Set a background image for SMS

Before I bought the T-Mobile HTC HD2, I was using an unlocked iPhone 3GS, and I want to know if you can set a background image for your Sms, like I did for the iPhone when it was unlocked, because that would be really cool. Also, I need figure out how to get rid of that giant clock, is there way in the settings, to get rid of it, or change the display, and if it say the time, in the top left or right corner?
hi not sure about the background for sms but if you install cookies home tab it will allow you to use a smaller clock or remove large clock alltogether and just have small clock in taskbar

ADW launcher, 1 frustration I am having.

I like this launcher, been using it a while, but I have one frustration with it each time I have to wipe and reinstall when trying different roms.
The frustration is dragging an item to the dock bar. What is the secret with this? I have to try to drag a single item about 10 times to the dock bar before it finally takes. I have no idea what I am doing wrong. I even have the dock set to the largest size to try and eliminate this but it doesn't work.
I know on Launcher Pro, when you drag an item, when it is in the right area, the icon turns a shade of red to let you know to let go, but in ADW there is no marker to let you know this.
What the heck am I doing wrong? This is something so simple and I feel so, n00bish with this.

Out of curiosity, you're not dragging it into the trash can by mistake, are you? I'm not trying to be condescending, I'm just trying to rule out everything.
That trash can still f's me up. I've also had the drawer button disappear. Sometimes it gets so frustrating that I just go back into settings and hit the fast preset to fix everything. I'm using ex btw.
I finally got tired of the crap and installed launcherpro. No problems so far.....
I thought this was just me..It would take me 20 times to add a freakin short cut to the dock! Got tired of it and went back to launcher pro.
I use ADW Ex, and didn't have the same issue...
What I found best worked for me was going into settings and under UI, changing the
Trash Can to appear up Top (Shrink Desktop) and that eliminated some of the
accidentally trashing icons...
As far as dropping icons i've never had an issue, the only thing i'm at odds with is how
in order to organize icons on the hidden dock you have to manually add them all over
again.
With the dock buttons disappearing, I went into ADW Settings and changed the
gestures for swipe up and swipe down to show/hide the main dock and show/hide the
hidden dock.
Hey All,
Thanks for the replies.
I was once having the issue with accidentally dragging an icon into the trash bin and ever since I changed it to not having the trash can icon anywhere but instead I hold on the icon and remove it when the menu pops up. So that trash can is no longer there.
I just have my dock on the bottom of the screen at the largest size (10 if I am not mistaken) and I try and drag the item from the applications list and this is where it just doesn't seem to take until that one time you get lucky and it takes.
Thank you again for the replies,
Whiteice
*EDIT* The main reason why I use ADWEX over Launcher Pro Plus is because of the ability in ADWEX to reduce the size of the icons in the text bar. Otherwise I would just have stuck with Launcher Pro Plus.

[Q] ARHD issue, no icons on lockscreen or main menu

As the title indicates I have no "goto" icons in my lockscreen and my home screen is missing the most important icons, the only on there is the middle one for all apps.
See file attatched
Is this a know bug and is there a way to sort it? Yes I have tried reinstalling the rom without any luck.
It seems to work with other launchers (Go Launcher and LauncherPro) but I really just want the stock feel.
Also settings seem to crash a lot...
I had this kind of issue with the lockscreen. If you can, try running the HTC setup app. It hopefully will restore it. Make sure you don't have any repeating Force Close messages, especially with HTC apps. That locks up the whole thing and usually forces you to have to restore a nandroid backup.
Well, that kinda worked for the lockscreen, I now have settings and one other thing there. I seem to remember there used to be a way to customize which icons to show? Any idea where to find it?
Anyone got any tips on the home screen icons?

[Q] New page on home screen. Where did it come from?

Hello all,
I'm a relatively new OnePlus One owner and yesterday after I rebooted my phone, a new page showed up as part of my home screen pages. What was the first home screen page is now the second one and this new page took it's place.
Since I have no idea what it is, I'm attaching a screen shot for reference in hopes someone might be able to tell me. It's mostly blank with the text that says:
Get some extensions!
Looks like you don't have any installed
extensions. CM Home currently supports
DashClock extensions, so go get some and check
back here!"​
Would anyone know where this suddenly came from and more importantly, how can I get rid of it? If I had wanted it there, I would have added it myself. Don't much appreciate a phone that doesn't respect user settings.
Thanks!
Tim
Nobody knows?
There must be some way of getting rid of this thing. It seems to have shown up after I updated to 38R. It's also mentioning something about Dash Clock. But since I don't have any app named Dash Clock installed, I have no way of uninstalling it.
Tired of these apps or themes, etc that just think it's fine to modify a user's settings and add whatever they want to a phone. I take the time to setup my phone for a reason. If I had wanted something changed or added, I'm perfectly capable of determining which apps I wish to have and where I wish to place associated folders, icons, widgets, etc.
Would be very appreciate if anyone could give me some advice how to get rid of that page.
Thank you!
It is part of the trebuchet launcher from cyanogen. You must have gone into the settings and turned on the CM Home search panel. Just go back into the launcher settings and change the search panel option to "off" and it should go away.

Thanks so much for the reply. I have looked already, but see nothing obvious listed in my Settings where I can find anything related to CM Home search panel. I have also searched for any apps that might be labeled as trebuchet, launcher, CM, etc. Would you mind telling me where exactly I can find such a setting as you mentioned?
Thank you again.

It is not in the phone settings it is on the home screen. Long press down on any part of the home wallpaper not covered by an icon or widget and you should see a menu bar pop up at the bottom with 3 icons for setting wallpaper, widgets and something else. There should be an up arrow near the top of the menu bar which when pressed will take you to the launcher settings, that is where you can change the options.

Question about Lock Screen Widgets

Hey guys,
The lock screen seems a little bit funky. I want to make it so that I can see a preview of text messages on the lock screen. Maybe I should just get a different SMS app?
I notice that it won't let me put two widgets on the same page on the lock screen. Whenever I try to add a widget to the home screen, it makes me make a new page. How could i add it so it shows the text preview under the clock? Some insight on this would be great. My Samsumg would show the text message automatically on the lock screen
