The Plugin most be installed for them to work.
The attached ZIP has my Windows Mobile 6.5 Theme shown in the Screenshot, the NeoTitanium cab, Mortscript 4.3b10, and the CMultiClock cab.
INSTALL CMULTICLOCK BEFORE MORTSCRIPT.
Note: The new mortscript may cause bugs in plugins built on older version. Please consult plugin developer with any bugs.
Update Log:
Rev.5
Added Support for CLauncher, CS2P, & TWolf Multiplugin.
Rev.6
Updated CMultiClock Layout for v0.9.1. CMultiClock has Transparent & Red Clock built in now. No need to add skin.
Rev.7
Fixed AM/PM bug in CMultiClock plus made it use images instead of text for AM/PM.
Fixed Static Slider Icons so they are all "truely" static.
Rev.8
Fixed Script bug in CMulticlock CAB. Make sure to uninstall old versions first.
Added Glowing Slider Icon, when you press the slider it'll now glow red.
Rev.9
Added Missed Calls/Voicemail/SMS/MMS/Email Notifications to CMulticlock.
NOTE1: Both Rev.9 and CMulticlock must be reinstalled.
NOTE2: If there's no text next to the notification icons, you device ROM uses different registry for the Notification than. I'll write a walkthrough later on how to edit the script to change this registry if this is the case.
NOTE3: On Soft Reset, The Phone count will loose it's # text. This is normal as the registry being read by Mortscript gets deleted by WM on Soft Reset if it = 0. When you get a new missed call, it'll come back.
Added CHome Settings Plugin Fix CAB to the ZIP.
The CMultiClock Skin CAB is included in the ZIP.
Rev1.0
Added buttons to CMulticlock. (Buttons are binded for Call History/Phone App/SMS Inbox/OutLook Accout List/Analog&Digital Display Switch/AM/PM Display Switch & can be changed through registry [HKLM:Software\Microsoft\CHome\CMultiClock - Values with bt#_link = app url/Values bt#_parameter = app arguements])
Fixed Analog/Digital Display Switch, no more need to edit registry manually.
Rev1.0a
Fixed CPR layouts for the animations of the Buttons
Rev1.1
Made the Slider & Text Panel Background 2 images now. This way people trying to port NeoTitanium to other Resolution don't need to mess with them. They'll should now scale properly.
Adujusted & Changed the Page Arrow Images & Positions. They can be use as buttons to change the pages.
Added My Topbar Icons to the ZIP. (2 versions Rev3 goes with normal themes, Rev3a goes with Rev1a Theme Included/This is because the actually Icon Image is part of the Taskbar image in the "a" version so the DLL has a blank ico to make it look right)
ScreenShot of the "a" version of the Theme/Taskbar;

In order to change to analog clock in CMultiClock, click the setting softkey to tell the script to change. Then, open the registry Extensibility Value and change "Neo" to "NeoAnalog". It's at the very end of the value.

Nice ~ how about vga vision?
Hi drkfngthdragnlrd
First to thank you for this beautiful theme, amazing work !
Second, I installed the clock and later uninstalled, one because it couldn't show the analog clock even after changing the settings, and 2 it made the device slow, probably the scripts in the start up folder.
Third, it doesn't recognise CCom 0.32 which was installed before.I hope you have an idea about it.
I'll follow this thread especially to see if you'll add support for more plugins like CLauncher
All the best

CComm 0.32 is working for me. But GPrograms is not showing up.
If you change under CHome registry the extensibilityxml at the end from Neo to NeoAnalog like mentioned in the first post it changes to the analog clock.
Edit: After disabling and enabling GPrograms again it is now showing up... great!!
After playing around with it for a while following remarks:
The only plungins of my installed ones, which are not showing up are:
CLauncher (my games launcher)
CS2P (like S2P better as WMP)
TWolf multiplugin (like that better as Multiclock, faster and more complete)
The picture in the MyPic plugin could be a bit bigger, and also the current weather icon (i will change that in the cpr).
Very very nice theme, love it.
Hi claus
Thanks for the answers, I overlooked the instructions, yet as I said for the clock, the main prob is the slowering of my device, it becomes choppy, I understand not for you
My main setback is CComm, I changed its script to prevent data to be activated at all, and the cpr to remove the icon, do you think there could be an impact on the theme?
Hey man, I am really diggin this theme...I love how the icons are down the side...is there any possibility of getting this in vga? I would be willing to donate some $$$ if we could get this in vga
Sorry for the long wait. Was up all night when I released it & just woke up.
@claus1953 I'll add layouts shortly for those plugins.
@tito12 I'll check into why CCom isn't working for you with the version you're using.
As for a VGA version or any other resolution, I only have a QVGA device. If anyone wants to port my cpr layouts to other resolutions, they are welcome to.
Hi
Thanks, I tried chome editor and enabled it, and it works !
A little thing though, the wifi icon on the left doesn't change when switching panels. Also I condensed view it doesn't show text or icons, just wifi icon on left...

The icons on the left are just static. I hard linked them in the cprs. So, they won't change between pages. This is the condensed view is how it's meant to be. This to to give the active (expanded) plugin more room to display stuff and mimik the Neo(T-Mobile Shadow)/M2D/TF3D interfaces.
All NeoTitanium images are in the /Neo directory at the root of your device. I decided to put them in their own easy directory for skinners or people who may not like my icon choices.
And yes, claus1953, I am still using custom cprs. This will help prevent custom plugin installers from overwriting my layouts which are what makes NeoTitanium. The cprs are Neo & NeoAnalog and is what you're changing in the ExtensibilityXML.
CPRFileName="(Titanium/SlidingPanel/Neo/NeoTitanium/Etc.)"
Someone please port this to VGA this is so freaking sexy, nice work drkfngthdragnlrd, nice work.

