To Mystic Genius:

I will probably be taking the Touch Pro back within my 30 day time frame with Sprint to get a new one. It keeps shutting off during the night while I am sleeping. Weird thing is, it's hooked to a charger (wall) all night. I wake up late cuz my SPB Time alarm didn't go off (cuz the phone's dead) and it won't turn on. I have to remove the battery briefly, re-install it and THEN it will power on and the battery is almost 100% !! Sounds like a device issue to me!

To my point/question: Do you do instant messaging or maybe some other means to help me install this black and red theme manually? I catch on pretty quick, just don't know how to implement some of the edits/configurations needed to get this theme working. Please let me know. Otherwise, I will re-install gordic's cab and keep searching for a fix. Thanks!

I tried this.... my clock font got all big and ugly ((looks like arial black font instead of the previous fuzzy font)). Any idea how to get my old clock back ?

The rest seems to work like a charm though. Thanx!

Hi Evelynn,

How did you get access to the original selected globe image...? I've customised my own colours, using a colour filter in PhotoShop, and want to ause the same filter on the original green selected globe, so I have the same modified colour as the rest of my theme...

Thanks...!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] clampi:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Fat Boy:
Thanks for this and I installed some of it and looks good. I have one problem though there is a "Hero" icon for the comm manager but there is no "Tray" icon for the comm manager. Is there anyway to get this, does anyone have it? It would be great to get the "Stock" tab icons as well so this theme will work with all my tabs, I need the Hero, Tray, and Highlighted tray files. If anyone can help, thank you.

Does it work in the official 2.03 ROM?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Voriasus:
I'm pretty new to all this so if someone could help or direct me that would be great and I would be most thankful!

For the installation instructions, I just don't understand how I would go about # 4 & 5.

Like I said I'm new to this, I can do everything else in the instructions just fine I just have no idea how to go about those two.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] manoli20:
jus a real random question ye, but if i edited the png files to my desired colour, and applied them as with the manila files in the zip, would it change to my desired colour? basically, do i jus have to change png files, or manila, or both?

Cheers
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
you would need to extract the png, edit the colour then place your edited png back into the manila and then copy the manila into the windows dir
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] manoli20:
ok when you say put the png back into the manila, what exactly do you mean? thanks for the reply btw
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
Well you will have to open each manila, extract the png to your desktop, make your edit, and then replace the edited png into whatever manila it came out of.

how else will the edit you make get onto the phone.....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] manoli20:
ye of course.... ok well thanks, i'll try and see wat i can come up with
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] manoli20:
ok so ive edited all the manila files to my dired colour, but i cannont move over selecteds png files into windows as i "do not have access" to change them. is this because im on a TP? or is there someway to enable the overwriting of windows files?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] manoli20:
^^^^^^^^^^^IGNORE^^^^^^^^

i was trying to move them over with my pc... DUH, TC to the rescue!

ok, so ive edited all the files and now ive got a real smooth deep (sony erricsson) style purple look going on... im well pleased :D !!!

the only thing that is now missing, is i need help for editing the .tsk file, and turn all the highlighted items to the colour i want.

ive used ThemeGenCE, but not to full success...

is there any chance of some guidance here??

thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] bog3nator:
ok i have a question, i tried this and everything worked fine. but it destroyed my dial pad for the phone. when i unistalled it, it went back to normal. any thoughts on why?

it basically made the dial pad invisable.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Tiken972:
very nice job ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
any chances of a black and white theme? that would look really cool.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] nitty917:
anyone be so kind to incorporate this into a cab file? that would be great.

thanks in advace :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Gregorius:
very nice indeed, that is what i want, i just want default icons, not orbs :)

can you do that ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Elvelynn:
Why not.

Just send me a PM which colors you want to have ;)

Then I could list all the file I've changed.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] R3PUBL1K:
yes the are just get the CABS that have RED in them the bottom Icons will remain the same -i have chenage mine.

if you would like the clear/red clock then use the red numbers cab below.

Remember to quit touchflow before you make these changes.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Gregorius:
ok, i have tried what you said, it looks awesome

still, if i may suggest few fixes:

- when i click on start, and menu drops down, the colour there is still green,

- then in contacts, colour around edges for favourite contacts is still green.

