.
Thank you Evil...
Thanks, it works fine on my HP ipaq 6828
It seems to work fine on X51v with A01 WM6. Thank you
Hi,
Works fine on my Artemis!
Thanks!
Cheers
Works excellent on Universal with WM6 build 18508
Great Job.
Can I have both the solid battery & Date Time together?
Meantime also check this out.

Dear CWKJ,
I do not think that this is possible. WM will only display either the battery icon OR the clock at that position. (Can be set via registry at HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock -- as you probably know.)
However, you could set WM to show the battery icon and use a third-party tool to display time and date somewhere else on the top bar. I do not use these tools but I have seen them here and on PPC freeware sites. Should not be hard to find.

A simple registry tweak will display the date and time in the taskbar (date above time). No 3rd party sw needed.
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/SHELL (highlight SHELL). Create a new binary value. Value: TBOpt
Data: 13 00 00 00
Click OK, wait, soft re-set. When device comes back on, the date and time will be displayed in the taskbar.

Nice bars, but on WM6 these cabs also replaced my phone PIN input screens to default WM6 ?
dyna said:

Click to expand...

Yes, that is quite correct. The PIN input pad can be changed by putting bitmaps into the same file where I modified the battery indicator. In my version I left these bitmaps out and Windows will just use the default images in the \Windows directory.
From a quick look these might be the files:
Portrait mode - dialpad_port.gif (background), dlrbtn*_port.gif (buttons)
Landscape mode - dialpad_land.gif (background), dlrbtn*_land.gif (buttons)
I thought it would not matter that much because: How often do people see that PIN pad? Okay, I must admit: If you restart your device or turn off the phone often – then you will see it often.
I might create a new version next month to replace the WM5 speed dial and call history icons with WM6 icons.
What you can do, if you want:
Uninstall the battery modification and restart the device so you have the PIN pad of your ROM back. Then post the file \Windows\phcanOverbmp.dll from your device in this thread along with information about the device and ROM:
- Operator who released the device (e. g. T-Mobile) and
- Retail device name (e. g. MDA Compact III)
- ROM (e. g. cooked PDAVIET or original T-Mobile)
If I like the branding, I will probably create a special branded version, too.
Hehe, yes i know it's only the PIN input screen, guess i'm just being picky
Thanks for you're fast response though.
I attached the phcanOverbmp.dll and it's the standard Touch PIN input screen as found in lot's of Touch styled roms and phone dialers. But since you asked it came from a T-Mobile MDA Compact III with Meschle's Touch 2.0 ROM for Artemis (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329453)
Just wanted to make sure that it is the right version of the file.
So here you go. (File is in the first post.)
Damn didn't know it was next month already
Thanks man for your very fast work!
awesome
att tilt with HTC home screen and your WM6 battery, works great!
I'm not sure if it applies here, but I've had almost any other battery meter cause extra drain on my battery just because it's more detailed and/or polls the battery more often. Maybe something to watch for while testing. HTH
Hi
Will this work for AKU3.3 as well?
I have HTC Trinity and it has WM5 AKU3.3...
Thanks

In short, yes! I'm running WM5 AKU3.3 in my Trinity and this works without a problem.
I liked the battery indicator that comes with QuickMenu as it also has % showing, but as mentioned earlier you have to have either the battery or clock showing and I prefer a large clock on my today screen.
Will report back if I have any excessive battery drain issues though.

