Lockscreen background also in other menu's - Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps

Since my update to WM 6.5 offical ROM my lockscreen background also displayed in other menu's (settings and my start menu). How can I change it that the background only is displayed at my lockscreen?

You should be able to set all of them through the settings tab, personalizations.
If not the start menu picture is found in windows folder stwater.jpg and the today screen is tdwater.jpg.

I don't know what you mean, maybe my English is to crap
So in my settings menu personlizations I can change my background, I've did that before and it just works fine. I can't remember that there was an option to get them all at my backgrounds.
How can I manage it that I can have my background only at my screen lock. If the rest is black I'm fine by that At the moment I'm using LockDevice, and I don't want to go back to S2U2 where I can manage it how I like it.

LockDevice is a simple utility and only used the default today background, unlike S2U2 that can be customized.
I suggest a program called AutoWallpaper Changer. You can set it to change Today, TF3D and S2U2 at various intervals. If you use TF3D, you can uncheck it to be changed and change the today screen which would then be picked up by LockDevice.
Sorry I do not have a better solution.

No problem, thnx anyway

Look at post #38 on page 4 in this thread.
You have to edit the "LS_Global_480x800.cpr" file to be able to have
diffenrent backrounds in Lockscreen and WM 6.5 StartMenu.
It works on Topaz, I tried it myself.

Problem with wallpaper too light

So I'm having trouble with my today wallpaper and the TF3D background wallpaper. I'm using the first image as the jpg (480x640) as the wallpaper. It looks fine. The second and third pictures are my today screen and home touchflo screens. You should be able to tell that the wallpaper is faded now, but on my SecondToday screen the wallpaper looks fine. Is there something I can do to correct this problem? I've searched the forums and all throughout my device, but I can't find a way to correct the problem.
I'm using Energy ROM 2 with Showaco's backgroup wallpaper for all tabs. Is there a way I can bypass the setting of the wallpaper and just copy the image as another name? Where is the wallpaper stored?
If you set your wallpaper in your Today settings it automatically gives it like 40% transparency. No way I have found to change this. However, if you go to Manila settings and change it there, it should have no transparency.
If that doesn't work, try setting your manila wallpaper with this program.
Also for the actual today screen, try this program if you like it to change occassionally.
Thanks Bruce for the suggestions. The Diamond background changer didn't work either. I really don't care about the Today screen being faded, but the manila wallpaper being faded is really annoying.
Anyone else have a suggestion?
Sorry man, I don't have these issues at all.
My backgrounds all look fine.
Go to Pictures and Video (the default picture viewer), and select your picture. Then, select "Use this as home screen / background".

this is the key..no extra apps and 100% success everytime....
I found a solution. I uninstalled Showaco's All tabs background and reinstalled it and it fixed the problem. I don't know what caused it to begin with, but at least now its' fixed.

"Lock-Screen" wallpaper changer ?

Hello,
I wonder if anyone knows a program that can change "Lock-Screen"/Start wallpaper ? It should be able to open folder of wallpapers and that user could set time - "how often to change wallpaper".
Most of Wallpaper Changers / Switchers can change only Today's Screen wallpaper.
I need to to change wallpaper of Locked screen, for example once in a hour.

As long as it's changing the standard WinMo background then it will work just fine, the lock screen just uses the standard WinMo background for it's own. That's why it's the same as the screen that's behind the start menu.

I mentioned that most of software change only Today Wallpapers, but not "Lock-Screen" / Start wallpapers. Yes, Lock-screen and Start Menu wallpapers are the same, but is there software which can change it periodically ?
Anyone? I want to know too!
there is:
"BG4allTAB" or "background for all tabs" which makes the home tab background picture background for all other tabs (at least in manila 2.1)-not lockscreen.
there`s also "Jmz Lockscreen Changer v2.0" which is background picture changer for wm6.5 lock-screen.
hope this helps...
Im using this software on my touch HD (wm6.5) but it should work on HD2 also
this is for manual changing of walls, not automatic (periodically).

hd wallpaper only in the home...is possible???

