Customisation idea (I'm asking for help/pointers as to how to do this)

I've not really liked the pink/purple of the T-Mobile comm manager icons, so I installed duttythroy's 10 button one.
I really like the simplicity of the of these icons, and the blue is my fave color.
What I want to do is change as much of the graphics as possible (home screen, dialer screen and others) to be the same style as the comm manager.
Any ideas of how to do this?

Any help ?

Check out Schaps Rom for Hermes.... in one release you will find the necessary cabs for comm manager, audio manager, htc home and so on... as well as schaps black theme. give it a try - dont forget to make a backup.

If you look in the \windows folder you will find all the .png files you are looking for they are HH_*.png and L_*.png and #.png If you edit them and change them around and put them back into the \windows dir on your phone they will change the appearance
Take a look here I have done some http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335652

Nice icons
I have almost got it like I want it.
The only problem is the Home background.
I have PaintShopPro 7 and I have created some backgrounds, but when I use start> settings> home to select the background they get displayed very pixellated and as if the brightness has been turned up very high on the image.
I have tried several file formats for them as well.
I've got installed:
HTChome customizer
duttythroy WMP touch skin
Sharkey48 Softkey Changer
jizy HTC Action Screen
RC Mod v.2.1 by o3blig
Deathace MDA Vario III de-Brand
ScaryBear Software QuickTasks (reports database not available dialogue, then shows as it should on homescreen)
Resco (explorer, photo viewer pro, registry editor)
AE Software AE Button Plus
lokmeup IE Slow Scroll Fix
Windows Live 10.6.33.0600 (which only shows the loading for less than a second and does nothing)

try using the built in photo viewer app to set the today screen wallpaper. Make sure to select 0% for the transparency.

Yep...
That's sorted it

htc plus! v2.0 b28938 - today plugin

nice customizable today plugin htc plus! with clock, msg, and quick link.. you can use just time and msg, or quick link or together.
just install and soft reset. enjoy
credits goes to "unknown"

I like this, but not work on my M700 WM6.
EMERSON VIER

Works on my Artemis but the screen rotation link doesn't work.

That's why it's an HTC program. Why don't you use SPB Mobile Shell which is just the same?!?!?

very nice
works soo great on my kaiser
really appreciate it,thanks the guy from pxdxa~~
and i have a question:
i install your attachment,and just have the clock and msg,no green icons~
the green icons on your screen(the quick links?) are htchomeplug, right?

yep, you need to go to the settings - today - and there is one more tab - plus! - where you can setup what you will see or not. just setup it here

It's interesting, very minimalist compared to the HTC Home. I wish they would have added Tab support as in the Home plugin, so we could switch to contact photodialing, quick launch etc.
The existing quick launch along the bottom is nice, especially being able to add any program to it (and drag icons to re-arange their order). But it's only one line, having to click on an arrow to scroll through them. Expanding it to display more lines, or perhaps even the entire screen (if needed) would have been nice.
I'll be sticking with HTCHome for now, maybe use Plus! to add 1 row of quicklaunch icons and not display the clock/mesage indicators.

(unless I am misunderstanding what this app does):
Just to let you guys know, your Kaisers should already be pre-installed with the Quicklaunch icons (with one additional for backlight) prior to installing this app. Go to "settings>today>items". Look through the list and check the box next to "HTCHomeplug" (Not htc home). The only difference is the icons aren't green.

ee, i do not agree. thchomeplug is someting different from this. icons are smaller then on quicklink and you can not customize it..

disagree

you can customize htchomeplug search for either the thread started by me or search for registry under kaiser upgrading and you can customize the new htc tray app using the same registry keys

yep, already found that and it was posted HERE

the problem that i find with this home plug in is that the quick link to the txt, mms and e-mail are all liked to the same main page of Messages, not individually like the htc home plugin v.2... can you fiz that issue, or can any one fix that??

How to change the digital clock color - HTC home screen

Yes, I did a search... even saw some screen caps of the Clock in Red...
Thanks in advance for the help.

You need the HTC Home Customizer

I used http://www.pocketemu.com/hhc-info.html, a good tool and a lot of choice. Hope it helps

Thanks
HUGE help... Thanks Guys!

You can not resize the clock...not even with HTC Home Customizer. You can only change the font style and color

themes?
Home Customizer works great... except the program bombs out if you try to change the themes.... anyone else get this error?
Also, I tried the "Wamu's Matrix" clock and it changed my Email, Txt and Callers icon's ... and cant seem to get them back to the original (I will have to destroy this phone if there's a Neo/Keanu icon on it!)

I downloaded and installed the HTC Home Customizer played with changed a few things but nothing works nothing changes, am I missing something ? do I need to install anything else ?

How to change the touch flo 3D theme?

As a title... I can't find any possibility to change my default them for the touch 3D. Anyone can help me?
Thanks

Me too
I like to change the color of the touchflo theme to black (from o2 xda blue). How to do that? Any ideas?
Tx.

I second that.
All the files are in die "Windows"-folder.

i can tell how to change back ground... go to settings from touch flo then wallpaper.. select any pic.

