All,
This is my first attempt as modding a theme.. I think I did a good job..
I took the PDVista PocketCM theme with PD's permission and modded the graphics. I also got help from DvTonder to correct the mail icon issue with the newer version of PocketCM.
This will work with PocketCM .21 - .23
This looks just like the HTC Diamond, background, pop up icons on the bottom, etc..
If someone wants to do the graphics over, be my guest.. I would love to play more but don’t have the time.. I spend like a week and change to get things where they are now..
Graphics that need to be done over:
Dial pad needs to be done in gloss black
Dial pad "pressed" buttons need to be done over in gloss black
Menu "pressed" buttons need to be done over with the fancy black diamond theme icon (I included it in the zip).
The icons on the main contact menu need to be done over in gloss black.
This theme has a Greatbal Diamond Look.
Eazy
great work thanks you
guess nobody was really interested..
Wooooooooooooo!
theme now switched!!!!!!!!!!!!!!this gets better and better!
PocketCM
Where can I download the standalone version of PocketCM?
I tried using the search on here but it sucks. It just brings up a bunch of threads for themes.
Thanks!

What do you mean, lol. Hush your mouth, lol. Many are interested. Your theme inspired me to use pocketcm all over again, lol. Thanks and look forward to more of your work.
Edit: I noticed your theme is a large one, almost a 1mb. Which I imagine the larger the file (theme) the slower it starts up. Nice theme though.
It looks sweet. The only thing that I don't like about it is that I can't see the phone numbers on the contact screen without scrolling down to it.
A little bit too dark for my taste, as I was using a diamond theme but with white background, but since this one doesn't have the bugs my previous one had I'm changing now, thank you and good work
Wow! Just downloaded pocketcm and your theme rocks! I'm a noob.... anyway to incorporate the text messaging from pocketcm into the standard texting from spb shell using one of the themes people have posted... (such as diamond theme?)
this looks good
will try it once i reinstall pocketcm --- testing icontact right now - and i dont like it
o nooooooooooooooooooooo!
skin turns aqua blue in letter spaces between contacts.and the menu to close and pick options never fully rises. now i'm sickbest skin for this app i seen yet.
What can I say.... EXCELLENT.
Hello,
I just installed it on htc Touch and the color of the font is BLACK for all contacts. So, I can not see any. The color needs to be set to WHITE. Thanks.
looks nice, thanks man, working on my prophet

I use it on my Mogul and it seems to be fine. It's not so bad on startup and I found that it only uses up about 2 mbs of memory.

Honestly, i got tired of reading the whole text message and could not figure out how to disable the auto show phone number with contacts option and make it come up when you select it in the options. so i just made it black, i can change it and upload two diff copies for you guys. If someone can look at the code and tell me what the option is to give the control back to the options "show contacts with phone number" i will change it.

Thanks.. I will prob finish up the graphics since you all like it.. You may want to try a soft reset... I have tested this on my Mogul only.. I can change the highlighted colors if you really want me to.. but it makes it easy to see.. What about two shades of blue??
hi,
one problem i have and not sure if other has the same. In the option i check on "contact without phone" but it still show phone number. I would like to only show just the name.
I have AT&T Tilt
Thanks
problem with menu that comes up from holding down the far right button. doesnt come up all the way. anyone else have this problem? i would also prefer highlighting that menu in a different color than hot pink. excellent job overall.
Can you change the font for the phone numbers to be white instead of black? Then it would be perfect

this is what i was trying to decribe.i have same problem.also i guess the letter bars between the contacts is supposed to be that aqua blue.i'd like to see that in another color.
All functioning and even the screen orientation icons make sense now.

