Hi guys,
I flashed to the new WM6 ROM, looks gr8, but when I try to change the theme (.tsk) to other themes that I used to have on WM5, the background image does not update...
so is WM6 incompatible with WM5 themes??? I did not install any version of XButton in my ROM...
Whenever I update my theme, I get the HTC default background image but theme colors update correctly...
what is this? any solution?
I have exactly the same problem and anybody knows how can i fix it but i hope that the people of xda can help us
Greetings, Diego!!!
First do this test pls
Hi,
can you install this skin pack Here
if the background dos not change maby you have to change to a difrent rom (i recomend XDA2a)
Greets Antonius
I will try this, but switching to a different rom is not that easy, I spent much time personalizing things on my PPC.. I will be sad if that would be the only solution
EDIT: it did not work and I am really bored solving problems with WM6,, any solution here?
Shut off htc xbutton (settings, system task)
Change theme
Then turn it on.
Did you try installing your .tsk files to the root of your SD card instead of to the windows folder?

What do you mean? I have nearly 250 .tsk files on mine (don't ask, when I get bored I make about 5 new ones, and I get bored a lot) and every one of them work.

Okay, I'm having problems tracking down which process is X-Button to kill it - what's the process name?
Ok i turned of X-Button and restarted my wiz, and then i changed the theme, nothing happened. I don't understand when i load the cab it doesn't extract properly or what.... the start menu that pops down when you click on start seems to get the theme loaded right but the background picture it loads to Default black. i dont understand what is blocking it....
all i can say is LOL
LOL
remember it: LOL <----

are you trying to be funny? if yes i dont find anything funny to laugh about.... all i want to say is "if you cant help dont bother posting because you are just messing up the thread with bloat full of junk"
This is a known problem when using X-button. Either find the latest version of X-button (1.51 or something similar). Or go to start>settings>system>X-button and uncheck the boxes that says "enable X-button to end programs..."
If you do not have X-button installed, Then try changing your theme, waiting a few minutes and then soft-reset.
Nothin was right about themegence being the best freeware theme maker. I've used it to make every one of mine. If you go to MoDaCo to the Pocket PC Today Screens QVGA in the downloads section I have 30 or 40 of them in there that I've made. I'm going to have to check out where you guys are downloading yours from and see if I can figure out why they aren't working. Usually, at least the ones I've seen, you don't install them from a cab file. They're usually just zipped or a straight tsk file that you put straight in to either the windows folder or in the root folder of you sd card.
Well, I figured that out pretty quick. If you guys are all downloading them from pocketpcthemes.com, they are not working because the wallpaper part of it is not in the right format to fit a wizard. The images are too big so it's not using them, instead it's using the default wallpaper instead. Try downloading from the MoDaCo downloads section that I mentioned in the post just above this one, they should all work. I know that the one's that I made and mandt made will work for sure. I'll try uploading a bunch more there within the next day or 2 also. If there's any at that pocketpcthemes site that you really have to have, I could probably fix a few of them so they will work if you let me know which ones they are.
@xeno
what program do you use... I used them gence to gen my theme and it dint work
edit: I downloaded the themes from modaco, n they all work great. even w/ x-button. omg u r best xeno. but tell us wut u use to make theme so we can make too.
now what is the difference between PocketPCThemes tsk files and ModaCo tsk files?
did anybody succeed to replace the standard tab background by a different picture? is there any solution for td2 yet? i read there are ways to do this on touch hd.
edit: THIS WORKS! =)

Great Thanks! Was searching for something like that
Will try it later.
Dude this find is Sweet!!! Think this should be Stickied because it's simple, easy, and it works.
I will be making several different wallpaper CABs with this for my device so I can switch BG whenever. It would be sweet if there were a moile version so I wouldn't have to use my PC to make the files and CAB's Either way this is a 10 out of 10.
Note: In the program you have to go to 'Config' and set 'Profile Name' to 'Manila v2/v3 Default (No Compression)' or else it will not work.
Edit: One problem. The home Wallpaper is not changed even if I select Default wallpaper. Intresting. I will look in the other thread for an answer when I get back from camping.
yes, you have to set the (home screen) wallpaper separately, and you actually dont even have to set it for the tabs after installation - it just works, different from the touch hd (as far as i read this, i dont have one)
but thats fine for me, i wont change regularly, i am just glad to avoid that boring black background
Havent tried this yet. But it sounds sweet...
Just a few noob questions.
Does it require a cooked ROM ?
And can you uninstall the changes if it goes wrong?

There are no cooked roms for TD2 yet as there is no HardSPL available until today. So it is assumed that this works with official roms.
my rom is original and branding-free (and it worked flawlessly). there seemingly were issues using orange branded roms with touch hd.
this cab just replaces a few picture files, there is obviously no risk in it but losing these files, so you may want to backup them.
Another repost...

