Hi everyone!
I got my Find 7 about 5 days ago, bought a flip-case etc.
Everytime I flip the case on the phone to lock it, a wallpaper I'd never apply shows up.
Is there a way to edit the wallpaper?
If I have to get root acces, that's no problem, I already rooted my Find 7.
Maybe there's a path were I can edit the image file manually or something, I dont' know...
Here's a picture of what I meant:

Any help is appreciated of course!
Have a nice day/night.

Hi everybody,
I want to use a picture as wallpaper in my Qtek 9000..
But there is a problem: the lines between the Today plugins!!
I solved DEACTIVATING all today plugin!!
But i can't belive that i can't ERASE that damned lines!
Well: i tryed Wisbar Advanced desktop... but it slows the PPC..
I would write to Microsoft.. Because i HATE that lines..
I could use Pocket Plus.. But seems it crashes PDA..
Can you suggest me something similar.. Maybe freeware..
Please help me..
Bump and ditto, easy solution?
I too would like to know how to get rid of those stupid lines, it just makes any background image look crap.
I have managed to edit the Tomtom logo and made it smaller so it takes up less space but the annoying lines have to go.
If anyone out there knows a solution it would be greatly appriciated.
how did u edit the tomtom logo?
You could try changing the colour of the lines. Google for Tweaks2k2 and you should find a great tool you can download and use 3 times before needing to purchase it. BTW, the tool does a lot more than give you the ability to change the colour of the lines. This is a must-have app.
I can't belive that the only solution is to change the line's color!
I want to see the picture of my girlfriend WITHOUT that UGLY and STUPID lines!
No other phone in the world doesn't show a full picture!
I think that the solution is to write to Microsoft.. I can't belive it.. But there is no other solution!
They have to chang Today.. It's too old.. Based on old Pocket PC (In portrait)..
Maybe i posted in a wrong room?
on a old jornada I had I recall an app that had this as an option, so its possible, there must be a way to do it, maybe just replacing the image used for the lines with a blank one?, Im no coder or anything like that, just throwing out an idea, this is a developer forum, maybe someone could throw together a quick and dirty hack or maybe a reg hack, somebody help us out, I hate those lines too.

This issue has come up in several threads. The only way I know to "get rid of" them is to change the color to match the background by using a Theme Generator program.
I found links to the SHMetrics value in the SHELL32.EXE code of wm2003se. It is all done by COMMCTRL.DLL and te lines are called TodayLVItemLine2 and TodayLVItemLine1. But this is very undocumented. The problem is that you need to reboot every time you change something in the SHMetrics value.
See this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44154
I am still fiddling around with various values of this SHMetrics value. Problem is that I realy don't know what the effect is on what GUI element.
Perhaps one day...
Cheers
Im running wisbar advance 2 and I average 2-8% cpu (overclocked to 264) with it running but I dont see a setting to remove the lines, correct me if Im wrong...
I wish wisbar had different edge/gprs icon support, edge is spotty in many areas I frequent, so I trey to dl when im in an edge supporting cell...even if it just showed the actual icon like "notifications"

to change the colour of the tomtom sign just go to paint and zoom in and change the colour to your desire. i have made mine deep red. and to change the size go into photoshop and change the image size to a smaller size.
Once you have the one you want just go to the tomtom folder that should be on the root of your device and replace the file ttoday.bmp with the one you have. You might want to back up the original ttoday.bmp file just in case.
Once replace you don't even need to soft-reset. just go into settings-today and check to see if tomtom is selected to appear on your today screen. once you tap on the tick in the corner your picture will be updated.
Il try to attach the ones i have done but this is my first time attaching an image so it might not work.
As for the crappy lines on the screen.....Is there not a way just to make the lines invisible???

