Hallo.
I made this one for you who cant see windows taskbar anymore and get tired of htc Home
All you FIRST need is in the Bluephone-zip file. then you can use my other skins.
My theme just needs vjtoogletodayalphaII and BatteryStatus and a 2 small application to mute the phone/make x button and windows menu enable.
Everything is working: SMS/Email/Missed Calls-Counter; WIFI/BLUETOOTH on/off, mute the phone, a new taskmanager (Batterystatus) etc. You get a new small transparent taskbar with a big taskmanager-button
--) Okay: here we go:1. put the vjtoggletodayalphaII into the windows/Startfolder. Go to Registry: HKLM\Software\Vijay555\VjTodayToggle\ and set the values under "Startsize" und "Softkeysize" to "1". If you need your Softkeys leave/set the sofkeysize to about 26.
2. Install Batterystatus (if you have ultimate launch: it works as a today plugin)
3. Put the folder "SmartUtilities_FilesOnly" to Windows\Program files.
4. Put the File "RegistrySetString.exe" in the "BatteryStatus" folder"
5. Now decide which skin you wantut the bluephone.xml and the folder "bluephone" into the Batterystatus or do the same with greyphone.xml and folder or with Taskbar and Tasbar.xml (u can also put all folders in)
6. Now hold on clicking with stylus on the plugin and choose all rows for showing and choose "lock" rows. AND DONT forget that your new BS-Taskmanager is enable !!!! And choose your SKIN !!!
7. Now you have to do some changes because this is for german version of windows: open the xml u use with your windows editor on your PC or with totalcommander on your ppc:
7.1 you find in the middle a path for: programme\smartutilities_filesonly, change it to program files\....
7.2 you find at the end a path for: "\windows\tmail.exe...." there you see "freenet.de": You can replace this with your own email account. then you can read "Posteingang": replace just this for the english version with "inbox".
7.3 you find there a row with the date like this one - text="dddd, d. MMMM yyyy"- you can change this because this is the european version of date (see picture)
then save the xml file and put it back to your ppc.
- thats it.
- if you like it crazy made more funny sound graphics for you. You find them in "othergraphics", just replace the originals in the Bluephone or Greyphone-folder with them. The wifi/bluetooth icons are with german or english text (on/off-an/aus). Replace them as you like.
- the tabs at the bottom are not part of this, you can find them in my iconthread for Ultimatelaunch.
- FOR THE OKAY BUTTON you must sometimes press your Hardware OK button ! (will find a Solution)
- VGA and Landscape-view dont work. This is just tested with wm 6.0 but should run with wm5
Looks awesome! I'll try it now!
thanks you for your share ;D
Thanx for sharing....nice refreshment for today screen!!
hey very nice!!!....I wonder....is it possible to get the big transparent x button as a stand alone?...I feel like if we could this would enhance a lot of peoples touchscreen experience....let us know!!
mmh, the button you see is a icon that just links to a program called tasklist.exe. This is a part of Batterstatus. It only runnes, i think, if batterystatus is running. So i understand your wish (because it was my wish too) but it wont work without batterystatus.
If you want only my taskbar, i can make you a xml file just with the taskbar.
cool stuff I like the idea and the way you created it
but can you (or someone) make a copy of the iphone taksbar? just the taskbar, not the "desktop" stuff
Is the Smart Utilities the same as this one?This one is already a cab. Could make things easier
(nevermind sry...)
Great looking taskbar created!
Thank you!!!
This is what I was looking for, thanks a lot!!
Downloading now!
bluemetalaxe, congrats, U R really crazy, dude
Nice work, though
Olioaglio
everything looks like promised.
nothing works. not the mute (the "mute" progy doesn't work) not bt 'cose there is no registry key_value="HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Bluetooth" on my phone (maybe 'cose is wm 6.1 ?), not messages. the icon doesn't appear anywhere !
tried to uninstalled it by reversing the steps to install it.
everything went back except the hated windows taskbars and of course i am missing now all the info and settings they were ment for.
i think i'll have to restore a relatively old back-up
suggestions?
[later] got back the wm taskbars. forgot to delete the vjtoggletoday progy. everything back to "normal".
interesting is that the tray launch with the "original" battery status theme, is working. what are the shortcuts to bt and wifi??? didn't you use the same in yr .xlm file?
great work... hopefully there will be more battery themes you can share with us
also how did you make the top bar smaller?
Can you make the bottom tabs part of the same theme? And can I get that headphones grey background?
This looks very cool. Will try it .

