I extracted all of the files to my windows folder but nothing happens...can you help me ??? what am I supposed to do ??? I've never done this before. Also, would you mind telling me how to get my wallpaper on all backgrounds like yours. If this helps I'm using CDMA Sprint TP.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] lloway21:
Thank you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
Here's some advice. If you seriously want to learn about customizing your device, you'll need to search, read, and experiment. Otherwise, you should stick with using cab files provided by various users that are proven to work.

With that said, check out the Blackstone forums. There are many tools there that will put you on the right track.

Very nice package thanks !

Looks great on mine ! (Just one like remark: some icons could be sharper (calendar for isntance)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Alcibiade:
ohyeahar, could you publish directly a CFC version ?

So we just need to applyu the CFC patch to our Manilla3D and can use directly your icons without going through the process of copressing them :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Alcibiade:
What about making them also a little bit bigger ? (Like 20 to 30% bigger)

With the transparency it will not "eat" too much space and will look even better :)

Or could also imagine have them rrow a bit "A la" Mac OS task bar when we click on them (Not so easy though) or highlighted differently (Just thinking)

Anyway, I love them :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
Will be uploading a new release soon. Probably in a day or so. Hang on!

Will do so for the new release. But it's probably not practical for me to compress all the manila files. So, most likely I will just compress the files that I modded for my theme.

1. I don't dictate the size of the images. Manila does. I generally make the images as large as possible already. If the original manila files is an image that is 128x128 pixels, it won't work if I put in a 256x256 pixel image.

2. I think I understand what you mean. You want something like Mac's dock where the icons magnify when you hover over them? I'm not sure that's possible. If it is, certainly someone would have made something like that already. (I haven't seen any...)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Alcibiade:
Thanks lot for answering so quick and in details

I am not sure how Manialla works (I used to program but it was on PCs... and it was a while ago). However it is quite likely it allows you to have a different picture depending on wether the tab is active or not (Best example is the tab behind illuminates a bit when it's active). And consequently change the main pictue to a bigger one (And potentially make the neighboors smaller)

Just an idea like that...

If you exclude the "dynamic" part of my suggestion I bet the size of the tabs is configurable somewhere (The contrary would be surprising) in which case w should be able to make slightly bigger icons (Again not twice bigger but 20 to 30% would be very nice !!)

Anyway, I love your icons :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
I understand what you're trying to get at. But I'm afraid it's not very easy to achieve.

I don't even know where to begin to explain why it's not practical. Let's take the Home tab for example. There are 3 images that relate to the Home tab.

1. Large icon that's shown when the Home tab is touched and held.

2. Small icon above the slider. This is shown if the Home tab is the active tab.

3. Small icon below the slider. This is shown if Home tab is not the active tab.

In my theme, the slider is transparent. Essentially, this means that (2) is just a transparent image. If not, you will see both (2) and (3) which would be ugly.

What you want is to have (2) larger than (3). This can't be done with a transparent slider. Don't know if you noticed, but the default TF3D theme does what you want.

I'm all in favor of larger icons. If anyone knows how to get manila to use larger icons, let me know.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Alcibiade:
Yep I noticed the initial theme roughly corresponds with what I describe ;)

Was just thnking we could reproduce and amplify ;)

FAQ

Q. Why isn't the taskbar (bar on top) modded like yours?

A. This cab does not include the taskbar, and 1% battery driver. You may find them at the links provided. Credit to Chainfire, InsecureSpike

Q. Why isn't my wallpaper modded?

A. My theme doesn't include the wallpaper.

Q. Why does my wallpaper only appear on the Home tab?

A. My theme doesn't include the wallpaper-on-all-tabs functionality. Suggest you try this tool.

Q. Can you mod this clock to match your theme?

A. If you don't like the transparent clock but still want my little phone, calendar, and alarm icons, see here. CFC Compressed version here.

I will not be editing other clocks. You have the following choices:

-use my transparent clock or default clock

-install the clock of your choice over my theme but lose my tiny alarm, phone, and calendar icons on the home tab

-edit the clock of your choice to include my tiny alarm, phone, and calendar icons. The attachment in this post will get you started.

