I have downloaded some of the focus color change files from XDA and found that they were very incomplete, missing many of the other 'green' elements in vanilla black manila, so I made a new one, which includes the focus elements for the landscape icons too. It also has a reg edit to change the enlarged start menu and task manager highlights to gray.
PLEASE NOTE THESE FOCUS FILES ARE INTENDED TO BE USED ON STOCK HTC TF3D MANILA - I cannot gurantee how they will work with Sprint TF3D etc
This is a new thread tidying up my original one with reserved posts below to add the additional colours and images (and as a Canadian I am going to spell colour 'correctly' !)
I have Light (powder) Pink and Blue, Red and Orange so far. Charcoal, purple, light yellow, hot pink, light green, blue and more will follow over the next few weeks.
I will also be seeing if there is an easy way to change the focus colours in the HTC Camera and Album apps
Full theme creators feel free to use my files, though please a) PM if you going too, and b) credit me somewhere
Please report any bugs glitches to me and I will fix them. I am aware that some of my colours have lost the 'gloss' look of the highlights, I will work to return that more in my future colours
EDIT small fix in red focus for opera highlight red to match other reds
EDIT I will be fixing up a few pixel errors (can only be seen if you look closely) on some of the coloured button icons
EDIT Purple focus is updated slightly, the highlight on the opera focus has been toned down
EDIT I am still having problems with the focus on the opera globe - I have removed carbon and aqua cabs for now until I solve the issue. If anyone downloaded them and used them can you please report either by posting here, or by PM, if the focus on the opera globe worked for you.
EDIT Carbon and Aqua focus v2 uploaded with opera globe bug fixed
EDIT Dark Green and Dark Blue focus, see cab files in post below screen shots
EDIT **NEW** Burgundy Focus, see cab files and screens in post #6
THIS WRAPS UP MY FOCUS WORK FOR REGULAR MANILA. I am now working on porting these to Rhodium/Topaz Manila, and making sure I include all the new highlight and focus bits in the new Manila and the Rhodium finger menu etc. These versions will be CFC compressed
I am also creating mini cabs to change the colour of the tab behind the icons on the lower curtain, if you want that to match my focus colours
*UPDATED* Some new colours added, see post 6 for the Gold one
Orange screen shots...for other colours I will just be posting two screens so you can see what the colour looks like on a dark and light BG
Here are the shots from the additional colours. Some will not be showing the optional tab colour
reserved for future additional files

Hi, I currently have the Dark Red theme (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2560150&postcount=661), but I am trying to add all the little things such as selection colors.
I've extracted the Comm Manager selection buttons from the Xen Red theme (found here: http://www.archy.net/2008/11/15/xen-theme/), I've attached them here if anyone else wants them.
What I'm looking for is the selection for the Comm Manager in this type of red. Here are a few screenshots of my current red selection. If possible, I would like the Comm Manager to match.
Thanks!
Here is my current Comm Manager selection. I would like it to match the images above.
nice thanks for making the red.

the comm and audio manager focus files are not 'manila' files - they are simply png's in your windows folder on the device (at least they are on my ROM), so just changing the manila files doesn't change everything. Here are the file names that you need to edit

It seems like for example on the audio manager you have the highlight is the dark red, yet the buttons are a brighter red, and on the comm manager the highlight is grey and the selector is red...
try copying those files from your phone and opening them in PS and you should be able to copy the colour levels from an image that is the correct red and apply it to the others.
If you are sucessful uploading a zip to this thread with the above files in the dark red would be great
I was probably going to be getting to making a dark red version or my cab, but not for a while
BTW what thread did you get the new task bar icons from etc
Hi, like the idea, but is it possible to go back if it doesn't fit me anymore ? Is there a way to uninstall the cab and restore orignal color ?
Thanx.

you just uninstall the cab and restart TF3d in the today screen (or soft reset) and you are back to whatever your ROM has stock
EDIT there is now a small fix in red focus for opera highlight red to match other reds v2 cab uploaded
great job! I've experinced here that all focus cabs arent completed. I just instaled your file and i am suprised.
unfortunately i dont find a colour for me. Would be great to see complete blue focus, not Light Blue.

No formating, just open and edit, if you change the one layer....of course additional layers need to be merged etc, then just save it again

I backed up ALL my .png and .bmp files from my \Windows\ directory onto my computer, and I'm not sure which files are relevant to the Comm Manager selection image. I looked at all the files you mentioned above, but many of them are different icons. The only ones that seem like they may work are P_Button_Down.png and P_Button_Focus.png.
On another note, I can't find the red selection images I currently have on other areas of the phone. Is there another directory I should look in?

