Hey guys,
I'm trying to make my home screen as "clean" as possible, and I'm wondering if there is a way to remove Call history and/or Calender beneath the clock?
Cheers
I'm searching for this for a while too. I still didn't find anything yet. Hope someone can help us
This could be handy

@Chef Ben
Ok, at the weekend I made a cab for me so I can install the "clean hometab" at my german diamond in one step, it also ereases the dotted line and the arrwos. So before you install my custom cab, you have to uninstall the single cab first.
(Note: with this cab you will also get a transparent clock background)

Elvelynns first post about editing the home screen is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2861270&postcount=590
In the file '7e640092_manila' (xml language file) you can edit/delete the text for the different entries on the hometab. Just open this file with a normal editor and edit/delete the entries (for example Date, text for "blank" callhistory- or calendar-row, not active alarm, ...).
Only the next entry in the calendar-row and the display of an active alarm cannot be changed with this methode.
You also have to know, that this mod only changes the visual appearance and not the "function" of the row, for example if you tab on the now blanked callhistory-row you will still get to the callhistory.

However, I don't know if it's compatible with Blackstone.
ok i've tried it,
all that happens is it removes the dotted lines....
if i get time i'll look at the 7e640092_manila

That would be awesome, InsecureSpike
Keep us informed!
I cannot find a way to set my application to replace the default (or HTC) notification face. The one you get when you tap the taskbar and showing your incoming SMS, missed calles, battery state. Any one has an idea on this?
In the same idea, I'd like to be able to create my own task bar. Not just changing the icons.

Ok, I know it, it's nice... but the question was: how, as a developer, i can do it?
I couldnt find an app so I wrote one.
This small app will give you the option to Save your current Settings or rather Mods to Manila/Sence or whatever you call it.
Im no good at graphics so I need someone to give me ideas on how to make it look better.
It will scan the windows folder for all *manila files that has a different date to the original Rom installation. It will take all these files and backup them to a specified folder. So when you flash and you had special clocks,icons,sliders, etc etc you can simply restore it instead of having to reapply all these custom items.
O yes please install on the Storage Card. Might waste too much space on the Internal memory.
I tested it and seems ok but all apps has bugs so please be nice. Leme know if any body wants the source code. Written in C# VS2008
Version 1.1
Please uninstall the old version. I changed the name to Theme Switcher so it will install into a different folder. You can just move the Backup Folder Across. Got some nice graphics and changed the wallpaper. The Config.txt file have some settings in it. Have a look.
Also Any files listed in extrafiles.txt will be backed up and restored as well so one can easily backup the current wallpaper etc
Version 1.4
Just added an Image so if you add a file by the name of "theme.jpg" in the folder where its backed up to it will show the image before you can apply it
Im sorry I re Uploaded the Cab File forgot to include the txt files.
If the Application Icon didnt show in the start menu its been fixed as well. Please show me some screen shots on a diamond
Version 1.5
Rebuild Cab file
- Icon Shows correctly
- All files included
- Added option to Exit without refreshing TF3D
Version 1.6
- Small Graphical changes
- Added following entries to extrafiles.txt which should backup the taskbar etc as well:

THANK YOU
Grumps, great job I love this app. Simple and works great.
I will be using it, not only as a theme saver, but also as a theme changer.
I just tried it to switch themes and it worked great.
I haven't used it much yet, so I don't have much feedback.
The only thing that I have come across that needs fixing is that the drop down list for the restore saved theme.
It is hidden behind the restore saved theme button.
Everything else works great.
Thank you so much.
Wouldnt i be nice to save phcanover & the other dlls with icons, too?
Seems to be a great app that will save me a lot oft time,
thx³

i can do that if you can gimme a list of the files. or maybe i can create a text file and one can list all the files in there that it should include in the backup? does anybody know which files contain the wallpaper and the top and bottom bar. guess its called the taskbar. the ones thats part of the top icons and bottom buttons. then it could be a complete theme changer. i use it as that as well
Grumps, thanks for the app. I believe that I am having the same condition that Phonatic describes. I have a Rhodium with stock rom, manilla 2.1.
But that shouldn't matter, should it?
My screenshot has differences from yours, aside from the bottom bar difference between your sense and my manilla.
Mine has the top task bar and less space between the drop-down list and the "restore saved theme" button.
Also mine has nicer looking buttons.
Do I have the wrong version?
When you have more items in your drop down list, does your list stay above the button?
I still am using it. I just use my arrow down/up to make my selection.
Grumps, as a suggestion to fix the problem that I have,
would it be easier to adjust the layout?, than to change the drop down to render in front of the buttons.
Something like this.
Also, since you asked for graphic suggestions, what do you think about making all the buttons have the same look.
Another suggestion is for your startup.jpg.
Instead of your screenshot, which is very nice, how about something that displays the program name and authored-by info.
With a "tap screen to proceed" kinda instruction placed somewhere.
Here are quick mock-ups of the idea that I am trying to convey.
I'm actually using it for your app, they look good on my Rhodium, much better than this screen shot.
I used screenshots from this site to make these mock-ups. Thanks to the OPs.
If anyone minds that I used their image, please let me know and I will replace it.
Anyway, just some food for thought.
Thanks again for the great app, Tilt
This awesome and such a time saver, thank you so much! One thing is I can not delete theme i have saved, I store on storage card but it says I can not delete it is denied other than that it is exactly what I have been looking [email protected]
Thank you for this program!