Realize weather icons from oscarbum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3032867&postcount=24
[UPDATE] Added neon weather icons to neon.zip file (adapted from original Vito icons)
[UPDATE] See post #59 for extra Neon icons in a dll file. They can be used by calling them in a .lnk file as described elsewhere in this forum.
Briefly, you make a txt file and the syntax would be, for instance:
81#"\Storage Card\Program Files\CorePlayer\player.exe"?\Storage Card\My_icons.dll,-20
where the number 20 is the icon index in the dll file. I've also attached in post #59 a png file showing the icon index number for all of the icons in the dll file.
Best of luck
Great, thank you!
That's funny. I've been working on a new theme for WAD2 using this set and it didn't occur to me to use it for WF. Nice work.
Amazing Work! Thanks
For me, THE best skin for winterface... great job, and thanks for sharing
Posted the various links for WF themes here on xda-devs...
...at blog.iwindowsmobile.com
and the moderators keep removing them.
I wonder why :-/
i think they still see skinning as hacking. but then what do they expect if they don't offer alternative themes themselves? even though the software is pretty good, many people won't buy it because of the oppressive look of the UI.
people want a constant theme running through their whole device and application UI, or they want to be able to tweak things to their satisfaction
*more people will buy the software*
hope someone from Vito reads this.
i love it man vito/iwindows should allow open skins for this it makes it more attractive...and i was think (maybe its too ipone-ish but) they should lock the bottom bar and allow us to put our most used apps/settings/contax etc there just a thought but im addin this new skin to the collection
Great! Thanx friend!
thanks for all. I like it. I love the VITO Interface but now it has a very very good look and beautiful colors...
Thanks a lot...
Just for a laugh...

Nice, thanks dave
If you ever decide to do another Winterface theme...
Here's some things I've found that might save you some time....
1. Don't do a calendar icon. Winterface replaces it with the background icon in the black file and puts the date on it.
2. Don't do a clock icon. Same reason.
3. Also, the weather icon in the icons file is no longer used. It pulls the info from the weather icons.bmp.
4. On my phone anyway, Winterface doesn't use the calculator icon. Kind of an odd glitch.
5. I don't use bluetooth, so I don't know for sure, but unless the plain bluetooth icon opens bluetooth explorer, doing all three icons is pointless too.
6. This next point actually adds time, but I noticed you did not do anything with the top row contact icon. It is skinnable, you just need to make sure you do EXACTLY the same thing to the contact icon in black.bmp.
Great job, as always. I hope to be back working on more icons soon as well once I finished my Blackberry Bold theme for WAD2.
Another theme
Here's one I threw together this morning. (Are we nearing the point of simply having a Winterface theme thread?)
I don't know if I've posted the weather icons before but it goes well with the realize theme.

1. Don't do a calendar icon. Winterface replaces it with the background icon in the black file and puts the date on it.
Although I think it does use this icon if your default calendar app is not the standard Windows one. One way of working is to have your appointments shown on S2U2 as you unlock and use a better calendar such as Thumbcal as standard
2. Don't do a clock icon. Same reason.
3. Also, the weather icon in the icons file is no longer used. It pulls the info from the weather icons.bmp.
That's another ton of work I have to do :-(
4. On my phone anyway, Winterface doesn't use the calculator icon. Kind of an odd glitch.
Mine neither, but I figured that's because I dono't use the standard calculator
5. I don't use bluetooth, so I don't know for sure, but unless the plain bluetooth icon opens bluetooth explorer, doing all three icons is pointless too.
Yes, the plain one opens Bluetooth settings
6. This next point actually adds time, but I noticed you did not do anything with the top row contact icon. It is skinnable, you just need to make sure you do EXACTLY the same thing to the contact icon in black.bmp.
I thought the very same thing this morning. My upcoming theme will change this icon as well
Great job, as always. I hope to be back working on more icons soon as well once I finished my Blackberry Bold theme for WAD2.

Should be able to post another here in a day or so, depending on whether I take on the buttons and the weather icons as well!
Good work and thanks for the tips
well i notice the slide to unlock image (lock) is messed up. also, there are pink dots on bottom left and right of bluetooth icon.
other than that they're amazing. thanks for the icons.
we are also waiting your last theme with realize icons,oscarbum.
thank you both.
is anyone else having this issue.. it's also noticed when i move icons around and when one icon goes over another, it has parts of the icon that is transparent and that's how the lock looks when it appears. this is vga supported, right? i have touch pro.
Yes, I think that's the messed up lock icon that was mentioned
on another note though, I can' get the contact pictures to work if I change any of the contact icons as you said oscarbum.
I've tried changing the two in black.bmp and the one in icons.bmp in every combination and it doesn't work.
The pictures need to work in three places in the theme:
When you view you contacts ready to dial
When you select the contact to bring up details
When you add a contact.
There is no combination of changed icons (all identical) that works.
All credit goes to Kalagas.
I only ported some of icons from original Milestone theme and mixed some of sense icon. Enjoy!
To get screen like shown in first picture, check the following menu option:
Settings->CyanogenMod settings->Input Settings->Phone and Messaging
Get modded LauncherPro from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=889036
Changes:
1. Browser tweaked for more icons.
2. Added some more tweaked apps.
3. Battery icon changed to BlueBattery.
Guys, can I have some feedback?
Your pictures really don't do it justice.
I thought it looked pretty awful from the pics but actually looks pretty good in the flesh. I like all blue icons, not a huge fan of the data icon though. I really like the menu themeing, xda app looks much better and the color icons when you push menu in homescreen are a good touch.
Why didn't you theme the new market blue? I don't like the buttons on the dialer either, doesn't look right with numbers but no buttons. Browser looks really smart I'm blue. Circular battery mod would have been good too

