MAnila 2.5 landscape support
As i recently released landscape support for manila 2.5 leo on wvga phones i was invited to release it for vga phones as well like the raphael
I dont have a raphael so i will have to ask u guys a few questions first
,....
PART 1
ok guys first install this cab and tell me what happens.it contains the core of landscape i created.
it should get us all started.
install and restart phone.
tell me what comes and if u can post some screenshots.
im sure with the help of amarullz and kisja this project will go thru
as reported by fredric its already started..by this cab

Sir your the champion of VGA porting
Thank you for Joining.
Now i feel good
We got two great Porters working something will be up
Wow !
I'll be glad to beta-test everything for you.
Nice!
Name the title thread "Manila 2.5 vga Full Port!". So glad to see this finally fully ported for landscape on our att fuze/tp phones! Thats really the only thing holding me back from using manila 2.5 is that its not fully made for vga nor landscape yet. I know nothing about porting and such but would be a happy tester and donator (money wise) to the cause for sure! Ill be bookmarking this thread if it gets updated daily and progress is made. Thank you!
OK, I'd like to help too!!!

Well, I see all three Big Players are jumped into the field "rotastrain", "amarullz" and Kisja"
This would be some real fast progress in here...I will be keeping myself updated and offer any help if needed.
**Edit**
Guys I really would like to see the Footprints Tab working in VGA 2.5 as Kobe's development stopped and if any of you guys look into it I am sure this would solved as well...Keep up the good work...
Woot woot woot..
Can't wait to try it... I had a look for Leo landscape. Tremendous effort.
My all blessings to you for fantastic start. I really mean it "BHAI". Love ur work.
Great news, can't wait to try it!
Thanks for your hard work man. I look forward to giving it a try

Tested ( NRGZs 28005 M2.5 ROM )
Wow this broken landscape makes me feel sooooooooooooo good can't tell you how good it makes me feel !
Umm on portrait all is fine.
On Landscape
The calender displaces
The screen behind the clock is still the size of portrait but displayed in landscape.
The Tabs Viewer Button is just a white patch. ( the button with which we can open the slider ).
People, Message, Mail, Internet, Calender,Photos and Videos, Music, Twitter, Footprints Tabs are working fine but all in the portrait size they don't cover the full screen 1/3 rd of the screen is black ( on the right )
And the Stocks, Weather, Settings Tabs are covering the full screen ( except the background of manila. ) BUT items are displaced and not aligned to the screen.
Thats all i saw.
Great to see something on the landscape though.
Thank you guys Kisja, ROTASTARIN, Amarullz
Please tell if any further testing needed.
first report...
tested...homescreen works well...people,calendar,sms,internet are at halfscreen...in portrait mode i could not see sms name...weather ad settings work well in landscape...
now freeze...
uninstall
pleasure to help you

One question though. Will it work on my ATV? Its a polaris.... just kidding

'Ultimate' themes made redundant by the better 'Zenith' theme, and so deleted!
Looks nice!

MysticGenius... this theme is different from mine, softkeys, toolbar, selectors, scrollbar, nothing from my theme has been used here. Also the link was correct, only the page wasn't .
Anyway, good work, I really like the softkey buttons!

Thanks man. You are indeed correct, every graphic is my own work and different in many respects.
To the poster enquiring about Sense... this is a Windows Mobile theme rather than a HTC one.

I don't own a QVGA device to play with, but if anybody wants to have a crack at porting them perhaps they will be kind enough to post it here.
I've polished up the Themes a bit and updated the installer to an all-in-one cab.
Let me know if you have any problems, i'll do what i can to help.
Thanks for your time!
Those themes looks awesome brother!

Are you planning on ever getting these over on 6.1 devices?
Thanks guys. I'll have to see if i can get my hands on some other devices so that i can start Theming for different resolutions and WM versions!

If you could ever manage to get it on a WM 6.1 Xperia phone (wvga), you would be my official hero (if you arn't already : P ). Unfortunately, I've been stuck staring at this for far too long... I think I'm going to be sick.

Bit on the Grey side?
I wouldn't swear to it but my Dialers might work on 6.1 phones, even if the themes do not. After all they are only replacing the default WM dialer images and they haven't changed for ages. Of course you wouldn't have options for video calling etc that a proper phone canvas has.
Thanks.
Would you be able to tell me what are the files you need to skin to change the default dialer?