BTW, porting to VGA should be easy, but time consuming.
It'll require copying out the Neo_240x320, Neo_320x240, NeoAnalog_240x320, & NeoAnalog_320x240 cprs.
Rename them to your resolution (VGA = 480x640 & 640x480).
Then, opening then cpr's in a text editor such as wordpad and doubleling (for VGA) all "Top", "Left", "Width", & "Height" values.
For WQVGA, add -40 to all negative "Top" values & 40 for all positive "Top" values. Also any 240 or 320 value must be changed to your resolution. I think that should cover it for the cpr porting.
You may also want to increase the image sizes as they won't be clear in VGA being streched from 41x41 to 82x82 pixels. All images are once again in the \Neo direction of the root of your device.
All NeoTitanium is, is a custom cpr with edited layouts.
BTW working on Rev.5 which include CLauncher/CS2P/&TWolf Multiplugin support. Editing those layouts atm.

Ok, I get it, but in this case you should make ALL the left icons static: the photos, calendar and notification don't change but are not static

Static means does not change, so I don't quite get what you are saying. Especially since every plugin's left icon is hard links in the cprs (source="\Neo\Neo_***.png).

re/START, Organize your wm6.5 start menu
First attempt at a simple configurator for organizing and theming the start menu for wm6.5. Still has a few bugs that occasionally throw an error, so consider it beta. As seen in screenshots below, I went from Da_G's basic(only Tools and Office folders) start menu layout to multiple folders, moved shortcuts between folders, and move shortcuts up/down in start menu position. Has ability to add/change icons to any links or folders, but they must be in the icons folder located in reSTART folder to be found. I included a few folder icons in install package to get you started(hence the large size of cab, actual exe and dll are only about 120kb). New icons added to folder should be .png files. Report bugs and maybe I'll fix, maybe not

CHome Editor v1.6 beta
This is a chome panel editor, its beta release, so be warned. Just to be safe, you should backup your chome registry before using and your Titanium_xxx.cpr files. Its still under development, so there will be some bugs and updates.
Warning: this writes and reads data to your phones registry, I take no responsibility if it crashes your windows default plugin. If you do a backup of that reg first, then it should not be a problem to put everything back to normal without causing hard reset.
With this, you can do registry edits to chome plugins, to values listed under the following keys:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\*all plugins*
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\*all plugins*\*all pages*
v1.6 changes:
-fixed Add Page sticking on Page10 and duplicating
-changed file chooser for adding application links, and icon links
-few layout changes
-converted cpr writing to using ATPlugin Installer, huge thanks to AppStar
-maybe more, can't remember right now
v1.5 changes:
-added web page wizard with opera bookmark import option
-added custom cpr option(more documentation later)
-changed some of layout
-changed color scheme
v1.4 changes:
-finished app wizard, has icon dialog now
-added Remove for panels and pages
v1.3 changes:
-added app page wizard; still needs icon support, but icon links can be added through "Manual Edit Item Values" in menu for now
-fixed issue where not starting for some users
v1.2 changes:
-removed panel filter so you can edit all values under plugins, like CClock to set right soft keys
v1.1 changes:
- made some changes to layout
- added ability to add new panels/new pages to registry and cpr
Opera Favorites panel with auto import
Now included inside of CHome Editor.
NOTE: If you still want to install opera by cab, Jugernaut has your fix using new style ATPlugin Installer for a safe install. Cab is located on this LINK
Start Menu Expanded
Start menu expanded to 4 icons wide in portrait and 6 in landscape. Two versions, one with honeycomb, and one without.

Colors Install: Disable titanium, copy desired color into \windows. Copy bronzeres.dll for the panels, StartMenu_Selection.png for the start menu hexagon, and the 2 cpr files for start menu layout. All Colors are included in zip below. I will add some lock screen colors to go with these and maybe PIE icons.

Edit from Sleuth: Want a positional aware Titanium Weather version that works with myLocation? After installing Titanium Weather from one of the cabs below, go here and scroll down to the Location aware apps section.
This may be a stupid question...but will this work with 6.1?
showaco said:
Just thought I would post a modified start menu for 6.5
I made a few different ones, two sizes. The honeycomb currently seems a little slow, so by decreasing the size it makes it easier to navigate. Portrait and landscape files included in cabs along with a different unselected comb background.
WM 6.5 only
Install: Run cab and then soft reset.

HoneyCombs are for kids! lol
am a kid
u should be
so hmm its 6.5 out?
Maybe I am in the minority, but I have no idea why I would like this honeycomb over, well, over anything. I assume there is more to it then this stupid today screen but I could just get any program and dump a bunch of shortcuts on my today screen if I wanted that. Just my 2 cents

Here's the icons packs currently available for TitaniumWeather 4.0+
Left to right----Stardock, BeyondInvisible, Buff, and HTC
Spil icons
UPDATED May 5:
tried to fix layout issues with some icon packs, if you still have a issue then please post a screenshot along with device resolution so I can fix.
Anyone that has icon packs they've made, feel free to post for all to use.
I've posted a few sets for wm7 theme in ibrythill's wm7 thread in development and hacking forum if someone needs a set for that theme.
Additional .plg files for wqvga on ibrythill's wm7 theme are located in post 635 and post 638 by Genix9, more in post 702
Install cab and then go to TitaniumWeather Menu/Panel Display Options/Type of Icons used and then choose the icon set you want to use. It takes about 20 seconds to load completly because it has to rewrite the cpr file, and then run a full update so that all the registry entries get updated for the icons. So be patient and Enjoy
Im happy with my current ROM, so I wont be changing to 6.5 yet. I do have some questions about how this works for the future.
So you hit the start menu then this fills up you screen covering your TF3D?
The 1st pic shows the honeycombs overfilling the screen at the bottom. Is this menu "scrollable" to reach shortcuts that are offscreen?
Is that gigantic X a part of the new start menu or is that the X from 6.5? WOW that is big.
What is that "Marketplace" shortcut in your pic?
why don't make it for Wm 6.1 ???
6.5 is just out still testing fase...