Wow I like this. Think its a good idea. Maybe I should change the Name to Them Switcher. Dont you wanna do the images for me with the name Theme switcher? I dont know quote how to do all this but ill try and make graphics work as button thingys. Leme see what I can do.

I will patiently wait for the fix. It still works as is.
By the way I like the taskbar showing on top.
Would you please do me the honor of putting this Startup.jpg on your Rhodium.
I just want you to see how it looks on the phone.
The screenshot just doesn't do it justice.
@anyone that wants to see how this looks on the phone, just right click on the image,
save as Startup.jpg and use it to replace the one in your phones Theme Saver folder.

Ihave and I am using it. Im batteling to make it look right on Windows 6.5 and 6.5.3 because of the topbar being smaller and bigger. Can you also give me one without any writing eg theme switcher and save/restore/switch and press any key. Trying to use it as a background image for the app and moving the controls to the menu items

You got a private message. Thanx for the image
What do you think of these buttons?
Here's a template that I made for you.The dimensions are exact to the current layout.
If you were to replace the current background with this, it would be functional.
Some graphics should be added, especialy to brighten the lower section.
The size of the top button looks off, I suggest either make it bigger to match
(which would look crowded with the task bar, unless you lower everything),
or I can change it into a text box or no box just text.
Do you need text added, or is the text part of the app?
Anyway, just let me know your preferences ie graphics, text, color, button style etc., and I will adapt accordingly.

This looks very nice. The reason why there is such a big gap at the bottom is that im not sure if it will all fit on a vga device. The buttons look nice. I also cant use it as is because on different device with different os's like 6.1 6.5 6.5.3 the image moves slightly up and down. so you will have to include the images with the text on it, as individual images and they have to be square cause i dont know how to program transparency as yet. Hope it would be possible. Thanx soo much for the effort so far It looks awesome

Grumps, I just read your pm. Gimme a minute. I think I have something for you.
Thanks for the info above.
As I understand it, you need buttons with text and the background seperate.
I am uploading a file for you. Please let me know how these work for you.View attachment Grumps.zip
Hello
I have a question, advace and maybe a request if this is posible.
So for example in HD Tweak we have simalar option to Show battery Icon in the Manila Dialer Top Bar. When you enabled this the Battery indicator is located in Manila Dialer topbar right.
And when you enable it.. when you call etc.. you are able to see anytime your battery, but this is useless because we can see this battery info in the TASKBAR already.
When you do this tweaks with HD Tweak he do some registry editing... my question is can we do this tweak with the Clock?!?
I know all avalible apps that add a clock to your TASKBAR but im talking we to have clock on the Manila Dialer Top Bar.
In this case we dont need to install any 3rd party application.. and etc also the phone will look like default and when you have a conversation you will be able to see anytime the clock witch is SUPER useful
If with registry edit there can be shown or hide the battery indicator why with registry editing there cant have a Clock?
Im asking do someone thing is posible?
In all Builds that not have a clock in the TASKBAR will be very useful in the dialer to be shown the clock.
Im talking about Manila 2.1 Sense but this can be done for all Sense versions.. etc.

Ohh men i told you i know all avalible applications for this Batt clock also have some apps like Batti that show a line with your battery status and in this case you can remove the battery from the taskbar and put there the default clock from settings, system, data and time and show clock etc..
The best program for now witch use litle ram is BattLineSvc V2.1 witch is really good.
I was speaking can we do some reg tweak without to install ANY APPICATION to have Clock in the MANILA DIALER TOP BAR clock to be able to see the time when you making a call NOT in the TASKBAR.
About BattClock I USE every version in the last one year and i know very well how this app work.
Thanks
I always recommend Wisbar Advance for everything taskbar-related unfortunately, it's not free.

I have Wisbar i think nobody understand me!!!
I dont speak about ANY TASKBARS here..
I speak about Tweak/Hack Reg edit whatever the Manila Dialer when you recive call or make call to have a Clock without to install any other Apps for this.
And the Clock is on the TOP RIGHT CORNER of the Manila Dialer im not talking about the TASKBAR
maybe I'm really stupid, but where is the clock supposed to be? there is no space for it in the dialer as there is already the backspace button...

Install HD tweak then enable the Battery to show in the dialer and will see where is supposed to be, have enought space in the gray manila dialer top bar.
You have backspace button right? But when you call or recive call the Backspace button is clear.
You have this Button enabled Only when you dial the numbers..
Also depends from the Dialers, on some dialers the backspace button is on the bottom right on the place for conference call, some dialers not have conference call option and there is the backspabe button and the space on the top is free etc.. have alot of options.
hey all i have read and read and tried and tried but have come up with nothing...
maybe someone can help me out...
i am trying to get my contact and dialer background to be clear... like my status bar but i cant get it... also i am trying to remove/block favorites tab like on cm7... please can some one help me out....
i am on evervolv 2.3.2... great rom....
once again please help me and thank you in advanced...
Dialer one has an option to use your wallpaper as dialer background, essentially making it transparent. You cannot choose different levels of transparency. You also choose what screen you want as your main screen (call log, contacts, etc) and just swipe left or right to get to the next one. It doesn't get rid of favorites but the tabs are hidden.
I know this isn't really what you're looking for, but it's better than nothing I guess.
It's free in the market by the way.
