Okay i'm a complete newbie to all this stuff.. and have tried reading through several posts but i really don't get what to do because theres too many different things to do! i just want the phone to not have the o2 layout and instead that nice black layout... without the phone going really slow (because i've read when you change the theme everything gets slow? )
much help would be appreciated! i.e. what i need to download and how i install it...
thanks a lot guys
to change the theme to black you need to change 2 things -
1. the windows mobile theme (a .tsk file) to complete black (either you have it on your phone, or search for it, or say, i'll post it)
and
2. the touchflo3d theme. for that you need to install tf3d config on your phone (you'll find one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405749 ) and download a black theme (.theme file) or any other you want, e.g. from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409901 or you can just search the forums for more themes...
but i understand your desperation, the o2 theme (i have german o2) really is ugly
umm i would be greatful if you could upload the windows black theme
and also how do i install these things? like what steps do i take...? do i use a program...? and where do i put the config file.. the theme file.. and windows mobile theme etc... i'm soo clueless
and so if i do all these... it'll look like the original HTC diamond and not the crap o2 layout?
thanks a lot in advance
I have done this to my Ignito and it slows it down a bit. But ha its better than the poo o2 put on it. o2 have always F****D up good HTC phones by putting rubbish software or themes on them. God knows what makes them do it.

see post #2
-the windows .tsk theme (attached) you put in the windows folder on your device and change the theme in start->settings->today (on first tab)->htc black (newly added)->ok
-the tf3d config tool needed to change the theme - put the .cab (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=102057&d=1217092240) anywhere on the device and run it from there to install
-to install tf3d theme, follow instructions from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2428664&postcount=1 (the black theme is also in that post)
I agree about O2 ROMs - buggy as hell and slow too. I flashed my Artemis with the original HTC ROM and it went from a crash a day to no crashes in a year. I'm now looking at the HTC Diamond too - or the O2 ignitus at least (O2 describe this on their website as a phone manufactured by O2!) - has anybody laoded the HTC ROM over the O2 one, and are there any guides to follow?

If you have loaded a a original htc rom on you artemis then this is pretty much the same. there are hundreds of guides. Install hard spl and then flash using ruu. and about the ignito being manufactured by O2 i dont know but it is the diamond DIAM100 and yes i have tried my self to flash 1 and works with no problems. for guides go to rom development section and check the stickies.

I sat and looked at my XDA ignito and thought 'wow that looks crap and tacky' and within 25 mins it looks awesome. thanks for the posts My phone is now black and sexy =]

*edit, tried another tf3d (think it was tlr.manilla)

Any ideas, looked and looked and searched ...

Anyone have a cab for the O2 xda exec phone skin? I had that rom on my xda and upgraded to the new TMO Dutch rom and the phone skin really sucks bad, I loved the O2 one - Can anyone help me out???
I bet alot of people would switch to this one from the tmo one. Again thanks and this site is great. FISH
Does anyone have the bmp files for the O2 phone dialer??? I know how to upgrade it but I do not know how to extract them from an old ROM.
So does anyone know how to extract files like the ".bmp" icons or images from a ROM that is not installed on teh phone?
Here you go.
V
Universal's extended rom. You want the file signed_UNI_o2AUI4_build76.CAB for the skin.

V
You guys ROCK!!! Thanks for the quick response to you V and to Buzz for the PM help. FISH
I would like that skin too..but after running the first CAB file my dialer screen is somewhat..corrupted.. Was wondering if there's a way to restore it or any instructions on how to use these files?
namura: did you run the wizard version, or the universal one?
V
I ran the first one..judging from the outcome..I guess it's the Wizard's one..
I ran this CAB file:
PhoneLight_Skin_O2_WWE_1005.CAB
Hi Namura, my apologies, I clearly confused by posting both the wizard and the universal (although I labelled them in the description section).
Anyway, you want the Universal skin from here:

hi vijay555, no worries about it.. I managed to recover from it though..hehe now using the Orange skin..
I am not as successful as i would have hoped extracting these diamond images from this rom. I have copied the windows folder to my pc and was only able to get the htc audio manager skin. The comm manager and calc skins do not appear to be in the root windows.
Perhaps somebody can point me in the right direction or have already extracted these great looking skins.
The dialer is there, but there are many files i hope to get them all. If i manage this i will post them on xda if they are not already. Since its a herald rom and im sure others would appreciate this, that do not own a herald
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407646
i cant post them, if i dont know how to extract them all
i am SURE others would care to have these skins
..::yawn::..
You dont need to poste them because the graphics for this were posted about 3 months ago. Lemme do a search for it..... 1 sec..... that was easy, here it is....

Can a version be made for the Diamond for HD manila?
Another link please !!!!!!
Great post! Beautiful theme. Can you post just the tray icon files or even a .cab? your instructions are very simple I just don't use/need TF3D config. (I've encountered problems with it in the past). I'm running the stock rom with the old animated manila files over the top (could possibly be the cause of my problems but in a give and take between the two, i take animations). Thanks in advance

There's one cab within the archive file you downloaded, which will restore the font back to original. All the info are in the readme file .
Just remove the "\windows\welcomehead.192.png"

Just remove the file "\windows\welcomehead.192.png". Or, create your own Welcome file. Do a google for keyword "welcomehead.192.png" and you should be able to find link to readme on how to create this file.
From my vague knowledge on the ROM image, the original "welcomehead.192.png" shall get reinstate once you remove the money box one follow by a soft reset.
how to remove T-Mobile name. my network is not Tmobile
Where can i find the fonts used in this theme (manilla and windows fonts) ???

Thanks you for your comment

Landscape support?
Sorry, no landscape mode
I will try to use another rom.
I've liked to use "circle" and accelerometre
Theme is fantastic - its true , but it takes a lot of time to translate
Especially if you need to hard reset - everything is lost then.
If any one could post english .cab for this theme please ?
Best regards.
Hello,
Thanks, yes it takes a lot of time to translate but more time to create.
Please don't share .cab if this isn't me that I created it. Respect my work It's non difficult to understand the text
Thanks
Ok. You are doing a great work Eagledig.
We will wait for your .cab
Cheers.
Thanks, When I created the english version, I post here
What? Ive been away for a few months and now Windows Mobile looks like desktop Windows? Can somebody explain to me what is going on?

I have installed wad 2.5, message2reg and mortscript 4.2 cab but than after I want to install your cab it says that installation was unsuccessful!!
I have tried than soft reset and installing again your cab again, but same error!
I had the same problem on the start ( check post 2 ).
It seems that its need wm6.5.
(Please correct me if wrong).
I have tried many roms with this (about 6) and only those with wm6.5 worked fine.
I am using wm6.5 benko's(mine ROM!!
Which version you use v1.0 , 1.5 Ultra Lite, Clean?
BTW any other skin I have tested is working!
I was using your 6.5.3 rom in full version ( i don't remember version).
Sorry but the problem comes from your rom, the .cab files works correctly.
Makes hard reset or change your Rom, my theme work on WM6.1 and WM6.5 without any problem:
My tests : Touch HD, Touch HD2, Diamond 2 and Diamond = work correctly
How it is going on with translating ?
Theme
Followed instructions perfectly, theme installed no problem, edited the text to english perfectly.
Great theme, enjoyed playing with it thanks!, but not practical for everyday use so back to WM6.5 for me
Just got my HD2 and would like to remove/make transparent taskbars and curtains etc...
My question which I have not found an answer to is do I need to SPL, use different ROM etc or can I use the mod cabs on a out of the box handset?
You dont need to flash your device at all to install cab files.
Search for Touch X collection , you 'll found every thing you need
Thanks guys, much appreciated!