I found the ugly blue background branded by O2 in the WINDOWS directory (at least I think it is that one): \WINDOWS\stBackImage.png
However TotalCommander states that it is in the ROM and I can't seem to modify it in any way. This is where some more WM6 experienced people would be needed to tell me how to modify these files?
Thanks,
Alex
Edit:
Does anyone have the original background at hand?
An alternative approach I tried: I looked for the filename in the registry, but can't seem to find it.

This is exactly what I was afraid of, as soon as I saw that awful Magenta T Mobile version of the diamond

Well the blue-ish O2 theme is something i COULD live with - it's not THAT ugly - but then again: I wish I wouldn't have to

you can create a file with the same name and extension on you're desktop
eddit it with any paint progam and save it,
Now you can try to copie it and overwrite it on you're device...
it works for me, if not for you, you have to wait until some has unlocked the rom files
greets LuXa

nope, activesync tells me that the drive is either read-only or the file is write-protected...

I would also LOVE to know how to change ALL the backgrounds in touch flo 3D.

I managed to overwrite this file - without success... it doesn't seem to be the right file...
I can't find any other file that looks like the touchflo 3d background - unfortunately...
has anyone found other files that could be the right ones?

for all germans who want the touchFLO 3d in black:
http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showthread.php?t=131693
it works perfectly on my diamond

why not simply reflash with another rom? as far as I know all cooked roms contain the standard (black) version of TF3D...

because this is not what I want...
although black is prettier than blue the o2 theme looks better (icons, no green borders etc)
I just want to change the background image of tf3d on all pages...

There are already a number of threads with this request.
See:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401324
There was another thread where l3v5y was discussing which files were the graphics in TouchFLO 3D, but I can't find it now.
Also, ideally, some one would make a customizer that was extensible enough to change theme designs for a wider range of applications. See this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392184

try this one
(if you are not "en-us", you should edit the file 590ad244_manila without forgetting to change the lang id)

what is this? or what does it do? does it completely replace tf3d or just the background?
btw: is there an overview over all *_manila files?

Exactly just the first background, that makes it pretty useless.
I can't imagine why HTC were that braindead they didn't include such a feature.

[THE] Manila Tabs Font Colors

I went through a lot of themes and pulled the FONT files!
Have fun!!
Special thanks to NisseDILLIGAF and this post for showing me the files.

Hope you don't mind I made a cab for the black and white to be able to uninstall easier
I haven't tested them yet, so let me know if there is a problem.

any way to get blue cabbed up as well?

Post #2 UPDATED

thank you!

does this work for all the tabs?

Hello,
I've try the cab files.
I put the file in the internal storage, i execute the cab, i insall in the device.
I do a soft reset, and there is nothing to change.
I've try with the 3 cab files.
Can you help me ?
thank you

Has anyone preview pictures?
I need a cab file only for the home tab, because there I change the wallpaper, so I need to change the font color.
-> the 77faa36d_manila only changes alarm font in Home tab and font Settings Tab. What is with "Calendar, Call History ..." in Home Tab?

For me, when i execute the cab ,it isn't change home tab for the text "calls","calendar", this text is white again so that i execute black cab file.
But for example when i go to message tab, the text messages are black.
i want that the text on home tab change also.

The cab changes the text in all the other screens except the Home screen. For some reason, on the contacts screen, all the text disappeared when I was using the blueish font cab. I just uninstalled it and reinstalled Manila once again. My phone doesn't like most of these cabs because my Manila always gets messed up and I end up spending the next 20mins or so uninstalling/reinstalling to get my flip clock back.
I wish there was a cab that was more (for lack of a better term) 'hotswappable' so I could change things on the fly... without uninstalling/reinstalling. You know, just go into the specific program, select what font color I want to use, hit apply (or something) and viola! I'm done and back to other things.

strongly that it is possible to have a cab file that allow to change color text Home screen because i can't to put the wallpaper that i want.
I wait with impatience.

In installed the black font cab and everything worked except for the calender tab. And for some reason my weather tab just said text at the top and didnt show any weather. So i uninstalled the cab and weather was back and the font stayed black. So my only question is how to i default my font color back when i decide to change my background to a dark color and want the white and grey default?
I have the white font cab for a back up incase but if anyone knows that would be awesome.

I got the same problem with the cabs. I installed the white cab and the weather was gone. I removed it and it was back. Also, when installed my icons under the contact person picture (such as the home, send sms, office, short cuts are gone) Thanks.

The font on some tabs is changed but TF3D keep crashing, tabs aren't loading and the soft keys are getting stuck after going on tabs.
Thanks anyway but its just not working for me
Thanks, Chris

I totally agree with you.
Anyway, could you guys make a red color. please......
Is there a way to make the background for all the icons for TF3D the same like the home screen

Guys, did you succeed with changing home screen font? I need all the text (or at least the appointment details) to turn white. Is that possible?

This doen't work with manila 2.1.
I managed to change some text in some of the manila files but it's hard to find the right files to change...

does anybody know why these fonts are not working?
or can anybody tall me where to get these manila 2.5 files in multiple colors?
I've tried to above 3 cabs, these did not work after installing and softreset
also replacing the manila files itself did not do anything at all
Thanks a lot
