I installed Manilla 2D over Schaps 3.54b ROM for Tytn.
As i loved the skin Shifu made for his cooked Kaiser ROM v 3.0 called "Rock and Republic brown", and as i didn't find this theme anywhere i tried to apply this skin to my Tytn copying from Kaiser all the images beginning with "hh_" plus "HTCHomeSettings.xml", "Wallpaper.jpg", "wallpaperL.jpg" and "HH_0410_WeatherCities.xml" in Tytn's Windows folder and then applying "Rock and Republic Brown.tsk" theme in Today settings.
The result i got is shown in the second picture below. The first one is the correct look the theme actually has on Kaiser.
I'm wondering how i can change color of the purple upper and lower frames to match the original look and how to adjust the background frame of clock in the correct position. Clock also lacks of colon and displays an undesirable flipping every minute change, not enough some text around is missing.
Surely this is not an hard task for a skin guru, anyone can help me understand a little more?
Many thanks to the community.
Anyone can help?
Moved as not theme release....
Really anyone can help?

You will need...
Touchflo Settings(which can be found in the rom)
You can find custom Cubes here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1462418&postcount=1
You can find custom icons here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1463129&postcount=7
Original HTC Touch Icons -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1480917&postcount=142
So far I've only got the icons to work if you have a custom background
Dimensions 240x320
Name = AL_Bkgd.png
All icons must be 119x105 and in png format also...I'll probably be on the forums all night, so I should be responding to questions really quick. Also Resolution should be 72.009...I'm using adobe photoshop to make icons
You will need to put the AL_Bkgd.png file in your \Windows directory. After doing that your custom icons should show up.
Nice work mate I will include this in the final rom
Wow...Thank you...I basically know how to do everything BUT create the cube now...and that's only because I haven't tried...Thanks to all the people in the ELF forum...I would post screenie of my cube, if I hadn't broke my USB plug
Hi,
i have testing with the dpi settings for the display and i think 96dpi is realy good to working. But there some bug's and no i ask me if any rom cooker can make a nice rom with 96dpi support. I have seen that win6.1 working on a typhoon with 96dpi by 176x220px ... the vox have 131dpi by 240x320px ... so can anyone help me ?
some images
Hm looks pretty good. How do you change to different DPi"
I've found you just need to set the registry values [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\ Display\GPE\LogicalPixelsY] and LogicalPixelsX to 96 in decimal
But for now it's quite buggy..some icons on titlebar are missing
Information source here
It changes icons messages home screen only letters in menus are at the same size
It needs some DLL editing from what i'm reading
Here are some shots
as you can see here the icons of the signal and battery are missing
Here is how the homescreen appears
Hm I noticed the icon problems. When you use the icon bar replacement it works on the homescreen otherwise it doesn't. You also need adjustments for the grid view in the start menu, it doesn't show enough icons, but that should be changeable via reg key too. You need the dll for the icon bar, then you can adjust that too!
EDIT: Yes, you also need bigger backgrounds!
Yes in the linked article they say how to solve the icons issue and why the problem exists but it's for Wm2003 so I haven't tried yet...
OT: thank you frau with your (and others obviously) work with vonix and for the wiki
OK. I think tshres.dll is for the iconbar.
exactly is tshres
"tshres.96.dll: Bluetooth/Wi-Fi/system icons. It even contains PE (Phone Edition) icons.[/url] Locked by the shell32.exe, gwes.exe and device.exe"
The problem is, I just looked in the dll and there are not all the icons, that are usually in the icon bar, like battery icons are missing!
For me it's very painful to look for those icons using the dlls located on the phone..maybe using the kitchen or the OEM SYS folders provided by the DOC...but right know I do not have broadband connection...
Tell me which dlls you need. I'll upload them for you!
Thank you for your cooperation..I'll take a look at the guide this evening..now i do not have spare time...so i'll let you know...
Thanks in advance
nice to see that somebody intressting to this
my idea is to copy the 96dpi stuff form a typhoon rom to the vox rom, and cook this. After this it's going to the fine tune.
For the menu's the regkey's are
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\PopFnt
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\BarFnt
and set the value "ht" to 14-16 ... what you like ... 14 is realy small but good enouth to read ... 15 is i thing the ideal for this
For the Scrollbar (value in px ... 3-4 are good)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\cxVscr
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\cyHscr
Sounds good. Can you upload those files?
I have never cooked a rom befor, i have ask "ALEUT" the maker for wm6.1 for the typhoon if he can send me the files from his rom.
if he would send me ... i put them to a server
ore someone told me how i cook a rom ^^
i founded all the icons thanks to frauhottelman...now i have to know how to modify them to be compatible with the 96 DPI MODE.
we will be waiting for you to release something to make vox 96dpi
other than icons you have to make call screens also compatible wioth 96dpi

