Just got my HD2 and would like to remove/make transparent taskbars and curtains etc...
My question which I have not found an answer to is do I need to SPL, use different ROM etc or can I use the mod cabs on a out of the box handset?
You dont need to flash your device at all to install cab files.
Search for Touch X collection , you 'll found every thing you need
Thanks guys, much appreciated!

Okay i'm a complete newbie to all this stuff.. and have tried reading through several posts but i really don't get what to do because theres too many different things to do! i just want the phone to not have the o2 layout and instead that nice black layout... without the phone going really slow (because i've read when you change the theme everything gets slow? )
much help would be appreciated! i.e. what i need to download and how i install it...
thanks a lot guys
to change the theme to black you need to change 2 things -
1. the windows mobile theme (a .tsk file) to complete black (either you have it on your phone, or search for it, or say, i'll post it)
and
2. the touchflo3d theme. for that you need to install tf3d config on your phone (you'll find one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405749 ) and download a black theme (.theme file) or any other you want, e.g. from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409901 or you can just search the forums for more themes...
but i understand your desperation, the o2 theme (i have german o2) really is ugly
umm i would be greatful if you could upload the windows black theme
and also how do i install these things? like what steps do i take...? do i use a program...? and where do i put the config file.. the theme file.. and windows mobile theme etc... i'm soo clueless
and so if i do all these... it'll look like the original HTC diamond and not the crap o2 layout?
thanks a lot in advance
I have done this to my Ignito and it slows it down a bit. But ha its better than the poo o2 put on it. o2 have always F****D up good HTC phones by putting rubbish software or themes on them. God knows what makes them do it.

see post #2
-the windows .tsk theme (attached) you put in the windows folder on your device and change the theme in start->settings->today (on first tab)->htc black (newly added)->ok
-the tf3d config tool needed to change the theme - put the .cab (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=102057&d=1217092240) anywhere on the device and run it from there to install
-to install tf3d theme, follow instructions from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2428664&postcount=1 (the black theme is also in that post)
I agree about O2 ROMs - buggy as hell and slow too. I flashed my Artemis with the original HTC ROM and it went from a crash a day to no crashes in a year. I'm now looking at the HTC Diamond too - or the O2 ignitus at least (O2 describe this on their website as a phone manufactured by O2!) - has anybody laoded the HTC ROM over the O2 one, and are there any guides to follow?

If you have loaded a a original htc rom on you artemis then this is pretty much the same. there are hundreds of guides. Install hard spl and then flash using ruu. and about the ignito being manufactured by O2 i dont know but it is the diamond DIAM100 and yes i have tried my self to flash 1 and works with no problems. for guides go to rom development section and check the stickies.
This Morining...
I sat and looked at my XDA ignito and thought 'wow that looks crap and tacky' and within 25 mins it looks awesome. thanks for the posts My phone is now black and sexy =]
music player
Any idea why the playlist / artist / album etc. tabs have gone from music player after this process ?
*edit, tried another tf3d (think it was tlr.manilla)
got me tabs back but start menu is blue ! all else fine though
Any ideas, looked and looked and searched ...
o2 xda - 1.93 stock rom - tf3d config 0.67
Hi,
I am searching for a cab file to add stocks tab in the TF3D. Can someone help me please? Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Sundar N.
Try the Lantis OS v1.00 - v3.01 Rom. You can find it here
It's super fast and one of THE best ROMS Coocked on XDA and you can add the stocks rom.
Good Luck
.cab
I think he's just wondering if he can install the stocks-tab into manila, without installing a completely different ROM.
I'm not sure, one thing I know is that you could try the HD Manila 3d (XBmod).
this thread
Thanks Guys. I am aware of the xbmod. But it takes 20MB of space even if you install it in SD card. I was just looking for a CAB that installs the stocks tab to an existing TF3D. I am not a techie and not sure if something like that is possible and exists. I will keep searching.
If you use the search tool im sure you will find a Thread that has what you are looking for. I know there is because I did that same thing.
Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. Got my HTC Touch Diamond recently and wants to change the TouchFLO 3D theme (have different colours for the tabs, clocks and all). I have not upgraded the firmware of my phone. I have read alot of threads available here but I still cant figure out how to install new themes to my Touch Diamond. Confused of all the things about ROMs. I hope someone can guide me on the steps to change the themes on my phone.
So these are my questions:
1) What software do I need to change the themes of my Diamond? Like colours of the tabs clocks and all? (customize my TouchFLO 3D interface) Is it the Diamond TF3D Config Setup v0.6.7 or something?
2) Do I have to change or upgrade the firmware of my phone? I've heard many names of the different ROMs but I don't know what are they.
3) Any avenues or threads already set up to understand all these? If yes, please provide me the link.
I would like to express my gratitude and thanks to anyone who can help me!

First before asking the question of firmware, post your present firmware.
Next if you want to upgrade your rom, Check it in the Diamond rom development section, the latest hit is 2.03 or dutty's which r generally awesome.

Hello everyone, like i said i am new here and i just got a HTC touch diamond and I was looking around this site and it is just overwhelming. I mostly just want to start out changing the tf3d themes. From what i have read there is manilla files? I do not know what these are. I just downloaded diamond TF3d config setup v.0.6.7 will this help me put themes on my phone easily? I just dont want to mess my phone up. Here is some info about my phone. I have Ntelos as a provider and i goto settings and device info. and it says i have rom version: 1.22.557.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you all!!!

They only way i know how to change themes is with TF3d Config. Search the forum for TF3D Themes. Download a few copy them to your Storage,Then go to TF3D. Click on the Appearance tab,Select the path (the folder where all your themes are saved) Then simply click apply. This will apply the new theme. It take about 5 min tops then the phone will soft reset and your new theme will appear. This will not damage your phone at all. if your still stuck let me know i will put up some screen shots for you...
