Hi, nice work, but maybe you should indicates it's a trial, and indicates the original link : http://www.rivia.net/Gentimer_PPC.aspx
But your theme is great for diamond
Thx For Share. But I Found Out There Are Few Problems.
1. Cannot Adjust The Time.
2. Cannot Set The Main Clock To Different Time Zone.
3. Startup Page Cannot Be Set To The One That I Want From Setting.

I think It's system Time... so just change it in Programs->System Clock
That would be nice
Maybe it because of the Trial version?
What is the limitations of the Trial ... anyone?
Hi, AVLev
Could you make a VGA version? Because if you want said this is Diamond Style, I think VGA support is a must
mmm
fab!!.. works fab on my Touch ( UK orange rom ) thanks !!
This is trial, but never expire . (Of couse you can pay and register it)
You connot change time, because I rename standard clock.exe to system_clock.exe and rename gentimer.exe to clock.exe. It is nessery for run gentimer from main page. Please run Programs->System Clock to adjust time.
is it possible to use this without a clock installed on the home page?
(i have applied NisseDILLIGAF's Noclock cab as i hate the manilla clock)
thanks
I really like your HTC look alike Phone-skin and HTC Calculator, but I am sorry that I must admit that I am not so happy about this one...
It is just too fancy... I would love to see just a HTC look alike skin for the current alarm page...Basically with the same options and same software behind it...
This is more a replacement alarm/clock application then a HTC skin for a default WM6.1 application, and it does not really give me the HTC feel.. Sorry.

Hi AVLev,
Thanks for this. Looks great!
Any chance you can update it with the latest version of Gentimer (v2.13). The latest version is much faster to load and navigate.
Thanks and keep up the good work.

I must say I'm a fan of TF3D. But personally, the mono-color scheme is not much fun to look at. So, I searched the web for some free icons and made this. I thought I'd share it with the xda community. My first contribution.
(Don't bother with the poll, I've made my decision already.)
Instructions:
1. Install cab (recommended that previous versions of my theme be uninstalled first)
2. Disable and re-enable TF3D to see the changes. To see changes in the dialer, you'll need to soft-reset.
3. Sprint users, please install my "Color TF3D-Sprint Patch.cab" on top of whichever one of my theme's version you chose. This will add the 2 icons for Sprint TV and Nav. Please see screenshot here.
If don't like it, just uninstall. Soft-reset. Back to normal.
Verizon users, have a look here.
Sprint users, have a look here.
Most devices have black as the default font color for the clock on the Home tab. If yours does not, check here.
FAQ - please read before asking any questions I'll be ignoring all queries covered in the FAQ.
Tip: for improved performance, use CFC Compression. Info here.
Release history
I'd gladly take suggestions and requests. Let me know if you have icons you would like me to use or if you don't like a particular change I made. Together, we can make the perfect theme!
Color TF3D 1.5.cab - Normal
Color TF3D 1.5-no top.cab - Transparent top curtain
Color TF3D 1.5-no bottom.cab - Transparent bottom curtain
Color TF3D 1.5-no top and bottom.cab - Transparent top and bottom curtains (This is the one used in the screenshots)
Color TF3D-Sprint Patch.cab - install this on top of one of the above cabs for icons for Sprint TV and Nav
For those of you who have switched to the official WinMo 6.5 ROM released by HTC or if you have Manila v2.1 with the weather clock, please see here for version 2.0.
Users of Manila 2.0 or 2.1 without the weather clock should stick with version 1.5 of my theme.
AT&T Tilt 2 users should also stick with version 1.5 of my theme. I've not skinned the AT&T tab icon. If you want me to skin it, one of you will have to send me the corresponding manila files...
Further development on this has halted. But I'll still continue to try to support it. Here for details.
Like my work? Please donate! Any amount appreciated! Thanks for supporting!

Yes, I used cfc-gui. The section under "manila\icon off" is "manila\icon preview". That's what you're looking for. If you don't see it, you probably didn't extract your full set of manila files.
Very nice!
Great job, but i've got the Vario5 and tmobile made their own icons and I'm not sure if this works on my version, did you test it?

