whats up everyone...cant seem to load dinik slider and keyboard but was able to load his icons and taskbar. strange. i already loaded the sdk cab file. i loaded the keyboard and slider but they dont change...did restart and everything...what am i doing wrong? please help me figure this out...thanks in advance.
I have stock ROM TMOUS and the versions which worked for me are: Keyboard 2.1 (use the new sdkcertsnew2015) and Slider Selection 2.0 A (by Kurt).
Which slider are you talking about? The one in the homescreen? or the slider selection icon when you select the tabs (those two are different but are given the same name by those who are doing the mods). If you are talking about the slider in home screen, i don't have it anymore but what used to work for me were either Dinik Slider 1.3 or 1.6. (Must be installed to device if prompted).
i am trying to install the slider for the home screen (C). and it doesnt change anything after i installed it. will follow your instructions...thanks for helping me out...amazed by the hd2 and its infinite possibilities

Hello,
I'm trying to get my top and bottom taskbars transparent. But I have no success.
I tried the cab from smaberg, changed the manila files in windows folder and also removed the taskbar.png with transparent ones.
All this doesn't work for me.
Who has a solution for Manila 2.5.19211619.0.
Thanks.
For transparent taskbars you have to use "HDWall" - search for it
smabergs cab is only for the cutains behind the operator logo and the bottom slider

But tbh, this is not a solution for transparency... It just replaces the black backgrounds in the top and bottom with slices of the selected wallpaper, meaning that as long as you can see the top bar, even if in a program, it will have the same slice of the wallpaper.
Real transparency comes for example when you press the windows hard button and get to that menu, that's a real transparent bar at the top... Although it might work in the same way, what do I know. I just find it too ugly that when you're in another program the top bar still has the slice of the wallpaper..

I tried HDWall. But the result is not satisfying. The bottom taskbar is now like the wallpaper. But the top is black. If I go to start menu the background is from the theme only the bottom taskbar is from the wall paper.
If I slide the menu I can't see the background. All is black except the bottom taskbar.
At the end this is ugly.

I played a bit around and deactivated Sense. So there´s the standard WM 6.5.5 homescreen - with transparent taskbar & softbar. Why isn´t this possible with Manila?

I also want to ask the same question but still waiting for solution around the web.
I recently installed santod040's BG4all cab and I noticed that the slider is semi transparent on the home tab, but fully opaque on all other tabs. I want to make the slider partially transparent on all tabs, not just the home tab. I searched for ways to do this tabs, but found none. Does anybody have a cab for this? I use the latest Dutch stock ROM with Manila 2.5.20113030.0.
Thanks in advance.
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...
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
Can anyone assist me with the following problem.
I want to change the Slider icons for home/people/mail etc etc.
I used the HDwall program to create the cab but when I install the cab nothing changes on the icons (Wallpaper and top and bottom bars do change)
Ive deleted the *.bmp files and restarted but still the old icons are displayed.
Any ideas ?
(HD2 Evo 6.5.x ROM with 2.10.50 radio on)

I think the HDWall slider funktion doesn´t work for the HD2! I test it few times too with the result that nothing works!

You might be better off using CFC-GUI to edit the manila files for the slider. You can't make cabs with it but you can do all your personal mods using that program very easily. If you want a free cab maker, there is Quick Cab 2.0 (just search on XDA). All very easy to use.
