Hi,
How can I install a totally black theme in my P3600 running WM6. I need the black theme that you can find in LVSW ROMs, a theme that covers everything, dialler, commman, etc, no only the home screen and few bits more.
Cheers,
Alonso
This one is great, it covers all menus, windows and splash screen. Only problem is if you change your theme you can't revert back to this one without uninstalling/reinstalling it.
Or this one from LVSW's ROM to be more specific.

Oh damn, I read this too late. I installed the black theme, but I didn't like it. So I changed to HTC default theme (the green one). Unfortunately the dialpad and the PIN pad are still "black". What can I do to get the complete default theme?

Soft reset normally sorts it out. Often when you change themes they don't fully complete till the next S/R.
The point I was making is that if you want to go back to black trin, choosing the 'Black' theme in the Today>Settings won't do it for you.
2 good man... cool theme....Thx

I love my black theme - screen shot to follow later.

GREAT THEME! for my trinity!been looking for a good black theme for a long time!thank you!
If you're willing to flash a new ROM, FInixNOver has just released a new all black ROM that, based on all his other ROMS, is bound to be superb:
[ROM][WWE][04.03.2009]FInix3.7/3.7L-OS5.2.20764 B20764.1.4.3)[ONLINE]

where do we place the file?windows folder?
Thanks, for new guy, how do you install themes, please ?
Can anyone teach me how can I change all the green thing (the selected tap, selected items, selected phone no., ...etc, but not the one in Manila) to grey or other color? Can it be done on changing registry? Search for long time but still cannot fix, can anyone help on that? Thanks in advance!!
I've just found a registry in HKCU/software/microsoft/today/HTC Black.tsk
there's some keys call "color_highlighttext"/ "color_highlight" ..... etc
Is that the one? How to change to grey color??

I'm interested too... I hate the green on black background
Green tap
As i know that manila files at the windows directory managing the view of the screens. If you use the manila editor you can change the colour and the icons. As seen also the green bar or taps as mentioned.
The highlight colors are in the .tsk file I think. Change your today theme and see if that changes.

Carty..
Yeah but I want to keep the today theme and change the green stuff tu grey... any help?
Black Focus
This will do the trick
Thanks ... I will try it now...

Using BaseHueExpress, you change away from HTCBlack.tsk to any other theme, (like Windows Default - BaseHueExpress seems to have no effect when using the HTC theme) and then once you change the BaseHue it changes the colours of the focus too like in File Explorer , but not manilla.
Hope it helps

I too would love an orange focus!
Nice and fluoro/fiery.
EDIT: I am creating a cab to have all highlights turned to orange.
Hi all,
Find attached my cab (easy install) and zip for orange focus/highlights.
EDIT: This will change all menu highlights and 'touched' highlights to orange.
Cheers.
Thanks looks great!

I've found a software call "UI Tweaker", it's works on Diamond and I've change all green tap to dark grey already (except the manila you have to do it another way)
But still 1 question, how can I change the green tap on phone skin? It's still there... any ideas guys??
How about a nice bright Red
Could you also please make a dark / deep purple as well? Thank you

Hi guys,
Since I've skinned my Vodafone branded Diamond with the HTC Black skin using TF3D Config, my top and bottom bars (where it says start and the manila softkeys) are some kind of shiny metallic grey. Is there an easy way that I can make these plain black again? It would look a lot better with the theme.
I have attached a screenshot to illustrate my problem.
search the forums it has been asked before
I would love to but I wouldn't know what to search for, how are those bars called?

search for 'Glossy Black Bars'
im pretty sure hes not searching for glossy black bars. but more like "classicblack.tsk"
assuming what youre asking for is the flat black bars.

As per title really, i'm happy with the functionality and layout etc etc of my device, i just want to change the colour scheme to be as below, i've spent ages trying to find where the theme is located but can't, please can someone help me with where it is and how to change it

That looks like stock photos of the unlocked GSM Rhodium running a stock windows 6.1 and Sense 2.1. So there isn't a theme really. Just a stock phone with a black background.
I can't find the black background anywhere, it certainly isnt on the device.
That background is embedded in the Manila files; it's the same as on all other tabs of Manila.
You can get it by editing the registry. Find the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In that key change the value for "DefaultHomeBackgroundPath" to an empty string (you may ned to go to the settings tab after that, and try to change the wallpaper; it should then ask you if you want to use the default wallpaper).

