No sorry that would mean i would have to redo all graphics and coding, Just enjoy and maybe I will release something black someday.
(suggestion from Alfonso and me: "open up all png's in ms paint and change mode to b/w or just wear heavy sunglasses, they do miracles in situations like these)

Hi philocritus!

Thanks!!

I'm going to try it now!
(and if u want any experiences or comments in spanish tell me ) (for Apbilbo)

bro i just look @ your work since the minimal dialer to see how good you make apps look.this maybe the wrong place but my phone is almost perfect.i'd just like to throw out there for you to please skin the calculator name it minimal something lolthe moguls calculator is so ugly i just use phatpad and add **** up by stylus and paper lol. GOOD JOB HERE!. i just suggest this cause your dialer is the best!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything works in my HTC touch. The only thing is not is the city of the today page: It shows "Amststerdam"
also I can't enter to the config page. Maybe is the same problem I had with the Touchflo3d config.xml file....

You could open the config.xml and search for hometown or amsterdam and change the amsterdam to your town.
Did you try to open the config throug the settings page or through throttleconfig?
After chaging you have to reload the theme.
Good luck!

Ok! Now I have the city changed.
I have tried to enter from both ways. I had this same problem with Touchf3d, and it solved a new config.xml that they posted. I think they were some troubles with the today plugins, so instead of having a list of plugins I had a field to write in the plugin.

oh....my.....God
This is the sexiest eye candy of a Today I have ever seen.

Woops, didn't realize I made a double post.
Hey Paul, the Windows Seven.bmp that you provided is rather...well, there are no gradients, but rather horizontal lines. This is also the case with the sphere in the bottom-middle.
Do you have one thats possibly a true gradient? Maybe this was designed for VGA devices? Also, is it possible to change the sensitivity for this plug in?
Again, these are the best graphics I've seen, and thanks so much for your efforts.

Lol, that was good one, made me laugh pretty good . Anyways, here it is golucky.
edit: do you think it's possible to upload the first image (htc in green) as a .tsk? Thanks.

I like what you have done, but could you supply some instructions on how to get everything setup? Also what is Operator Personalizer?

Could you please upload to another server because Megaupload is totally useless?

for anyone who is having trouble with this, please see this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2239209&postcount=1245

could you please update your post with
wich programs is what and how to install
some programs are a bit strange and have no cab or something

OK to answer the questions accordingly
Kareem9nba - Glad you pointed it out.. USE THESE INSTEAD OF THE ONES IN THE S2U2 FILE
-----> HTC tsk. files:
2 THINGS
1. BEFORE U DO ANY OF THIS CONNECT UR PHONE VIA ACTIVE SYNC
2. I WILL NOT SAY UNZIP OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.. THATS JUST COMMON SENSE
Aaron78
all the files come with a "read-me", its fairly simple, but ill break it down :
1. Install SPB MS2.1
2. via active sync go program files > SPB Mobile Shell and replace all EXACT files with the files located in the "HTC Diamond MS2.1" ( the folder titled "file" which was extracted from that zip, and replace the font files as well.
3. Soft Reset..after you soft reset your today screen should look like the pics ive posted.
4. Reconnect via active sync
5. Install S2U2 .. its a .cab file so its a quick drag and drop
6. In the "Diamond Theme For S2U2" read the "read me" file.. its that simple. BUT instead of using the 2 wallpapers in there.. use the 2 ive attached above.
7. Soft Reset..after you soft reset your initial screen should look like the pics ive posted.
8. Reconnect via active sync
9. Install Diamond Dialer. its a .cab file so its a quick drag and drop
10. Soft Reset
11. Reconnect via active sync
12. Try to make a phone call, your dialer should look pretty dope..lol
13. Install SPB Weather
14. Take the files from the Media Player folder ive given you and go ( via active Sync ) Program Files > Windows Media Player > and drop the folder in there
15. Use open up ur media player, and go menu > options > skin and choose the one titled portrait, then the onle titled landscape, you should be good to go from that point
16. Install SPB Watcher. its a .cab file so once again, its a simple drag and drop via active sync
17. Soft Reset, by this point your phone should look exactly like what the pics above show.. if not.. re-read my instructions.
On To The Bonus Apps
18. Install Personalizer. Again, its a .cab file so u can drag and drop via active sync.
19. Install Thumb Calender.. follow the link posted above its already been posted.
20. Firefox is optional. I like it the best, so thats what i use.
And thats all folks.. any questions.. as i mentioned if its not listed just ask.. ill see what i can do for u!

Operator Personalizer changes the name of ur Service Provider on ur ppc
ex: i have At&t but with the personalizer ive changed it too "The Evil Genius!"
so now its reads as if my service provider is The Evil Genius.. its a pretty cool app.

Great, well i just tried to put it as my today screen, but when i set it, it's WAY lighter than the original. You can barely see the HTC in green. Can you just upload the .tsk as an attatchment? That'd be great--thanks.

Problem is that constantly all the slots assigned to Greece are in use and it asks me to download the Megaupload toolbar, which I don't want. Maybe rapidshare or Badongo.com...
Thanks in advance.....

