For all the Xbox 360 fans, there's a new home screen that you'll want to take a look at.  The Xbox 360 Blades home screen is the work of "Fragmaster B" and requires Facade.  It also looks like our friend and home screen master - prosper, helped in the creation of this cool new home screen.  It's really nice looking and can work on just about any Windows Mobile Smartphone (Standard) device.  Just make sure you're device screen is landscape and you have Facade.

Wow!

That is really nice eye candy, and I don't even have an XBox 360!

I think I'll download and give it a try.

That's so cool.

This looks cool, I will have to try it out. Is Facade a free download? If anyone can post a lazy link to get Facade it would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi Snowman5373

Unfortunately Facade is not a free download, but you can read more about it and download a 12 day free trial version from our web-site at the following URL:

I hope that this information is helpful

Snowman, Facade is worth every penny for Windows Mobile Standard. I've been using it for the last 6 - 8 months and it is what I call a "Must-have app" for your phone.

I wrote a review about it here:

It is worth it and, while I've downloaded the XBox 360 theme, I haven't had the chance to install it yet but I am looking forward to giving it a spin.

Neat, I'll have to try this out

I've just installed this on my Q9h (also have Facade) but all I get are the static elements from each blade, although there are no 'blades' showing, and just a blank background. Admittedly, I'm a Facade newb, but what should I be tweaking to get my screen to look vaguely like what's represented in the post.
Thanks in advance

I found the instructions are a little misleading. It says copy the *.xml and the "xbox blade files" into the \Application Data\Home folder on your device. That's not exactly correct. You'll want to copy the XML file and the xbox FOLDER into that folder on your device. Otherwise the home screen won't find the files it's looking for and you'll end up with a blank looking screen like you're seeing now.

Try that and let us know how it works out for you.
