Hello
I'm thinking about it from a long time
It can be possible to do something for changing the HTC logo movie at startup? (That before the splash WM screen)
So we can put inside a small movies as our choice at see them when we torun on the HD
Is that possible or just a dream?
Thank you for answers

you need the HTC Home customiser which connects to internet and lets you customize the plugin background / icons / clock graphics
I think he means the images in /Windows which skin the plugin, so all he would to apply it is copy the images and replace them i the winodws folder.
i downloaded the pictures from the touch 3.01 rom but there's a sharing violation when you try to copy/overwrite/delete the new pictures in the windows dir....
how do you solve that ?
here is what i did: i've installed HHC (htc home customizer) then i set clock appearance (i put the original clock) and after everything i wanted to set i simply uninstalled HHC (because of space and speed)...all settings remain because HHC replaces old files.so you get free space and performances as before but with much prettier clock
cheers

or he could just use the plugin to get the images himself instead of waiting for someone to upload them
It's call "HTC Home Plugin". If it has 6 tabs, it's extract from Kaiser phone. Sometime call "HTC Kaiser 6 button Home Plugin"
To install sometime hard sometime easy. Depend on the released.

Bt the way, I don't like it because it waste the space too much.
If you want a better implyment and no faulty. Try the software name "MobilityFlow Touch Commander".
still did't understand me,i have the plugin already,but the skin(theme) is the original one,i don't like it,i like the one in touch4.01,so i want the image files in touch 4.01 to replace the old skin
ok easy as:
1- download and install home customiser
2- use home customiser to automatically download and install the theme
job done.
DOWNLOAD HTC HOME CUSTOMIZER HHCv08b (not Lite)OR ANY OTHER VERSION AND READ #9 AGAIN........the clock is really ugly
Thank You All ,problem Solved
Hey
wanted to know if the WM6.5 allows you to use full res and quality wallpaper?
not like on the regular HD wallpaper that shows only 512X512...
tnx =]
WM 6.5 allows you to use full screen images and they are crystal clear.

It's not WinMo that's causing the problem with Touch HD background wallpapers, it's Touch Flo 3D.
So, if you would disable TF3D you could probably get nice quality with WinMo 6.1.
I have been digging around this issue and I do have a solution to get full resolution wallpapers with TF3D. Unfortunately, this process now requires a lot of messing around with Manila files, so it might not be for everyone. But I'm thinking about publishing my custom Manila wallpaper files, which basically require simply copy+paste into Windows directory and then restarting TF3D.

That would be great.
I hate how the quality is degraded once you set the Wallpaper.
There is so much difference in quality when viewing a picture in "albums" as opposed to the home screen wallpaper.
I wonder why TF3D lowers the resolution on the home screen.
Please publish a solution. thanks

