very easy.
when u want to change manila wallpaper (setting> personalize) , u have 2 option:
weather wallpaper
animated wallpaper
choose animated wallpaper and then select favorite wallpaper. now u have no weather animation in home screen.
i thought so, too, but there is still a little animation, right between my location and the alarm...
I noticed that too, I dont know if you would be able to remove that without installing some modded files - thats if there is a way to completely remove the weather animations at all.
If you would like a static, non animated wallpaper on your homescreen:
on the homescreen press menu (right softkey)
then press Home Wallpaper and finally press Animated Wallpaper. This will start HTC albums with three animated wallpapers in the directory. At that point, instead of selecting one of those three wallpapers press 'Albums' (right softkey), go to My Device or Storage Card and browse for the desired wallpaper.
The wallpapers used for the lockscreen are in My Device -> My Wallpapers. Those are static, no animations at all. You will still get the animation on the weather tab tho...
Hope this helps.
The only method to do this currently is to rename the WeatherService.dll entry in the registry to stop it from loading on startup. However, it comes with a few side effects.

the other option is to not update the weather. Click on the clock and add you city. Once this is done click on it and then just never update the weather and you will have no weather animation.
It's not an ideal solution but it works. Other than that use the animated wall paper like everyone else says

This won't stop the weather animation next to the clock and alarm.
it will if you dont update the weather as it doesnt know what to put there. you end up with this
Hi,
Nice Work
Weather thingy was right in the way in the middle of the screen!
Cheers,

I wanted one of the weather wallpapers without the actual weather animation so i went into the folder with the weather wallpapers in and copied it into the folder with the animated wallpapers. This was then shown with the animated wallpapers allowing me to use a weather wallpaper without the animation. Animated wallpapers are located in Device/Windows/Animated Wallpaper. I can't actually find the weather wallpapers folder now. I know it's there somewhere but i can remember exactly where.
If you find the folder can you let me know cos it's annoying me that i can't find it.
Hi,
Weather is back in the middle on the screen and I can't shift it
Any ideas, please?
Cheers,

On my TD2 I modded the 1c684cd8_manila (manila name: home.mode9).
Search for
Code:
<Property Name=Instance Name Value="Home_WeatherCom">
and add
Code:
<Property Name=Visible Value="False">
It removes the weatherfunction up to the displayed location name
And you can still use autoupdate and the weathertab
Edit: The attached CAB only works for Topaz Devices with WM 6.5 and Sense 2.1
Cab doesnt work for me, hd2 1.48 factory rom - T mobile.
remove weather animation
Hello guys. I am not sure if this will work on htc Leo, but I am using Leo ROM on my device and this work with no problem. Use Reg Editor :HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila] "Home.WallpaperMode"=dword:00000002

As David Balfour said, if you don't update weather it won't be there.
Bare in mind, you will have to wait for the 5 day forcast to run out!!!

Or delete: \Application Data\HTC\databases\forecast_cache.db
If necessary, it will be recreated automatically.

then you have to modify the manilafile yourself with m9editor.
i dont know if its the same filename as on my TD2 but the code should work anyway. the manila name is home.mode9. good luck
Hello,
first of all I love the Desire Rom by Paul. I only want to modify the "taskbar" graphics at the bottom of the display. Do you know in which .apk I will find them?
Do you already knwo where i can find the wallpapers in the rom, f.eg. the blue travel wallpaper?
Thanks and regards
donner
framework-res.apk for the notification bar, and alot of other stuff is in there aswell. Try making a morph to start with, it's alot easier. You can even download someone elses, open all the files and if you have a little bit of computer knowlege teach yourself from there.
wallpaper
and where are the wallpapers? they are not in the framework-res.apk
If you're looking for the graphics on the bottom on sense these are located in a seperate .apk on all the desire roms i've seen that is next to the framework-res.apk normally called something like com.htc.desire or something similar
Isn't it rosie.apk?
Most of HTC's stuff is in rosie.apk
Definitely go for a metamorph theme.
Metamorph allows you to specify only a few PNGs, XMLs etc that will be updated within the targeted apk.
On NON-Desire roms, wallpapers are in the launcher.
So yeah, maybe Rosie.apk
Im looking to make animated wallpaper for the HD2 but trying to figure out were do I start. I know there has been a few people here making them but the stuff I've seen isn't what im looking to do.
I'm looking for something in the Nexus One range, but without it being LIVE, just animated. While browsing the HD2 animated walls, there is only 3 and they are .png. Animated .pngs. When I load a .png as a animated wallpaper, it doesnt animate, just stays on the first frame. So my question is, what else is the HD2 doing to make the walls animate?
I started having a look at this too..
The pngs aren't animated. They act as the background for the animation wallpaper... the actual animations are run by a scripted manila file (don't ask me which one, I did find a thread with the details of this script but you'll have to search for it) and a bunch of manila files for the pngs.
The scripted file tells the manila pngs how to "animate" i.e which directions they go, sizes, speed etc. You can edit the script to change the "animations" and also change the manila pngs for pngs of your choice.
You'll need to get the scripted file and the relevant manila files from your windows folder on your device. If you do a search for animated wallpapers on the forum there's a few threads telling you which files are needed and how to edit them. CFC editor/M9 Editor etc
hope that helps and best of luck
edit: have a look at this thread... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6335350#post6335350 or do a search for animated wallpapers in the forum
Im new here and i was wondering if anyone can show me how to get more animated wallpapers for my HTC HD2. Thx
I wish I knew. I have been looking too, and the only ones I have found seem to destroy the default ones.
Is it possible to get HTC sense weather animations in png or gif format? I really need it. Any help?
i want to know the same +1
I fyou have the htc weather and clock apk you can extract it with winrar. In the extracted dir you can find all the png's that are used for the weather.
For instance :
http://code.google.com/p/mdroid/downloads/detail?name=HTC%20sense%20Weather.apk
thanks. good for me : )
So does HTC sense weather animations apk exist?
Searching for it. Hopefully back soon with the file.
