Just got the default HTC_Default.tsk and i'm glad my phone looks the way I thought it would when I bought it. I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of the remaining traces of that hideous blu Cingular theme. Thanks in advance for any help.

I think you should take a look in the HTC Wizard forum, or use the search for changing your Splash screen!
What do you mean by remaining traces? Dialpad? Color scheme?
Sorry noobed out I forgot to say Hermes

Thanks for the reply mccune. I'm on a Cingular 8525 aka Hermes. I got the HTC_Default.tsk and it looks awesome. I'd like to get rid of the phone dialer splash with the blue background and cingular logo I see when I use the phone. I'm still butchering the names of all the screens so I apologize. I realize it's hard to communicate w/o the lingo down. I'm learning. I'm trying to change the appearance of the phone w/o bricking it with a bad ROM install before I know what I'm doing. Thanks in advance for any tips on where to look. I'm definitely willing to feed myself if you point me to the fish.
For dialers you should check: PaulYa
You can simply create your own boot screen by doing this:
- Create a PNG image 320x240
- name the image: welcomehead.96.png
- Set the properties of the image so that it's hidden
- place the image in youw Windows directory of your device
The third part, the splash screen. I suggest you search for it in the Hermes section. There is also a big topic about this in the Wizard section. Don't know if it works the same.
Awesome dialer!
Thanks for the 411! I'm running Paul's dialer and it rocks. I've been doing so much research I've forgotten half my life.
Hi guyz
I found this theme somewhere here before but I couldn locate where is it now. It has a lot of tsk files for HTC today plugin. Anybody can give me the link?
htc home dont have anything to do with theme tsk files
any tsk file since pocketpc2000 works just fine
so what you are really looking for is pretty much just
a background picture
Its a tsk file that I have downloaded from this forum...the one I posted is call "moon and tree" and they have a lot more but I forgot the thread title...the reason im looking for that tsk files is that it is created in way that top portion of the picture is black to suit the HTC home and the bottom part has various picture....

Can I ask a really noob question?
When I bought my phone (htc p4350) it had a htc-home 'plugin'. When I select it, I never get this nice weather nor a big clock or anything. I just get a big blank part on my screen.
Now I downloaded from this forum some htc-home plugins, but I never get them working. I install .cab files and still nothing changes on my phone. I ad and remove home items but it remains a big nothing.
WHy can't I get this to work? Somehow phones fail on me. I have extended knowledge of computers and Windows XP, programming, etc. yet I can't get a simple home plugin to work on my HTC phone.
I have searched on this forum for 'htc home plugin' or 'htc weather' and get many hits. But I still can't get it to work. I must be missing some very basic skills here, something that's not being explained because it is so obvious... like switching on the phone (I did THAT!)
Please help this idiot.

When I bought my first PPC, I didn't have a clue on how to mod it, or do any of the cool stuff I saw other people were doing. I read the forums for a good week, and tried to find out all the info I could. Afterwards, I tried a few mods and they worked! There were a couple of times where I couldn't figure something out, THATS when I posted and asked questions that were answered by forum members. You have to do some reading, research & experimentation about things first, you can't just post a general question and expect everyone to spoon-feed you the information. Read a few threads dealing with how to do what you want to do, use the search, and you will see someone has asked the same questions you have now. Download the .CAB files you need, and happy modding!
thanks mate
all i want to know is if i am using the right software i download something name the diamondtf3d i can chage the skin but the skin comes like half way down the screen i guess that because it was design for the diamond which has a small screen so i want to know if there is a version for the blackstone
Depends on the theme. Some themes can be obtained by just replacing manilla files in your Windows folder. Search for instructions in the appropriate theme thread.
Regards,
Carty..
thanks mate
well right now i am using a program name diamond tf3d config and the themes are coming like half way in the screen can some one help me plz
can the diamond TF3D config used to edit/add themes for HTC HD / blackstone? will there be any problem?
Using a Diamond tool on your Blackstone/HD could cause trouble because the screen resolution and size are way different (Blackstone 480x800, Diamond 640x480)
Have been trying to search for a cab for FINGER MENU's OFF like energyrom's have built into there roms, I have managed to find how to add the enhanced menu's within HTC, but can't find how to turn them off and use the standard WM6.5 menu's.
Please does anyone know where I can find how to do this ?
See obviously no ones knows...no responses at all
Is it only me that dislikes the HTC enhanced menus ?
WOOOO hooooo I managed to find this cab, so if anyone wants to get rid of those menus...has taken me all day to find this
Just change this in your registry:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu]
"CUIHandler"=dword:00000000
Soft reset and you're done. The CAB you've uploaded contains some Push dll file as well. This is not needed as far as I know
HTC Menus
I really dislike those menus as well. Thanks because I was having a really difficult time finding anyone who knew the default menus still existed.

you can also look at my post if you still need some assistance.
Hello guys.
This is my first post on this forum. so I hope i'm doing it right.
I have a HTC touch HD with the most standarg TF3D on it (Version : 3.0 build 32567).
I see all the screens of what you people did with your phone and I like it a lot. So I looked and looked even more on the forum.
And still i can't figure out how to get a nice layout as you have. First I thought I need to find new ROM (Manila) But then I figured out I have Manila becouse it's TF3D.
I just totaly lost it. Can someone point me in the right direction so I can get a new look on my phone with the extra buttons and collorfull taskbar buttons?
I know it has to be found on this forum, And im not lazy to look (did that past week) I just have no clue where to start.
Tnx All.
