very easy.
when u want to change manila wallpaper (setting> personalize) , u have 2 option:
weather wallpaper
animated wallpaper
choose animated wallpaper and then select favorite wallpaper. now u have no weather animation in home screen.

i thought so, too, but there is still a little animation, right between my location and the alarm...

I noticed that too, I dont know if you would be able to remove that without installing some modded files - thats if there is a way to completely remove the weather animations at all.

If you would like a static, non animated wallpaper on your homescreen:
on the homescreen press menu (right softkey)
then press Home Wallpaper and finally press Animated Wallpaper. This will start HTC albums with three animated wallpapers in the directory. At that point, instead of selecting one of those three wallpapers press 'Albums' (right softkey), go to My Device or Storage Card and browse for the desired wallpaper.
The wallpapers used for the lockscreen are in My Device -> My Wallpapers. Those are static, no animations at all. You will still get the animation on the weather tab tho...
Hope this helps.

The only method to do this currently is to rename the WeatherService.dll entry in the registry to stop it from loading on startup. However, it comes with a few side effects.

the other option is to not update the weather. Click on the clock and add you city. Once this is done click on it and then just never update the weather and you will have no weather animation.
It's not an ideal solution but it works. Other than that use the animated wall paper like everyone else says

This won't stop the weather animation next to the clock and alarm.

it will if you dont update the weather as it doesnt know what to put there. you end up with this

Hi,
Nice Work
Weather thingy was right in the way in the middle of the screen!
Cheers,
Gavin

I wanted one of the weather wallpapers without the actual weather animation so i went into the folder with the weather wallpapers in and copied it into the folder with the animated wallpapers. This was then shown with the animated wallpapers allowing me to use a weather wallpaper without the animation. Animated wallpapers are located in Device/Windows/Animated Wallpaper. I can't actually find the weather wallpapers folder now. I know it's there somewhere but i can remember exactly where.

If you find the folder can you let me know cos it's annoying me that i can't find it.

Hi,
Weather is back in the middle on the screen and I can't shift it
Any ideas, please?
Cheers,
Gavin

On my TD2 I modded the 1c684cd8_manila (manila name: home.mode9).
Search for
Code:
<Property Name=Instance Name Value="Home_WeatherCom">
and add
Code:
<Property Name=Visible Value="False">
It removes the weatherfunction up to the displayed location name
And you can still use autoupdate and the weathertab
Edit: The attached CAB only works for Topaz Devices with WM 6.5 and Sense 2.1

Cab doesnt work for me, hd2 1.48 factory rom - T mobile.

remove weather animation
Hello guys. I am not sure if this will work on htc Leo, but I am using Leo ROM on my device and this work with no problem. Use Reg Editor :HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila] "Home.WallpaperMode"=dword:00000002

As David Balfour said, if you don't update weather it won't be there.
Bare in mind, you will have to wait for the 5 day forcast to run out!!!

Or delete: \Application Data\HTC\databases\forecast_cache.db
If necessary, it will be recreated automatically.

then you have to modify the manilafile yourself with m9editor.
i dont know if its the same filename as on my TD2 but the code should work anyway. the manila name is home.mode9. good luck

Which Rom are you using?

Is there a way to force the weather animation to animate? I wanted to show someone but could not at that time.

Just use the Demo. Hit menu on the today screen and then go to Weather Demo.

I don't have that option.

Hmm.. does it work on your weather tab?

No but its not a big deal. It seems to animate more when the battery is at a higher level. I will just wait when it snows or rains to show the cool animation.

Just open and close the task Manager in the upper right corner of the screen. If you're using the default background (or have weather set to animate with any background, like I do) it should animate with the current weather.

How do you set yours to animate with any background? I am running the stock VZW 6.5 ROM.
Thanks

Clear lockscreen for Android 2.1?

Does this exist? I want to be able to see my home screen through the lockscreen, like I could with Android 1.5.
I've got the clear lockbar, but can't seem to find the black background to the lockscreen to get rid of it. I've tried checking in Rosie.apk, com.htc.resources.apk, HtcLockScreen.apk and can't find it in any of those.
I made a transparent png and set that as my lockscreen wallpaper, but all I am getting is a black background.
Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks!

