Hi all.
I've been working on this...aswell as panels...and 15 tabs..and other bits here and there.... to create a Tidy up of the TF3D
It is a custom pack.... and it addresses some things that should have been done in the first place In my opinion...
THIS WILL NOT WORK ON ANY MANILA v2/v3 ROMS SO IF YOU USE DUTTY's ROMS... DO NOT TRY THESE FILES.
Let me know what you think of it... and any feedback for enhancements....

Thanks all...Please give your feedback and thoughts for any other enhancements,,
Hopefully you will see, the changes I have made, you can only see as they are pointed out.. but only when put against a stock version will it really show!
As a good tester... bring your HD up with the same page as you are looking at as my pics... then look at changes,, subtle... but better
Right.. Here are the first 2 cabs.
As with everything in TF3D.. turn off TF3D.. and copy/backup all your _manila files from \Windows to your PC. This way.. you always have a return/system restore point.
Manila Core Pack..Install 1st
and then choose one of these
Manila Orange Pack With Background
Manila Orange Pack without Background
and install it second
Thanks

First of all, great job.. I've kind of come to expect this level of work in your releases. Looks simply fantastic!
Now, here's my suggestion: can you provide the option for users to set their own wallpaper before installation - and keep it across all tabs? What I mean - the upcoming .cab would take the Today's wallpaper and, upon installation, set it as the default for all tabs.
Or - a little variant - in case that a single 800x480 .png file is present in the installation cab's folder, take it and set it as a wallpaper across all tabs.
That would allow for some level of personal touch...
Great work, anyway. Looking forward to see in on my HD.

Wow, great work!!
Trust me, that are no small changes, I see them immediately.
What I would personally like:
Indeed a couple of cabs, for example, I would like to have all these changes, except the coloured top icon bar and the background.
For me it would be difficult to change back to original background in all tabs.
Furthermore, the orange theme is really really nice.
You say that this theme will have an option to change colour, does that work ok?
One last thing: in the "orange" theme, did you color it all? For example, also the volume up color, loading bars, etc etc?

Hi...
The ability to embed the background from a pic.. is something i cannot do.
There is nothing stopping someone else writing a prog to do this though...
simpley write the header to a _manila file.. read in the pic... write it into the new _manila and then write in the footer and save the _manila to the right name into the \windows dir.
Would take some coding.. but i'm sure some guys here can do it.
The only thing i can do is make the 2 packs.. and have them so you install the
Core pack with all transparancy and tidy ups..
colour pack - orange / purple / Xperia.
This would be the easiest way..
otherwise you will get
top bar
bottom bar
message icon
mail icon
phone icons comm manager
phone icons settings..
and so on... it would be a real long winded thing to do.
let alone the inability to support all these things
I could create the colour packs (which do colour the volume and progs like mp3 trimmer.. and the highlight bars...) without the background change.. so if you have your own bg files.. they will remain.
i will however put in the new fix i made for the bg Strip problem.
(93 downloads.. so i guess ppl needed it)
(i am working on how to set highlight colours to match in explorer.. I have them done. but i need an easier way)
I am also making the dialer that matches.. so a thin orange shadow behind each button... on a black bg
hope this helps..
thanks for the feedback guys.

No. ALS.. Here in the UK.. old customers could have 2 telephone lines/contrcts/numbers on 1 sim.
Line 1 / Line 2
No longer available.. but those of us still got it.. we can keep it. simply press # to switch lines for outgoing calls.
incoming calls come through on both regardless of which is selected.

Good to know.

looks very good!
is it possible to make it in other colours? (e.g. blue, purple, red,...)
all in all I like the look of your theme
yeh ! A blue or purple version would be awesome
It isn't a real theme. I have make some changes so as we have better looking
at our backgrounds. You can use it with all your wallpapers.
When we have the same background at all the Tabs, there is a problem if we use colored wallpapers or photos.
The problem has to make with the icons because they are black and look very bad.
I found a very simple solution for that. I made 50% transparent all the icons so as they look little darker than the color which has our background.
You can use it with any background color, dark or light.
Maybe later I make them real crystal, but need a lot work and I have not so match time these days.
If you like my fonds you can find them here (Thanks to Onkolog)