I can get the wallpaper and top and bottom bars black but nothing happens to the touch flo, it stays defaulted to red and white, so by turning touch flo off (which i dont want to do) i get black wallpaper

I don't blame you! I've had a bit of a search and I can't really find anything that'll revert it back to the HTC stock theme
You may have to use a different theme - or Hard SPL and flash a new ROM if you're up for that?

gonna have a go at that later on, what would i need to do after i've done all those steps? would i then need to find themes etc (idiot alert)
This looks like a mix of old and new.
The red taskbar should be able to change to a different colour by using a different theme file (.tsk) Download this file and save it to My Documents, then apply it by going to All Settings > Personal > Today

I feel your pain, thissy. My AT&T Tilt 2 came with a blue theme that had to go. Being a n00b, I had no idea how do to any of that stuff.
After reading and searching, I was able to change almost everything without flashing a new rom. I think you need to start with getting Max's TF3D theme maker, found here. Become familiar with that thread, and all the additional components you can add into Max's program. LOTS of good stuff out there to tweak the look of your phone.

Try the things other people suggest first if you're unsure about flashing a new ROM. But, if you do decide to flash one, say Ark's ROM here:
http://htcpedia.com/Rhodium-AF-manila-2-5-VX3/soft/htc-rhodium-rom.html?page=1
You wouldn't need to add any themes because it would look like this:
Plus you'd have all the benefits of Manila 2.5.
Hope this helps.
cheers everyone for your help
no doubt i'll be back at some point for some more nooby help
See if you like it. It is White Metal 2.5 2013 for a 6.5 build. Tell me what you think.
Also including a different contact icon if you want it. Not necessarry but a different style in case you do not like the contact tab with the human outline.
I am running mighty rom Windows 6.5 with Manila 2.5.2013
I was not happy with the centering of the Calendar date on the tray icon-so I included a cab with the fix.
Facebook Tab. You must already have the tab in order to use this. I installed it from Meltwaters and then alterred his manila for tabs
lubbad85, you are my hero! I have been looking for this everywhere. I don't know why but for some reason I've liked this style of slider ever since I've seen it on another carrier's phone.
I installed it asap and I like how it works! It works like a charm, I love it. Great job lubbad85, you rock! The only thing I would probably do is just better the screen icons when you change to a different tab on the slider. Those stock white ones will do but I would just see if I could replace them with any other better icons. Just my personal opinion. Other than that, you created a beautiful slider!
Quick question, I'm running C0okie's Home Tab. How does that extra notification bar appear? (The one on top of the actual sider)

In the options for cookies home tab you can put the extra notification bar. I think under miscelaneous The bar is a bit redundant though.
Glad you like the slider. Give me an example of what kind of slider you really want. If you give me a direction I can build one. Manila is very forgiving. If you screw it up you have only to delete the manila file that you put into windows and the phone's ROM will build it back the way it was before the new manila was used.

I've been looking around in C0okie's Home Tab for the past 40 minutes and I believe I've gone through the whole editor twice and I still cannot find the setting which enables the extra notification bar. I feel like a noob or just looking for something that isn't there. I'm running v1.8.5.

I got it! Thank, yet again! As far as the slider goes, it works like a charm! I really don't have any other suggestions for it as of right now. Maybe later as time goes by and I think of something. But if you implement any improvements or make any changes to it please post it up, I will gladly test it out. Thank again!
lubbad85, I found a small little defect that you might consider. When I slide to a desired tab on my touch flo, I find that the tab icon I chose has a blurry icon. It looks like as if there is another lighter icon behind the primary icon. It's just a little annoying and tends to cross my eyes after a while. lol. Check it out in the attachment to understand what I'm talking about.
Nice work bro! Would you consider adding icons for Facebook and Call History tabs please?

This slider really fits the "old" Sense 2.5 skin, however it has got some images that could be a bit more polished... Ach, and some icons could be a little re-sized, because they aren't this same size. Anyway overall the experience is great! So keep up this wonderful work, first time that I like something that isn't made by ShowTime7.
right.

Hi there, I downloaded and installed the theme, but I dont know how to change the theme, i hate to ask but how exactly do I apply the theme? I tried Star->Settings->Today, but the theme is not on the list of available themes.

You're going to run the .cab file from your storage card and install it onto your device when prompted to. Immediately after the slider is installed it is going to ask you to restart so the changes can take effect. You hit "yes" or "ok" (Not sure which option it gives you) Then, once the device restarts and turns on, the slider will appear and should be already installed automatically. You shouldn't have to do any other additional setting changes after you restart so the slider takes effect.
Hmm I installed all 3 cabs and it just told me "white metal 2.5 2013.cab was successfully installed on your device" (same thing with the other 2) but it didn't prompt me if I wanted to restart the device.
Any ideas why? this blue at&t theme is ok but this B&W Metal theme looks amazing.
Thanks

You just want the sense tab-in other words you already installed the other files neccessary for the tab? So just the tab icons?
If so here is the cab for just the tab sense icons in white to match the set. I cannot test it since I have not installed the control files for this tab.
