Notebook v1.0 Theme – Tester’s Invited

September 23rd, 2008 | 96 Comments | by Ani | Share

As you all know that Sehaj has been working on our very first theme called Notebook v1.0 which is still in alpha and I made an introductory post about it here, well I’m sorry for the delay in sending you out the theme file as we had encountered a major problem with it. (Apparently the .sis file had gone missing :-P ) So we remade the whole thing and now finally we are happy to send it out to you all. Please note the theme is still in alpha phase and we want you to help us by reporting us your feedback about it. (Only a handful of testers invited)

Following are a couple of screenshots of the latest stable release:

You can request the theme again by leaving comments below and we will provide you with it. The good news is that now It should work on all S60v3 devices and it also supports Feature Pack 2 transitions. Yes it will also work on Nokia N96. ;-)

Ciao

UPDATE: I just found the .sis file for the earlier theme ;-) . It was in the recycle bin. Don’t know how it got there…!

All tester themes to be dispatched on Friday 26th 2008 12:00 IST, so please comment below if you want to try. Cheers!

    Well, I’d love to try it, so you can e-mail me.
    But so we can give you a feedback, you need to tell us what is the point with this theme, what you did want to “express”; so we can give you a consistent feedback.


  2. Ani Says:

    hmm… good point Carlos,

    well, feedback = does it work in ur phone. things you want improved. any innovative things from ur end.

    well all are welcomed at this time… lol


  3. CHAPLIN Says:

  4. CHAPLIN Says:

    Rgrds, Martain


  6. David Says:

    Looks pretty cool. I’d love to test it out on my e51.


  7. Jin Thommen Says:

    Hello s60blog team,
    please add me to your list of testers.
    I could test the theme on an FP1 and an FP2 phone and would provide you screenshots, if necessary.

    Best wishes
    Jin


  8. Ravindra Says:

    Well done Sehaj,Hope you’ll keep it up.


  9. Ravindra Says:

    Well done Sehaj,Hope you’ll keep it up.Can test it on ma N95 8GB,N80,5700 and the N78………


  10. CHAPLIN Says:

    I’ve been testing it on my Nokia E65. I see that this is a very elegant theme, the colors were very well chosen, as well as the background image. The bad things is that, as it has clear colors (white), it takes more battery and the device runs slower also; and the s60 blog website on the background it is not that cute, just if it has the “S60″, and that’s all.
    But, as I said in the beginning, this is a very elegant and attractive theme (sometimes the simple things are the most attractive, and this is one of them), any picture as background looks well with that theme as a background too, and the logos are quite original.


  11. CHAPLIN Says:

    By the way, which software did you use to make this theme?


  12. CHAPLIN Says:

    Me again.. I was opening the Music Player and I saw that it missed the theme background, so you have forgotten to add the theme things into the Music Player background.


  13. Rio Sumartha Says:

    Hi,

    would like to try it. Please send it to my email.


  14. Micky Says:

    Looks tidy. I would like to try it out too if at all possible.

    Thanks in advance.

    Micky


  15. Tharindu Says:

    hey i can test it on my 5700:)


  16. Ani Says:

    Thank you for your interest everyone. I will email you the theme this Friday. Will look forward to your feedback and hopefully incorporate the changes you want. As for now I will not be sending any more testers, in essence i will let the theme public in the coming weeks with the help all the above testers.
    Till then cheers..! :-)
    Regards


  17. Raj Says:

    Please can you let me test the theme – looks great.

    Thanks

    Raj


  18. Alsiladka Says:

    Count me in. The icons look good for a nice change from the usual.

    Pre Beta Suggestion – Change the icons for the active standby calendar entries :)


  19. Manish Says:

    Hey guys…would love to try out the theme…please do send it if possible!

    Cheers
    Manish


  20. uamadei Says:

    Please, let me try this fine theme. Thanks


  21. Alsiladka Says:

    The icons look amazing!! A big kudos for getting the icons done this way!
    Although, a few of the specialized folders are still using the default nokia icons.
    The theme would go up to a completely different level if you manage to change all the icons possible on a phone. The unchanged icons on my E65 are -
    Media Folder
    Office Folder
    Installat. Folder
    Help Folder
    RealPlayer
    Flash Player
    Internet Tel.
    WLAN Wiz.
    Own Key
    Transfer
    Sett. Wizard
    Teams
    QuickOffice
    Adobe Reader
    Zip
    Download!

    Also, the icons in the Messaging application and the Calendar events icons have not been changed.

    Otherwise, till now it looks good.


  22. Ani Says:

    that was quick… thanx for the feedback alsiladka. we will work on the theme as a whole and when done you will go oolalaaa… ;-)

    hope u find more bugs and we sure will fix them..


  23. Alsiladka Says:

    The icon and animation while sending the Service Command are the default ones. Even if thse could be pencilised, there would be nothing like it ;)


  24. Jin Thommen Says:

    Thanks for the alpha version of this theme.
    IMHO, the pale yellow grid and list highlights are hard to see, especially when navigating through the menu very quickly.
    It would add a nice touch if you could change the colours of the digital clock from default blue to… hmmm… let’s say the dark red you used for the focused list frames or another matching colour.
    Th icons ROCK :-)


  25. Tharindu Says:

    Thanks for sending the alpha version of the theme:) well there are two stuff that needs changing. one is the top bar (where applications etc title bar is.) and 2nd is pop up menu when we push the light or right soft key i mean the background of it. :)
    thanks


  26. Alsiladka Says:

    One major flaw !!

    The Music player on my E65 has been completely overlooked! It shows up in the default Nokia blue theme. This is not the same music player has the Nseries phones, please update this too :)


  27. Alsiladka Says:

    Also, the Meeting, Todo, Reminder, Birthday icons on the standby screen are not the ones you have posted in this screenshot. They are the default ones.


  28. Ani Says:

    Thanks Alsiladka. Really liked your feedback


  29. Ani Says:

    Hi everyone, as you all know that we have started our very new forums to enable all you guys to share your thoughts more freely, so the further discussion for this theme will take place at the forums the link is below. hope to see you all there.
