HDWall and Manila 2.5.1920 on an HD2...

After two days faffing around with this app, trying to get it to create landscape backgrounds and new slider icons for my HD2...

And, after reading through pretty much all 118 pages of this thread...

I have come to the conclusion that although this tool works fine for creating portrait backgrounds, it does not work if you use it to create landscape backgrounds or new slider icon sets to be used on a 'standard ROM' HD2 using manila 2.5.1920.

I do concede that there is still a possibility that I have not configured it properly for this version. But the reason for that is that I simply cannot see parts of the non-resizing screens with the screen resolution I am using on my computer. (Another quite big flaw with this application - see attached screenshot for example of config screen))

However, judging by the screenshots I have seen, I think I have set it up correctly for Sense 2.5, so this is as good as it is going to get.

If anyone out there has got it to work on the above version of Sense, I (and no doubt many other HD2 owners) would very much appreciate hearing how they did it.

Finally, this is in no way meant to be viewed as critism of the developer. I appreciate the work that every developer on this forum does and understand that he/she simply has not been able to find the time to further develop this tool.

However, I would say that if it is known that the application does not work (or only partially works) with certain versions of Manila, it would save a lot of people a lot of time if this information were available on the first page of the thread. If people then do not read it, then that's their problem!

WM6.5.3 thin topbar and big start button

Guys, how should I set it to have the skinned WM's top and bottom bars for the new 23xxx thin top bar and big bottom bar?

So far I succeeded in creating a portrait and landscape cab for Sense 2.1
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] spark001uk:
Ok, i did this, followed the instructions, and my wallpaper turns out split up and squashed in the middle, as the pic shows. What did i do wrong?

Just out of interest, i took a screeny and measured the main portion of the wallpaper, it appears to be about 450x544 (which obviously doesn't reach the right hand side of the screen either). Odd. Any help??

(HD2, sense 2.5, wm 6.5, manila 1921)

What resolution is the original image
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
a little more info please

people need to know what device you are using what rom you are using, sense? Manilla? All kinds of WinMo 6, 6.5, 6.5.x - all that stuff makes a difference.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] shaggydabbydo:
I have a HD2 (T8585) running the following:

OS - 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)

Manila - 2.5.19211619.0

ROM - 1.48.405.2 (71294) WWE

Radio Version - 2.05.51.25_2

While HDWall created the right size dot png file, when running through the other instructions I could not get the cab file to load so have ended up merely with a portrait background on the Today screen via the intial dot png file.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] spark001uk:
Ah i think i've cured it! I uninstalled the wallpaper cab, then i installed the hqpatch for 1920 manila. Mine's 1921, but it appears to have sorted it, i reloaded a few of the wallpaper cabs i'd made or downloaded before, and they're fine now! :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] jefafa:

Thanks in advance.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] peebah:
Help please??!!

I've been trying to get this to work for days to display full screen when rotating into landscape for music or pics/videos. Problem is that I get a 15mm black gap on right hand side of screen. Tried multiple cabs, configs but keep getting the same problem. Everything else working great. This is driving me up the wall. Can anyone help as I cant find anyone else describing the same problem.

an error occured during installation -2147024891 after press the "set wallpaper" button

any ideas?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
?????

Just making sure- do you mean you got that error when you tried to install your wallpaper on your device using HDWalls on your device? Because i always get an error when i am try trying to install my wallpaper using HDWalls from my device. so i don't even bother. I just go to the folder where i placed my cab and wallpaper files and run the cab from there.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] funkydrgonzo:
yes. from the hdwalls tool. now i installed it directly but there is no wallpaper.

question: i have a standard htc touch hd withou any hacks etc. so which profile should i set?

thx maisonpulaski
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
did you...

ok- i am not that knowledgeable about other devices (I am on the Imagio [whitestone]) so you will probably have to search this thread since it is in the HD Touch forum there should be an answer here. I am a noob so i am asking from a noob point of view. When you created your wallpaper and then your cab- did you stick them in a folder together? For instance-

1. since i am running 6.5 and want top and bottom bar skins first i create the images (3 images- a.wallpaper b. top bar c. bottom bar

2. then i creat the cab.

