Ive installed touchflo 3d no problems at all. I tried to install the bling bling juvel theme by dragging the manila files into windows folder, but only some icons worked, dont know what i done wrong. Then i found a .theme file for a revised version of the theme i installed this but now touchflo wont start on my x1i does anyone have a clue what im doing wrong?

Admittedly i am struggling a littile with touchflo at the moment but i will learn and i will be of use to this forum eventually (hopefully)... just need a little help to get going
decided to leave tf3d config alone and manila files for timebeing excellent thread on blackstone page with all cab files for themes etc

I've read basically all the major threads for Touchflo on allshadow forum, but yet I still have to learn how to install the touchflo on my shadow properly. I think I have downloaded on the files i needed (if someone can list them again, that be great)
But how do you install these? I downloaded Update 20. 96dpi mod, and manilla startup/shutdown and home screen.
I dont know what to do with these files!! Help!
Thanks!
have you looked at shadowmik'es guide? or if you're asking how to install cabs, just put them on your phone and run them.
i want to really pimp out my phone but as keep reading through all the threads I end up being confused. cab files, zip files, TF3D config, clocks. what and where do i start and how do i install these files. let me know what do i need to post to help me do all of these mods.
help will be greatly appreciated!!
fottenlahi the only way is to learn is read the post's cause the instructions are really simple enough I was a noob once but I read read and read and learnt how to do the basic stuff....
as whitefalcon says, you have to read, try, hard reset if needed and learn.
You will get a hold of it quite fast.
To answer quickly :
-zip files can be opened on the ppc like on a desktop
-cab files are like the install files of your desktop, copy theme to the ppc click on theme and they insatll a programme.
-TF3D config allows you to tweak the touchflo 3D (change tabs order, remove tabs...)
- clock, well change the clocks
On the what and where to start, it depends on what you want to tweak, no one can decide for you...
know how you feel - but best way to learn is to try. Having said that, let me know what it is you want to do and I will post pointers for you.
Good luck!!
Maybe it is a little difficult to fresh, however:
zip is just like the rar or 7z or zip in windows system.
cab could be describled as the exe files in Windows, so, dobule-click it and do next.
clocks and config are some kind things of make your diamond more smart and suit your using habbit, so you could learn it later.
After all, you do not need to care about those difficulties, your phone is well enough when you buy it, so take it easy,dude.
thank you guys for trying to help me out. okay i have been doing some testing and my results are... i figured out how to install themes, fonts and clocks through cab files. it was a no brainer since i have previously owned a HTC touch pretty simple. now i tried to install the TF3D config and it gives me errors. I followed instructions about checking DWORD and it was what it was and error still showed, second step though about deleting tweaks dont know were to go to delete that.(if someone can guide me through that. i have asked before but didn't get an answer.)
what i currently have on my Diamond.
1. shakass V2 (theme installed through .cab. awesome theme)
2. .net framework 3.5 (both 3.5 and 2.0 "2.0 came with my rom")
3. yota contacts (really nice but eliminates the default quick access menu)
4. registry editor
5. advance config 3.3
is there some other apps i need to get?
should i use TF3D config or Manila customizer?
thought this might help, i have a
1.09.651.5 ROM
1.00.00F RADIO
I have tried several skins for Manilla but everytime I remove the analog clock with Manilla 2D customizer to show only the digital clock my home tab is screwed up.
The digital clock is not in the middle of my screen but stuffed on the right.
Can some one help me out?
Anyone please...?
Use newest M2DC ver.0.28, or edit manually settings file located in Windows - HTCHomeSettings.xml

hey ho.
i´ve got the the same problem. but there is a little cab out there in the forums wich is called " Iago analog clock 4 onyx" or something like that.
just aply a theme.
if your screen is messed up after aplying theme just install that "iago analog clock..."
you may have to aply that theme one more time.
this worked for me.
but you have to do that procedure everytime youve aplyied a new theme.
this is the wrong section for questions. please read the rules

Hey folks
i have a request, i saw there is a kick ass binary clock for the prophet that looks like that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1861193 The Uber Binary Clock
i have a dutty rom installed, and i'm using touchflow 3d with the wm 6.1 installed, would there be a possibility that someone can make a clock for my phone too? =)
color in limegreen would be the end**** muuah
thanks in advance maybe there is one who want to give it a shot
cheers
rob
i used this clock for a while..
its made with chi tai's "homescreen" today plugin.
its just a theme for this handy tool.
some dudes were really amazed about me getting the time from some dots
I think it is possible and simple to get it on TF3D, I will try it, when I will have a little bit time for it.