Nope wont work.

....So, nothing yet?

Did you look in the themes pages? On the first page there is a way to remove your lock screen so that way you can have just a lock picture and a volume picture on your screen. This is somewhat transparent so you could technically see your background... that's an option if you wanted.. :/

More info please? There's quite a few themes threads. No matter what I've tried, it won't make the lockscreen transparent in 2.1 so I can see my homescreen. I read somewhere it's because 2.1 uses a JPG as the background (JPG's can't have transparency), but have no idea if this is accurate or not. If so, sounds like it might be impossible. Why it would be changed from 1.5 to 2.1, beats me... Going backwards from using a PNG to JPG.

[Q] How to remove Sense 3.0 lock screen clock

Does anyone know how to remove the lock screen clock? I've read in a few places where it's mentioned that you can flash a blank font .ttf file but all the blank .ttf's I've found haven't worked. I've got a .zip file that works to flash fonts, but I've tried to rename several blank .ttf files to Clockopia.ttf and flash and haven't got one to work yet. Is it possible to do this either by the method I describe or via another method. Attached is a pic of my lockscreen with the clock I want removed circled in red.

Can't you just the "wallpaper" home screen?
Whoops, just kidding, I don't know the answer to that question.

I would assume that it would take editing the framework in the htclockscreen.apk
though I could be wrong. I am sure Dilli or another dev will drop by and tell you.

Well I'm pretty sure that clock info is part of the lockscreens framework. As regards to changing to wallpaper, the clock still stays there I belive

The clock will stay there after you change wallpapers.

I know depending on what rom you are using you can over ride the lock screen with a aosp one. On android revolution there is one since I was not a fan of the new lock screen I flashed the patch and bingo no more stupid circle

Press thanks if I helped you.

cool. so this just adds the transparent notification bar, correct? like, no theme on the side?
and i read somewhere (where exactly has slipped my mind), but someone was saying that you can't use different wallpapers with a transparent notification bar. is this true? if not, i'm flashing this right away!

you can use it.
if you are using adw launcher then just untick wallpaper hack under settings
or using any other launcher use multipicture live wallpaper for any wall pic you have

Ponda, this one has a pretty nice theme with it (plus transparent bar). Transparent bar works if used with Live Wallpapers (no black/opaque bar anymore!)

it only works with live wallpapers or, if i'm using adw, with wallpaper hack unchecked? since i flashed to kpe and then to kph, live wallpapers have been causing my phone to slow down at the home screens and while opening the app drawer. i'll still give it a go
i'm using clear glass theme at the moment. is there anyway to get just the transparent status bar (without the theme you mentioned)?

if u take the systemUI.apk from Version 2 and place it the already existing glass theme, the status bar will surely become transparent. but what i CAN'T say for sure is what else will be changed...battery icon, notification pulldown etc...if u wanna try it, just make sure u make a backup of systemUI.apk of the glass theme (system/apps/...) and then replace it with the systemUI.apk of this theme (Version 2). if u like the result, great. if u dont like it, just replace it again with the backup copy. as for ADW, i dont use it. search and download MULTIPICTURE LIVE WALLPAPER from the market (free version). Its a live wallpaper, but u can use ur own static wallpaper as the background (more than one)

ot it works! but now there's a bar at the top of all my apps that's a different color from everything else. oh well, trade off
multipicture wallpaper ALSO causes lag (a little on adw launcher, a lot on others). using the wallpaper thing now. i shud look into this live wallpaper lag....
thanks for the help!

LOL since the bar is now transparent, it keep changing according to the color of the app we are using i'll try the transparent bar over glass theme. Besides the bar, did anything else change?

everything about the notification bar except the battery icon changed

help? how to do this great motification bar??? the first i tried it bricked my phone and i needed to reflash

can somebody pls post a step by step procedure for this? thank in advance and may i ask if it is possible to flash in CWM the zip file???
