HTC Touch Diamond Theme~

06/16/2008

The long awaiting HTC Touch Diamond is already launched in Malaysia few weeks ago. To those who can’t afford to purchase this new PDA phone, or maybe you want to test out how the interface really looks like, you can try installing this theme to your PDA phone. Frankly speaking, this theme can actually amaze the people around you!  😆

Let me present to you, the copycat version of HTC Touch Diamond TouchFlo 3D theme~ This is how it looks like on your PDA phone.

Of course, this theme is not as perfect as the original TouchFlo 3D on the Touch Diamond. There’s only 5 tabs available for the bottom bar and the 3D animations is not exactly the same as the original ones. Still, it looks really cool on your phone. Mind you that the time on the first screen won’t flip as the original ones  😆

How to install this theme?

  1. Download and install SPB Mobile Shell 2.1 into your PDA.
  2. Download and install the HTC Touch Diamond theme.
  3. Soft reset your phone and enjoy!

Make sure you watch the video on how SPB Mobile Shell works in SPB website as there are a lot of functions that you can use with this theme. For example, if you move your stylus or finger on the screen, the screen will actually flips to another screen with different views.

The theme comes in black by default. You need to download the color theme here. Follow the instructions given and you’ll be able to change the color to the ones you like!

Enjoy!

    hmm.. did you install the SPB mobile shell, then install the theme and soft reset after that? The Diamond screen will not show on the Today screen, instead it is something like an alternative today screen. You can check out the SPB mobile shell for more details.

    Awesome… I installed it on my HTC Cruise. My colleague was boasting with his Diamond interface but complaining about the lack of memory extension… Now, I have it all !

    One small problem… If one entered a contact in the wrong directory (i.e. in Personal instead of Business), how does it work to remove it ?

    I agree with you, this theme probably would impress people around you. If you think the iphone impresses people, this is like the iPhone but a x10 interface, when the iphones interface is already nice! I’m trying to find a way to get it on my itouch right now.

    Is this the Manilla 2D? I think it will only work for pocket PC phones. I’d love to try it on my Omnia but maybe when I get tired of the Samsung widgets homescreen. :mrgreen:

    Trying this on a Treo 800w. I keep getting the blank screen after spb install > diamond theme install > soft reset. I know this works, I’ve ssen it on youtube. What am I doing wrong? I followed the directions. Why am I getting this blank screen?

    That’s awesome, the theme suits my HTC Touch Diamond well, i love it, and the TouchFLO 3D technology is brilliant, with it i can say goodbye to the dull drop-and down menu, great. By the way, i don’t like the fact that the Diamond is prone to fingerprint which is really frustrated for me.

  • Calendar color
    12/30/2009 at 9:29 am Reply

    I would like to change the color settings for the calendar (just the calendar) I would like to view it in white with black letters instead of the default black with white letters.

    Is this possible? I find it easier to see the appointments in my old PALM tungsten E and in the HTC DIamond touch 2 this is only possible when clicking on a certain appointment but not in the general view of the day or month.
    Many thanks
