M2D Email Transparency 1.2 [cab] {Updated Dec 4, 08} - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps

Current Update {December 4, 2008}:
Version 1.2
Includes an email icon that will not cover up the email preview. Install over version 1.0. It will prompt you to uninstall. It will then tell you that it cannot be uninstalled. I set these cabs as not-uninstallable since I do not backup the original PNG files. Proceed through install. Enjoy!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to biscuits1978 for helping me test this.
Thanks to Laurentius26 for building some damn sweet ROMs.
** Glad people are liking it. This has received more coverage than I thought in other forums. Let me know if you're including this in your ROM so I can post a link back**
Introduction:
In Manila 2D, on the email tab, there is a huge email overlay icon that sits on top of previewed email messages. Nasty! Run attached cab, reboot when prompted, tada!
Note: it only prompts to reboot if the file is in use. If you shutdown M2D, run the cab, launch M2D, you will save yourself a soft reset.

Specifics:
Only has been tested on the L26_KaiserTouch_V1_M2D ROM. M2D uses images primarily from the \windows\ directory (see below). If you need it to extract elsewhere or have problems, let me know.
The nerd behind it all.
Cab replaces 3 PNG files in the "\windows\" directory
hh_email_background.png - cleaned up edges
hh_email_envelope_down.png -transparent
hh_email_envelope_up.png - transparent
Change Log:
October 17, 2008 Afternoon "if you want version 1.2 listed a few posts down, wait for the cab tonight"
October 17, 2008 Evening "version 1.2 released"
December 4, 2008 Uploaded zip file with raw components so people can use after Manila upgrade. This is a stopgap solution. I set the cab to no-uninstall. I'll do some research.

nice work- tiltmobility.com already picked it up

How about that! Thanks for pointing that out. Glad you like it

I appreciate what you've done but it does look a little naked. Do you know how to make the envelope angle less so the envelope is just shorter/covers less? Don't worry- I'm keeping it anyway- I like the extra real estate

Definitely possible. We can see where the last line it will show in the preview is. I'd shoot for keeping the image below there. I'll mess around with it.

Very nice idea, glad to see it! I still find the M2D email viewer pretty darn weak, but this is an improvement! Thanks.

*********************DEPRECATED***************** see ver1.2 below
*********************DEPRECATED***************** see ver1.2 below
What do you guys thing of version 1.1? I'm not an expert graphics guy, but I was shooting for the best of both worlds.
My only concern is the top rim of the email graphic: the slope from the bottom of the opening to the top is pretty low (only a few pixels high). So it is possible to see each pixel going up the slope.
Comments are welcomed as always. If you like it, I'll cab it up tonight, or we can make some changes.
edit: see ver1.2 below (better quality and position)

And here we have version 1.2. I think it looks much better than 1.1 as the slope pixelation is gone, and the name of the email box is no longer covered up. Once again, if there aren't any objections before tonight, I'll cab her up.

i like it- that's exactly what it should look like Cab away

I don't see any email preview, there is only a hint: "Click to view message" instead of the preview. It doesn't matter if I install your patch or not.

Never encountered that before. What ROM are you running?

This one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2704275&postcount=207
Perhaps the Manilla Version is outdated and thats the reason for the bug. In settings widget you can read: "TouchFlo 1.0.1819.2926". Is this the final version or exists a newer one? Which version do you have? Yesterday I tried to install update 21 form this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173, but there was an error saying that I don't have the necessary rights to install this. Of course I closed Manilla before installing. Perhaps I can't install a newer version, because my version is integrated into the ROM?

Don't know what to tell you. Sounds like a problem with your ROM. I'd consult your ROM's thread.

The theme (WAD2) still has a lot left to be done (top bar, bugs, better launcher, all which are being worked on, and some already done).
Here are the screenshots I have so far:

This is my first theme, so go easy on me
Hopefully I will have the first beta uploaded tonight!
Beta is up! Download from Here and follow the included Read Me file.

Right now it is being delayed due to problems with WisBar (unable to read registry updates) and from school (tons of work). Maybe next weekend I can work on it a little more.

I can't think of why the reg isn't updating, haven't looked at it, still doing my theme, Spb Phone Suite is what I'm using so far. Must be a bug, I figured those would always read good since it's always updated.

Hopefully the developer can fix it soon so I can get back to work on this. I am also having another problem where docks are randomly deleted... so I'm having a bad time working on this
Looks like a pretty sweet theme I'll keep checking back and give it a shot when it's ready. Thanks for the effort man!
I've added an Audio Manager tab (gets info from HTC Audio Manager, and I hope to add play/pause and album art directly to the tab).
I'm also working on the top bar. If anyone wants to help with the windows icon and sound icons, it would be greatly appreciated!
I've also fixed some bugs, added more details to the weather screen, and should have a beta release by Friday. I am currently using this as my default skin, so it is pretty usable now.

