This maybe ambitious at first, but I have redesigned the UI of my WM6.5 Rom by fjtorsol as the core using Version 4.3, this are some of the screenshots. Will share the modified files any time soon, hope you will like it.
It includes Sense UI type clock = Today Clock, and some of the retro clock skins I've made, Homescreen++, The squared gridscene from the forums, thanks to nullstring and ultrashot for their work.
Wallpaper Pack Added: Images taken from my Android Tablet

To tidy things up here are the final versions of my work.
Additional Update:
Fixed installation of Homescreen++ and Analog Clocks too.
Main reason that the square grid is not showing up properly, I forgot to add the shell32.exe file in the installer and had no luck on adding it to the package. you need to do it manually, it also has the BatteryIndicator.exe to show the speaker icon on the taskbar.
Download links below:
Will post the rest tomorrow or as soon as I got the permission from ultrashot to include his Patch Square Grid to the cab file.
most all the application of which you are create can work in pocket pc, unhappily only one ( Android Icons Treo750 ) which is not worked...

Did you use v4.3 of fjtorsol? because it only overwrites the main system icon when you click on start button.
Android UI Treo 750
Hi Guys,
Just another update, finally had the permission from ultrashot to add the patched squared gridscene to make the ui more android looking, this cab consist of shell32.exe shellres96, etc. etc.
"Don't forget to make a system backup". Changing shell32 may be dangerous.
Thanks Ultrashot and Nullstring.
Shortcuts for Homescreen ++ default.xml configurations
This will be use for assigning apps to be launched on the today screen icons,
Attached Shortcuts.txt
Anyways A couple of updates for Homescreen++ and Today Clock, attached are the V2 of the cab files which includes the registry file for the settings of the today plugins.
To make use of the plugins you need to disable the other plugins on your today screen and sort how you want the plugins to be displayed.
On Homescreen++, you need to tap and hold the icons to make the menu appear if you are doing the configuration properly.
The only Idea that was left on my mind now is how to run a flash animation to be use as the wallpaper or background of the today Screen to achieve this.
I think I'll follow this thread to get an Idea on how to make it.

Say toxic, have you tried my ROM with this "skin"? I've got Version 3.0 right around the corner, and I'd like to know if there's anything that needs to be changed in case someone wants to use my ROM with this.

Thanks einsteinecker, haven't tried it but I'm sure it will work on your ROM too, I wish I had the knowledge of creating my own rom so I can put all this customization on it including the android icons and the new sounds from Nexus IC OS, will htc rom editor be able to accomplish it?
And also do you have any idea on how to set flash animation as today background, already did a search on the forum but I'm not lucky.

I don't think that will be enough. I did test your android packs with my Kitchen, and I'm pleased to say that the ROM successfully installs these packs post-boot, after soft-reseting the device, the android packs will be enabled, even with that nice startup animation (even when I already had my HTC startup animation cooked in). So, there doesn't seem to be any bugs, except I will need to see if I can enable one of the clocks after resetting, as the today plugins load the default ones.
I would like to ask you if you can ask the owners of these packs for permission to allow them to be cooked into a ROM, it sounds like fun to have a Version 3.0 Hermann "Toxic Android edition" for those that want this Android style UI out of the box.

I honestly don't know if the background can even be animated, like a gif, except if you use something like HTC Sense, or Manila2D. I've not really looked into it though because I'm not sure the Treo would be fast enough to support that

Wow thanks for making a new rom for it, fingers crossed those skin packs for the clocks were made by me, take a look at this thread, and i think additional 2 more re-sized to 120 x 120 px to fit into the screen like android donut and android honeycomb clock, and the one that holds the registry settings are posted on post No. 6., at the moment I'm still tweaking some icons to replace the ones at start menu and edit some theme contents too.
I think we better ask permission from ultrashot to include his patched squared grid menu if you were going to include it to the rom.
I hope you might consider having a big storage too and replace xtask with htc x button.
Android Icons Final
Hi Everyone,
This is the final version for Android Icons, Permissions corrected, it should be displaying icons without errors now. I also include the New Nexus sounds converted to mp3 format.

One thing I forgot to mention, I cannot seem to have those 5 icon shortcuts below the clock on the Today screen. I will try later to install those manually, and see if there's a problem with the boot order.

Another thing, my 4 row hex layout seems to be locked, so I did not see this square grid layout. I believe it can simply be fixed by putting back the old 3 row layout.

