OK so first attempt at making a manilla theme.
To preview the theme view this Youtube video:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Usfgin8pRFg
The attached zip file just contains the modified manila files from the Windows directory.
To install:
1. Close TF3D in settings
2. Copy all files to Windows directory using Total Commander
3. Reload TF3D
Please feel free to edit the theme, repackage as a Cab file or distribute but please give me credit.
I may make further changes to the theme but I am definately fed up with dicking around with those stupidly named manila files (even with Manila Editor)!
I accept no responsiblity for any problems this may cause with your phone - make sure you backup all files first.
Hope you enjoy

Very Nice!
will this work on vga devices like HTC touch pro?
Should work on VGA devices - maybe problems with the wallpaper files?
Thanks for this, it's a really neat theme. Keep up the good work!!
yeh thanks a lot it is really nice !
Theme blackstone on diamond...
It's possible to convert any backstone theme in a diamond theme??? I want a mario galaxy theme for my diamond!
I'm not 100% but I think that the manilla files should be compatible? After all it is VGA and TF3D (Perhaps someone can confirm this?) I know that the background would be different but it is in a separate folder in the zip.
Perhaps someone could backup their manila files, try replacing and report back. Sorry, I obviously don't have a VGA device.

fantastic!!!! ..but i'm looking for this theme in only on file, to use it with tf3d config.. is it possible ?
thanks !! bye
Wow ~ Very nice !! Thanks for your sharing
Any solution...?
Any solution for the porting of this theme for htc diamond/touch pro?thanks
Not what i would have on my phone but im a mario fan and this is a VERY cool theme!!!
Sooo cool!
Thanks!
returning to no original state
i've gotta say i love this theme and hope there will be much more to come but can i just ask how do i return the theme to it's original state?
i backed up all of the files i had to overwrite so i assume i just have to overwite with the originals again but i just wanted to make sure before i do anymore modding.
thanks in advance
NEED HELP!
so regarding my previous post i fixed back to the original them using the diamond config and it turned out i didn't really need to back up anything but it's better safe than sorry i guess,however now i cannot change my wallpaper on the today screen and it's really pissing me off.
the only thing that happens is that when i turn off tf3d i see a faint version of what i wanted but tf3d will not change.
can anyone help me out?
is it not possible to make .theme extension instat messing around with the manilla files and such... cool theme many thnx

cab
I really love this theme, but I am looking for a cab version of this.
Is anyone willing to make one?
Hi,
I am new, pls forgive me if my question seems stupid...
1) Pls let me know the easiest & safest way to change my TF3D background wallpaper... I have read many threads about this, what I understand is most involve customising the whole TF3D or changing the theme "in package", which I wish not to try for this moment..
2) Is there any way to add program's names in the program launcher? .. other than flashing a new ROM..
THANK YOU VERY MUCH..
Hello to all guy`s here i just have One very simple question... will be fine if someone can answer me clear.
Befor i use only Symbian Phones and all was diferent from NOW!
Now i have HTC touch HD and sometimes i really think that is very confused to operate with this device what i mean exactly is..
I read alot in this forum and in other forum`s.. and i can`t understand One Thing.
Why for example if i wana change my Start Menu Icon.. or Action buttons or even my theme i need to do so many confused things like change this file, rename this.. overwrite that.. extract this. all this is 1st confused second is not good for the phone and for YOU.
I will explain you why..
For example now i wana change my Start Menu Icon.. but after i read alot things im not sure do im able to change it
So for example if i change it.. after a while someday if i wana get back my stock icon`s what i need to do? I will forgot what exactly i rename,change where witch file i put and etc.. and this is just for one Start Menu Icon.. imagine when you change and costumaze the whole bar`s icons etc.. after few mounths im sure you will not know witch file exactly is modifet and etc!
The question is.. befor when i use Symbian all was so clear and easy i wana change something just install the app and that`s all if i don`t wana use this icon`s or themes anymore i can easy just remove them and that`s all!
So i wonder and asking myself why here not have the same things in .CAB`s
For example i wana change my icon`s just installing some .cab and all is done when i don`t want them just uninstall all will be so clear and easy and good for the phone.
I don`t understand from this things for this reason im asking you Maybe is very hard all this icon`s font`s and other items that the whole forum write tip`s how to change this how to chagne that can`t be made in a single .CAB file?
We can make our life better with a simple .CAB installation no need to change any manilla files or overwrite any dll and etc....
P.S Sorry for my english but it`s not my Mother.. language like you can see
Regards
ive got most hings in cab files so it doesnt bother me and i flash my rom so many times that i dont even have the time to get bored with something because i dont instal it after i flashed
so i think this is a thing thats different for every user
Do u have .CAB for change of the icon`s or start menu icon?
ive got one for all the icons on top with the picture that pulls the start
the site is full of them
and i had one that only the top left one made to a scull
Sorry for bodering you but like i say im new on all this with the WM can you please give me this cab`s that you have for the scull logo and the other to install and see how they will look like on my phone!
Thanks in advance

