Customize HTC Home

I tried to modify HTC Home, because it is IMHO to big. I only need the Home Tab so i wondered if it might be possible that the tab selection is not being displayed to save some Space (in the pic is shown what i want to be displayed).
The greatest thing at all would be if only the Files needed for the Home Tab would be installed. But that is not necessary at all, because i would be able to figure that out by myselfe and create that cab file.

Maybe someone knows an other application, that is able to display that i desire. Or a SMS, Email, and Call Notification as plugin for Pocket Plus as Icons that can be plased free into the Tabs.
I'm looking forward for your help
Greets so far.

rltoday has a skin that will do what you want. Free program that works very well.

rltoday still have bugs, It can not work properly in my hima I have given feedback to the creator

It would be much nicer if the area you want to disappear could appear and disappear by selecting the tabs. That means when you click onces on the Home tab the clock display appears when you click it again it will disappear. And that way for all Tabs of HTC Home, that would be a great development for the HTC HOME.

Why not use HTC Home Custom 1.0 beta5? (HHC 1.0 beta5?)

Why? Cause what he wants to do is not possible with Home Customizer.
AFAIK it is not possible at all yet.

I would really like it if it was possible. Ideally with the custom if there's only 1 tab used the tab bar should disappear... It would be perfect

If rlToday doesn't bug for you, you really should give it a try.
I've been using it in place of HTC Home for weeks now, and never looked back.
It looks better, smaller, more customizable... simply awesome
Should check out the skins made by a person known as FOXCAT:
http://rotlaus-software.de/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=762#p762

Thnx for your help so far.
RLtody seems to be a nice tool with great capabilities. Unfortunatly the HTC Theme doesnt work for me. It gives me odd graphics, but i havnt had the time yet to change the skin.xml for my needs.
But I'm shure i'll get what i want from this app. Indeed i'll get more i've ever hoped when starting the thread (A today plugin, exacly like i want it and fully customizable).
@PAPPL
It isn't possible to do what i want with any customize tool for HTC Home, because all that they are capable of is changing the reg keys in HKLM\Software\HTC\HTC Home and replace the Images. For both i dont need any tool at all. But there isnt any reg key (at least i found none) that is responsible for the task i want. Nor did i find the place of the prog, where the graphics are defined. I think the only way to find that out is to get a hand onto the sourcecode. But i dont know anything at all of reverse compilation.

Maybe someone knows an other application, that is able to display that i desire. Or a SMS, Email, and Call Notification as plugin for Pocket Plus as Icons that can be plased free into the Tabs.

Not too sure what you are looking for here, but you might give HTCPlus! a try. I find it a bit smaller and does what I am looking for.

New TF3D in the Touch 3G

Has anyone else noticed the new TF3D in the Touch 3G pics? It has a different clock, different contacts view (I prefer the new one) and a new tab called "Map Search".
I wonder if it's possible to get this TF3D on our Diamonds.
http://www.htc.com/www/product.aspx?id=63760

Isnt it new Touch known around as Touch2D for QVGA devices??? Idont know just guessing...
OK Im right and its ready for download as beta in some warezsites I wont advertise...

Ahh, didn't realise it was QVGA, well that's no fun then .

Yeah i think i prefer the tf2d to tf3d - looks fast and i bet it performs well on our diamonds and it doesnt loose much functionality from tf3d.
The contacts view looks great, the analog clock looks great too.
Anyone working on tf2d for our diamonds? Theres a big thread in the dev and hacking section but there only doing qvga.

Yes, there is also a new presentation in the weather tab (with the four next days view).
It seems to be a new version of TF3D, also avaliable in WVGA (480x800) on the Touch HD...
Perhaps a multi resolution TF3D.
Oh, and did you notice the new tab icon between camera and music ?

new tf3d
I think I still prefer the TF3D looks, but performance/battery life improvements in TF2D could be worth reconsidering.
Did anybody else notice the "Stocks" icon in TF3D on the Touch HD?
I am really looking forward to this, it's a feature I was missing until now. Hope there's new ROMs for the Diamond soon...

Did HTC nick TF2D from the XDA Team

its the other way around there mate

It's difficult to make smth like this on VGA screen
Manila shd work in a fullscreen mode also

got it working on diamond
(1) Disable TouchFlo 3D (no idea if really necessary-i did )
(2) Install OX-ManilaCompatibleSharedDLL.cab
(3) Restart
(4) Install Manila2D from here
looks cool and makes diamond really FAST
but its still in qva and needs to be modded...

maybe manilla2D wont be so fast if will be as VGAbut Ill wait for new manila3D..​

Someone please make it vga lol this is awesome. really doesn't loose much of tf3d functionality and it is really fast on our diamonds!

yes, it would be great if someone make a VGA manila 2D for diamond....

Looks great! Let's keep our fingers crossed for a updated TF3D now , or a (modded!?) VGA version of TF2D.

i think redraw everything in VGA wouldnt make any difference between this and TFL3D
i hope we wont get stretched icons/text etc when VGA version comes out. but im looking forward to it!

lol, what is most interesting is the analog clock! droll

if i put TF2D, when the diamond is on can i choose between TF3d and 2D like on samsung omnia?