Here is an RS mirror.

Thanks a lot!!!

here u go.. http://rapidshare.com/files/122942693/Diamond_HTC.tsk.html

First off, I just want to say that this theme looks great. However, I'm having a little bit of trouble getting it to work, and I'm not sure why. I suspect it has to do with my ROM, which is DCS WM6.1 V1.7.
I've installed and used themes before (though never on this ROM), without any problems, but here's what I'm running into:
I install SPB, copy over the Diamond files, soft reset (thanks for those clear directions by the way) and... nothing happens at all. My home screen looks just like normal.
Under Today --> Themes, I only have DCS, DCSv2 and Windows Default listed.
Any help anyone could offer would be immensely appreciated. Thanks

to be honest over on other sites ive heard that some ROMS dont really agree with SPB MS2. and in a situation like this i really wouldnt know what to do.. im sorry i cant help u here.. but ill do some searching myself to see what i can come across

Thanks man, I really appreciate it a lot. I too will do some looking around, but in the meantime, may I ask what ROM you're running?

not a problem..if i find anything ill give u a shout!
but uh...im using my stock rom and stock radio..whatever tweaks ive done have been strickly on the exterior end.. i havent really messed with the "guts", so to speak of my device. i mean minor tweaks using kaiser tweak.. but nothing too extreme

SMS GPS (sms your gps location)

Hey cats, a rom i had included the GPS Location program . kinda neat . but i tried installing it on other roms, but due to it being unsigned it didn't work. and i dunno, i just wanted one like this. the contact list uses your touchflo too . so it's easy to navigate . so i made this ...
Version 2 (Requires .net 2CF)
I didn't want to hook into SMS as a service and keep this app running. So to display someone elses cordinates, you can either click on the google link in the SMS, or copy and paste the cordinates into the App's Search tab. I embedded a http request to the google image server to display the location. Also, if you want to enter a number, just click "SEND SMS" without selecting a contact.
anyway here it is...

Hi, I like that ... a lot ... very handy if you're trying to meet up with your mate.
I don't know if your text includes it, but what about sending a link to google maps, not the mobile version as not everyone has it installed. I wrote a program a few months ago and edited and sent the link below as it works great in the TyTN.
http://m.reimers.dk/?coords=37.4249000549316,-122.007400512695
Also what about a manual phone number entry box.
Get those 2 updates done and it's definately getting a privaledged button on my Home screen shortcuts!!

thanx man . that's exactly why i wrote it . i was heading to a pub the other night.. my friend's asking where it was and he's got an iphone so i was thinking how great it'd be to fire off sms cords in a lightweight app .. no strings attached . now i can, and have!
great to tell your GF how far away you are from picking her up too .. they love that . gives them time to do their hair and pick out sexy undies (hopefully the latter)
i'll make the change for u to add your own number . no problem .. but i do have a question regarding your google map page . it's nice . i'm thinking i can do that in the app itself . did you use an api in your aspx? i'm not familiar with the googly map queries . but i'm curios how you extracted just the image or was it done by a http request and parsing the img src?

Sorry mate, I just found it on the web, it looked optimised for a mobiles screen and it worked great. How it works, no idea!!! I suggest just editing the lat/long with your detail and firing it off do the end user in the SMS. All the other internet maps I looked at were full of advertisments and looked awful.... it took days to find that one!! Hope he never turns it off.

I'm currently trying to get my GPS logged on so I can try out the map link.

I'm having major problems with the SMS map links ... It'll only ever open half the page either on WIFI or UMTS (Picture on left). BUT if you change the link to "http://m.reimers.dk/?coords=37.42490, 2.007400512695" you get the google map, without all the adverts AND Nav buttons (picture on right).
To
Last suggestion .... promise .... Can you put a zoom function in the Map tab as well???

my only concern with using your http://m.reimers.dk server is how long it will exist for? how reliable is it? i don't want my app to stop working because your server went down. let me know

I guess it's the risk you have to take if you want your application to work the best it possibly can.
I've been using it for 6 months with no problems.
Go on ..... you know you want to!!

Another SMS bug in Manila 3D!

Hey, before you start reading my oncoming wall of text, please read this: THIS IS NOT ABOUT EVERY THIRD SMS DISAPPEARING.
With that out of the way, I'll post my problem. See, I really love TouchFlo and it makes me wanting to use my phone more, so it's great to see so many roms incorporating this. itje's roms are praised all over the Xperia part of the forums and I like his roms as much as they do - there's just one problem. You know the sms program cooked into itje's TouchIT roms? The one with a seperate "Send" button and a black framed text entry box? Well, this text entry box won't stay on the button, right over the Windows Mobile softkeys, like it should. Instead, it floats about half an inch up from there, overlapping about 3 of the latest text messages in the conversation. This is really annoying, and makes me stick with the stock rom.
I noticed that somewhere in the TouchIT-threads someone also had this problem, and tried to solve it. After much searching I still can't find it, and belive me - I've searched like a freakin' narcotics dog.
My question is: Is there a way to delete this program and map the sms tab to open Windows Mobile sms? Or possibly a fix?
It's a shame some of us with this bug (I assume I'm not the only one) aren't able to enjoy all the great TouchFlo roms here because of this bug when maybe there's an easy fix. Since all the threads I've started before this one has been ignored, I hope this problem will get some attention anyways. I'm happy to test possible fixes, I'm used to re-flashing my X1 once a day. I don't think I'll come up with a fix myself since I don't have the knowledge of WinMo (yet!).
Regards
/Felix

yeah, i have the same prob. i actually like windows sms better, when u go threw MESSAGES > ALL MESSAGES > anyone.
i would like to know a fix too.