sorry about not posting this here at XDA, i still wuv yous guys!! im a frequent at ppcgeeks. Without further ado. Thanks to Bob55 for the transparent icon tip, and Buzzard for the motivation. Without further ado..
NOTE TO ALL USERS
This theme like many others may require some tweaking and tinkering because not all devices and os installs are the same. Wisbar theming is not for the noob at heart, so if youre looking for a quick setup try itask or grumps iphone. These theme require basic knowledge of using wisbar products. Thanks.
Reminder to those having button pressing/execution of apps
When everythings been tweaked and adjusted to your needs, tap/hold lock all items on the page. Tap/hold lock all items on the dock. Exit out of Author mode
Download more icons specific to this theme here, http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=13018
**v0.4 Update "Transparent"**
**v0.4 Update Notes**
- iPhone .tsk updated
- All icons are now transparent .tga
- Added light WA3 theme bundled with the Classic Dark
- Working Clock defaulted in home screen
- Backgrounds now supported with transparent icon sets
- Dock now supported in leopard theme (look out for future dock packages by Torx-Tevelopment)
-----------------------------------
**v0.3 Update Telco Icons added and misc adjustments**
**v0.3 Update Notes**
- Several icons were updated in height, size, and color, telco icons added to "iPhone" folder so delete the original and replace with 0.3. Go into settings/wisbar theme and/or delete the old 0.1 or 0.2, and install and find 0.3
- Icons are custom2(tmobile), custom3(at&t), custom4(sprint). Goto Wisbar Settings/Taskbar and choose your carrier in the "Button Name", Make item visible, and Choose Align LEFT.
- Blue Batt charge icon still exists, it was just fully charged in picture taking.
- Also a new WA3 version has just been released for Nov 13, v3.1.0.3, so make sure you update for the heck of it!
- Enjoy!
-----------------------------------
**v0.2 Update, Landscape added!**
**v0.2 Update Notes**
- Place the "iPhone_Landscape" folder in the "windows/themes/desktop" folder
A new landscape carbon springboard and landscape black background were added to the package of graphics in the Portrait folder. The landscape theme calls on the graphics in the portrait folder.
- For best results, change the phatphinger layout display to "Phat(240x320)+145.wpl". Since adding the landscape it doesnt fit quite right, this layout size looks good in both portrait and fits well in landscape.
-----------------------------------
Please read the readme.txt
Theres very important installation instructions regarding the order of installing the apps, wa3, and wad.
Feel free to throw out a few icon requests if you need some custom icons made for your apps. Ive slimmed it all down to the bare essentials to be space saving and fast loading. Buttons are "tactile" for that feedback feeling, wa3 buttons are tactile as well, and nice loading animation created too. All icons are included as well.
Enjoy and feel free to post bugs or general feedback.

mate is there any way you can make a software instead of using WA3/WAD? WA3/WAD freeze my phone alot, dunt no y!!!
btw new icons
Awsome
Hi Torx,
This by far the best creation for iphone theme for WAD/WA3. This is far more stable than 0.3. and i am a fan of yours. I am on Wizard and this theme is running for last one week. Ofcourse its not full proof. after a day or day & half you need to re-boot the PPC as the memory is too low (this is more so a windows problem), sometime the system becomes very slow but regains the original form after 5-10 min without any apparant reasons, during this time CPU is 57-65% used. The battery drain is more with WAD/WA3 running. This may be taken care of by them.
One issue i want your help is how to back-up the current configiration and file so that if have to reset or update with new ROM then my theme can be restored with minimal efforts and tweaking.
Just wanted to say I have settled on this for my Hermes theme. It is a fantastic piece of software. I am still setting up my phone. Any M$Office icons to go with this?
Some little Problems
Hi there
Great theme, looking really good... BUT ^^
- My Phone SMS Email counter is blocked to 0, and I don't understand I too fix this
- I read on your post (maybe I missunderstood) that the clock in the home screen was suppose to display the real time (I mean on the icon)? If that is the case, then it's not working for me...
Can anybody help me?
PS: HTC TyTN II, WM6, and outlook is my e-mail client
cheers and congrats again ^^

You can set that up yourself. Add the empty clock icon from one of the themes, add custom text %T12% or %T24% (your choice) and you will have a working clock...
I notice the volume, battery and telco icons are not transparent when I try to change the background color. Can you make them transparent?
PS: this is e best iphone skin i have been searching for so long! thx!
EDIT: Figured it out, needed a reinstall of WAD
Is there a VGA iPhone theme anywhere?
I have looked everywhere...i think... but no success....
PLEASE!!!....tell me I did not look anywhere....
You can try Winterface by VITO software:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QNQURO9C
It's an iPhone-like interface that works with VGA resolutions.
Carrier Icon
If anybody wants it, I've got a custom Verizon icon for the taskbar in Torx's WAD/WA3 theme. I've also extracted some other icons if needed.