It may be portable but it more than likely will take day to fix and get it right and you will prolly need alot of file from 6.5

Yes, this is the new start menu and its scrollable, but scrolling is slow in this beta. The original is only 3 apps wide, by making the honeycomb smaller, less scrolling to do. And yes, that gigantic X is part of 6.5 for now. The other taskbar icons are slightly smaller, but they made that bigger. Marketplace link doesn't work yet, but I assume it will be like apple's appstore/itunes.
The gigantic X close button is part of the rom, but this was ported from a QVGA version. I've seen pics of WM6.5 on a QVGA device and the X close buttons were normal size.
I think the overly large buttons are just a side effect of not having the right proportions for our phones. An actual VGA release should be due out within a few days which we'll see how things measure up then.
Thanks for the files, btw. Nice to start seeing some WM6.5 tweaks. I agree the default size of the honeycombs are huge. I like the idea of "finger-friendly" but come-on. The smaller icons are nice.
First post updated with new options.
Looks great. I like the Honeycomb lines removed and the Notification Panel is nice. I'm downloading the WM6.5 V6 Kitchen now... but does the CHome homescreen program up like the Smartphone version?
I had the Blackjack which had this... and I did some programming and tweaking on it.
From what I remember there is an "\Application Data\" folder which had the XML screen layouts which could then add plugins. I know Samsung actually had quite a few custom layouts which were included in their roms that were based off that style.
Just curious because if they're essentially porting over the Smartphone style homescreen... then we should have several hacks already for it.
Having finally flashed to Kitchen Beta 7... using the CHome.dll... my notification icons are reduced by around 50% and are half cut off at the bottom.
I'm not having any luck looking through the dll file. Are you running this in VGA on a Touch Pro?
The Start Menu tweak is working perfectly.

***My message to you
Hi there,
To sup up things a little, I've continued working on original Dark Diamond theme created by Lukymat for PocketCM.
I first have arranged things a little for personal use then, discovering PocketCM coding possibilities, I decided to get further in theming and share my work.
With Lukymat's help, I added things here and there, corrected a lot of others things, reworked code and graphics...
Many thanks to Tene, PocketCM developper and Lukymat for helping at this.
I'm releasing a "0.9" version which looks still like a beta to me... This is as a matter of fact because PocketCM is still in developpement with a large room for improvements too.
There's a lot of changes since my previous 0.3 release. I'm keeping the same idea of skinning in HTC TouchFlo's spirit and stay away from bugs as much as I can.
Please be aware that PocketCM is not completely stable in its current version, but this is the only one compatible with this skin.
Fell free to express you support, thanks, suggestions and remarks
Hoping you'll appreciate our work.

"Read me" file
You should not distribute this theme. Please only link to these webspace links.
For any use or modification of this theme, please contact me!
***Installation (in the right order)
If it's not already done, install CAB version of PocketCM 0.29.
Copy "Dark diamond 0.9.zip" directly in PocketCM folder "Program files\PocketCM". Don't unzip it!
Copy fonts in "Windows" and/or "Windows\Fonts" or "Windows\Polices" depending on your ROM language.
Copy language file(s) in PocketCM folder.
Launch PocketCM, load theme via options screen, load language file.
Eventually here, select "Wide resolution" if you have a wide phone.
Restart completely PocketCM.
***Screenshots
(Screenshots are in French, but skin is English-friendly!)
Customizable contact list/search:
Contact details and SMS:
The keyboard is PocketCM Keyboard 0.14 along with the great Nottingham's Black Diamond skin which I like a lot.
Two types for menus:
Options...
Landscape mode:
***Custom theme settings
Since PocketCM 0.29, it is possible to add custom settings to themes.
Useful or not (!), I added these custom settings to Dark Diamond:
-Show/hide default contact picture,
-Show/hide alphabetical index,
-Align contact picture on left or right side of the list,
-Colors schemes (HTC's green by default, blue, red, yellow) -> You want to see a new color scheme -> Ask me...*
-Choice between different style for checkboxes,
-Choice between two styles of menu (a fast basic menu or a HTC "Quick list" style menu),
-Formatting options for contact name in list,
-Formatting options for the second line in list to show either phone number or company or both.
Possibilities are almost inifinite, so if you have a bright idea, please share it with me!
Some custom settings need time or a restart of PocketCM to be applied. List formatting need the entire contact cache to be rebuild, this can take time depending of the number of contacts you have.
***Release notes
This release of the skin is designed only for PocketCM 0.29 and perhaps later versions.
It is not compatible at all with previous versions, because it uses new features.
I designed this release in one unique package, one for all resolutions PocketCM can handle properly and natively: QVGA and VGA, standard and wide.
Wide resolutions are handled in this theme via a custom option.
This relaese is zipped entirely to be fully compatible with PocketCM, as a consequence it's a bit slow at its first launch.
Despite of numbers of optimizations, this release is still "heavy", I'm working at recompressing graphics with not too much alterations.
PocketCM 0.29 should be installed via the CAB version, it should be more stable than the ZIP one.
***Limitations
-Please restart completely PocketCM after having loaded the theme, so that it displayed correctly.
-Please select wide resolution if needed immediately after having loaded the theme (see below).
-PocketCM has to cache the whole skin the first time, so please allow each screen to load and display one time before crying about it is slow. The theme will be slow only for the first time each screen is displayed.
Then it's fluid and responsive.
***A side note for wide resolutions WQVGA and WVGA
To release the skin in one package, I'm dealing with PocketCM limitations, so I added a parameter in the option menu to activate wide resolution WQVGA and WVGA support.
Until this parameter is activated, the skin behaves in standard resolution, and has graphical glitches.
If you have a WVGA or WQVGA phone, this should be the first thing you have to do when you select the theme: check the "Wide resolution" box!
***Fonts
You should copy Helvetica fonts in the "Windows\Fonts" folder before using the skin.
/!\ Eastern Europe/Asia and other languages with special alphabet should uninstall the fonts if characters aren't properly displayed. These fonts support fully Western alphabets only.
***Languages
I include with the skin language files that are made to work with the skin: they add translations to skin parameters, plus some modifications I personally prefer.
Fell free to translate from English or French to your own language! (Apart some changes I made, English is added for this purpose also...)
Enjoy!
Alex, also known as "don_pipo".
Thanks a lot my friend
this guy has a lot of talent !!
try it and you won't be disappointed
Thanks hanackin.
I'd be glad to know how it works on the Blackstone, as I experience lots of crashes with the WVGA emulator. Here or on Actualité Mobile
It behaves fine on the Diamond, though.
Thanks a lot!
Now I am using my favorit Contact manager again ... (was only due to lack of good VGA Skins)
Very good job, my friend.
a couple things, I noticed that the settings.ini file was wrong in that the red.ini settings were set for both red and yellow options.
also I was wondering if the option to have the index on either side of the screen could be an option for the next release?
I love this skin keep up the good work.
Best looking PocketCM theme I've seen! Good work.
Found d solution.

