Hi!
I'm using CHT 2.0 an I'm now looking for the wallpaper of the programs page (pressing windows button) in Artemis-ROM V50. I would like to use the blue gradient wallpaper on all sides of the HTC Sense UI. Unfortunately I think these graphics are not part of the ArtemisGreenBlack theme because they are not in the cab file.
Can someone tell me where I can find the graphics for wallpaper, taskbar and softkeybar as see on the program page in the named theme?
With many thanks.

if it can help .. there should be a CHT option to set the same background in all tabs (otherwise you could use "back ground for all" cab attached), and serarch in these sites a wallpaper of your taste
stock bacgrounds are stored in \my documents\wallpapers (if I rember the WWE folder name..)

Hola, since your using CHT and Artemis, there shouldn´t be any problem...
Besides what jjollyroger already wrote, maybe I don´t understand your question, but if you are refering to the "turqoise" WP, it´s in the ROM, Windows directory and it´s one of the called "stwater" image files (Default_stwater_480_800.gif & Default_stwater_800_480.gif)
Regarding taskbar and softkeybar, this will depend on the theme you´re using.
If you are using Artemis Greeen Black, then the files are the following:
Taskbar: "art_gb_Taskbar.png", "HTCBlack_taskbar.png"
Softkey: "art_gb_SKBackground.png", "art_gb_SKButton.png", "art_gb_SKButtonDisabled.png", "art_gb_SKButtonSelected.png" and also one "xyz_softkeybar.png" depending on the last theme used (probably "classicblue_softkeybar.png").
For both you can also check in the registry to see which files are beeing used:
1. HKCU\software\Microsoft\Today\TaskBar\TaskBarThemeImage
2. HKCU\software\Microsoft\Today\Softkeybar\SoftkeyBarThemeImage

Had a little extra time on my hands and decided to make a couple of clocks for manila 2.5. First of all thanx to the creator of CFC GUI .60.35 - THE Manila/TF3D Image Editor and NRGZ28 for his carbon clock. I went ahead and made two variations of the carbon clock, a black carbon and blue carbon.
Here they are....
11/23/09 - Graffiti Clock
Really nice, but for what manila version are those clocks?
Since you see the shortcuts on the home page I guess it's the 2.5 brand.
That's looking real good!
I see that's winmo 6.5.1 that you are running, but what about the rest of the UI? that's a theme? It seems that the fonts and shortcuts down there are different.
What did you use to that effect?
Thanks!
Thanks! iam using the jw black theme for windows. the task bar i found while searching through the forums. And the shortcuts are from the manila 2.5. I just went ahead and edited the slider, icons, and clock. Still got some work to do before I completely customized my device!
[edit] nevermind! a search on jw black theme gave me a good result but! the wallpaper is real nice, any chance you could give more info on it? Thanks!
Looks real good, especially the 3rd one.
I am using the clock, but would like to get all the rest (at least the wallpaper and font).
Any chance you can be more specific about files names or maybe you could share what you created? That would be really great
THANKs .
not a problem, iam using the kabel system font, found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532633
and ive attached the wallpaper iam using.
as for the slider ill post that one as soon as iam done editing it. iam compiling icons that coincide with windows mobile (i.e. opera for the internet tab, zune for the music player, outlook express for email tab and so forth) it should be done soon, just editing the taskbar and softkey skins to match the slider.
Thank you for all the info
And for your hard work!
Cheers
any chance in making the "AM~PM" on the clock white also?
yeah new clock for my sense 2.5
Thanks a lot have been looking for a new clock for my sense 2.5 long time and yeah yours works.
Nice look these clocks!
here are the manila files for a white am and pm on the clock. just unzip and copy to windows directory.
any tutorial
Hi bruc410,
could you provide me a short tutorial how to make a clock skin for Manila 2.5?
or is there any tutorial in this forum?
Thanks!
You need photoshop, a manila editor (preferably cfc-gui-only-0.60.35), and finally the original manila 2.5 file, found here http://code.google.com/p/manilavga/...ManilaOriginalWVGA-2_5_19211619_0.7z&can=2&q=. All you have to do is unzip the manila files and then open up manila editor and select the core folder from your manila 2.5 file. From there just save the original clock files to your computer as a png then edit them to your liking and replace them with the manila editor. Finally copy the edited manila files to your windows directory. Thats about it. Sorry if my directions are a little thrown together but i pretty much figured this out on my own. The good thing is once you get the hang of it you can customize the entire manila 2.5. Hope this answers your question.

Does anyone have any idea where I could find a theme like the one on the HTC HD mini? I would like it to be simple black and also black manilla would be nice. I found the new colored manilla here on the forum but that one also has changed icons which I don't want. So, black manilla+black theme anyone?
(I've seen more devices with these themes running but I'm reffering to the HD mini in particular because I'm running winmo 6.5.5 on my mega)
I can provide you with the HD mini theme wallpaper....than you are already half way......
note: save as PNG file....and than copy to your phone. Install with M2DC.
I do not have the black Manila......but if you browse through this thread you may find what you want......http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575723

First, it says its WVGA, Touch2 is QVGA and it doesnt look like the original theme from MINI?
I like it but thats WVGA, mega is QVGA, i dont think it'll work.