LOL! Tell me about it! I spent over 5 hours one night making a theme, then after 30 minutes of playing with it, docks starting dissapearing, so I soft reset. Then the remaining merged!
You'll get it, this 2.0.1 version is much more reliable. I only really had problems with the initial release.
I just downloaded the newest version (I had an older release for some reason) and everything seems to be working better now (and I have registry updates, yay! )
I hope to have a beta release for you guys on Friday. I have to clean up a bunch of icons and their locations, etc. It will use S2P instead of HTC Audio Manager at first, but I hope to have it use HTC Audio Manager instead soon.
I should have a beta out in a few hours!
The beta is now out!

edit: i'm an idiot. ignore
this is wonderful.. good looking, very smooth..
Thanks

Congrats! This is an outstanding addition to our Fuze. I just have one question before I install. Are the graphics still in development or is the screen shot somehow distorted by the software you used to make the screen shots?? I don't want to complain, you guys have worked hard on this, but on the screen shot it looks like the graphics on the black version need some twicking. I'm kinda OCD when it comes to this stuff. Again, thanx for sharing.

it looks cleaner on device. i used mymobiler to make the pics and they look crazy when they turn out to look at.
i promise it looks a lot better on device than these pics
i finally got this damn pocket shield to work and now i see this...
i guess i could use this in conjunction with that...
the layout of the slide to unlock your showing here looks a lot more user friendly for sure.
bout to try this out now... lookin good tho.
I joined this thread too.
Anyway, I see you also post a black version (which also for some reason is much bigger?)... does it include the "curtain" also?
Did you remove the files that mess the battery gauge?
a question before i install...
does this S2A you developed here disable the send/end buttons from answering/ignoring calls?
i assume it would. :\
this is not his development (AFAIK) - this is the code from Touch HD
it shouldn't disable any physical buttons
*** BTW HERG JUST DISCOVERED SOME THINGS ***
1) In both packages there are some PNG files that are named BMP. So... shouldn't they be turned to normal BMP?
2) In the "black" cab package you have some files MORE than once! (and I mean the same file for the same location!) It's a bit messed up eh?
3) Please don't ignore the questions in my previous post above.
just installed on my fuze and all is working well.. i also disabled the 3 second delay in ringtone with tweaks2k2 so im happy.
gonna update the cab and remove the unnecessasary files?

the curtain is in the black version as well.
the battery ggague is there for the dialer screen you need to enable it by regedit.
I've installed this on my Sprint TP and it appears to work fine. The only gripe I have is that it has "Green" highlight bars on the dialer screen and the rest of the highlight bars in TF3D are "Yellow"
Is there a way to change those easily?
yes by regedit.
hold on i will tell you what that regedit address is.
disable call and end button.

It dosent seem to be uninstallable.
The icons cab overwrites a dll also. You lose the nice big wm6.5 finger friendly submenus and it puts the old looking wm6.1 ones in place of them. bronzeres.dll is altered/replaced and if you dont back it up first, you may have to hard reset to get your original look back. Lets just say I found out the hard way

The bronzeres.dll has to be altered to change the icons.... I installed and uninstalled this cab at least 4 or 5 times and it didn't affect anything.

Maybe its a rom specific problem then, it does in the RRE 6.5 rom, at least on mine. As soon as I install the cab, the sub menus are changed to the smaller old style ones. After uninstall they remain.

Great work, really dig the fonts. Is it possible to add some icons for some of the more popular apps to match in a seperate icon pack? It would be nice to have when installing custom plugins.
Edit: Can you also add a cab for your taskbar to attachments?

Just some to use in a launcher type panel, like for opera, internet sharing, total commander, to get started. I figured you would probably have a psd or xcf file or something to easily make new ones by changing text. Thanks for the matching taskbar.

Hi,
nice theme, can i ask if this supports the notification panel?
thanks
Firstly id like to say that this skin is amazing, here are a few things i found after install, starting from the top down:
1: "Start" text has not changed
2: Cannot change "getting started" text to say "Programs"
3: text for the weather seems slightly indented and smaller
4: the Notifications Panel (CHome) does not point to any icons in the bronzres.dll
This is really really nice though.

maybe im getting these probs because of my last theme, do you think it would be worth a hard reset and reinstall to see if that fixes it?

I am not sure, I didn't install anything except,ATContacts and Titanium weather, as far as the font, I have noticed on the last font I was using that sometimes not all the fonts will display, usually an uninstall and reinstall will fix it. Glad you like it though, if you don't mind a hard reset, and have everything backed up I'd be curious to see if it installs correctly.

(SKIN) Winterface 2.0 (HeroFace)

Winterface 2.0 is out. My skin Googleface is available for download from VITO's website, along with several other skins. Unfortunately, VITO went with my first version I sent them and ignored the second.
So here it is:
HeroFace.
Installation:
Run the cab file from your device and install where Winterface is loaded on your phone. Go to options, skins, ouila!
Enjoy!
P.S. This theme looks SWEET with this wallpaper.

