UPDATED:Custom Manila Theme - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I've been searching for awhile for the registry entry that controls the color of the selection highlight when you scroll thru different selections. An example would be when you scroll you start menu or contact and such.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
EDIT: Here is a link to most (all) of the registry entries for theme colors
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WindowsMobile5Colors
Scroll down for Custom Manila cab file

I did this a long time ago with SKTools, but im sorry because dont know the registry key for this.

Thanks for the reply. I've since then managed to find it and was actually looking at the right key all along but for some odd reason my phone would not respond to that particular key change. Finally I decided to cab up the theme and install it with my registry edits and it worked great Now I have a Manila theme without the ugly green highlight. It's grey instead

Bump due to updated info...

You can get those from the HTC Home Customizer app but I will zip them up for you and attach them to this post.

thanks! I don't think they came with the version of HHC I have.

lllboredlll: may i ask what font you are using, and more importantly, how you were able to make the start menu font non-bold?

I'm pretty sure you download it within HHC. That's how I get it now even though I have the file on my PC. Are you running HHCv10final?

I extracted an OEM from PPCGeeks OEM package and tweaked it. The font setup is the same as it was in the manila theme pack but I changed the color.
Other than that, here's a link to the thread that explains some font changes.

Not sure what I have. I'm almost positive it's final though since it's in the PPCGeeks kitchen. But thanks for posting it! It wasn't there.

That one is the final version. If you goto the download tab, click connect to download server. Once connected select Icons from the drop down menu then scroll down. It's right under all of the baseball sets.

[THE] TP2 TF3D Neon Tabs - v1.2a [10-06-2009] - Coming back - Soon

TF3D Neon Tabs Theme
Still development in progress but so far I have managed to get the actual TF3D tabs to be in a type of "Neon" scheme.
I will be working heavily on this trying to go through all icons in TF3D making them Neon so there will be many updates to follow making this simply perfect.
Feedback more than welcome and opinions probably will be worked in.
Please note, people have confirmed this works on....
-- Touch Pro 2
-- Touch Diamond 2
-- Touch HD
If you do try this on any other phone, please let me know the outcome, I should be able to adapt the files to work on any phone in theory
The Cab file is fully un-installable so if you don't like them, just remove the program in Remove Programs and you're back to normal.
Screen Shots
Updates
Version 1.2a - 10-06-2009
- Changed some colours around to make it view better
- Added different options for different people, plain, transparent curtain, transparent slider, transparent curtain & slider (can't please everyone)
Version 1.2 - 10-06-2009
- Created the 4 icons in the people secions
All People - Favourites - Updates - Call History
- Also added Transparent bottom curtains and transparent slider so no need for extra installations.
Version 1.1 - 09-06-2009
- Created tab icons when icon is not selected
Version 1.0 - 09-06-2009
- Created Tabs for following Tabs when selected...
Home - People - Messages - Email - Calendar - Internet - Stock - Camera - Music - Weather - Programs - Settings
Nice work. Thanks.
Just updated with Version 1.1 which has all tabs coloured now even when not selected

There is no need to extract the file, it's a cab anyway.
Just copy the file to your phone and open it -it installs itself.
Beautiful!
Thankz!

I'm going to be working on the lot in 'All People' tonight, so hopefully should have an update later.
Also going to be working on the actual button on the base, any ideas from anyone how you'd want it to look?

The slide part, the button that you hold to move and slide, the "block". Can't think what its called but its the rectangle block that you slide from left to right.
Ahh ok, you mean the slider .
I'm already using Lucarp's transparent slider.
I've attached it, so you can have a look for yourself what it does.

Here's a screenshot of the slider if you don't want to install it

Looks good, I want it to be a bit narrower though I think, not 100% sure yet, haven't made my mind up. Think I'll have a play around and might incorporate it in my icon set.
Update
Updated icons to include people section and also added transparent slider and transparent bottom curtains in so no need for extra installs.
Nice Icon's
Very nice work!...Would love to use these with my Touch HD!!

I can do them for the Touch HD too if needed. I just need the manila files uploading somewhere if someones prepared to do it?
Have you tried it on the HD? It might just work...?
I will try them out tomorrow and give you an update! Again, they look great! Cheers to your fine work!
Hi there, just want to say it works on my Touch HD Unfortunately I am using a chinese rom (Devilstone v3.7 with TouchFLO 34 2.1.38158.2), so I am not too sure if it will work with other cooked romr, just give it a try I guess~
Here are the screenshots:
This is just the theme itself (with Lucarp78TS.cab)
And this is the transparent both cab (I uninstall Lucarp78TS.cab)
Looks awesome on my TP2. Thanks dude, good job.

