Guest Richie M Posted October 18, 2003 Report Share Posted October 18, 2003 File Name :: Longhorn M5 Author :: Richie M Category :: Computer Description :: Features PC installer with sound, includes 2 versions of the Homescreen and a special version of Richie M's Alarm plug-in. Also, the Analog version of the _Homescreen includes Twyx's LCD _plug-in to display an Analog clock instead of the standard numeric clock. The system screens are included along with a nice WMP skin. Includes the Windows Longhorn Start Up Sound as well! Comments As you'd expect these are large multi-page screens, with the graphics "loosely" based on Longhorn M5. Check out the extremly cool MRU, with moving cursor and scroll-bar This was created before the ability to skin the Program Menu, Start-up and Shut-down screens was discovered, but this doesnt distract from a homescreen that was designed to and gives your phone that Windows feel. 4th in the series, and the best, and probably the largest Multi Screen Homescreen.

Guest lspatricio Posted October 19, 2003 Report Share Posted October 19, 2003 i downloaded this skin. tried it on my SPV but whenever i click on the action button while on the homescreen in order to go to the date/time setting, my phone hangs afterwards. I have to take the batt out to reset. I tried it several times... to no avail. Except for this, i have no other problem with this skin. What could have possibly gone wrong? :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bamboo Posted October 19, 2003 Report Share Posted October 19, 2003 If the alarm is not set, there will be a long message on the screen making it not so good. Any way, it is the best skin in my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nixy Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Richie..... I have to take my hat off to you. I dont know where you find the inspiration to put these skins together from scratch. I have installed and tried several windows themed designs but none come close. In my opionion though LM5 is the most acceptable and authentic looking skin that I have tried out on my E100. Any chance you could put a skin together in the theme of pocketpc. I know Randy Nivales has a pocketpc skin (DX_PPC?) but the shortcut menus dont work as the code relies on having the original Orange rom apparently . regards nixy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest liquid5170 Posted November 14, 2003 Report Share Posted November 14, 2003 nice graphix and installer... for sure.. but how the hell do you delete it? and second... it totally messed up my activesync.. it doesn't even recognize the phone!

Guest midnight Posted November 14, 2003 Report Share Posted November 14, 2003 i doubt very much that a skin messed up your activesync and no-one else has complained about it, so i'd check to see if the fault lies elsewhere :lol: oh and to delete it got to programs>settings>remove programs and select thskin to delete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Disco Stu Posted November 14, 2003 Report Share Posted November 14, 2003 Wonderful skin mate but the installer installed the Longhorn background to my PC in the process and then crashed the desktop ! :cry: Its an old Win98 machine that's falling apart and everything's back to normal after a restart. So.. uh... yeah... great ! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Richie M Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 Ugh sorry about the Stu, didnt test it on a Win98 machine ;) sorry. But at least you sorted it :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shodanjr_gr Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 Aparently, installing the skin, completely disabled active-synch of my SPV (the original one, using a Eurotel rom). Really like its look and feel though. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest roke Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 This may sound strange, but I can't seem to be able to download it. When I do, I only get an empty zipfile. However, I can download any other zipfile from this forum... Can someone perhaps mail the zipfile to [email protected] please? I would appreciate it!

Guest Richie M Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 Sorry chaps been away for while, so not had much chance to check in here :/ has anyone tried longhorn m5 on the e2oo and does it work okI believe you'll have problems with the custom plug-ins on a e200 - but graphically it should work. i have had it on my spv and i love it but it takes up too much physical mem is there another addition to this homescreen but thats smaller in size????? Â Unfortunately thats the draw back of multiscreens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest trewang Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 damn love this homescreen just a few things ive noticed (on my mpx200:) -t-mobile/roaming etc. overlaps with the time at the bottom -profile goes over the boundary of the start menu when set to automatic -slows down phone bootup by like 20 seconds :) is that normal but i love the design and the alarm part... nice work!

Guest bigmak Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 I just love that skin! But still I have a little problem with it I can't solve (cos I'm a newbie :D ) The second screen (watch and alarm) shows an error in the alarm part. It says "read registry problem". How can I fix that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Richie M Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 how can i install this thing on my storage card? You cant :? Well technically you can i think, but you would have to move all the graphic files and change their path in the xml file (but you will have to keep the xml file on the phone) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
