Hello,
Is there any way to remove that big clock from HTC Home.
I'we been looking some options in HTC Home Customizer but no success.
Thanks
I guess you can just remove n°1 in the registry there:
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Tabsetting". Default is "1,2,3,4,5,6"
it is kinda big... I like having the time there because I use wisbar advance and the time isnt displayed anywhere else but it could use a face life... maybe a smaller font and centered instead of large font and off to the right.
That would leave room for more plugins on the today screen which comes in very handy in my opinion.
Hey all,
Well, after searching around I haven't quite found anything fits what I want. Wouldn't it be nice to have a today-screen plugin (I would be using TodayLife if it was a plugin) that is completely customizable, by let's say, XML? TodayLife came pretty close, but I would like to display the Windows Start menu and taskbar on it.
Does anyone know something like this?
thanks
Let's see... I think RLToday and XIAMultiTheme would be good.
But these are pretty well known, I assume you already checked them, why aren't they suitable? They are today plugins and are customizable by XML files.
Oh, and there also is Throttle Launcher, but I have no idea how to customize it.
What about Wisbar Advance Desktop?
It can act like a today plugin (i.e. replace the today screen completely). It's very customizable and powerful, you can set the taskbar and/or bottom bar visible/invisible and integrate the normal today plugins into it.
How about homescreen++?
yep, Homescreen Plus Plus (BatteryStatus) is XML...many themes already created on their thread.
I'm sorry, but isn't HomeScreen++ just a battery status and a clock?
moved to Q&A section.
please, refer to the rules.
thank you
Buuf Theme based on Buuf icons made by Paul Davey (aka mattahan - http://mattahan.deviantart.com/gallery/)
Buuf analogue clocks (Sniper-wolf)
Buuf digital clocks (Rawrscary, Degake, Sniper-wolf+Degake background)
Buuf icons (Rurph) - a mix of Buuf Deuce icons, the shape of iReflect icons and the backgrounds made by popdog54 (ppcgeeks)
To replace icons, you need to use either JWMD or CSMI icon changer. links are http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567080 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589459. short tutorials on how to use these apps are in the respective threads. once you have replaced the icons, you will need to delete Sense icon cache. for that use Sense Icon Cache Clearer - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=662233
For the second and third Buuf icon packs, check post 7
For the icon background psd template, check this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7237519&postcount=1033
Buuf sliders (Rawrscary with white box1&with transparent box2, Sniper-wolf)
Buuf add-ons for CHT 1.8 + music button fix (Degake, Rawrscary)
Check post 7
Buuf hq wallps/HD wall cabs (Rurph, Franwella)
To have the same background (as on the homescreen) on other tabs, you need first to install the right version of Cookie's patch for the manila version you are using. the patch can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529730
After that you need to install one of the hd wall cabs, choose the cab of the image you like and install, you will get the same wallpaper on all tabs + a high quality wallpaper on the home screen
Buuf people, internet, calendar, music, weather tabs (Rawrscary/Degake)
For these tabs, check post 6 (there are all-in-one cabs for manila 1921 and 2012). Those having problems with the robot image not showing up in the calendar tab, try one of Rawrscary's calendar cabs (see post 7)
Buuf email tab, endscreen, volume control (Degake)
For these mods, check post 6

Before installing any parts, please back-up your phone just to be on the safe side
Big thanks to CJ Lippstreu from pocketnow.com for the video review
Frequently asked questions:
Q: Is there an all-in-one cab for this theme?
A: At the moment there is no such cab. The reasons are first, we have made several versions for the same parts (like analogue/digital clocks, sliders), so people can choose the one they like and second, since we are still working on the theme, it is easier for us to deal with any bugs/problems having seperate cabs.
Q: Will there be an all-in-one cab?
A: Yes, once we comlete customising all parts.
Q: Do I need to install Cookie´s Home Tab first?
A: Apart from the analogue clocks/cht-addons, you don´t need, but it is adviceably to get the full advantage of your phone and the theme.
Q: Do I need to have Manila/Sence 2.5?
A: Yes
Q: How to install the parts?
A: Download a zip file to your pc, extract & copy a cab file to your phone´s internal memory or storage card, using a file explorer on your phone find & tap that cab file, install it on the device and then soft reset/restart your phone.

