I was wondering if anyone can make me a custom slider for my wallpaper I made a Decepticons wallpaper and now I want a custom slider I've been looking for icons but I can't find any.
Or maybe even a slider for a South Park wallpaper I'm trying to make a South Park wallpaper since I have some ringtones.
And one last question how can I choose a custom message tone for my text I already created found some I just need to know where to put the file so I can use it. Or how to choose the file from my sd card if possible.
See my webpage here and let me know if you would be interested in me making one.
Just an FYI.. Dark / Black sliders and icons do not come out well at all.
I wanted to do something like maybe different character faces for different icons if possible. if you could do something like that with your design that would be good.
I'm using HDWall would your slider work with it?
I don't see why it wouldn't, but I won't do different pictures for each icon. Sorry, just too time consuming.

Hi,
Top Bar is the essential on today screen cuz it show many notifications, time etc. So what i was thinking is that somebody make a program to transparent the whole top Bar or atleast it can change with the full screen wallpaper. It means the whole today can go with the wallpaper.
Hoping to see programmer put a hand in making it.
Thanks
And also a program for resizing the top bar would be cool.
nobody wants to even try...
i gaurantee this will be the most useful plugin for ppc user...
somebody should try to make it, cuz im not a prgrammer
Come on you programming gurus..
you had a full 5 hours to do this and no one has done it...
Were you guys sleeping or something?
I currently use VJTOGGLETODAY. Not sure where I got it from but if you do some diggin' I am sure you can find it. you can also look into wisbar adv. as it lets you configure your start button.
SoBBie
this is already possible - transparent bars are part of the theme.
search for home screen designer and have a play
VJ toggle today cannot do that thing and home screen designer is for smart phone only.
I know it is not exactly what your looking for, but here is what I did:
I use WA3, and in the theme I use, I took the top bar image and exchanged it with am image I made by taking my current wallpaper image, and copying the top part (same height as the top bar image in the theme), and named it the same name the top bar image had in the theme I use.
(Sorry if it got too wordy)
Although it isn't truly 'invisible' it does have the effect I wanted. I will try to post a screenshot later when I get home.
anybody willing to make a program on this...
Thing is, I can't find a theme that I REALLY like. Everything is either too flashy, busy or just plain hidous. I also realise this is subjective as well. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate all the hard work everyone who has created a theme has put into it.
If I find the icon pack that I want, could someone create a FULL theme (portrait and landscape) and also install a couple .cab's as well?
Color themes:
-Different shades of grey for primary/blue highlights
-Earth tones (Buuf icon set)
List of cabs:
-same wallpaper on all tabs -or- nesse's cab where it maes the home tab different and all other tabs another wallpaper
-no curtains
-possibly crystal flip clock or transparent sprint clock
If I'm being too picky just let me know, but I'm sure I'm not the only one wanting a theme that is portrait and landscape that isn't covered with fire or other migrane inducing patterns.
WELL.........
you can always try to make one yourself
this way you get what you want
EGADS! You expect ME to do ALL the WORK.... MYSELF?! lol, yeah i guess you're right. Need to filter through the forums and find links on how to do it. Only a couple problems arise though. 1.) I'm at work a lot of the times and not allowed to DL anything to the computers 2.) Computer at the house is mind numbingly slow
Hello to All.....
I hate being a noobie with this stuff and I have done my fair share of searching & testing (with quite a few hard reboots) but I think I'm missing something here. In a lot of the different theme.cab pics I've seen, they will have both a clear clock and slider bar. But every time I install a theme.cab file it only has an effect on the wallpaper; not the clock or the slider. Are these separate "modification" that need to be done or should installing the theme.cab take care of it all?
I've played around with the Crystal Clock install but that has caused some problems and now I can't even uninstall. As far as transparent sliders....I can get nothing to work.
Does having a transparent clock or slider require some type of "root" installation of some other program first so whatever theme gets installed will take effect?
I've downloaded the HDwall program and have been playing with it for a bit but for the life of me I can't get a custom slider to work.
If this makes any difference I'm running a Verizon version of the TP2.
As I said, I hate asking but it's driving me nuts and I'm hoping someone can give me some direction as to how to get these themes fully working. This is certainly a lot different than the older themes I used on my Samsung i760.
Thanks much,
Brian
same problem
I've come across the the same problem. I've tried to install seperate clock cabs and also whole themes. In my case the clock never changes. I installed MaxTTM tried to install the custom clocks and they never work, I actually have to restore the theme to get the messed up clock off of it. tham
nks for the help.
Hey guys, this post may be of some significance to you Verizon users.
Hello. Long time lurker, first time poster.
So, I want to have my wallpaper of choice on only my home screen, and have the weather animated as well. I'm running Verizon's official 6.5 upgrade with, as I understand it, Sense 2.1 (I haven't been able to confirm that the way I could on the old ROM, though).
I made a cab of the wallpaper with the nearest I could find to the proper settings, which was TouchFLO v2.1 - No Compression - Home Tab. HDWall tells me that I need Co0kieMonster's Patch. I found it here: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529730, though it definitely seems to be meant for the Blackstone, and not my Rhodium. Not able to find anything better, and not knowing my specific version of Sense, I tried a number of his cab's, starting with the Verizon specific one, and then running through all of his 2.1 variants. At the best, there was no noticeable change on my phone. At worst, the clock would only display white boxes with bits of black in them (and wouldn't flip up to show the text version), the Call History became 0 Missed Calls and my calendar appointments wouldn't show up on the home screen. Trying different settings for home screen only in HDWall either resulted in no change to my wallpaper, or the icon bar at the top being weirdly skinned or turning green (which makes sense, since I wasn't using the correct settings). HDWall works fine creating a wallpaper for all my tabs, but I don't want that.
So then, does anyone have a solution to suggest? I can't imagine I'm the first one to have tried to do this with this particular configuration. Any advice and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I believe this is what you are looking for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503511&highlight=hdwall
This has the patch included already.
If you want to change the wallpaper of the home screen without affecting other tabs then go to settings on TF3D and change the home wallpaper. Then install this cab, soft reset, and the animated weather will be on top of any custom wallpaper...

