I have noticed this happens when using showacos backgrounf for all tabs, which I think is incorperated in that theme (I could be wrong) are you using NRG's ROM? He has an altered homescreen and does not play well with the background all tabs mod! Unzip this file onto your device and use total commander to copy paste it into your windows file then reset and you will be able to use that theme!
Awesome! Thanks for the help. I will give it a shot once I get some free time and I will post results.... And yeah I am using NRG'z roms... I am running Mercury right now.
I used this cab to fix the clock issue.

This fixed the home tab for me... but then the rest of the tabs have a big white square in the upper-left hand corner.
So this thread will be great...I will tell you how to edit the the Sense 2.1 (2.5 coming soon!) clock files and we will make great clocks...I really want to do this because the process is fairly easy and I am quite sure you can do it better than me....if we get alot of users to contribute...we will all benefit!
Here is how you do it
Download and Extract Raw_Sense_2.1_Clock_Files.zip. In that file you will find 2 folders manila files & png files. The manila fies folder includes the raw manila files unedited for your use. The png files folder has the exact same files already converted into .png format.
Using the program of your choice edit/skin/theme those .png files!!! This is the fun part so.....be creative.
Save those files in .png format and make sure to save them all in the same folder.
Now we need to turn your awesome new clock (.png) files back into manila files. For this I use a tool called CFC GUI created by xda-member Chainfire. Big props to Chainfire for this tool! Below is a quick guide to accomplish this using CFC GUI...
Download and extract cfc-gui-only-0.60.35.zip
Run cfc_gui.exe (the program you just extracted)
When prompted select the folder you saved your .png files to.
From the CFC GUI menu select...Tools--->Import from PNGs
When prompted select a folder to save your manila files.
Zip up that folder and share it...includes pictures so I can update the 2nd post with all the files that have been created.
***Note you will probably need to uncheck "hide protected operating system files" from "folder options" on Vista (it will be similar on 7 or XP) to even be able to see manila files.
To the Contributers (aka Da' Clock Makers)
Let me be the first to thank you for your efforts...if you make a clock and post it in the thread I will put it here...and give you credit for contributing!!! My plan is to convert every clock into a cab file when time permits...

Last nights test wasn't very transparent. Just B/W. Some might like that so I posted new one.

analog clock?
is it possible that we have analog clock for sense 2.1?
theboostman ever made analog clock for manila 2.1 though...
i turned tf3d 2.1 off, but still can't copy the files into windows directory.
access denied...
in the properties window, the files in /windows/ are marked read only, but the checkbox is greyed out, so i can't turn them back to writable.
i really want that transparent inverted clock.

Hi all!
I'm new at this, but I'd like to learn how I download a normal ROM, and then change the icons and background images, add and remove programs, change the language etc.
I will not go in and change the very advanced stuff.
I've already downloaded this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625971
I do not know if it is correct (or latest), and what more I need. But the easiest might be to go into an already completed the ROM and then just adjust what I have mentioned above.
Hoping for constructive answers
Sincerely,
PS! I've already downloaded and tried different ROMs, so I know how I am doing just that.

What if you try Mondilv ROM kitchen. His kitchen is on the latest official ROM based and works fine. I based my private ROM on his work.
Thanks for the answer.
I'm downloading it now for testing and to try to find out how to edit it myself.
But what's the newest 6.5.3 (or 6.6) kitchen?

The kitchens are the same, it depends what ROM is used as a base. As far as I know, there is no kitchen shared with 6.5.3 ROM, you will have to do it by yourself. The SYS and XIP files for 6.5.3 are somewhere here in the forum available, EXT and OEM can be found as well.
I've looked at this video; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6LEUx4wEk4&translated=1 but I can't find a program that looks like that. Which program is it that I need to use? I've tried NBHUtil, but that doesn't seemed to be the right one...
I'm actually just gonna do what I was saying in the first post, and when I manage to do it, I will experiment further.

Search for Ervius Visual Kitchen or EVK, and you will find it.
Available as well on my mirror in the kitchen folder. Check my signature for the link.
I think I just give up all these OEM, EXT, MsXIP files, etc.
But is it possible for me to get into the "windows" folder on the ROM I use? I would like to change such as icon images, erase and install other programs and may change the language (which is not very important, but had been fine), etc.
I see that I can get into the "windows" folder on your mobile, but it takes so long to sit there to puzzle. It is easier through the laptop, with mice and larger screen.
Thank you for following up this thread, BeeGee_Tokyo

