Had a little extra time on my hands and decided to make a couple of clocks for manila 2.5. First of all thanx to the creator of CFC GUI .60.35 - THE Manila/TF3D Image Editor and NRGZ28 for his carbon clock. I went ahead and made two variations of the carbon clock, a black carbon and blue carbon.
Here they are....
11/23/09 - Graffiti Clock
Really nice, but for what manila version are those clocks?
Since you see the shortcuts on the home page I guess it's the 2.5 brand.
That's looking real good!
I see that's winmo 6.5.1 that you are running, but what about the rest of the UI? that's a theme? It seems that the fonts and shortcuts down there are different.
What did you use to that effect?
Thanks!
Thanks! iam using the jw black theme for windows. the task bar i found while searching through the forums. And the shortcuts are from the manila 2.5. I just went ahead and edited the slider, icons, and clock. Still got some work to do before I completely customized my device!
[edit] nevermind! a search on jw black theme gave me a good result but! the wallpaper is real nice, any chance you could give more info on it? Thanks!
Looks real good, especially the 3rd one.
I am using the clock, but would like to get all the rest (at least the wallpaper and font).
Any chance you can be more specific about files names or maybe you could share what you created? That would be really great
THANKs .
not a problem, iam using the kabel system font, found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532633
and ive attached the wallpaper iam using.
as for the slider ill post that one as soon as iam done editing it. iam compiling icons that coincide with windows mobile (i.e. opera for the internet tab, zune for the music player, outlook express for email tab and so forth) it should be done soon, just editing the taskbar and softkey skins to match the slider.
Thank you for all the info
And for your hard work!
Cheers
any chance in making the "AM~PM" on the clock white also?
yeah new clock for my sense 2.5
Thanks a lot have been looking for a new clock for my sense 2.5 long time and yeah yours works.
Nice look these clocks!
here are the manila files for a white am and pm on the clock. just unzip and copy to windows directory.
any tutorial
Hi bruc410,
could you provide me a short tutorial how to make a clock skin for Manila 2.5?
or is there any tutorial in this forum?
Thanks!
You need photoshop, a manila editor (preferably cfc-gui-only-0.60.35), and finally the original manila 2.5 file, found here http://code.google.com/p/manilavga/...ManilaOriginalWVGA-2_5_19211619_0.7z&can=2&q=. All you have to do is unzip the manila files and then open up manila editor and select the core folder from your manila 2.5 file. From there just save the original clock files to your computer as a png then edit them to your liking and replace them with the manila editor. Finally copy the edited manila files to your windows directory. Thats about it. Sorry if my directions are a little thrown together but i pretty much figured this out on my own. The good thing is once you get the hang of it you can customize the entire manila 2.5. Hope this answers your question.

Hi, can someone explain me the difference between bg4all and HDWall?
Can i do the same things with it?

There may be additional differences, but from what I have noted, BG4All gets installed on your phone, whereas HDWall is used on your desktop to create new background image cabs.
BG4all enables setting any images as your wallpaper across all tabs, but they are low-res wallpapers. HDWall requires creating a new cab for each potential background image, but they are high-res.
Both require a variety of patches and fixes to work with other modifications to Sense, like Co0kies Home Tab.
I prefer HDWall; it gives you more flexibility and control over your UI, and it also includes a program you can run on your phone to select from all the Background Image cabs that are stored in a given directory, so with a little effort on the front-end you can still easily switch between a number of background images.
I already use HDWall. I installed a hdwall-patch on my phone and the HDWall-App to change my wallpapers.
But the background is only for my sense - the startmenu or lockscreen still has another wallpaper.
With bg4all this windows will have the same wallpaper, too? But not in hires (800x480)?
I think i will stay at HDWall.

I don't think bg4all will change your Windows wallpaper either. Use the built-in "Pictures and Videos" app to set your Windows wallpaper. You can also set it from the Today settings screen, but you don't have a GUI for browsing the images - so I prefer to use Pictures and Videos.
Please, where can i find BG4all?
Thanks,

Rgds,
I was just wondering if the locks in Co0kies HT were customisable like the analogue clocks. The windows lock in particular could look very nice if the icon could be skinned.
Any idea?
The CHT Lockscreenfiles are manila files:
7A4563E2_manila Windows Slider
24B65A89_manila Background Manila Slider
26082591_manila Windows Slider pressed
50F29E37_manila HD mini Slider
61515C17_manila Manila Slider
They can be changed like the analog clock files.
That's great... Now to find someone who can design custom locks, I'm clueless with that stuff .
Ask Dinik. He already made a lockscreen for Windows and in HD mini style.
Dinik is already too busy with too many projects, he gets tons of requests everyday so I doubt he would have time for this.

