800W SLIDE THEME!!! by SYanni

**syanni85** · #1 (**permalink**) 08-05-2008, 12:24 PM

So my close buddy works for sprint and they made him the 800W advocate... He's never used windows mobile and kinda doesn't like it... they gave him an 800W but he's not convinced he wants hit... he asked me.. "if i give you this phone for a night, can you pimp it out for me?"

Absolutely.... ummm.. one little problem... THERE"S A TON OF STUFF THATS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH IT!!! I almost let him down.... until i thought i'd try this...

Here is my Slide theme for the 800W!!! And my god, it is sooooo much nicer on this phone than my touch!!! The resolution, transition, pretty much everything runs smoother on this device... the 800W is a BEAST! All pages animate in direction you slide them. To hide, slide that direction again.

There are no weather images showing because he has not activated the phone and weather panel wouldn't retrieve a forecast. If you wanna see what they look like before downloading, just look at my same theme for the touch.

The only issue is with WAD2, then END key doesn't turn the device screen off, so in the settings menu in my theme, i added a simple button that does so.

I hope you guys digg... i couldn't find anything really cool compatible with this phone, but future apps will be ridiculous, cuz like i said, this thing is a BEEEEAST!

please download the official wad2.

here seems to be the fix for gettin this baby working again, MUCH THANKS TO CYKOCOCO::

Can it be installed using the fourth Zip file alone?

I answered my own question by actually reading!!

Also when i installed the wisbardesktop, it said that it expires on the 30th of october?

I have to admit, this looks pretty sweet (I am keeping track of this app for when VZW gets the 800w.....followed very closely by ME getting the 800w LOL), my only question would be about customization...is it easy to change icons, colors, backgrounds...... (not that I would, I may love it all, just wondering)!!!!

Now....if A_C can get S2U2 going on the 800w, that would be a sweet blend of apps!!!!

P.S. Two other questions I just thought of....what weather app do we need, or can it use a few (EDIT...I just say WeatherPanel is used....bunus point!!!!)? Plus...what Contact Manager do we need, or is it part of the app? (also, can we customize the app to use other weather and contact apps?)

Thanks, great post!!!
