Hi,
I have a O2 branded TouchFlo3D, so it is blue and white. The background image an all manila pages is fading from blue to white.
I have replaced all Luaq- and QTC-Files in my windows-directory with those from the original htc theme. That works fine, but i still got the old O2 background image. Which file do I have to replace???
Please help.
Sers,
maybe the luaq and qtc files are the animation behavor itself and the gles files are the picture informations?
Please report if it will work!
regards

Can u make screenshot for it.Maybe with Screenshot i can help a bit
Yeah, post a screeny so we can see...I'm using Dutty's Full, with an O2 manilla cab installed. I didn't get the .tsk or wallpaper in it, so not sure what you mean. On the pages after home, the screen is gradient, but with bars. If you don't mind, while helping can you tell me which file is the background images aside the home page?

Did you mean the wallpaper on Manila backgorund when you selected one from the setting page?
If that's the case you should see:
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeBackgroundPath
Unless it's not what on your mind.
Hi!
I think, we talking about that picture, what's in the background on all of the other Manila pages. Black with gray rectangles.
Is that changeable manually like the home's one?
What file is it? Anyone can help me?

PS: Sorry for my poor english!
Hi, sushilange,
could u plz upload the o2 manila files so I could compare the files with the stock ones?
I really think it should be the gles files which effect the background....
best regards
Yes I mean the background image, which is on all manila pages.
I figured out, just replacing all QTC-Files doesn't work, so i had to replace all manila-files. I think you also need a LuaQ-File for displaying the background?
I have found it.

I've backed up this key and HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\CachedBackgroundPath but when i restore these keys my home screen background remains black.. is there some other file where the background image is copied after you change the wallpaper for the home screen?

Avers, mind sharing the code?
Does anyone know where to set the color / background of the white music library menu ?
I've managed to isolate most of the visual manila properties but cannot seem to locate the file that fills the background.
By now my hunch is that it's an inverted version of the default tab backgrounds.
I've searched for hours all over the place but i couldn't find an answer for this part of the background.
Can somebody help me out?
thanks
here you are
edit: sorry i didn't read the question correctly it is manila file 0d1412f9_manila
happy skinning!

That's what I thought at first as well.
But somehow if I replace the file with a grey one it doesn't change the background
I have attached the grey filled manila file i copied to my device.
I used the mode9editor which does a great job with the normal background 4 all tabs without any hex editing.
do you have an idea what is going wrong?
hmmm... I am am clueless..... sorry... maybe it is unetitable....

WHen I use the background for all tabs the '3d' grid part of the music library does disappear but the background stays white
maybe that is a preset..... yes it could be....
i think htc has coded it to have a white background and invert the tiles.....
that is the only way i can think of...

I have to confess.. I haven't checked the lua scripts yet.
But did dissect all mode9 files in search for this element..
I think i did it!!!!!!
ok replace this .png file with
0d1412f9_manila
it should work....
i can't believe it
lol i think if found it out
try it and then tell me results
I tried that one.. to make the side (where yours is black) grey and also the whole pic black..
I tried yours just now.. but doesn't work either
do you use the touchHD or the X1?
can you zip your manila file that worked to just be 100% sure I don't mess up while creating the manila file.
Touch HD
hmm.... i was sure that was it.... hmm.... i'll look some more....
now i am depressed :-(
don't be depressed
can I have your 0d1412f9_manila file to double check
I don't have the file as i am at work on a mac.
you will have to replace it in manila editor or Mode9 editor

I don't think there's a way to display the homescreen paper on your apps page, start menu, messages, settings, etc, etc. There is a way to change the background picks for them though. You have to replace some files on the windows directory. There are also some reg. mods that you can do also. Here's the thread.

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.