There are 21 of them. Easiest way to see what they are would be to download one of my dialer cabs and extract the files with wince cab manager.
Edit: I remembered all the names enough to be able to copy the files off my phone for you. Gave me something to do while stuck here at work
Here they are, ripped and zipped!
the skins are spectacular! but i have a qvga device... not work on it.... T_T...
QVGA PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys,
here's my newest strike for you. As the title tells all the things you have to know
(Click image for full preview)
Features
VGA & WVGA
high quality
completely reskinned chars/symbols (uhhh... hard work)
landscape support
Requirements
TouchPal 4 (www.cootek.com)
(W)VGA device
CAB Installation
Disable TouchPal by selecting an other SIP
Copy the cab to your device
Start the cab
Softreset
Manual Installation
Extract the content of the ZIP
Copy it to PPC:\[ProgramFiles]\TouchPal\Resources\
Softreset
Donators
rexboy (3€)
NOTE: I don't plan to make a (W)QVGA version of this skin. My last QVGA (and VGA skin) was a lot of work and I missed the support by the other community member (Thank-You-Posts / PM's / DONATIONS). And I don't have a QVGA-Device anymore which makes testing for me impossible. So don't try to convince me. I will only share this one!
Okay, some infos about the QVGA version.
I had some conversation with drew2000 that he can help me with the smaller version. I tried, he tried, we failed. The main problem is, that a QVGA device is quite to small to have good and high quality graphics. Resizing the button isn't such a thing but the topbar and the font. SO FOR ALL OF YOU:
THERE WILL BE NO QVGA VERSION FROM ME OR DREW2000
BUT
You are allowed to resize it for personal use only
You are not allowed to share it here or elsewhere on the internet or spreading over PM
If you are good with QVGA skinning and you taking the challange to make it for QVGA (not resizing) feel free to PM me.
If you like my hard work, buy me a coffee
CAUTION!
Modifying my skin without my permission isn't allowed!!! Please respect my work and ask!!!

Wooow, that looks awesome, and fingerfriendly!
Can I use this without any other software? just using the cab?

No, you need to have Cootek's TouchPal 4 for using it. Anyway, thanks

Sorry tcchuin, I lost my files of the black version after a crash and another thing which decided me stop working on the black skin was the unreadability in light surroundings.
Beautifull skin! I have a problem though.. getting a Installation of ....... was unsuccessful. Cootek Touchpal 4.0 installed.

Nice to hear, that a non-tp4-user likes it too
Wow what a fantastic skin, just donated to you Transaction ID: 385580592B208463A.
I toggle between Swype and Touchpal and to date the best Touchpal skin i used was Ezi-input (green) as its such a clean finish, it didnt look like an addon like some others but your's is the same.
It looks like a standard Touchpal skin, not an addon. Very simple and clean finish, great work mate.

Yeah, for sure. It doesn't look like an addon because absolutely every graphic is skinned and sometimes it was really frustrating

Well it shows. I tried to skin it ages ago but my skill level is just a little beneath yours lol. Even i wouldnt use my own skin
I could imagine the frustration of skinning every little thing but the result is well worth it. Ill be using touchpal more often now vs Swype just to use it
sad to hear that no qvga version..thx anyway.
I made this skin for miniterror. It's also cooked in his latest 4.8 rom. The original icons are from Driks icon pack and some of them are simply modified by me.
This skin is available for wvga (480x800) in 2 languages, English and Dutch.. I can create more languages on request.
The cab contains only the skin files... If you haven't installed xdashutdown yet, you could download the "xdaShutdown 1.01 - Exe.cab" attached on this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4259859&postcount=1
I know the last icon in the dutch portrait screenshot do not match, this problem is resolved in the cab.
If you have any suggestions, please let me know...

Edit: for the ones that need a VGA / QVGA version please test the following skins in portrait + landscape and report your findings:
[TEST]JonhDoe [VGA][EN] Colored Skin - xdashutdown.cab

Thanks! If you're talking about the portrait template, I can make the images a little bit larger. In the landscape version t isn't possible in this format.
Can you describe exactly what you want? Only larger buttons on the left side? Or also the on - off toggler? What about the textsize?

Looks like your device only uses the portrait skin template, even if the screen is in landscape mode. Do you have the same problem with other skins? If not, please let me know which one works on QVGA so I can compare them.

Thanks for the explanation. I think that xda shutdown doesn't work that well on your device. Since I'm only making the skin, and not the app, the only thing I can do for you is a separated skin .

Long long over due- though here is a preview for my JMLToday based Skin/Titanium Theme-
Uses the JMLToday plugin to update and display most dynamic notifications, dates, appts, and so forth, as well as some modded & custom CHome plugins.
More or less this is a preview and call for help >.< Looking for anyone good with JMLPanex, Mortscript, and familiar with the JMLToday 5.70 plugin- as only half the links work and hoping a fresh set of eyes might help identify the problem!
Anyone interested please pvt message me- and I will try my hardest to get the source ASAP to you!
Please no messages about wanting to beta test it, I swear it will be released in its entirety on completion for all!
Titanium theme?
great work!waiting
good job dude
keep going...
the screenshots are just....WONDERFUL !!!!! i'll stay in touch for this skin, keep gong man, well done!!!!
amazing dude love it CANT WAIT
AND ITS A TITANIUM SKIN
Yesss!!!
Titanium skin.
Thanks

great work!waiting
bel lavoro! grande
I am extremely excited for this. Extremely.
Look promising
(sorry, i dont know how work JML today plug in )
Any updates?
Previews look amazing. Would be a good alternative to Sense and other WP7 today screens out there. Hopefully it performs well.
it's a shame it only works on 6.5....will a 6.1 version be available ? At the moment i'm using sense 2.1 but the wp 7 skin looks great
would really want to try it out. hope it is not too heavy on the memory usage.
SMS/Email/Contacts
I understand it is a [SKIN][THEME] so will it go deeper and will we actually have a different SMS/Email/Contacts theme like Windows Phone 7? I personally am not a fan of SENSE SMS skin and like the original WinMo or the new WinPho7 stylings more so.
Aside from that I am very eager to your release!
@mfgrdfct : for more informations of JMLToday/JMLPanex, you can PM me.
A++
looking forward to this
