Windows Mobile can look like the iPhone


We all want to get our hands on the Apple iPhone and quite honestly I am! Well the guys over at XDA Developers have done a nice job modding the today screen (btw which has been done for many other phones). I am very excited about this since it is the closest I can come to have something that looks like the iPhone (yes I know it doesn't do what the iPhone does)..



Whats Needeed?
- top = cLaunch
- bottom = phoneAlarm

btw: the phoneAlarm is not really very practical in this manner.

Attached:
- Ripped icons 32 x 32.
- phoneAlarm skin

FAQ
[1] How do I use the 32x32 icons?!
Those 32x32 icons are meant to be used with cLaunch. Read this thread on how to use this cLaunch. Thanks decknologist, for the tutorial. The icons spacing settings are

Icon size: 32
Icon name width: 46
Icon name heught: 12
Icon margins: Horizontal= 5, Vertical= 10
Windwos margin: Left= 8, Right= 0, Top=0, Bottom= 0.

[1b] Why dont your post a cLaunch skin?
It is difficult to send a cLaunch skin, consider the different location one may put their icons files (eg in the SD card or main memory). Unless someone is going to make a CAB file for it. (Ok, I will try to come out with this later)

[1b] Where can I get it?
You can visit here

[2] How do I make the black theme? I have grey bars instead.
The black theme and all instructions are available here.

[3] The clock is dull
A new version with larger screen and dynamic clock and calendar is available here, using VJ's todaytoggle and Rotlaus's rlToday

[4] Why can't I push the bottom bar to hit the bottom?
Some of the phone may have those icons on the system tray. I'm not sure, but thallanor seems to have the problem and he has solved the problem

[5] I can get the carbon fiber skin to work on phoneAlarm?
thallanor solved that problem too

[n] Still have problems ..
Direct your question to this thread instead.

you are right the xdaii does not what the iphone does. It does a lot more, and even more ot has thousands of apps that the Iphone doesn't have. Only the desktop is a good idea!
Cute. #ut the way its not the same now, is it? Reminds mr of that mp3 player for wm that looked like an iPod. It wasn't very good.