It's done ...
With the help of gordic, wrather, Seelenfresser, BenThon and all the other thread-readers I made an update of my "Black & Red" and after that I was able to convert it completey to "Black & Blue"
"Black & xColor V2.1"
Until now there's only a Basic-Edition of each color version. The original HTC Black Theme has to be installed on your diamond before you are installing one of my themes.
(Didn't try other themes as base but I think it would look a little bit funny *g*)
So far I tested the theme with Mossis ROM 2.1 (Base-ROM: 1.93.x).
Files:
Basic_Black_xxx_V2_x.zip
All files are in one folder inside the zip-file, so they can be copied to the windows-directory off the reel.
Basic_Black_xxx_V2_x_separated.zip
All files are in separated folders inside the zip-file, so you can choose which files you copy to the windows-dir.
Instruction:
Unpack the *.zip-file you want and read the installation.txt.
(If something is wrong or you need some help please let me know!)
Changelog:
V2_1 [17.09.2008]
- two new color-changed images of the camera
- newer *.tsk-files
I'm not so happy with the calendar-icon, but until now I didn't get a better version of it. Maybe someone else could help to make it more similar to the other icons?
#1
(reserved for further update etc.)
the file is too big ?
try with rapidshare.com
[good work!]
[thanks!]
That's strange because the file isn't bigger than 8MB (that should be the maximum file size of zip-files).
But now I've uploaded it with rapidshare
Very nice work!
Will download....
Does this also change the today screen and other non TouchFlo elements like buttons, captions etc. (globally of course)?

I think it does because I changed also many graphics that have nothing to do with TF3D, for example the Screen if you connect your diamond with USB etc.
And there is also the vodafone.tsk, which makes the "menu marker" red for example.
@NisseDILLIGAF
Thank you!
nice job thanx
Thanks for the theme.
You were faster than me in changing everything green into red. One thing I could not find in your basic zip file was a red highlighted internet globe.
Thanks to the help of NisseDILLIGAF who pointed me in the right direction I was able to change it. Now the theme is perfect!
Win refuses to overwrite the manila-files. Could somebody make from this a real theme-file. The red is amazing color with black.
Theme File
just installed, the red & black looks so cool!
GREAT WORK...thank you
really fine themes, one of the best i tried today
but a few questions:
i made a roll back to my standard theme (with TF3D config 0.6.7) but now i have some graphic problems, e.g. TF-volume is still red instead of original green, also the buttons for choosing between ActiveSync- and external drive-mode if connected to PC. And the (green) button beside the active keyboard, if i want to change half to full or phone etc., is fully lost
Are there any options to get the old status back without a hardreset?
thank you for your answer
ok, ive tried this, but im not satisfied, altough i would love to have a black red theme.
What would make this theme perfect for me is, that it should be exactly as the original touchflo, htc black theme, only where default theme has green colour, it should have red colour, that would be perfect theme for me.
also, i restored default theme, and still i have in volume control red coloured bars, which i can't restore to defaults, which is not ok.
i tried to delete manila files with resco explorer, but says i cant delete files, because they are in the memory. Any suggestion how to do this ?
thank you

Ok, solved it by myself. There is a little bug in TF3D Config-Tool, which forgot to delete three files after choosing a Theme-Restore:
- HTCUSBtoPCPopUp.png
- SIPMenu_SelectIcon.bmp
- HTCVolumeControl.png
After deleting these file and automatic replacement of the original TF-Files by WM (soft-reset!) everything looks ok again
THANKS ! i am happy again
dunno where i saw it, but is there a possibility, to change background on all menus ?
Great theme! Love balck&red
Only issue I have is cannot see the writings in the manilla settings/sound properties, it's only me? something wrong?
Thanks
Black font on black background, got this Prob, too.
If you highlight it with the red "Cursor" you can read it...
Choosing new programs has this small prob also

