iPhone Theme for PPC
 

This is just nuts. :roll:

Credit goes to hanmin over at XDA (and to codyppc for bringing it up at TC)

I'm posting just about everything you need: cLaunch, cLaunch icons and PhoneAlarm Skin (though you'll need to get PhoneAlarm yourself).

cool, so I have to ask will this work on the Treo 750v square screen?

:shock: im drooling!!! If you can get that to work on the 700w/wx/v please let me know!!!! that looks soo sick, its just so....clean!

PH

I'm not familiar with cLaunch but from playing with I couldn't figure out to set it up on a 240x240 screen.

Theoretically,the settings are stored in a single file so I think it could be setup on a 6700 and transfered to 700/750.

If anyone wants to volunteer to figure it out, go ahead.

I'm using the PhoneAlarm skin now, which is quite nice. It'd be neat if someone could modify the 2nd image (alarm image) so that when an alarm goes off it flashes red. (cough, cough, wowthatisrandom, cough, lol) Right now they just change the counter.

I need the instructions for this download. I am new to this so please help

You can configure cLaunch for any any height. I just got this all setup. Thanks for sharing this. Too bad the program can't export the settings so that I can share with everyone.

One thing I wish someone can fix is PhoneAlarm skin. Instead of the settings icon, i wish the icon could bring up the profile switcher.

Only thing left is to find the background and the color theme

HMMMM


like this?? ---- minus the background bc its UGLY

you're my hero! :notworthy:

:wav:

Dang I got this an hour ago and im still trying to figure how to set this up hah =P

Okay how do I set the icons so that it is visible on the screen?

I have the icon up and I can click on it but then it just shows the photo through pictures and videos ..

It doesnt go to phone and internet and vice versa

Nevermind ..


I just uninstalled this skin ...


i hate WM5 and Im going to Palm on my 650 now .









=P juuuust kidding .


I got it working now guys!

Thank you sooo much

Actually No ,


I just have the button for windows media player as of now .

I dont know the file path of phone internet and everything else .

Guess ill be up alll night long haha

I just want get this setup =]

okay I got it now


thanks again ..


for a second there I thought I would go crazy :P

lol, that was a lot of posts 99accordv6!

cLauncher is a pain to setup. It's all manual: this is the name of the program, this is where it is, this is the icon, I want it here...

Takes forever. Upside is it's free and highly configurable.

iphone overrated enough said

im just ppc stupid :P hhaha



i finally got everything done last night and its easy to use now that i got the jist of it :)


thanks again guys

99accord,

Hey for some reason I am having a lot of trouble with this. I got phone alarm but am a little confused as to how to use it with custom skins, would you be able to walk me through how you got iphone on there? Thanks

PH

What size did you set the icons to in clauncher? I've increased the size but they are very pixelated.

Whats up perfect hybrid?


Yeah I can write up a quick DIY ..

BUT

This is how I did my setup and other members might have done this differently than me ..

This is the 99accordv6 way =P

I dont have phone alarm so I just used the theme with the icons on my today screen and they look awesome .

My icons would have been bigger but I kept the date up at the top of the screen but here is some thing you can try out ..

-I first cleared all the items off of my today screen

-Click on settings for the iphone theme and under the icon tab i have these settings ...

-Icon Size = 25 [you should try 30 for bigger icons]

-Icon name enable [checked] width = 70

-Icon name at bottom [checked] height = 30

-Click on the margins tab

-Icon Margins = Horizontal = 4 , Vertical = 4

-Window Marins = Left = 1, Right = 1, Top = 0, Bottom = 0

-Maybe Skin and then Background Bitmap is where you install the phone alarm carbon fiber skin? [Help us out Mike! =)]

-Click OK

-Then click on Options at the bottom

-Then click the Main Tab

-I only have Main checked

-Then click on System tab

-cLaunch height = 200 [You can maybe try 300]

-The only settings I have checked is Setting Icon Enable and Arrow Icons Enable.

-Then click on the Tab tab

-I have Tab set to fix width checked

-Tab width = 10

-Check tab with line wrap around.

-Click on OK

Now .. To add icons to your today screen ..

-Click the ADD tab

-Under the NAME field I typed in Phone

-Under FILE PATH click the box with the three ...

-After you click go into WINDOWS/Start Menu/Phone.lnk [I could find the Phone.exe. Usually for like the camera file path you can find Camera.exe under WINDOWS]

-After that you click on Change Icon and then again the box with the ... and look for where you saved the Iphone icons at .. I saved my icons in a new folder name Iphone Icons [DUH] in the Program files folders on my phone and NOT my storage card.

-Find the PHONE icon, click and click on OK

After that you can add all the other icons you want too on your today screen .


PLEASE NOTE - This has been done on a PPC 6700 I do not know if my settings will work on a Treo or other phones .

Like Malatesta [Mike] said .. This theme is very customizable so you have to work around the settings and check your today screen every now and then.


Hope this DIY isnt too long and hard but we'll see everyones results later on =]

Here is my end result ..

Thanks for taking time to read this writeup ..

99,

Hey instructions look good, but I can't get the theme to load. I am not sure which file would be the theme or where I would need to put it all themes I've had before were all cab file themes. Haha so baby steps would work well with me.

Thanks

Paul

Neeevermind, I think I may have figured it out I'm gonna go play around with it some more.

PH

Cool =]

What link did you use for settings?

were are the files for this?

For settings I used the .exe for the CommManager

Which files are you talking about?

The .exe files are in File Explorer/Windows


The files for the icons you have to upzip onto your device

ya the icon files.....

I love this ... any chance the profile can be added to the icons? Either in place of the settings or in addition?

Like I said ..

Its in the .Zip File in the first post ..


Just download it and use Zip or Total Commander to get the file extracted to your device


It should be under the folder iPhone icons

Holla if you need more help =]


Tony

OK HOW do you configure CPLaunch on a treo, I can't find anything allowing me to change the height or size and some of the controls in the menu drop off the bottom of the screen, how do I get down to one tab for example, what's the "comand line"

I'm having a problem with clauncher not recovering from landcape mode. Sometimes it won't switch back and other times it will but several icons are missing.

Anyone else seeing this?

ya ill do it for ya in a bit

Posted by Toblo at pocketmax i can incorporate his Profiles if youd like into the one i created or im posting his


**EDIT** Check Wows Iphone for my version (combined the two posted here)

Holy crap that looks great!


When I have time immah change up my stuff =]

Can you tell me how to get date time on the theme. I assume you are using cLaunch for the upper set of icons.

If you could incorporate his profiles into yours, I'd be a happy gal ... I don't need the bluetooth and when I downloaded Toblo's from pocketmax the other day, I didn't like the way it dismissed the calls. (Yours is perfect, made more so with a profiles button!)

Thanks
jen

Sorry, screen caps are a bit grainy, but here they are

Ok, here are my settings - messed around with it for a few hours and I think things are pretty perfect... :)

http://upload5.postimage.org/242932_.../screencap.jpg

Also attached is a telenav icon I made...


Now... here are the things that are buggin me...

1) How do I get rid of the rotate screen icon and phone utility that is in the lower right of the screen cap.

2) How do I get the background to show up on phoneAlarm? Yeah, I know it looks like it's there, but what it really is - is a theme I made for my PPC. (Background from that theme attached)

I wish i could help ya... thats not my screenshot i took it from pocketmax to share toblos skin... i believe he is using WAD to do that tho

I have new settings and such ..

I will post up my newer updates when I get home from school hopefully tomorrow

it looks a lot better than my first one
