I'm thinking of installing Artemis 2.9b SWE ROM and wonder if the tweaks and mods are working with WM 6.5.X and manilla 1922?

I belive that the registry tweaks will work but how about the cabs?

The things i would like to use from this thread is "reset and Wi-Fi cab", "flip clock OF cab".

Another question some one might be able to answer is what's most likely about PHM RegEdit and a "Lock screen slider mod" that i use to my original 1.66 ROM, will they work on WM 6.5.X and manilla 1922?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] foney:
seems smaberg is choosing to ignore anyone with issues with this. Should be pulled off the first post if it isnt working, or at least reply to anyone who has a question about it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] end-er:
Hi Smaberg,

I used around 5 of the cabs for official ROM 1.43 and all worked perfectly. But now I have installed offcial ROM 1.66 and Touch_X_Homescreen_Flip_clock_OFF.cab is not working. Actually the homescreen clock displays only 0:00 because of it... I have tested the issue twice. Maybe you can do something about it. Cheers!

What ROM do you have?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] johnkst:
Hi Smaberg.

First of all... Thank you very much for your excellent 'Touch X transparancy cabs'. I have used several of them on my HD2 and am very pleased with the overall results.

Secondly (of course!), I have a question...

On the Internet tab, I used your 'Touch X transparent search in internet tab.cab' to remove the 'curtain' above and behind the Google Search entry box. But then I decided I would like to make the Google Search entry box itself transparent (or possibly semi-transparent).

I presume you also looked into this at the time. Do you know if it is possible to change this (and if so, which manila file needs to be changed) or is it, as I now suspect, part of the embedded Google Search function and therefore, unchangeable?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] smaberg:
not sure but try this cab for 50% opaque, and by the way its this file 6a0c23d6_manila. please report if it worked.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] galthop:
I am using Touch X BG all tabs 20 quicklinks.cab with Touch X transparent quicklinks when asign app.cab and they both work except that the last four links on the bottom row can not be removed. I assigned 4 programs to them which worked. Now I can not take the programs off or change them to something else.

I have manilla version 2.5.19211619.0
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jcc332006:
using new manilla 2011 version build 24001 and noticed remove bottom curtain cab no longer works on new builds. does anyone have a cab that will remove bottom curtain completely or make completely transparent without outline beneath icons. Thanks In Advance.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] johnkst:
Thanks for that, Smaberg.

You are right. This is the manila file responsible for the background around the 'Google Search' input box.

Unfortunately, I was also correct when I suggested that the box itself might be part of the embedded 'Google Search' function.

I tried both your 50% opaque cab and one I made myself with 100% transparency and just the frame. Neither of them looks to good! See attached screenshots. The 3rd screenshot shows just the result of your original cab to remove the 'curtain above and behind the Search box. I think I'll stick with that...

Thanks for your help and thanks again for all the great transparency cabs.

Have a beer on me!

Hi Smaberg

After installing the cabs I mentionned in earlier post (including 20 icons on Home page and smaller icons on Start page), I changed my wallpaper (Home Wallpaper, Weather).

It worked on almost all screens but I still have the old wallpaper in 2 places:

- Start page

- when it restarts from soft reset (power on/off) whilst starting Sense.

I tried removing the above two apps and then changing wallpaper and reinstalling but still the wrong wall paper on those screens.

How do I change?

thanks

Fiona

UPDATE - I found it by playing more! Seems those two screens use the 'Lock screen wallpaper' in Setting, personalize.

I'd love it if you could turn the clock and the unlock slider somewhat transparent. They look somewhat plain as-is.

Isn't this implemented by default?

If you longpress the endkey, you'll get the HTC action screen with "power off", "data disconnect", "lock screen" and "ringer".

If you press "ringer" it will switch to "vibrate" and vice versa...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] qllkevuoi:
Hi,

I think this is the right place to do my suggestion for some mods and tweaks for the standard manila-sense...if not, beg your pardon

I think it would be great if we could have the possibility to change the following behaviours of the default manila-sense:

1) change the default navigation program integrated with footprints, such as tomtom or igo8 and so on, with a full integration with footprints (not only the start of the alternative navigation program, but also the right planned route, related to the choosen footprint...I hope you understand what I mean, sorry for my english)

2) change the default forecast source, 'cause not all of us live in usa and so on... and the "accuracy of accuweather" is very approximative, for example, in italy and other european countries. So I think all italians with a HD2 want ilmeteo.it source, instead of accuweather; swedish people wants another one and so on..

