Hi guys..Anyone has any ideas on how to change the themes on the touch2?
Do I need another application like diamond in order to change the theme??
Thanks in advance
anyone can help?
i would say it should be just like the diamond..
give it a try!!
do you mean the color scheme or ... ?
Want to add in new theme like those from special created themes by Djoub..Not just change the color..
For diamond, need to use an extra software in order to change..
hey
not a mega user but i do own an ELF with the new manila2d from the mega installed
to change the M2D theme you need to change the graphics files in the windows directory that are linked to M2d. (the new M2d 2.0 thread in dev/hacking has some user created themes there to show you what i mean)
try that thread for more info....
i hope that this is it:
the soft: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392
and skins: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425974
unfortunately that isn't the right website i'm afraid.... i'll post the link below
here is the skins thread
[SKINS]NEW Touchflo 2D 2.0 ONLY(Weather/Flipclock) Skins/Themes
thats the best place for skins at the moment
hope this is of help
Start > Getting Started > Set Background > Change the background image
Select the Theme you would want from the listed.
You can as well select the items you want on the desktop by cliking on 'Items' tab.

Ok I just got my Diamond. I installed the Manila Customizer. I have some questions!
I have been able to install some of the files to add more clocks and stuff, but not others. It's like they are missing a file. Like the Benrus clock, Blackfire clock, or the Metal clock2 for example.
Then there are the ones that are cabs. Do I have uninstall them when I want to use a different clock or does it install them in the Manila program?
I also see themes out there. How does those work? Where do I put them?
Sorry I know this probably seems like stupid questions, but I'm lost!
Thank you,
Susan

well i haven't used mailla3d customizer but i have a tilt and have used manilla 2d customizer to set different themese for m2d. Basically to install a theme (a whole theme clock, background, etc everything) you have to copy the theme to the theme folder under the manilla customizer program folder:
e.g.
Programs ---> M2DC (u will probably have M3DC or tf3dc as diamond has tf3d) --> themes (this is the folder where you put the themes in.
most themes come in .zip format or .m2dct (again in your case it most likely will be .m3dct).
Also if you check out the diamond forum there is a whole thread on the manilla tf3d customizer and also threads on themes for tf3d.

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
Have fun....
You can download the theme made by me here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=662186

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.
-edit-mirost1 beat me to it
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 there!
I love my HD2 and I wouldn't change it to anything else. But there's one thing that drives me crazy when I look at the homescreen. It's the Sense 2.5 default slider icons.
Does anyone know where can I find the original slider icons (icons+slider background) from TouchFlo3D from Blackstone or any other VGA/WVGA device? I'm trying to find it, but all I have is some modified versions. I'd really love to have good old TF3D slider... Please, help me with that or at least tell me what to enter in the search engine (I've tried slider / icon / iconset / default / manila / stock etc. in every possible combination - I get tousands of threads and posts and no answer).
I'm sure, that the original PNG files for the icons are somewhere there, but I simply can't manage to look through all these thousands of posts that i find and the search doesn't help at all.
If someone provides me with the link to these icons I will make a package with only a slider using HDWall and put it here for other users like me trying to find it...
Or maybe there are some ready manila files to put straight to the /windows folder to overwrite the default Sense 2.5 icons? If anyone seen that, please, provide the link.
Thanks in advance!
Oh, and please, don't say anything like "why don't you try GTX or Dusk or sth". I tested it already, but I just want the old slider, not the full theme...

I opened up the GTX theme and have taken all the slider files from there...
Normally it should cover everything...

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.
NM
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