If you could direct me to the software I would need I will look into it and try to do this myself. I love the idea.
Here it is:
1) disable manila
2) backup the files with names in enclosed zip file (backup original clocks)
3) copy and replace files from enclosed zip file to \windows
4) enable manila
hello vphk,
i just tried out your manila files, but instead of binary clock there were pink numbers on the home screen?
am i doing something wrong?:
i disabled TF3D - was overwriting the 6 files - reaktivated TF3D again ... and failed
greetings stizn
Sorry I dont know, where is a problem. Maybe different manila version.
Now I am using Rhodium port from Xbmod.
Does anybody have the same problem or is here anybody, who has not problem with binary clock ?
Now I have tried to download posted files and everything is OK, I checked it with manila editor.
Pink numbers - it looks that you have branded T-Mobile ROM isn't it ?
now, i'm confused, i checked your posted files yesterday with the manila editor 0.2 and they were blank?
What am i doing wrong?
greets stizn
Hi,
I tried it now (download) for the second time and still is everything OK.
I used manila editor v 0.2 too. There are only 2 file blank - it is background for clock.
So I am confused too
when i downloaded it again today it worked... thanks a lot for this clock
greets stizn
Ok here is my issue I have built a totally fully custom theme for a client on a Touch HD running duttys v3 Xtream rom and it works flawlessly on it.
Now the problem....
I got my hands on a real TP2 Rhodium and loaded my theme and guess what many issues. the theme files are slightly different in a few areas such as The people tab needs to be fully reworked again and the albums tab has a few small issues.
The 2 major issues I need someones help with is...
1. The stupid purple home screen wallpaper that loads itself over the default one.. there does not seem to be default option that pops up on the Touch Pro2. I modified the manila files to show the proper backgrounds on Port and Landscape mode and they show properly and in HQ but that dam home screen keeps overwriting with that purple wall. I'm thinking this issue would be hidden in the mode9 files or the home.xml files does anyone have any knowledge on this that would benefit me?
2. Patch manila files to be cfc ready on the Touch Pro2 I attempted to patch the files usen chainfire methods and I'm not able to do it on device it fails and will not overwrite the manila.exe file I tried loading the modified patched files manually from my pc to device but keep getting a unable to modify files due to microsoft signing issues. I attempted to use the reshacker resign tool get a confimed resign message but still can't upload to the device. [I can work around this issue but would rather fix it]
I have a deadline for this project that is only just about a week away now and normally I would just find it myself but if there is someone much smarter out there that may already have these answers I would really appreciate the help.
I am aware this question may pose a issue to the forum rules but figured altho this does not offer immediate usefulness to the smartphone community It will benefit us all in the near future. If it has pushed the envelope of the forum rules I will say my "I'm Sorry's" in advance to the admins and mods here.
First, how are you trying to overwrite? From the PC to the ppc? If so, use resco explorer or total commander. Also, use a good task manager like SK Tools has or dotFred & make sure manila is not running, along with tdserver, manila2, etc... All the executables may need to be stopped b'c of dependencies.
BTW, coke is bad, very bad.
I have attempted to use the cfc program of chainfires to patch to device it succesfully patchs the files but it says fail when trying to save them. I also patched the manila files with the same tool to the extraced manila files on my pc the patch will succeed on the pc. I then moved the files to the ppc and moved them [with total commander] to the windows folder. fail to over write [with TF3D shut off in the settings yes] I attempted to load the patched theme from a .cab file [ driver signing issue ... fail ] I can load all the uncompressed files with no issue but would much rather cfc compress the theme due to the size issues of a complex theme like this one. I skined the enitre interface all internal TF3d interfaces as well as the main TF3D interface. For the HD the same files are 8mb but the uncompressed version I have running on the TP2 are over 17mb to big for me I don't want to lag the device due to the graphics. It just seems there is a issue with overwritting the manila.exe and the 2 .dll files I thought of attempting to rename the .exe and .dll files with total commander as well but even if that worked its not practical as this theme must be able to be deployed in a single .cab file.
I am a theme designer and really have very limited knowleage of the code side of manila so I am really hopeing someone that understands the mode9 .exes and .dlls in manila could help find the answers to this for me and ... everyone as I may be the first to ask this but I won't be the last for sure... lol
Why not create a cab instead of trying to overwrite manually?

I did that it failed due to new driver signing issues, if you have not used the new touch pro 2 it has some new security measures I think as I had troubles installing normal programs before installing the sdkcerts.cab now those programs install alright.
but still this home page wallpaper overwriting and no cfc support is driving me crazy
But keep the ideas coming guys we are sure to stumble upon it sooner or later.
Thanks for the responses

You shouldn't use CFC. Since it's a stock rom, it's unlikely to be CFC compressed.
I thought I could patch the manila and deploy the patched cfc version with the .cab , Chainfire gave me a few Ideas to try and I will update this thread if I get anything firgured out with that.
Still looking for a solution on the home page wallpaper being overwritten.
So let me know if anyone finds a solution for that one.
Does anyone know how to disable the file protection on the Rhodium I can't seem to change any of the core OS files any exe or dll renameing or deletion fails. I tried using total comander and changing the file properties so they were not read only but the changes will not stick?
I also attempted to use the newest cfc ui tool to patch manila on device and it failed agian, but if I could manage to change the name and delete the manila.exe and mode9.dll files as Chainfire recomended I may be able to patch them.
Agian any Idea's are really welcome as I'm losing my mind over here trying to get this to work... lol