I actually started a thread in General > Dev and Hacking about this very issue. It didn't get a lot of attention from people with Touch HD's, but none the less, I managed to get down to the bottom of the mysterious TF3D behavior and I can see that the info from that thread got to the people working on visual enhancements for Touch HD.
Basically, it's insanely stupid solution some lazy HTC programmer implemented.
Imagine that TF3D can display images that have maximum size of 512x512. Now imagine you have screen size that's 480x696 pixels (this is how big the wallpapers are). See the problem? The maximum image you can use is 184 pixels short to cover the whole screen.
And then you get a genius idea to use two 512x512 images to cover the screen area and allow full resolution wallpapers to be used. So you take the default HTC wallpaper, split it in two parts, align them perfectly on the screen so it looks as if they're one image - and problem solved!
Right?
Well, not quite. Yes, it will work for default background image, but what about custom wallpapers? Well, they were too lazy to make an automatized script that would split the images in two and align them on the screen.
Instead, they opt for a more convenient solution in form of taking custom wallpapers, shrinking them down into a single 512x512 box and then stretching this downsampled image back to 480x696 area.
And that's whats causing all these problems.
If you want a temporary solution, create 512x512 image - I bet it will look sharper then your 480x800 image.
A true solution is to cheat TF3D and import manually FOUR separate images that together form portrait and landscape wallpapers.
This can be done, and I will explain it in a separate post here when I get some free time. At the moment I'm too busy with FingerKeyboard
Wow, Rozenthal! That would be very interesting! It´s almost a dream I have: to see a quite sharp image on my TF3D Home screen.
A lot of people would be very glad with you if you teach us how to do this.
Thanks a lot in advance
It's not a dream I have it on my screen now...
The problem is in the fact that changing skins cannot be done through Settings tab. It requires editing the appropriate Manila files by using a Manila graphic editor on your PC. Also, this is something that will require at least moderate knowledge of some good graphic editing software (read: Photoshop), because you need to manually prepare split png files for portrait and landscape.
Then you take these files, load them into Manila files, compress them into a special TF3D graphic format, copy them to Windows directory overwriting the old files, turn off TF3D and then pick "Use default wallpaper" in your Settings / Wallpaper tab.
So, it's major pain in the a$$, and it's not something you would be doing on the road, or every day. But, as I said - it CAN be done.
The way I see it, we could probably get some users here to team up, learn the procedure and then simply offer zip-ed Manila files that other people can download and copy into Windows folder. That part is easy, it can be done by anyone. Preparing the wallpapers, however, isn't that simple.
Anyway, I will try to make a tutorial on how to do all this tomorrow.
In the mean time, you can check the thread I mentioned earlier. Altough, be warned that some of the final conclusion posts from that thread were lost during last sunday hack attack on XDA.
Hi,
does anyone know the location and name of the graphic used for the lock screen background. The percentage of iphone users is very high in the design office and I'm the only wm user.
I have a lovely anti apple graphic (umbunto supplied) and would like it as a screen saver but as i cant fond a way to do that the lock screen would be the next best thing.
Cheers.
Arron
Hi,
which lockscreen do you mean?
WM6.5 Lockscreen?
Or any other Programm like S2U2?
WM 6.5 uses the windows background screens as background can change them by overwriting:
\windows\stwater_480_800.jpg (for Portrait)
\windows\stwater_800_480.jpg (for Landscape)
(perhaps need to restart after)
S2U2 (which you shouldn't use as antiapple user ;-) )
-> can find in S2U2 Settings
greets
Using std UK rom.
The screen I refer to is the one that you use to unlock the device. Not the default background.
I cant upload pics from work but the screen is graduated light gray to white (at the bottom) with an unlock button middle right, and the text To unlock the device, tap "unlock"
Cheers
Arron
You mean the unlock screen.I'm trying to find the file too.I like to change it.Anyone knows where the image file is located in wm6.1?
Long time since I flashed away from 6.1, but I believe you can change the wallpaper (for 6.1, the unlock screen but not TF3D) by going to settings>Today and ticking the box next to 'Use this picture as the background' and browsing to your pic.

Thanks for the reply.Unfortunately that way you can change the today wallpaper but not the unlock screen.
Thats the screen
Anyone know the names of the <branded logo> and the Windows mobile 6.1 startup screen when you first start the TP2, i'm thinking i'd like to change those.

I finally made my own Boot animation.
The original idea was made by others (BIOS boot up) I never did figure out where I got my first one (the Galaxy Nexus one)
I typed in every single letter in every single image of this boot anim except the grey letters at the bottom I added Volume Down and left it as it was.
I have an avatar live wallpaper. I got ahold of the author and he told me how to get the images out of it. I used those for the second portion.
I found some zebra wallpaper and recolored and scaled it for the background.
DEEP respect to people who make these things. its an insane amount of work having to do each and every frame individually. I think I have 9-10 hours into this total ! not counting photoshop research to make life easier with some semi automation with recorded shortcuts. and I HAD A TEMPLATE to work from !!
took me forever to figure out how to automate a copy paste to overlay the stripes under the text without it MOVING the "pasted" content (centering) during the paste operation (that is why each frame has that white square at the bottom
I am thinking of making another with an android icon instead of the avatar movie sequence where I "avatarize" the android robot
maybe
its 16mb so I am hosting it and linking here. does anyone know how to reduce png image size without killing quality?
Enjoy let me know what you think.
I am also attaching my SII Bios one with no avatar theming. the second half the android matrix thing I did not make I left that in from the template I used to make this one (the galaxy nexus bios boot anim) that is not my work.
the first half is all mine.
Here is the Avatarized one
http://www.mylittlemouse.com/other/bootanimation(Avatar).zip
Here is a Video of it booting up. The sound file is a Mixture and Edit of the Old School computer disk spin up I found on a youtube video from here on the forums (on another SII bios anim) that I clipped parts out of and merged with the windows boot sound.

if anyone knows who made that original (original to me at least) Google Nexus Bios boot anime let me know so I can credit them as the source for the idea for this.
