I also have the graphics problem. Been mucking about in CS3 but no luck so far. Keeping the picture a bit smaller (699 x 479) gives a better result.

Here's another current problem, wich seem to effect (some) users and me too:

I have the same problem here on a Dutch Touch HD.

At first i didn't know what tweak was causing this 'bug', but after a hard reset en copying over the manilla files from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=419799&page=58 i stillhave the problem.

It seems like some value is still at 640 while it should be 800.

@NisseDILLIGAF : Did you use the original Touch HD files for this mod ? Seems like ypu used files from a 640 TF3D ? Keep up the good work anyway !
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Ascenca83:
So is there no solution until now for the annoying background image problem? Hope to find one soon.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] snootch:
I just finished getting all the backgrounds changed using a 512x512 image. The images aren't quite clean, but I can live with that for the time being. However, I have the same problem illustrated earlier in the thread with a portion of the white background missing on two menus:

-Stocks tab menu (view all, view all>menu>settings, rearrange & quote are messed up)

-Weather menu (menu>settings)

I know this is probably due to the different screen sizes between the Diamond and HD. Is anyone currently working on a CAB or procedure to do this process correctly? I'd do it, but even doing this mod (using the HEX editor & manila) is about the end of my technical abilities.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] taimoorhusain:
I cant beleive no one can fix this problem.. it is really annoying and basically makes the Background4alltabs more of an annoyance than a convenience on the TOuch HD... anyone have any thoughts on changing the background in the manila applications from 640 to 800... tis gotta be one simple file, but I cant seem to find it.... MUN_RUS ... where r u... hope u r feeling better....
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] sklappe:
Not a solution for the problem, but for something else.

Using a 512x512 pic in the background.

Still no solution for the Backrgounds4allTabs-bug ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] james00000007:
I think I'm going mad. I've read all posts in this thread 3 times and im still not sure if its actually possible to change the background and have no issues using the manila tool. If somone has a step-by-step guide on how to change the background for the other tabs , then it would be very useful.

Thanks
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ez2remember:
Wouldn't it be nice if there was an app to do the whole process for you. You simply choose a background image on your phone and the rest is handled automatically. If you frequently change your backgrounds it's a pain to constantly use your PC to edit the manila file, use a hex editor, transfer the file to your phone etc.

I'll gladly donate to anyone willing to take up this project. ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] james00000007:
Thankyou very much! Very easy to follow guide that I could not find on the site anywhere else.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] osnapitslexus:
Ok so I downloaded total commander and replaced the manila file, but after that touchflo won't launch. It kept saying tap here to launch touchflo3d. Could it be the ROM not making me do this?

I've attached the 512x512 png image which I want in all my tabs so if someone in the "know how" can kindly create manila files for me.

Thanks

Here is an edited manila file with your background, hope it works. However, the stripe in programs menu etc. doesn't dissapear even if I use an image with the size of 512x512 px. Since it seems to work for others I must do something wrong...

SOLUTION for the "background for all tabs" stripes

Hi all,

here is the solution for the background stripes problem. If you replaced the original 5c9aa261_manila with the one wich makes the backgrounds possible, you usually end up with stripes on some TF3D pages, shown in the first pic.

Copy the attached 5c9aa261_manila into your \Windows folder (using Total commander or resco explorer), and the problem is gone, see second screenshot.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Mr. W:
Sweet, that works perfect! Thank you!

Hi guys,

first of all thanks for all these tipps and .cab files here in this forum.

But i still have a problem with my manila files. I tried to replace the old file i downloaded by a new one in the manila editor, but the editor always gives me an error. what ever i do....... i cant replace it .

Test Cab File for Background on ALL Tab's and 15 Tabs....

(((Firstly - I've been away for a while so appologies if someone has already done this elsewhere but I thought this might help other members???)))

I've created a .cab file for my own use that gives you the 15 Tabs (Calendar, Call History, Com Manager etc) as well as the background on all tabs option....

I've done this to save time (and frustration) each time I either reset or change ROM's and have to re-install everything.

Having just loaded the latest HTC ROM after installing H-SPL I've just run the .cab file and it works very well - once installed I just needed to put the tabs in the desired order using Advanced Config - and its completely "uninstallable" too as Blob8me Extra Tabs 4 Touch HD" !!!!

