Tools to customize the today screen

Greetings,
I was searching the forums looking for tools to change my today screen. In fact, I have found 1-Home Edit, but it doesn´t seem to work on my Kaiser.
tbh, I just want to change default colors and the background. Are there any utils that would do that ?
Thanks in advance,
search for htc home customizer
haam1978 - search for htc home customizer
He wants to customize his today screen as he said. He didn't say anything about wanting to customize the HTC Home plugin.
That´s right... for example, when I go to settings, today screen, and specify a background, it loads ok, but it appears like Im looking through a smoked glass... I even thought about editing some themes and saving them with the backgrounds I want, but that wouldn´t be pratical.
Reading the description of the 1-Home Edit tool, I found that that´s what I´m looking for, but it won´t work on the kaiser.
Any suggestions ?
In response to the OP, try reading this from microsoft. Personalize the Today/Home Screen.
Also,
Microsoft’s free desktop PC Theme Generator
ThemeMaker
VITO ThemeEditor
Spb Pocket Plus

The 1-Home Edit tool is for Windows Mobile Smartphone/Classic not for Windows Mobile Professional that the Tilt/TyTNII uses.
ok for putting your bakground do the next
open it by the windows photo viewer and then choose it from the option menue to be as a background and then you will get a transperant percent put it in 0 then you will see it as well
for changing the coloures of your bars i think any themes can do that
i hope this is what you mean
I had the same problem about the background, thanks for the info haam, it helped

Change crappy TouchFlo 'blocks' bacground

Hey guys, lots of great packages here but the one thing I really want to change/get rid off is those crappy blocks which are used in the touch flow background.
You know the ones, the crappy ones which fade into the horizon that look like something from Tron
They look terrible and it seems you can only replace the home area with a background image.
Do any of the packages here allow you to change this?

guess the only way to do that is to change the theme using touch flo 3d config
anyone have a solution for this. as much as i like the blocks i want to change me to the same wall paper as my home page.
Please, i want to change that ugly wallpaper too... Touch flow 3d config "themes change" don't work for that.
I agree. Since ive changed to the Official HTC WWE 1.93 rom with .5 radio (better signal now, thanks for that!) I cannot change the background at all. In SETTINGS and TODAY the background image has been selected by clicking on BROWSE yet nothing is displayed.

You CAN change the Wallpaper on the homescreen by SLIDING to the SETTINGS Tab on the TF3D.
There is an option Wallpaper. This will change the Wallpaper on the HOMESCREEN only (unfortunately) and not on the other tabs
The BACK GROUND with in the Settings and Today menu doesn't apply to the wallpaper.
All the best.

and you can get a few wallpapers from here

I have changed the home page wallpaper. This thread referes to the Blocks on the other pages. I want them to be the same as the home page.

Happy to help.
I find it hard to believe no one has made an app to make the wallpaper apply to all tabs....why did HTC make it like this? Weird....
Im suprised as well. Changing the home page is nice, but i would like the rest of my tabs to look ince too.
still nothing?
can this really be that complex?
Have patience. There are people who are preparing Manilla editors.

Just because you have no clue about how to do this doesn't meant it's a good idea to insult peoples intelligence by implying its simple and they should have done it already. The reason it's not been done yet is not because theres no want, but because devs must first understand fully how Manilla operates, it's not exactly documented in a nice fancy API.

I am boring

I know this is counter to some of the really cool work being done here. But is there a CAB available that would restore the default, boring white TaskBar Icons? I really like the color ones, but when my phone is on mounted on my dashboard, I cannot read the color where the standard white Icons show up nicely.
Thanks for any help.
Doug M.
go to remove programs and delete the taskbar pack you installed.
It is preloaded/cooked in a rom. All of the new ROMs have fancy Icons except for the DaG kitchen. So unless I learn to become a master chef, I am still searching for my boring icons.
Doug M.
Me too, I would like to have my standard whitey icons back, I am currently using Shep's WM 6.5 ROM.
is there any?

Custom manila icons in slider TOO big?!?!

Hi all. I've searched and searched the forums and the net and can't seem to find anyone who has the same problem as me..
I've been wanting to change the touchflo/manila icons on my Touch Pro, and have tried all sorts of cabs and apps to do this, including Manila Cusomizer and MaxTTM as well as others..
What I've found is that with EVERY one, the icons on my touchflo/slider bar whatever you want to call it come up TOO BIG to fit into the space that they're supposed to, resulting in a cropped button/icon..
Surely someone must've had this problem and figured out the workaround? I'm guessing it's something to do with my VGA display and the icons are designed for XVGA or QVGA? I don't know.. All I know is that they look crap, when they should look sweet..
Can anyone help?
I'm running Cap's Special ROM on a Touch Pro if that helps.
Thanks!
Not exactly sure what you mean. Are you using MaxManila - I know there are problems with tab icons being cut off at the top with some ROMs using it? Are you able to post a screenshot so we can see exactly what the problem is?

Want A Rom Like That~

There are many roms with topbar & bottombar transparence 100% for HTC HD
But I found none here for X1
It is very cool ,isn`t?
Can anyone put out one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=650413 close enough??
Mod edit: not dev related, moved to general
sometimes searching helps, often screenshots don't display the default appearance of a rom but what the user made of it
far as I know the first is spb something theme and transparent bars can be installed as a separate app on most roms, bg changer as well (e.g. here, so you should have asked where you found the pics...instead of opening a new thread

Use wm 6.5 and HDWALL to create a wallpaper that includes the top and bottom bars.
Thank you all !
Best Wishes!