Find blue market (not modded by me) in first post. For phone I will post link in a day or two.
How do I apply this theme? I tried using metamorph to do it and it didnt work? Do i just place it on the sd card and flash it like a normal rom? Im really confused and i cant find any help anywhere. The theme looks sick, but i cant figure it out...

Yes, you need to flash it like a normal ROM. By looking at screen shots (I am lazy to post several screen shots) it may look sick but believe me it is fantastic from inside.
This CWM flashable zip file will change the color theming and animations of Fusion (KH3). I took out the purple in the standard Fusion theme, made some changes, and here you have Fusonic.
Version changes listed in the 2nd post.
This theme was made with Fusion V files. Others in the thread have installed it on Fusion VI with no problem.
I have not tested on any other ROMs so I have no idea what the results will be. Any KH3 ROM (6 toggle pulldown) should work.
By downloading you release me from any and all liability for any shock and awe you may or may not receive before during, or after the flash. plus anything else.
Fusonic 1.5 Theme
Stock Fusion Theme Revert
Reboot into Recovery - Install .zip. Reboot. Enjoy!
Thanks to Johnsondr80 and ruger94 for all the hard work on Fusion!

Very nice. I much prefer the blue to the purple. A couple of places you missed though... In the browser, go to Google and click on the Settings link at the bottom. All of the radio buttons on that page are still purple. I believe this is linked to the theme. Also, in Launcher (not TW), the phone icon is still purple.
Overall, great job!

Yep - I left the radio buttons purple - liked it better than green and it resembles the icon for the data toggle in the pulldown. I don't use the regular Launcher, so I didn't do any edits to it.
Glad you like it!

Updated the OP with v 1.2...
Replaced the stock Launcher you use - it is from Fusion IV and has a SGSII look.
Hmmmm.. Do you know if there's a way to set it up with 7 home screens instead of 5, and is there a way to get rid of the messaging icon on the dock and put the browser there. If not, I think I preferred the one that was in there before.
A suggestion: on the notification pulldown, the text in the "Ongoing" section is black on dark grey background. For example, when a download is going, it's really hard to read. Even worse, I run Lookout on my phone and on that section of the pulldown Lookout shows status. The text for the status is the same grey as the background.

Since I use TW 4 Launcher - I really don't want to spend much time theming the stock one. If you want to use the stock Launcher from Fusion V - just pull Launcher2.apk out of the Fusion V stock revert file and drop it in /system/app on your phone with Root Explorer or something similar.
Also - Take a look at GO Launcher on the Market - I like it better than stock.
Thanks
Thanks, I was about to give up on Fusion V and load another ROM due to the constant inability to read items on the screen. It was very frustrating default theme and your Fusonic makes it a usable phone again.

Updated OP with v 1.3 and 1.3A.
Radio buttons are green, and the background behind the text in the pulldown is white!
i spent 4 days trying to find that little line under the contacts in the dialer (sob)
finally found it then........
forgot.
ohh well.....
I can't make roms (yet), so I'm gonna start theming. That being said, what apps/icons do you want themed? I figure we can get a nice little list going here, so anyone else who wants to theme can make use of it as well. Obviously, stock apps will be themed; what we need here is the apps from the market or other sources that you want to match with everything else. Let me know!
I would love a new icon for Go SMS Pro. I like the app a lot more than the stock messenger, but don't like the way it clashes with my other icon images. If I could get a cooler icon, that would be awesome, even if it looks like the stock messaging up but maybe in a dark blue or black color. =)

If you have a launcher other than stock you can change it to anything you want w/o theming the whole apk. Plus gosms updates weekly and would be quite the pain in the long run if the apk were themed...

I already use a widget to display apps (which includes go sms) on my main desktop a certain way, so programs like better cut pro don't work. Unless I can somehow paste the shortcut app from better cut pro, which is essentially a widget, inside another widget, it doesn't work for me.
Thanks anyway.