I want to change the input box on the Internet tab to have a clear border. I searched through the Manila files, but only found the input box itself and not the border. Can somebody help me about this?
I've the same think than you with Programs
I'ld like not have the black margin...
-Could someone help me ?
=(
I think you have to edit 6b23369e_manila and 496e9ec3_manila to get clear launch icons in the start menu. I'm using Dutty v3.3 btw.
It worked for me, i have attached the 2 files you will need to get launch icons without border. First backup your files! Disable Manila copy the files into your Windows folder and restart Manila. I don't have a Rom with launch tab, but it should work for you also. Pleas add a screen shot if everything is ok ^^... if not...DON'T ADD a SCREEN SHOT !!!
So... I won't add the screenshot =O
I have white areas with a zoomed icon instead of each launch icons. Sorry =S
(I'm also seeking for my part)
Zoomed icons are always good !! Can you please upload your original files, maybe there is some difference between our manila files, and i can fix it.
PrgBakTrns
I've found that wich permit to have a Transparent Background for Icons on Programs Tab
Download here
I'll do not create a new topic for that , and i still seeking for the adress box on internet tab...
@Ikkari : I joined them. =)
PS : I don't know why but I have an extension on the copied manilla files (.$8d & .$85)
You uploaded my files ^^ .... Maybe the extension is the problem that you got white areas with a zoomed icons, because Manila don't find the files. Anyhow i am glad that you found a solution, my icon margins are complete clear.
Damn Resco Explorer =P... I've moved the originals (and not copy) to restore my manilla then PrgBakTrns has overwritten them =S But that's OK ! My matter is solved ! Stay your problem. =(
Sorry for the inconvenience of my english... =$
Nothing still?
Hi guys, this is my first post, firstly I wanted to thank you all for your great advice that I have been reading over the months.
I have applied a wallpaper to my home screen a while ago but I fancied a change. I came to change it start>settings>today then the use this pic as a background tick box at the bottom. I loaded a pic onto the HD from my PC and tried to change the wallpaper to that one, but it won't, no matter what I do it stays the same. I don't even get the default HTC black one back.
I have a stock HTC rom, can any one help? Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks again
Go to Settings-->Wallpaper (in the settings manila tab).
If the picture is in your My Documents\My Wallpapers folder on your phone the pictures will then show up. If it is stored elsewhere eg Storage Card, select the More (left soft button) and browse to where the picture is saved and click on the photo you wish to use.
You are wanting to show the picture on your TF3D Home tab and not on the Today tab.
Thanks very much for your reply, sorted now, a simple oversight on my part, I feel so stupid!

Hello mate.. i just wondering how can i change back my Home screen with the original HTC black theme.. it seem my fon doesnt change back to the original one.. pls help.. TQ
Problem solve.. tq..
Today I got my new Galaxy S2 and I tested some other wallpapers. But then I wanted to set the stock wallpaper back and it's nowhere to be found. The wallpaper I'm looking for is a view of the earth from space, where the earth itself (the continents) is made up of all sorts of vibrant colours (I don't know how to describe it in another way, it's like very big and colourful fireworks )
I have searched on Google, but couldn't find an example of it. The phone came with one of the latest firmwares, I9100CEKI2. I hope someone can help me out, I really liked that wallpaper. It's really strange, normally it should be possible to just set the original wallpaper back, isn't it? There are three categories to choose from, Background Gallery, Gallery and Live Backgrounds. The first has 5 backgrounds, but not the one I'm looking for, Gallery is still empty and it's not a live background, so it isn't there either.
I've already tried downloading and extracting an original firmware, but I have no tools to open the .img files from the update and I am a bit new to all this Samsung stuff. I've also tried looking around in all sorts of directories on the phone, like /system , /sys and so on, but I couldn't find it (and maybe it is inside some .apk file and I won't find it in a million years)
So if someone knows which background I'm talking about, please post it here or send me (a link to) the file. Thanks in advance!
Even factory reset doesn't bring the wallpaper back
I have the same situation??? How to back default wallpaper?
My husband thought it would be funny to change my world/globe lock screen wallpaper that I have had on my phone for nearly two years and now I can't find it anywhere. Have I lost it completely??

Do you know specifically how he changed it? Sometimes it gets overwritten, (and it's gone), and sometimes it gets renamed by a wallpaper app, in order to set a different one in the same folder. Use a root browser and go to /data/system/users/0, and see what files are there. If there's one called 'wallpaper' with no extension, add .jpg to it, and open it, and see if it's your old wallpaper or your current one. If there's a file called 'wallpaper.bak', or something like that, its probably the one you're looking for.