Creating iPhone icons
I was hoping that someone could give me some guidance please on using the .psd templates for creating my own icons for Torx iPhone skin?
As an example of what I have done: I am using Gimp but am somewhat a novice user. I have loaded the icon for eWallet as one layer and overlaid the blank_template.psd file on top. This looks nearly correct and I get the lovely shading of the template over the top of the original icon but does not quite mask out the Torx button shape as the template would suggest. Instead each corner still has some grey pixels.
I save the image as a .png file then convert it to a .tga with AlphaConv.exe.
Loading the .tga file into WAD works fine but I still see the grey pixels in the corners so it is not a "clean" icon image. So near yet so far...
Does anyone have ideas of what else I need to do?

cmEX absolute TOUCH - ENGLISH
CE OS 5.2.21109 - BUILD 21109.1.6.0
--------------------------------------------
Description
This ROM is basically identical with my other ROM, but comes with Manila3D and a workaround for landscape mode with Manila. The idea for the workaround originally came from mbarvian here, for QVGA devices running Manila2D. First I simply wanted to adapt this for TF3D and WVGA, but since there are some differences to Manila2D I had to change some other things too - which is a good thing. Because of the changes that were necessary, this version is fully compatible with the X1-Panels and is MUCH faster than the original workaround using rltoday only.
So how does it work?
Mortscript is running in background and checking for the landscape switch. If the screen is rotated, secondtoday is brought forward as the active window (running all the time with rltoday as plugin) and shows the landscape few known from the Touch Pro. When changing back to portrait mode, secondtoday is hidden again. Secondtoday won't show up in the default Taskmanager.

*gasp* a landcape workaround! Oh my gawd! Where is the darn download link!?
Also, will you be sharing the workaround as a seperate CAB?
There are several ROM's that use TF3D as well as standalone CABs that would greatly benefit from this.
A question that does come to mind - isn't it possible to run it on top of TF3D instead of actually disabling TF3D?
By the looks of it a separate application is executed. Does it use the skin files as found in the windows folder, from TF3D?
Another thing that I can't really figure out; what is the major difference between this ROM and for instance Itje's touch Experience?
Ofcourse you each add different progs and perhaps some tweaks, but aren't they - in essence - alike?
Downloadlinks coming soon.
Well, the main difference at the moment is - as far as I can see - I am using a newer SYS and XIP version than itje is. Of course that might change as he releases new versions.
Seperate CAB will be provided.
Very promising. Great work on adapting mbarvian's work.
What I would like to know as well, did you integrate any known-to-work performance fixes? For instance tnyttn's SD booster, or perhaps some new drivers?
Finally, UC support? ^^
No, I didn't include any "perdormance fixes" as I'm not convinced it makes any difference and I'm quite happy with the performance.
I did include UC, but didn't set up a config.txt myself to test it. However - I don't see why it shouldn't work.

Alright. As far as performance fixes go; it seems very logical to me that increasing some allocated memory here and there can speed up the device. But Xperiatweak can do that, so that aside. tnyynt's SD TuneUP has been proven useful though, increasing SD read from 2mb to ~18mb per second.
I must say i'm quite excited!!! Quick question though. Does this build include the Touch HD Volume control?
Well, I did include some tweaks which have proven useful, like changing file system cache, filter size and glyph size. SDTune etc. can easily be installed by CAB.

Yes, it does.
Great, I'll be waiting for the release! After reading into the manila landscape fix a bit, I understand it basically turns off touchflow and then starts a modified touchflow that only shows the landscape menu. Upon going back into portrait mode, the other way around.
It still leaves one question unanswered though, does it use the standard manila blackstone landscape skin? If so, I'm going to include that in the skin I'm making! (already have the skin files)
No, thats not exactly the way it is working.
When switching to landscape, the TouchFlo3D todayplugin is turned off and rltoday is turned on. So, if you want to change the skin, you have to edit the png's of the rltoday skin.
chalid said:
Yes, it does.

Click to collapse
I'm not sure if you have experienced this but when i use the volume control from the touch hd i can't adjust the volume during a call. Like if you are using speaker phone.
Congrats Chalid, this is amazingly promissing
Congrats
Can't wait to test
Just came across an annoying bug. Don't know why this occurs now, but when switching to landscape mode, the creen is redrawn to portrait. Don't know why this didn't happen before and will figure this out later today. Have ask for your patience on this to hopefully solve this.
Okay guys, looking good. Had to change the way the script works and use secondtoday instead of rltoday alone. One big gain from this workaround is, that manila doesn't need to be reloaded, because it always stays activated. This means, the whole process is nearly as fast as with the original Manila3D on Touch Pro.
Will release the ROM later today. First have to wrap this up properly.
is the ROM up. the link doesnt seem to be working
Nope its not up yet. But we are all anxiously waiting....
Really nice, i think lots of ppl want to try this. Nice to you have fixed the landscape issue!

