HTC Pure Style: Creative New Theme for Mobile Shell 3.5.1

Posted Image











“HTC Pure Style” is a cool new theme for Mobile Shell 3.5.1. This theme moves all the essential components of Mobile Shell to a vertical sidebar, much like Samsung’s TouchWiz UI with its widgets. The bar sticks to the left side on every screen within Mobile Shell, but the main lifestyle sliding panel system remains intact. This gives you the ability to customize your panels and have quick access to vital parts of the shell. Think of it as an expanded version of the default menu bar. It was created by the talented theme makers at MobileCustom, who also made the great Hero themes for MS3-3.5. Features and installation guide are listed below.

Bottom bar functions (left to right): carousel, favorite programs and edit menu.

Sidebar functions (top to bottom):

• Messages – the left corner houses your SMS, Email and missed calls. Clicking on them will take you to those areas of Mobile Shell. It's convenient because it displays your new message count at all times.
• Favorites – this links you to the familiar favorite contacts panel.
• Weather – clicking here will grant you access to the MS weather panel. Once there, tapping the bottom will switch between current conditions and the 5-day forecast.
• Home – the core of Mobile Shell and this theme. Hit this icon and you will always return to your lifestyle sliding panels.
• Launcher – leads you to SPB Menu/Launcher and is skinned with TouchFLO-like icons.
• Wireless/Profiles – change your phone profile, backlight setting and enable/disable wireless connections here.
• Agenda – appointments and calendar.
• Contacts –all of your contacts are displayed.

Installation: Make sure you update to the latest version of Mobile Shell, which is v3.5.1 RC. If you already have it installed, it's recommended to do a clean re-install. Next, download the HTC Pure Style CAB from MobileCustom (must register to access file), install and then soft reset. Unfortunately, the theme is only available for WVGA devices, but they’re currently working to expand it to VGA/QVGA/WQVGA.

However..

If you prefer not to have the side bar.. You can use the professional screen mode which does not have the side bar ..

When you press the launcher and contact button at the bottom of the screen , the side bar do appears..

so somesought of what you want...

of course, since for the moment only WVGA (480x800) version exists, and i900 is WQVGA (240x400)

Thanks to last two comments since I didn't mention it myself, yes, you HAVE TO Install it in Device only (Not on "MyStorage" or "Storage Card")

By the way, It consumes about 5MB memory, in case you were wondering! :D

This is a ram whore. You might as well run the stock Samsung interface. I went from 65 MB free to 32 MB after installing this. I didn't plan on using it really, just wanted to see the implementation. The other issue is that widgets can get stuck behind that left bar. It's a nice looking skin, but definitely not without issues/tradeoffs.

Well it looks as if there is a 2.0 out now. the site has a translator at the bottom of the screen.
This skin is a bit of a ram whore as mentioned, but I like it. Heres hoping the new theme is a bit better.

2.0 can be found here
