I think I fixed my last landscape problem. I just selected a different theme and reselected the iPhone one again and it worked fine.

Any chance of a custom text for voicemails and IM+ messages? I would be totally set then

Wonderful theme, but had to abandon it

For landscape mode, I just settled on the default landscape desktop and no longer had those problems. Re-selecting the iPhone one didn't solve it for me.

So I tried it all out for a week and it was beautiful, but I found that it was missing a lot of functionality. My notifications (email, SMS, voicemail, etc.) were not always updating the text objects. Sometimes there would be no notification, just the "I" at the top (no pop-up or sound/vibration). I also sometimes needed at a glance the next few days' appointments to make a new one, but had to make people wait while I loaded the Calendar app and navigated ahead. Finally, switching quickly between programs would occasionally freeze it. I SSH a lot with my Mogul, so freezes are a big deal as far as getting work done. I believe these are all issues with WA Desktop, and not lazyboy's theme, so I have removed WA Desktop and thus my iPhone skin.

Anyway, thanks again, lazyboy. Maybe Lakeridge will update their WA Desktop soon and work out the bugs -- it's fairly old.

On the plus side, the WisBar is still working and lookin good (top black bar and cascading start-style menu), as is S2U2.

My problem isn't being fixed by the changing either. Thinking I may abandon it too.

Installed Helmi's new kitchen today and also installed WA3. I have the theme partially working with WA3, but I can't get the taskbar to change to black.

Anyone have any success doing that with WA3?

I'm going to create a doc on how to install the theme with WA3 once I get the taskbar issue fixed. It wasn't as difficult as I thought.

It also seems to be pretty stable with WA3... no lockups going to landscape mode yet.

That's one of those few items I never spent the time to figure out. I kind of like mine a different color now. Besides if I wanted a full on iphone, I'd buy one! Let us know if you figure it out though. Good luck! A side note, my phone never locks up going to landscape with WA3.

Exclamation Themes \ Desktop Folder Fix !!! Yes @@



OK FOR EVRYONE HAVING TROUBLES NOT SEEING THE THEMES\DESKTOP FOLDER. HEAR YOU GO.

I AM USING 6800 WM6 PRO MAYBE THATS WHY WE HAVE THIS PROLEM.

WAY BACK IN STEP 1:

WHEN YOU INSTALL WA2.CAB AFTER WORDS DO A HARD RESET! THEN GO BACK AND INSTALL THE WA DESKTOP.CAB . THE PROBLEMS IS YOU GUYS ARE NOT INSTALLING THAT RIGHT. ONCE YOU DO THIS YOUR THEMES \ DESKTOP FOLDER WILL APPEAR. GO TO THE START BUTTON > PROGRAMS> WA DESKTOP THEN NEXT PAGE .
NOW YOU CAN RIGHT CLICK AND GET THAT MENU NEEDED IN STEP 3!

NOW YOU CAN GO ON TO STEP 3 AND GET IT !

ALSO DO A HARD RESET EACH STEP OR PROCESSS IT HELPS A LOT!

=D>

Question Noob question

I'm sure this will piss someone off but here it goes. I am a complete f'ing noob to all of this and I really wanna use this theme. I just got my 6700 fresh from sprint and dont wanna brick it due to my stupidity. Is there any way of installing this simply or finding someone willing to walk my dumb ass through the tech parts of it. I have read the thread and I'm just getting a headache trying to figure out which parts would apply to my stock rom.
