Okay.. I am normally pretty good with stuff like this but after 6 hours of trying I have found this site.
I have downloaded the programmes but none seem to leave me able to change the theme on my diamond. It will change the top and bottom bar but the home screen will not change.
Can someone please email me or spell out for me on here in simple terms how too.. as I seem to be having a really blonde day...
oh also looking for some Subaru themes thanks.
and sorry in advance if this is in the wrong place.
If you want to change ONLY the home screen back ground.. then use the wallpaper option instead.
SLIDE to Settings option from the homescreen and you will see WALLPAPER as one of the options.
Tap on that.
If you want to change the entire THEME.. here is how it is done:

Hope this helps.
About the Subaru themes... errr... I would suggest just putting up a wallpaper.
Might just take a while for someone to come up with a Subaru theme.
All the best
hi,
I found a theme it says is for my phone but unless I disable the touchflo 3D It doesnt show how its meant to.
In fact I tried for 4 hours to change my whole theme to the vodaphone red one without success... so HELP!!
Okay... I still can not make this work. when I try to run the tf3d config file all I get is the opera opening up and thats it?
Any help would be appreciated. I have took everything off and reinstalled it and it still does the same.
I was reading around through the forums and found that you need to use Manila to edit a file "4a087e41_manila" to change the background on the home screen and all the others. Well I did this and it has yet to change anything...
Any advice?
i was able to change the home wallpaper by going to the settings tap and going to wallpaper....go figure...lol
but I still want to change all the other tabs to have the same background as I am using on my home screen.
anyone?
there's a cab that will do that
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=121510&d=1223945516
well the above cab worked great, put my background on all pages, but then also set my clock to 12:59, the date to Jan 1 2008 and set my network to T-Mobile....lol (im with AT&T)
I will mess around with it and see what I can do
ok so I think i got it now.

I went there and used nisse's zip files, then I used manila editor to change the image, the trick is that the image you replace in the files that you download from nisse HAVE to be the same size, exactly 256x256.
But the only problem now is that the picture has gone over my home screen, all i have is the background there, but its only for my home tab. I may try to load a different clock and see what happens.
All i need to do now is figure out how to change what the buttons lok like in landscape mode and I will be golden
Hi,
I want to get the background of the golden theme. I searched really a lot. I manage to change background for all tabs. In settings on today I tried too, but it isn't working. I get an image on the startup, but it isn't looking like the original image... pls help. I tried to edit in manila editor to change the image, but I get an error. Everything is looking good of the golden theme, except this background is driving me nuts. nobody seems to have this problem, am I really just stupid??
here you go.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2968109&postcount=168:)
use this method,. it works every time and you don't have to have 256x256, its 512x512.
Well the cab. works greate but the slider goes to left and the clock has goten white from incolor... have you got an answer to this too?
Thanks!
I have Manila 2D working quite well on my kaiser... The only problem is the clock. Whenever I try to put a new clock/theme on the home tab and I take off the analog clock with M2DC, my digital clock stacks the numbers ontop of one another on the right-hand side of my phone. Anyone know why this keeps happening to me?
Same Issue
My clock is doing the same thing. When i remove the analog clock from the Home XML tab in M2D Customizer, my clock goes off to the far right hand side of the s creen? Is this an issue with manila 2d or is the customizer not working properly?
*Attempting to hard reset device right now...*
Updated Screenshot
Heres a picture of my problem
I have encountered the same problem before. Make sure that you have the most current version of M2DC (easily done using AppToDate). This solved my clock problem. Another problem is witht he two page weather... The layout gets jacked up if you change themes, requiring either editing of the xml or hard resetting to correct the problem. In either event, editing the xml was the choice I went with.
I had the same problem last week after using one of the manila customiser..
in the end had to do hard reset.
maybe I should have reinstall Manila?
but I can't see Manila when I tried to remove programs.
updating the version of M2DC helped my problem as well. I did not reinstall M2D to a different version, just a hard reset, and it was fixed.
Same Issue
It's kind of redundant when you have to hard reset to fix something so simple. It's like the M2D customizer does this on purpose. I have this awsome clock that I found as a cab file that replaced the origional clock in Manilla 2D. I have the mose update Manilla 2d customizer per this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392
and the latest version of Manila 2D from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425851.
Heres how it goes.... I can hard reset my device, and install the manila cab. I can then install the Manilla 2D customizer and loadthe theme that I made.. I will then install the cab file for the Clock that I like. It works great... As soon as I change to another theme, It goes all hay wire. I dont that much care for the analog clock and wish there was a way to disable it completely.
I guess it's the small thing that drive me crazy
I got the same problem in my Jade.
Without solution yet?