Q. Can you send me files that corresponds to particular parts of the theme?

A. No, you can extract them yourself if you really want them.

Q. Can you mod the other comm manager icons?

A. I would, but I use the original comm manager on my TP2. I don't know/have the image files for the other buttons.

Q. All the icons turned into white spots! What happened?

A. You used the CFC-Compressed version without reading. Not for noobs. Told you so.

Simply beautiful
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Maric:
Well I just finished taking a human factors class in college. I think what I learned from the class is in order to make the your icons system as possible you need to differentiate with color, shape, and words. Your icon selections are nice but I think you need to change the colors on all the sliding icons so the none of them have a similar color. Like home, people, internet, photos and videos all have the same blue color shading which make it difficult to quickly detect which program you are opening.

If you notice while you slide the tabs the icons that jump out quickly and one is able to make out are the stocks, weather, and programs because they are easy to pick up while glancing and skimming through the icon tab.

I think the most vital and most used function icons should have distinct colors so that when your scanning for this most often used icon tabs they are easily detectable.

I am assuming for most of us the most frequently used icons would probably sms, people, email would most likely be the most used icons. So this should all have very contrasting colors with their icon. So the whole blue theme is hard to pick up when using the phone in the car or moving around.

Another issue is the icon selection. Many of the icons are bad selections in touchflo because those same icons that we have see before mean something differently on other systems. An example would be the contact icon is very similar to msn messenger icon which I is sometimes hard to distinguish because I confuse it for SMS. Another bad icon is the internet world icon because that can be very confusing for the weather icon.

So probably the vital most commonly used icons such sms, email, and contacts should get a clear color coded themed icon. So sms should be simple with a green color and maybe sms acronym in the icon. Email shlould maybe have yellow shading but very clear icon that it's email. Also yellow is so closely resembles outlook which we are so use to. Finally contacts should be an icon just like outlook since again I am sure most of us are syncing it with it. So this is probably easiest to pick up and detect since we seen this icon so often.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
Well, seems your philosophy is the opposite of what I was thinking when I was making this theme. I wanted icons that were similar in colors so that everything looked consistent as you go from tab-to-tab and screen-to-screen.

I'm sorry, my theme is not to your taste. Hope you find one that's suitable. Or better yet, make one and share with the community!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] xkovi:
Found strange bug - I'm using tha last TESS ROM v2.2.1, applied this skin...everything is ok except when I slide at the bottom with tf3d slider over the "photo icon", this icon "moves" for a while with this slider...all other icons are ok...I mean when I slide over them, only transparent slider can be seen and icons like home, sms or calendar etc. are static....

Excuse my English, maybe it sounds little bit crazy but hope you know what I mean :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
Do you still get this after soft-reset?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] xkovi:
Yes, this bug is still present, no matter how many SR i make....unfortunately I can't confirm whether this bug was present also in previous TESS rom since I had used older version of your skin....

EDIT: u can see the screen - captured by shake and save.... photo icon is "doubled" when I slide both to the left and to the right over it...as you can see...other icons are ok as usual....

ohyeahar,

I have one of spike's taskbars, but would like a different battery icon (one that looks like a battery and has color). I've seen one that actually goes from green (full), to yellow (half), to red (almost empty).

What is the battery icon file name in the Windows directory and is it possible to get a cab to change the icon to the colored one(s)?

TIA,

Chris
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:

Sorry, not my area of expertise...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] xkovi:
Ok, I used v1.5 (no top and bottom)...unfortunately today I flashed the last version of TESS, which is back with manilla 2.0 instead of 2.1 and this "photo" bug is not present here....so probably this bug is caused by some incompatibility with manilla 2.1....sorry I can't test your fix...it's a few minutes I reflashed my topaz :D Anyway thx for your support!

date problems on dutch ROM

Thank very much for this perfect theme.

got 1 question.

after installing the date under the clock is miss formated

it now says 29-mmm-2009

it looks like us style or something

is there a mod possible

reinstalling didnt help

soft-reset did nothing

countrysettings are correct
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
The large flip clock is controlled by the theme. Should be black digits on clear panels (as in my screenshots). If you flick up, the small clock will still be white digits.

