I see in some ROMS the default avatar u see when u call someone without a pic has been changed. Anyone know how to change that picure ... is it a simple drop of a PNG image somewhere on the phone?
If not maybe we can start a thread with flashable alternatives.....??
Im sick of this green android guy ... something more professional would be nice

I know currently that animated pics dont work on the android os, or does it? They have to to an extent for the face that the second boot pic is animated with the lil android dude or if u got 1.5 the android text. my old razr v2 didnt allow this either until someone was able to make a theme with a animated pic embedded as the bg. has anyone been looking into this.
Idk but this would be really nice to have though...
Animated Radar images on i.wund.com (weatherunderground.com's iPhone site) don't seem to work either.
This is a big deal for me since I am a frustrated wanna be meteorologist.

There are animated buttons in the calculator application. I'd would check that code to see what's making that work and see if there is anyway to make it work anywhere else... if there is a will, there will be a way.

Dont quote me, but I think that those are just 2 .png files interlaced with each other. Any themer would know better though.
from what i can tell most of the themers that have changed it only changed the color of the background behind the android text. it is a simple .png that has a "shiny" section and it loops the entire image to the right. i am not sure what causes it to move, but i thought i saw someone used fireworks to create a new image. i am sure that if you get the source code from google you can have a look to see what is actually happening
I made the fire for the prodigal port and i changed the whole image for the boot i did for the Dude's Full 1.1a default i also made it faster. There are i cons in parts of the theme that can be made bigger and not affect the theme.
i think this is a deja vu post again. there must be an older one.
the basic answer is that the current widget can only display static images unless you extend it yourself.
The theme slash app is available for download with some cool features i added like a new solid battery icon,improve HTc theme,faster scrolling now,support landscape mode now,haves zune on it now but not finish with it,and new weather design look for the theme and better darker text or like to call it words and for the last thing this improves the remove program app in setting now oh ya and its faster tell me if you find any bugs in it so I can fix it here is the file name u should be downloading to your windowsmobile standard device HTC Edition windowsmobile standard cab.zip you should find it in this thread
The next update will have a better interface, have 3d weather forcast,fix the homescreen problem with not supporting the theme somethimes but not that bad but needs more work and if you do have problem with it just go to your themes and just assign it to your device as your theme again and it should work ,finish the Zune App,and make it possible to change the clock to add better one"s,make the landscape mode better,and maybe able to change the start menu icons into htc icons and that is all.

hi there, i have a samsung shg-i637 i like your theme. I would like to prove your new weather, can you post the cab please
u want to try it out
Htc standard edition theme for windowsmobilestandard
here is the theme but u would need the other cab files to look like mines in the picture and i adding the landscape mode so you can use it on your phone to and tell me if it works on your phone. wait nevermind you dont need those other files already install into this one enjoy
If you have any problems installing this you may need total commander to get the theme and the add on"s or u can open it threw winzip on your computer in just transfer one by one to your computer.It is almost 3 ways you can do it or just download straight from your phone this is third way
4/1/10 updated this post just decided to just give you all the cab files in the file to just make them seperate due to problems trying to put them and the same file format plus if i do put it in one file you may not like some of the stuff thats why i did this enjoy
theres going to be another post with the rest of the files couldnt fit all of them into this one.
thanks works perfect on my sgh-i637, but i have a question: when i try to change the background i go to app/data/home htc2 xml but i need to change the cpr file too?
no you just go to pictures and assign them ask your background
the layout you have selected cannot be loaded. please selecta different layout using the home screen item in settings
just go to setting then go to display then home screen when you get to the last part u should see something about home screen layout you would find HTC2 in there plus if you want to change background for it you should find the background image

deleted the old top pics
the problem i found with the thing keep say error about the background made because of screen size i think but mostly every theme does that on windowsmobile standard devices it just a glitch in the standard rom that they just need to fix or someone who wants to make a better rom for it would help it but is not bad it only happens only one or twice but is going to fix the problems and others.
Does anyone can help me I want to build my own theme related to my job herbalife
help
Now this really depends to what extent you would like to make it.
For many people, a matching background picture is enough... but the possibilities are endless.
Help with making Themes for Maxsense
Can anyone help me or point me in the right place on what I need to make my own theme for Maxsense. I really like the UI and everytime I flash the new updated one I have to reset everything back up. I see posts talking about showing off there themes but no one really talks about how to make on.
Thanks

Have you tried soft-reseting the device after installation?
Also..You'd probably get better answers as well as faster responses by asking questions in the developers original thread instead of starting a new one.
thanks. first time didnt work then did. but using with cht so dunno if that cause and issue? trying the chts theme too, whats the diffrence?
why does the background look blurry when the image file doesnt? and why dont the images you want to set as your today background never have the option to but the others do?
and also whys the background white on the calendar when the numbers and stuff are too. cant see a thing.
ok I guess im probably the best person to try and answer your questions on this one.....
ill start with the difference between the two versions.
the one from the theme thread contains a lot more files and is a more complete theme off the sense interface, however that does mean it can be a little bit of a pain in the ass to get it set up how you like it.
the chts version which im guessing you got from the link in my sig is kind of a "light version" it only really themes the cht stuff.
my advice would probably be to read up on chtscheduler and use that version. if you want other bits from the full theme then I can make you individual cabs for those.
as long as you have cht2.0 and cht scheduler installed everything should work fine.....
instructions for the chts one are in the thread.
the blurry wallpaper could be down to settings in chteditor, try selecting hq wallpaper mode. im not sure what you mean by options to set images as your today background.
your problem with the calendar is because when we created the theme we were using roms that had black text on the calendar tab and didn't really think about those with white text. tomorrow ill make a black and orange wallpaper for you if you want......
and thanks for using the theme
ok ....so i bein trying to modify my apps trying to make the back ground transparent so heres the problem i dont know how to make it transparent i have read gides on how to make apk transparent but non of them talks about how to make the background transparent ..i read this gide that i have to delete the background but than when i put it back the background it white ....so i dont know what to do im really looking forward to this so plz help me if yall know how to do this >>>>> thanks..........i know i put another post of this in the other forum but i need help and nobody replying i know yall bussy im sorry!!!!!!!!!!!
i assume u know how to decompile the apk... 2 ways to do this you can do it in the xml the part that refrences the background image it also has the dpi settings for the background in it color what not u can add the transparency setting for it to..
or you can take your image in photo shop or equivlent and change the layer of the image to transparency and then adjust the hue of the transparency to make it lighter or darker depending on the color save it and put it back in the apk
Wow dang thats easy... man thank u bra im about to try it ....!!
