Splash Screen Repository
to help you..
I think you got the splash screens. total noob question though.
i can help wit the windows media player skins, i have a couple good ones to recommend for the touch pro/ fuze. I've gotta get off though so i'll post those tomorrow or later in the weekend if i get the chance.
If you go looking for them on your own remember that it has to be vga to work on a touch pro
good luck

ok so are you gonna call me a noob or help ive been to the splash screen forum but i didnt get any full instructions for a first timer help would be cook thanks in advance and tell me about those skins
sorry
lol, i don't know how to do it either, i just knew where they were. sorry.
WMP skin:
http://mylostblog.altervista.org/sk.../wmp-user-skin-002-htc-diamond-skins#more-374
I know it's not in english but it's the only place i could find it in vga for you. The theme will still keep your media player completely in english, it's actually from another XDA member.
scroll down and download the one that says vga
In case you don't know how to install (i didn't):
-put the zip file on your phone, either by micro sd or through active sync.
-go to file explorer and open it.
-Press menu and you should have an option similar to 'extract to' or 'unzip to'
-extract in device-program files-windows media player
-run windows media player, go to menu-options...-skins
-it'll search then you can press next for your skin. press ok when you've selected the new one
-slide out the keyboard and do the same thing. close your keyboard and you're good to go.
I'm really sorry about calling you a noob, i was just joking around. Let me know if you have any problems. i made the instructions super easy to follow in case someone else needs help.
One more thing-
i don't know if you saw this or not
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2709600&postcount=1
Instructions for changing a splash screen, it looks complicated. I'll see if i can stumble through it and post my results. gotta go for now though.
thanks alot i really appreciate it
np, get the skin working?

Phone = AT&T Tilt.
I found out about this site from Mobilitytoday this morning and have literally sat here all day playing with the incredible, free and wickedly cool things these people are nice enough to share.
I installed the "Kaiser.HTC.Home.v2.0.720719.Schaps.Color" and cannot figure a few things out:
1. The brightness fix doesn't work. I get, "Access denied..." when copying the "HTCUti1.dll" file to the WINDOWS dir.
2. Is there a better battery indicator than "powertray_489"? I was looking for something that came with the new home screen but couldn't find it.
3. I have the "Kaiser Comm Manager(10 Buttons)" comm. manager installed but the WLAN button doesn't work. It just won't turn on. I tried installing the other comm. managers but they wouldn't install.
4. Is there a way to change from Celsius to Fahrenheitfor the weather portion of the application?
5. When I slide my screen into landscape mode, there is no scroll available at the bottom to see the other items. When it is in vertical mode, the scroll is there. Odd because when I installed the “Kaiser.HTC.Home.v2.0.720719.cab” (black and white version) the scroll was there?!
So there they are. This site is awesome and I’m addicted to it already! Any help would be deeply appreciated!
Here is a big hint for you start reading and use the search button! No one will spoon feed you here all your problems have been talked about a few times so they should be easy to find
However much I would like to help, austinsnyc already said what can not be disputed. Read, read, read... when you are finished, read some more.
Do not concentrate on just the Keiser area, read ALL threads. OS isn't phone specific all the time. A fix or tweak for one phone is good for alot of phones.
I'll give you one answer though...(the easy one of course)
When you choosed your city in the weather app, click menu options and there is a box to check for Farenheit.
Good luck
being a new user myself, i can say that the search function isn't very helpful. however, there is an option in the HTC Home plugin options under weather, where you enter your city, to change it to Fahrenheit. also, to fix the CommMgr there is a registry edit you have to do, you change whatever it says to like WLAN1 or something.
Did you try the search XDA using Google sticky post?
For conveniance here's a link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314616
Also this is not really what we think of as upgrading so I'm moving it to the Kaiser section.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone that posted a reply in here. I am trying, still having trouble finding the items but every search brings a new .cab installation to my phone!
Thanks Guys!
I happen to have the WLAn Registry fix bookmarked as I have to run it after every new ROM install. (Scroll down to find it)

