You must have HTC_Home instaled...
Chose the color and icons that you want!
!!!!! -> Before installing new colour icons, the Transparent bezel fix, HTC Home plugin spotlight or the Coloured clock digits, YOU MUST disable the HTC Home plugin from your today screen (untick box in start>settings>personal>today>items>HTC home).
Replace the files of your instalation (normaly in "Windows" folder or in some cases in the folder "HTCHome"...) if you can't find the files to replace it's because you don't have HTC_Home installed!
you can only install one clock colour at a time. Soft reset to make sure, then retick the box to display your new today screen!
I hope you like it!
Here is a screenshot as an example...
Thye HTC Home Customizzer posted in these forums does that and a whole lot more, and it replaces everything for you.
Thanks Tunekas for ur creativity!!!!!
thank's dear for your support
Great work!!
Saw ur homescreen snap shot, i wonder how did u get the NEW SMS softkey on ur main screen? wats the file link to it?? i had installed the softkey editor already, but i do not know wats the file to link to NEW SMS??
It's done ...
With the help of gordic, wrather, Seelenfresser, BenThon and all the other thread-readers I made an update of my "Black & Red" and after that I was able to convert it completey to "Black & Blue"
"Black & xColor V2.1"
Until now there's only a Basic-Edition of each color version. The original HTC Black Theme has to be installed on your diamond before you are installing one of my themes.
(Didn't try other themes as base but I think it would look a little bit funny *g*)
So far I tested the theme with Mossis ROM 2.1 (Base-ROM: 1.93.x).
Files:
Basic_Black_xxx_V2_x.zip
All files are in one folder inside the zip-file, so they can be copied to the windows-directory off the reel.
Basic_Black_xxx_V2_x_separated.zip
All files are in separated folders inside the zip-file, so you can choose which files you copy to the windows-dir.
Instruction:
Unpack the *.zip-file you want and read the installation.txt.
(If something is wrong or you need some help please let me know!)
Changelog:
V2_1 [17.09.2008]
- two new color-changed images of the camera
- newer *.tsk-files
I'm not so happy with the calendar-icon, but until now I didn't get a better version of it. Maybe someone else could help to make it more similar to the other icons?
#1
(reserved for further update etc.)
the file is too big ?
try with rapidshare.com
[good work!]
[thanks!]
That's strange because the file isn't bigger than 8MB (that should be the maximum file size of zip-files).
But now I've uploaded it with rapidshare
Very nice work!
Will download....
Does this also change the today screen and other non TouchFlo elements like buttons, captions etc. (globally of course)?

I think it does because I changed also many graphics that have nothing to do with TF3D, for example the Screen if you connect your diamond with USB etc.
And there is also the vodafone.tsk, which makes the "menu marker" red for example.
@NisseDILLIGAF
Thank you!
nice job thanx
Thanks for the theme.
You were faster than me in changing everything green into red. One thing I could not find in your basic zip file was a red highlighted internet globe.
Thanks to the help of NisseDILLIGAF who pointed me in the right direction I was able to change it. Now the theme is perfect!
Win refuses to overwrite the manila-files. Could somebody make from this a real theme-file. The red is amazing color with black.
Theme File
just installed, the red & black looks so cool!
GREAT WORK...thank you
really fine themes, one of the best i tried today
but a few questions:
i made a roll back to my standard theme (with TF3D config 0.6.7) but now i have some graphic problems, e.g. TF-volume is still red instead of original green, also the buttons for choosing between ActiveSync- and external drive-mode if connected to PC. And the (green) button beside the active keyboard, if i want to change half to full or phone etc., is fully lost
Are there any options to get the old status back without a hardreset?
thank you for your answer
ok, ive tried this, but im not satisfied, altough i would love to have a black red theme.
What would make this theme perfect for me is, that it should be exactly as the original touchflo, htc black theme, only where default theme has green colour, it should have red colour, that would be perfect theme for me.
also, i restored default theme, and still i have in volume control red coloured bars, which i can't restore to defaults, which is not ok.
i tried to delete manila files with resco explorer, but says i cant delete files, because they are in the memory. Any suggestion how to do this ?
thank you

Ok, solved it by myself. There is a little bug in TF3D Config-Tool, which forgot to delete three files after choosing a Theme-Restore:
- HTCUSBtoPCPopUp.png
- SIPMenu_SelectIcon.bmp
- HTCVolumeControl.png
After deleting these file and automatic replacement of the original TF-Files by WM (soft-reset!) everything looks ok again
THANKS ! i am happy again
dunno where i saw it, but is there a possibility, to change background on all menus ?
Great theme! Love balck&red
Only issue I have is cannot see the writings in the manilla settings/sound properties, it's only me? something wrong?
Thanks
Black font on black background, got this Prob, too.
If you highlight it with the red "Cursor" you can read it...
Choosing new programs has this small prob also

This fixed all my white font and weird font problems...I am on a Touch Pro though, but it may help you too.
Grey Taskbar
Go to start -> Settings -> Today and select the "Htc black" .tsk
(if it is already selected, choose an other first [e.g.Windows-standard] and switch then back)
Note: Because I still do NOT own a Diamond PRO myself, supporting this Device isn't easy...
the background is much better, but its going to be tough getting rid of my sprint theme.
eehm... Not really the original...
or maybe htc stole my background image squares!!