Looks great, only an IDEA! how about one cab with PocketCm, The Skin, and TF3D Defaulting?
QVGA...?
I know you put QVGA in the zip with everything else, but I'd rather not install a 3mb file, can you make a QVGA file only?
Looks great, but the link is dead. Any mirrors?

Thanks for pointing this! Actually, it was correct in the separate language file "English.lang.ini".
Since it's not a big issue, I reuploaded the file with the correction.

I'd love to offer this option but PocketCM doesn't allow to put the index on the right side in its current version!
BTW, thanks for your kind words.

Final version will be available as one CAB, especially to install fonts along with the skin.
Since not everybody use TouchFLO interface, I won't include defaulting in it.
BTW, I've not found a solution to set PocketCM as default contact manager in TouchFLO, but it has the option to come to front on new SMS and to be default WM contact manager.
If I find a solution for this, I'll certainly will make a configuration file available!

I'd prefer not, since 3MB does not look like space hungry to me.
Next release will use more compressed images and the whole ZIP file will approximatively weight less than 1.5MB!
If you want to save some space, open the ZIP and erase all files begining with "VGA_, "WVGA_" and if your phone is standard resolution "WQVGA_" aswell.

No mirrors allowed, but if you can't reach Mediafire at all, please take a look at your browser/cookies/internet settings.
Maybe I'm slow, but I just can't find where the "options" button is with this skin on my HD. Any help?

That's very simple: keep pressing the phonepad button (fourth bottom button from left) until the menu appears.
You should see this:
It can take a long second first time it is displayed.
This theme is really nice looking! I do have a slight problem though, I am using the theme on my Elfin (QVGA) and I've followed all your steps including copying the font files over to the Windows/Font folder. Unfortunately, all the fonts are still really blurry, any idea what's the cause of this?
wow! it's beautiful. thanks mate...

Sure QVGA looks blurry compared to VGA... Have you activated Cleartype?
Please post a screenshot unless I can't help.
Ok here's my screenshot (cleartype enabled on left, cleartype disabled on right):
I'm not too sure...but something about the theme on QVGA does not look the same as you screenshots in the original post. Could it be because the theme does not downsize well to QVGA resolution? And the fonts look slightly different, did I do something wrong? I just coped the 2 font files over to my Windows/Font folder prior to installing the theme.
Thanks for your help.

Hmmm, yes, fonts are drawn a bit strangely in QVGA. I didn't noticed this because I'm developing the theme in VGA. But these are the good ones.
These are surely VGA fonts!
Maybe another font or another Helvetica version should be used in QVGA...
Also some graphics need to be a bit reworked for QVGA (dot lines for instance). I'll take a look a this when I'll make an update.
As a consequence too, graphics are downscaled versions of the VGA ones, but I think I've achieved pretty good results with graphics at downscaling them, taking in account that I did not redraw or retouch them.
They may look blurry compared to VGA but it's a matter of resolution.
Even if I can't help right now, I want to thank you for reporting this!
Alex.
Edit: Actually, it's "Helvetica LT 35 Thin" which is not suited for QVGA. I'm looking for a replacement font.
For the time being, you can try this:
-Quit PocketCM
-Open the ZIP file (best done via PC)
-Open "settings.ini"
-Replace this line "$font$=Helvetica LT 35 Thin" by this: "$font$=Helvetica LT 55 Roman"
-Save the file inside the ZIP
-Reload PocketCM.

NeoTitanium Rev1.1 is released.
DragonWorld NeoTitanium Rev1.1 Full Suite.zip - DOWNLOAD HERE
DragonWorld TWeather Icon Skins.zip - DOWNLOAD HERE
Youtube Video Here
It has support for CLauncher, CS2P, TWolf Multiplugin, CCom, CVolume, CMultiClock, CHome, CClock, TitaniumWeather, OperaFavs, GPrograms, CTwitter, CFacebook, ArteseaTwitter, and many more.
The Plugin most be installed for them to work.
The attached ZIP has my Windows Mobile 6.5 Theme shown in the Screenshot, the NeoTitanium cab, Mortscript 4.3b10, and the CMultiClock cab.
INSTALL CMULTICLOCK BEFORE MORTSCRIPT.
Note: The new mortscript may cause bugs in plugins built on older version. Please consult plugin developer with any bugs.
Update Log:
Rev.5
Added Support for CLauncher, CS2P, & TWolf Multiplugin.
Rev.6
Updated CMultiClock Layout for v0.9.1. CMultiClock has Transparent & Red Clock built in now. No need to add skin.
Rev.7
Fixed AM/PM bug in CMultiClock plus made it use images instead of text for AM/PM.
Fixed Static Slider Icons so they are all "truely" static.
Rev.8
Fixed Script bug in CMulticlock CAB. Make sure to uninstall old versions first.
Added Glowing Slider Icon, when you press the slider it'll now glow red.
Rev.9
Added Missed Calls/Voicemail/SMS/MMS/Email Notifications to CMulticlock.
NOTE1: Both Rev.9 and CMulticlock must be reinstalled.
NOTE2: If there's no text next to the notification icons, you device ROM uses different registry for the Notification than. I'll write a walkthrough later on how to edit the script to change this registry if this is the case.
NOTE3: On Soft Reset, The Phone count will loose it's # text. This is normal as the registry being read by Mortscript gets deleted by WM on Soft Reset if it = 0. When you get a new missed call, it'll come back.
Added CHome Settings Plugin Fix CAB to the ZIP.
The CMultiClock Skin CAB is included in the ZIP.
Rev1.0
Added buttons to CMulticlock. (Buttons are binded for Call History/Phone App/SMS Inbox/OutLook Accout List/Analog&Digital Display Switch/AM/PM Display Switch & can be changed through registry [HKLM:Software\Microsoft\CHome\CMultiClock - Values with bt#_link = app url/Values bt#_parameter = app arguements])
Fixed Analog/Digital Display Switch, no more need to edit registry manually.
Rev1.0a
Fixed CPR layouts for the animations of the Buttons
Rev1.1
Made the Slider & Text Panel Background 2 images now. This way people trying to port NeoTitanium to other Resolution don't need to mess with them. They'll should now scale properly.
Adujusted & Changed the Page Arrow Images & Positions. They can be use as buttons to change the pages.
Added My Topbar Icons to the ZIP. (2 versions Rev3 goes with normal themes, Rev3a goes with Rev1a Theme Included/This is because the actually Icon Image is part of the Taskbar image in the "a" version so the DLL has a blank ico to make it look right)
ScreenShot of the "a" version of the Theme/Taskbar;