as it turns out I do use Batterystatus so yes thank you very much!!...your work here is quite nice....is the clock BS as well?
@tomoffel: If i find time i will try original iphone taskbar. then you have just to repalace the new iphone.xml with the bluephone and some graphics, thats it.
@Vukile: if you install smartUtilities und you find there muteonoff then this will work also. If not, put just my muteonoff in this new folder. you find the backgroundgraphics in your bluephone-folder (take the first 35 pixel of the head1.png= 35x50).
@nothin: i wont buy a iphone cause i cant do such things with that and i have gps and umts on my Polaris And why should WM always look ugly and not be userfriendly, do you use still Windows 95 on your PC ?
@Kukuriku: I`m sorry, tested it on touchcruise wm 6.0 and not on not existing OS There could be trouble with the working of wifi/bluetooth buttons because the registry values depend on wm or some phones.
UNINSTALL IS VERY EASY: Delete vjtoggletoday from your windows startfolder, uninstall Batterystatus, delete the folder with muteonoff.exe. Softreset, thats it.
Cant say anything to BS Traylaunches because i dont use Traylaunch.
@character: can make more themes (a question of time). The topbar is just my graphic with icons and text on it (see in the Bluephonefolder). The original Taskbar is hided by vjtgooles tool. I/You can make it smaler, bigger whatever i want.
@wyzepro: its all just one BS theme/plugin nothing more. The theme has 4 rows (see in the xml file how it works): 1. Taskbar 2. Sound and Clock 3. Date 4.Buttons. I can delete or add rows and buttons as i want.
The tabs at the buttom are part of my Ultimatelaunch theme. I can make them a part of Batterystatus, so that they just open Software,Settings, Internet, Wheater-Program. But everyone has differnt software, or wants to open specific things with that icons, maybe i write a .xml with that and you have to change the xml with links to your software.
EDIT: I sorry, just found a bug im my latest .xml with the Text on the battery-icon. The new .xml will come tonight.
I've cacked open the xml....which files do I delete in order to obtain the large X button you have?
Im sorry dont understand what you want, do you want just the x button and nothing more ? But then you need the original taskbar and will have two x buttons ?
Hello guys,
Is it possible to get more startmenu icons on the new topaz start menu? Personally I love the startmenu, but it is to limited and the "All Programs" list is to long. Hopefully someone can help me!
Greetings.
Yep, +1 for me. Either more icons, or additional (categorized) pages with program icons would come in handy. N-E-1?
I completely agree. When I'm looking for an application that isn't in the start menu,
scrolling through a massive list get's really annoying.
Quite an un-userfriendly experience to be honest.
Personally I like the new startmenu in Topaz rom.
You can add your favorit programs in TF3D, that works awsom to my opinion.
Also scrolling thrue the all programs tab goes very fast.
But I must agree that a 3 row 'all programs' wouldn't be bad as well.
Grtz,
Leo
Hmmz. I have been thinking. Is it maybe possible to get the "Programs" and "Settings" buttons from the original Windows startmenu in the Topaz startmenu?

Friends,
I have changed my icons in manila tf3d and really like the icon set. However, the one icon that is missing "calendar".
The icon set is based on Lexxirae Rawn Theme which is located at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=435261
I attached a screen shot to show what the icon set in manila tf3d looks like. I just need a completed calendar graphic image to accompany the icon set. I have emailed the Lexxirae and have not heard back from the user and also posted in the thread.
If someone could point me in the direction of creating the icon, I am sure I could make something in photoshop using the other examples to put together.
Please assist
Thank You,
Tvos
can someone at least tell me how to go about finding the manila file and altering it so I can create it myself?

In Rhodium the following manila files are the tray and the hero icons. If the theme you based this on was for the original manila, these did not exist then.
Calendar Tab:
112dc2ce_manila & 1479c303_manila
Calendar Tab:
112dc2ce_manila & 1479c303_manila - let me take a guess both files represent the tab and the icon for the tab?
also, how can i edit these to where I can make my own.
please advise.

Hi vipaman
I know it's not an answer but 6.1 is really old and your choices are very limited
So no other way????
IconXT
If you want to just change folder icons, try using IconXT, I've been using it for years, and it works well.
Here's a Link: http://www.jdhsoftware.com/products/iconxt/
Here are the 5 icon changers I use;
vxShortcut; http://www.cam.com/vxshortcut.html
Pro: optional Command Line
Con: Default location can only handle x icons, thus Program Files\ needs to be added before adding massive shortcuts
SK Shortcut manager; http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?sksmgr/m_sksmgr.html
LnkMgr; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=646211
Shortcut Creator; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=275577
Use icons of *.EXE / *.GIF / *.PNG via IconHelper
_Create an exe file with an embedded image as icon: PNG2EXE
Hope this helps,
