where do i put my picture so that i can have them as the back ground on my today screen,
if i use the pictures out of "my picures" and use the browse setting in the today section, the picture is misty,
but if i select the default settings they are perfectly clear,
so!!!!
can i put my pictures where these are kept (spiral, and windows default etc) then they should be clear too!! "YES"?
the "backgrounds" you are talking about are not really just pictures but themes
the files are called .tsk
the reason your background are not that good quality is most likely that they are in the wrong size and have to be autoresized by the device if you resize them to the right res then i'm sure they too will be fine
thanks for that info,but i have tried that and its still not as clearas the "skin"
any other idea's can i change the picture in the skin some how??
where do i find.tsk then??
where the tsk files are located i'm not sure a good place to look is in windows\
you can make your own themes / tsk files using a theme maker for pocketpc
http://www.pdatoday.com/more/917_0_1_0_M/
the .TSK files can be anywhere on your device and the today part will pick them up.
even if they are on an SD card.
what you need is the theme generator to create them. I'm using one that i had when i had the XDA device
just will not update the XDAII so i have to save to HDD first then copy across manually.
works a treat for me.
try some of these...
urrr? lol
ok thanks!! whats HDD, and copy across manually, how do i that,
where do i get a theme generator from?
(i am using an xda11

whats HDD, and copy across manually, how do i that,
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
HDD is harddisk often called c: in ones computer
you get the file to your device by
1 copying it to pocketpc documents in your my documents dir and then sync with activesync
2 connect with activesync and press the button called explore device
i thought it was gonna be a little more technical than that lol,
now, i have d loaded from them links, but when i run them i get an error,
do ineed to put them on the xda then run from there?
God this man needs serious help! Isn't this one of the most simplest things to do? go to microsoft.com and install the theme generator from the mobile section when u have used it save the them nut DO NOT send it to device instead copy and paste it from where u saved it into your devices windows directory or my documents its fairly simple
well i must need help then mate, or is it your instructions to a novice, as
i have tried to figure out what to do with the info you have provided, and still not working,
i have download the theme generator from this site http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/extthemegen/?en
what i cant understand is where to put them exactly as i have tried to do what you lot have said and it i get error messages!!
if its not to much bother for you please list exaclty what i need to do as i have tried and it dont work!!
(whats this mean, please "save the them nut DO NOT" etc etc")

That was a mistake I dunno where the NUT came from! that SPB thing you downloaded will not install without microsfts theme generator! get it here : http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/themegenerator.mspx Now once you have installed and made your 'Theme' Using the simple instructions then at the very last part it gives you a chance to save your theme - If you select 'Send to device' checkbox it will not because I presume your running windows mobile 2003 so save the file on your Hardrive - Lets say your desktop! Now once thats done copy and paste your theme thats on your desktop and place it in your 'Mobile My documents' Directory which should also be on your desktop now next time you sync your phone your theme will be sent to your phone and then you can use it from there! God I hope that helps :-(
EXCELLENT, THANKS, IT WORKS NOW

anyone tried this yet.
Does doing a hard reset alter the application free settings or anything else, for that matter?
Just checked and Folder 3 is showing empty when I unzip it onto my PC before transfering. Is this correct?
also, having unzipped the files I am also unable to delete the sound file. It tells me one of the files is in use?
Are we sure the Crossbow tweak works on the Monet and that none of these files is corrupted?

Just aout of interest is this Only a 'LOOKS' thing or does it add more useful features?
Perhaps I did it wrong but when I unzip the files I end up with 3 folders (Numbered 1-3) PLUS one called Sounds.
Thanks for the theme
The theme worked in my startrek. But, i don't see the alarm icon on whenever i reboot the phone though i set the alarm on. Any idea?
i have tried this on my monet, the first time i followed the instructions as listed here only to fine the phone hangs making strange noises after the sim code screen.
i have carried out a hard reset on my phone and tried again, this time using only the shelres dll from the first folder, no other dll's but all the other files,
i restarted the phone and it started fine however there was nothing in the start menu - one quick restart and all the new icons are present.
looks lovely
thanks
It also worked great on my Qtek 8500, without any problems at all!
Thank you very much!
EDIT: Well, the alarm icon does disappear when I reboot, but as I had WM2003 before,
I'm kind of used to not see the alarm icon on the homescreen! LoL!