No need to markup your story like that. People will read it with default settings as well... ...If you can't remember what you've changed I advise you not to change anything, or keep a text file containing information about your personal tweaks.
The reason that it's quite cumberstone to change things is because Microsoft never wanted you to change those parts of the software. Some clever people found a way to get pass the ideas of Microsoft and managed to to change parts of the OS that's on your device.
This is the same reason why you can't put all files in one CAB file. Some files are read only files and need some "special attention" to be modified\replaced. Second thing is that ROM files depend on their language. Most compatibility will be achieved by using a WWE ROM
You can apply changes to the OS easier by using a program like Wisbar Advance. But you will notice that the system will become slower. Thats why a lot of people prefer to do some freeware tweaking to their devices. I hope this story clears up some things for you...
Thank you for all you wrote but the point was other anyway i find some apps i was looking for the question was why the peoples don`t make .CAB`s and do it the hardest way so to change some icon`s font clock`s and everything all this is possible with a signle CAB file no need to change something or overwrite or re-name and someday when you don`t wana use this you can just uninstall the .CAB that was the point i already use some of the .CAB`s that change icon`s etc and its perfect!
Thank`s to the miniterror
GUYS,
I think i know u guys must be sick and tired answering the questions that i have, but i have tried to search but could not find any good enough answer to help me out with my blackstone. Again.. my apologies on all this but i really could appreciate if someone..anyone could help me!
1 - How do i change my theme? It was easy when i was using a Diamond, but now with HD.. everytime i try to download and install a theme here, it just doesn't work and at times keep getting my phone hanging on black screen! im getting bored with my standard theme and tabs. (FYI, i have no clue what manila i am at.. all i know my is wm6.1)
2 - Looking for a solid dictionary, ram cleaner or some good applications to enhance my usage of Blackstone / HD
3 - Finally but not least, some of this post are talking about Gyrate 2. Can i use it? without screwing my phone?
Again guys, i am terribly sorry to throw this same ol same old questions which im sure u guys get alot of it. But really need some help... please and thank you!!
1 - It depends on which ROM you have, with wich Manila version. If you install the wrong one, there's a chance you'll screw up a lot of graphic things. If i can suggest you a theme, try Dusk (search here). There are versions for standard ROM, for ROM's with Manila 2.0, Manila 2.1, Manila 2.5 and Manila 2.6: it's all matter of choosing the right one.
2a - Language? English?
2b - Ram Cleaner, try htcAddicts CleanRam (search here)
2c - Which kind of apps do you need? Tell me your needs, i'll tell you your apps
3 - You can use Gyrator2, but in my opinion Changescreen (search here) is better
thank u for a reply bbonzz.
I finally found a theme that i can use - DUSK FOR DEFAULT ROM! heheheh.. but just so i know.. how do i check what manila am i at. My rom is the default 1.56
dictionary - english. but if theres a build in translator.. it'll be so lovely.
Htcaddicts tried to install it.. but its full of gibberish.. just files.. not application. And it a zip file, once i unzip.. theres no cab file...just lots of i dont know what!!
ill try to take a look regarding changescreen.
Just a note.. links that ur trying to put could not be seen or use

If you have the default Rom, you also have the "old" Manila 1.x, so you're right: use Dusk default. Since i have Manila 2 since a long time i don't remember exactely, but if i'm not wrong in settings tab you can see also Manila version at bottom
with "search here" i mean search on this board: i haven't put any link
for dictionary, you can give a try to Slovoed (paid).
CleanRam: never had this problem: maybe is your browser that corrupts download?
bbonz,
What app can i get for Yahoo Messenger? Got MSN... looking for YM as well

hey,
I just received my touch HD today and installed blackstone rom with manila 2.1. Now i want to change themes and install some apps, where can i find a list of compatible themes? can you please tell what i have to install before the themes?
Thank you very much
138 views and no one knows how to apply themes?
BTW im using manila 2.5 now but seems im still doing something wrong i installed diamond config still with no sucess.
Plese help!
I dont beleave 138 people are more noob than me at this.
Regards
NO the reason for now reciving anwers is because your Questions are tottally NOOB but will tell you with few Words for what to looking.. there are thousend Apps and Themes and etc for our devices..
When you looking to install a Program or Theme the 1st think you need to look at is to be WVGA resolution because this is the Blackstone Resolution..
For example google WVGA themes and try to find what you want...
I don`t know WHY you cant install app? its super easy just download the cab put in your sd and run the cab .... and the program or theme is being installed ....?!