That's odd. My theme has nothing to do with the date format. You can edit the date format to your liking with Advanced Config tool. Search for it.

Hi,

I am not sure if this issue is a result of this installation. But the 'Vibrate during appointments' doesnt work anymore. Any ideas? How can I bring it back.

When I set to the above option, during the meeting time, it still remains in normal mode and can hear the incoming call ringtones and alert sounds.

I cannot seem to make the top curtain change to the icons shown in the 1st post screen shots...any suggestions?:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
Are you using a cooked ROM? I tried my theme package on the Energy Genesis ROM and the top curtain remained.

There's too many Manila versions these days to have a theme be fully compatible with each. After HTC releases the next official ROM update (Oct 6th?), I'll update my theme package to be compatible with whatever Manila version that ROM has.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Tabish:
I'll be honest, I am an ignorant when it comes to this ad as you probably noticed that was my very first post I have made on the website.

I am using default ROM which came with my Touchpro2 by Orange.

I guess I will wait for the updated version.

Cheers for the quick response and help.

Suggestions

Theme is fantastic!

A lot of the sub-pages on tabs have been done, which many theme programmers seem to leave out - esp like the media player sub icons.

A few suggestions for your next release... well, you did ask. ;)

TF3D People tab: sub-tab Phone, Send SMS/MMS and Send Email icons are still B&W.

And where did you get your topbar icons from?

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] californiarailroader:
I notice sometimes that a ? will appear on the bar, especially if I have a lot of emails unread, any idea what it means? Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
If you are aware of how manila files are named, then you'll realize that it'll be frustrating for both me to come up with such a list and frustrating for you to find the files I listed. I suggest you to extract all the files and just use CFC-GUI to easily recognize which is which.

Thanks for your compliments. Your suggestion has actually been made before. I won't be modding those icons because of the simple fact that we won't be using TF3D 2.1 for much longer. When HTC release their WinMo 6.5 ROM for TP2 (on Oct 6?), it will most likely come with TF3D 2.5. This version of TF3D won't have those icons on the contacts tab.

Check my faq (link in 1st post) regarding the taskbar.

Just tap the taskbar to bring up the notifications screen. The icons are explained there. If you're using Spike's taskbar, the "?" means you've got missed calls.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] californiarailroader:
I have checked for that when I got the question mark, but I didn't have any missed calls. Could it just be a fluke?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
I've not encountered your situation. Do you only get the mystery notification icon if you use Spike's taskbar? If so, then you should ask Spike at his thread.

If not, then it's probably something with the ROM you're using.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] californiarailroader:
Yeah, it only seems to have started when I installed his taskbar, which was almost immediately after I installed your TF3D color program. I'll check with him and see if he has some ideas, thanks ohyeahar!

How to actually get the TF3D programs tab

Found the taskbar set... thanks. :D I used m6silver's coloured set from another thread after all, but spike's are very good too.

Anyway, I've seen lots of threads on here about closing TF3D before adding things or restarting programmes. One question... just how do you stop it? I've looked in EVERY option & setting possible, including the obvious one of Task Manager... although nothing shows in that anyway.

Is that why Advanced Config doesn't work when you click the TF3D in More options... becuase it's still running and therefore can't be altered whilst running?

Also, how do you get the Programs Tab for TF3D on an HTC-TP2.. is it a registry hack or what? Can't find anything sensible that doesn't involve applying a new theme as I want to keep your set. Everytime I load something that's supposed to add the Program Tab it screws up everything else, like icons sets, clock, etc.

Baffled :confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
To disable TF3D: go to Settings tab, tap All Settings, go to Personal tab, tap Today, go to Items tab, uncheck TF3D, tap OK.

In Advanced Config, the TF3D options screen allows you to enable/disable and rearrange tabs. This doesn't work because this was made for the TF3D version found on the orignal Diamond and Touch Pro. However, the date format settings still work.

I don't know about adding the Programs tab. Personally, I'm quite happy with using the HTC Start Menu. But I'm sure it's possible. I've seen it on cooked ROMs.
