i just want to say i have pulled the real LH theme files from 4051 , 4053, and 4074, and they do not... repeat DO NOT work in windows XP. i am not a professor or a professional w/e person. but i have done this through Virtual PC and copied well transfered the files to my own HD and thinking it would work and no it does not... so for those people who have been staying they are fake. yes they are. a reason why the real lh theme files wont work cuz xp and longhorn are different versions. thank you for ur time reading this and thx for fake themes. oh and one more thing that will back me up is i am using the patched uxtheme.dll.

WindowsX, I don't know how you can do this! lou_dude888 is distributing a package of your work. He didn't even ask permission to do it! I can maybe understand no legal actions since this work is mostly from MS. But respect must be given for unofficial work, and therefore credits are due. Trying to give him respect when he doesn't respect you back is crazy! :cry:

People, why so nasty to Lou? This person obviously really thought these were authentic Longhorn themes, and didn't claim to have created them himself, so why the cruelty?

Sure, Lou's acting a bit stubborn on the issue, but you don't all have to be jerks about it. Show this person a little decency, as Lou's obviously been misled as to where the themes came from.

hahah. everyone on that forum loves him. and he's playing the victim, saying how cruel we are here.

and windows x, thanks for putting out such quality work. keep it up!

Well, Lou might have been mistaken, but the majority of posts on here aren't exactly courteous, immature is more accurate. As Cerebral said, props to Windows X for being the gentleman.

Cerebral: We're not intentionally trying to be rude/mean/nasty to Lou. If he genuinely believed they were authentic Longhorn themes, that is okay. But preaching on and on about how they are authentic and his Innovative award this and that really doesn't cut it. Especially when there is substantial evidence or facts disproving his claim. If he keeps sending false information, there will be hundreds of misled and misinformed sheep running amok. That is not what we want. Lou also has to realize people make mistakes! It's human nature. But going to another forum and bitching about how Neowin people are ###### especially when he is incorrect doesn't help anyone.

Just trying to clarify the situation, not trying to start wars.

Over on Aqua-Soft (that "other forum"), we've already clarified and settled the matter. No insults or mocking was necessary.

Sorry. I just talked to him. Dr. K had Jim remove Longhorn from his computer, to use on another, and so since then, Jimmy has emulated Longhorn, using these themes. Honest to God. My appologies to go Neowin, Aqua-Soft, and personally Windows X.

Again I appologize.

Yaaa.... Lou, he's just 15 years old (Although I'm 17 :D) But he didn't do something too bad at all.It's just misunderstanding. I think it would be OK if he accepted in it. But he didn't, still dumb and never know about Longhorn at all. However, he believed in my works with faith that makes he blinds from the truth. This guy is poor that he has been cheated by his friend about lying. But it's too late to open his eyes.....

Well. All clear so this story should be over.

There's one thing I got from this topic. I've just realized that my themes are so coooool! (Never know about it before because only few person replied my post)

:no: Any experienced fool knows Real Longhorn themes wont work on xp.Look at the tool bar in LH,notice a difference? Doh!

Sure it a msstyle,but not the same as xp.

I have all the copies of LH alphas right here,so I know first hand.Tried it when slate first came out.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