I've had that problem also. It got very slow. I tought it was something else I might have done, so I hard Reseted my device and never used the program since(because I don't use the HTC Home plugin - I just wanted to try the program).
yeah guys it make my prophet very slow
any solution can we do it ?
Hi there,
Thanks for this great app! But anyone has problems with running HTC Audio Manager in WM5? It doesn't work on my Prophet. It gives me the known 'trusted certificate' message when I try to run it. Please help
My prophet also got VERY slow! I recognized that the home plugin customizer placed about 200-300 files in windows/ (HH_....)
i think this is the reason for slow performance!
I can't understand why some programs place their files in /windows instead of this the files coulb be saved in Windows/HH_home_plugin .... or something like that.
If someone is able to do that,pleaso DO IT!!!
I considered to delete the files in /windows but i dont wanted to delete any of the "origin" home plugin files
sorry for my horrible english
Hey,
I'm the author of the customizer and I'd like to hammer out the slowness issue. The only thing I can think of is that the files are installed to a different location on your prophet (from ROM install) than the customizer is checking for. Could someone please let me know when the files are found on the device with the default plugin? I would like to fix this for the next version which is just about done.
Thanks,

From what i've been able to find out, the slow down happens because when the program applies a skin, or just a part of it(it doesn't really matter if it's all or just a part), the files in windows folder are replaced, but as they are ROM files, the replacing of the files doesn't really overwrite them, and being so, the list of files becomes longer and longer, and that causes the PPC to slow down.
So, in my opinion, the solution starts by not having the plugin included in the rom(correct me if i'm saying nonsenses), and maybe putting it in the extrom, and making the installation go to a differente folder.

I agree, a different folder would completely resolve this issue. For instance, schen's cab installs almost everything (except HTC HDlg.exe,HTC HDlg.0409.mui, and HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml) to \HTCHome. How easy/hard would it be for the cookers to change that and is it worth changing to get better "compatiblity" with the customizer?

hi again
what I tryed to do in my V4 & 5 of prophet touch roms was to move the images to HTC folder with intflashfile.txt like this
Directory("\HTC\Home"):-File("HH_BEZEL_fill.png","\Windows\HH_BEZEL_fill.png")
but that only made a copy of the original file so I had 2 copies of the same image...
1 in HTC folder and 1 in windows folder, but what I wanted to do is move the files to HTC folder
so if anyone knows how I could do it properly I'd be verry happy,
because it would make the rom faster and would also make this customiser program even more affective.

Saving themes should not affect your device. When you save a custom theme, all the customizer does is save the name you gave it in an "ini" file in the customizer's FILES directory. Now applying a theme is a different story as that's when it's copying files to your device.
Could you or someone else test this out a little more? I'd like to release v0.8 today but if this is indeed the issue, I'd like to fix it before release.
first i am mistake about saving theme ..... i was wanted to say make backup not saving theme

Works on my Touch Pro just fine. Indagroove has a ROM for the touch pro & the diamond that is sashimi compliant. Install the ROM, install sashimi, reboot & off you go!
ROMs don't need to be SASHIMI compliant. You set it up on your SD card and just launch it directly from there. It'll automatically set up anything you have configured. It' a brilliant service! And it deserves a link to the official site/thread, too:
http://www.winmo-experts.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4
Be sure to watch the videos - they show you exactly how to do your initial setup.
Any one has al ink to that app or can e-mail it to me?

Isn't this forbidden by the mod/owner?
Since I can't find Sashimi anywhere, is there an alternative stand-alone solution to CABs multi-installs?
I attached SASHIMI for you. I am using it for more than a year now and if/when you set it up for your taste you can automate almost everything after a new ROM flash
Or just try UC Net. It is better as Sashimi and works also on new ROM's.
Sashimi better than other customization systems
Though Sashimi stopped development I can say it is the best!!
I think people did not give time to understand the way its files work and thats why they prefer other systems that do the half work.
Other systems donot put folders or files in any device directory, they dont install mortscripts, they donot add whole files to documents folder they dont execute .reg files and makisu xml with email and wifi settings.
I wrote these lines just to tell that Bengalin did a clever brilliant job though it did not widely adapted from the phone communities.
Maybe, if people want to try it, I will write a tutorial for its basic functions and maybe Bengalin is going to come again with a new version.

The above mentioned program does all this you mentioned, plus creates automatically shortcuts individuallt or from whole folders just with a simple text file command, moves or deletes files etc etc. You can also create numbered folders with files, exes, mscrs, reg etc, which are processed one after the other. At the beginning you can choose what folders should be processed. The only thing i miss from Sashimi is the resume feature, but as it never fails during installation i really don't need it.

There is a resume feature in Sashimi.If the installation fails at some point and you restart the device and run sashimi again, then it asks you to resume or not.
Also there is no need for text file command for adding a shortcut.You just copy your tree in the root folder of auto sashimi and then the file or shortcut appears where you want it.For example, if you want to add a shortcut in start menu you copy the tree in auto sashimi root folder like this:Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Games/BubbleBreaker.lnk
But how you move or delete files?

