Background for all tabs on windows mobile 6.5 (miri) - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Hi ive flashed my rom back 2 miri 6.5 rom where can i find a .cab for chage the background 4 all tabs
cheers callum

search for a program called HD Wall... it's menu driven and allows you to create a cab file to install a background that appears on all tabs. i've used it on NRG and miri's ROMs and its worked without issue.

Thanks for your replay

Depending on what version of Miri's ROM you are using will determine what version TF3D you have. This is important for using HDWall as one version requires compression and one doesn't.
Check your TF3D version in the settings tab. If it's 2.1.xxxx.x then you need to uncheck 'use compression' in HDWall before creating a background.
Alternatively, use one of the BG4all homescreen layouts in Maxycy's MaxTTM application to set a background for all tabs.

thanks for adding/clarifying an important requirement that i excluded in my response. using/not using compression will determine if your backgound will work. is there any way (other than trial and error) to know which versions of manila use/do not use compression? thanks.

Customized Programs Tab??

When using my Touch Cruise with Manila 2D, I was able to change the number of rows and columns for the Launcher Tab with M2DC, but now I was unable to find the solution to modify Touch HD's Program Tab, and apparently the options is not available to Advanced Config Tool and HD Tweak, anyone can point out to me how to do it?
Thanks a lot.
Yes, I like to know that too. When you use NoProgBack.cab and get rid of the gray cubes the 3 horizontal items are lost in space. It can handle 4 items next to each other with ease. The spin off would be that the tab can contain more programs.
Or, if that's easier: how to make two tabs called Programs...
Regards,
I don't start a new thread cause that's exactly what I am looking for... any news since december ?
I'd also be interested in any means of extending the amount of apps that can be accesed via the programs tab, beyond the standard 24.
If you add a 25th key and other details into the registry a new "option" block appears - but it is unusable.
Has anyone managed to get more than 24 option blocks on the standard HTC Touch HD Orange Rom type of Manila?
From settings tab: Touchflo3d v.1.3.35350.1_1630.38
from WinMo SETTINGS>TOUCHFLO>About v3.0 (Build 32567)
I'm not on a custom ROM and don't have the enthusiasm for using a custom rom.

However I'm looking for this to work on a stock rom.....anyone?

That's for the new Manila and it will not work on the old one. However, you can display 4 icons in a row in Settings and Programs with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=449077

Kinda of worked...had 4 icons per row, but they were slightly cut off at the top (not WVGA??) and had no text...plus it hung my phone...so removing..
Anymore ideas anyone?
Just to quantify, I can get 4 icons on the std Windows Mobile Programs and Settings screens using Advanced Config tool to push horizontal spacing to 110. However it's the Touchflo screen "Programs" I can't change.

TitaniumWeather for WM6.5 Standard [Updated 06_24_2009]

Update Notes (06_24_2009)
* Updated with a new CAB file
* Displays weather forecast details for 5 days
* Remove previous Showaco TitaniumWeather by awilaman installations before installing this CAB
* MortScript is required to run the Weather app. The latest version of MortScript is attached.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have ported Showaco's Titanium Weather to WM 6.5 Standard landscape phones.
It is based on the TitaniumWeather v3.1.2 release that uses dialogs for setup. It contains the fix with corrected URL to accuweather, so it should work out of the box.
It uses the BeyondInvisible icons, see screenshots and works with pudgedaddy's Titanium layout (PD Titanium, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=528983).
If you are using other layouts, it might modify them in undesireable ways, so I would suggest sticking with PD Titanium layout.

thanks for the weather app. maybe i will include it in my .cab ( permission ) but one thing, those without mortscript already installed will have a problerm running the options. so you may want to include the full version of mortscript in your .cab
For those having issues with the weather options install this and then it should work.

Thanks pudgedaddy, for the nice titanium layout (it is very clean and comparable to the WM 6.5 pro layout) and catching the potential issue for those without Mortscript preinstalled.
Please feel free to include the TitaniumWeather in your CAB.
To my knowledge this might be the first "successful" port of a Weather App onto the WM 6.5 standard and I have always been a fan of Showaco's TitaniumWeather app.
It is lightweight, clean and seems to complement your titanium layout. Also, if the weather panel is positioned directly above the Clock panel, you wouldn't need to clutter the Clock panel layout to see the current weather.
A couple of plugins/panel for Titanium that I am looking to port are the Launcher (apps), Comm Manager and Favorite People. These are the plugins from the Titanium Plugins page that I consider non-redundant
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=511052
I am also working on an original "Running Apps"/"Task Manager" panel which I hope will give our good ol' Dash/Excalibur/HTC S62[0/1] a Palm Pre Cards feel.