[15/10/08] Manila 2d in Landscape Workaround

Hi guys,
If you're like me, and you constantly flip open your keyboard to find that once you go to the Today screen, your Manila 2d makes your device rotate back to Portrait, you're in luck
Here's the result of a three days of work:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Download:
http://myunspace.com/?d=D45839481
Video: (thanks darkz)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rv-mN15o5VI
How it Works:
Inside the .cab is Mortscript, which is vital for this to work. There is a script that runs while Device.exe (which should always be running) that reads whether the device is in Portrait or Landscape, and checks off TouchFlo and checks my Touchflo-skinned RLToday, and vice-versa. Then it redraws the Today screen. However, it does take a while to do all of this, but the effect is worth while
Enjoy and comment please

Woo, right on time, installing now...thank you so much!!

Does this work with all TouchFlo skins or does it only work for certain ones?

Very nice. 1 Suggestion: post the release date (16OUT) in the title. For some reason, i was expecting to see it ( I think it picks up more attention ).

Any chance you can post a video?

Thanks mbarvian

edit: download is failing every time - server can't keep up?

this one is just convenient shortcuts, while his is just landscape Manila 2D
however, I don't know how that's going to play out, but we'll see!

THANKS my friend, great job

Mirror please. Can't download, complaining that due to proxy server or something. Thanks.

wow great work men...

i installed it and when i go to landscape it doesn't work. i also did soft reset b4. i got a Samsung sch-i760.

heres a rapidshare mirror: http://rapidshare.com/files/154444657/MBarvian_Manila_2d_Landscape.cab.html
EDIT:
tested on an At&t tilt from 10:30 pm on..and works ( for the most part ).
issues to report :
threaded msg'g doesnt work
contacts take 3-5 seconds to load
task menu loads scrambled.
i do appreciate your efforts tho..i do look foward to a future release!

Works great!
Any way to change the links?

Awesome work Mbarvian! Any chance of switching this over to homescreen ++ UI, its very similiar to rltoday in the xml design, but allows for multiple pages and today plugins to be added? That could open lots of possibilities.

question: once installed if you dont like it can you uninstall it or what cause id like to try it out on my tytn 2 but like to know whats what first thanx a lot an greak tjob on making this!!!

Very nice, great work! I installed on my herald running ttrans 7.5 M2D rom and it works great. sure there is a bit of a lag, but who cares it adds alot of class to the manilla platform! so for all with M2D cooked into their ROMs, this will work. Thank you for your time and obvious talent!

hey mbarvarian i posted a link frm my thread to yours.
i am still trying to get a true landscape m2d but untill then i did post a link here.
great job i really like this alternative setup.

Are you looking for Touchflo 3D to install and use? If so there is already a thread for it...What exactly would you want a theme for touchflo 3d for, if you don't use touchflo? Also note, there is a TouchFlo3D SPB Mobile Shell theme if you would rather install that over touchflo, but still want the same look...

I already have TF3D HD from the Touch HD installed and I use it everyday!
What im after is a repository of themes like they do for the standard TF3D on the Diamond:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2784134#post2784134
The themes in the thread above dont 'look' right on WGA devices like the Touch HD or Xperia, and I was aondering if anyone had made any or knows the links to any

I have made a thread about modding tf3d, and u can see from the screen shots that I have modified my tf3d, just use manila editor and get the stuff you want like clocks,icons and stuff then just put in your background that you want and leave the other manila files that already is in the version you have. (just replace the files needed)

lmao no what he is trying to tell you is that he has TF3D working and in use as it comes with the HTC Touch HD (aka Blackstone) and he wants to change the theme of the TF3D that is on his handset as standad im also intrested in themes seen a few about heres one ive seen http://mylostblog.altervista.org/skins/touchflo-hd/touchflo-hd-theme-004-hd3d not sure why this was posted in the sony section though!

When will this nightmare end!?
I understand TF3D is a popular choice and there are so many other threads already in this forum that cover pretty much everything about it. Yet every day i see 10 new threads popping up like mushrooms.
Seeing as this is a Kovsky related section, wouldn't be nice if people used the existing threads to discuss Tf3D and create new threads for items related to the Kovsky? Just a thought!

Have you already tried AnswerKeyDisabler?

Or sensorlock / styluslock ?

Im also after a HD type dialer but im sure its only a matter of time before someone ports it for the diamond from the HD. In the long run hopfully HTC will release the newer TF3D with the dialer for our diamonds

hey are your reading my posts? of course it's not adapted cause it's original HD dialer, that's why i have created this theme requesting someone to port this dialer for us

please port it
i really like to have this on my raphael.
so if there is someone to know how to port it then it would be higly appreciated.

Ive extracted the cab succesfully and the only thing to do, i guess, is downscale the graphics to the VGA Resolution, but i dont know how much i need to downscale the grafics to fit it to VGA...

The touch HD is WVGA (480x800) and the Raphael is VGA (480x640)
I'm not sure if just scaling the graphics will be enough but it's the right place to start.

Ofcourse I'm reading your posts! Actually, I follow this whole thread with great expectation .
In now way I ment to critisize your attachment, I do realize that you didn't claim anything else the redistribute the original HD Dialer, but....
I thought it would add some information to all readers to explain what this package would do on our Diamonds so it would be clear what work has to be done. I'm joining this community for some time now, and I did forsee some future miscommunication..... That's all!!

sorry, i found what i needed