Sorry my bad, you just need install this final version of homescreen++ after installation it should go fine on your side the icons are pointing to windows default applications, you just need to disable some plugins on your today screen.
About your squared grid, here are the cpr files included from the cab files.
4 column layout from nullstring and the StartMenu_Global_240x240.cpr, you might want to check nullstrings app which is jwmd armids which lets you set the rows of your start menu.
First thread edited with the fixed installation packages for Analog Clock and Homescreen++, also I added the shell32.exe for square grid and the battery indicator to show the speaker icon on top, you just need to overwrite the files on the rom. Just make sure you reboot the treo after overwriting the files.
Have a nice day every one.
hey guys long time no see, finally found my treo and bought a new adaptor, so i tried out this ui in the wm6.5.4.3 rom but it doesnt work, just letting you know.

Hi Galileo,
I used ftjorsols rom as the core of my wm6.5 haven't tried it with other roms, but i think it will fit in to any wm6.5 if I'm correct, to enable the suare grid menu, you have to download the patched shell32.exe from this zip file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=809018&d=1323303345, and then install the icon packs etc.

CFC compressed version is available now! Thanks to Chainfire for that. What's CFC? Its a compression method for the tf3d image files that greatly reduces file size. The CFC cab and zip below also included a modified manila.exe and mode9.dll necessary for the cfc compressed files along with two other dlls and ALL manila image files compressed. CFC compression allows for quicker tf3d. The cab uninstalls the modified files if you don't like it. Standard version is still available for download as well below.
I've been working on making a blue base theme to use with different backgrounds. Except for backgrounds, I've modified or created all the image files that have changed from the ROMeOS base I started with(some are unchanged). I changed the clock to a transparent blue glass and the unselected icons are semi-transparent so that the background can be viewed through all. I've added the active clock and calendar icons for preview and selected views. Tabs that are enabled by default:
Home
People
Calendar
Messages
Email
Album
Music
Internet
Settings
Comm. Mgr
Call History
Programs
Weather
Sounds
I included 10 wallpapers in cab and zip file.

I'm working on some more interesting mods for the different panels, check next post
Here's a couple of screenshots of upcoming updates, first pic shows modded titlebar line by removing the carrier name and moving date to center. I enlarged the date, made it bold font, and increased font size. I also removed the callhistory and calendar parts since I don't use those. Second pic shows expanded email paper I'm working on, I like to see more of a preview than through the slit of the envelope. I also changed the text color to white on blue paper. The third pic I only increased font size of month and made it bold so it stood out a little more. I also enlarged all the selected icons in the tab bar, never made sense to me why it would be smaller than unselected icons.

WOw, u really got something going here! I love blue themes so much more over black. This clock would be awesome if also made transparent while keeping the blue accent to it! I usually put up annik nayler or mariza prince as my wallpaper but using this theme along with my wallpaper and this clock being transparent would be perfect!

After I installed it, I moved to the programs tab and it locked up the tabs. Any ideas?
havent really been around and all with moving cross country .. but daaaaaamn this is DOPE i knew ud come thru sooner or later!
kudos SHOWACO!
man, looks awesome showaco!! thanks a lot and i got my new theme
Hello there! Great theme I really like it.
I have run into some issues though whilst running this theme.
I installed it as detailed above and everything went well, every tab seems to work, and if I go to the Call History tab it works, but when I leave the Call History tab and return to any other tab, be it Home or Weather (for example) the entire TF3D seems to freeze up for a length of time and then it will finally go to the other tab (weather or home) a few minutes later. I will make and post up a video as an example!
Very interesting :-\!
Thanks!
Kewlj1313
the tabs are clear and on some screens it's hard to see because of the background image like in programs or internet tabs. Is there a way to make it so you can't see through the tabs?
Also, for the internet theres a lot of tabs that I don't use, how can I edit the list to remove the ones I don't use?
Thanks....btw when I first installed it I got hang ups too, but I did a soft reset and it's good now.
Posted a video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oz54Ir7ZDqE
Sorry it goes kinda fast, for some reason mymobiler recorded it faster than i was actually moving, but you can see in the end how after going to contacts the Home tab doesn't load and i can't switch tabs after this has happend, requires a restart :-\

Yeah, I see what you mean. I'm not sure what is causing it. It happened to me on the Sounds tab, thats why I removed that tab. You can disable tf3d in today settings and then re-enable to restart tf3d without having to reboot. I'll try to figure it out, as it has to be some of the icons I made somewhere. It will probably take a little bit, as there are 183 files to go thru and I'll have to compare them to originals to make sure of whats what. Give me a couple of days

You can remove internet favorites bookmarks by opening opera and removing them from there since it reads bookmarks for internet tab from opera's bookmarks.
hey showaco. i have one bug. on the sms tab, when i hit menu, it doesnt bring up the list with new, reply, etc. i used manila customizer to install the theme, so not sure if that caused the concern. i just really try to stay away from the cab installs as theyre usually a pain to remove no biggie, just wanted to report and see if i was the only one. thanks again