I thought I'd post the .cab for you guys to have a look at - IF you approve then I'll create another .cab without the Calendar tab named as "Jeff's Day" and maybe with a selection of backgrounds? I've added a screenshot showing the current background.... :cool: This view also has "No Top Curtain" "TF3D Basic Icons" and "Handwriting" font installed after I'd installed my cab.

So - Can some of you guys test the cab installation for me on your HD's? Leave some feedback and tell me if you think it would be worth me creating another more generic cab for use by other forum members? If the feedback is positive then I'll create a new cab file and post it here.....

Thanks.....

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] chvcky:

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] djskwal:
If you want to put a wallpaper in all tabs without having a streched image, FIRST make your wallpaper in 960*1280 (or 480*640).

After that, resize your wallpaper in 512*512 without keeping the ratio. It will give you a kinda crushed image but don't worry it's normal. It has to be crushed!

Replace the pic contain into 4a087e41_manila file with the one you obtain just before. Don't forget to edit 4a087e41_manila file with an HEX editor (i'm using EditHexa Vista it's free) to fix the second line.

And That's it!

Hi,

When i change the backgroud with the tab "parameters", i have a semi-transparency of the bottom bar and of the top bar on the Home tab, like on the following screen :

I like this.

But, when i change the manilla files to get the same background for all tabs, bottom bar and top bar are grey and not semi-transparent :mad: (see the following screens)

Someone can help me to have the semi transparency for all the tabs ?

Thanks.

Hi guys,

i love the look of the wallpapers in all tabs.

However i can't find the 2 manilla files on my htc hd (dutch),

Thanx

Heres a zip with the 4xx_manila files....i've tested the blank and it works ;).

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bbonzz:
It IS still semi-transparent, but the background for all tabs, for now, is only 480x640 (still no way to make it 480x800), and is stitched to the middle. so you have 80px black (where there is no wallpaper) at top of screen, and the same at bottom (you can verify this using the "no curtains": you'll have the two black holes at top and bottom). So, tansparent over black = black.

So, the answer is: you cannot anymore have the semitransparency (for now). Better: you can have it, but only on homepage, using the same background but loading it directly from tf3d settings
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] JPW:
Hi Blob8me

Thanks for the cab

Couple of things

1 didnt like icon for calendar - too iphone

2 calling it Jeffs day? - my names not jeff.

3 wallpaper to grey - bit miserable

4 possible to make so we could choose the wallpaper?

5 all tabs worked well - didnt screw anything up!!

6 uninstallable - great!!

really like to test your next try - keep it up - good to see everyone having a go.

I'm not agree with you, image is not center when using Background for all tabs, as you can see:

Version 1 of 5c9aa261_manila:

Version 2 of 5c9aa261_manila:

only top of the screen have no wallpaper with second version of 5c9aa261_manila, but the bottom have it, so.....
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bbonzz:
are you using the 256x256 or 512x512 wallpaper? I have the 512, and have the black strip also in BOTTOM curtain. And i have also the image centered: the pic is cutted exactely in the way i've done it (i've done the WP myself), this means the bottom strip doesn't cover part of the image...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Nvidia32:
No it's a 512x512 picture and it's the same with my others backgrounds, only the top is black ;) and my picture is also like i have done it (photofiltre studio)

I make picture 512x512 with a part of transparency, like pictures of the exemple, so the coloured picture is only 512x463..

Hi guys, I'm new on this forum and have tried to change the background on all tabs but ran into a problem.

I've used the manila editor to change the picture in the 4a087e41_manila and used the HEX-editor aswell, and uploaded the changed file to the phone and restarted it and the background has not changed.

(I use swedish ROM)

I found that I should upload and replace 5c9aa261_manila but I can't replace or delete it, I've tried using active sync and Total Commander, but from what I can see in the TC, the file is in the ROM so can it be overwritten, if so, how?

I didn't understand if I would change anything to the 5c9aa261_manila before uploading it, should I?

Sorry if I missed something obvious, but I really did try searching for this.

Thanks.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bbonzz:
-Disable Tf3d (start/settings/personal/today/elements, untick tf3d)

-copy the file to device (sd cards, my documents, wherever you want but NOT \windows)

-with total commander/resco explorer move the file to \windows. Move, not copy, so you are sure it has been copied there.

-re-enable tf3d