HOW MANY TIMES DOES IT NEED TO BE REPEATED
if it was any lower it would conflict with the slide out tab in landscape the one that has the icons.
this is not a bug, it looks like it's how HTC designed it..
I've answered this before (as have other people) did it really need another new thread?
If you really believe this is just a part of Itjes roms then search the forum, loads of people on different devices have exactly the same thing..
go get a blackboard and repeat after me..
It's not a bug
100000 times...
then when you've finished you might actually bother pressing Allmessages instead of Startnew thread on the forum..

Hmm, I really tried to find a solution (or in this case, answer) but so what? This thread dies out soon, and a mod is free to delete it if it's in the way of more important stuff. Sheesh, it's like everyone on the internet is obliged to have their period when a question instead of an answer comes up. This is merely a bug report and you should treat it that way I think - as something constructive. Since you answered it so many times, why not decide NOT to answer it or answer it in a nice way? Either is fine with me but thanks for telling me it's not a bug.
This leads me to my next question, thus not making this thread obsolete and reeking of flame war stench - Is there a way to map the sms text to opening the message in WinMo sms? This is not necessary, of course, but to overpass the TouchFlo sms althrouh would be great.

oh come on, fards - you'd REALLY miss the opportunity for these little rants if these postings would stop alltogether tomorrow...
some people should read up the difference between show-stopper, bug and design-flaw though... (not sure if even the last one is right for this issue, what's the alternative?!)

Download mode9 editor, cruise the lua files until you find the one responsible for the messaging app, learn how to prgram lua and then code it to call tmail.exe instead of the HTC solution. Simple.
Or you could try cooking a ROM without the HTC message enhancements package?

Thanks for this answer, I've tried to cook my own rom but it came out rather buggy so I'll go with other roms while I'm learning.

Rather than being silly, you could A) search B) search C) press the allmessages which brings up the Winmo SMS app.
I even said it up the top (as I have before over and over again).
If there was a "fix" don't you think it would have been announced by now, or included in the roms?

May I offer a forth suggestion?
Try SSMaHo?
I have a bit of simpathy here, this 'feature' is rather unhelpful, but not as bad IMHO as the one that seems to lose my response mid type when I click somewhere wrongly (I honestly can't remember what) so I have to start again.

I tried that (or the newer one) that but couldn't get it too work, it was missing the hook.

Hmmm, oh well, at least it has been tried (and saves me having a go).
I think I may go back to 2.95... (but I'll have a play with a few of the new ROMs seeing as how I'll be going back to stock for returning the X1 on Sunday...)

There's a solution for this in Rhodium, looks like this, excessively handy:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now we only need to know which _manila file is responsible for this and overwrite the ugly Topaz-style _manila:

Hmmm... works fine on the Fuze (w/ Energyrom)
Nvm.. also

Scrolling works with WM6.5 too!!!!!

Oh wow this is legit. .
Tried it. . the earlier "release" or rip of it worked very similarly, so I'm impressed with that, but this just feels a tad nicer, because (ironically) it's from Microsoft.
Thank you for sharing this!!

i just downloaded and installed this, but cannot get it to actually connect.
it just gets stuck saying "Can't Connect to Facebook. Please check you're connected to the internet"
everything else that i'm doing requiring any type of connection is working with pretty much full 3G speeds.
any ideas?

I find this one has issues like the other "early releases" doesn't seem to want to download messages from my inbox.. Just sits there fetching =/

so i dl the "official" facebook and it wont even connect...just like microsoft to fox somethin up...

Anyone having trouble with lockup/crash after signing in, go to the device root directory and delete "Facebook.vol". Should work after that.

I use this app as additional for my Facebook.. it has functions what official FB doesn't have.. and it just 6kb size.. i use both apps for my FB account.. have a try.. you're gonna like it
Tips: use d-pad arrows to scroll n navigate left/right

This is really poor. Finger-scrolling is so slow, viewing pictures is a nightmare. There's no gallery view and I can't find taggged photos anywhere. And it doesn't give you most of your notifications.
What is the point in having a dedicated app that is slower, more difficult to use and less functional than http://m.facebook.com ?

I agree. . I was initially excited, but I find myself just using the website. . it's much faster.
But google up SkyBook. . someone in here gave me the tip, but I'm too lazy to find them and say thanks - so thanks!!
SkyBook is still kinda slow, but the cool thing is I can finally upload a bunch of pics at once, in any album I want (or make a new one), and caption the pics. Also, it syncs your contacts if you want that.