If you want Titanium Weather QVGA for regular Titanium, it can be found here.
HTC Audio Manager Plugin for regular Titanium Added to downloads. (No Previouse/Next, that's how the plugin was made sorry.)
Donators to Date:
Code:
[COLOR="Blue"]generalmills $200 CAD[/COLOR]
Walk-through
Titanium: CHome is the plugin/program’s name. CHome is also one of the plugins as well. It’s the Notifications Plugin. This is the plugin that has Voicemail, Missed Calls, Email, SMS, and MMS all in one line. Titanium is the name of the way it displays things. There is also Bronze and Neo. In Titanium the glass panel always centers itself after you move it. In Bronze (Smart Phone version of CHome from Windows Mobile 6.1), as you move from panel to panel from top to bottom, the Active panel slides down the screen or vice versa. Neo is from the Smart Phone from T-Mobile called the Shadow and made by HTC. It’s similar to M2D where there is a list of Icons and a selector with the expanded panel taking up the rest of the screen. NeoTitanium is a revamped CPR layout of Titanium cloning the design of Neo hence why I named it NeoTitanium.
CHome Registry (Titanium): This should cover most of what you’ll need to know about the registry for CHome.
Directories (HKLM = HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE): List of Directories CHome uses.
HKLM\Security\CHome\DefaultSettings
(NOTE: Any registry entries in this directory and its subdirectories will overwrite those in the Software Directory listed below when you disable and re-enable Titanium or Soft reset. It’s basically a safety backup.)
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome
(NOTE: Also, all of its subdirectories.)
Values:
ACTIONURL= Location of exe/ink/etc for the plugin when you press on the panel or press the center D-Pad Button (Example: ”\Windows\fexplorer.exe” to make the plugin open File Explorer)
SK1URL= Same as ACTIONURL, but for the “Left Soft Key”.
SK1TEXT= The text displayed for the “Left Soft Key”.
SK2URL= Same as ACTIONURL, but for the “Right Soft Key”.
SK2TEXT= The text displayed for the “Right Soft Key”.
DefaultXML/ExtensibilityXML= Active plugins and their order. Also tells CHome which CPR’s to use (filename).
<Plugins Order="CClock;CMyFaves;CContacts;CPhone…" CPRFileName="Neo" DisplayStyle="Titanium" />
Filename is all text before the “ _resolution”.cpr (Resolution = 240x320 etc…).
(NOTE: ExtensibilityXML is the Priority and Default is a fall back in case something in ExtensibilityXML breaks CHome.)
Plugins= List of all available plugins. These are the same as the subdirectory names of CHome.
(NOTE: List of plugins in NeoTitanium that work; CAppointments, CClock, CContacts, CEmail, CHome, CHomeFavs, CInternet, CLinks, CMessage, CMusic, CMyApplication, CMyFavs, CMyPhotos, COffice, CPhone, CTesUIPlugin (Old Titanium Weather uses this), CText, CVoicemail, CWelcomeCenter, CWindowsLive, HTCMUSIC, Settings.)
Pages= Pages and order of pages within a plugin. If a plugin has plugins it’ll have subdirectories for each page.
GUID= Defines how the specific plugin works. What registry entries it “requires”. What layout template in the CPR it uses, etc.
(NOTE: The GUID “{F0A1B246-6E64-40cd-8E15-347D29FF6F18}” (without quotes) is for custom plugins. It requires a registry entry for the layout telling it which custom layout from the CPR to use. There are a few already in NeoTitanium. Use those as a template to make your own. You can add custom Registry values for text and images. If the registry is “CustomImage1”, it’ll look for <Image ID=”CustomImage1” Left…..” in the plugin’s layout of the CPR. It is best to not edit this value unless you are making a custom plugin of your own.)
ICONPATHS/Image/Pictures/Etc= Location of the image to be used. (Example: “\Windows\Neo_SelectionPanel_45x45.png”)
If you see number in this field, they are pointing to that resource in a .dll. Usually it’ll be the Bronzeres.dll.
CONDENSETITLE/TitleText/PluginLabel/Etc= Usually the title displayed for the plugin such as CLinks being known as Launcher or Extras.
DataSource= Specifically for the custom plugin GUID. This tells CHome where to find the registry values for each page.
(NOTE: CondensedPage is a required subdirectory. As these are custom plugins, CHome does not know what information is used in condensed and must be told.)
The CPR XML code: The code inside the CPR’s is XML. If you open the XML with an XML editor such as “Microsoft Visual Studio”, it’ll recognize the code and highlight errors in the same manner “Microsoft Word” does for spelling and grammar. It also color codes the code so it’s easier to read. The CPR’s can be opened and edited with any text editor though like “Notepad” or “WordPad”.
EDIT: XML Notepad 2007 by microsoft for editing the cpr files found by justpctech. Special thanks to him for finding this.
The code: The main parts of the cprs are the left/top (Position) and width/height (size) entries represented in pixels. They control how big something is and where it is positioned onscreen. The left/top values are from the images of the specific layer, not the whole screen. So, if the layer is 240 pixels wide by 100 pixels tall, the left/top value are for within that rectangle. To scale images use this code, ScaleStyle="***". Known working values are Fit and Stretch. Color refers to the color of the text and its offset. OffsetNone is the text itself. Vertical/HorizontalAlignment is the layout of the text within its width/height box. If your image or text gets clipped off, try adding Clip=”False” to the Layer(s) in is inside of. Expanded layers are the layout of the plugin when active and Condensed is inactive. The page arrows are the NPI and MPI layers. TitaniumListView refers to Titanium. If you change both entries to BronzeListView, it’ll act as Bronze does on the Smart Phone as described above.
That should cover the basics of editing the CPR. Just start playing with them and you’ll catch on quickly as did I. If you know html or xml you have a head start.
Known bugs:
Reserves for Bug List and Fixes
NOTE: Disable Titanium before uninstalling. If you still can NOT Uninstall NeoTitanium, it is probably becaused you replaced a file or edited a registry key that the cab made. Since Windows Mobile can't find it, it'll give an error while uninstalling. Try reinstalling and than uninstalling. If this does not work, than you'll probably have to HARD RESET.
Settings tab links broken. Fixed and cab has been updated.
TitaniumWeather Tues/Wed spacing not correct: Fixed and cab replaced thanks to Showaco.
ATFavePeople missing slide bar Icon on certain pages. This is caused by the fact ATFaves.exe deletes the old page value and writes a new value in the registry. Work around, add new registry value in the bugged page(s).
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\ATFavePeople - Add new string, IconFixed = \Windows\Neo_Favorite.png
Changes:
Rev.3
Added layout for Showaco's Opera favorites and AppStar's FavePeople plugins.
Rev.2
Added layout to the cpr's for Titanium Weather V3 by Showaco. Edited Titanium Weather cab in Post 1 (For NeoTitanium ONLY, no regular Titanium CPR's in the cab).
Reduced to touch sensitive area of the screen to just the slider bar with the icons. (Working on adding buttons in the expanded area, to come in future release if possible)
NICE!

