Unable to change wallpaper - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi i was wondering if anyone can help as this problem has been really annoying me now. I am using a touch diamond v1 with the latest dutty rom, it has been working fine for ages but ive never been able to set a background wallpaper.
Whenever i set a wallpaper it will never display, if i want to see the wallpaper i will need to disabled the touchflo on the today screen. Even then the background is high in contrast and seems to be clouded in the background. The image i have tried locating it both on internal and phone storage with no effect.
how do i go about fixing this?

In the main menu of manila, you can slide from: Home, Contacts, messages,mail, weather,internet, camera,music,and settings. in this page (in settings) you will find "wallpaper". change the manila wallpaper there. (say not when it asks) . not from windows.
It will work.

i dont seem to have the manila menu?

Do you really have a diamond?
every diamond comes with it.
Manila = touchflo

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

TF3D Background Editing Problems

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!

Help for Touch Flo, htc Diamond

Good evening to all.
I own a htc diamond and I can't find a solution to my problem.
On the home page of the background is white .. As in: persons, messages, correspondence.... (To all units of the Touch Flo)
How can i change this white background and put another color?
When i change the theme (Start, Settings, Today) colors above and below the display changes (depending on the themes) while the average white remain.
When you disable the Touch flo (Start, Settings, Today, Elements) the theme looks ok but I do not have the scrollbar (the Touch Flo).
Is there a solution to my problem or is it something so simple that I have discover yet.
Sorry if you bore but anyone I've asked i didn't take any answers.
Thanks for listening my problem and sorry for my Englisl..
Wallpaper...
What you're refering to is the Manila (TouchFlo) wallpaper. You can change this by scrolling to your 'Settings' tab and tapping 'Wallpaper'. This will only change the background on the 'Home' tab though (where your big clock is). There is a application available in this forum which allows you to change the background of all the tabs, but I can't remember where I saw it.
Search the 'Themes, Applications and Software' forum and you'll find it in there.... unless some other helpful forum user knows off the top of their head what the application is called and where it's located. Search first though!!
Thanks a lot for your time grahamkdt
I'll search the other forums and who knows....maybe i am luck.
Thans 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

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

S2U2 Weather Icon FIX!!!!

I havent been able to find a fix for this anywhere...
so i fixed it myself....(when using wm 6.5, TitaniumWeather and s2u2 weather option is set for "userweather")
This is to fix the issue of S2U2 displaying the wrong weather icon in wm 6.5 and userweather option selected in S2U2.
copy the contents of the file folder (which it should be just pictures) to
S2U2/gfx/weather/ folder, to replace the pictures that are already there.
done....!!!
this has only been tried on windows mobile 6.5 using TITANIUMWEATHER, not touchflo​

what does this do other then put the icons on the screen? put it in the center under the clock?
i have found other users with the same issue, the incorrect weather icon is displayed, this fixes that issue....
o do you mean when it get dark the icon stays as a sun instead of the moon?
correct, such as where i am, it has been clear all day, but s2u2 displays snow and ice....it kinda got annoying, so i took care of it....
o nice work
Which of the pictures in the zip did you modify/change? I'm interested in this fix, but I used a different set of weather icons.
Thanks!
right on, heres the story.....
as i was getting annoyed by the inability of the program to display the correct icon, i knew the problem was easy to fix. Accuweather calls upon the weather icon from wm 6.5 using numbers as the file name. So i figured that S2u2 does the same thing, and if that was true then the file names were numbered incorrectly to begin with. looking through the gfx/weather folder i found two sets of icons. the icons that s2u2 were using were incorrectly numbered. i found the second set was correctly numbered and just removed the first set and renamed the second set so that only numbers were in the file name. hence fixing the issue...
i tried the fix and i dont see a difference
p.s. from my understanding when the weather changes the icon changes. so far it hasnt..did i do something wrong?
make sure that s2u2 is setup for UserWeather under the notifications settings tab....its really only viable when u use wm 6.5 interface and TitaniumWeather....
i apologize if i didnt mention that before....i will edit
HTC Sence/touchflo 3d wrong s2u2 icons
I tried a similar trick to the HH_WEATHER icons for the touchflo 3d weather option but there seems to be something more seriously wrong with s2u2. For instance 'party cloudy' and 'mostly cloudy' weather results in displaying the same icon.
After spending a few days swapping icons about I gave up and turned off the weather in s2u2. It seems to be a moving target, like there is some counter out of sync.
This was on a touch pro2, wm6.5. Don't know which HTC Sence verision.
It would be good to know if others with my phone actually have s2u2 weather icons working with the TF3D weather and if there was a fix required.
hello,
For TF3D's weather, it seems not match because S2U2 show forecast only.
A part of the discution with A_C
A_C: "For the Manila 3D, v1.33 simply implemented what's done so far as v1.32d. i.e. some users may still cannot have the weather icon shown. There is no solution yet. Besides, please don't tell me that the icon shown on S2U2 does not match with the Manila 3D's Weather tab any more. It's simply because S2U2 is showing the FORECAST info."
This problem is old problem (V 1.33)
yours,
