Changing Clock on VERIZON HTC Touch Diamond

Hello! I need help with changing the clock on my HTC Touch Diamond (VERIZON).
Okay, guys... I am SO frustrated I could absolutely SCREAM.
I've had the phone for a week, and I've spent hours, literally, trying to change the CLOCK appearance. It is currently ANALOG and has an atrocious purple background that I HATE.
Here's the main screen, so you can see what I mean:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have installed some themes successfully, and everything changes but the clock! I can't get rid of that purple background, and can't change the style from Analog to FLIP, which is what I really want.
I have tried to install several clocks from the clock thread on this site, and followed the instructions to the letter - soft reset the phone and..... NOTHING. Still the same awful analog clock with the purple background.
I have also downloaded TF3D Config, hoping a new Theme will override the clock, but can't get any themes to appear in the drop down menu no matter what Path I choose (another massive source of frustration).
Sorry for the rant, but seriously, I'm about to throw this phone out the window. Part of the fun of having a phone like this is the customization features, and if I can't figure out how customize it, why bother?
I really hope someone can help with some detailed, step by step instructions or send me to a thread that has the answers. Believe me, I've literally spent hours searching this site and the rest of the web and can't find a specific answer. Maybe it's because Verizon's version hasn't been out for very long?
I'm definitely a newbie at this stuff, but I can read/follow instructions - so please, please help!!! (That's right - I'm begging! LOL...)
Sorry for the long post! Thanks so much for reading this and I hope to get some replies soon.

Did you ever get an answer for this, just got the touch diamond today and this is driving me nuts as well.
let me know
thanks

You have to install nissedilligaf's sprint2flipclock (search the forum) and don't forget to soft reset. That nasty ugly purple background will be removed after soft reset, then you can install any clock you want. Find any flip clock or analog and just copy it to your windows folder on your device. Don't forget to thank nisse for his work.

Problems/bugs

Well I'm also the happy owner of the TP2... But if have some issues/bugs that maybe some of you have a solution for.
When I restart my phone, sometimes manila doesn't start at all.
So I start it up manually, but then it seems that parts are not working. Like quantity notifications of the messages...
Also the device sometimes gives a message that it cannot connect to the gprs, while I have a network connection and other phones have no problem with the same provider. And then I notice that the H sign is very weird and there's no info about it in the manual.
Here you can see an image, the red arrow points to the weird symbol.

You can only modify the total sound volume and not ring or phone volume. That's not handy because my sms sound is too low.
Is there a tweak to change the soft touch buttons? Like Phone - Camera buttons to change to contact - sms or something else...
Greetzzzzz

pfffffffffffff
This is really ennoying... My battery was low and phone shutted down.
So I connection the power supply, started the phone and yeah AGAIN... stupid Manila doesn't start. No feature started.. I feel like throwing it away now.
Hope someone has a solution to it?

One issue solved...
Well I uninstalled SPB gprs monitor and now manila starts up fine.
I also set a delayed startup for S2U2 for about 20s, so that manila starts up first.

these have nothing to do with htc touch pro2 itself dude!
it's about the rom you installed in it,so pls return to your technician to get a good rom!
it's like you have super good pc,but the windows xp you installed is crap,then your pc will always get this problem and that......
FYI: rom means: OS(wm 6.5 for example)+Radio(GSM etc)+Extrom(touchflo 3d etc)

hello everyboby,
For the strange color of the "H" icon, it's mean you don't receive grps correctly in the place you are.Try to move to see a change.
For your problem of the TF3D's starting, i have the same problem when S2U2 was installed, see in the forum you can find a special version modified for TP2.
Hope, it can help you.
PS: excuses my english, i'm french
PS: nokiadashi, please change your font size and color. And try to answer with a different explication that's a problem with ROM like the differents reply that you post
bye to all

[ Idea ] TF3D Notes Page

One app I keep using a lot of the time is the notes application.
Just to quickly jot something down, or to look up something I wrote earlier.
It would be great if there were a new tab integrated into Touchflo (or Sense, whatever)
I know how to do a bit of programming of my own, but no idea how to create something which would add a new tab to another program such as TF3D.
But yeh, I'm just putting the idea out there.
Please comment if you like this idea.
I hope someone out there will find the time to attempt making this, as it would be a great addition for Touchflo.
Heres a little mockup I made:
(sorry for the poor graphics)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Select notes along the slider on the right.
To make a new note, slide to the top one (which is blank)
start drawing on it.
Press the tick button, bottom right to save
To delete, slide to the note you want to delete, then click the delete
button, bottom right.

Thanks Dude, This is totally awesome imho....
very nice idea..
I would also add the functionality of reminder...
Sometimes I need to remember something that Ill quickly note but then even forget to look at it...
so very good idea if reminder was added too...
Are there any DEVs feeling the same?