Yes you do, being as ROM's change so much I decided to leave that out. Plus it was causing me to take a lot longer to release it. In the future I may have another release with some links fixed. Even than you can still add pages. I don't know what the limit is to how many pages a plugin can have.
The plugin below the clock is for T-Mobile Fav 5 service. If you don't have T-Mobile, just disable it. The 3rd plugin is for short cuts to contacts. Read the registry walk-through in the 2nd post for help on what to do.

Loaded and learning how to play with it, but it's real nice, I don't have MyFaves also I don't like the Weather tab, but I like it a lot, a total new concept (even taken from Neo)
Thanks for you super work

To rearrange or disable tabs, read the Walk-Through in post 2. It describes where the registry is to change them. The cab has both the security and software extensibilityxml registry values. You can just delete the value in Security and than edit the one in Software.
Thanks for pointing the way, for now I'll leave as it is, no deal, also I feel that you will improve this app. for sure
Also within minutes/hours/days Anryl might change his Rom and who knows this could be cooked ???

Myfaves is for T-Mobile alone btw. If you don't have the service you can remap the urls to programs, internet shortcuts, contacts, what ever. That is in the registry as well. The weather app is being updated by Showaco. I'll update the cab once he releases it with the new cpr layouts. I showed him how to create a custom plugin for it instead of using TestUIPlugin. It'll no longer require 2 plugins being active.
showaco said:
Thanks to drkfngthdragnlrd, I'll have a totally new titaniumWeather available in a day or so. I have to rewrite the code for parsing the data, but I have the layout pretty close to a final. This one will have the default first page that everyone is used to. Then it will have a current conditions detail page and the 5 day forecast pages in detail, one page per day. I could also add a radar page, but the image might be a little small to view, but could be nice for quick look. Here's screenshots of mock-up of the new summary page and a detail page. New one should be smaller in size too, since I'm able to eliminate some image files now.

How do I get this completely off my phone??
I realize that this is a good concept of fusion between two versions of CHome, but how do you get it OFF your phone? I tried to just uninstall the CAB from 'Remove Programs', but it is still on my phone. Please don't tell me I have to do a hard reset..if I do, then there should be some warning at the beginning of this thread!

VGA Panoramic Mod for kimi_sae_ireba Sense 2.1.19202517.0I have updated the panoramic mod to work with kimi_sae_ireba's Sense 2.1.19202517.0 VGA port. This version uses the same background files (67ea4038_manila, 67fc58b9_manila, & 680e713a_manila) for both portrait and landscape. Previous panoramic wallpapers made for portrait will work fine with this mod. You can find many panoramic wallpapers in this thread or many more in this thread at ppcgeeks.com.
mwalt2 kimi Sense 2.1 Panorama.cab
mwalt2 kimi Sense 2.1 Panorama EXT
NRG kimi Sense 2.1 Panorama.cab*
*NRG version is full cab, no need to install the other cab (or you can uninstall and install this one). It will also work to fix the sliding position if you already have the original cab installed. Please post if it works for you on nrg rom.