Very nice job Elvelynn..
maybe we could work together to make others colors ?
I have downloaded some of the focus color change files from XDA and found that they were very incomplete, missing many of the other 'green' elements in vanilla black manila, so I made a new one, which includes the focus elements for the landscape icons too. It also has a reg edit to change the enlarged start menu and task manager highlights to gray.
I could make other colors on request.
EDIT the communications menu is NOT orange if you use this with stock HTC black theme (but for some reason on the Alltel theme I tested it with it was), I did not check this, I guess the manila file names on Fuze manila comm menu are different. I did catch little things like the audio progress bar etc, but I will update soon to fix the Comm menu, with new colors too...
EDIT 2 HELP REQUESTED. I check the manila files I changed and all the correct ones for the comm manager are there, yet it is still stuck on green, at least with the Wildberry Manila landscape cab that I used..any of the more experienced people care to help me figure out why this is
EDIT 3 I figured it out I think - I am running a custom comm manager from my Juicy CDMA rom - so I have included those files in a revised version that is now 100% all green graphics to orange
EDIT 4 I have also added an optional orange tab cab file for the lower scrolling icon area - personal preference if you like this.
EDIT 5 I have fixed the transparency issues on the opera focus so it looks better, not shown in pictures below
EDIT 6 ORANGE CAB IS BUGGED - OPERA HIGHLIGHT IS PINK - Fix coming - and text is missing below opera globe on all colors
EDIT 7 - Text below opera globe is restored and install names bugs of cabs, shade of orange for opera focus are fixed. New files to be posted later tonight (dec 23 08). Red and Charcoal to follow soon.
ADDITIONAL COLORS CAN BE FOUND IN MY ADDITIONAL POSTS IN THIS THREAD
Good job man
Do you have any screens?
Is it for all the green focus elements like call screen, comm manager, settings tab, usb popup screen ?
If so, then it will be nice
i am new to this - so how I capture screens I have to figure out, but yes it does everything that is green in orange - though it is possible I missed something
also any help with the reg settings to get the highlights in the start menu and dialer to go orange through reg settings would be nice - when ever I tried the hex code for orange in the registry the start menu highlight ended up going dark blue
Hmm nice color, it will look nice on black!
I cannot help you with reg settings though.
I will follow this post to see the progress you're making to get it all orange.
Good luck!

Updated files in first post
I took the liberty of doing the all blue one. Let me know if there are any problems.
Thanks !
but the comm manager, audio manager, dialer etc do not use the manila files for the focus colors - they are separate PNGs in the windows folder, or registry edits
Mew request in Red!!

Here is my next color - a very light pink...really on suitable for TF3D themes with a dark font (ie doesn't work too well on my stock HTC black theme)
Again there is separate cab for a pink lower curtain icon tab (NOT SHOWN IN IMAGES BELOW), if you would like that too.
BTW the comm and audio manager focus files are not 'manila' files - they are simply png's in your windows folder on the device, so just changing the manila files doesn't change everything. Here are the file names that you need to edit

Also these files will not change the focus in HTC apps like the camera etc - that is something I will work on eventually.
Note there is no image for opera focus, but bug with no text below globe in v1 light pink cab is fixed, and focus is pink as per the rest of the highlights
Light Blue
As above, Light Blue focus, with separate cab for lower curtain icon tab.
as above bug of no text below opera focus is fixed in v2 file, and name in add remove programs is now correctly saying light blue
Can you please make a black one?

vote for that.
but why not make an app so we can choose differnt colors ?
I am afraid I have absolutely no ability to code....
If some one was to write an app for me that would use the manila files I made - it could be packaged with all the color files I make - perhaps something like TF3d config for colors only - but if they app was to on the fly change the colors that means all the files needed for each color would have to be locally stored on your device, taking up needless space
in the current orange focus cab, the highlight for launch browser is pink not orange on the internet touchflo3d tab. Also, the words "Launch Browser" disappear when you install the cab.
EDIT:
In theory you could have a program that changes the hex values of the each individual pixel in a basic grayscale image by adding XX XX XX to each RGB value for each and have an infinite number of colours.
ackkk ! Thanks for the bug report
I guess I mixed up the pink and orange opera focus files...and I didn't notice the launch browser part until now...I will have to figure out what I did to remove that

I am curious if this would be possible. I doubt that it is, otherwise someone would have likely done this by now, but is it possible to have the windows taskbar (as well as the bar with the softkeys on the bottom) be clear so that you can see the full image in TF3D, with the icons and writing over top of it just like the slider and icons?
I understand that even if this is possible, it could run in to a few problems once you are no longer in TF3D, because from what i understand you can't have the taskbar be different colours depending on what the phone is doing.
Anyways, is it possible, yay or nay?
Nay.
Yay, with wisbar advance.
can??? haw?
Thanks kraize,I have never used wisbar advance, can you actually make it clear or would I have to skin it with the photo?

