it works on the shadow, but i just dont know what to do... i tried the M2DC and it didnt do anything, is there something im supposed to do with it, besides run the cab?
we can customize all buttom, font, and change skin more easierly...so when u want to change to another skin, just add skin into in.use skin with m2dc format.theres plenty out there..i think that page will give more infos..

so all i have to do is download the skins and run them on the phone? skin with m2dc formats, you mean there are skins are M2DC instead of just M2D that i should run?
sorry if im giving you a lot of questions, XDA is a little confusing, the forums i mean. just not used to it..
i dont install themes, im just add into my folder MicroSD, and run M2DC to add the themes and apply that..i show u some themes what i mean
klik HERE and HERE again
i just search it using GOOLE, can u
When i clicked on M2DC, it asked me if M2D is installed... i downloaded the MyHTC rom, i thought it came with M2D on it? alksdjfalksj. hold on, let me try and figure this out.

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?

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

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?
I am a dutty rom freak and install everything he puts out
his newest 6.1 rom rocks my socks
im not sure i like the red, even though it is growing on me
i think dutty linked to an alternate skin but it was just for cube
i saw a rom by SLither with a BADASS skin, but im not putting any non dutty rom on my piece
anywhere i can get roms for Dutty 6.1 ...oh and yes i did forum searxh first

ROM's for Dutty...what do you mean by that...you mean applications?
i think he meant skins, colors, etc...right?
He is probably confused that the UI colors are exclusive to a certian rom, all you need is to install a cab that adds the theme to your device, no rom flashing needed. Once you have one rom you can add anything to it that can be installed via cab or from active sync via computer.
i do mean skins ...like the slither rom skin is SICK, so cool
i need some good skins
try the HTC Home Customizer. i like it. works for me...
where do i find some slick .cabs ...not just mircosoft BS
also how the hell can u get the customizer to wotk in 6.1... i love it in 6.0 but now it wont change my clock, nor icons

I'd like to know that too. I flashed Dutty's WM6.1 into my Kaiser and installed HTC Home Customizer, but it won't change anything.

Thanks, it's kinda working now. Maybe I'll have to reset, but I'm expecting an important call, so I'll hold off for a while.

Ok you got to it before I could edit it. Internet went out for a few.
Same thing just a few extra steps in the method described previously. Things should be good after a reset.

Hi,
Sorry if this is a question that's been asked before but I can't seem to find it by searching.
I recently installed the mod that allows you to put your wallpaper on all the manila tabs (mUn BackGround4AllPages v.02.cab), but since doing it I've noticed that a border remains at the top of each tab and my wallpaper is cut-off by it.
On my home tab, it doesn't look too bad as the date is shown in this border. Similarly in the music tab it looks kind of intentional as the shuffle and repeat icons are in there. But it looks awful on most other tabs - screenshots below!
Is this to do with the wallpaper mod I installed, or is there something else I can do to extend my wallpaper into this border?
Thanks!!
There's a cab floating around called nocurtains.cab.
You might want to try that.
I haven't tried it but it seems to do what you are looking for.
thanks! "curtains" was the phrase i needed in order to search

Hi...
Just a quick question...
are u using a theme or do you have TouchPRO Vodafone TF3D...
and if so what version TF3D do you have? (Settings Tab->about.....)
Yes I'm using Vodafone TF3D - not sure where in the about list I can see the TF3D version, butmy ROM version is 1.90.161.5 if that helps.

ok... do you know where I can download that ROM?
(or the TF3D manila files)
It's not in the about list... it's on the button (that changes colour when u press it)
I think there is a download for the TF3D scheme halfway down this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2687462
I downloaded it today as a restorable backup in case I decide to change my theme - but I haven't tried it yet. Let me know what it's like if you decide to try it No idea if the Vodafone Rom is available yet though ...

I think that's the old Vodafone TF3D from Diamond...
I found a Vodafone Raphael 1.90.161.5 ROM here...
http://rapidshare.com/files/147978863/vodafone.rar.html
btw.. you don't have to have a backup manilas to go back to original...
just delete all manila files from windows... (if u have TF3D in the ROM!)
and the original will be there (can't delete ROM files...)
Ok cool thanks. I know next to nothing about themes and editing for TF3D but I'm going to be doing lots of reading up!
If I was a bit more savvy I'd be glad to help you getting the Vodafone TF3D for you but I have no idea where to even start! If I have any luck I'll certainly post here

How do you get a transparent glass looking taskbar and softkeys like the ones featured in the ENERGY rom? I have looked around, and I can't find anything that allows me to just change those two things to look like that.

Hey... i got problems too... got it transparent... but not the rest...
thanks a lot. I finally got it going myself bro.
Only problem I have now is I can't combine it to work with max manila...
whenever I install max manila I have a white background and can't change it anymore.
I found these files through the forum, they are not mine, but it will help, either install the cabs or use resco explorer to overwrite the manila files.

i want to try to make a windows xp theme for 6.5.X.
i thought, that would be cool, because the start button is on the lower taskbar..
i have a strong opinion of how it will look like, but i don´t know anything about creating themes for windows phone..
what programs can i use for creating this? i have read about microsoft custom theme creator, but when i load it, it says: there aren´t any windows phone 6.5 pro devices for your locale...
and i can´t load it..
what do all the others use for creating themes???
after i made 1 version for VGA, i will try to create all the other versions!
thanks, Downlord
You should first find all the files that you want to skin and then use a program like GIMP to mod or create your the files for your theme.
I think it's a great idea, too bad you are a bit late Check this http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7848598&postcount=2
hm, looks cool, i didn´t knew it, ill try it!
but i thought of something thats really a theme for 6.5.X, and i want to know in general, with which program i can make those themes..

/windows on your phone .
The easiest way is to download someone else's theme and see what files they skinned. You can then modify those ones or find the stock ones in your kitchen ( or /windows on your phone). You can edit manila graphics with cfcgui by Chainfire. Some things are just png's/bmp's/etc. for windows tsk's, but you also control some system colors in the registry (changed when you change a tsk).
You should really change your title to Question??? or something. Right now it looks like you make a theme for every device (except maybe hvga), and it sounds like you have a while before it will be complete.
waiting for qvga
how can i change it to a question??
