How Can I change the Color of the Comm Manager Screen

How Can I change the Color of the Comm Manager Screen. I don't like the default Green color and I try everything to change it but without succeed.
Thanks for your help

Wow... pointless feat.

also i would like to know it
i tryed using Resource Hacker
i opened the file CommManagerRes.dll
i exported all the bitmaps to my pc
i virated them to the blue color (see the attached file)
i imported all the new bitmap files to the dll, replacind the older one
i saved the dll into another file
So now i have the original.dll and the modified.dll
the problem is that when i copy the dll file to the device\window folder
and i restart the phone, the command manager don't open
if i replace the modified.dll with the original.dll, the command manger works correctly.
any suggestion how to have blue icon and background in command manager, instead of the green ones ?
thanks in advantage

Not sure if it will help or not but this is from my t-mobile dash. Its the commmanger.exe and dll. i have the blue one.

nice the bitmaps, but i have some problem with this versione.
In particular, when i go on comm mamager, i have the setting button....
before changing i had two menu, wlan setting, and blutooth seeting.
now i've only wlan settin, wich instead opening wlan, opens blutooth...
so, it's better to restore my file..
anyone can tell me how to solve my problem with replacing bitmaps via Resource Hacker ?
thanks

maybe (i read somewhere in thios forum) it's for the certified signin ???
wath can i do now.....
if someone can adjust the file for me, i attach them here ...
it' comm manager ITA
thanks

Hi,
I was wondering if there were any updates to this issue?
I too would like to have a different background in my comm manager after upgrading to wm6 (the green doesn't go with my theme )
TIA

Help locating a few .exe files in Ricky's excellent 6.1 ROM

First of all, thank you VERY much to everyone who has contributed to the 6.1 ROM including Rickwyatt, Kavana, NRGZ28, etc. I cannot believe how much better my Dash is with this ROM! I am using v15 of the ROM.
I have been trying to find the .exe files for a few applications in the ROM so I can link to them using oldSAP favorites to my CApps carousel. I have set Resco Explorer to view all files, including those in ROM.
Voice Notes
Resco Registry Editor
ActiveSync
I searched all through the \Windows directory and couldn't find them. I also searched everywhere else on the device to see if I could find them. They appear in the Start Menu and they work fine, I just can't find the .exe files.
Also, is it possible to change the icon that displays on the home screen for the "My Programs" carousel? All the other icons are white outlines until selected, but on mine the icon is full color.
Any help would be appreciated! Again, thanks for all the hard work on this ROM!

..
Browse to the start menu folder with your computer, and open the shortcuts with notepad.

Thanks for the suggestion!
I did that and I see something like this:
10#:MSSYNCAPP?:syncapp
I'm assuming that if I type in :MSSYNCAPP that oldSAP Favorites will launch the app (in this case ActiveSync).
Some of the other ones were more complex such as:
1#\windows\sktstart.exe #AUTO#?\Storage Card\Program Files\SKKV Software\SKTools Standard\sktools.exe,-222
Again, I'm hoping that if I input everything starting with \windows that oldSAP will launch it.
Thanks for your help!

this manila file is intended for the little notification about new sms or mail. is the green circle that you get when a new sms or mail is coming.
changing this manila file you can get a different color and a different aspect.

Thanks giangishanghai,
my question was , how can I use this file too.
It's not a cab , it's not exe....it's just a file and I don't know how to install it.
Can you explain me please.
Thanks
P.S.: How can I backup the original settings , so I can go back if I does't like it ?

Here is how:
1. Copy the manila file in question to your desktop (PC) or wherever.
2. Download Manila Editor over in the Diamond Forum (in "Themes, Software..." sub-forum).
3. Open Manila Editor and open up your manila file by clicking "Select Path."
4. Using manila Editor, export the image in the manila file as a PNG, or whatever format you like.
5. Use a program like Photoshop to change the color.
6. Using Manila Editor, replace the image in the manila file with the one you altered with Photoshop.
7. Backup your original manila file from your windows folder (i.e., copy it to your storage card or somewhere else).
8. Disable TFLO3D (setting-->personal-->today--> Items).
9. Copy your changed file into windows with total commander (or resco explorer).
10. Restart TFLO3D.
Hope this helps.

