i i understand you correct you want to change your background? all you do isgo to a photo and long click/hold over it and there should be a selection where you can change it i don't remember exactly.
hope it helps

Sorry for being rude, but what is it you don't understand?
In every single post I made in this thread I've wanted to know where it is located, which apk or whatever file.
I know how to change it the usual way.

thankyou! worked perfect, pulled files and pushed back new!

Could you tell me how you did that? With adb?
And what is the perfect size for images?
Thx

320x455 is the size of the images.
use
adb remount
adb push c:/htc_wallpaper_01_lockscreen.jpg /system/etc/lockscreen/port/
if you want the original images use
adb pull /system/etc/lockscreen/port/ c:/

And htc_wallpaper_01_lockscreen.jpg is the Screen i want to use, right?
Thx a lot

Yep that is the one.
EDIT: There are many backgrounds, looks like they intended for an album but never implemented it.

Another nice little program that will do this is BaseHueExpress - check it out. No .cab installation, just unzip, copy the .exe file anywhere on your phone, and click to execute.

resize album menu?

hi there. don't know if that's the best section where ask about my question.
i am using smaller htc and manila menus on my diamond.
the menu in album is a lot bigger (and still green,will change it to grey asap).
i'd like to resize it like the others but i don't have a clue of the values to use to do it.
can someone help me with that? here's some screenshots of my idea..
htc menu (all ext apps)
manila menu (sense UI related)
album menu (not resized yet)
i know that the files to edit the album menu size are those ones:
ha_skin_l.xml
ha_skin_p.xml
and resize all the
ha_menu_focus_*.bmp files,which are the "menu bars".
but i don't know nothing about xml. they look like:

Well, points for self-knowledge must be granted, you really aren't good at this.
Just play with the values man, just guess and try, starting with the "itemheight="80" rows="7" portion I would suggest.

hi m8,i really don't want that someone else does the whole job for me. i always do my tests before begging for help,i already did some tests but without good results. i already tried both "itemheight" and "rows",as fsize (font size?) but i had no luck. i thought there's some other values that i ignored as less "visible" than those two that are the best candidates. that's why i said i don't know nothing about xml. btw thanks a lot for the reply,that's such an invitation to try again and again

Thats OK, I can always blacklist you
Anyway, if you played with the values, and got no result, than I am afraid I am not going to be able to help. Other than maybe remarking: Did you restart the device after changing the values? It may need a restart to reread the file.

Change text highlight color in Sense

Hi everyone. Can anyone point me in the right direction to change the text highlight color in Sense? I already tried to change the highlight value in framework-res.apk/res/values/styles.xml but that's not working on Fresh ROM 3.4.0.1. I'm starting to think the hex color code to change is somewhere in com.htc.resources.apk or HTC_IME.apk but I've been searching for a day and have gone through tons of code and nothing's sticking out. I've attached a screenshot that shows what exactly I'm talking about.
Can anyone help please? Thank you!
Would it be in a jar file??

Ooooh good hint. I did not think of that. Maybe services.jar? I'll keep looking around.
I'm really starting to believe this particular thing needs to be change in smali code in HTC_IME.apk but I'm still spinnin the wheels on this.
Well, no Sense, but maybe this helps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795242

Thanks. Unfortunately, that doesn't apply to Sense I already followed those steps for the CM themes I've asked gIMpSTa to give me a hand on this one. He too thinks it's in smali code as well.
Thanks again.
