Change TF3D Tab color

I´ve modded my HD with nocurtains application and new Icons for the TF3D, however, the squares aroud the icons are still grey, is it possible to chande the color to match the theme?

If you mean like mine then I did it with the attached cab file (or at least I think it was that one that did it).

That´s it :d
How did you chenge the start icon? Have that CAB?

There's a thread about it here. I can't remember without looking but I seem to think the file also has various other icons altered. If you wanted a version with just the HTC logo altered I can do that for you? Or if you want the full coloured top bar I have a more recent version than in that thread that uses files just from the HD when possible.

I already have the colored topbar, but if you can post your version of the colored topbar with the icon changed it would be nice, can you also change the start to "iniciar" ?
Then can you post the cab for changing only the logo?

Sorry about the delay I got a bit sidetracked yesterday.
I've attached two cab files. One replaces the Start icon only (all the other icons are untouched). The other is one I created using just files from the Touch HD when possible (the other version knocking about seemed to use some differing files from the Diamond and also had two 80% battery indicators but no 79% which I've fixed). You need to install SDKCert.cab if you've not already got it. I've changed the word start to "iniciar" with a lowercase I. If you want it with a capital I let me know. I've been using the second one on my phone for a week or so but with Touch HD with no issues but other than me it's completely untested.
Also, the modified files are from a WWE ROM using English. I believe other locales use different files.

this thread will be moved to the theme , software and application section

It looks amazing
Please, send me the cab with Capital "I"
Can you explain me how do you make this cab files? To complicated for a noob?

Here's the same cab with full colour icons, HTC start icon and a capital I in Iniciar. You need to install SDKCert.cab if you've not already got it.
To create the top bar took a bit of figuring out at first but once I'd got my head around it it's fairly easy. All the guides are on the forums somewhere. I'll have a look to see if I can find the ones I used.
Once the files are modified creating the actual cab file to install them is very simple thanks to an excellent program called Quickcab that is also on the forums. You tell it which files you want copying to the phone and where you want them, create any registry keys that may need altering (this top bar has one key that changes the amount of battery statuses to 101). You then give it a description for Remove Programs and a file name and click create.

Hi friend! I liked your botton icons. Where can I pick this theme up? Does it include Stocks icon?
Thanks

It's from an excellent Diamond theme by DjOuBhAa called Simply Black. When the Touch HD first came out someone adapted the full theme but I only wanted the bottom icons so I took out the manilla files for the icons and made my own cab file. Unfortunately it doesn't include a Stocks tab icon (the original didn't either).
I've attached the cab I used as well as No Curtains to remove the top and bottom curtains and Pamas Transparant Slider to give a transparent slider and remove the background on the icons not currently highlighted.
It also looks very good on a lighter background

Hello, in the transparent slider i see an whit symbol only over the indizies-tab.
All others are ok. Can you help, that all tabs are blank, when sliding?
Thanks
Manfred

Thanks a lot for the icons and all the work you had.
There is only one other thing I would want it to change if possible, the battery icon, I saw one that looks better in my opinion, it´s somewhere around xda, but can´t find the link, please see post #2202 in the following link.

I've just double checked my Remove Programs and also my Cab folder and they're definitely the two I installed (apart from the actual icons) to get my slider as it is. The only thing I can guess at is if the order you install them in could make a difference? Maybe try them the other way around?

Changing start menu icons??

It's there a way to change the start menu icons??
Have been searching for about 2 days and no luck for me...

Check this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=525341
I am also interested in changing the main menu icons.
But as far i can tell there is no great enthusiasm among
people in this forum to get this going...
Anyway, the guy that posted the thread knows how to do this...
I only changed the original icons to a background ones to make
them look better.

the thing is, is there a way to examined that .cab to know what to do or something?

I can make you a CAB for WM 6.5 Prof Style icons and one for Snap-alike icons!

Hey
Hey frauhottelmann
Could you create a cab or .dll(even better) containing icons for
bunch of default and not default programs (fring, twitter etc...)
So when we use it if we have the program it will change the icon
if not... nothing will happen....
And if we like to be able to change the icons in the .dll
That would be awesome!!!
We could call the people to create a list of programs we use...
And we could create icon collections or something...
That would be great...
btw could you teach me how to do it my self?

i'm insterested as well in learning how to create and change the icons on the start menu.
please teach us...

Manila 2.5.1920 Font Color change?