i think you may wait for a long time...i m not a programmer or whatever else...i've just tryed to do some dll substitution...and till now...this has resulted in phone hardresetting
I've used some 96 dpi dll found here on XDA but with no luck...
if any of you finds a way to just edit the dll we have this could be great.
Ive recently flashed my vodafone v1415 with the brilliant Dr Gonzos WM6.1 rom.
So far Ive been really pleased and had no issues other than being able to get a theme to be consistent.
Ive installed some WM6.1 themes from the forum here and they change the menu colours and background images but the call progress screens and branding brick are still the ones from the WM6.1 rom.
I know where all there images exist but do i have to customize theses each time i want to change my theme?
surely upon a new theme being installed theses should be changed accordingly?
Any help much appreciated!
Guy
Most themes do not set these screens. Complete ones that come packed as a CAB might add a new incoming/outgoing call screen, information screen and brandingbrick - however the majority of themes do not.
Thanks for the response.
Is there any way to either;
1) Get the original HTC ones installed?
or
2) Where could I find some .cab themes which would do this?
The different colours all over the place are highly annoying!!
Thanks
Hm, I can make you a cab with the original HTC version of branding brick and call screens, if that is what you want and if I can find the files! Otherwise, my in theme hread (signature), there are three version of branding brick and call screens which go nicely with my themes!
It isn't really a problem if I can just get hold of the files that would be fine.
Thanks
hey guys,
i know there are a bunch of threads out there already which deal with themes and tf3dconfig 0.6.7 and everything. but it seems like there's been quite a few issues with the original o2 ROM TF3D and the attempt to install the black htc theme.
I tried to use tf3dconfig 0.6.7 and use the diamond htc black theme here from the forum. The installation works quite alright, everything seems nice but the music player doesn't show the artist/genre/track/album horizontal menu and also is the list of applications black on black.
Maybe there are a few manila files missing or something?
I don't really want to flash my rom since there's only a beta out of the german romeos and i need a stable working phone - but the blue o2 theme is really ugly.
Are there any ideas out there what's going wrong and how to fix that problem? Or could you tell me which manila files have to be edited in order to see the custom menu bar in the music player and the black font color in the list of all applications?
I think this is also happening with the Vodafone Version of TF3D
Regards
Oli
Yes, I have the exact same problem as well with my Vodaphone Touch Pro, I've scouted through the forums for hours while at college and have not seen a solution for this, I'm guessing the only work around would be to flash the phone?
Same problem here. Have a MDA Vario IV (T-Mobile Version) and I have the same issue as you when installing the original theme.
I am searching for a solution for two days now and I haven't find anything yet.
I don't need the original HTC theme, I would be lucky with any "magentaless theme" that works.
I have found a working black theme, but it is on german.
for tf3d:

and for wm6.1:
http://rapidshare.com/files/131850418/Htc_black.zip.html
Now the colors are right, but I think tf3d is much slower now. I have already done all tweaks for optimizing the performance.
Is there any solution?
hey very cool!
but i think that version is older than my current one.
where'd you find that one?

I found it in this forum
http://www.ppc-phones.de/punforum/viewtopic.php?pid=56565
I installed the theme. It's not that slow that I can't use it but with the original T-Mobile theme TF3D was much faster.
well i installed it just now and it isn't slower than the o2 tf3d version really.
but if you go to settings -> connections this page appears still in blue in tf3d but i don't really mind that (i don't open that page too often since i have secondtoday)
do you know how i can change the dropdown background when i click on start in the upper left corner? cause that's still blue too
thanks
go to start - settings - today and there are the themes for wm6.1.
there you choose this file:
http://rapidshare.com/files/13185041...black.zip.html
(I copied it to the windowsfolder before selecting it in the settings)
with the t-mobile theme the first screen (the one with the clock) was there immediately when I switched to it on tf3d. now it needs half a second, but it is ok for me.
hi,
this rapidshare link doesn´t work.
any other link or solution? that blue o2 theme is soooo ugly
Im going to try and start a thread for collecting some mods and tweaks for Manila .1922 and above since it seems like a lot of tweaks that were collected for Sense 2.5 before actually break under .1922 and in some instances also crash Manila somteims requireing a hard reset.
Here is what i've found so far :
Max Ultimate Theme - This is a great utility for applying a bunch of popular tweaks all at once as part of a theme, has a settings panel to do on the fly customizations... very useful!
There are separate weaks available for BG4All and for the quicklinks, but since Max Ultimate covers most of them.... theres no need for that.
There is however a need for transparencies, such as bottom slider, top curtain, top bar, softkey bar, calendar, etc. These customizations are not applied with max Ultimate and its hard to find ones for .1922 or which ones will work with tha manila version. Changing the cloks is also not clear, you can try MaxTTM but some of the components work with .1922 and most of them dont.
HDWall is also a great utility to play around with some transparenices but does not seem to have a .1922 patch yet.
If you come across your .1922 tweaks, please post them here.
Thanks
Where can I donwload the 1922 from?
I have the default Orange 1919 one.
I know I miss using HDwall...I love windows 6.5.5 and 1922.....sometimes i want to go back...but I wont hope a patch is made soon. Doesnt seem like anyone is even working on it
so, can i get the 1922 on my htc touch orange branded?
