Definately uncompressed
Which stock rom? 1.66?? (if so, let me know how it works )
Grtz,

Tmous stock. I'm loading this beast up now i'll let you know.
I actually was less impressed when i put it on the machine. I couldn't for the life of me get the taskbar or softbar on my phone to change so it really took away from what the them could have been.
I went back to stock but if i could figure out how to get it to look like the example pictures they give then i'd go back in an instant.
I love the theme!! Only thing left to be done is to change the start menu font colour to black.

I tried to install this but the clock disappears. do i need to change the theme from the home settings. I had followed the instructions as mentioned in the thread but facing this issue. Please advice
Im scared to install it on my HD2 running stock ROM 1.72.831.1 because it reports the manilla version as 1.0.19211620.0 and I have hearded that it can't be "uninstalled".
Anyone tried it?

Do you have an Asian HD2?
Haven´t tried that one, actually, I have a European device...
About the second question: It´s true, uninstalling a theme like GTX may not be as effective as a hard reset.
Therefore, even if you test GTX by yourself on your device and if you discover too many issues, you can always hard reset your phone.
Yeah its a HK HD2.
I really don't want to hard reset cos I have many hours of customisation work gone into it. I might give it a shot nxt time I ipgrade the ROM before I tweak anything else
Yeah its better if it is the first thing what you install on your new rom other wise you get problems etc...

You should use SASHIMI to make the customization process much more easy.
I started to use it everytime I flash a new rom and it is one of the most useful apps out there
You can restore also regs, copy files, install cabs...all automated.
Excuse me for this little OT

Why don't you make a backup of your device, with e.g. Sprite, PimBackup etc?
If you first make a backup and install GFX and you notice it has too much bugs/problems, you can just hard reset your phone and put your backup back

Now theres an idea
Thanks! Super :good:

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....

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?
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

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.

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 ...

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

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...

lol, i know that i have Titanizer, i dont mean adding 3rd party plugins to carousel i mean whan u have realVGA on it makes screen appear bigger but u still only see 5 things form carousel (even if u have more) its just its look have lots of empty space around it, like the Font of the carousel appears to be smaller as it meant to fit 240x240 but whan u get full vga of 320x320 font size dose not increase, so there should be a Registry value to change font size or Registry value to change size of that see-through frame around carousel tabs to allow more to b shown on screen at a time...
PS. would post screen shots of what i mean but i wll have to do hard reset, and atm i need my phone working so i might do it l8r..

Sorry to be a dunce, but I can't get this working on my Topaz. I installed the cabs, but nothing. It's not showing up on the settings screen as a theme, so I'm stumped. I'm running the official HTC 6.5 ROM at the moment.

Its for Manila 2.5, I'm pretty sure the official 6.5 only has 6.1, so it will not work.

On another note: What build of manila are you using? Not the version, but the build
iam using the 2.5.1921 version but ive also tested it on the latest energy roms with the latest manila.

Thanks for your quick and helpful reply. Now all I need to do is to work out how to upgrade to 2.5, can I do this without flashing a completely new ROM?
I'll have a little search to see if I can find the solution.
Cheers
EDIT: I can see now that I need to flash a ROM that already has 2.5 in it. Any suggestions? The last time I flashed a new ROM, I had to go back to the official 6.5 because my GPS went mad. It was showing that I was about 400km away from where I actually was, at 15,000m altitude, travelling at around 400km/h.

If you want to change from Manila 2.1 to 2.5 you have to flash another rom...
You can start reading the stickys in the Rom Development section.
Thank you! Any slider is better than the awful (IMHO) original sense 2.5, but this one is really cool and finally woking in my ROM! (with sense 2.5.19211619.0). Is there a way to get the original black-on-white clock?
EDIT: I just noticed that my bottom bar is not like the one in the screenshot, no big deal, since the slider was my main concern.Anyway I'd like to have it aswell, so any help is welcome.
Works great, thanks for this. Much better than the awful theme in the new energy Roms
iam working on some new slider designs because i definitely agree, they are a bit bland. as to the theme that i have in that pic iam using ahens black theme. you can find in the windows theme sections.
nice theme, more relaxing for my eyes than the default one. thanks
EDIT: @bcruz410 .. Thanks !!
Thanks - these look much better than the defaults! Any chance you can do the 'stocks' icon as well - it looks a little out of place among your new versions. Thx
I like it very much, but the sense in my phone is still 2.1.......
@bcruz410
Wonderful theme... Can you please add those two missing icons (Stocks and Footprints) as well, as that would make the slider tabs completely skinned
Thank you very much for your efforts...
i've downloaded and installed the theme but nothing has changed..how do I have to do? I've manila 2.5.. txs
I absolutely love the clock here, but lately it's gotten thrown out of alignment. I'm not sure exactly what's doing it, but I suspect that it's Max Manila. I'm using the latest Energy ROM.
It seems that the clock background gets elongated, which throws everything below it out of alignment; the weather text appears in between the clock background and the split backgrounds for the weather stuff, and then the split backgrounds end up being behind the Calendar header (date and alarm status).
Any chance you might revisit the clock? I really haven't found any other clock that I like as much as this one, and I've tried I should also note that I haven't had any alignment issues with any other clock that I've tried, although most of them have just been solid (no transparent gaps).
nicely done!