I've missed Manilla Editor software
Thank you very much sk806

[TUT] How to change the Internet Globe Icon

Hi all,
I have had a couple of questions on how to change the globe on the internet tab from the globe to a pic of your choosing.
I have attached the files you need. All you need to do is Create 2 png pictures that are 512x256 and name them the same as in the files.
Once you have done this copy them onto your device,turn off touchflo and drop them along with the mainla file into your windows directory using total commander (or similar) and restart touchflo and hey presto your very own internet icon.
Have fun

works great!!
I made a nice Opera logo, maybe someone likes to use it.
Can't find a good screen capture program, just try it.
You have to copy all three files to the windows directory using total commander or other.
EDIT: found screen capture program, so now included

very nice
Hope to see a few more of these on here. People have been looking but no one has replied.

Hi... I like your internet glob. Can you make it into a cab file? I am very bad at this so far so would be great.
Thanks in advance

Hi , sorry to trouble you but could you or anyone please upload the stock 'Internet tab Globe' icon for me ? My operator decided to use its own logo for the Launch Browser icon and it looks quite terrible
Thanks in advance

Unfortunately this does not work on my German O2 stock rom.
They probably use another manila file for selecting the image on the internet tab.
I have to investigate further...

Here try this Cab File.

I finally solved it, thanks to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2861249
I have to edit a file in \Application Data\Manila which holds the information about banner and operator links.
Thanks anyway for the information in this thread
BTW: You can add a property Text to the Banner node to display a heading under the banner icon

Many thanks to David. I've customised my Internet globe.
I 'emptied' the Youtube text as well as picture reference fields in your attached XML. So nothing shows. Hmm, now I am wondering how I can incorporate another program icon to be exact ...

remove the globe
Thanks for the tutorial, but to me the globe is useless, i would like to start at the tab with only my favorites and no globe at all; so is it possible to fully remove the globe?

I dont know. It might be possible but due to way TF3D uses the Mainla files you would have to modify it in such a way that it doesn't know there should be anything there and that it going waaay above my head.
It's not as simple as deleting the file you might actually have to change the more progamming but i'm sure someone could help

You just need to delete the "Banner" node (i.e. everything between and including "<Banner [...] />", without the quotes.).

Just played around and found I could remove youtube icon. All I did was to delete the everything within <OperatorLinks>.

Dear friend, after i have copied the 2 png pictures to the manila file, turn off and restart the TFL3D, the globe ico remain unchange. Would you give me more detail on how to fix it. By the way, there are two files named InternetPortal and InternetPortal-zh-CN, anything i need to do about that? thanks.

Would help if I could find the folder \Application Data\Manila\ , let alone the file InternetPortal-en-gb.xml. It is most vexing!
BTW
I am using Total Commander on an OrangeUK 1.14 ROM Touch HD
EDIT
====
Nevermind, I did a bit more forum searching and found the right file to edit.
It is 27c65cbd_manila in \windows\ (for me anyway)

ideally you need to use photoshop. This will allow you to delete the background so leaving it as it should be

all you need is manila editor (you can do a search for it) and then copy the *_manila files from your /windows folder on your device to your pc. Next start up the manila editor and point it to the folder you copied the *_manila files too. Now you can scroll through every image build into TF3D when you find th eone you want to change just export it as a jpg, png or whatever you like to work with. Change it to any color you like with you favorite editor (i think even paint brush will work for this task). Finally just go back to manila editor and press the replace button on the image you want to replace (the people frame in your case). You can now create a zip file of the image you replaced. Create the zip file and extract it and copy it back to the /windows folder on your device (overwriting the old one) Restart Tf3d and you will see your change
If anyone knows of a better tutotial for manila editor out there please respond

10x man!! I'll try
