TF3D Editting

Is it possible to edit the Manila files somehow to prevent the screen from dimming when you use the slider to switch screens?
Try This
If you are talking about removing the black shade that comes up when switching tabs, look in the Diamond forums here at post #6: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436867
I have not tried it, but it should work on the HD. If anyone knows differently, please say so.
EDIT:
Yep. Works. Very confusing visually for me, though. For future reference, the manila edits over on the Diamond forums tend to work on the HD, so you can search there, or a general search of the entire site.

That's great thanks. I see what you mean about it being confusing. It is hard to read if you have a light-colored wallpaper.
The reason I wanted this was I had installed the NoCurtains cab which removed the grey bars at the top and bottom of the TF3D screen, but then when I slide through the screens the middle bit of the screen goes grey but at the bottom and top where the "curtains" used to be you can see through to the wallpaper.

Cool. I think you can probably come up with a color scheme that works with this. I was messing around a bit, and found that it was really the white stock manila clock that made it hard to see, as I generally start to flip through the tabs from there. If the clock is black or smaller, etc. it works pretty nicely.

WOW, i gotta say that this looks amazing. I've seen a couple of your themes on a jpg layout you made before and this one is absolutely amazing.. I have been looking for one that i saw on that layout you made tho and i can't find it anywhere and hoping maybe you can help me out. I'm lookin for that theme you made thats composed of water. everything is basically made from water drops shaped in the form of the numbers and icons and the background is a rainy window i believe.
Regardless, this theme is absolutely gorgeous and will be tryin it out right now
Your themes look fantastic

Came up right away, thanks alot, i really appreciate it. I tried zitoun theme water, h2o, raindrops, everything but never tried rain lol first link was his 4shared link to download it.
great theme, i love the idea!! sadly i have a but though...
the top + bottom bars would need a different color and it was hard to actually "see" the tabs at the bottom ...
an update to those 2 and this would be my permanent theme!
thanks zaitoun for the theme..it's really great
but i would like to ask for something...i just installed the new HD Manila from XBMOD on my Touch pro...which version should i install the hd version or the diamond version and if possible add a call history icon to the theme
thanks alot ...waiting for your answer
Sorry but i can't customize all my themes for everyone it's too long...
And there is askin for pcm keyboard too :

looks great. I download it now..thx

Blue Skin Help Please

Hi!
New around here so please be patient.
My HD2 is also my very first Windows Smart Phone, so please excuse my lack of knowledge.
My query is this:
I'm looking for a skin/theme (I'm not sure) that will make all wallpapers/backgrounds to appear blue.
Do I need to install just wallpapers, or will there be more I need to do to give my phone the nice blue I'm looking for.
Could any of you guys also please let me know where to find such a thing, and how I need to go about to install everything.
I've tried for the last few days to go through all these pages looking for help, but I get a bit overwhelmed by everything.
I've already got the blue theme selected in my Today folder, but I'd like all the backgrounds to appear a nice deep blue.
Also, is there any way to make the boxes surrounding the home screen's software buttons disappear? I'd still like the descriptive functions to be there but without those boxes.
I'd really love everything to be a nice smooth blue.
I'm sorry to ask these questions that will probably be silly to you guys, but I'd really like to get my new phone the way I like it.
Thanks very much.
Stephen
..cheers everyone for all your help!
Superb!
To make the software icons transparent use Co0kies Home Tab Cab 1.6.1 together with his CHTEditor.
There is much written on the forums for having consistent backgrounds across all screens etc.
The link below will get you started on your background requirements.

Hope this helps.

Good to see sarcasm still has it's fans.
In regards to your 'theme', you'd be best off finding a background image with the colour you prefer then copying it to the phone, and selecting it as the background image in:
Settings -> Personalize
The transparent boxes around the quicklinks (I'm guessing thats what you mean)

Found from this thread after less than 2 mins searching in the "HD2 Themes and Apps" forum:

Thanks very much for all your help.

Taskbar & softkeys

I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. i am looking for a cab to make the taskbar and softkeys either all the way transparent or semi transparent. Also I tried downloading cabs for the taskbar icon and it totally flipped my phone out. I am using a stock ROM with CHT. It is kinda driving me bonkers. If not transparent but a beveled look would also work?! I am still kinda new but this is not my first ball!

Which taskbar icons are you trying? Those are often compatible (or not) with certain builds of windows, as opposed to a specific versions of sense.
To get the taskbar and softkey bars "transparent", your best bet is to use HDWalls, an app that can cab up a wallpaper for you, and it will skin those bars to match the wallpaper you chose. However, this is kind of a "cheat" since it doesn't really make them transparent...I haven't found any solutions that actually do that. HDWalls has a little bit of a learning curve and you'll need to install the HQ patch for it as well, but it's probably the best option.
You can also try THIS app...I haven't given it a shot yet, but it's on my list of things to try. Looks like it might be a good bit more complicated though, but you're welcome to give it a shot
Thanks
I think i tried brains taskbar and another one but no dice. I think it said they where for 6.5x

No prob The thing to do would be to look to see which build of 6.5 you have, and just read the notes carefully in the posts with the taskbars, to see if yours is listed as compatible. I think CHT can cause incompatibilities with some taskbars, just because some say they are specifically known to work with it. What carrier's stock ROM are you running? If it's the Tmo US ROM, I'm running the same, and I can let you know which taskbars have worked for me.

Best HD2 Sense Sliders ? Recommend yours

I've had the Dinik 1.7 so far and it was great, but no ereader support..
Now I am looking for replacement... The forum search doesn't bring much sliders, as most are stuck inside theme threads etc as an add-on so it's hard to find all...
Recommend a good slider ! (Could be GTX style, regular styles.. everything works)
Thanks !
gtx sliders, black or white are doing it for me right now, should pop up in a search, or for a bit of colour try rawrscarys neon sliders, theres a link in my sig. a good place to find things like sliders is the post your today screen thread, find one you like and see if that person will share it/ provide a link....
hope that helps....
