Doe anybody know if this is possible? Now I only got the background on the hometab, but it would be nice if it is shown all the time... A quick search didnt do the trick for me
id also love to be able to do this, anybody have any clues??
Yeah i would like something like this too.
Maybe even an option to have a different background pic on each tab, so say i have a Dark Knight pic on my home page behind the clock an stuff when i move across to say settings for example i could have a different pic there instead of the plain black with the squares underneath!
bump, the more ive thought about this today the more i want it!
/signed =)
Looked in the files, but have't found a way to do it :\

Me as well, did a quick look around the picture files and was hoping that it was just a normal background picture, but I had no succes as well :S
well i assume it wud jus be a case of replacing the image of the grey squares wherever that file may be. for having different image per tab would probably need additional software i would assume. then again, im just guessing. gonna keep this thread open because this is something i really want on my diamond
I'd also love to get an answer to this.
This is not possible till now.
If you use the search, you will see, that it is not possible to change any graphics of touchflo3d till now.

Ah ok, I assumed "This is not possible till now." meant it was not possible before, but it is now. Very confusing lol.

Lol, that's exactly what I assumed. The 'till' made me think twice, but getting back on topic. I'd love to have this also.
another vote from me also. this would be a nice bit of customization to have..

Sorry that may bad english confused you all. I meant: It is not possible at the moment.
Hi.
Anyone knows if it's still not possible to change the background on all of the tabs?
This would be a very cool feature
it sure would! And I’ve seen a lot of people asking for this feature, so I’m surprised that non of the diamond experts has figured out how just yet.
sushilange and D-MAN666 are figuring this out right now ...
They are developing an app to change the manila files...

So everyone is wondering why the Nexus One Launcher just keeps FC'ing, and how come the Droid can just install, and WHAM! it works. ANY ANSWERS????
the droid luancher is just a themed Rosie.apk. we already have Rosie (sense UI). the nexus launcher is probley having shared uid issues or something. thats just a guess though.
I think you have me wrong, Im talking about the native nexus launcher not the rosie 2.1 combo
use the open eclair launcher2.apk it works fine

no i was explaining what the droid (themed) rosie was. the nexus launcher is going to need opengl 2.0 to be fully functional. and to get it to instal ur gonna need an aosp rom. we had aosp build on the heroc forum but things went south with the leak of a .29 kernel. causing the drivers for touch screen to not be compatible with anything but htc built and modified builds. but before the .27 kernel came along i backported the opengl drivers from the .29 kernel into the old .27 kernel enabling the 2.1 opengl drivers which are opengl 1.1 for the msm7k devices. the nexus one like many other new devices has a different arch and gpu that alows them to have opengl 2.0. our devices just dont support it. the best lwp we can get are only lwp from the market that are half baked/ home brewed lwp. so yeah ther is a chance u could port one of the few builds that have support for the nexus launcher and other nexus goodies. but in the end it will be fairly buggy as it was on the heroc. ie Eris and heroc are basicaly the same devices. only a few minor differances.

Seems to work fine for me now, with live wallpapers as well
I seem to remember that when the leak first came out there was some "issue" with the opengl that shipped inside of the update. That *might* be whats going on here. I'd suggest looking around for that thread, as there may be answers to your questions in it.

I've been trying to say live wallpapers worked with the launcher2 from open eclair for a while..just not the wallpapers that ship with the phone

yeah the only real issue with the nexus one launcher that we had with the heroc, was the app tray was a little laggy and bothered a lot of people.
the lwp though were just issues with the stock lwp. like i said the ones in the market worked ok. some were a bit laggy though and would at times bring the phone to a crawl. i remember one did for sure. that was the "logcat lwp" i loved it but it was easily seen that lwp werent meant for our hardware.
but yeah i think its possible to get a few of the stock ones to work also. i cant remember what me a maejrep had to do to get them working. but i do remember them still being to buggy. but yeah most of the market ones were ok and would run for the most part fine.
I still cant find a working launcher2 someone please POST A LINK!!!!!!