Thanks for the handy link Mike. I'll put it to good use!
What cab is the Big Clock I see on e all the today screens called and where can I get it for my at&t tilt ??
You can try this: Its called HTC home plugin. if you have vga screen there is a thread for it here on this forum. Just search htc home vga
Thanks that was it
How does one edit what is shown.
I do not need all the extras
is there a way to back this out if you dont like the way it looks?
Dont mean to hijack the thread but I would like to know as well, I like the plug in but the clock is to big any way to make it smaller ?
thanks
God these newbies are relentless... You answer one question (one that could have been solved via search or more over just READING the thread with the pictures of the clock you like. Instead of just looking at the pictures) and you get several follow up posts that could be answered in the same fashion...
Its like answering them just enables their lazy attitude.
Enough rant.
UNINSTALL IT. If you don't know how to do that. READ YOUR MANUAL.
As for the other one, search. Hell, just click through some menus.
And the other, does not get smaller (that I know of) with advanced modification to the plug-in.
Later, Lew
P.S. That was a long over due rant.
Delete MY POST Please
Guys,
I agree...but also disagree...
Agree: newbies/noobs should always read before they ask, use google, use search, rtfm, etc.
Disagree: just ignore the stupid questions, and if you have time, answer them (with a hint to why it's stupid, they might...possibly...eventually...learn! )...
Last but not least: google/search for HHC (HTC Home Customizer), the best HTC Home editor (AFAIK) which allows you to change the font, buttons, etc.
Regards,
Nika.
Hi,
I'm relatively new to flashing and trying different ROMs but with the help of this forum, I think im getting there.....slowly at least.
That was until I installed this application for the big clock on the today screen, im runnning a winodws mobile 6.1 ROM and just assumed (for some reason) this would work.
After installation of the big clock mod, my phone just keeps resetting its self, over and over.
I'm hoping that i can fix the problem by flashing a new ROM, however the phone wont stay on long enough for me to sync it then run the ROM utility.
Is there a way of putting the phone in boot loader then running the flash application from the computer?
Thanks
Hi I just upgraded to an at&t tilt. I have been reading these forums to get some customization ideas. Now I just want everyone to know this is my first ppc, just had regular cell phones before this. I have a general idea of what to do but I could use a little help.
What I want to do is get the regular black htc homescreen plug and the home screen customizer. I need help getting ahold of them and installing. From what I have seen so far I just need to find the cabs to dowload directly to my phone, or get them in a zip file and sync them from my pc. If I sync from my pc were do I put them on my phone to access the cabs and install?
If anyone can help me out it would be awsome. I need to find the files and how to install them, unless they are cabs i can download directly to the tilt. Also if anyone has any other cool apps they think would help I would like to hear about them; I will probably get pie scroll fix and some other helpful stuff too.
Thanks for all your help.
Here are the versions I'm using, with no problems. Alternatively you can go here: http://www.pocketemu.com/news.html
You can put the cabs anywhere on the phone (in any folder - my documents for example), or on a sd card then just run from there.
edit:
the home customizer didn't upload but you can get it from the link i posted
Thanks for the speedy reply!
Thanks I will install them and hopefully it will come out the way I want it. Can u put a screenshot of your homescreen so i can see what it looks like? Oh and do u have any recommendations for other tings to make my stock tilt better?
kaiser tweak
Does anyone know if the kaiser tweak already has the home screen and customizer with it, or will I have to install that seperate?

just flash a new rom.
Flash a new rom
To tell u the truth thats what i wanted to do was just flash it with the kaiser rom but I am kind of afraid to do that because i dont know much about how it will work, what it will change, if it will still work tight with at&t and i dont want to mess up my phone and void the warranty. If i just add plugins and apps I dont have to worry about it as much. Plus I have no idea how to do it.
Here you go boss
http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=383904
I just got my tilt a week ago, and have probably flashed it at least a dozen times by now playing with settings and trying out different ROMs.
The only problem I've had with AT&T was when i put an incompatible radio on, my sound stopped working. I could still make calls, I just couldn't hear anything.
A reflash fixed that. Other than that I haven't had any probelms
Just read through the wikis and other peoples posts and everything will(should) turn out fine
??
the link takes me to a page that say rotator admin login?
well I will have to read through the wikis. what are wikis anyway? lol!
here is the link to "G.W.E.N.I" which is basically just a big collection of helpful information/links
are there any better or newer versions of what is posted?
the backilght does not work on this version of htc home
Well basically ive just got my new HTC diamond today and was looking at installing a few apps, programs and themes ect.
But after spending 2 hours browsing the forum im just getting more and more confused by the minute about what you actually have to do
Can anyone link me or tell me how i go about getting programs themes and app's on to my diamond?? im mainly wanting to change the home screen (customize it)
Help Much Appreciated.
Jack
Right after further searching i found i need "TouchFlo 3D" i downloaded this and put it in the program files folder then go to install it on my phone and nothing happens, asif i dont even click it .. please can someone help!!
Jack,
Ur diamond out of the box already has TF3D, go to start>settings>today and choose on the second tab ('items') TF3D, click the X in the upper right corner and then your homescreen will change to the one with the nice flip clock on it.
But why don't u start with the manual that came with your diamond?
Get to know the device a little more, use it for awhile and then decide what you want to change to let it better suit your needs.
For tons of information and good applications you're absolutely in the right place here, though it can be a bit overwhelming at first, but you'll figure it out i'm sure (cuz i did to and i'm not a whizkid whatsoever..lol...)
Have fun with your diamond, it's a great device with lotsa possibilities