3. I creat a folder on the computer and stick the cab and 3 image files in the folder.

4. Then i transfer the folder to my device with Active Sync or Windows Mobile Device Center.

5. Run the cab from the folder with the image files.

You can just private message me if this does not help or you need more help bc i do not want to hi-jack this thread.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] arucard98:
Ok, I am still new to my touch pro 2 and call me crazy but I don't want to flash the rom yet.

I'm trying to create a custom HDWalls wallpaper in landscape and portrait mode.

I need to to know the size(aspect ratio, width height) of each image (landscape and portrait) and I need to know if this even works for my stock t-mobile rom.

I got the phone only maybe 2-3 weeks ago.

When I make a cab from HDWall and install it (either manually or through HDWallS) It only loads the landsacpe picture. I've read a lot of posts and I want to know

1. Will this work for the stock rom.

2. What aspect ratios should I be using.

3. What settings should I be using in HDWall.

I've spent 3 entire days with mixed results trying to figure this out. Please someone help!

(also) here are some methods I've tried, and the only thing I can come down to is the aspect ratio is wrong?

I've tried chainging the config of WM 6.5 - No Compression - Etc.

Tried 480 x 800

tried my own res

tried 1333 x 800

Tried the Auto Crop

And editing my reg, my today settings. nothing gives me the portrait image. and nothing displays my current landscape(the last one I updated.)

It never works! I'm sad because it's posted here in the TP2 area...and it seems to work?

Pls help me

Thanks in advance
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] moodman:
its working for me but

Fisrt of all i would like to thank the creator of this great app :)

its working for me but the wallpaper is showing small (not in full screen).:(

i have hd2 stock rom 1.66

Manila 2.5.1921

please help me :confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
it is possible. You need some sort of program for working with graphics, pictures, images etc. I just used and old cheap copy of Print SHop. Here is how i did it. 1. In configuration I used TF 2.0 no compression. Open the Advanced Profile Editor- check the option "6.5 Taskbar Skin Etc." Load your image. Auto Crop. Save the image (name it whatever you want- for this example we will call it "Image1"). This saved image will have a resolution of 480x696. Create the cab (not to use the cab- just to use the images that are created with the cab). So convert the files. Create the cab. Navigate to where you saved the cab and there will also be 3 image files there. One will be MYWallpaper and another for the top bar and bottom bar. Here's where it gets tricky. Don't use the MyWallpaper image (it has a smaller resolution). Use "Image1" that you saved and combine it with the top and bottom bar using Print Shop (or whatever you have).

if you don't need 480x800 it is a lot easier bc you don't have to combine the images. but if you use 480x696 for your start menu background it is all goofed up.

so anyways...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] turtlesensei:
My first HDwall. Thanks GamerGuy80 for your help.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Superpapagei:
cant get it to work ..

ok i have been trying this for an hour or more right now and i just cant get it to work.

What Software i use:

ROM: Artemis 2.8 Hardreseted

Manila: 2.5.19222911

HDWall: 0.28

HDWalls: 0.24 included in HDWall 0.28

Created a .cab like the HowTo said.

Installed

1. HQWallpaperPatch v1.22 - for Manila 2.5.19223829

2. HDWalls 0.24

3. MyWallpaper.cab (renamed but however)

Tried everything as is posted in post #1

What happend so far:

Well i have the correct upper and lower picture parts set for the Taskbar etc.

but the main BG is still black as in default. I have no clue where to find the main BG picture the last puzzle peace.

Sorry if i missed something just stupid but it seems like i dont get the clue :-(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Superpapagei:

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] moodman:
any help :o
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] spark001uk:
@Moodman: Try this, it fixed it for me, and im running 1921 manila.

First of all uninstall your hd wallpaper from the remove programs list, then restart device. Im assuming youve installed hdwall on the pc, so now on the pc go to \program files\hdwall\manila mods\ and you should see a file named HQWallpaperPatch_v1.2_forManila2.5.1920.cab , send this to the phone and install it (to device memory). Then try your wallpaper. Worked for me! But the only way i could get the top and bottom bars to change properly to match the wallpaper was to uninstall my previous hd wallpaper, then power off the device and turn back on (rather than soft reset, which didnt seem to work for some reason), then install the required wallpaper, then power off and on once again. Bit of a mess about, but once youve got one you like youll tend to leave it i think! Hope this helps.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Jamie-:
Is it possible to skin the taskbar and softkey area when running WM6.1 & Manila 2.1? In the HDWall configuration it implies that this is possible with WM6.5 only.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] maranell0:
It is only possible under WM 6.5

My name is Susi and I am from Germany.

