General question's - Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps

I have some questions about Htc diamond 2...
How can i change the themes of my device?
Where can i find it?
Its possible to disable the internet acess?(sometimes, by mistake i turn it on and spend me money...)
If im posting in the wrong place, please tell me where can i post.
Thanks

Themes:
On WM6.1. Settings. Personal tab. Today. Select your theme, then press OK.
Disable internet:
On WM6.1, this is how I did it. Settings. Connections tab. Connections. There should be some options like My Work. You can either delete these, or just change the settings to something totally different.

Hi there...Thanks for the help.
In the internet problem i changed the settings and it seemĀ“s to work nice now...thanks...
But in the themes i change the themes where you told me but, i didin't noticed any change...i mean, it seems that the only thing that changed was the color of the text...

When changing the themes, did you want to change the Manilla theme? As in, the whole slider/weather/clock?
If so, that is slightly different. You need to install CAB files that change each bit you want. So if you want a slider that has a transperant background, then install the CAB that does that. If you want different icons on each tab in the slider, then that is harder again. You need to unpack the CAB for a slider, insert your own icons, then re-pack the CAB, then install.
If you are just wanting to change the background in the home tab of Manilla (clock, weather [if WM6.5], calender), then slide across to settings, click Wallpaper, click on No, then choose your picture.

...i want to change first screen, the slider,weather, clock...but i dont know what to install...and what is manila??Is some kind of theme??
I look for manila in the search tryng to see something but i cant find a explanation about it...it looks that everyone knows what is manila and i'm the only one that dont...
Thanks

Manila is like a program running on top of the windows. go to Settings > Personal tab > Today, under "item" tab you will see "HTC sense" checked. HTC sense is the manila.
if you don't wanna use manila, just uncheck it (HTC sense) and you will have a empty today screen. Or choose "windows default" if you wanna use "titanium" that came with winMo.
if you wanna customized the way manila display, Co0kie's Home Tab is a good option. else if you wanna totally change the appearance, go for theme like Maxsense or anything else you can find.
if you wanna change the taskbar icon, find some cab over this forum will do the work.

You should be able to set all of them through the settings tab, personalizations.
If not the start menu picture is found in windows folder stwater.jpg and the today screen is tdwater.jpg.

I don't know what you mean, maybe my English is to crap
So in my settings menu personlizations I can change my background, I've did that before and it just works fine. I can't remember that there was an option to get them all at my backgrounds.
How can I manage it that I can have my background only at my screen lock. If the rest is black I'm fine by that At the moment I'm using LockDevice, and I don't want to go back to S2U2 where I can manage it how I like it.

LockDevice is a simple utility and only used the default today background, unlike S2U2 that can be customized.
I suggest a program called AutoWallpaper Changer. You can set it to change Today, TF3D and S2U2 at various intervals. If you use TF3D, you can uncheck it to be changed and change the today screen which would then be picked up by LockDevice.
Sorry I do not have a better solution.
No problem, thnx anyway

Look at post #38 on page 4 in this thread.
You have to edit the "LS_Global_480x800.cpr" file to be able to have
diffenrent backrounds in Lockscreen and WM 6.5 StartMenu.
It works on Topaz, I tried it myself.

Beyond Frustrated!!! Transparency Cabs!!!

I was told that if I copied over the Manila File 4f914e0d with one that was edited to make the text on my home screen, "CALENDAR" go away but it does not. Does anyone have a cab file for this. When I use cookie's tab to "show when relevant" the date and alarm pops up with a grayish background. Also my clock has clear borders around it!!! I'm trying to get rid of this crap so I can have and enjoy the background I like. I've been up since 9AM EST reading through several posts and installing and uninstalling cabs and manila files to no avail. I NEED HELP!!!!

You should check the stickies... and install transparency cabs for whatever item you want to have transparent.