You need to change the registry settings back to the theme file settings after you disable the analog clock.

I dont think its due to m2dc, i have been flashing alot of ROMs and have found the newer builds seem to be the problem, not sure why? You can untick the analog and copy over the theme .xml with total commander and soft-reset but then you still have the alarm etc, you can edit out the unwanted in the .xml and there is a thread about this.
M2DC clock messed up
Folks,
same problem for me and Ihave found a workaround:
even with manilla 2d cooked in I install the following cab after having
installed m2dc and a corr. theme:
SJ 2DManila 1_00_18203328_00.cab
The installation will be unsuccesful but anyway, after a softreset the clock
is displayed in correct manner. Hope that helps.
Happened to me the other day, I figured I just did something wrong. I did a hard reset and changed to a different theme, and didn't have that problem, weird. Curious what would cause this.
According to M2DC's site, this problem was resolved and was a known issue. As of the Jan 30 release it was resolved according to the developer. Are you SURE you have the newest version ?
Its Right Here....Check against your Version
Hope this helps
ALSO,
What I did was backup the OEM Manilla theme using M2DC with the older version so I was able to restore it later....worked well as I was experimenting skins No need to hard reset
This registry setting did the trick for me:

CFC compressed version is available now! Thanks to Chainfire for that. What's CFC? Its a compression method for the tf3d image files that greatly reduces file size. The CFC cab and zip below also included a modified manila.exe and mode9.dll necessary for the cfc compressed files along with two other dlls and ALL manila image files compressed. CFC compression allows for quicker tf3d. The cab uninstalls the modified files if you don't like it. Standard version is still available for download as well below.
I've been working on making a blue base theme to use with different backgrounds. Except for backgrounds, I've modified or created all the image files that have changed from the ROMeOS base I started with(some are unchanged). I changed the clock to a transparent blue glass and the unselected icons are semi-transparent so that the background can be viewed through all. I've added the active clock and calendar icons for preview and selected views. Tabs that are enabled by default:
Home
People
Calendar
Messages
Email
Album
Music
Internet
Settings
Comm. Mgr
Call History
Programs
Weather
Sounds
I included 10 wallpapers in cab and zip file.

2. Navigate to cab file and click/run it.
3. Re-enable touchflo3d in phone Settings\Today\Items
4. Go to touchflo3d Settings page and choose wallpaper. Wallpaper are installed into My Documents\Wallpaper.
To Uninstall:
1. Disable touchflo3d in phone Settings\Today\Items
2. Go to phone Settings\System\Remove Programs and remove the cab file.
3. Re-enable touchflo3d in phone Settings\Today\Items

I'm working on some more interesting mods for the different panels, check next post
Here's a couple of screenshots of upcoming updates, first pic shows modded titlebar line by removing the carrier name and moving date to center. I enlarged the date, made it bold font, and increased font size. I also removed the callhistory and calendar parts since I don't use those. Second pic shows expanded email paper I'm working on, I like to see more of a preview than through the slit of the envelope. I also changed the text color to white on blue paper. The third pic I only increased font size of month and made it bold so it stood out a little more. I also enlarged all the selected icons in the tab bar, never made sense to me why it would be smaller than unselected icons.

WOw, u really got something going here! I love blue themes so much more over black. This clock would be awesome if also made transparent while keeping the blue accent to it! I usually put up annik nayler or mariza prince as my wallpaper but using this theme along with my wallpaper and this clock being transparent would be perfect!

