Hi:
I have a Cingular 8125 and I am trying to get more screen real estate. I recently saw a reg edit where you could remove the taskbar icons for the battery and wireless manager, however those registries don't seem to be available on my phone. Anyone know any secrets to get this done??
Also, I am trying for an all black background and in my theme generator, the bottom and top bars are black, but when I install them to my phone, they are grey. I am using theme generator 2.0 and TKCreator, but both don't work for me.
Thanks. Dan

Remove the init_tray from your start up folder - \windows\startup\
You may have to soft reset afterwards.
there's
idcnobar
that removes the bottom bar (which indicate what the left and right softkeys are used for)
it complete removes it, but the icons dont shift down till you slide your keyboard out and back.
The Comm Manager icon is still there.
I did remove the listed shortcuts from Startup and the conn manager icon still insists on being in the tray.

Okay, I was able to get what i want by using HHC Today Customizer, The only problem im having is on the today screen theres a thin grey line splitting up icons like on the main screen.. The email, sms, and missed call icons are devided by a thin grey line. this same grey line devides up icons in the other sections of my today screen as well. How do i get rid of it?
Also does anyone know how to change the buttons on the bottem, I think their called softkeys. Theirs two of them, Mine say calendar and contacts.
once again a search would suffice ur needs...to my knowledge...theres no way of getting rid of those separator lines...theres things u can do to change the colour of it to best match your walpaper...and please search...on how to change your softkeys...a search for advancedconfig will solve your problem
I've tried searching the entire forum and just this section without and success specific to TF3D. I'm looking for a fix to make the bottom slider curtain transparent in all tabs. Right now it's only transparent on the main screen (clock/weather). If there's a fix that includes the top curtain too that would be great. TIA all.
This app worked great for me.

If you want the top curtain transparent use the Manila 2.1 option. The other one made the top bar white for me. Backup your current settings in the app before using it in case you mess something up you didn't want to!
Thanks. Does this fix require installation of the whole tweaking program or do you know if there's a separate cab for just the transparent slider curtain?
Basically you install the program, run it, go to the Utility tab and perform a backup. (Takes a little while) Then on the Customize tab you can apply changes to the top and/or bottom curtains. For full transparent on both, just select Bottom Curtain then highlight Full Transparent and then hit Deploy. Do the same for Top Curtain except I had to use TF3D v2.1 Full Transparent instead of the regular one. Soft reset after and it works perfectly.
1. Im looking for a top menu bar. ("start" bar) thats clear so my background is behind it, or a link to some bars of different bars.
2. Im also having a little trouble with themes. in the tabs, which ever one is open the icon is not in the bottom bar, the rest are there when they are not open. any ideas?
3. I don't know if its possible but if there is a another theme option in the todays settings, like Windows mobile 6.1, htc black. it changes the color of highlighted stuff.

Hello. Long time lurker, first time poster.
So, I want to have my wallpaper of choice on only my home screen, and have the weather animated as well. I'm running Verizon's official 6.5 upgrade with, as I understand it, Sense 2.1 (I haven't been able to confirm that the way I could on the old ROM, though).
I made a cab of the wallpaper with the nearest I could find to the proper settings, which was TouchFLO v2.1 - No Compression - Home Tab. HDWall tells me that I need Co0kieMonster's Patch. I found it here: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529730, though it definitely seems to be meant for the Blackstone, and not my Rhodium. Not able to find anything better, and not knowing my specific version of Sense, I tried a number of his cab's, starting with the Verizon specific one, and then running through all of his 2.1 variants. At the best, there was no noticeable change on my phone. At worst, the clock would only display white boxes with bits of black in them (and wouldn't flip up to show the text version), the Call History became 0 Missed Calls and my calendar appointments wouldn't show up on the home screen. Trying different settings for home screen only in HDWall either resulted in no change to my wallpaper, or the icon bar at the top being weirdly skinned or turning green (which makes sense, since I wasn't using the correct settings). HDWall works fine creating a wallpaper for all my tabs, but I don't want that.
So then, does anyone have a solution to suggest? I can't imagine I'm the first one to have tried to do this with this particular configuration. Any advice and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I believe this is what you are looking for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503511&highlight=hdwall
This has the patch included already.
If you want to change the wallpaper of the home screen without affecting other tabs then go to settings on TF3D and change the home wallpaper. Then install this cab, soft reset, and the animated weather will be on top of any custom wallpaper...

Gah! That was sooooo easy! It was just a cab! I'd put probably three hours into getting this to work, and there was a cab for it. Thank you so much!!
So now I have another question:
When I installed the cab, the top curtain on my home screen disappeared. I was thrilled about this, because I was going to get rid of it next anyway. As a result, though, the clock shifted upwards to fill the space (around 1/4"), but the weather animations didn't. In most cases this doesn't mean anything. However, when it's sunny and there's the lens flare, it comes from just below the sun instead of inside it. When icicles form on the clock, they're happening a quarter of an inch below the top edge of the clock, rather than on the top edge.
These are minor issues, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a fix. Thanks in advance...
I already have weather animation on mine. I didn't add anything. Is this stock T-Mobile 6.5/2.1?
Mine's the stock Verizon 6.5/2.1. My issue isn't that I don't have the weather animations (I do, both with the default wallpaper and, thanks to the above cab, with custom wallpapers as well), but that the clock on the homepage isn't where the phone thinks it should be, which results in the weather animations being misplaced a bit.

I don't think it will, no. The weather clock on the homescreen is limited to WinMo 6.5 and Sense UI, as far as I know, and this cab is for that.
Once your official ROM upgrade hits though, you should be able to use it, so maybe save it until then. It shouldn't be more than a month and a half before it's released.