I have been involved in the last week with the design of my new phone and I come across this forum.

Of course, on hdwall.

Now, I have the following problem:

Here is a picture of my current display:

To 1: my little pictures are cut off below! Why?

To 2: it shows the old pop-up pictures! Why?

I believe this threat is my question better hands!? :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] moodman:
Dear spark001uk,

thank u, thank u, thank u, :) i really appreciate it

Its Working, (but)

its working in all the tabs except the home tab ???

Any idea :confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] moodman:
its working it edit on the registery as dear maranell0 said . and remove the value of homebackground

:)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Susihexe:
I´m very unhappy :(

i have read this threat from the first to the last site, but i can´t find a solution for my problem.

i don´t know, where i must copy pictures to see the correct aktiv-tabs with my horses.

i work with hdwall - slider: i took my pictures in correctly size (128px + 64px)

then i click convert.

i go to "create cab" make there my settings, the cab was created, everything right, i copy the cab to my handy, installed, everything correct, but the aktive-tab is always the old one, not my horses :( :confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
"In TF3D settings, go to Wallpapers. Select default background for your homepage under settings. Using a registry editor (I use CeRegEditor, it's free) connect your phone to your computer (or on your phone just use Total Commander) and open its registry. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER -- software -- HTC -- Manila. Look for the HomeBackgroundPath key and change its value to '0'. Save your changes and soft reset your phone."

this worked for me. i read it somewhere on here.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
Do you put the cab in a folder with your images?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ccino6:
hi, i cant seem to find the files needed to delete so as to make the home tab come out as the rest of the tabs. i cant find the Total Commander thing, or the HKEY_CURRENT_USER -- software -- HTC -- Manila. how do i get to these files?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
How to make HDWallpaper appear on homescreen:

Here is Total Commander (cecmd.arm) and PHM Registry Editor. Total Commander is a file explorer that also has a registry editor. PHM is a registry editor and will probably be easier for you to navigate. So try it first.

1. Download the cabs from here. Put the cabs on your storage card (or main memory) using active sync or Windows Mobile Device Center. Use the File Explorer on your phone to navigate to the place where you saved the .cab files. Click on the .cab files and the installation process will begin. You can install to your storage card or main memory.

2. Go to your start menu and open PHM. Tap the + sign next to HKEY_CURRENT_USER. Go down to Software, tap the + sign next to Software. Go down to HTC, tap the + sign next to HTC. Go down to Manilla. There will be no + sign. Double tap the Manilla folder. When you do, a list will pop up on the bottom half of the screen. Look for something that says HomeBackgroundPath. Tap on it and it will open a screen. Under "Value data:" there will be some information (write it down and save it somewhere in case you need to re-enter it). Delete what is says and enter "0" (without quotations). Click ok. Soft reset your phone.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] TheTmac:
i use Manial 2.1.19202517.0 ..

i made a .cab file, but i don't get it to work ? when i installed the .cab file on phone this pops up:

WARNING! By disabling TouchFLO 3D you will lose certain device features. It is strongly recommended not to disable it. Press 'Chancel' buttom below to keep TouchFLO 3D enabled.

any ideas about this ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ccino6:
wow! it worked perfectly! great instructions, but i didnt need to reset my soft reset my phone for the change to take affect. i hope that doesnt mess anything up. thanks again you guys are awesome. thanks maisonpulaski, thanks a lot!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
i have an idea- can't tell you for sure- but i can tell you that i am pretty sure. When you create your .cab in with HDWalls in the Manilla cab creator there is an option "Automatically Restart TouchFlo 3D". By default that option is checked. So- when you install your .cab, it automatically turns TouchFlo 3D off and either restarts it or you manually restart it in the "Today" screen by selecting it with a check mark. Your device is just giving you a warning that it is being turned off. Shouldn't be any big deal. if it is not automatically restarted, then just restart it from the "Today" settings.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dt-floppy:
has someone an idea why my hd wall is working on homescreen but not in the other tabs?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
when you configured HDWalls- in the profile setting- did you use and "all tabs" profile? or a "home tab" profile?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
Yes, with this patch, made for 2.5.1922 originally.

