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:

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.

Change crappy TouchFlo 'blocks' bacground

Hey guys, lots of great packages here but the one thing I really want to change/get rid off is those crappy blocks which are used in the touch flow background.
You know the ones, the crappy ones which fade into the horizon that look like something from Tron
They look terrible and it seems you can only replace the home area with a background image.
Do any of the packages here allow you to change this?

guess the only way to do that is to change the theme using touch flo 3d config

anyone have a solution for this. as much as i like the blocks i want to change me to the same wall paper as my home page.

Please, i want to change that ugly wallpaper too... Touch flow 3d config "themes change" don't work for that.

I agree. Since ive changed to the Official HTC WWE 1.93 rom with .5 radio (better signal now, thanks for that!) I cannot change the background at all. In SETTINGS and TODAY the background image has been selected by clicking on BROWSE yet nothing is displayed.

You CAN change the Wallpaper on the homescreen by SLIDING to the SETTINGS Tab on the TF3D.
There is an option Wallpaper. This will change the Wallpaper on the HOMESCREEN only (unfortunately) and not on the other tabs
The BACK GROUND with in the Settings and Today menu doesn't apply to the wallpaper.
All the best.

and you can get a few wallpapers from here

I have changed the home page wallpaper. This thread referes to the Blocks on the other pages. I want them to be the same as the home page.

Happy to help.

I find it hard to believe no one has made an app to make the wallpaper apply to all tabs....why did HTC make it like this? Weird....

Im suprised as well. Changing the home page is nice, but i would like the rest of my tabs to look ince too.

still nothing?

can this really be that complex?

Have patience. There are people who are preparing Manilla editors.

Just because you have no clue about how to do this doesn't meant it's a good idea to insult peoples intelligence by implying its simple and they should have done it already. The reason it's not been done yet is not because theres no want, but because devs must first understand fully how Manilla operates, it's not exactly documented in a nice fancy API.

Weird Start Menu

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone can help me out, I have made a few mods to my HTC Diamond, and everything has been cool, until I ran SBP screenshot, after running it, it stuffed up my start menu to look like the following....
http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/screen04hv8.png/1/w480.png[/
I did just have the standard black startmenu, small icons, with white text, and now look
:eek:
Its white on white with large icons, did a soft reset and still no good.
Please help me!!

Maybe go to Settings/Today and select another theme, click OK, return to Settings/Today and choose HTC Black again.
Hope this helps.

Hmmm, yeah I already tried that and no luck, it looks the same no matter which theme I have

try to change your font and font size back to normal

Decrease your font size or switch the classic "small" Start Menu

Thanks Guys!! I had to uninstall the font, it was fine after that.
I tried re-sizing it and it didnt do anything. I will try re-installing it and see how I go.
Thanks again

[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
HTC TOPAZ (Touch Diamond 2)
NhatHoa ROM 6.5.3.11.3 NLD 28-01-2010

I tried it on the stock 6.1 sprint tf3d and it didnt change the home screen but changed all the other screens to black. I just want the home screen changed black because we have a photo on there and you cant see the white text. all the other screens I want to stay white...

Contact name font size in status screen?!

The contact name font size in the status Screen (when calling) suddenly became big & long names do not fit anymore. The font size was normal before and I have no idea what is exactly the problem. Anyone with the same issue? Any solutions?
Thanks

I have the same problem.... Ideas what could have caused this issue.

Actually, I didn’t install any new programs recently (from 2 months) and the problem appeared suddenly. That’s why it is very hard to link this problem to a software installed. Any ideas guyz?
Thanks

Bump..
This also happened to me when the device accidently hard reset
any ideas? Bruce?
thanks

Is it just in the dialer?
Are you on stock or custom ROM?
Have you played with the Font settings in Settings Tab\Personalize\Font?

It is just in the dialer as far as I can tell, it was in the drop down task list as well but then I changed a setting that made it smaller.
Yes, I have changed the font size under personalize
Stock ROM
thanks

The only thing different I did was run a value added installer that installed arabic and did a hard reset..
I looked around all over the registry and can't find anything. Any help would be appreciated!

My only suggestion would be to install a different dialer.
I too was unable to locate any font settings in the reg for the dialer. Sorry.

I was able to find the font for the call list, managed to make that smaller and play with the font however the in call screen I could not get to change.
2 questions:
Could you tell me the name in your registry for the default font for generally everything, is it helvectica neue ots or something like that? Should be under software/htc/smartdial (can't remember if it was local_machine or current_user.. left phone at the office so can't check)
I tried to download a dialer that is supposedly to the original topaz dialer however all it did was change my battery icon and the data symbol (G, 3g, E, H, etc), could you point me in the direction of the oem topaz dialer?
Thanks so much for your help

First install this dialer, if your font is still messed up I have included the reg setting you asked for.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\PHONE\SmartDial]
"ClrMainText"=dword:00000000
"ClrMainText_Sel"=dword:00ffffff
"ClrMatchBkd"=dword:00666666
"ClrMatchBkd_Sel"=dword:00ffffff
"ClrMatchText"=dword:00ffffff
"ClrMatchText_Sel"=dword:00666666
"ClrSubText"=dword:00333333
"ClrSubText_Sel"=dword:00ffffff
"FontFaceName"="Helvetica Neue OTS"
"FontSizeL"=dword:00000024
"FontSizeM"=dword:00000018
"FontSizeS"=dword:00000014
"FrameLineColor"=dword:00c8c8c8
"SpeedDialTextColor"=dword:00c8c8c8
"TalkTickCount"=dword:00001000

The smart dialer cab is the font settings in the registry.
No need to install, it was specific for ice2x01.

Should I just try installing the smart dialer cab then?
I appreciate all your help Bruce!