Hi! I had typed up a list of things the other day with what i found, one of them is now listed, (the problem w/ going to call history and not being able to move to a new tab) but aparently it never made it here.. *go figure*
2 other things i've noticed with it, the tabs are in a different order and I can't seem to figure out how to remove/change the order. (not really a "problem" but yea..) and on some tabs, like Settings, and Programs(Internet, etc) the options on them over lap with the buttons at the bottom.. also just noticed, that the SMS tab, it likes to crash when you hit the "menu" button, or just does nothing. I see that someone else was having the same issue, but installed it differently, but it doesn't look like that's the cause since i installed it per your directions (tho I did let it restart when it asked me to)
Great work on it BTW.. Oh one last question, how did you get the clock to go transparent on the main page? I cant seem to get it to do anything.
TIA
Nice theme! I'll be using this one for a while.
I had a quick question, how can you see the background picture on all the different screens? On my phone the background image only shows on the today screen

To change tab order, you can use either Advanced Configuration or TF3D Configurator. The overlap is only seen because I made tab bar transparent, if it was blue, you wouldn't see them If you want completely transparent clock, you will have to find a cab for it since this one is transparent blue.

I looked and I dont have a TF3D Configurator, is that something I can download, or did AT&T simply hide it from me? (or am i just not looking in the right place?)
My clock is not transparent at all, its a solid gray. Gonna try the new version out
*edit*
you mean the Diamond_TF3D_Config program? just stumbled across it in a thread labled "[CABS] Just bought a Fuze? You gonna need these cabs, son!" gonna check it out

Installed the CFC cab and the clock on mine is still a solid gray. and the Text Messages tab, the Menu Key is still broke

Try the file I attached in zip below and see if it helps out your clock issue. You'll have to unzip, copy it to phone, then disable tf3d, copy this file into windows using Total Commander, then re-enable tf3d. Let me know how it works.
The messages tab works on mine, what version of tf3d do you have? My version is 1.2.35348.2_1813.6. I didn't change any files in messaging except for image files, so not sure how that could effect messaging menu.
Nice Work
Hey Showaco,
Thanks for this. Nice piece of work indeed.

Oh and just to confirm the CFC version does load a whole lot faster than the standard.

So I have finally wrapped this up to a point where this project can be shared in all decency. I started this project with the Verizon theme from Archy. His Verizon Xen theme included a slightly modified version of this landscape theme.
It has been a B**** separating the landscape theme from the rest and I never would have succeeded if it weren't for the m9editor. It is still not completely bugfree (hence beta) and if anybody knows can help finishing this up then chefs and skinners will have a nice new landscape interface to integrate into their favorite devices.
Bugs/Impurities so far include:
- Weather will not be updated anymore (it freezes saying last update: -%d min ago) (fixed)
- VZAppzone has no functionality (fixed)
- IDS_LAUNCHBROWSER message (fixed)
- call history tab added (fixed)
- Background on all tabs not yet working (fixed)
- contacts tab empty (fixed)
- phone softkey non responsive in landscape mode. (never broken only because of yota contacts I think)
- when checking a mail, the mail closes for no apparent reason (still not clear if this it due to this app)
- in landscape mode the new application and the browser buttons will adopt the icon of the previously selected tab (fixed, thanks to probex)
So I guess a screenshot is appropriate:
I started off with a fairly neutral version off this theme, so that it will fit in with the unskinned HTC TF3D theme, but when this this theme is finalized others will come
We have come to be at beta 6 already, with a lot of help from Herg62123 and ITNV and most of the bugs are gone (if you find any more please report). But before I post a final I would like to try to change a couple of small things. I do think it would be nice to create a link to a winmo appstore, maybe Gecko (anybody else liking this?)
Change log:
- Beta 7: should work on any device, but it does change the portrait background to gray.
- Beta 8: fixes the wallpaper bug but only on the homescreen so far
- Beta 9: displays your old raphael background instead of the gray one.
- Beta 10: now fixes the landscape on all pages problem, but an old friend mister missing internet tab has made a reappearance. I stopped putting everyone who helped sorting out these files in the cab name, that was getting out of hand. I also have incorporated the Gecko Appstore in this release.
- Beta 11: Fixes the internet tab not being shown (thanks Showaco) and the link to the Gecko Appstore is now actually called Gecko (thanks ITNV). This is almost the final release, just a few minor changes and its up. It does however mess up my contacts cab (I use ROMeOS latest) but this has not been corroborated by others.
- Beta 11 (no background in all tabs) is exactly as beta 11 the same except for....
- Thanks to Dharvey the beta 11 is now also CFC and he uploaded beta 11 to another file host, check this post
- Beta 14.3: has a couple of under the hood changes (got rid of the VZapp.lnk) and mostly a restyled look (with a funny slider coding mishap somewhere) to resemble the original TF3D look a bit better. If anyone knows wherein the slider problem lies be sure to tell cause I haven't got the foggiest. Enjoy!
OK, Let me first and once more give a big thanks to Showaco, whoe helped a lot putting the final pieces back together. It now has a real nice "Original HTC" feeling. Make sure (don't know how how yet, think it has to do with regional settings) to set the clock to show time like xx-xx and not like x-xx,
because if not the time will not show on top of the image. As for HD landscape, I think with the new TP2 manila coming you have nothing to worry about, will still try but this a little beyond my skill level. Any way hope you like and it's been fun, 12