But it is working great on 2.5.2011

Just don't use the Cookie Monster patch profile in the configuration,

as it will cause the bars to appear misaligned.

Just use the 6.5, 2.5, all tabs, no compression setting.

Check the boxes for Sense, but not the patch check box.

Cab up your HDwall.

Install the patch here, soft reset. Then install your HDwall cab file.

You only need to apply this patch once, unless of course you install a mod that breaks it.

Good luck and enjoy! ::)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] kidwolf908:
Hi all,

I am trying to get my wallpaper to create the transparent effect on the taskbars, however, I am having quite some difficulty.

I am using the VZW 6.5 ROM w/ Sense 2.1 and for a wallpaper, I am using the MightyROM Burberry picture.

I also have the m.carroll GlossBlack theme installed as well as the BilboBrian CDMA taskbar (Santod linked to this in a thread on PPCGEEKS).

In HDWall, I set the profile to WM 6.5 - TouchFLO v2.1 - No Compression - All Tabs, with WM 6.5 Taskbar & Softkeybar Skinning checked.

I load the portrait wallpaper and HDWall shows it occupying the whole screen, including taskbars, but when I put it on my device, I get no transparency.

I have tried going back to Windows Classic theme as well as the VZW theme. I haven't tried uninstalling the taskbar, but I don't see how that could affect me seeing as others use custom taskbars with HDWall and get the transparent taskbar.

Any ideas?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
Make sure you are using THIS profile in the picture here.

This one will allow skinning of the taskbar and softkey bar on a Sense 2.1 rom

Not the one for stock rom TouchFlo 2.1

Hope that helps! :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] kidwolf908:
This is exactly what I have done.... same profile and all. I have even installed the wallpaper, restarted sense, and then soft reset the phone, but still no go.

I guess I'll try to remove my theme again and see if that fixes it.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
Try this, and see if anything different happens.

Did you check the box for HTC Sense?

Hey,

I exactly did what you described, it worked for me (currently using Dutty's 1.5) but now I have a black square on the left side of the clock on the homescreen.

and more badly, the cookiemonster 20 icons on homescreen cab file does no longer work. all i have is a clock on my homescreen :/

how can i fix that:

Duttys Leo Sense 2.5 Multi-Lang

Based Rom 1.66 ( CE OS Build 5.2.21889.5.0.87 )

moreover i'd like the sliderbar to be transparent. so i thought i gonna import PNGs with only one color being transparent, converting them and putting them in a cab. but that doesnt work either.

any help ? :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
You need to also check mark the proper boxes in the configuration settings in HDwalls.

There are 5 boxes, check the 3 in this screenshot. (the one is for skinning taskbar obviously)

That should prevent the box and other issues.

Try again that way. :)

HDwalls hasn't worked to change the slider icon, for a while now on 2.5.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] joker.mn:
well it works. apart from the background of the taskbar and the softbar area (bottom. below slider). those are both still black. the altered PNGs were not included (although they were in the CAB).

:/

but it works well with the cookie monster 20 icon package.

FYI: i did not apply ANY cookiemonster patch currently. (not even the 1922 one). could that explain the error with task+softbar?

thanks in advance for your help!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
Yes, that would be the exact reason. :)

You can just install the patch now and your bars should show up!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] joker.mn:
doublepost. sry.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] joker.mn:
after applying the fix:

HQWallpaperPatch_v1.22_forManila2.5.19222xxx.cab

i have the square next to the clock bug.

cookies 20 icons are not working any longer.

but i have a task/softbar with the right image as background. :)

the background picture is not properly aligned (it does not fit with the image from the taskbar). looks vertically streched. horizontally the picture covers the whole screen.

:( too bad...

here is a pic

a screen on how it looks in the hdwalls software

2nd a screen on how it actually looks :/ (note the blurry pic in the middle, the square left of the clock and the misalignment on top)

and a screenshot of the lockscreen (how i want it to be!) < that one works nice.

here is the background.

if someone else wants to build a working cab : )
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] METALWORKS™:

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] kidwolf908:
I tried your cab and it worked, but it broke my Lock Device v1.6 cab.

When I locked the device via the backlight button, it would not wake up again until I soft reset the device.

Also, this HDBurberry cab will not completely uninstall no matter how many times I try.
