hello there, heres really hoping one of you smart guys fancy helping me and probably quiet a few other xda members out....
the task in hand is getting "antworks auto wallpaper changer" to work alongside CHT 1.8. heres what cookie had to say about it.......
I'm using a completely custom wallpaper setup, so any wallpaper changer that previously targeted Sense will not be compatible any more. They would have to be adapted. It's not really a big change: they would just have to input a different reg entry to set the wallpaper path. All the CHT wallpaper reg entries are in HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila and the they are Co0kie.Wall.****, where **** is the wallpaper type.
heres the link...

and heres the post from "amnepoh" where the source code is posted for the wallpaper changer app.

hello all, first new topic so go easy on me. anyway, i read through a lot of ppl not being able to figure out the transparency slider, but that is not my issue. my issue is i cannot change the today background image period. i can select it, but the today screen never changes. i know it worked the day i bought it, but it does not work now. the only things i have done to it so far was to unlock it and change from the sprint clock to the flip clock. would either of those mess up my ability to change the background image?
It depends if you're doing the today background or the touch flow 3D background. If you have TF3D running it covers the traditional background that is changed in Start->Settings->Today. Instead scroll to the settings tab in TF3D and look for the wallpaper setting there.
I think there is a CAB floating around here that will push the TF3D wallpaper to all tabs.
wow, thank you. i feel like an idiot now that i could not figure that out. i will have to find that cab you speak of b/c this pic looks amazing when used with the sprint theme.
Oh sweet theres a cab that changes all the background? Where can I find that? PS my device is stock non flashed ROM since its corporate.
i am still looking. i found one for the diamond that ppl are trying but it seems to only work on certain roms. i will keep searching as i only like to apply mods that are proven to work.
Go to this thread - there is a link to the CAB file on it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=451276&highlight=background
The link is in post #3 if I'm not mistaken.
slyng1 found the cab that I used. I have NATF's 1.1 ROM (basically the ATT ROM minus the bloatware) and the Black Touch Pro theme installed through Diamond TF3D Config and the cab works great.
I'm not a good developer. I wish I could contribute in that respect. But I made a few wallpapers so I thought I could share this with you guys.
BTW, can anyone point me to a good lockscreen/wallpaper rotation app (my idea is to get a bunch of lockscreens and rotate them every time i turn on the phone)
edit: looks like the Hardy png I submitted got converted to .jpg, which looks horrible. Here's the better version of it on ImageShack:
You will need to add a http before the thing I'm about to post because new users aren't allowed to post links.

Hi again. Here's the rest of them. Had to wait 5 minutes and post twice to get around the max 8 attachments They're all formatted so that they don't get blocked by the default SenseUI lock info bar. If you guys have a clear lockscreen for 2.1 ROMs (mainly DamageControl... does it matter them ROM, Android version, or base?)
If anyone is wondering, I just did this real quick in Photoshop - first find an image with vertical appeal (rotation is an option to achieve this), scale the height down to 455 pixels (image size), then crop the width (canvas size) to 320 pixels. Easy peasy.
Here is one I created. Enjoy

Edit: I can change the background color if someone wants.

you can use lockbot, just load your images onto lockbot and then you can have your lockscreen wallpapers plus either iphone, eclair, flan, type slider. and then you will see a new one everytime you unlock your phone. its doesnt always work for me lol. but it does most of the time.
awesome. thanks, both of you.
I have just been using photos I put on my phone for background and lockscreens.....
Is there any easy way to recover a lockbot wallpaper from a nandroid backup I made before wiping and reflashing to DC? I obviously don't need Lockbot anymore now that I have the Eclair lockscreen, but I really miss the cool lockscreen glowing-droid image I used to have.
I guess I could reinstall Lockbot & redownload the wallpaper since it's still in my market list as a purchased app, but where would the wallpaper image itself be stored? Also, if anyone knows, are Android apps all totally self-contained universes, or could Lockbot screw up my now nicely-running phone in ways that would persist after uninstalling it (kind of like how you can smoke a brand new copy of Vista badly enough to need reinstallation by trying to install a 10 year old copy-protected game)?
The wallpaper should be on your SD card under .lockbot. That is where all themes are stored.
This is gonna turn into another porn thread shortly.
I absolutely love the calvin and hobbes one from the first post. absolutely beautiful
Thanks op. Nice pictures. I like A most.
OK, so I switched to Lockbot and now I don't need to raise the pictures so high anymore. I remade the ones that are now too high and attached them. I also made a Flan-style theme in Lockbot called "MiniFlan" that's designed to show off wallpapers more than tell the time (the clock and date are really small). Attached is a preview of what it looks like. You can download it here:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YJ8IFWLE
Note: This theme contains a crapload of lockscreen pictures too. If you want to get just the lockscreens but not the theme, download the theme and look in the "bg" folder. You'll find almost all of the lockscreens I use right now. There are 69 of them and I love them all.
Err you know what, Lockbot is really not playing nice with my phone. I think I'll uninstall it soon.
Here are a few I collected around the web. Some are common ones but a few are unusual. I have quite a few more.
Let me know if you want anymore out of my collection.

