I won't know where they have gone, but as far as I know, CHT is not compatible with animated backgrounds.

I have tried to search and find what to do to install a theme that has icons, and cannot figure it out. Do I need some program that everyone is using? Also on dialer skins how are those installed?
Do skins kill battery life or use alot of system resources?
Thanks
What theme? If its HTC home, you install the .cab file from the phone or sync the phone to pc and double click .exe.
If its a .tsk file, Put the file in the windows directory of the phone then go to today screen and select from there.
Skins dont use a lot of system resources UNLESS they are actively doing something( S2U2 for example if you install a moving gif as your wallpaper) as they are just being used instead of the originals.. Cheers...
yea, u need to be a wee bit more clear as to what you want, you're probably new and dont know the right terms, so maybe if you posted some pics we could understand a bit better what u are trying to achieve.
this is the style im looking for http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=51534&d=1190401691 with the big clock and some icons below. I think that I will need a plug in to show the icons. I installed a tsk theme but it only changed the color of the top and bottom bars, but did not show the large clock or icons like that one. I saved it to the memory card, not within a folder and I was able to browse find and install it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry Im New
thanks,
Nicholas
that big clock is the htc home plugin, which you can download all over this forum, or at www.pocketemu.com which incidentally also has another program called htc home customizer, which would be the easiest way to customize the home icons. It may not have that exact theme you are looking for, so the best way to get that theme is to ask the person who posted that screenshot

Ditto. Welcome to the addiction...I'm lucky to keep the same clock and icons for more than a week...
Hi. I have seen the Original wallpaper but not in black and grey but black and red. I now searching for hours but cant find it again.. Does anyone remember the link? Else a link for the clasic original . (I will paint it..) Thanks ,
you could take it off of your phone then put it into a program like photoshop and overlay it with red.
TF3D Wallpaper..
Something like this?
Not something like this, exactly this !
Thanks . I know i have download it some days before ,but now i have spend hours without finding it..
So how would you go about getting that to be the background on tf3d? Would you have to use a program or could you just put it in a manila file and if so which one?
TF3D wallpaper..
Easy, place the wallpaper in 'My Pictures' on your device. Scroll along in TF3D until you come to settings, choose Wallpaper and when a box opens saying 'Choose default yes/no' choose 'no'. This will take you through to your pictures and you can click on the one you want and it will change it for you to your homescreen. To go back just click the 'yes' in the default wallpaper box.If you want to make your own wallpaper the size is 480x640....
N.B. If you SEARCH on this site for mUn BackgroundMode.CAB and install this CAB to your device you can have your Homescreen Wallpaper on all of your TF3D pages.
Sweet thanks! I knew about the home screen I was looking for how to change all the backgrounds.
Howdy, its a long story but I have ended up with a 2nd TP2 on T-Mob UK but the handset is unbranded and has a cack purple wallpaper which I cannot seem to get rid of anywhere.
My other TP2 is Vodafone branded so I installed the 'Black' cab and it is great.
I want to know how to get the plain (mainly) black wallpaper off the black themed phone onto my unbranded TP2 with purple homescreen.
I have searched but I can't even find a download for a stock HTC black wallaper or owt !
Sorry if this is confusing, I have confused myself !
Hi
As far as I remember, the files you're looking for have a .tsk extension. The stock themes are usually stored in the \Windows\ folder of the device (not storage card). Look in your Today settings for the current theme name and look for that theme name .tsk file under \Windows\.
You can either copy the required file to \Windows\ on the device or to the root of the storage card on your 2nd TP2 to have the theme visible on the Today settings screen...
i am using the attached .tsk file. makes everything black/white.

Anyone happen to have a screenshot of this so i can see what it is before i try? ta.
I tried using a pure black jpg image as wallpaper. Turns out that only the HTC Home Tab would display it. But all the other tabs still have the original background from the Telstra branded ROM.
elab,
you helped me out a while ago with changing some settings so the background on the home screen is the same as the other tf3d tabs.
This is a copy of the thread adress, follow ur instructions on post 3 and use total commander to do so. The first folder to navigate to to find the registry settings is //Plugins

Download HDWalls (HDWall_v0.28b) seems to be the most stable http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503511
1. Open it up on your PC, and run HDWALLS.EXE.
2. Click on slider on the side task bar. Right there are the original icon for the slide. select then create cab.
3 Now under options check the box to include slider bar
done... convert and create cab, and install. if you get confused, just followed hdwalls instructions. im sure there are people with links to cabs the way you may want it setup. my hd2 is pimped out thanks to HDWALLS. make sure to install hq patch.

I think what you're looking for there is the background itself, not the slider itself or the curtain behind it.
I believe the image below is the one you're looking for. I went ahead and cabbed it up in HDWalls using some settings that should work on the new stock tmo ROM. If you use this cab to make that image your background (it'll apply it to all tab backgrounds), you'll also need to install the HQ patch I've attached as well.
Let us know if this worked for what you needed

Ahh yes sorry, I didn't catch that you wanted that image on all tabs other than your home tab, with a separate image instead for that. I'm honestly not familiar with any of the wallpaper choosers that might be out there. However, you might want to take a look at BG4A (BG4All tabs)...I seem to recall that it will put backgrounds on the tabs but still let you pick a separate one for your homescreen, but I haven't used it in a long time and could be mistaken
i hae the same problem and its the biggest reason i hat the newest rom upgrade

Well you guys should all be running CHT on your devices anyways..that has an option to set an image for your tabs...in bothe 1.8.5 and 2.0...just download CHT and it will take care of that completely!
After updating my original German T-Mobile ROM from 1.72.111.4 to 3.14.111.1 (04666) GER with Manila 2.5.20181527.1, I get the same solid black background on all Sense tabs. This thread was the only search result that describes the problem.
HDWall v0.29b was not my first solution. Because I only want back my gray backgrounds.
Therefore, I installed the HQWallpaperPatch v1.30.
This was a successful attempt. All my gray backgrounds were there again. But now it was not possible to me to change the wallpaper of the home tab any more.
And the newly transparent look of the notification bar and soft bar is very ugly while working with normal applications.
Then, nevertheless after uninstalling the HQWallpaperPatch, I have tried out HDWall. But the resulting CABs were not compatible with my ROM. The wallpapers have not changed and the Sense UI became unstable. Only a hard reset/cold boot could solve the problems with Sense.
CHT is the acronym from "Co0kie's Home Tab". I do not need all that features. Hence, I have investigated to BG4all (Background for all tabs).
BG4all only replaces two files in the \Windows folder. 090a4ee8_manila includes a compressed script. I am not sure, why 3a8e04af_manila also must be replaced.
But there are many versions of this patch in the wild. I used m9editor to compare all shipped files with my original ones.
And I found a compatible version. This BG4all_Manila2.5.cab works without problems along with my ROM version.
So i installed cookies home tab and now my animated wallpapers are not working.. i tried messing with all the settings but for some reason nothing is workin.. when i got to apply wallpaper and select the animated wallpapers that came with the phone they still dont work.. So i downloaded hdwall and set it up with CHT and downloaded a dif animated wallpaper it still wont work... someone help me please!!!
animated wall papers wont work with cht it used to though i know that