AwesomeStart is a modification to WM 6.5 that gives you a nice simple list that's fun and easy to use. Just install the cab and you're good to do.
Better yet, couple it with JSPA's Program Manager and my own Start Menu Sorter and you'll have the best menu in town.

I just tried your app on my TP2 CDMA with Mighty Mike 6.5 ROM and it does not appear to work unless there is something I'm missing.... but it seemed pretty strait forward...
Any ideas or comments?
Not working either
tried but does not work on my HD2
"installation unsuccessful"...strange!
Weird.. the only thing I can think of is for some reason the cab refuses to overwrite files in your windows directory. I'll attach just the source files. Just unzip them and copy the files in to the \Windows directory on your device.
Vga pleaaaaaaaaaaaaase!
zip file
So just copy this Unzipped file and put into -windows-?
Copied the contents of zip file and then did a soft reset but doesnt seem to work on the HD2
Doesn't work on HD2. Tried cab and tried zip to overwrite files. Neither work after soft reset. Plesse kindly fix as I SO want this.
Cant get it to work on my TP2 with HTC 6.5 rom either...?
Works great on my Rhodium, thanks!
Strange about the HD2. Can you see what StartMenu_GridScene files you have in your windows directory? Maybe they are by a different name.

and can also confirm that the files in your cab are now in the windows folder. Backed up the old ones and the new ones have different modified dates

They are by the same name but there are also the following files which may or may not require modifying..
StartMenuCust_480x800.cpr
StartMenuCust_800x480.cpr
StartMenu_Global_800x480.cpr
StartMenu_Global_480x800.cpr
ok i figured it out guys, i attached a zip containing the 2 files that also have to be included. just copy these into your windows folder along with the cab in post 1. Please include them in a new cab (if you like of course).

Thank you mallman...confirmed working. And thanks to the OP
worked after adding those extra files, thanks!
Also, curious if we can have the ability to get 2 columns in the landscape, since Its a waste of space to have only 2-3 on one view, so its also an even amount (Same amount seen in portrait as landscape)
So it seems that some roms use StartMenuCust_xxxx to get the grid layouts but not all of them. I've rebuild the cab and included the duplicates. Give this a try and see if it installs and fixes the problem on the HD2's.

I've already been there and personally I didn't like it. You can edit the files yourself. They are pretty simple to work with. If you make them, feel free to PM me and I'll put them on the top of the page.
Vga pleaaaaaaaaaaaaase!
If there is enough demand I'll create them for a VGA device though I don't have one to test. I want to say someone else did already but when I searched I couldn't find it. I
Hello all,
I have found WORKING little app to save CABs from MarketPlace. You can download the app here:
http://blog.idlezone.org/post/2010/01/11/Windows-Mobile-MarketPlace-:-choose-where-to-install
(use fixed version posted in the comments of the article: http://blog.idlezone.org/public/DarkApps/DarkCABCatcherInstaller_quickfix.CAB)
Awsome, thanks for posting ! =d
Thank you So So So Much

Works it also for paid apps?
doesnt work for me.
Awsome, How do you work this thing.
When I run DarkCABCatcher, I have set fom folder to \.\Application Data\Volatile to \.\My Documents.
The DarkCABCatcher application shows the following:
MKP5C5036.cab OK!
MKP5C5036.cab installed.
MKP5C5036.cab started.
MKP5C5036.cab copy Ok.
When I look in my \.\My Documents folder there is no .cab file collected.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Richard
Thanks !
I never used MarketPlace yet, but just in case, I'll keep that trick handy and try it.
I don't understand their position on "piracy", since I generally only use free software...
When it's not free, I buy the licenses, but since I'm flashing a lot these months, I really doubt MarketPlace would recognize my device next time I log on, so this trick may be unvaluable... Just to keep access to what I had legally bought.
Thanks for this, but unfortunately on cooked WM6.5 portuguese ROM it doesn't work. I confirmed that I have NetFW3.5 installed so I don't know what's wrong:
What a pity - don´t work at all on T-Mobile Vario V (HTC TouchPro2) with Windows Mobile 6.5.
Sometimes it write the cab is copied - but can´t find it in the destination folder.
Sometimes it just don´t show anything.

Cool app, didn't work
The critical thing this app shows is where the temporary CAB files are downloaded when installing from the Marketplace app.
Just open this folder in Windows Explorer while the phone is connected to your device. You have to turn on "view hidden and system folders" to see the folder on your phone.
Wait and watch the folder during the install. It will create a CAB file, which will get an icon as soon as the file is finished writing to the device. Quickly copy the file off the phone onto your computer.
(I have installed z-zip and associated CAB files with the program, which is why I get a nice icon as soon as the download has finished.)