3) change HTC Messages in order to visualize graphical smiles...it's ridicolous that a device like this (so much cool, performant...and so much expensive!) hasn't the possibility to do this: with HTC Messages enabled, you can't use applications like smileysms, VITO SMSChat and so on (all applications that can visualize graphical emoticons), 'cause they have effect only on the default windows mobile sms application (tmail.exe)...but they don't work well with manila-sense and don't integrate with HTC Messages

Just suggestions...if possible it would be great

Hi guys, I've installed some cabs, and they all work great, but now my background is gone.... the picture that you see when you're in the home screen, not to be confused with any other 'background' process, whatsoever ;)

strange; the moving backgrounds do work, but the regular pictures, don't....

is there a cab that gives me that picture, all the time?

also, I see some guys having 5 shortcuts, above that scrolling bar that goes to other tabs. how can i get 5? I was only able to get 4...

ps: whilst I'm at it: I once saw a cab to get a 5 column screen in the 'start' screen. I saw, here, the 4-column version, but, again, where can one find the 5 colum-version??

Transparent Quicklinks and icon sets...

Hi Smaberg.

Just thought I would point out, as you have a link to dZenkinZ' very nice icons in your first post, you might also like to add a link to Jaguaralani's equally stunning 'Glass Ball' icons as they too look particularly good when used with some of your Transparency cabs.

Here is the link to the thread...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ASM3:
Please excuse my ignorance on such matters, but I've been downloading several cabs throughout the HD2 threads to make things transparent, adding new taskbar icons, HDWall, etc. I'm doing all of this in anticipation for the T-mobile USA release. Does anyone know if the tweaks on this site will work for the T-mobile USA HD2? I'd really like to customize my future HD2 with the awesome transparency cabs, taskbar icons, wallpapers, etc. I figured out how to use HDWall and have already made several wallpapers using that software. I've noticed that certain tweaks/cabs are only compatible with certain sense and manila roms. How would one find out which version of manila the stock rom has? I know that the T-mobile USA HD2 will have sense 2.5 like the european version, but as for manila I don't know.

Again, I'm not very tech savvy when it comes to customizing cell phones. I joined this site to learn more about doing things like this, so sorry if I'm insulting anyone with this "noob" question. Thanks for any help!

I'd also like to know what are the best cabs to use to make things transparent (for example, clock, calendar, slider bar, top and bottom curtains, quick links, contacts, etc.) and which cabs work well together (there are many cabs from different developers)? I've noticed that some people are having troubles with installing multiple cabs to customize their HD2. Thanks!

Amazing cab files here, thanks for the hard work thats gone in to them.

Quick question though....

I have just tried the 20 links for the home page (not added any themes etc at the moment, hd2 fresh out the box on Saturday) and noticed that the top of the next page of quicklinks shows underneath the quick switch type icons (home, ppl, sms, email etc..)

Is there anyway to avoid this happening? I would really like to have the 20 quick links on the home-screen but it really clashes with the standard switch bar thing (sorry don't know its official title).

Many thanks in advance, maybe i missed another cab that would increase transparency to counter this.

Also, got to say, the start menu 4 in a row is a god send, looks so much better now!

I hope these questions were not answered before, if so I apologize for any double posts but I did not find anything using the search function.

I installed Touch X weather transparent bottom.cab and the transparent slider.cab, now I notice a couple of irregularities.

When I am in the weather menu and select settings, the 3 elements are hidden by a horizontal bar which hides all the options to select.

Is there a way to straigthen that out?

Second, when I am displaying all contacts the slider is transparent but the sliding background is white with grey symbols > All > Favourites > Groups etc...

Is there a way to change the background color so that only the symbols are seen?

Any suggestions are very welcome.

high bluetooth bitrate

these are all really cool tweaks! i mean better install a few light cabs than a whole tweak prog me thinks.

i have 2 requests, let me start with the easy one.

simply set the bluetooth bitpool to highest setting, no need for customization, just a cab that does just that.

this is a more complicated, but i think a really cool one.

i think it really sucks that when the screen is off, the only music control that works is volume. if u want to pause, play or skip tracks u have to press the power button, slide to unlock, (if ur not on music tab u have to navigate to it) THEN press the desired button. too many steps if u ask me.

what i want is a tweak that (only when the screen is off) disables the screen turn on function of the home button and start menu (of course keeping the function for the other buttons) and assigning play/pause to to the start menu key and a walkman like function to the home key. meaning when u press it while shaking the phone forward u skip a track forward and when u shake backwards u skip back (or if more than 3 seconds of the track pass to restart the track).

i know its too much to ask but i think something like this will make the hd2 a serious music device (especially when u plug in kickass ear/head phones that dont have controls on them).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Mr_President:
Haha yeah I know. And that's what I thought too, that they were taken from that thread I mean ;). Aye I backup regulary. Whenever I have tried reg changes long enuff and feel that they are safe, I do a new backup :)

This is my first foray into this arena.

DON'T unrar the .cab files, they are designed to be used directly on your Phone.