After I installed it, I moved to the programs tab and it locked up the tabs. Any ideas?
havent really been around and all with moving cross country .. but daaaaaamn this is DOPE i knew ud come thru sooner or later!
kudos SHOWACO!
man, looks awesome showaco!! thanks a lot and i got my new theme
Hello there! Great theme I really like it.
I have run into some issues though whilst running this theme.
I installed it as detailed above and everything went well, every tab seems to work, and if I go to the Call History tab it works, but when I leave the Call History tab and return to any other tab, be it Home or Weather (for example) the entire TF3D seems to freeze up for a length of time and then it will finally go to the other tab (weather or home) a few minutes later. I will make and post up a video as an example!
Very interesting :-\!
Thanks!
Kewlj1313
the tabs are clear and on some screens it's hard to see because of the background image like in programs or internet tabs. Is there a way to make it so you can't see through the tabs?
Also, for the internet theres a lot of tabs that I don't use, how can I edit the list to remove the ones I don't use?
Thanks....btw when I first installed it I got hang ups too, but I did a soft reset and it's good now.

Sorry it goes kinda fast, for some reason mymobiler recorded it faster than i was actually moving, but you can see in the end how after going to contacts the Home tab doesn't load and i can't switch tabs after this has happend, requires a restart :-\
Thx!

Yeah, I see what you mean. I'm not sure what is causing it. It happened to me on the Sounds tab, thats why I removed that tab. You can disable tf3d in today settings and then re-enable to restart tf3d without having to reboot. I'll try to figure it out, as it has to be some of the icons I made somewhere. It will probably take a little bit, as there are 183 files to go thru and I'll have to compare them to originals to make sure of whats what. Give me a couple of days

You can remove internet favorites bookmarks by opening opera and removing them from there since it reads bookmarks for internet tab from opera's bookmarks.
hey showaco. i have one bug. on the sms tab, when i hit menu, it doesnt bring up the list with new, reply, etc. i used manila customizer to install the theme, so not sure if that caused the concern. i just really try to stay away from the cab installs as theyre usually a pain to remove no biggie, just wanted to report and see if i was the only one. thanks again

Hi! I had typed up a list of things the other day with what i found, one of them is now listed, (the problem w/ going to call history and not being able to move to a new tab) but aparently it never made it here.. *go figure*
2 other things i've noticed with it, the tabs are in a different order and I can't seem to figure out how to remove/change the order. (not really a "problem" but yea..) and on some tabs, like Settings, and Programs(Internet, etc) the options on them over lap with the buttons at the bottom.. also just noticed, that the SMS tab, it likes to crash when you hit the "menu" button, or just does nothing. I see that someone else was having the same issue, but installed it differently, but it doesn't look like that's the cause since i installed it per your directions (tho I did let it restart when it asked me to)
Great work on it BTW.. Oh one last question, how did you get the clock to go transparent on the main page? I cant seem to get it to do anything.
TIA
Nice theme! I'll be using this one for a while.
I had a quick question, how can you see the background picture on all the different screens? On my phone the background image only shows on the today screen

To change tab order, you can use either Advanced Configuration or TF3D Configurator. The overlap is only seen because I made tab bar transparent, if it was blue, you wouldn't see them If you want completely transparent clock, you will have to find a cab for it since this one is transparent blue.

I didn't include files for background, but there is a cab file for it, search for munrus background cab in diamond forum. Most custom roms have this feature already included.
@ everyone
New versions posted in post 1, should fix lockup issues and added CFC compressed version.

I looked and I dont have a TF3D Configurator, is that something I can download, or did AT&T simply hide it from me? (or am i just not looking in the right place?)
My clock is not transparent at all, its a solid gray. Gonna try the new version out
*edit*
you mean the Diamond_TF3D_Config program? just stumbled across it in a thread labled "[CABS] Just bought a Fuze? You gonna need these cabs, son!" gonna check it out
**edit**
Installed the CFC cab and the clock on mine is still a solid gray. and the Text Messages tab, the Menu Key is still broke

Try the file I attached in zip below and see if it helps out your clock issue. You'll have to unzip, copy it to phone, then disable tf3d, copy this file into windows using Total Commander, then re-enable tf3d. Let me know how it works.
The messages tab works on mine, what version of tf3d do you have? My version is 1.2.35348.2_1813.6. I didn't change any files in messaging except for image files, so not sure how that could effect messaging menu.
Nice Work
Hey Showaco,
Thanks for this. Nice piece of work indeed.
I dig blue
Oh and just to confirm the CFC version does load a whole lot faster than the standard.
woks on diamond?
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

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