Yea those two threads do nothing for me. There isn't a cab that removes the "text" 'Calendar' from the homescreen. There is one that removes it from the lockscreen. And there isn't a Cab that removes the "clear frames" from under my digital clock. Also I've noticed where people can edit the word "start" on the top curtain...how can I do this?

Clear frames from under the clock??? Are you talking about the background for the calendar/alarm on the home screen? That would be the first cab.
and the no start text cab is the 2nd one.
If this isnt what you are looking for, please give us a screen shot pointing to what you need.
OK do you
see how this image has frames around the digital clock
Also you see the text "calendar" right below the date and alarm.
I want to remove calendar and I want to remove those "clear" frames around the digital clock. Also its not about removing the text "start" in the top curtain...I want to edit it. See the other picture...
EDIT: I removed the text/word "Calendar" from my homescreen by selecting menu/Edit Home Layout: Then I held pressed "Calendar" and it prompted me if I wanted to remove it and there it went.. Now the only thing ...those darn eyeglass frames around my digital clock and editing the top curtain.
That should remove the clock background fully. It is in one of or both posts I posted in post 3.

Didn't work. Most of the Touch X's i've used do not work. I'm running the new TmoUS ROM on my HD2. Also I do not want to remove that "start" in the top curtain as so much as to edit it. Also do you know of a way besides HDWALL and B4ALL to get the homescreen wallpaper to show on the top and bottom curtains as well...?
Are those "frames" not part of the clock itself and not a background. I think you need to look for another completely transparent clock. I'm not sure which one to suggest, but that's where I'd be looking rather than cabs for transparent backgrounds
Interesting

Try these, unzip and copy files to \Windows (backup the originals first ) and then overwrite the originals. You may need to use Total Commander or Resco File Explorer to do so.
For editing the name on the top I use CHT Editor, but you can also try MaxTTM (look in the Blackstone aka Touch HD section) if you don't use the Co0kie Home tabs mod.
EDIT: I see you also use the CHT Editor - so to change the operator name is very easy, go to - Menu\CHT Editor\Miscellaneous settings> and scroll down to Custom Operator text and edit to whatever you wish
I agree with Clyde. That cab should remove the BG of the clock all together.
I have a stock rom T-MoUS as well, and 90% of the Touch X cabs work for me. so they should work for you no probs. Maybe you have something installed that
does not get along with the cabs.
As for the start text thing.. I dont know if you can edit it. I know it can be removed. Not seen it edited to say something ells. CHT will allow you to change the operator text, just below the start text.
After looking at the second pic again. I *THINK* that is a personal rom that Antonio uses. If that is the case, he has that cooked into the rom like that.
You can also try this to edit the Operator name - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359563&highlight=personalizer

Yea I like the basic clock...i'm just trying to find one without those clear borders. And I already edited the Carrier name right below the top curtain...I just didn't know that was built inside a ROM within the Top Curtain...I thought that was a cab...
Now just to be clear

That zip file contains files that will make my home tab top and bottom bars/curtains transparent so my wallpaper will show the entire length of my display?

No. it will only take away the shaded areas behind the Operator name and behind the sliders. To skin the taskbar and softkey bar you need to use something like HD Wall, or alternatively the volDeus tweak (link in my signature) but HD Wall is a little easier to use. You can also skin the bars using MaxTTM referred to earlier.
I do not

changing all backgrounds and taskbards ???

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

Hello Would anyone could explain me how to change the white slider in S2U2 and how it's done by one of another color or shape tanks
give this a go
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3120565&postcount=1
extract the theme to wherever, then go into s2u2 settings, choose theme, browse to the theme and it loads and applies it. I use it, it's the first thing I do as soon as I update my rom.

[Q] is ther app can set custom slider tab icons

is there application i can use to set custome icon (i choose) in slider tab? not a theme or fixed icon, i am looking for something like csmi but for tab slider
up.. nothing guys?
the answer is no, not really.
the only thing that comes close to what you want is hdwall:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503511&highlight=hdwall
haven't used it myself for that purpose, but it says it can work. but really the best way is to edit the manila files yourself.