THEY'VE POSTED MANY LINKS THAT WORK FOR EVERYONE ELSE!!!!!!1111
There's no need to shout.
The reason for the confusion is because hes on the earlier leaked 2.1 not the rooted 2.1

You are the one who is interested in this. Make a Backup, install your theme, if it works great, if not, just restore to your back-up. There is no fear of bricking your device. Dont be expecting people to just install things to see if they work for you. This is a community everyone should contribute!
Thats awsome logic, however i have no knowledge of how to even make a backup, much less get a successful one. Ill be the first to admit, too, that im not very android savvy yet when it comes to the mod scene, and if something messes up, the forums would explode with me asking questions on how to fix my phone. Im also not going to loose my job because I have to explain to my boss that I bricked my phone because I wanted to make it look different. Im not a developer, im a user, and i cant afford to blindly walk in to something without knowing side effects.

You dont need to be a developer to do this. I recommend you check out the PMC (Pimp My Captivate) guide posted in the general sections for the captivate. Also, if your new to the mod world and xda in general, I will be the first to say welcome. We have a great community of moders, users, and developers here who are extremely helpful. Most questions probably have been asked, and answered already. Use the Forums search feature to see if it has been, or if you want to learn how to do something search it, there are a TON of guides on the forums about moding and developing!
For making a backup you can do this, by going to the Android Development Section, and Reading the ClockworkMod Custom Recovery
its simple and easy for making sure you never brick your phone!
got me curios ill do it. reply when i get home.....
ok it installs fine over TwLauncher but not launcherPro. now you just have to find some themes that are made for 2.1 eclair rom. most of what i found was for CyanogenMod. don't know anything about this mod but i hope this helps some one. i now think this is of intrust to me too. so if we could get a captivate tut for this thing (past instillation) like actual installing of themes that would be great thanks.
Yea metamorph works fine some times it bugged out with ADW when I first start up the phone but other than that metamorph works great. I'm using the evo blackbar mod.

I second that. I installed it over Touchwiz and LauncerPro and I didn't see one change that it made. The only metamorph change that has actually ever worked for me is the Evo black bar mod.
will some one pleas port this because it cant be to hard because the droid and the droid 2 are almost the same phone the olny difrence is the soft touch buttons,the prosser and the system partitons and how cool would it bee to have the droid 2 blur on the droid 1 so if some one is up to it be redy to do the easyst portting ever

Why not just use launcherpro. That should get rid of it.
ive got a port on my milestone, maybe the port can assist droid users as well somehow, if the right people try?
only problems i see, is that we need 512MB memory, and droid / milestone got 256MB which cause it to show many "Low memory" errors in the logs.
but becides that im sure the droid 2.2 kernel can easily be used with droid2 and solve problems i see when using it on a kernel 2.1 on milestone...
you are soo lucky!
i am very interested in your work dexter could u or someone els point me in the right direction to porting this to droid i tried porting your motosense to my droid because it looks like it works way better than zd well lets just say that failed badly but it would be great if u or someone els gave me some instructions on how to port this cant be that hard right almost all of the hard work is done thanks for your work
I like how the title of this thread is says "ported" as if someone did it..naturally I got excited. Boy was I let the hell down.
ya sory about that but it gets peoples and devs attention so it will happen

The easiest port ever was probably the Desire ROM to the Nexus One, research before you write.
I've been asking to get Blur ported from the X for a while but no one has done it. Its to the point where i might offer to pay someone to do it.
i was talking to jamezelle on twitter and he said h might just do it some time but not untill sense ui 2.2 port is finished and let me sayit is great almost a daly driver so the guy isint dum and knowes how to port and theres a port for the milestone so it will be really easy

I know, right?!
if only this really did get a devs attention. Maybe we could get jamezelle to help wen he finishes his sense rom...
he said he knowes how and it allredy has ben done for the milestone so all of the hard work is all done
wait, the blur from the d2 or dx, or the old motoblur?
I was thinking about porting it, but its only 2.1 so its pointless.
I know deleting that particular file is to enable software rendering.. or disabling. one of those. Suppose to help mainly with gaming. But my main question, if any one knows, is that if you delete from the system does it have any other benefits or even negativves to other partsof the rom?
Hope to hear from you guys
I asked that same??? To a dev and he didn't know either. I say Google or just make a nand and delete it and give it a spin for a few days

Quadrant gets slower (3 FPS!!!) but it actually works properly. Might also get rid of the pmem bug. Shouldn't hurt anything.

It did do some weird animations with like the weather animations and GB power off screen effect. It was real blocky and just basic transparent white and black boxes haha it was actually kinda cool but thats the only thing i found negative, was just buggy certain animations
