Quickest fix may be to uninstall your taskbar and try another. I installed one and it did change my volume control (which I prefer) but it didn't mess with my notifications manager.
I dont really know what I did, but my notification manager was switched from the topaz notification manager to the old winmo notification manager that pops-out. I think I installed something and it changed that. How do I change it back? I have tried to re install topaz but it wont let me because it is already on my device
The problem is one of the files in taskbar HTCVolumeControl.dll is overwriting the one from topaz.
At this point your best bet is back up everything and Hard Reset. Then install only the ones you like, or seem to work.
Many taskbars out there do break volume control. So you have to know what is in your device, and what is in the taskbar before you install them.

I have tried to search and find what to do to install a theme that has icons, and cannot figure it out. Do I need some program that everyone is using? Also on dialer skins how are those installed?
Do skins kill battery life or use alot of system resources?
Thanks
What theme? If its HTC home, you install the .cab file from the phone or sync the phone to pc and double click .exe.
If its a .tsk file, Put the file in the windows directory of the phone then go to today screen and select from there.
Skins dont use a lot of system resources UNLESS they are actively doing something( S2U2 for example if you install a moving gif as your wallpaper) as they are just being used instead of the originals.. Cheers...
yea, u need to be a wee bit more clear as to what you want, you're probably new and dont know the right terms, so maybe if you posted some pics we could understand a bit better what u are trying to achieve.
this is the style im looking for http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=51534&d=1190401691 with the big clock and some icons below. I think that I will need a plug in to show the icons. I installed a tsk theme but it only changed the color of the top and bottom bars, but did not show the large clock or icons like that one. I saved it to the memory card, not within a folder and I was able to browse find and install it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry Im New
thanks,
Nicholas
that big clock is the htc home plugin, which you can download all over this forum, or at www.pocketemu.com which incidentally also has another program called htc home customizer, which would be the easiest way to customize the home icons. It may not have that exact theme you are looking for, so the best way to get that theme is to ask the person who posted that screenshot

Hi NisseDILLIGAF,
I am new to HTC Diamond, really appreciate all links you had put under the "Customizing TF3D - The Collection!", I had learnt alot.
I have problem with changing status bar color on my HTC Diamond, the status bar background color at the bottom of the screen had change to "light grey" instead of "black" color on all of tab option, such as the white "Phone text" and ""Program text" appear on a "light grey" background on the Home page, which leads me very difficuilt to read the "white text", are there any programs that you have or know that can change the background color of the status bar, back to "black" or any colors
Thank you very much
i m having the same problem... any hints?

Start->Settings->Today-> click a WMTheme (HTC Black) -> ok

This happened to me after I installed Mapking. If you have installed this program go to windows/startup directory and delete the mapking sms program. Reset and should be back to normal.

I have the diamond by alltel, and they decided not to even include the black theme for some reason. any other way to do this? I just want to change the top and bottom bars to black. Thanks.
here is what you need
Thanks, but I could not get this to work on the diamond. It said it was going to change the color, but it looks like this program was designed for win mobile 5.
Am I just over looking something? Any other diamond users wanna help me out here?

Hi, I was wondering if it is not only possible to change the style of the taskbar, but also its position? I'm running a stock AT&T Tilt2 ROM and I would like to keep the taskbar at the top when I flash a new ROM (as opposed to the "bottom" bar I've seen on most roms such as NRG's ROM).
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.

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, on Wm6.5 roms for the touch HD you can press and hold on the start menu items an move them arround but in the HD2 you can only send them to top. Thats is a really ugly to reorder lots of icons.
I think there must be a key in the registry to set this behaviour but cant find it.
Someone knows it?

I use JWMD Icon Changer V1.9 beta for Windows Mobile 6.5 to change the order of the start menu items... Works well.
Hope this helps...
This is not in the registry. Its in a SYS file named gwes ithink. Only way to fix it is by flashing to cooked ROM or update from HTC.

As far as I know this works only in later revisions of the os build. Maybe your Touch HD has a newer one.

Does JWMD work for anyone else on their HD2?
On my old phone both JWMD Icon Changer and Showaco reSTART worked great in arranging the icons. On the HD2 however, neither seems to work.
JWMD arranges most of the icons on my HD2, but it doesn't rearrange them all (like the settings icon, it appears randomly in the list) and the ones that it does rearrange don't stay where they are supposed to and move after a little while.
What has HTC done to the Start menu to make it different? Because rearranging icons worked great on my old phone with these same exact programs.

I think that behaviour can be cause htc icons are created every time the phone reboots. There is a cab somewhere here (i think is in the tips thread) that disable the recreation of icons so after that you will have no problem. I hope that works

Thanks for the input, but I already solved the issue (by doing a hard reset, heh).
JWMD works great now though, and with some spiffy icons makes my HD2 almost perfect - the disorganized icons were really bugging me.