When using Wallpapers that are more on the bright side and BG4all, it becomes really difficult to read the text on some of the HTC Sense (Manila 2.5) tabs, especially the messaging one.
So I was wondering if it is possible to change the font color to black or something else.
Anyone know something about this?
Thanks,
Rag.

Same question here.
I found a thread where they talk about it but its not Manila 2.5.
So I would like to know which Files I have to edit in 2.5
Here is the Thread I mean:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2749452
Thank you for help

I use m9Editor, look for the mode9 files for the parts u want to change..
Manila mode9 u can search say for all entries called "text" this will so you things such as carrier name, in there you can add a property for the colour and change it to what you want.
Look for the m9editor thread, much better explanations in there than I can give
Found them;-
My example, if this is what you mean - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=570395

You can just use m9editor. The only thing you need to do for a slider with mode9 might be to hide the active tab icon when that tab is selected with a transparent slider (otherwise you get an overlap of 2 icons when using a transparent slider). To change the graphic files, you would use cfcgui. Choose the slider and export to png with that program. Edit png to your liking and place it back in manila file with cfcgui.

That's actually what I want to do exactly
I looked at the m9editor and opened some extracted manila files, but I don't quite understand the parameters Do you know what I have to edit exactly to remove the overlapping image?

Hola,
1) the Top Icons as you call them, are "hidden" and included within the dll´s of your device. If you want to change them, you can either learn how to make taskbars (extract images from them, easy, but then mod them, also easy, and finally "put them back in and make the taskbar work - not so easy). You might find up to 1500 or 2000 images within the taskbar. Some of the images can be found in windows root though ;-)
It´s a lot easier to find a "proper" taskbar with the icons you want, or and this I would not recommend at all - play and check which dll is responsible for which iconm and mix them.
Messing with these can really screw your device, so if you don´t know, don´t do it
2) Transparency for the BackGround of ClockArray
- you can edit the manila file for the background your self, then you would have to decide wethere transparent or visible, and keep the "other" version on SD card, so that when ypou wanted to change that, you simply "replace" the one in windows from SD Card
- or if using CHT, you can install Poyensa´s CHT Tweaks (beta) and use the config possibilities in it to make it transparent or visible on the go, as well as many other interesting configuration options within and for CHT Widgets...
3) That is a rather tricky one because it´s hidden in the mode 9 file for that tab, and maybe also referenced by lua files and other mode9, and this tweaks are discussed in specific threads so that the average user is not missled into modding elements that could mess his or her sense(s)
4) You already have those icons provided by you. The are in the cab from Keko
If you check the files with CFCGui you will find up to 5 or 6 icons that are "almost" the same for each tab. As posted in the other thread:
he slider cab / or slider elements consist of the following groups/items:
- Slider bar icons when selector is not "on" them
- Icons on selector when scrolling over bar icon (these are transparent when using transparent slider, except for calendar because of date)
- Midscreen Icons
and last but not least, the ones within the settings tab and tab config personalize options
If you could tell me, which ones you would like to change, I could provide you with the list for them

Which manila files are these?

Hi, manila files are located in the windows, if you change (copy paste) remember to backup the original ones.
This cab is for transparent bar operator, just to start ....... To me it works 100% with CHT. to make transparent the other bars, there are many cab we work with hd mini. There is a cab I think I ANASTASIA that makes everything transparent screen, calendar of 70%. the only thing that does not work with hd mini is the digital clock. My setup always with CHT.

If the cab is OK, it should restore the o files after uninstall - but you should ALWAYS know the files that are beeing modded/replaced, and if you don´t have your ROM files broken down already on PC, then you should back them up from device first
FlipClock background has two files:
BackGround normal = "31794a12_manila"
BackGround when "pressed" = "0b6f5c5e_manila"

Hi BHS,
thx fpr this file names. The Flip Clock background files are well known
I am searching the files for the top bar. In my Screen marked with number 2

You are still on CHT right?
Sure, check out 573d289b_manila It´s a manila qtc (image) file that can easily be modded to suit your needs for the Home Tab. And in one of Gabbana´s posts (actually two posts, one cab and one zip) where he offers transparent top bars for all tabs except the Music Tab... Sense Transparent top bar tab Maybe you have included them already in your collection of Gabbana´s work?

You,re welcome. If you try files, just remember to always backup the original ones, and if you are not sure about the origin or the changes in those files, replace them one by one and check for results...
This way, if "undesired" side effects happen, you can simply replace the file by the initial one
Unless a cab / install does a lot to your registry... In this case, an uninstall sometimes will not revert your registry back, but you can check in the cab for the changes.