Mirror PLEASE
Someone can upload it elsewhere (none FTP).
I can't acces FTP on my work.
THANKS
Very responsive and fast ROM from what I can see, accessing various screens and menus.
I've always liked smaller icons and this one has just the right size to my liking.
Will play around some more to get a better feel and report.

I give it a try,
Looks ok, one litle thing: the scrollbars dont seem ok. i wanted to change my ringtones and noticed the scrollbar "thing". It seems that there is something on the top and the bottom but cant scroll fully down (i will make a pic if necesary)
more feedback is comming
Tipp: include a taskbaricon-set and de 1% batery-cab (would be amazing when this will bi in your next rom )
EDIT:
Just wanted to set up my exchange connection over Mobile device center and got error 0x85020006 - Cannot connect with current connection settings.
i was able to set up the exchange settings on the phone and then the error disapeard (in case you have the same error)
now it works like a charm.
EDIT-2:
Bug?
after every restart i have to trun on data connection manually (needed for Exchange sync)
Button 3G (Change to Auto mode) don't work (no interaction possible)
except of these litle things the rom is top and exactly what ive looking for. (very fast and stable)
the 1% battery cab usually drains a little more battery...it's funny but that's it... so I'm happy to NOT have it in your rom...
I don't see any wifi sharing app in the Comm Manager... like CM internet sharing app...
Did you consider to cook in?
ok, no problem without this cab (1% Battery). I can add it manualy
what about including smartlock, so we can choose the new lockscreen from WiMo 6.5?

Very nice concept!
But again will it be available for qvga?
Only WVGA !
LoL Lesscro,
you are working on this project AND the WP7 skin for WAD?!?!?!?
You are amazing!
I thought I had time enough during the day to do my own thing, but you will beat them all I guess.... ;-)
Anyhow, I still use WM6.1 so I can't run this one...
Cheers,
Arnold
LessCro, I have one question....
why did you not develop the WP7 theme for your own UI?
I mean..it would have made a lot of sense ot promote it....
Well, regardless, nice work!
Error when starting up FSlide
Lesscro,
Fantastic work.
I am getting an error when starting FSlide. I am not sure why...
Update: Had to change my Locale to get it to work.

Seems to be worked better on Snapdragon device...
You are our hero Lesscro!! keep it up!!
a little writing on your ui, http://www.techz.in/lesscros-fslide-potent-ui-has-potential/
Today plugin?
Is this a Today plugin or an .exe?
Awesome.....easily one of the best interfaces.
Missing: SMS icon (HTC Messages).
Can you make it a lighter (not heavy) version? Right now transition on the ATT Pure / TD2 is bit slow & not clean. A lighter graphic should resolve it.
This UI is not a today plugin...
requirment precise : WVGA and works smothhrer with Snapdragon device...
On Slow CPU, it seems to be a little bit lagging...
All feedback are checked and added on To do list...
Very nice. Will give it a go. Keep it up man!

Imagine this...if you make it lightweight, how much faster and cleaner it will run on Snapdragon devices. Go for it man!

I get this message after installing the beta 3 on WM 6.5 TG01. Anyone knows how to fix this?
Hello lads,
long time since last update in my LBFAR ROM, which was probably the fastest one out here containing Manila. Since then, I have been few months on the ROM, then started playing with Sense 2.5. But still, I wasn't satisfied. So I have made compromise - TF3D from mine ROM but new, COM5 build.
This ROM includes basic software as comm manager, Internet Explorer, Office Mobile, Adobe Reader etc. But all other advanced software is deleted!
Now let's present it's graphical part:
Images are no longer valid, they will be updated during today/tomorrow, when I get a chance to make them!