Will this work on ANY version of the Touch Pro? I don't have a verizon touch pro... i got mine straight from the HTC factory, before it hit any retailer. All other apps/tweaks seem to work just fine, but I noticed u mentioned a bug about not being able to use the VZPhone app, or something like that, so it got me wondering. Is this proprietary software for the verizon rom?

No, It was just created with the intention to be used with that app, since most of don't have it will be an empty link. I have an unbranded Touch pro as well, you can safely install it, and I will remap the shortcut later, 12

no I am not disturbed by not not having the weather in landscape mode just the message saying so. I read through your thread, do you now where the VZApp.lnk is coded into the manila, I'd rather change the link than the name of the shortcut. Like I said before you rock broheem, 12
Btw Herg would you also happen to have a fix for IDS_LAUNCHBROWSER showing under internet globe in that box of fixes of yours? Thanks a million

Drastic measures, that's how we roll baby!
try this cab 12
these files are only the files you have in your cab but these are cut from my v7b1 cab file.
it has my vzapp.lnk and manila (thanks to itnv and btprices great help) file in it.
right now vzapp.lnk points to notes.....if you want to change it copy any .lnk file (ie - youtube.lnk) out of windows and move it to another file other than windows. once in that folder rename that .lnk file to VZapp.lnk. then copy the new VZapp.lnk into windows (if asks to overwrite say yes). and you are now done.
WARNING IT WILL MESS UP YOUR TF3D

NeoTitanium Rev1.1 is released.
NeoTitanium All Resolution Alpha Test Mediafire - RapidShare
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;

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.

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).

After a month in development on my new Acer neoTouch S200 (a.k.a. Acer F1) and many long hours of tweaking and lost sleep, I present Neo's iPhone skin for WVGA phones! If you like this skin, please post your thoughts! Enjoy!
Home Screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Other Pages:
Landscape Screen:
Features:
- working clock and calendar
- mms, sms, voicemail, missed calls, and unread emails notification just like the iPhone (see red notifier next to SMS above)
- slide to left, right, up and down pages for four extra pages of programs just like the iPhone (you can add more)
- bottom page features a photo contacts page (you can change to shortcut to programs)
- pressed buttons animation (icon shrinks and expands on press and release)
- custom icons for radio, tasks, contacts, file explorer...
- custom leather wallpaper background, additional wallpaper included
Design:
- attention to detail, for instance, shadows for everything!
- skin is simple, intuitive, and elegant.
- entire skin is icons based, because the brain takes longer to process text.
- a simple grid layout for easy access to everything with just "one" look or click! Keep it simple!
- a leather wallpaper to provide texture and class, color theory used throughout the skin!
- too much or too little space, or used incorrectly can mean the difference between nice versus crap!
- no redundancy, for instance, the clock and date are not shown multiple times in the skin!
- everything is finger-friendly, no stylus ever needed!
Installation:
To install, you'll need to install Wisbar Advance Desktop 2 (WAD), and copy the iPhone OS themes into the WAD's theme folder. This was developed and tested on the Acer neoTouch S200 using WAD 2.2 build 1. Was also tested successfully using the latest WAD 2.5. Any questions, please post here and I'll try my best to answer them.
Download:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=C45FAWUF
how to install into the phone?
You'll need to install Wisbar Advance Desktop 2.x first. And then find the Wisbar Advance Desktop folder in your programs folder, keep opening the folders until you find the "themes" folder. Then, just copy the "iPhone OS" and "iPhone OS Landscape" files into this themes folder. Now start/run Wisbar Advance Desktop, click and hold until a menu comes up. In that menu there should be a "settings" menu, and in that settings menu, there should be a "change theme" button. Hit that, and then select "iPhone OS" for the portrait theme, and "iPhone OS Landscape" for the landscape theme, click apply, and then you should be all set.
Some links from the buttons to programs might not work for you since I linked them to the programs I use. To point/link the buttons to programs of your choice, go into "auth mode" in WAD and then click and hold down on the button you wish to change, and a menu should come up, select edit script, and then there should be an option to link/launch a program of your choice when you click on the button. Enjoy!
hey download link is not working
Can anyone re upload the file.
the links dead.
I'm happy to see developement on this phone go go go XDA
Anyone know of a way that I can host the file on this forum, if not I'll fix the link later when I get some time, check back, thanks.
Do as follow :
Click here for the larger one. ^^
the file attachments failed because it is a 4.5 meg file, and the site only allows for a small attachment. Anyway, I've re-upped it to megaupload, they don't seem to have a limit, so the download link to megaupload in the original post should be fine now. If anyone runs into any problems, just let me know. Otherwise, please let me know if you like it and from what country you are located, enjoy!