- Also in internet , colour behind globe is still green

- same goes when you go into mail menu, edges around letter when selecting mail account are still green.

-and submenus, like comm manager, sound, etc. (basically all submenus in settings) have those green dots and green slider bars

- when connecting pda with pc and it gives you wheter to choose active sync or disk drive mode - green dot

- copying file, progress bar is in green

if those things were all red, then this would be really perfect. It would be great if you could pack it alltogether in one package. I tried to make it my own, so here it is:

http://freeweb.t-2.net/studio-jasmin/defaultred.theme

but still,basically is what you made with addition of red colour behind globe in internet menu, everything else is still missing.

can you help ?

thanks

Hi,

I have downloaded the full theme from rapidshare and i have the TF3D Config Tool installed, but when i navigate to where the theme is the TF3D Config Tool doesnt show me the file!

is there a way round this? i cant see anyone else with this problem!

(i only got my diamond yesterday but im pretty savvy with WM6 as i had the HTC Hermes for about a year)

thanks for your help
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gordic:
Hi there

I have converted most of your fixes into red. Still missing is:

- when i click on start, and menu drops down, the colour there is still green

Everything else should be red. It is based on leopardone's red highlights http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2534340&postcount=1.

But as I am not very familiar with creating cabs and theme files (I am trying to figure it out tomorrow ;) ) I can only provide a zip with all the files. The zip contains the manila files and the other pics needed to convert all the green bars into red. There is also a theme (tsk) file for the red menu highlights. Copy everything into the windows folder choose the new theme via settings and soft reset.

Enjoy,

gordic
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Stevie18:
I too downloaded the theme from Rapidshare. It changed everything from green to red. Well impressed. I also downloaded the Action Screen, but that's still in green. Is there any way of changing that to red aswell.

Also are there any other icon set that can be transferred onto this theme. I tried one set earlier but instead of changing the icons it made the top and bottom bar go white....uurgh.

Advice really appreciated.... :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Gregorius:
will try it

thnx for now

ok :); after trying, almost perfect for me, though still i would like to see:

- when i click on start, and menu drops down, the colour there is still green

- in music player, little dot when playing file is still gree

- when going in file explorer, or for instance in submenu to change wallpaper picture, colour of marked file, picture is still green

- in submenu phone, call history or all contacts, when you browse, colour is green

- in top bar, when you click most right icon, to close or open programs, (where you see cpu usage), there is still green colour

- when entering in menu SETTINGS or PROGRAMS, any icon you mark, it is green coloured

- progress bar loading website in opera browser is in green colour

- when copying files, progress bar is still in green

- bar selecting folders or files in resco explorer or file explorer is still green

- when entering pin number, button named ENTER is in green

i think that would make this HTC BLACK RED theme perfect !

can you help, do it ? i would be tremendously happy :)

thank you

best regards
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gordic:
I will try, but I am quite busy the coming days with other stuff.

I also don't know how to change the color on some of the items you requested.

I think that some are already solved if you go to SETTINGS->PERSONAL->TODAY and select Htc black red theme. It should solve:

- when going in file explorer, or for instance in submenu to change wallpaper picture, colour of marked file, picture is still green

- in submenu phone, call history or all contacts, when you browse, colour is green

- when entering in menu SETTINGS or PROGRAMS, any icon you mark, it is green coloured

- when copying files, progress bar is still in green

- bar selecting folders or files in resco explorer or file explorer is still green

Maybe someone else could point me into the right direction for the following items:

- when i click on start, and menu drops down, the colour there is still green

- in top bar, when you click most right icon, to close or open programs, (where you see cpu usage), there is still green colour

- progress bar loading website in opera browser is in green colour

- when entering pin number, button named ENTER is in green

Help is very appreciated. Thanks

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Seelenfresser:
you have to run vodafone.tsk and then select vodafone theme from Settings->Today...

For the start menu you have to do the registry edit provided in the first post.

Opera still green and phone canvas still green. Donno what to do about that.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Elvelynn:
I also didn't found out how to change these things until now.