Pretty cool huh?
This BETA version runs on 23569 build. You have plenty of RAM (~114MB) and ROM (~333MB) after first boot. Also it is SUPERFAST so enjoy .
To hide Start & Done buttons on softkeybar, install cab in this post![/B]
ON FIRST BOOT, WHEN IT GETS "STUCK" on customization, click to the TOP RIGHT CORNER, where OK used to be on WM6.5!
Download:
MultiUpload (rapidshare, megaupload, hotfile, ...)
I DELETED STOCK WM6.5 Lockscreen! It eats A LOT OF MEMORY!
Changelog
BETA_2 -> LFAR X 1.1:
Deleted Notification Enhancement to make work input box when popping up about new wifi's
Fixed some issues, like Bluetooth A2DP, ...
Updates to few packages
Upgraded graphics (unified)
Deleted blue taskbar skin, it wasn't fitting, kept normal Windows stock one (you can install your own)
Some minor Manila internal changes in scripts, like when going through tabs, there is now black background below everything, largered icons, changed few LUAC scripts to make it run a bit faster
Flicking screen when changing windows now happens A LOT LESS! It was due old not-WM655 compatible notification enhancement probably.
BETA_FIXED -> BETA 2:
Inserted MyPhone (system -> myphone)
Inserted Marketplace (system -> marketplace)
Reverted to older rilphone, without "2 bar bug"
Enabled program tab in Manila in default
Enabled Start & Done keys on softkeybar on default
Updated SYS to 23569 (probably EOD)
Updated XIP to 23568 (probably EOD)
BETA -> BETA_FIXED:
Fixed comm manager
Fixed missing icon for calculator in Start Menu (now inside office -> calculator)
Pagepool decreased from 18MB to 16MB (no perfomance change)
Some overall fixes, speedup a bit
Added new StartMenu Gesture - Click HERE for more info
Downloading... will report back later
I`ll try it.....
Looks interesting.......
uploading now will test today and let you know. looks great, very light just how I like it!
loved your idea man...am gonna give it a go(downloadin now)...Thanks man...jus a query have u any plans of releasin sense 2.1 on com 5?
Definitely not, Sense is slow on our devices (mostly 2.5, 2.1 is a bit better but it is still slow compared to this).
I forgot to mention..
ON FIRST BOOT, WHEN IT GETS "STUCK" on cusstomization, click to the TOP RIGHT CORNER, where OK used to be on WM6.5!
good work man looks great im gonna try it whenver im free, nice rom
ok lads, I'm sorry, I included wrong version of Comm Manager and I can't put there new one via cab, because it reaches out of permissions, I will have to cook new ROM.
I will update base to 2.08 or 2.10 (partially), hoping for some better drivers anyway .
I just notice that in comm manager are two phone settings one for GSM one for CDMA, but both are off, and you cannot turn them on.
ROM is fast, I just missing the close button on the top.
There won't be close button on top, it can be enabled on bottom of the screen (next to the right softkey), that's one of the main deals of WM6.5.5
// Wait till tomorrow, I'm preparing small StartMenu update with cool feature (that should have MS integrated too).
OK lads, finally fixed version, check 1st post for download.
And the "secret" feature... Let me publish it into WinMo software with details. But try in StartMenu folder (eg office or phone or settings) swype from left to right .

Haw to enable this close button.
And second question haw to close (not minim.) programs?
I'm totally new to 6.5.5
Close button enable in:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\BubbleTiles
find dword HardwareDoneKeyEnable and delete it
And close only via task manager. But don't worry, there is no need to close them, there is PLENTY of memory available. I had running both Opera 9.5 and 10, TomTom navigator, Slick, Facebook, file explorer, caculator and wmwifirouter at once without single issue
Thanks man for such an awsome rom camr back to com 5 after such a long time and am lovin it...seems like bottom bar has changed alot...
jus a few queries
how can i get 4 rows in start menu rather than a straight single default 1?
lovin the speed in it...lets hope its stable aswell(ive come from jackos 1.3 smartmove that thing never crashed on me in 1 month)
this 1 seems like a keeper so far...
jus in my 1st hr with your rom
My next question,
I don't know if this is related with your ROM or because I using RhodiumKbdControl_GSM.
After few minutes I can't acces menu start from hardware key. (Nothing happend when I pressing Windows key)
Thank you
Double post
@iris_aim
Search on forums for start menu cpr files, I first didn't like this too. But I gave it try and I loved it. So I made it myself again, but with my own numbers and mostly with Segoe font from WP7 and the gesture for going back .
@MisiuKP
Anything that messes with HW buttons is potencionally dangerous, I should have made simple app, that would ask on first boot, if you want to hide Start and OK buttons :X. I like it this way, since I have both Start and Back keys on front.
OK,
Thank you, I found that in registry, and now I have both ok/close and start menu on screen - I personally like this better.
Thank you for owsom ROM!!!