Sorry, no time for a video review. As for the number of pages, if you open "author mode" in Wisbar Advance Desktop, you can create as many pages as you want. I just so happen to pick four because it is the easiest to get to with only one swipe in any direction.
Nice
Very nice! But changing page is a bit slow and also, when you slide page the dock doesn't stay . I have know how to do that the dock doesn't slide with it, but now it's a long time ago ^^".
PS : For some mirrors, here you got some : http://www.jheberg.com/download-CD8118DADDD1-themes.html. Behind the 2 ads, click "Télécharger" And wait 10 seconds .
For me it seems to crash after selecting iphone for portrait and landscape it crashed. I got my default windows theme back. and the top start bar keeps flashing and draining battery. I have an HTC HD2 wich is as well 480x800.
already tried a soft reset and reinstalling the app..
What can i do?
It looks great though on the picture!
EDIT:
When i choose the landscape mode for portrait i see half the skin.. but portrait for portrait doesn't work.
When i uesed bsb tweaks and i turn my phone over the landscape mode works but the shortcuts dont because i have a dutch rom.

Strange, I have it set up so that it stays when you slide/swipe. This can be easily done by going into "auth mode" and pinning the dock, the locking the 4 icons in the dock and pinning the notifiers. Then you should be all set and it will stay when you move between pages. Don't forget to pin from the background to the front, as in pin dock image first, and the notifiers last because the last thing you pin will be at the top. So if you pin the notifiers first, and then the dock, the dock will be on top blocking/hiding the notifiers and icons etc.
As for the slow slide animation, that's strange, I have no issues, pretty fast on mine. Could be processor related, as I'm running on the 1 gig Snapdragon that came with the Acer neoTouch. I don't really know the speed for other machines, as I had only my phone to develop it on. The only thing I can suggest is to go through your Wisbar settings and make sure to check all appropriate settings, and esp at the last tab about "running on low mem mode"... if you haven't unchecked that, then try unchecking it, restarting and see if that helps.

Hmm, not sure why it is not working for you, the only thing I can suggest, and this would probably be useful for anyone else experiencing any issues, is to try using WisBar Advance Desktop version 2.2 build 1 (the version I developed it on) or try a newer/latest version. I also tested the skin on the newest version, 2.5 or something and that worked fine also. Hopefully that should resolve your problems.
edit, it finally worked! many thanks!!

Nice Theme.
Just installed and started playing with this on an Omnia i8000. Nice job on it. Took me a little while to find my way in and can't work out how to get the Weather Icon working properly. Does it show updated data like the calender and clock or is it just a fixed icon display. Got most of the other bits linked to Samsungs Programs so that's great. Added in a Settings button to get me to the Settings pages easier. WAD is a good idea as well. Never tried it before and it's an interesting program.
Overall this is my favourite so far and I've been playing with lots of other (SPB Mobile Shell 3.5, PointUI, Samsung Widget Plus and of course TF3D).
Thanks for all your hard work.

I'm glad you enjoy it. I've always found Apple's software/concept/design to be superior to anything else, and Windows hardware likewise. So I always felt the iPhone skin on a Windows phone is the best of both worlds. Being a perfectionist with a graphics and technical background, all that really helped. I had to create, altar a lot of my own graphics for this theme in Photoshop.
Anyway to answer your question. I had the weather thing working, but decided to remove it because it was causing some issues once in a while, might not be a problem for you. You can certainly add it back if you wish by adding a weather item when in auth mode in WAD. If you have any questions, just let me know. It is always good to hear that people enjoy the skin, their thoughts and appreciation, so thanks for posting.
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.