Only tested on my unlocked UK Touch Pro2. So, don't know if it'll work for you. Suggest you to backup your manila files and test it. This way, you can always revert back if anything goes wrong.

Sure, cab added. Please see 1st post.
I'd really like to try this out as it looks great but I'm a bit concerned because I would have no idea which Manila files to back up incase I wanted to change back. Will the cab now allow me to uninstall from the remove programs option and do I still need to turn of tf3d before installing it?
Sorry for all the questions
The tab isnt transparent, and the bottom is white below the tabs. help?

Going to be honest. I've not actually tried to uninstall the cab. But since the manila files are in ROM, a soft reset should restore them if you do uninstall the cab.
To answer your question on which manila files to backup, you can find the list in the xml file if you "unzip" the cab. Alternatively and probably easier would be to be just back up all of them.

I probably wasn't being clear in the 1st post, so I apologize for any misunderstandings. The slider, clock, taskbar, and 1% battery driver are not included in my cab. You can get them if they suit your preference. The links to those threads are in the 1st post. I take no credit for them. 1st post is now amended to be more clear in this subject.
Btw, yes, they are indeed awesome...

Sorry, going to contradict myself here. I just tried to uninstall the cab. It works perfectly. No need to worry about screwing anything up if you install it and don't like it.
Looks great, thanks very much.

I've actually encountered the problem you described when I tried to install my cab onto my Diamond (which runs a ported version of TF3D2). The strange thing was, the problem mysteriously went away after a few minutes. All I can say is, try to disable and then enable TF3D. Or soft reset. If that doesn't work, try to install the cab again. Maybe the script accidently skipped a fileā¦
I'm quite certain the cab works. Tested on my own TP2 purchased from UK and my friend's TP2 purchased from HK.
Wow !
Everything works, since I am a total noob, that's a bit fo a surpise to me !
Thanks everyone !
Hi all, I thought I'd share a mini breakthrough I had with Animated Weather performance on the Sense 2.5 home screen on the TP2. The animation is 100% fast and smooth if you DON'T activate any wallpaper.
I'm using the stock WM 6.5 South East Asia ROM with the stock Manilla version 2.5.20121225.0. I was recently forced to reload my TP2 after a bad application install required a hard reset. I immediately noticed how much faster the weather animation was after the hard reset. It was 100% fast and smooth. So I only made incremental changes until I determined what the cause of the slowness was.
As soon as I enabled ANY of the weather wallpapers, the performance of the animated weather dropped to around 70%. The problem is that there's no way to remove the wallpaper after you've selected one - you can only change it to a different wallaper - so I had to do a hard reset again to restore the animated weather performance to 100%.
Does anyone know if there is a way of removing the wallpaper using a registry edit or a file system edit?
I know that Max Manilla has a 'remove wallpaper' feature in it, but I've found that the weather animation is still only around 70% with Max Manilla installed.
Have you also tried to slide up on the homepage, to display the 9 quicklaunch buttons? That also gives a fast, and smooth weather animation, even with a wallpaper.
The wallpaper itself is not the issue, it's the elements that are on the homepage that cause the problem (clock, calendar).
I think you can remove the wallpaper in the registry. It should be in [HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila].
Yes I think you're right, but I also believe that the wallpaper is like an additional element that the animation struggles with. If I have a wallpaper enabled then I can only have another 1-2 elements displayed before the animation suffers. With no wallpaper I can have 1. the clock (with the weather insert) 2. the calender and 3. the quick links, all displayed, and still have excellent animation performance.
I'll have a look at that registry key after work tonight and see if I can find the setting to disable the wallpaper.
I'd probably say those "elements" like the clock and short cuts and email and missed call notifactions are probably more important to ...... everyone.... then having clouds float across their screen

What I'm saying is, you can have all the elements displayed AND the weather animation nice and smooth, as long as you don't enable a wallpaper. I for one, happen to like the animation

Thanks for the tip. I found out that if you've enabled a wallpaper and now you want to disable it you just delete these 2 entries from the registry:
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\CachedBackgroundPath
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeBackgroundPath
Neither of them exist prior to enabling a wallpaper
So, is it smoother once you delete these keys ?