not working
Mine does not work does not show up on the front page, any order I have to install?
i too am having trouble with this. it does not appear on my screen
ok nevermind i see the problem. you have to use pudgedaddys titanium panels. does not work on default 3vo panels
Does not work for me with ookba's 1.30 series 3volution rom.
I installed both cabs given. Tried, uninstalling and tried installing them in a different order. Also tried to edit home screen settings. No luck
after installation of cab file
it gives
error
installation of showaco titanium weather wm6.5 standard version by awilaman.cab was unsuccessful
please help
Unfortunately, I do not have 3volution WM 6.5 ROM to verify things, so I cannot say what the issues are with installing on this ROM. (I will look into it)
I know it works with the PD Titanium Panels although I am not sure about the compatibility btw PD Titanium Panels and 3vo ROM.
I did the porting using PD Titanium Panel layout on the EnergyROM.
The challenge is that there doesn't seem to be a standard Titanium layout like there is on the WM 6.5 pro. This has a lot of implications for plugin development, one of which is that new plugins can only be compatible with one layout at a time and extra effort has to go into making them compatible with other layouts and will make it increasingly difficult to leverage efforts by other folks especially in the WM 6.5 Pro world. One of the challenges that they have derive from varying screen resolutions (QVGA vs. VGA vs. WQVGA vs WVGA) on different platforms something that is definition not an issue for Excalibur contributors. So, it almost seems like we are creating new challenges for ourselves where none would otherwise have existed.
In my own opinion, the PD Titanium layout is the closest to how WM 6.5 Standard Titanium equivalent of the WM 6.5 Pro version might look, so I have based the layout for the port of Showaco's TitaniumWeather on that. Also, I will base the layout of future plugins/panels on the PD Titanium until Microsoft defines something more standard (and different from the WM6.1 panels) or the PD Titanium changes radically.
With all that said, I will upload a revised CAB that should work on the 3vo default layout sometime later today.

sweet, will test it out. if it dont work ill set up my second dash to run the required stuff to use this, glad to see someone working on porting some panels over for us fine dash users
does anyone know who the hell "holy1991" over at pda4x.com is? he/she apparently posts stuff that they've found from other sites and then defames the OA, by claiming it as theirs. Well this time. He/She posted this app over their claiming its theirs, yet the sme time also posted links to this thread as well as my titanium thread.... Oh the nerve!
edit: They also posted the titanium file changer that rickwyatt posted as well. If anyone knows what the SN they use on this forum (if they have one) so i can take the appropriate action, let me know.

Same here....no go.
I've confirmed I'm using PD Titanium Panels, Mortscript 4.2 installed, all on EnergyRom 6.5 by NRGZ28 - reinstalled & rebooted a number of times.
Nothing shows up. I've went into the weather settings, changed a variety of settings, but still nothing.
I do appreciate the effort!

You will have to use the CHome Configurator to "Show" the TitaniumWeather Panel. This will make it visible on the Titanium Home Panel.
I just reinstalled the EnergyROM and followed these steps and it worked
* installed Mortscript,
* installed the Titanium Panel layoutnm (by pudgedaddy http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=528983),
* installed the TitaniumWeather panel.
* ran CHome Configuration ("CHome Config" from the start menu) to "Show" the Titanium Panel
* selected "Menu" from the TitaniumWeather panel and modify
* specified the "forecast options/setup"
* ran "Full Update and exit"

Also, include this step, as it is what I was missing. It was right in front of my face the whole time, and when I read your steps it finally hit, like KERPLOW!! Gosh I am such a dunce!
In between installing the Titanium Panel layout and the TitaniumWeather panel, make sure to go to Settings-->Home Screen--> and choose "Titanium Media TopBar". Otherwise nothing will display properly. I now have the Weather Panel setup, and have moved it with Chome Config to just under clock panel. Looks wunderbar. Excellent Work!! awilaman. Thanks, keep up the good work.
PS - Dude, you need a donation box in your sig, so's we can donate. lol.

I tried this on the 3VO, but unfortunately, at least for me, it didn't work. ookba and NRGZ28
are in the process of making a weather app for it. ookba's new release I think will contain it.

hi there.
i cooked my phone with Miri`s WM6.5 and tried to get more style from the TF3D using MAX TF3D theme maker
i used lots of components to try and make the BG4ALL to work
i also used other BG4ALL releases in this forum and nothing worked
just gos the title screen transparent, nothing works normally, the home screen appears broken, nothing is transparent and the icons in programs just look like they are behind a smoke curtain
can anybody supply a solution for this
in MAX TF3D the maker (used last version) the home components don`t work at all same problem, not even dutty`s.

what version of miris do you use? he also have one with manila 2.5 and that would maybe be the problem
V22 with manila 2.1.38403.2
Install MaxTTM
Add one of the BG4All components from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4038398&postcount=839 to your MaxTTM/Components dir where you installed the app.
Run MaxTTM, select TF3D 2.1 Home Layout from the drop down list, select a BG4All layout you like and press 'Deploy'.
Close the TRefresh warning and press TRefresh button in bottom left.
Close MaxTTM and wait for TF3D to reload
Go to the settings tab and set a wallpaper
I'm not using Miri's rom, and he updates his manila version quicker than I can keep up... It is possible that a new layout might be needed to be made to work. However the version you're using is being used by other people who have no problems...
is it possible with manila 2.5 version to mke anything ?Maybe transparentslider or another tabicons...
thanks

Yep. I've started disassembling it and cataloguing what files do what. Mostly theyve just changed names, so you can rename older edits to work with it (tab icons etc). I'm loathe to work too hard on it as these are very early alpha builds - the final release might be completely different!
10x millski , that worked perfectly

Touch Flo mod

I am using NFSFAN's 6.5 final release and love it. I would like to change the touch flo around a bit. Any tools or reg hacks that will allow me to reorder the tabs, maybe change the weather app to spb weather?
I like this build and interface better than the spb 3.5 which I had recently purchased, don't even use it now.

Have you tried the Manilla 2D Customizer located in the system settings? You will not be able to incorporate spb 3.5 though.
You can re-arrange the tab order by using M2D Customizer. Go to start>settings>Manila2D Customizer...click the bottom tabs "tabs" and highlight the widget you want to move and click "move up" or "move down". If you want to remove a tab untick it from the same menu. Click apply and Manilla will re-launch.
