Lucky!
I just did it by a small chance!!!!
You should not use manila editor, just copy the new PNG to your device
for example: windows\glo.png
edit 27c65cbd_manila
<Banner
DefaultImagePath="\Windows\glo.png"
SelectedImagePath="\Windows\glo.png"
then make a soft restart, DONE
I have made a cab for the globe, maybe somebody need it
BTW,my globe should be fixed~~~and I think u can make it better~
hey, the vodaphone doesnt have an internetgraphic, any wsy this can be programmed in for aesthetics?

Call me thick, but I installed the cab above, and nothing. What do I need to do to replace the web n walk icon I currently have with the standard HTC globe?

I'm not an expert... Would love to have this (with black background) as my icon...

I have made it in PS by modifying/editing original opera logos. Below I've attached the .psd with all the layers intact for people who want to edit it in Photoshop for other background colors in TF3D.

Some help to add this as my default icon in TF3D would be much appreciated...

Oops!!! I missed this... I need to ask a question though, does it need to be a specific size??? Or will the replaced image center automatically??? Also if I want to use the third one I posted (which is a trasparent png) will it show up as transparent in TF3D?
Well I changed the code in 27c65cbd_manila and pasted my glo.png in windows directory... After two softreset nothing have still changed!! It's the original globe still
Also I've checked the 27c65cbd_manila in windows directory with Resco explorer to see that the change really sticked and indeed the...
DefaultImagePath="\Windows\glo.png"
SelectedImagePath="\Windows\glo.png"
...is still there!
Now I'm confused... I have a swedish version of diamond so do I need to edit a different file??? I see in 27c65cbd_manila there's a line that says Text="Launch Browser", in my swedish internet tab there's the text "Öppna webbläsare" which means launch browser in english so maybe I need to find the ******_manila that contains the "Öppna webbläsare" to edit the correct file???
There are tons of these manilla files
Tray this one. ;-)
Its grey one.
EDIT: Sorry, its not realy what you want.
Can be deletet, if you want.

Alright... I noticed I had to edit the xml in application data instead. Now it works
Matches the youtube logo colors aswell
Well I've done a small pack for those who want it...
It includes, Opera TF3D Globe, Selected Globe + a new loading screen...

HELP !!
I am working on some focus color theme cabs and have a odd bug when using the method to change the opera globe focus color as directed in this thread - any help - here is my request from that thread :
and to see an example please look at the opera focus image from this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3070784&postcount=13
I used the method of changing the xml in '27c65cbd_manila' manila file in notepad to point to a new png in the windows folder to change the focus on the opera globe...which worked (instead of when you directly edit the opera focus manila file - which makes it turn to a blank white rectangle)...however now the 'Launch Browser' words are missing from below the globe.
I am not a manila editing expert so I am confused - where are the words stored - what file was affected by my change to remove them - in manila file '27c65cbd_manila' there is no mention in the xml of this text ,yet I am assuming my editing of this is what has removed the text...
EDIT I SOLVED IT- I must have removed the text= line from the xml when I was editing it Doh !

just Copy the files to your windows folder on the phone, but be Aware it overwrites the green skin
The red one is really nice, but too bad it doesnt change all the green colors. Would you be able to fix that too? (would be registry settings i guess...?)
Wrather thanks for creating those - glad to be a starter for this

yeah its possible
but we need to know where to change in registry
If I may and can, can you please make one orange/goldish buttons so that it can be used with the Sprint theme, which can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=419799
If difficult and time consuming, then don't mind the request. Tnx.
Too bad the OP did not found the solution to replace the remaining green back grounds. I used the Red skin for a time and was looking forward to find an update.
Hope Wrather will come back
Hi
How do you update the files in the windows folder, tried with file explorer but access was denied, probably because they are being used and could not see the window folder via active sync?
Help Please

This MIGHT be good looking with the V2 Gold theme... otherwise it will look rather funny hehe
can somebody give me the link to learn how to do registry edits. i have downloaded total commander, but could not get to the roots to change the settings, which many of the post in this forum tells, to improve performance and the like..... then i bought resco file explorer with registry edits thinking total commander does not do the job as it a free software, but resco also does the same thing. can someone post some tutorials.. pls. just wanting to try many of the hacks and roms available...
if this is inapporiate in this forum, pls delete this thread...

Thanks a lot, i thought that this thread it was no compatible with the Manila 2.1 but there is no problem, thanks again
Ok, first sorry for posting this question, and I did search and found that the information is some what broken up and it confused me. Sorry I'm not a developer so the lingo is way far advanced.
But this is what I've gathered and done.
-I took an app that I wanted to edit. I got the images and did my PS CS4 editing to my liking and saved them.
-I did the draw9patch and manage to save them in a folder and then I put the correct names on the pngs with the 9 still at the end of the file name.
-I got lost with step no.6 of one of the threads talks about "eclipse" and thats where I'm lost.
I don't know what the heck its talking about workspace. I don't know what to do from here. Can somebody please explain it to me in laymans term. thank you.
You need to load up the sdk, eclipse is part of that.

I have the SDK installed but do I go to the SDK Manager or to the tools? if I go to the tools which app do I open? this is where I'm stuck at
Did you try this?

hey brut is there a video or post relating to the steps on editing .9.png's using apkmanager or apktool? ive been looking into the draw9patch thing but everything i run into is an old post and i guess thats what you saying here. i was a total noob and now ive got down using theme porter, update.zip maker for modding stuff but ive only taken the png plunge seeing that most people are saying you gota be a pro to edit .9's and xml and all that. im fully capable of getting it im just not finding the right tutorial and info. any direction would be much appreciated
also im trying to mod my phone dialer (attached) is that something a semi-new modder can handle. eg-changing the background from black to white...the orange numbers from orange to white? just a shot in the dark you know