See the screen shots to understand more what I mean because my English don't help me.
last update 07/04/09
I have add at the People Tab the bigger transparent icons.
So I changed the CAB. Download the new one.
very nice! does this include the font used for the titles (e.g., Weather)? if not, what is the font name and how does one install to their device? also, when you press one of the transparent icons (like the call mobile button on the people page) does it change so you know it's been pressed? thanks!
Hi nanoo-eg
Please put your Picture in your Post.
The link is really bad. I don't know the others, but with me, I can't see it.
This's your second thread with I would like to see the picts.
Thanks,
KCJ
works & looks very nice on my device! i like the way they're in the background. in case you plan to refine, i'd like to share with you my observations for the people page: there are some people icons that aren't transparent depending upon the type of numbers (mobile, home) and the number of contact items (e.g., mobile, email, home). for example, if a person has only a mobile number, manila uses different (larger) icons for the mobile and text icons. neither icon is transparent. also if a person has a mobile, home and work number, and an email address, the work number icon is not transparent, but the others are transparent. hope this helps! your time, effort and contributions are very much appreciated!
looks great.does your slider work with the stock tab?mine does the ugly double icon thing! if yes can i have it.

Yes there is problem. It happens because I made my tests with a contact which has 4 icons (mobile-home-sms-mail). I will fix it right now and I 'll give new CAB

I am sorry but I am not sure if I understand you well.
Like I write at the first post it isn't a real theme.
Just I made the icons which there are on every TAB to be transparent so as every wallpaper you use, looks better because original icons have black background around them. (You must use the same wallpaper for all Tabs. If your wallpaper it is black you don't need to install this cab). But if you use a photo like a background, you need the transparency.
For example I changed to tranparency at Music Tab, the 4 icons play, pause, preview song, next song. The same I made for all the Tabs.
I don't know if I answer at your questions.
Thanks a lot, will try to use it.
This was were i was looking for, thx!
Hey guys i don't know if this has been posted yet, but i surfed around and couldn't get any info.
I edited a couple pictures off my comp to use them as background and now i realized for bright color'ed back grounds (ie. blue/white) they blend right in with the main screens *White font color, ya you know the clock etc..
it would help if we can set these color to black/blue/deep blue etc. vice versa, suprisingly htc never thought of this? or am i missing something here =/
changing themes don't seem to be doing much
FONTs....
System and TF3D are available and works from other devices.
Godzon has a nice selection but not all of his include system fonts.
Search for others....Install, if no likey...uninstall
Hello,
I really like this board, found a lot of help and great stuff here, so I wanted to give something back... now here's a little contribution from mine.
I really like Max Manila, but none of the notification icons set I found really pleasured me... so I searched the net for free PNG-icons and found a lot of cool stuff... stunning, that people are giving such great work for free... so none of these icons are my own work, I just downloaded and modified them a little to fit Max Manila.
1.) Office-style icons, transparent background, 128x128 pixel
Icons are taken from this set, credits for the icons go to Custom Icon Design.
2.) Office-style icons, semi-transparent background, 128x128 pixel
Icons are taken from this set, credits for the icons go to Custom Icon Design.
Background taken from this set, credits go to borncold @ deviantART; just a bit modified by myself.
3.) Office-style icons, solid background, 128x128 pixel
Icons are taken from this set, credits for the icons go to Custom Icon Design.
Background taken from this set, credits go to borncold @ deviantART; just a bit modified by myself.
How-To:
Just unzip the files and copy them into the \Windows-folder of your device - or use them with MaxTTM.
Note:
Due to the position of the notification digits, these icons are made for Max Manila 2.7 (and onwards?); I think, they will work with 2.6 and downwards as well, but it won't fit exactly...
So, hope you enjoy my little contribution!
rave on!
P.S. Though I'm using a Topaz, I think, this thread fits better here than in the equivalent section in the Topaz-board...
Update January 1st, 2010
Updated the transparent version a little bit, added versions with semi-transparent and solid background. Enjoy and a happy new year!
Awesome! Thanks!