Well its not actually out of the box i meant new as in ive just got it
Got it off my dad as hes just upgraded, anyways after searching even more i decided to have a little play.
i followed this guide :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
And used this rom :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=607860
But im getting numerous problems, at first it worked spot on with no problems then after about an hour i went to see if i had a message and it had froze .. now it just keeps turning itself on and off all the time and basically hard resetting itself as every time it turns off i have to do the stylus alignment and date ect.
What am i doing wrong?!
You're doing nothing wrong, but you skipped a step that's crucial when flashing a Diamond:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540290&highlight=mtty
If you perform mtty before you flash a new rom it will most probably solve all the weird errors such as you describe.
Hi, i tryed that but i dont have windows 7 just XP so its not compatable
sure it is compatible, it's even easier to use with XP cuz you don't have to change the drivers.
Be sure to read the first post of the thread carefully, lol, look at the big sentence in red:
NOTE: WORKS WITHOUT DRIVER INSTALL ON XP
Your right its working perfect now, but the tom only came with one keyboard option, and its not "qwerty" can i get an add on or something so i can get the other option's on my device (qwerty, compact,phone keypad)
Thanks for all your help Nirak
Just tryed two other ROM's and there both the same it shows in the screen shots that you can change between the different ones but i keep getting the same keyboard layout no matter what ROM i use, like it wont let me change it to qwerty or phone keypad
Could someone please help me, as its getting quite frustrating now.
Thanks Jack
Well as the title says I am in desperate need of help. Now I have just gotten the Touch Diamond and I am not happy with they way things look. I liked the phone by looking at all the Youtube videos and decided this was my next phone. Well little that I knew every video was either a different carrier style phone or has been modded. Now I am looking to do the same thing, but I am looking for someone who is experienced in this field to give me some one on one support. Now I am not a complete noob when it comes to computers but when it comes to the phone yes I am have never messed with modding a phone. This is my first PDA phone. So if someone can either send me a PM or just reply here that would be great. My main goal is to get the most out of my phone. Thanks in advance and hope to hear from you guys soon. Thanks

There is a ton of info on this site and on ppcgeeks.com so the best thing to do is read,read,read. Then you can learn what you like and decide what you want to do. Good Luck!!
Thanks. I have been to numerous sites and they all say what the stuff can do but there is no Tutorial on how to add stuff and config it. Thats where I am running into problems. I would like to change my TF3D screen off this purple color. I was able to finally get my weather to work in my area instead of major cities. Now I just want to mess with the look of the phone. I have the Diamond TF3D Config installed but all the themes I want to install on the phone wont come up in the Path folder. Thats another area I could not find a Tutorial on. If I had one of those or at least a video of how to do it that would be great.

flash a energy rom, they are great out of the box and they have a custom look to them. just follow the on screen instructions and you cant go wrong. just make sure you flash hardspl first.
Ok, Thanks. Now I know I have seen some out there that wont work for my phone. Can you tell me which one will work. I have a Verizon Diamond and I dont want to brick it.

I don't think there is a HardSPL/Unlocker for the Verizon version.
You may only be able to tweak your shipped rom.
Ok, well I am not having a problem I would like to get solved. Once I get this solved I am all set. Also do I have to unlock my phone to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.5? Here is a Link to my problems with the weather.