sorry guys!!!
is it possibile to have a full screen wallpaper (using HQ wallpaper patch) only in the home!!!
i have installed this cab and my home is very beautiful but now i don't read a sms and menus on colored background.
thanks guys
wich rom are you using, and what is your hometab?
Maxmanila, co0kie's hometab, another?
my rom is 1.66.408.1
my manila is 2.5.1921...
i use only hq wallpaper patch on my device and i edit my wallpaper in my computer with hdwall 0.28..
thank you for your help!!!
For only the stock rom with HD patch I'm not sure. At the moment I'm using Maxmanila hometab and then you can select to use a different homescreen background then rest of the menu. I'll try to look it up for you, but you may consider using the Maxmanila mod. Because I know for sure you can use it then.
HDWall has an option called "HTC Sense v2.5 - Home Tab - No Compression".

If you are talking about the patch that makes the upper taskbar and the lower soft button bar part of the wallpaper so it is kind of full screen on Sense and Lock/Start menu, it is a system wide patch so it means it will appear on every screen.
Uninstall the patch and select the wallpaper in Manila settings. Then it will be displayed only on the hometab.... unfortunately you won't have the wallpaper in the taksbar and bottombar. You could recreate those two (top and bottom) images and set them in registry, but then they appear everywhere again.
For so far as I know these are the only options.

General question's

I have some questions about Htc diamond 2...
How can i change the themes of my device?
Where can i find it?
Its possible to disable the internet acess?(sometimes, by mistake i turn it on and spend me money...)
If im posting in the wrong place, please tell me where can i post.
Thanks
Themes:
On WM6.1. Settings. Personal tab. Today. Select your theme, then press OK.
Disable internet:
On WM6.1, this is how I did it. Settings. Connections tab. Connections. There should be some options like My Work. You can either delete these, or just change the settings to something totally different.

Hi there...Thanks for the help.
In the internet problem i changed the settings and it seemĀ“s to work nice now...thanks...
But in the themes i change the themes where you told me but, i didin't noticed any change...i mean, it seems that the only thing that changed was the color of the text...
When changing the themes, did you want to change the Manilla theme? As in, the whole slider/weather/clock?
If so, that is slightly different. You need to install CAB files that change each bit you want. So if you want a slider that has a transperant background, then install the CAB that does that. If you want different icons on each tab in the slider, then that is harder again. You need to unpack the CAB for a slider, insert your own icons, then re-pack the CAB, then install.
If you are just wanting to change the background in the home tab of Manilla (clock, weather [if WM6.5], calender), then slide across to settings, click Wallpaper, click on No, then choose your picture.

...i want to change first screen, the slider,weather, clock...but i dont know what to install...and what is manila??Is some kind of theme??
I look for manila in the search tryng to see something but i cant find a explanation about it...it looks that everyone knows what is manila and i'm the only one that dont...
Thanks
Manila is like a program running on top of the windows. go to Settings > Personal tab > Today, under "item" tab you will see "HTC sense" checked. HTC sense is the manila.
if you don't wanna use manila, just uncheck it (HTC sense) and you will have a empty today screen. Or choose "windows default" if you wanna use "titanium" that came with winMo.
if you wanna customized the way manila display, Co0kie's Home Tab is a good option. else if you wanna totally change the appearance, go for theme like Maxsense or anything else you can find.
if you wanna change the taskbar icon, find some cab over this forum will do the work.

Earth (Globus) background picture?

Hello,
is it possible to setup a Globus (Earth) background picture in my HD2 (with Energy ROM) similar with the IPhone one? It would be great to have it allways as background: in TouchFlo, lock-screen and dialer... Is it possible? If yes, how can I do this (and where to find the corresponding files)?
Thanks in advance!

You can set the background images for anything you want. Where you set them will depend on whether you have a standard Energy ROM or one with CHT (cookies home tab) installed. If it is CHT then it is simple to change all of your wallpapers - press CHT menu softkey and then Set Wallpaper - you'll find options in there for everything.
If you are not on CHT then you set the home tab and lockscreen backgrounds from the Sense settings tab > Personalise, and you set the Start Menu background from Start Menu > Settings > Home then check the 'Use this picture...' box at the bottom of the Appearance tab and press Browse to select your background image.
The dialer isn't so simple but if you ask in lnando84's dialer skins thread I'm sure he'll be able to help.
