Wallpaper in all tabs (Manila 2.6) ?? - General Questions and Answers

Hey,
Is there a program to change the wallpapers in the tabs in manila 2.6??
The HDWallpaper program doesn't work with 2.6, only with 2.1
And the standard wallpapers are soooo UGLY

Nobody..
I searched google and this topic was the first result

LOL
Lol, I too got here via google.
I've tried several, but every one messes up the home tab. I know one from Rotastrain used to work, but on 2.5.19201130 it does not work...
Hope someone has a bgfor all tabs that works
Edit: After reading a few threads I came up with a working cab (I just installed and it works):

Manila Mods

As far as I know there aren't a lot lot raph's owner editing their manila to add a calendar, call history or comm manager tab. I bumped into all kinds of wall's when I tried to add an calendar tab. After a lot of searching and trying I can't get manila editor 2.0 to recognize the 26948339_manila file, It just doesn't see it for some reason. Anybody else tried and succeeded? Or to add other tabs? This could be the thread where different kinds of manila mods on raphael could be discussed. I'll posted it here when I have found a solution, cheers
These are some of the tabs, already in the diamond forum, Calendar, comm manager and Call history
Hi!
I currently have the calendar and commanager tabs working on my touch pro.
I took me some working to get them there, but i did it.
Try installing the theme posted on the link below, it has both tabs and is basically the original theme with the greens changed into blue (my creation).
You can apply the theme with Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool v 3.2.
Here you go: http://www.mediafire.com/?oxbz2eayvgu
Cheers and good luck.
Real nice thank you! Did you do this with manila editor? You mean to say open with TF3D config right? Either way can't seem to open it (i did use AC 3.2 and). Must be doing something wrong...
First, you got it right, I meant the Diamond TF3D Config instead of configurator, sorry for the mistake.
What version of the TF3D config are you using? I'm using 0.6.7 and i've just installed this very same theme after having changed to another one previously....
Where/how are you trying to install the theme? Are you going in the "appearence", selecting the directory where you placed the .theme file clicking on "path", selecting the theme it self on the drop down list, then clicking on "apply" and hitting "start"...
Maybe you missed some of these steps?
Anyways, take a further look and search into the diamond themes threads, you may find your way...
Cheers.
I would love a "tasks" tab...

Hey man thanks for replying did all that but it doesn't show, also have the latest version(apptodate), maybe it has thye wrong format. I'm on romeos. Here are some screenshot's. But could you also tell me how you edited these because I cannot get manila editor the read 26948339_manila. Anyway thans a lot , cheers
I'm out of ways to try to edit 26948339_manila (to add a calendar tab to manila), there is just no way this file is seen by manila editor 0.2. I'm using this on vista, maybe someone else has some info...
I have managed to install comm manager via this cab
Use a notepad like application (windows XP Notepad worked for me), not the manilla editor. Don't forget to change the file attributes to "writeable" (not read-only) prior to editing it.
Good luck.

Now my default theme. Thankyou. I was bored with the Vodafone one.
The call history page locks up each time I switch to it. Everything else works perfectly. What am I missing?
I succeeded in getting either a calendar tab or comm manager tab. Will attach the manila files, which are those created by D-MAN666 + 26948339_manila I edited (thanks cassiano)
Ok I succeeded in installing both of the tabs, with the above cab and these manila files (copy them to your windows folder with total commander). Something new has come up though, my home screen calander link became unresponsive (it doesn't link any more)

I had the same issue...and think it was because I loaded the Calendar tab first. Blob8Me has 14 tabs total with no issues, but went in a sequence that allowed it. I don't want to remove my calendar tab to install the call history tab first. Holding my ground with just 12 tabs.

I'm still using the Diamond Forum for most developments as much of the work done there works for the Raphael seemlessly - not all, but most. The next major development I'm waiting for is the ability to apply the Home wall-paper to all Tabs in TF3D but this doesnt quite work yet although I made some small progress with mun_rus's work for the Sprint Diamond - see post #78 in link bellow!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432951&page=8
So - changes I've made since my last post here - I've added a sound settings tab - that gives me 14 active and useful tabs now I've added the analog clock to my home Tab - loosing the call history & appointment but I have the call history tab and still get my reminders for appointments. I've also added the VGA battery icon and tweaked the Titles on a couple of pages.
Current Tabs are:
Home - Of Course!
Speed Dial (People Tab)
Messages
Mail (Blackberry Connect & Emoze Free Push email client - www.emoze.com - both in use - very happy)
Jeff's Day (D-Man666's Calendar Tab)
Call History
Weather
Ohoto's & Videos
Music
Internet
Comm Manager (IDS_Communications Tab)
Settings
Programs
Sound Settings (Sound Tab)
A few (but not all) screenshots attached for info -those with the wallpaper as a background (weather, calendar) are as a result of woring on the background changer from mun_rus - please search this and the Diamond forum before asking for cabs, code etc.....
So - Lets see some more activity on the forum from Raphael users...... we do, after all have the best phone available in the world at the moment?

Yes, because the Call History and Calendar had the same number. Moved the Call History to page 11. Still locked when I went into the tab. Just uninstalled. I will install the Call History first after I install the Elite Rom (once released). Not sweating about it right now.
I was looking to reactivate the non responsive calendar link on the home screen but I suddenly got another tab added (the unresponsive link seems to be caused by mun_rus' Backgound Image on All Pages)

To be honest (having done a lot of this) I find that the standard notebook app that comes with windows is fine for basic edits????
.
I installed the Calendar tab on my Touch Pro - everything is working except the month and days are displayed as IDS_CALENDAR_xxxxxxx (xxxx being the name of month/day).
Where is this filed substituted?
Nevermind, I got it - the zip did not include one important file. I got it from elswhere, now it works.

Top border in TF3D - removal?

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

wallpaper in tabs!

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! =)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503511
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...

Manila 3D (TF3D) from HD

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

HDWall issue

I am attempting to use HDWall to skin my background for starviews fallout theme, but after I install the cab, it only skins the top and bottom bar. I have tried installing and uninstalling countless times, as one thread suggested, and I have installed and uninstalled the HQ wallpaper patch, and both times, no luck. Please help.
I have searched now for 3 days, and posted in two forums asking, and I see I'm not the only one having this issue.

It looks like that you not use Cookies Home Tab.
When not using Cookies Home tab you need to install the High quality wallpaper patch. But this Patch must fit to your manila version.
Which manila version is yours you can see as follow:
slide to Seetings--->about phone--->Software information.
Cookies Home Tab can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633590
The patch can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529730
The best way is to use Cookies Home Tab 1.8.5 because you dont need the wallpaper patch!
I have cookies home tab, so it isn't that.my manilla is 2.5.2012 I can put a accredit up if that helps?
Figured out the issue, so for everyone else having this problem, cookies newest home tab has hd wall and the patches already included. if you download those two AFTER you already have cookies, it will mess it up.so, what I did was uninstall the patch and hdwall and then cookies.reinstall cookies then download your hdwall cab.
This is what i have wrote in my post.