Actually, any design that you like can be used as the lockscreen slider. I myself have made a bat slider for the Cookie lockscreen. See screenshot below.
Image Hosting
I would like to ask the following :
Tried and replaced the default manila file for slider icon (26082591_manila and 61515c17_manila) with two of dinik slider icons , but I came up with a messed up slider (look at screen shot) ... I assume that the dimentions of dinik icons are different ... any way to fix that ?
Thanks for your answers in advanced !!!
P.S. kangmas ... please link the sun weather icon ... THANKS !
Take the old image in the manila file as a template for the new image. And check the image file in CFC Gui. In "replace" it's the last file as standard. You have to change this. Seems like you took the false image (windows slider and manila slider are different).

Open the old image in your photo editing program (I'm using PaintShop Pro). Then add a new layer for working. In this you have to insert the new images (for example by copy and paste). Then you can adjust the new image over the old. At last delete the layer with the old image and save the file. With CFC Gui you can import the new image in the corresponding manila file. I'll attach the necessary old image files.

Hi mate ... never been good at editing pictures ... I never worked with Paintshop pro or any kin d of software for editing ... so I downloaded it and tried everything in my powers but I really cant get it done. So can you please teach me on how to add layers and replace an image with another ....
If you don`t have time to do this , can you please make me two files for CHT lockscreen ? Thank you in advanced !
Here are the files I need to change :
If you can add the slider background it would be amazing, because when I change the option to Windows default lockscreen in CHT I can`t add the background in any way ... and if I select the Manila style lock I don`t like the slider there.
Thank you very much !

Yeah I think a lot of people are using Anastasia and these locks would fit perfectly. If anyone could skin them to cookies HT that would be great (if dinik doesnt mind of course)

I'll ask Dinik (made it already a little bit modded for myself).
Dinik said, he will make a lockscreen in his CHT theme. We have only to wait some days.
I hope we can get different elements from his theme, I really only want his CHT lock and clock.
Can someone make a skin using the lock from the dusk theme? Also could it be done in different colours?
Manila Slider and background
Can someone please make a cab for me? I can't handle the editing of the manila files...
One only with the background and one with all files (I don't know how the Manila Slider pressed file is named...)
I've attached the images for you:

Would be nice if someone could help me =).
If its possible with 50%/80%and 100% transparency.
Thanks and best regards

I'm looking for the same thing. I also need to make that bar with the date and alarm on it transparent.
This is for the new version 1.8 of CHT. I had cabs that worked for the last version but not on this version.
Me three!

This is where I'm at so far. I need cabs to make the Calendar and the slider tab transparent. I don't want the whole slider tab transparent, just the black background. I'll keep looking.

The new cht 1.8 lets you change the background for all. e.g. calendar, music and weather etc.
Just click on your right soft key and click new wallpaper and you'll see a list of places to add new wallpapers and backgrounds.
Hope this helps

No it doesn't, but thanx for your reply. I want certain elements on homescreen (the media player widget and calender list) transparant, not the tabs...
I already found some cabs to make them 50% opaque, I want them 100% however!

Santod040 has already updated his transparency cabs for the new version.
help guys...how do you hide sense like in the pic posted....i believe its from reignzone screenshot...cant find the cab that would do this....
I guess you can find the PNG image using CFC GUI, and just remove the content, make it completely transparent.
hey munto...so the image doesnt mean that manila sense is hidden and if you hit the slider icon, it would appear? does this mean sense is completely disabled?

That is what it looks like to me,
I know in Cookies hometab 1.8 and earlier it is under misc settings "Retract Slider"
GT!!! thanks watcherHD....such a knucklehead here...so simple and i failed to realize thats was in CHT...hahha.....thanks a bundle buddy...satisfied...for now...how do you change the way the slider looks now?????hahha
just install the newest CHT 1.8.X and it has a slider incorporated into the sense. this one doesnt have any bugs. ie all the cabs i tried glitched out on landscape to portrait mode showing both slider and slider bar...
or these cab files for just the retractable slider skins.
I know i have 2 different retractable skins. The first one I know is correct... the second cab I'm pretty sure it is as well. I could be wrong though.
thanks people....got them in and its all good now...