[Manila] More Buttons in Program tab

Is there a way to get more Buttons in the Program tab?
I've tryed to add more button folders in registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher]
But the result is,
there are more buttons, but You can't use them
so is there something else I have to change?
Edit:
Added a Screenshot,
-> thats What I got.
but I can't add programs to the last 3 lines.

Wondering
I added the registry entries to allow for more, this all seemed to work, clicked on a button to add the appropriate new link, comes back, no icon. I go into Diamond TF3D Config and can see that the entries are in there, but TFlow3D wont action or show the icons - very confusing, there must be something we are missing and my Swiss German is sadly lacking - any ideas?

4 Rows in 6.5 start menu

I have just installed the official 6.5 WWE upgrade. I want to change the honeycomb start menu to show 4 or 5 rows instead of 3. I have installed a couple of options from searching here but they do not not seem to work. Can anybody help?
yeah i too would also like to know this, having 4 icons per row looks much better in my opinion, and doesn't take as long to scroll to the bottom!
Same here, anyone??
Here! These are all some I have collected over here in this forum. Enjoy.
LCW is 5 columns in a row.
Any way we can get links to the threads to see previews on what these will look like??

BharS StartMenu Grid WVGA.cab - Is exactly what we were looking for, 4 icon wide start menu!

You have to SR after install in order for it to work.
Ark and LCW are honeycomb versions. Others do not have honeycomb in them.
Sorry no patience for screenshots yet...maybe when i get more time...

Is it possible to remove the Start Menu Wall paper totally, I like to have a plain black background. I have been searching and googling for it, but it seems that so far none has posted anything on it. Not for the TF3D2, but just only the Start Menu background.
Can it be done?

Background for all and transparent slider tab for T-Mobile 6.5 rom

all i want is to have the same background on all tabs and to have a transparent slider.
I've been looking for this like a crazy person and tried at least 5 different cabs and none work.
Any one can help me out
Hello
I think i can help you.I was searching for background on all tabs by yesterday
Try hd wall.You will get a result better than you want.
1-Just drag and drop your desired wallpaper for portrait mode
2-Then press landscape on the ta-op then drag and drop a wallpaper fits your landscape mode.
3-Click config and choose your appropriate Manila version then come back
4-Click create cab then choose both "include portrait wallpaper" and "include landscape wallpaper" then press convert button.That conversion porcess will take approximately 2 minutes.
5-Don't forget to consider where you want your cab file to be created checking the option on the top right.
6-And give a name in application title
7-You are ready to go.Press create cab and your cab will be created to the folder you chose so transfer it to your ppc and install then restart.This solved my problem.
And here is the cab to give your slider glass look

1) Is the cab I attached below one of the ones you've already tried?
2) If you've followed the steps above to install one of the HDWalls wallpapers, and it appears everywhere but your home tab, then you need to just follow the instructions HERE (it's a common thing for people to have to apply those steps when using HDWalls wallpapers)
whenever i've tried to install that BG for all pages wvga.cab file, it messes up my clock display. the clock get's huge & i can even read it. am i doing something wrong? i'm on Verizon & running Windows Mobile 6.5.

Change banner text

Looking to change the text that displays in the banner where it would say AT&T 3G? I've seen it done just now can't find it.
Any help appreciated, thanks.

Check out the screenshot below...see the custom title in the top left under the start menu, is that what you're talking about? If so, the attached cab is what you'll need to put your own custom title there...just install and run it, it's nothing but a simple text box where you can enter whatever you're heart desires

Check out my post 2 above yours there... the look you're seeing is mostly due to a theme called "Dark Revised" by s2w, and it's available on that page I linked to along with several others he's done. The taskbar icons at the top are from Spike's popular MicNeo set, varient_V2 to be exact, I've attached the cab for that below.

That is a feature you can edit on the energy Rom. If you are using the one with cookie home tabs, all you have to do is go to the cookie home tab editor and go to advanced, at the very bottom is a choice to change the text that appears in that area. Just click on that box, and it will open the editor to change that text.
Hope that helps.