Maybe someoneelse have got an idea?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Gregorius:
hm, will try that

but where to find vodafone.tsk ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Seelenfresser:
In the zip file you downloaded?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 964rs777:
most of the files you still want to change are not manilla files.

they are windows 6.1 files that is why changing to vodaphone .tsk

changes them.

change to any red windows tsk file and it will change these items.

google windows .tsk themes and it you can choose from loads.;)

'BLUE & Black'

Wow, truely, amazing, oh i sooo wish i could get a blue one, please, please *kisses feet*

Just as blue as the red, ie pure blue

There are already parts of this theme: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2581613&postcount=1

A Black and Blue? I've tried, but my photo editing software does not allow it on all the pictures. I think that it could be done by simply changing the red hue to -127 so that it is pure blue but looks the same, i don't know what photo software you guys are using. But could anyone help me with tips, or create a 'Blue & Black'?

:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] wrather:
..

i have created a blue and black theme already, just waiting for Elvelynn to add it to hes post
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] HTCDiamond22:
Great:D, I have also just done so, but some things don't work:o, like the music bar under TF3D music player. Anyway, very excited to see yours. If someone does upload again, please try something besides rapidshare. many thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Seelenfresser:
Another addition:

To get rid of the green highlights in the phonepad, edit the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\PHONE\highlightColor

change to (dword, hex) 990000

wonder why vodafone.tsk doesn't do it....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Seelenfresser:
...and the taskmanager menu...

under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\TaskManager

create the following BINARY keys:

ManilaCustomHlUp=99 00 00

ManilaCustomHlDown=99 00 00

Exactly like on first post, but for taskmanager instead of start menu.

Soft reset and rejoice ^^
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] HTCDiamond22:
*waits patiently* for Blue+Black theme *puppy breath*

wrather, Elvelynn and all others that helped, good spells on you!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Seelenfresser:
Anyone managed to modify Opera's skin to complement this?

I managed to change the menu highlight to red but no luck with the progress bar... once I try to edit the images related to the progress bar (I just take hue down by about -90), it just stops completely showing the progress.. and I think it also makes opera kinda slow.. probably the programs I use save the bitmap in the wrong format. the files should be 32bit bmp (24bit+alpha channel) and all the programs I used could only save as 24bit bmp...

has anyone managed to do this?

or maybe someone with vodafone rom can upload their standard_skin.zip from \windows\opera9\skin??

anyway once I'll be near a computer with photoshop I'll try with that and post back.

Cheers
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] bennec83:
Is there anyway to make a cab file that would apply your 2 changes and the one in the original post?

thanks for the registry changes
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Seelenfresser:
Well there is. I just have no idea how to do it ^^

I'll research abit and see if I can come up with a modified .tsk file.

Anyway for opera, put the attached zip file in \Windows\Opera9\Skins, overwriting the one currently there (always a good idea to back it up first)

enjoy
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] bennec83:
sorry im abit slow this morning i jus woke up!!

do you mean there is a way to make a cab but you just dont know how?

also what in opera does this zip change?

thanks for your help - (i think i may be able to create that cab i asked about!!)

Eagerly awaiting the blue version - alternatively psd's/templates would be brilliant too as I ultimately want to do a claret and blue scheme for my football team (West Ham United)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Elvelynn:
Will see if I'll have enough time this evening to upload a blue theme ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] HTCDiamond22:
just curious, which photo editor do you use for photo editing? i used MS office photo editing software, and it does not work so nice
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] bennec83:
I use Adobe CS4 is the best you can get but there is a learning curve but you can do anything you want
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Seelenfresser:
the zip file I posted just changes the green stuff to red (only the progress bar and the menu highlights actually)...

about the graphics editing software it is best to use photoshop because manila is very picky about the format... bmp files usually have to be 32bit (24bit+alpha channel) in order to work and most programs don't support that mode.

and yes, I meant that I have no idea how to create a cab or a tsk file.

tried googling and could only come up with microsoft theme generator which couldn't open the vodafone.tsk file...

if anyone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it...

Cheers ^^
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Elvelynn:
Does anybody here know how to edit a *.tsk-file?

Because if I wanna make a good blue them, than I also want to change the red vodafone.tsk into blue ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Gregorius:
using all theme with tsk file does make it black red, expect in phone submenu, when you get to choose people you called, there is still green.

otherwise, very nice look in black red, i love it.