There is also a matching slider out there that matches. I think it is called way out there or way out there 2. Sumpin like that.
Thank you guys, much appreciate your support
The theme could be ready soon, just need to find an expert who will be willing to customise the taskbar, stock flip clock, slider and any other stuff that can go with the theme

Wow! Looks great so far mate
Hi... I remember requesting a Buuf theme couple weeks back and I'm thankful that some people out here shares the same idea with me. I'm hoping that you'll be able to make a complete theme like the GTX or Fallout theme out here with the slider bar as well. However, is it possible to change the stock icons to the Buuf icons by overwriting the stock ones in the windows folder or something? Because I hesitate to change it with the icon changer software and it's kinda like a waste of space by having an additional software just for the icons? Secondly, I believe by using such app I need the new icon files to be kept in the phone or the SD card. But still I'm happy enough that you're developing a theme based on Buuf. Thank you so much and can't wait for the full release.
Looks different, nice work
Thanks man, doing my best

Hi leewenxu,
Yeah, I saw the thread you started, even posted some links there
Frankly saying I have no idea whether you can overwrite the stock icons. Personally, I installed JWMD Icon Changer, which is very easy to use.
As regards the free space, yeah the new icons will take some space on the internal memory or storage card, depends where you keep them. I keep them in the storage card and they take around 5-7 mb not more. Even if it was like 100-200 mb, I would still change them, since I couldn't stand the stock icons
But I guess it is a personal decision
Thanks for your support by the way

I have posted a new screenshot with the new icons I have made today
not common=good. Nice work..!! I really like the icons.
Looking good...
Top work so far!
Can't wait for more - then I will have the hard time choosing BUUF over FALLOUT
EDIT: A BUUF slider request can be found here:

Buuf slider
here's a quick slider I put together, It's still missing footprints, face book and twitter icons so if you have them i'll happily add them to it. Let me know if you want me to change / move the icons around. Also what do you think of a slider bar something like this?
after a hefty search which resulted in a big gulsh of info, has left me even more confused
all i want to do is make my taskbards (the black bar at the top and bottom of the screen) to either partly transparent or any colour i wish, and also this is something cookie tab already does well, changes all the backgroudns of all the tabs to whatever i want (Which i love, thanks cookie), but how do i select which backgroudns for which tab??
can someone answer this, im totally confused and frustrated right now
long live leo !!
Hi! You can download Cookie's home tab 1.8.5, install both the language pack and the program. Then you can press "menu" and change backround, from there you can change backround in the taskbars to mach your backround.
Sorry for bad explanation, but i'm not any good at english
You can get the files from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625483
yes, cht 1.8.5 does that, but for anyone who doesnot want to use cht (why would any one not use cht????!!!...lol), you can use bwizard for taskbars and bg4all...for backgrounds
Been browsing around here and following the skyraider and all of ID's threads and there was something I felt was missing from both the sense and vanilla roms. I spent a bunch of time on the regular android theming threads, and this is what I have created so far.
It's in no way a fully polished, and easily flashed or MM'd theme (i don't like the idea of using MM)
See the pictures below for what I've gotten to.
What it consists of:
LauncherPro Plus
Apps Organizer
SwitchPro
TAJM
BattStatt
Pure Calendar
Desktop Visualizer
MinimalText icons
LauncherPro icons (from their website)
Zegoe Font
Sweet Chicago skyline background
I used LauncherPro to get a more customizable screen layout and remove the notification bar. I also love that it lets me change the icons for the dock (and the swipe gestures are nice)
Apps Organizer condenses a lot of my used apps, and Apps Organizer lets you pick custom icons as well
I used to use extended controls and SMODA widget but i didnt like SMODA's colors, so i switched to SwitchPro because of its working 3g on/off (a must since I need my battery to last a full day while I'm on campus). You cant clearly make the buttons out on the bottom, but they are nearly invisible until i touch them and they become white. Might not be everyone's liking but I dont need to see them.
Pure Calendar was used since I rely on my calendar and gtasks, and it was transparent which is what I really wanted.
Here's where I could use some help
I would like to be able to change all app icons to grayscale without using MM. I realize this might mean replacing files within apks for programs which wont be entirely possible
I wish the text size for TAJM was customizable, its too small and I would like BattStatt and TAJM to better use the home screen real estate
Package this into something more people can use/ customize without having to download all of the apps seperately or even use the apps (flashable?)
Still need a new lock screen. I liked the rotary one but I dont think that will look as nice since it uses a gray transparent bg. If it could be fully transparent, just leaving the two buttons, and the music controls either be light gray for off and white for on, that would be awesome.
I'm open to ideas and criticisms, just spent a few hours this weekend trying to gather all I needed but if someone knows a better way I'd love to know.
If there is any interest in this, I could package up the icons and fonts (sorry can't do the apks since most are paid apps). Just need to collect the info for the creators so credit can be given.
