Background on all tabs - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi everyone,
I was trying to figure out a way to get a background/wallpaper on all tabs without f*ck*ng up my Diamond...
Can some of you point me in the right direction?
I would prefer to deal with a solution that is reversable/uninstallable in case it doesnt work... I would like to be able to apply any wallpaper at any time, so pre-packed "all-tabs wallpaper cab files" are not my way to go.
How does the diamond apply the original "boxed/grilled" wallpaper anyway, is there a bmp or png that we can replace and get our way with the backgrounds as we see fit?
Thank you very much for all your help guys

Theme issue

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.

Touchflo 3d wallpaper change

Hey guys, I know this has been posted before, and i feel bad for making a new topic about it, but i've tried searching and cannot for the life of me find the topic. I don't even know the proper keyword to search.
Anyways an answer would be greatly appreciated.
In the touchflo 3d tabs, I know how to change the main wallpaper, but how do i put individual wallpapers for each tab?
Do i need 3rd party software? or is it a reg edit?
Thanks in advance!
no one can help me out????

hmm, thanks for replying, although it didn't really provide a solution to my question.
is there even a solution or it's not possible?
Do you mean the few dark grey squares in the backgroud that show in different tabs? My belief is that you can't change the wallpaper there because it's not a simple wallpaper image file that is there (my belief is the background is built up by one single square image file). But you can change the color of the squares (from grey to red or blue) or outlook of individual squares (from rectagle to circle, maybe? but it may look silly to do so).
Well at least not for now, but I am sure somebody is hacking the phone hard enough to make it happen one day .
you need manila editor to change the square appearance, btw. Look for the "square" image file in manila editor and change it to whatever color/shape you like. Try, if you don't like it. Switch it back.

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!

How to change DEFAULT TouchFlo 3D Background? (NOT SETTINGS WALLPAPER!)

How do you change the DEFAULT TouchFlo 3D Background? I know that there is an app that will make your wallpaper display on all tabs but that is not what I want. I do not want to change the wallpaper through settings.
I want to change the DEFAULT Background in TouchFlo 3D.
Does anybody have any idea how to do this?
Side note - Also, I managed to figure out how to get back the Top and Bottom Curtains. You can find my cab file to install them in my post below(#5).
Does nobody know what that manila file(s) is called? Or possibly have it(them) handy so that I can make a cab file?
Please all help is appreciated!
I'm amazed that after several hours of posting this, nobody knows what this manila file is called... All you theme makers out there do you have any idea at all or does everyone just throw in images and hope for the best?
I think that's the bottom curtain - 1864da05_manila.

Thank you!! Finally someone answered me. You the man!!
EDIT: That was it! Made a cab file, disabled manila, installed the cab, re-enabled manila and beautiful it has become once again!
Thanks again man.
EDIT AGAIN... That file worked, but only for all tabs but home. Strange...
The following cab file includes:
1876f286_manila
1864da05_manila
18c460d8_manila
It will give you the Black Top and Bottom Curtains but the bottom curtain will only work on all tabs but home.
I will continue in my venture to solve this problem and when I finally do I will re-post the cab in it's complete form.

[Q] Theme/Skin modification: I need a little help.

I'm using one of the stock HTC Sense 2.5 skins as a basis for a custom skin. I'm using apktool to access the files and build my updated apk file. I've found a lot of the the things I want to replace, but I'm a bit stumped on where to find some of the button backgrounds and background panels (I don't see anything that looks exactly like these in any of the subfolders for the skin I'm working with). I'm attaching two screen shots with big orange arrows pointing to the specific parts I'm looking for. I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone can point me to where these items are located and what they are called.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer.
Id say look in the htccamera.apk, framework, settings, htc res or system ui! Its so hard to find the correct png from all the different locations? Ive been in & out of the Rom frameworks & have modded my phone ui but those ones dont ring a bell sorry mate
Thanks. I hadn't thought of checking any of those files since these specific items seem to change according to the skin. I'll dig through them (especially the framework one, and see what I can find).
I am also interested in modify icons (specialy on my home screen) and cud you tell me what soft to use? Tku in advance

look in the folders like i said in post #2 plus try settings, rosie, ect.... you can mod almost any apk & png files, just dont mod the htc_ime.apk! Anything goes wrong.... just reflash the rom before you had problems