If you like this theme, donate to someone who actually puts effort into doing this stuff.
How?
Hi there - I'd really like to have a go at customising my own Winterface now that I've upgraded to 2.02.
How do you package the files (particularly the icons)? I can't find any information anywhere and VITO seem intent on keeping it a big secret.
Skinning it actually very simple, but good lord, it would be complicated to explain.
Basically, take a bmp like the one in the screenshot. When you save, and this is VITAL, it needs to be saved as 16-bit, R5 G6 B5.
Now, the EASIEST thing to do is to simply replace over a same named file on your phone, i.e., build your icon set on the icons.bmp and replace it with your new set.
If you want it as a separate theme, you're going to need a hex editor to edit the skin file and a cab builder if you wish to share it.
Any other questions, feel free to ask.

No. Actually, I just copied the URL link to whoever did the original on DeviantArt. The version on my phone is exactly the version you see here.
Just installed the latest version of Winterface and using the googleface skin
just about to try your heroface skin.
When i add applications they obvoiusly show with their default icon, is it possible to edit the icon and replace with something that matches the skin set?
Can I use the cab files/skins for Winterface 2.0 to install them in Winterface 1.3? I mean, WF 1.3 is able to cope with different skins. Should I somehow extract the files from the cab and then copy to bin? I tried, but even when just renaming the files to e.g. lynx.skin, lynx.bmp and lynx_icons.bmp doesn't work. I know this should be possible somehow, but I don't know much about cab files, etc.
Hi,
it looks beautiful. Thanks.

Skinning it actually very simple, but good lord, it would be complicated to explain.
Basically, take a bmp like the one in the screenshot. When you save, and this is VITAL, it needs to be saved as 16-bit, R5 G6 B5.
Now, the EASIEST thing to do is to simply replace over a same named file on your phone, i.e., build your icon set on the icons.bmp and replace it with your new set.
If you want it as a separate theme, you're going to need a hex editor to edit the skin file and a cab builder if you wish to share it.
Any other questions, feel free to ask.

(3/7/2011) TRANSPARENT GLASS(colors) email/sms CHT 2.0 Wdgts-Use W/any Wallpaper!

THESE ARE TRANSPARENT AND CAN BE USED WITH ANY WALLPAPER!​
Thanks to Dunc001 for his incredible work with his theme and CHT mods we are now able to create EMAIL/MESSAGING widget themes without having to change any of the SENSE MAIL tabs Mode9 or QTC files. What that means is that we can skin the widgets and have no affect on the sense mail tab so there shouldn't be anymore problems with these skins crashing sense or anyone having to worry about using the CFC cabs or the noCFC cabs because every skin cab will work for every rom and every phone that is WVGA. So for the HD2 users that were having issues with some of my older skins those issues will not be issues any more.
INSTRUCTIONS: (THESE ARE NOT OPTIONAL)
(STEP 1) If you have the email widget already on one of your CHT pages you have to remove it.
(STEP 2) Install (Mcluvn Mail_wdgt_Mode9.cab). Then restart sense or soft reset the phone. This is Dunc001 new mode9 file for the new email widget. If you don't install this cab first the email widget WILL NOT get skinned.
(STEP 3) Install one of my Trans_Wdgt cabs. Then restart sense or soft reset your phone.
(STEP 4) Add the email and messaging widgets back onto your CHT pages where ever you want them and I assume that everyone knows how to change the font color on the widgets using CHT EDITOR by now so I'm not going to get into that to much but for black fonts don't do anything or the code is 0,0,0 and for white fonts the code is 255,255,255 your done.
Note: If you want to change between these skins you need to uninstall the Trans_Wdgt cab that you have install at the time and then restart sense before you install one of the other skin cabs. Its never a good idea to install theme cabs on top of one another.
THANKS AND ENJOY EVERYONE!!!!

Hi mcluvn,
very good to see that you have done the next step .
But here i have find back the next issue where ideas from some other CHTS team members and me are used, but this was planned for the next CHT 2.1 Update. I mean the Mcluvn_Mail_wdgt_Mode9.cab file. In this cab file is the 6AC2AEA17_manile file. It is a mode9 control file. The idea that is used here, was defined for the next update. How do you get these information?
Because this was never discussed public. And Ber, rat_2665, santod and me we have tested between 26. December and 30. December a special CHT 2.1 update system. So now this part for the next update is public.
This makes a general CHT update difficult, because we are still trying to find out all the information that was leaked out of the CHTS and CHTA BETA and where it has been used.
Could you please help us where you got this information?

I got the file from Dunc001 theme THEME THREAD. His theme has been out for awhile now. Sorry for the early release of the mode9 file but I didn't know that it wasn't public yet. Other than that I don't know anything else about any leaks. If you want I can pull the cab off the thread but I think a number of people have already got it.
nice job!!!
Hi mcluvn,
i have modded a little bit your glass blue. Look for yourself. It is done to have the personal note for the 4 seasons theme from nordpolcamper.
That looks pretty good. nice job. I like to see others mod my work and what they come up with.