It will be smoother but you will lose your wallpaper
Another way to improve animation performance is to minimize the number of things appearing on the home screen. I recommend using Cookie's home tab to remove the quicklinks
That way you can keep your wallpaper, have smooth weather animation, and still have access to quicklinks by swiping up
(Actually the clock involves a lot more lua scripts so removing the clock would be more effective...but I don't think anyone would do that )

I have a better idea... removing everything from the main screen. This way it will be very very fast.
Come on let's be serious !!! If you remove the quicklinks and a few other stuff you'd better with Sense 2.1
If removing the wallpaper makes an actual difference it's worth it (I like having a black or dark one anyway...). Btw Valkyrie ROMs are quite smooth even with the wallpaper on (Just wanna see if I can get it even faster)
Alcibiade said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It's definitely smoother after you delete these keys. Even if you've selected a black wallpaper, deleting these keys will still help because it actually removes the wallpaper altogether, so there's one less thing the animation has to contend with.
I can't say if this is a good idea for those of you who have Cookies Home Tab or Max Manila installed. It works great for me though, on a stock ROM running Sense 2.5. Back up the Manila registry key first if you're not sure, so it can be easily restored. It seems there's no need to disable Touch Flo while making these changes - they can be made on the fly while touch flo is still running.
I tried this (deleting the two registry entries) on the stock Sprint 6.5 ROM - works great! Noticable improvement on the home page. Thank you!

Man, same here.
It kinda irritated me in the first place having redundant information (to the weather tab) making Home tab elements harder to read, but then when I realized the effect it had on performance, it was GONE-dee.

Yes- it's called a registry editor, and there are a number of options (Total Commander, PHM Registry Editor, etc).
If you don't know what you're doing, though, be careful- don't start deleting things you don't think need to be there, and so on. You can mess up the system in a fundamental way.
Thanks for helping, downloading Resco Explorer, will let you know what have I done with it

After changing my clock to an analogue one (from the Fallout theme here), the weather animation is a lot smoother. Everything is a lot smoother actually, so changing the clock does wonders for everything really.
Holy crap! You're right! I've been irritated with laggy homescreen for so long and it's that damn clock! Thanks for the tip!
i think is not related with the clock but the weather icon which below the clock...when i use cookie home tab and i use "clock without weather"...my homepage weather animation immediate feel lot smoother and faster...
Any way to just dissable the full screen weather animation? i want the weather... just dont care for the animation that comes up on the whole screen.
I have a TP2, with Manila 2.1 and WM6.5. How do I get rid of the @#$%^&* flippy clock without installing Manila 2.5?

Thanks, but this doesn't seem to allow replacement of the flippy clock, it just makes it better behaved. Unless I'm reading the intro message wrong.
"Flick" up anywhere on your home screen and the clock will change to a smaller, non "@#$%^&* flippy" one. It isn't the best looking, but it might be what you are looking for.

The link in post #3. Just install the cab and it stops the flipping (believe only in portrait but I really only press the home button when in portrait anyway) and it does not mess with your current clock style .

Looks like this tool doesn't really change the clocks, and a number of people who tried it had serious problems and couldn't uninstall it. I think I'll pass.
Im curious how to remove the animated clouds on the stock rom (2.13.xxxx)
I have everything setup the way I like and just cant figure this out.
Thanks in advance!
I was able to finally accomplish this with Cookies Home Tab Editor. I'm relatively sure it was that and not HDWalls.

Yes, CHTE has the option for that (not HDW)...it's a quicklink you can add once you have that installed.
There's also a registry edit that will do the same thing, but I don't happen to have it handy...just search on here for "disable fullscreen weather"

hehe, had to trawl through the registry for the key name and then search xda to find the info from last time.
You can also just select animated wallpaper instead of weather wallpaper, and then just choose the wallpaper you want, whether animated or not. Just another method for stock ROMs w/o CHT, or using the registry.

CHT/CHTE will allow you to choose clocks that don't have the weather, but only certain types that are built that way...you can't just "remove" the weather from the regular ones.