Gah! That was sooooo easy! It was just a cab! I'd put probably three hours into getting this to work, and there was a cab for it. Thank you so much!!
So now I have another question:
When I installed the cab, the top curtain on my home screen disappeared. I was thrilled about this, because I was going to get rid of it next anyway. As a result, though, the clock shifted upwards to fill the space (around 1/4"), but the weather animations didn't. In most cases this doesn't mean anything. However, when it's sunny and there's the lens flare, it comes from just below the sun instead of inside it. When icicles form on the clock, they're happening a quarter of an inch below the top edge of the clock, rather than on the top edge.
These are minor issues, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a fix. Thanks in advance...
I already have weather animation on mine. I didn't add anything. Is this stock T-Mobile 6.5/2.1?
Mine's the stock Verizon 6.5/2.1. My issue isn't that I don't have the weather animations (I do, both with the default wallpaper and, thanks to the above cab, with custom wallpapers as well), but that the clock on the homepage isn't where the phone thinks it should be, which results in the weather animations being misplaced a bit.

Thanks, dj_doeboy!!!
does this work on sprints 6.1

I don't think it will, no. The weather clock on the homescreen is limited to WinMo 6.5 and Sense UI, as far as I know, and this cab is for that.
Once your official ROM upgrade hits though, you should be able to use it, so maybe save it until then. It shouldn't be more than a month and a half before it's released.
Can someone please tell me the steps necessary to make my own custom slider using HDWALL.
My rom i use is Cell Leo PRo V6...
I have a set of awesome transparent icons for manilla but am not sure what size the icons have to be, if i have to include wallpaper and what the specifics are with making sure i do it right.
If someone has a link, that would be great too as long as it explains it.

It's very simple, but there's some variables. Have you used HDWalls at all before? Or read the thread for the app? It doesn't give all the details, but you need to make sure you start there at least.
The pics can be any size to start really...HDWalls resizes them to what they need to be automatically, for both the small and large icons for the slider. You literally just drag and drop your chosen image into the window.
Now, the caveat is that HDWalls only natively converts slider icons for the base set of 10 that appear in 6.1 (home, people, txt, mms, cal, web, cam/pics, weather, settings, prog), not any of the new tabs added in 6.5 and up. You can kind of use HDWalls to make the others for you, it just involves some extra steps in renaming and replacing certain manila files.
hey sirphunkee.... tried it exactly as you said and it doesnot work.. i created a slider cab, ran the cab, the tp2 said it installed it but no change.
i was told that with sense 2.5, hdwall cannot create a slider because of sizing issues. but if you are successful with this then i must be missing something still. i would like to add the additional slider as well but i am not that skilled with this phone or the hdwall program.
its definitely worth creating this slider because there is not a better set of transparent icons out there to use.