This is a panoramic mod for yozgatg's Gen.Y Manila 2.1 VGA port. Thanks go to yozgatg for his great port, NisseDILLIGAF and rotastrain for the panoramic mods they created, and Chainfire and 6Fg8 for their great development tools. This is based almost entirely on rotastrain's work, including being able to display the panoramic background while scrolling. I mainly got it to fit VGA correctly and changed the landscape panoramic view so that you can see the full wallpaper and it is not cut off. Many thanks to theboostman for removing lines in portrait mode and making the opaque white background appear in all menus and Kamill for the CompactHomeScreen mod.
You can watch a video of it in action here.
Gen.Y Panorama v2b contains only the panoramic manila files and the two backgrounds pictured above, so that you will still have the same slider, curtains, clock, etc.
Gen.Y Panorama with mods v2b.cab contains the panoramic manila files, and the two backgrounds pictured above, as well as the hidden when inactive call history/calendar (compatible with 25 languages), black-glass flip clock, Lucarp78's transparent slider, no curtains, and Kamill's CompactHome Classic Full. This is the version pictured and in the video. The icons by bullet7722 are not included.
Gen.Y Panorama mods v2b-No CompactHome contains all things in Gen.Y Panorama with mods v.2b.cab except the CompactHome mod.
Gen.Y pano-slide move down fix 2b.cab will move the image down if it moves higher while sliding. Seems to be needed with NRG's Roms.
Known issues
-Some people are having the image move up/down while sliding across tabs. If this happens to use, please try the Gen.Y pano-slide move down fix.cab (do not uninstall VGA Gen.Y Panorama cab).
-Two thin vertical lines may appear on background in landscape mode
See Post #2 for more backgrounds!
FAQ, Additional Languages for Hidden Mod, Wallpapers, and clocks
Install all image cabs to main memory. They need to be in /windows to work.
FAQ:
1) I have Energy ROM and get blend of original background with the panoramic one.
See solution posted by hefman HERE.
2) What are the two thin vertical lines between images in landscape?
They are a by-product of the way the mod is written and cannot be fixed at this time.
3) The image moves up while sliding.
Please try Gen.Y pano-slide move down fix.cab from post #1.
Creating your own images:
Panoramic images for created as with the other panoramic mods (so search if you need a detailed guide ). Briefly, a 1536x512 panoramic picture is made into 3 sequential 512x512 .png images (named pano1,pano2,pano3 or whatever.). These images are then placed into 67ea4038_manila, 67fc58b9_manila, and 680e713a_manila for portrait with cfcgui and cfc compressed (optional). 6832a23c_manila, 6844babd_manila, and 682089BB_manila are the files for landscape. Copy them to /windows on your device and overwrite the ones there to change the background (requires restart of tf3d2.1). Manila files to edit are in Gen.Y Pano Background files.zip.
Guide for creating your own wallpapers by rotastrain.
Cabs for backgrounds I've made. Click image to download and restart manila/phone once cab is installed:
Most contain portrait and landscape cabs, so you can choose which you want. The zip contains cabs and larger .jpg to preview before install if you wish. Preview is portrait mode, landscape may be cropped.

The clock with 'no icons' removes the calendar and phone icon if you are using the cab with mods.
Bullet+TouchFlo+Tab+04.cab will give you the icons seen in post 1.

Awesome, I just cooked it into my new ROM for the Fuze, build 23028 and it is stunning! Thank you for all your hard work! BTW, how good are you at editing lua files for manila?
I simply love your mod. Please compress me these three manila or just create the three manila files from this attachments. I would be very very gratefull, as I don't know how to compress them.
I succeeded. These are the working ones (Created from Nero's wallpaper). Great app !!!

ps..i loved the background
installing the one with mods made my call log and calender text disappear but the icons are still on the first tab. Still clickable, any way to remove or hide the icons? Or even reveal the text again, that would be cool.

Hi superkevx. Sorry, I forgot to put the black glass clock files in the original VGA_Gen.Y_Manila_2.1_Panorama_with_mods.cab. Re-download it from the first post and it will give you the glass clock pictured. If you'd like to remove the icons yourself (and keep your current clock), open 1bbfdc9b_manila with cfcgui and click Save as... to get a .png. Open the png in photoshop or other editing software and delete the phone with exclamation mark, calendar icon, and alarm icon in the top right (the one that's more transparent). Then use the Replace with... option of cfcgui to change the image to the one you modified.

The hide call history is just simply deleting the following from 590ad244_manila (xml file):
Code:
</trans-unit>
<trans-unit id="IDS_NOMISSEDCALL">
<source>[b]Call History[/b]</source>
</trans-unit>
to
</trans-unit>
<trans-unit id="IDS_NOMISSEDCALL">
<source></source>
</trans-unit>
This leaves it still clickable and it displayed missed calls or voicemails. The same can be done for the calendar by deleting the text between <source></source> of IDS_NOAPPOINTMENTS. You can get rid of the icons as in the post above. Thanks again for all of your work!
HTC Hero Panorama Mod v1
Thanks guys. I've used photoshop, cfcgui and cab manager to create my own mod. It is based on mwalt's "VGA_Gen.Y_Manila_2.1_Panorama_with_mods.cab" but with the panorama background changed to my HTC Hero version and I've also changed it so call history and calendar is showing. I've also attached the HTC Hero wallpaper that I am using.
I've got one question though. When I slide manila, I can see the very very fine "line break" between the 3 512x512 pages. This happens with mwalt's cab as well. Any idea why this is happening and any solutions?
Thanks in advance.
Im answering these question as i am the original developer and mwalt will not no the answer to this:
the line is based on the image quality.it is a long discussed issue which i have tried to solve as much as possible.what remains cannot be solved.

This is based off of your latest version (at least I think). I used 'Rotastrain panosidetoside 3.0 without widgets all aeralier.cab'. I just liked it better with the slider icon stationary in the middle - just my preference . I guess I'm just used to it since I used NisseDILLIGAF's panoramic mod for so long. If anyone is interested, it's easy to add rotastrain's code for it back into the .lua...just let me know (you can see how it works in rotastrain's xperia panoramic thread).

