Yeah I agree also but for me $20 is well worth it for such a great looking skin. I am however going to keep testing it during the trial to make sure my phone does not become unstable.

Anyone here just running WAD without WA2??? I just tried it by shutting down both and launching the Desktopapp.exe and it gained me around 2mb of program memory. It looks alot better with the top bar being skinned but I still get the functionality of the desktop app.

Just a thought

Memmaid (google it) is a very nice program and will remove these references from the notification queue. Use the second tab and remove dangling, duplicate, invalid etc entries from the notification queue and then rebuild it.

I figured I would post my solution in case it helps someone else with the same problem.

I was hoping for a solution that didn't require a purchase as I am entering the military in a few weeks and will not be able to use my phone and it is too complicated for my wife. Did memmaid tell you what files in the notification que were causing the issue and is there a way to look at and delete the files loaded in this que without the program?

I'd recommend PocketCM for your contact manager. It's a *LITTLE* buggy, but I still like it a lot better than iContact. Either way, the answer is yes. You can just install the contact app and nothing else.

These are the directions to get the 4 bottom buttons that was posted.
Edit 2 (embarrassed) :
I have been informed that for some people the bottom four buttons are not displaying upon loading the theme. i was hoping this wouldnt be the case, but it seems to be isolated as I've gotten positive reviews as well. For some reason the 4 at the bottom just dont show up sometiems after installing. Dont bother uninstalling though, as it is an easy fix. Just hold the stylus down, select new shortcut, point it to the app of the button you are going for, select the images associated with that app, with the carbon fiber border and the "_p" for the pressed path, and uncheck "display the shortcut's text" in text settings. Now you have to hold the stylus down on the button and select adjust position and move it over so that the carbon fiber bottom lines up perfectly and it is in the right place. do the same for mail, web and ipod. here are my positions to make it quicker:
phone: x-9, y-234
mail: x-66, y-234
web: x-123, y-234
ipod: x-179, y-234

I tried this numerous times but can not find the buttons you say to use. When I open up the shortcut page I get a path to exacutable window. When you open it up you get choices of installed apps, Control Panel, Exacutables, or all files. If I choose phone for example, there is no options to find carbon fiber border or "_p" for the pressed path. How do I get to these. Also how do I get to the ipod button? The program seems to be excellent except for these missing buttons...TIA

I guess I'm an idiot, because I can not figure this out for the life of me. Haha. And I've been starring at the instructions for a good half hour. So I'm on Step Number 2. It keeps talking about step2 folder? Where the hell is that? There is no step2 folder.

Step 2- WA2 Themes: From your computer, find your mobile device and navigate to \Program Files\Lakeridge\Wisbar Advance\Themes. You should see a few folders in there right now, but this is as far as we want to go, don’t click on them. Take the 2 folders out of our step2 folder and drag them to the Themes folder. It should warn you about merging the WADefault folders, just say okay and let it replace any files it tries to replace. Now on your phone, tap and hold the stylus to the top-left corner until a task panel comes up. Click settings, should be second to the bottom. Now you should see a list of themes there. Click on the iPhone theme and then click the checkmark at the bottom of the screen. It looks cluttered, lets clean it up. Click where it says “My Theme” in the top right, you can mess with general and start menu settings as you see fit, but I’m purely cosmetic here. Click Clock Settings and change Time Format to “h:mm tt”, click

I don't get it? Is there supposed to be a folder? I've browsed the Zip file in WinZip forever, and have not seen anything that would help me, so I would think.

Any help would be appreciated. Oh yeah, first post!


EDIT: Haha! So I answered my own question. I don't know if this was posted, but you need to browse the ZIP file in WinRAR, not WinZIP. In WinZIP is just seperates everything, and not into folders!

I got past the first step. Dont understand which 2 files im dragging to themes. Hard reset my phone like 3 times. God bless all you who have done it succesfully.

First of all - INCREDIBLE WORK! You have done a phenomenal job not only with making this, but also being available for support with it. You were exactly what I was looking for!

My question... seeing as how Slide2Unlock is great... but doesn't work well (caller ID, etc.) - what is the link/file that activates the original "Device Lock" on the PPC? I'm running WM6 on the Mogul. I would love to just change the Lock button on my screen to that. Ideas?

EDIT:
Also, I know this is not the "appropriate" forum for this, but I know you guys are smarter than most other forum-people I've run into, so I figured I would ask. I am trying to use a different SMS program. I was using Codyppc's Threaded SMS before I installed this theme. Does anyone have other (better?) suggestions. I'm also using PocketCM. If not... does anyone know what the path is for the file to run threaded SMS? I'm trying to set one of the buttons to it.

Thanks!