@rogeriopcf: the title of the other thread is "Full resolutions Background?" - would you have expected the possibilty to change wallpapers in tabs there?
Noob here,
Anyone here can help me get a nice and fresh lookin theme for my wm6 smartphone (Q8)? Its lookin old.
Been searching the interwebs, but so far, most of the nicer lookin themes (like the sense UI, android, replica themes) are for touchscreen winmos.
Tried to install mobile shell, but I keep gettin "installation unsuccessful" messange.

Q8 is quite old, google if u can find a newer 6.1/6.5 ROM for it, or get a new phone, the android stuff is for android, and touch/PPC UI stuff wont install on a smartphone. Now that is said, there is 3 things u can try.
1) the Samsung I600 Cardwheel from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410370
2) SGregory HTC Home Plugin from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351441 (simplest to install and works well).
3) Some1 managed to port the TouchFlo2D(Manila2D) from touch to smartphone, i installed this once on a Vox and it was ultra heavy so i removed it. It is a long install process and u have to follow it properly and its sligtly buggy, u can try it if u want. Everything u need is here http://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3581
btw, u dont need to put 2 threads with same topic.
Sorry, the double post was my mistake. Thought the first one didn't make it.
Thank you so much for your input, really appreciate it. Got the gregory one, buta haven't tried the others.
I found an android lookin theme on some non english website. Nice lookin. It only needs facade and smartmonitor I think.
I'll post the link as soon as I can find it again.
Guess I really need to go with the 6.1, eh?
What's your tip for the best ROM to use?
thx

Thanks to our friends at modaco I can work towards a single cab fully works for Manila 3D from a HD (lighter and less dependency), to be installed on our TG01, still can not cook and should therefore seems necessary to be able to customize the interface at least, I hope you like!
I suggest also to instal opera 9.5 that you can find HERE
Why in rom development ?
It's in theme normally...
sorry, some mod can move thish thread? i can't delete
Moved...
works fine on UK Orange rom, quite fast as I've tried many TF3D, from 2.1 to 2.5, only thing missing is the calendar tab.
i've installed a wwe version on my tg01, works fine, but with basics functions:
Download
Download FTP
that works verry well can u edit touchflo sence cab the same way u did this 1 would be nice
Tried this, and worked perfectly . . .
but, and its a big but
When I came to uninstalling it, it got stuck on the uninstall screen for about 20 minutes, so I did a soft reset and the phone would no longer boot, so had to hard reset. Its the first time I have had to hard reset my phone.
Have you disable manila in today before unistal it?
Yep, I disabled it and switched back to the windows default home screen before I attempted to uninstall it. The only other thing I found didnt work is the album button on the photo viewer?
Home Hardware Button
Hi! I know this thread is REALLY old but...
I noticed you editted the Manilla build. The hardware home button works perfect on this! Other sense ROMs/Cabs dont have the home button working to take you back to the home tab. Can you tell uss how you did this? It would be VERY useful for us!
Thanks!
hello, is very old and can not remember exactly what I did...
but I think just will not work with the new sense relase

Hi,
I know that there has been many threads regarding landscape cabs for hd2 but I need ask this anyway. I have tried with a couple of cabs for enabling my hd2 for landscape mode but everytime I had an issue with the picture tab. This tab does not work at all, I cant see any pitures and after a while the phone gets laggy.
I have cookies home tab 1.7.1 , xda backgroung4alltabscookie hqwallpatch installed. It should not be anything to do with them right?
Could someone out there give me a cab which is working properly?
Thanks in advance. Appreciate your help.
Brgds
i need that cab file too..
Come on people, help me out here. Does someone have a cab which I could try? I dont wanna use the tx total landscape since I loose the pictures Tab. I want something that is fully functional.
Thanks
I have this cab that does landscape, but I forgot who made it and where its from. Sorry to whoever made it!

I have tried quite few landscape cabs before all had issues with picture and audio tab...same thing on this one or is it ok?
I have this problem too. My hope is that when it is posible to instal landsscape theme.... my problem will be decided. Or I have to instal new version of manila....but I`m too ignorant to do that
Also looking for a landscape cab that doesnt affect the pics & music tabs.....
Can some one help us..... PLEASE
I think that if I instal SPB 3.5 will solve the problem with rotation but sence look so nice

i'v just tried this cab but it messes up the music and pictures screens, the rest looks ok. i'v never really had intrest in having a landscape mode before but after seeing this i'd also like a cab that works without messing up the mentioned screens.....
I enabled landscape mode in Sense using BSB Tweaks and thought it worked but as I was shaking the phone to take this screen capture it flaked out and I had to soft reset. So I'm looking for an alternative too. Now that I think about it though, we will probably have to wait for a new version of Sense to come out to correct the issue.
I think the problem is in Manila - 2.5.19211619.0
That`s why have to make STATISTIK
If you have the same problem wich version of Manila you use ???
EDIT: Now I`m shure that is the problem (Manila). I`ve instal SPB Mobile Shell and there is no such of problem with my phone.