Not sure about that one. I know that one person skinned it with a photo to make it look clear. I know you can make it very close using transparency. But don't know if it'd be completely clear.
It is possible, there is a program out there called "PMC TodayShrink", im sorry i don't have a link for it, i used it on my kaiser to see the full today screen ( i had a nice rl today theme) but with the kaiser i had enough buttons to simulate the hidden softkeys, but with the diamond this will be something else......
Edit: i think i misunderstood you here, did you mean transparent?
Yeah, transparent. I don't want to remove the taskbar and softkeys, i just want to make the black bars transparent or rather, completely remove any colour so that it just looks like the softkey writing is on the background picture. Exactly like with the no curtains .cab, where the date and the service provider writing now just looks like it is on the background picture.
And i checked out wisbar advance 3.0 and that could potentially work by just creating a skin for it that will just continue the background picture, but it also changes / adds a lot that i don't want.
Bumping this thread....Is it now possible to make the black bars that house the taskbar and softkeys transparent when using TF3D2?
A transparent bar would be awesome, but I realize this isn't as simple.
What I would like to know is how to change the colour of the bars?
I know is is possible, because I've seen WM6.1 themes that has the taskbar coloured.
I would just like to make the bar something a little more exciting than plain black.
EDIT: Nevermind, I found a little program here on XDA that changes the taskbar colour along with some text colours, as well. Really awesome program! It can be found here.

There are a bizillion ways to accomplish this... editors galore... but the simplest way IMO is to use a .tsk file. They're all over, but I have collected several - both shiny bars and flat matte. I've posted my screen to show one shade of purple (I have two)... Just apply your TF3D theme and choose a complimentary tsk file... It will change all of the windows colors (ie, menus, scrollbars, taskbars, etc.), but not those of TF3D. It is my experience that those colors remain true to the theme. However, there are several "focus" cabs around that will change the TF3D selected items colors.
I have several colors in both styles (and a few focus colors)... if there is something in particular you have in mind, let me know and I'll upload it if I have it.

Thanks a lot for the help offer, I must probably have just found the solution when you replied.
Just about anything concerning manila I already have covered and have an extensively modified theme for manila, I'm just waiting for a particular slider that will complete my TF3D theme. Slider
A coloured taskbar was the next step and now I have that covered, as well :-D
I've attached a screenie of my today screen. The clock I made myself; it was supposed to look like carbon, but I failed, sadly. I like your clock, though, but it won't fit with my theme.
Thanks again. I appreciate it a lot and just might call on your help one day :-D
EDIT: Okay, seems I needed your help earlier than I expected :-D
How did you get your "start" text to show "Maureen"? I followed the steps posted at PPCGeeks by Tsowen (don't have the link with me now), but I can't find the string they're referring to in my shellres.192.dll :/
Oh, and how did you get the "alarm" text to go away, as well? As you can see, mine still shows "6:00 AM" for my alarm and I'm not sure which text to remove from the manila file to hide that, as well.

It's not gone... it's just gray. Not sure how it got that way, though. LOL If I figure it out, I'll let you know.
Sorry I wasn't any more help. I seem to remember having to try, try again with the Start text, though. See if you have better luck using the file I've indicated above. Here are the instructions as I saved them:
Change Start Text
1. Unsign your shellres.dll.0409.mui
2. Open it in one of these three Reshack / PE Explorer / Restoratorand go to string value 321 and change the name from Start to whatever you want.
3. Save your modified file
4. Open MssignerorMultiple file Signer
· click Start sign Process (for MFS follow directions in the link)
· a window will pop-up with "Process finished!"
· You will see a that a text file has been create for your shellres on your desktop
· Open the text file, if you see "Warning: This file is signed, but not timestamped, Succeeded" you know the file was signed.

I was wondering where you got your purple taskbars, I've been searching all over!

Your search has ended...
I found these searching around... the first zip contains two shades of purple shiny bars, the wm_purple contains flat bars. I am also attaching a purple WMP (the original, just purple) skin which matches 75769.tsk... portrait and landscape (PURPORIG.zip). Just unzip and copy the files into Windows (after you make a back up of the originals, of course).
I hope this helps... xoxo

Would be cool if you/someone could make a taskbar.tsk which is black gloss, the htc black is just total black so it's a bit ugly Also I need to ask, I can't seem to put my Diamond in portrait mode in WMP even tho I have a skin for it. What's wrong? :E

Have you tried opening WMP while already in landscape mode? I have a touch pro and mine won't go landscape until I slide out the keyboard. Do a search for apps that address the g sensor/accelerometer (I thnk...LOL).
Below is a cab for "glossy black bars"... I've never tried it. I also have a tsk file with shiny gray bars... might be a good contrast to your theme.