You can use a file explorer like Total Commander or Resco File Explorer on your device to overwrite or delete files in the Windows folder. However, as long as you do not know what the files that you are deleting are doing, the device might hang afterwards and you have to do a hard reset.
If you want to change icons/pictures of the Sense (aka Manila aka TouchFlo) you can use a tool named Manila Editor.
If you want to change other icons/pictures, they are sometimes in DLL files. Usually you cannot replace them, because they are "in use" by Windows.
Back again to the kitchen, you can find the kitchen that you saw in the youtube movie prepared with a ROM for Topaz here in the forum.
I published my kitchen, check my thread.
Don't worry, even the ROM has a Japanese name, it is based on an English WM6.5 ROM. Not that advanced as Dutty, Mondilv, Iljanok, Patensas, Aman, ......... ROMs, but stable and good for daily use.
PM me if you have specific questions on the kitchen.
Now I'm downloading mondilv's kitchen v.4.1.
That's 6.5, and in english language. Do anyone know where I can find a ROM that runs WM6.5.3 that I can use as ROM-base? (ex. the newest official ROM on htcpedia?)
A summary so far:
1. I have dumped this ROM and have it as a base; http://htcpedia.com/official_norwagian_rom_update_for_touch_diamond2/soft/htc-topaz-rom.html?page=1 (0414 = norwegian language)
2. Downloaded all three .zip files (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5310417&postcount=344) and using the build 23518 in SYS, EXT and ROM folders.
3. Disabled some of the programs I do not want (although I do not quite understand what all programs do, of course I understand that YouTube is YouTube, etc. but ...)
4. Set page pool to 20 (no idea what this means but have seen that it is most common: P)
So some questions:
5. Why is there not a automatically "device id"? What is this?
6. How do I add programs (eg Skype, mySpot)? Can I add these. Cab files into the EXT folder?
7. If I want to remove various tones, images, icons of the programs, how can I do this?
So a few questions about Ervius Visual bebe's kitchen v.1.8.2:
8. What is LZX Compression?
9. What is OLD style ROM?
Would've been nice if someone could help me
Is there anyone that can help me with these few questions?

5. Not sure what this error is.
6. To add programs you must find the OEM package and add it to the Ext folder, cabs will not install from the kitchen.
7. I would search the kitchen for .wav, .mp3, .jpg, .png, .gif etc. to for items to customize. make sure they are exactly as they were before you replaced them as far as resolution, filenames, etc.
Icons and manila are more indepth so it is best to find a theme package that suites your tastes. I strongly suggest looking into max Manila as and OEM package.
8. LZX compression is a file compressor that reduces the overall size of the ROM. it can cause issues but it is always good to try it.
9. Old style ROM, I believe this is to use old style packages and normally would not be used.
Ok, thanks for answering
Point 5 is critical, because I can't save or create a ROM without a device id.
Does anybody know why or how I can get it?
5 : I have in my EV Kitchen TOPA10000
6 : cab to oem to ext

Thanks for the link
The problem with the device id is that it doesen't show/make an id automatically, and I can't wright anything there so it's kind of difficult do make a device id. And as I mentioned before, I can't save or create a ROM without the id.
Is there anyone that can help me how to get a device id?
Is it because the base I'm using?
go to KITCHEN FOLDER/ROM and there is file info.txt, I have got in that file this text
Topaz

But when you're using that kitchen, are you having WM6.5.3?
What I want is to remove Manila, set norwegian language, have WM6.5.3 (not 6.5) and add/remove some programs and ringtones/wallpapers.
Where can I get BeeGee's kitchen? Just to try it...

If you want to add APN to the ROM so evry user doesnt have to do it by them self do like this:

to fix network settings do like this:
open framework-res.apk but dont extract, just open file and go to /res/xml/ and replace your apns.xml with for example with apns.xml from my rom.
just drag the /res/xml/apns.xml from "mine" framework-res.apk into your framework-res.apk that your are using.

Working smoothly so far. Have tried market, internet XDA app and OsmAnd. Launcherpro working great. Is there no way to get vanilla lock screen or are we stuck with HTC's effort? It really doesn't look so hot on the small screen.

It's a pay app but Goto is really nice if you go in and 'disable' the HTC lockscreen. The HTC lockscreen is lagging down the Goto lockscreen if it is still working , by disabling it Goto can work its magic, and it is much nicer.
I renamed the HTC lockscreen .apk to .bak, hence disabling it, if you know how to do this it shouldn't be a problem for you to do it , if you don't , i suggest you don't try it cause getting back could be troublesome.
@warriorvibhu:
Would it be possible to add (a free) lockscreen of your choice to a ROM btw? I tried just disablint the HTC one , and there is something there that works like a lockscreen , but it doesn't really work well. I think it's a standard Eclair lockscreen but with the settings all wrong , is this settingsfile available somewhere and if so could a vanilla android settingsfile make that work?

Yeah i am all for removing bloat. And now that i am reading it again , a better solution than adding a free one would be to get the standard android one to work as it is clearly there in some form.
Flashed v2, booted okay but not connecting to mobile network? happened with the other versions of your roms too, am i doing something wrong? always do a data and cache wipe before flashing.

My fault i misplaced that apns file.. i can fix that in next rom .. or u can try one thing not sure if it wil work.. but should be done before flashing..use Winrar for following steps..
open the Lite rom file u have downloaded with winrar:>> go to>>System>>framework>>framework-res.apk>>res>>xml>>delete apns.xml.
Now extract apns.xml from apns.zip attached here. drag and drop the file given here in this attachment into the window where u deleted apns.xml from. In winrar change the dropdown menu from normal to store. and accept to update archive.
Now ur ROM is ready to be flashed..without APN problem.
thanks for the help! i might try this or wait for the next release, other than this small issue the rom is great!
This version is really fast. Just regret that I can't remove sh*** like taskiller or the buggy lockscreen.
I think you should not ad anything in order to stay in the "lite version" mind.
Anyway, nice job. Thanks a lot.