Wow, see what you mean, realy nice theme! Like the style of animation.
Be interesting to see if any one picks this up
it would be really cool. i would be willing to compile all of the icon packs, sliders, and wallpapers if somebody was willing to help me put it together as a full fledged theme
ive seen the fallout theme created by horrorview and star, and it came to be an amazing theme in a short amount of time. i feel like the hd2 doesn't have a whole lot of theme customization for just the stock rom, and a few quality themes seem to be in order :]
Yeah when I had my G1 someone had made a BUUF theme and it was always my favorite, I love that animation style too. Keeping an eye on this one
if somebody could kindly lead me in the direction i would need to go to get the programs and tutorials on creating themes for leo. id be more than happy to make it myself but i dont know where to start or what to look for. i have all the icons and what not together, i just need to know how to edit manila in order to create a proper theme
This one is for tf3d 2.o but it may help you get started.

i have seen that one before, but all he really did was change the slider and the internet tab. the clock was from a custom rom i believe, however im not a huge fan of the clock anyways.
i do have a slider already on my phone with actual buuf icons, and i have all of my icons replaced with high res buuf .png's. but now im to the point where i want to modify sense in order to get a more complete feel to the theme. i have some buuf wallpapers too.
really all i need to do is some color modifications on manila, get a more cartoony flip/analog clock(s), perferably the buuf clock used on android.
there really isn't a whole lot to do honestly.
ill take a screenshot of what i have right now when i get home from work
edit: actually i think the desire flipclock might fit pretty well. ill just have to see

For your interest; there is allready a Buuf theme for Leo (HTC Sense) available. If you want to see it, just click the link in my signature.
There even is a new MaxSense Buuf theme in progress too.
Grtz,

(Sorry for my english Hungarian is my first language.) I have the iphone dialer,keyboard,etc... I don't know what size png or other pic you need. I post a few png and let me know what I can help with. I'm new to the thc hd2 so I need to get used to it after the iphone... I think using ssh with iphone was easier then win mobile. If you send me files you need to buuf I can change them for you... I have Adobe CS5 Master collection to do the work...
I love how cookie ht 1.8.5 allows us to simply place a wallpaper on the home tab in high quality, and the ability to put one wallpaper for all other sense tabs, and the mini lock screen. I'd like to push this ability one more step!!!
I would like someone to give me the ability to make a custom wallpaper just for the calendar tab.. or just behind the music tab
one for the music tab.... i have set the landscape, but it's the same as other landscape screens. i'd totally love custom for each screen
I noticed DrSrF BUUFfet custom look has made a weather tab with other wallpapers in the other tabs (Rawrscary/Degake) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683771 using a robot wallpaper. I so want this ability on my hd2!!! Some one please help me with this task?!!
I can't be the only person wanting to rectify this feature for the HD2. I use CHT 1.8.5 simply for the fact of three custom wallpapers, but i totally could see even customizing a few other tabs. one wallpaper across 11 tabs look terrible in my opinion.
with the research i've done in the past few days, I have found a link with xperia x1 user that has configured 13 wallpapers in sense 2.5! I tried to install, but there was a lack in directions to how i may customize these features on tabs.
here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508799&page=12
Please speak up, just support the idea, and maybe a few devs will look into making this possible!!!
Good idea! support it!

Well, In that thread it's just a CAB that they have for that theme. Not really sure exactly if there is some other way to get it changed. If there is, I do not know. Maybe drop a line in the Cookie thread and see if he can build something into the next version of his CHT mod... that would be awesome
As far as HOW - THEY - did it... no clue. I want to know myself. If you find out, PM me please
hey guys, i have the skinning bug and want to change the items in the red boxes, can some one tell me what files i need to be looking at to do so......
