I am attempting to use HDWall to skin my background for starviews fallout theme, but after I install the cab, it only skins the top and bottom bar. I have tried installing and uninstalling countless times, as one thread suggested, and I have installed and uninstalled the HQ wallpaper patch, and both times, no luck. Please help.
I have searched now for 3 days, and posted in two forums asking, and I see I'm not the only one having this issue.

It looks like that you not use Cookies Home Tab.
When not using Cookies Home tab you need to install the High quality wallpaper patch. But this Patch must fit to your manila version.
Which manila version is yours you can see as follow:
slide to Seetings--->about phone--->Software information.
Cookies Home Tab can be found here:

The patch can be found here:

The best way is to use Cookies Home Tab 1.8.5 because you dont need the wallpaper patch!
I have cookies home tab, so it isn't that.my manilla is 2.5.2012 I can put a accredit up if that helps?
Figured out the issue, so for everyone else having this problem, cookies newest home tab has hd wall and the patches already included. if you download those two AFTER you already have cookies, it will mess it up.so, what I did was uninstall the patch and hdwall and then cookies.reinstall cookies then download your hdwall cab.
This is what i have wrote in my post.

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

Hi...
Just a quick question...
are u using a theme or do you have TouchPRO Vodafone TF3D...
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.

ok... do you know where I can download that ROM?
(or the TF3D manila files)
It's not in the about list... it's on the button (that changes colour when u press it)
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 ...

I think that's the old Vodafone TF3D from Diamond...
I found a Vodafone Raphael 1.90.161.5 ROM here...
http://rapidshare.com/files/147978863/vodafone.rar.html
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

Hey,
Is there a program to change the wallpapers in the tabs in manila 2.6??
The HDWallpaper program doesn't work with 2.6, only with 2.1
And the standard wallpapers are soooo UGLY
Nobody..
I searched google and this topic was the first result
LOL
Lol, I too got here via google.
I've tried several, but every one messes up the home tab. I know one from Rotastrain used to work, but on 2.5.19201130 it does not work...
Hope someone has a bgfor all tabs that works
Edit: After reading a few threads I came up with a working cab (I just installed and it works):

What do you mean? Can you explain please, because wallpaper IS fullscreen.

attached you see a screenshot. The taskbar and bottombar are not part of the wallpaper. And the way i see it, by default 6.5.x doesn't provide any solutions...

Right - I see what you're asking now.
The wallpaper is actually "overlayed" with the taskbar and menu, so it is fullscreen, but behind those objects.
Search for HDWall (it's not in the Leo section - I believe it's in the Blackstone section, but could be wrong, so do a search of all forums).
That makes hi-quality wallpapers (better than the resized-by-htc wallpapers that you normally get) and it does it for all tabs. You also have the option to skin the taskbar and menu, and even change the slider if you want.
That will do what you ask anyway. Hope it helps

i'm using miri 1.4 rom right now, that one is provided with manila 1922. Hdwall still doesn't support that version. The wallpaper will come out mangled and all weird....
edit: also i don't see the option in hdwall to choose wm6.5.x only wm6.5, does that have any impact?

Try the HQWallpaper cab from the 1st post - that may help, but I'm not promising anything.

That shouldn't make any difference. It's not making any changes to the OS, just the GUI.

as i told before i'm on miri 1.4, that one comes with manila 1922.....
and the hq wallpaper cab together with hdwall does NOT work....
i already know manila 1920 and 1921 works with the cab and hdwall, i used that before also, but with the newest manila it simply does not work
i noticed that when i select titanium as homescreen, the bottom bar is semi transparent, how can i also get that when using sense??? That would fix half of the problems i'm facing...
edit, not only bottom bar, but also top taskbar is semi transparent then...... why does this only work with titanium and not htc sense?
no clever ideas/solutions for me?

I told you already, MaxTTM
Try this Transparent softkey .tsk file, along with MaxTTM.
Then you can have clear bars and no softkey bubble buttons.
Although it does not line up perfectly. It looks best with textured or patterned wallpapers. In my opinion. It really depends on what B4all you are using as well.
I installed the cab to make taskbar and the very bottom bar transparent, but now it wont let me change my wallpaper, it is just black?!? when i try to remove the patch from the applications settings, it says it is not fully removed... help guys!?!
hi mate
First: Did you install the HQ wallpaper patch for the right manila version?
2nd: Install and than uninstall patch again.
3rd: After install HD Wallpaper cab do a softreset.
Do you have Cookies Home Tab and Cookies Home Tab Editor?
It is the best to use that to.
EDIT: Wich manila version is yours?
I have the exact same problem and no i dont use cookies...
Gotta be a way to make them without cookies home tab?
Hi
Sure that you installed the right HQ Wallpaper Patch?
there are differents between the manila versions 1921, 1922, 1923, 2011 and 2012.
And what ROMS you are using? WM6.5 or WM6.5.x?

I've got WM 6.5 with manila 1921.
Im pretty sure I installed the right version. (1920 version was cleared for 1921)
okay it should be the right version. I never used it without cookies hometab.
Did you try it with cookies?
It runs always perfect for me at wm6.5 and 6.5.x too.

Nope, havent tried it with cookies yet.
But perhaps i should?
Dont know if i like cookies to be honest. I like my phone just the way it is now :S
i think you should give cookies a try. so we can see does it works only with cookies or not. After that we can look how we get it works without cookies.
A little experiment also.
Sry for my bad englisch...German!

I do have the same problem, I tried several Roms on my HD Touch pro 2 and 9 times out of 10 (even when using the right combi of HQ Wallpaper Patch and Manila I only see the wallpaper on the top and bottom bar. Last time I flashed a Rom that did not have Cookies and that seem to work 99% only when turning the phone landscape you would see the landscape background but on the top you would see a small bar from the portrait picture. The problem is that I do like Cookies home Tab because I want to change the clock to a compact one to see the background but somehow, it seems that the combi cookies and HDWALL doesn't work. I do have to say that on my old Blackstone I never had any problems so could it be the Touch Pro 2.

Do you use Cookies Home Tab 1.8.5?
When not u have to look that the High Qallity Wallpaper patch is the rigth for your manila version.
When using Cookies Home Tab 1.8.5 you dont need the High Qallity wallpaper patch.
EXAMPLE: Your manila verison is 2.5.2015xxxx
you have to look for the patch for these version!
Your manila version you can see as follow:
Go to: Settings---->About Phone--->Software information---->Manila Version!

please more information
just a suggestion. better post your concern at the main thread of cht.
I have no idea.
Go ask in the original CHT thread?
hey, i tell ya what,
post the issues yer havin in Co0kie's thread,
instead of startin new threads mate,
much easier for all!
This is what worked for me when I had similar problems... ...
1 Disable sense/enable windows default.....
settings>today>untick sense/tick windows default
2 soft reset
3 re-install CHT 1.8 (I just reinstalled over the top of the previous install)
I know thats not recomended but hey........
4 soft reset
5 Re-enable sense (step one in reverse)
Soft reset just for good measure....
worked for me anyway...........
hope that helps
I've had the same problem tried instal and uninstal cht but only hard reset worked for me now got cht 1.8 but works quite slow for me on my Hd2
Post this in the main CHT thread please. We are more likely to read problems there, and get onto testing solutions.