Hi,
can you post here yours background image. I want it use as today background.
Thank you

but u know that it's a manila file... not a wallpaper...
unzip and copy the manila file to windows....
Hi!
Whats your TF3D Config version number what you use with 1.93 ROM??
Thx!
Not suitable for Raphael yet.
Thanks for the good work.
I installed it over my T-Mobile (horrific Pink theme) MDA Vario IV and looks good. Exept for the landscape screen when the keyboard is slided open. Then the orginal icons are not there at all. Perhaps something for the next update. Thanks in advance.
I noticed the same thing on my Voda branded TP. But the black theme looks absolutely brilliant. I am not going back to the original red ever.
I'm trying to modify my theme on the new 1.93 Rom from the US 3G version Diamond... I'm using Total Commander to try to modify the read only permission sets of the Manilla files so I can write over them. However it doesn't seem to be working. Are there other programs available? Trying to update to use NisseDILLIGAF background
you have to disable Touch Flo first, then just copy the manila file to windows using total commander

Do u have HTC black in Today themes?
I've attached a the HTC Black.tsk, just unzip, copy it to windows and try to activate it in Today...
Thanks,
Seemed all I had to do was select a different theme, then reselect the htc theme......BINGO.... phone looks fantastic. I am now going to see what other things I am incapable of doing. I know that I will have further questions, and that I am a bit of a techno-cretin, but I hope you guys will continue to help. This is a great forum by the way, very helpful indeed.
Is it possible to change the taskbar icons on the Snap? I've done it on my TP2 but not sure if/how I can on my Snap.
Any help please?
search for roloracers colored top bar icons in the excalibur forum
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it but it didn't work
I had trouble with Roloracer's implementation too on my stock Dash 3G. But Ookba's 3volution ROM has a great built-in set, and once installed, you can easily overwrite with Roloracer's icons if you like them better.
You need the files from these two comments:
Roloracer
NGRZ28
INstall both and then go to your homescreen settings and choose the panel: Sliding Panel NRG
Mayb you have to optimize it with cHome.
It's working on my stock [GSM] HTC Snap...
Hi everyone
Can anyone tell me if it is posibble to change the skins on the diamond2 (the newest model).
What kind of program will i need?
i have downloaded the program from this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392
and want to use the skins in this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425974
Can i do this om my diamond 2?
If not can someone please tell this newbey how i can change my skins on the htc diamond 2
Thank you so much
hi,
no you can't because the skins you pointed out are for TF2D (manila2D) only.
Nevertheless it's possible to change the skin : choose TF3D2.1 skins for your Diam2
The best is to install themes cabs : copy the cab to your ppc then click on it with your explorer (total commander by example) to install it and soft reset (reboot)
Well thank you very much for your reply!
I typt tf3d2.1 in the search field here on the site but i did not find any files.
Can you point me in the right direction? where can i find that kind of themes?
Thank you again
hi,
First of all your Diam2 (topaz) is WVGA (480x800px screen) so you have to verify in thread title if the theme is really made for WVGA screens.
Second, your UI is called TF3D2.1 (or manila 2.1) here on XDA : that means you can install full themes made for TF3D2.1 or icons only (from bottom bar) made for TF3D (the first diamond or Blackstone). The best is to try different themes because there is no general rules : some icons sets will work but others won't
The last version TF3D2.5 from LEO device (manila2.5) won't work with your Diam2 stock rom.
there are different ways to get skins for your Diam2 :
- into the dedicated Topaz section : HERE (this one was made especially for your Diam2 so all the stuffs you'll find into this section will work on your Diam2)
- Into general dev&hack section you have the windows themes : HERE
(this is general section so all the themes in this section won't work : verify WVGA TF3D2.1)
- the most important skins databases for TF3D are for Diamond1 (HERE) & HD-Blackstone section (HERE) (because they are older than your D2)
By example, these ones should work on your Diam2 :
- Snoopy
(choose WVGA, don't install VGA or manila2.5 cabs)
- Dusk for manila2.1
- Coquette
- Vector
- my TF3D icons HERE
BTW skins & themes are mentioned by [SKN] or [THE] for a better readability in thread title
One last thing : never install a theme cab on a previous one, always remove old theme cab before installing a new one ^^
Hi thank you again for your reply you made me a happy woman haha
Tonight (its 10 a.m. here) i gonna to install your black icons on my diamond 2
You made what was gibberish for me a normal language thank you so much
I really liked your black vi.7 icons. I downloaded the file and i am gonna install it tonight!
I let you know if it worked! and i am gonna add a thanks on your thread ofcourse
Can i also instal the v2.2 icons? i liked those evenmore
Yes, all my SenseLIKE TF3D icons work with TF3D1/TF3D2.1
well i got something strange it does not fully work on my diamond
How i installed it..
i installed the cab on my memory card. then i installed the program and turned my telephone off and on.. and i tryed to soft reset it.
Is this the right way to install it?
The problem is that the first icon stays in color and the pictures of the icons do not fully fit in the icons. you can not see the full icon.
Do you have the new TF3D2.1 Sense (weather clock) ?
uhmm i have windows 6.5 with the newest rom update from the htc website. the rom update that change the colors the icons. And i do have the weather clock.
oh and maybe good to know.. i have diamond tweak installed on my phone
cant see to get the m mobiler working 2 :s
got the mobiler working but the front is not fully showing.. i hope you got the idea..
you can see the top of the icons
i attatched a print screen
it seems like the icons are to big for the slide bar
hi,
thanks for the screenshot : I can see your issue now ^^
thanks again! gonna try it tonight..
Hope it works!
Ill let you know
yes i worked
Looks so nice!!!
Thank you so much!
Now im gonna try to figure out if i can change that green color that you see in the phone. that little green ball wich tell you how much emails you got and in the organizer.. really dont like the green color..
Well anyway you helped me solve my problem with the colored icons!!
Many many thanks
if you know the answer to my question can you tell me how :$
All most afraid to ask haha you helpt me already so much..
hi,
Well, for Email bubble notification, the most important collection to my knowledge is the one made by CMYLXGO at PPCGeeks : HERE
To change green highlights to blue you can take a look at DJCedric or Henk2484 BlueHighlights