Hi everyone,
This is my first ever cab so I thought I'd share it with you all.
I love the TF3D interface but my Rhodium came shipped with a black theme with green highlights. Green has never been one of my favourite colours so I decided to change it to blue.
I dug through all the manilla files & windows images and replaced every green image I could find with a blue one.
I'm not too sure how if this will work on other devices... I would assume the manila files won't be a problem on any device running TF3D but I'm not too sure about windows image files... Please use at your own discretion
Feel free to let me know if I missed any
My thanks to chainfire for CFC GUI - this application made my life so much easier
Please Note:
The images for the green colour scheme are contained in both Manila and the Windows directory images.
If you install the manila cab only, you'll notice many elements are still green, like the On/Off selector on the Communications Tab and the highlights in the dialer.
I'm not too sure why it was developed this way, but I have decided to split my cab up for those of you who don't wish to overwrite your Windows files.
I've also included a cab for the stock windows files in case you want to revert to the stock theme. You can revert the manila files by simply uninstalling that cab.
Enjoy
mmm, nice, I'm install it, but tab slider is in top of the active icon.
in Opera doesn't work, as is as, explorer, task bar, an all windows scheme, but is nice... good job!

This theme just replaces image files. The highlights in explorer etc can be changed by using Max TTM as these are not images but a system setting
I would include this is the theme but I don't how how...
Thanks for the compliment though, I'm glad you like it

I have the same issue and I was disappointed. But when I restore the backup (without hard reset) I did just before testing, icons appears and blue modifications are kept ! See image below :

Some of the changes remain after uninstall because some are images from the Windows directory and not in manilla files... I had a similar problem when installing another colour scheme theme from the forum. I will upload a cab tonight with the default files which should take you back to the green scheme.
I'm not too sure what you guys mean when you say "tab slider is in top of the active icon"... perhaps it's an issue with your existing custom theme. I installed this on my stock manilla theme and all works fine. Can you post a screenshot of this?
All I've done is open up the image files and changed the colours. There's no other configurations in my cab, just existing file replacements
I've uploaded the stock Windows files - check post #1
I also split up the theme cab into two parts, Manila files & Windows files so you can choose not to replace your Windows files if you don't wish to
Tried this on my VZW Rhodium over my stock theme. Now my phone dialer won't work, I have giant green circles around every selected tab, and the radio button dots now have small "phone" images inside them. Phone is utterly useless, and will require a hard reset, since your cabs cannot be uninstalled, and I can't install the windows stock cab.
Epic fail, man.

You have a branded Rhodium so naturally this will be a problem.
A lot of other people, including myself, have installed this with no problems at all.
Please do some reading on what you can and cannot do on YOUR handset before flaming other member's contributions.
Thanks i love it. hope its work at my Omnia 2
Its installed sucessful at my device without error.
but i dont know how to change color scheme
Hi idrak3,
This theme/colour scheme is only available for Manila. Are you running a custom ROM on your Omnia with Touch Flo? If not, I'm afraid this won't work for you
Hi...for the past few days i've been through a lot of threads trying to figure out stuff like changing font color, color of notification bubble etc...without much luck. So detailing my problem here...plz see if you can help.
I started out with the cra**y vodafone theme on my TP2. The two biggest problems: the horrible red slider and the black font due to which i can only use light colored backgrounds.
To get rid of the first problem, I installed ohyeahar's color TF3d with no top/bottom curtains which works great but still the first part of the problem remains.
Also as you can see in the screenshot, the highlight bars in people and mail tabs are the same red (with black text) but the text color in the slider is white (see the mail notification bubble). So, is there a way i can:
1. Change the font color on all tabs to white?
2. Get rid of all the red?
Can it be done through registry editing (are there image files i can replace) or would it require a manila editor?
I used the Back to Black CAB which gives you a nice standard Black Manila.
THEN you can install any number of Themes with no further problem.
Download:-

Before installing it copy the "2330fc3c_manila" file from the windows directory and put it back after installation (otherwise your city names will be in French).
When installing DO NOT let your screen turn off and it takes about 20 mins to finish.

thanks...
but the link's not working