Problem is, when i try to revert to default theme, still some stuff is not changed back to default.

- (change volume) bars are in red, not in white no more

- dot selecting activesync or disk mode option when phone is connected to PC is red
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Elvelynn:
Yes, that's right, because for my theme I changed also some windows-bmps which will not be deleted with the tf3d-config-tool.

You have to delete them manually:

- HTCUSBToPCPopUp.png

- HTCVolumeControl.png
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] omniwolf:
hey, great theme. any chance you can make an icon for the calendar?

for this TF3D mod:

thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Elvelynn:
This will be next point on my to-do ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Seelenfresser:
for phone menu, taskmanager and opera read my posts at the previous page.

as for reverting, you have to overwrite all modified images with the originals... next time be a good boy and back things up. you got sprite backup included with your diamond. use it ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gordic:
Thanks to all of your contributions I could finally finish my Black RED theme which I would like to share with you. Please feel free to reuse any of the contents for modifications.

The attached zip file contains two files:

- A cab file which installs all changed manila files and WM png's as well as a tsk

- A zip which changes color of the Opera skin

Install instructions:

1. Backup "standard_skin.zip" from \Windows\Opera9\skin (otherwise there is no way to revert to green)

2. Copy "standard_skin.zip" from attached zip to above mentioned folder

3. Install "gordics HTC Black RED.cab" directly from you device (after installation you are prompted to soft reset to make changes active)

4. After reset go to Settings->Today and select "Htc black red" theme

5. You are done and everything should be red

To uninstall just overwrite "standard_skin.zip" again with your backup, select "Htc black" theme from settings, uninstall my skin through remove programs under settings and reset.

Hope you enjoy.

gordic
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] lao_tiko:
Gordic,

I copied your standard_skin.zip to windows/opera9/skin, soft reset, basically followed your procedures, but the opera highlight is still green. Could you kindly advise?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Seelenfresser:
it's just like a cab.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] omniwolf:
i have a problem with menus..

not sure if it's been mentioned. you can see from the screenshot the background of the items needs to be something other than black, as the text is black so its unreadable.

this menu is if you go to the programs tab on TF3D, and click the + button to add a new program.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gordic:
Thats weird because it works for me. Does anyone else have this issue?

Basically for the Opera skin to change you don't need to soft reset, just copy/overwrite the original (backup original first!!) and start Opera again.

Maybe it has something to do with the ROM? What version do you have?

I am running the HTC 1.93 ROM and not facing any problems.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] harvsHK76:
Hi,

I really like the black n red. Problem though, when I install as per the instruction, I cannot see all icons etc in red only those under the start menu? Have I missed something for full installation?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Harts@J:
Thanks guys, excellent job. I have now mixmatched gordic's, elvelynn's and jameslovell's files installed for a Black on Red Diamond. It looks just great.

My ROM version is 1.37.707.1 WWE

Radio v 1.00.25.03

I copied again to no avail. :-(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gordic:
As I was thinking more about it, it came to my mind that it could also be the version of Opera itself rather than the ROM.

What we could try is that you send me your original standard_skin.zip and I will try to change it as I did for mine. But I won't be able to do it today. Only tomorrow.

Maybe you can PM me with your original zip.

I belive he means the internet globe background. I have the same issue. Still green even after manually copying the own_globe_selected.png file to winfows directory. I'm running 1.93.413.3 SVE and Opera 9.5 build: 1938
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sixpackbud:
Anyone have any ide how to make this work for me. The red (green) globe in manila is the only thing left and is really annoying. I have copied manila file (27c65cbd_manila) and the png (own_globe_selected.png) several times to the windows directory using windows commander, softreset etc but still have the green background.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gordic:
I am sorry but I have no idea.

Did you have a look at content of the 27c65cbd_manila file? Or did you try the globe from my previous post?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2587148&postcount=9)

I assume that this manila file should be the same for everyone.

I have got the instruction on how to change the background of the globe from: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2555654&postcount=3

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] omniwolf:
thanks for the red calendar.. its a different colour red to the other icons though... :( the other icons are more faded
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Elvelynn:
I know, but that's a first version, will see if I can make it more like the others.

The problem ist, that I didn't made the other icons completely new, I only changed the color & saturation.

But I will try and give my best ;)