Here is something i knocked together using frank caarls bg image and editing the hh_tab images
(Note that the weather icons are dudd, im using the mortscript to display an icon there rather than "No Weather Data")
Thanks, I was looking for something like this a while ago. I achieved it by using separate elements, like the hd mini wallpaper set throughout manilla with m2dc, livven simplegloss themes & customizations and a black manilla theme called "[email protected] 2.6 look m2d skin". All of these already available here on xda.
Now, does anyone know how I could get rid of the soft start button? Because mega already has a hardware key for that and it just takes space on the screen
Hi, can someone explain me the difference between bg4all and HDWall?
Can i do the same things with it?

There may be additional differences, but from what I have noted, BG4All gets installed on your phone, whereas HDWall is used on your desktop to create new background image cabs.
BG4all enables setting any images as your wallpaper across all tabs, but they are low-res wallpapers. HDWall requires creating a new cab for each potential background image, but they are high-res.
Both require a variety of patches and fixes to work with other modifications to Sense, like Co0kies Home Tab.
I prefer HDWall; it gives you more flexibility and control over your UI, and it also includes a program you can run on your phone to select from all the Background Image cabs that are stored in a given directory, so with a little effort on the front-end you can still easily switch between a number of background images.
I already use HDWall. I installed a hdwall-patch on my phone and the HDWall-App to change my wallpapers.
But the background is only for my sense - the startmenu or lockscreen still has another wallpaper.
With bg4all this windows will have the same wallpaper, too? But not in hires (800x480)?
I think i will stay at HDWall.

I don't think bg4all will change your Windows wallpaper either. Use the built-in "Pictures and Videos" app to set your Windows wallpaper. You can also set it from the Today settings screen, but you don't have a GUI for browsing the images - so I prefer to use Pictures and Videos.
Please, where can i find BG4all?

Rgds,
I was just wondering if the locks in Co0kies HT were customisable like the analogue clocks. The windows lock in particular could look very nice if the icon could be skinned.
Any idea?
The CHT Lockscreenfiles are manila files:
7A4563E2_manila Windows Slider
24B65A89_manila Background Manila Slider
26082591_manila Windows Slider pressed
50F29E37_manila HD mini Slider
61515C17_manila Manila Slider
They can be changed like the analog clock files.
That's great... Now to find someone who can design custom locks, I'm clueless with that stuff .
Ask Dinik. He already made a lockscreen for Windows and in HD mini style.
Dinik is already too busy with too many projects, he gets tons of requests everyday so I doubt he would have time for this.

Actually, any design that you like can be used as the lockscreen slider. I myself have made a bat slider for the Cookie lockscreen. See screenshot below.
Image Hosting
I would like to ask the following :
Tried and replaced the default manila file for slider icon (26082591_manila and 61515c17_manila) with two of dinik slider icons , but I came up with a messed up slider (look at screen shot) ... I assume that the dimentions of dinik icons are different ... any way to fix that ?
Thanks for your answers in advanced !!!
P.S. kangmas ... please link the sun weather icon ... THANKS !
Take the old image in the manila file as a template for the new image. And check the image file in CFC Gui. In "replace" it's the last file as standard. You have to change this. Seems like you took the false image (windows slider and manila slider are different).

Open the old image in your photo editing program (I'm using PaintShop Pro). Then add a new layer for working. In this you have to insert the new images (for example by copy and paste). Then you can adjust the new image over the old. At last delete the layer with the old image and save the file. With CFC Gui you can import the new image in the corresponding manila file. I'll attach the necessary old image files.

Hi mate ... never been good at editing pictures ... I never worked with Paintshop pro or any kin d of software for editing ... so I downloaded it and tried everything in my powers but I really cant get it done. So can you please teach me on how to add layers and replace an image with another ....
If you don`t have time to do this , can you please make me two files for CHT lockscreen ? Thank you in advanced !
Here are the files I need to change :
If you can add the slider background it would be amazing, because when I change the option to Windows default lockscreen in CHT I can`t add the background in any way ... and if I select the Manila style lock I don`t like the slider there.
Thank you very much !

I'll ask Dinik (made it already a little bit modded for myself).
Dinik said, he will make a lockscreen in his CHT theme. We have only to wait some days.
I hope we can get different elements from his theme, I really only want his CHT lock and clock.
Can someone make a skin using the lock from the dusk theme? Also could it be done in different colours?
Manila Slider and background
Can someone please make a cab for me? I can't handle the editing of the manila files...
One only with the background and one with all files (I don't know how the Manila Slider pressed file is named...)

anyone know the file to edit when you receive a msg in lockscreen?
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!!!!

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

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.