Yes, all you need to do is download and install the cab of your choice. The one labeld 'with mods' will make your homescreen look like in the pictures of post #1 (minus tray icons). The one without is panorama files only. The cabs in post #1 contain the backgrounds shown in that post. Look in post #2 for more or read the explanation (post 1) and linked guides (post 2) to create your own.
I thought I would share my current theme/skin in case anyone wants at least a part of it. I'm currently using an NRG Rom for my Tilt2 so the sense icons started with that general theme. It bugs me when all my icons do not match, so I skinned several programs that I use all the time so that everything flows well together. I should mention that some of these skins (power radio and thumbcal for example) may be WVGA only.
Update: Dialer cabs now available in post #3 - not sure if Leo cab is answer for HD2 dialer canvas problems - let me know(Dec 22)
Update: CHT2 Icons cab file in post #3 (Dec 3)
Update: New wallpapers for WVGA CHT2 in post #3 (Nov 15)
Update: Added blue highlight selection bar to phone skin zipped file in second post (Nov 9)
Update: Phone skin zipped file added to second post (Nov 7)
Update: Sense Icons, Comm Manager, Notification Icons, and Phone skin download link added to second post (Nov 6)
Update: Taskbar and Swype added to second post (Nov 4)
Look at the bottom of the first 4 posts for the attached cab/zipped files. Also the Earth and sun and moon wallpaper you see on the S2U2 screen shot is in the wallpaper.zip file.
My taskbar is a modified version of the m6silver color taskbar so most of the credit goes to him for that. I've changed the notification icons to match the sense theme I'm using. You will also notice that I use a couple of dusk images (like several graphics in the S2U2 theme and the Clock Background for Sense) and I don't want to take credit for that. If I have used someone elses icons, I don't want to take credit for them so let me know. I have worked a lot to make most of my own icons. I haven't really made most of the graphics, I have just pulled them from the web and converted them for the program images. I'm not a graphic artist.
The action screen is configured for some of the apps I use so it may not work for you. You can always visit the thread learn how to update the registry yourself.
I'm always open to suggestions and comments. I'm not really satisfied with the contact sense icon. I don't really like the orange background on the picture in the contact card. I'm looking for a better solution on that one. Also if anyone know how to skin the system icons on the notification screen, I'd like to know.
I've attached some screen shots and I will start putting together the cab files for the installs. It seems that I keep changing and updating the theme until I get it completely right.

CHT Forelayer / CHT Icons / Action Screen / Power Radio
I have made a lot of realize type icons that are rounded iphone looking. If anyone is interested, I will post those as well. Here's a couple of screen shots:
Also, standard disclaimer - don't hold me responsible if something goes wrong with your phone.
Here's the forelayer skins I use. See this thread for more information on the new CHT feature.
Also, I had to split the Swype skin into portrait and landscape because the file was to big too add. Plus not everybody needs landscape.
The Finger Keyboard skin is for this keyboard program.
The cab for the phone skin is too big so here's a download link. If the cab file isn't working (it doesn't seem to work for me either for some reason - anyone know why), I was able to copy the files in the attached zipped folder and use total commander or resco explorer to copy from my SD card to my windows folder. Give that a try. I should mention that I haven't fixed the graphics for the Landscape skin. I don't ever use the phone in landscape, but I might work on after I get everything else fixed. If you do copy over the files, I would make a backup of those files - especially the phcanimages.dll. Also, I don't even know which dialer is technically in the NRG ROM and for right now I don't have the VGA version done yet. I want to get the WVGA landscape done first.
The Sense Icons are all the icons that I updated from the standard Energy ROM theme. So some of them I haven't changed. If you need all the slider icons I can provide those as well. Just let me know.
Let me know if any of the cabs aren't working. I'm having trouble getting the phone dialer skin to work with cab install.
Sense icons and tabs
Dialer
Notification / Comm Mgr / Finger Keyboard / Swype
I've attached a cab for the Co0kie Home Tab 2.0 icon set. It also changes the icons in the CHT Editor as well. I'll be skinning the CHT scheduler here soon as well.
SUCCESS!! I've fixed a cab for the dialer. I think I have one for those having problems on the HD2. Try the cab and let me know.
Here's some new WVGA wallpapers I put together. Mostly Sci-Fi ones including the Wide (for CHT2), Portrait, and Landscape versions. The zipped file is very large so I uploaded it to 4shared. Some of these I pulled from XDA but I forget where. Others I pulled from the web and resized for my WVGA device.
One more saved post.
Thanks for sharing!
Excellent Work
Your theme for CHT2 is very good.
By the way, can you provide a link to the taskbar in you snapshots.

Here's the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653881
I have modified some of the icons and will post my version a little later. I've changed things like wifi, the phone icon, voicemail, and even the default folder icons to the black ones pictured in the resco explorer snap shot. I'm still putting together all the cab files.
I see people are downloading the Resco skin. I realized that I didn't skin all the buttons for the bottom. I just did the ones I use. I might look into skinning the other buttons as well, but there are a lot of buttons. I first will put together all the cab files for the other skins.
Nice choice of songs! I so want to get this thing up and running! Had to replace my Imagio, wife thinks it was the custom ROM with 1.8.5 on it that caused it to die. Soon I hope, soon!
Very nice job as well, this really looks great!
Looks great. I am hoping to try this out really soon.
Hello Worthy,
Bravo !!! It looks great !
Is it possible to have a link to your dialer and the font that you're using in the notifications tab (or S2U2) for example?
Thanks in advance

I actually used this KD Font program and changed to the Hall Fetica Font. You can find this great program here.
I'll post the Dialer cab and the other cabs hopefully today sometime. I'm scheduled to be out most of the day.
every thing looks awesome
im gonna take a guess its for wvga only
I probably could make some vga adjustments. My wife has my old Fuze. Some of the skins will work with vga I think. I'll make a VGA wallpaper at least and I think the dialer, power radio, action screen, and swype landscape are really the only things that will be WVGA. I can adjust the power radio pretty easily. The action screen is WVGA exclusive. I'd might be able to get the swype vga landscape and dialer files from my wife's Fuze.
Is there a big demand for those in VGA?

Which .cab includes the Dialer?
I have difficulty in seeing the stock Ivory dialer and your black dialer is exactly what I have been searching for.
(EDIT) Disregard. The answer is already in thread

Yeah. I just put the download link up this morning.
I downloaded and tried to install the "phone", which I assume included the dialer. It would not install. Got message to try another location for install. I tried both 'device' and 'storage card' and got same result.