Thats a great idea.

I agree. That would be a nice thing to have

sorry to go off topic, but where did you get your tray skin for 6.5.1?

Thanks for those who've replied, I really hope a dev actually does something like this.
The skin is the one that came with the ROM im using.
Cant remember what the ROMs called though.

Won't be possible sorry.
As far as I understand it, the code for manilla isn't released by HTC, so attempting to add a tab would be impossible?

You sure its not possible?
A new tab has been made before you know :/
Check this out

If you could find a notes today plugin program you could use the manila today tab program you referenced.

That is not a "tab" persay. It displays the today screen and therefor you can show a today plugin, but not add any specific manilla features.

Help guys I really would like these two things if possible??

I am using build 28008.5.5.0 benko rom ultra lite
I'm wanting to have these two things added to my phone is this is possible?

As these are not in this rom
I really hope you can help

The first screenshot is a mock-up as far as I know...
There is a theory that it will soon support music play from your lockscreen.
But I could be wrong, if you give a link to that shadowline ROM I can do some research because I would like to have it too!
Cheers,
EC

i heard it was a real project and the was actually written but never implemented... hope they will cause that would be sweeeet
in the meantime you could use S2U2 coupled with S2P that will give you a very similar things more in a iPhone style though

Okay, and if there's anything I don't want on my phone, then it's iphone stuff.
No but those are all third party programs, it would begreat to have it implemented in WM.

I don't like the iPhone neither... still when something is good I don't care where it comes from
S2U2 provides many very good things (that iPhone don't have actually)
- SMS/MMS/EMAIL/MIST CALLS/TASK/APPOINTMENT/ALARM Display and dismiss without unlocking
- 1+ appointments display
- Time and real battery meter (always or when charging)
- weather forecast
- Fullscreen caller ID
- Slide to answer (or not)
- blank screen/lock on talk
- integration/actions on MP3 player S2P without unlock
- system/incall volume control
and that just the basic features...
It is honestly a great tool !!!
Otherwise regarding integrated in WM... I don't know what the MS devs are doing but they better get their fingers out of where they shouldn't be
People are still very cold about getting WM Phones... they even rather by a LG or a Sam-****-sung

Ill have a look and try that program but as some one lse said I don't want my diamond to be abit like the iphone thats why I got it because it#s nothing like it

[REQ] Sense To Do (tasks) list manager

Hy all.
I and probably meni other users are not happy abaut task manager build in Windows Mobile. It's way to hidden!
Task list shoud be visible from home screen. This is the only way I can see what I have to do in comming days.
Sou I made user interface for this app.
It looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If enyone has the time and knolage, this could be big thing

wow...amazing work....have u made it?

I just put some Sense graphic's together and this came out.
Now we need some developer's to make the hard part, and that is modifying the Sens files.
I'm hoping Co0kieMonster could taka a look at this.

BUMP....Great idea!!!

looks awesome. I wonder how much of this is covered by ptasks.
A manila tab would definetly be awesome but not neccessary for me

I tried ptasks... and gave up, it was too slow for regular uses..

...maybe you give "mvcal" a try (www.portablepim.de)
hence the website is in german, the software will be english after installation. If you prefer german, you can switch to it in options->languages)
or you download directly from here
It cannot only manage the appointment, it also handles the tasks in a fingerfriendly manner and combines it with appointments.

Very interesting, this is the function that lacks to sense. it would be nice to share it ou explain how to made it.
thanks

bump!!! I like this!!
Marty

Really interested too.

Would love to have something like this.

Its an amazin idea..it mus be not so hard for the great Developers here on Xda..
Plz sum1 mak this possible..after making the Call History tabs this one is next!

bump bump bump

Look at here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=659089
Not exactly a new tab, however for sure tasks integrated in Sense

yep, i'm using AHT already, it works..
the thread starters "design" just have more eyecandy... i also looking forward to the day, when a friendly dev will make one

Hi digibum,
ask meltwater. He has done FB-Tab and is busy with RSS-Tab. I think he
has found a very good mechanisme to do things like that....

Yep this is just the kind of thing which could be done using the same methods I've used. The whole concept is to remove the difficult sense side and provide a simple way to populate a tab.
If a developer is interested in doing the TodoUtil program (.net side) I can probably provide a shell of the Sense RSSTab which by design is supposed to be generic enough to be populated with any kind of list data.
There are still features I've not yet built into the Sense tab (long press selection, left-hand icon selection, notifications), but as I develop the RSSTab the idea is I can expand what it is able to do.
Even as it currently stands, I don't think there is much that would need to change to get a simple To-Do tab.
