In the process of cleaning up my phone (HTC HD2), I deleted the weather wallpaper and all the other wallpapers. Oops!
I happen to be one of the few people out there who actually like the animated weather wallpaper--I think it shows off the phone nicely at a glance.
Does anyone know where I might download this again as a standalone (heck, even as a set of wallpapers!) so I don't have to hard-reset the phone to restore it?
NOTE: This is NOT the issue noted elsewhere with failure to launch the weather app. The weather app works fine and displays it, but I can't get the sunshine rays/wiper blade/etc that come with the wallpaper. All I need is the wallpaper!
Thanks!
Edit--Running Stock ROM 2.13.531.1 and Manila 2.5.20121412.2 . I've got Cookie's Mod, CHT Editor, and Bsb Tweaks installed also, though I doubt that makes any difference. Thx.
CHT/CHTE actually has an option to disable the weather animations that you're talking about, are you sure you didn't switch them off that way by accident?
Accidental Switch-off?
Yes, I'm sure I haven't accidentally turned off the animations. The wallpaper file associated with the animated weather (normally located in My Device\My Documents\My Wallpapers or My Device\Windows\Animated Wallpapers) is deleted. Not there. Trashed.
All I need/would like is a replacement of that file. Heck, if someone would be kind enough to upload it from their phone and make it available for me, that would suffice.

Understood, I just wanted to check on that before going through that for you. Below is a zip with both of those wallpaper folders you listed, copied off of my HD2.
Thanks very much!

After a strange sync session all my file in phone memory disappeared, including all my notes.
My system is fine, and the nothing was important on the note. However I do miss the included rainbow colored bubbles for my wallpaper. Call me old fashioned but I just like the ones included with the phone.
Anybody got back uped ones can e-mail me?
Please PM me and I'll send you my e-mail!
Thanks!
Which one of these ??
PS: I converted from png to jpg to reduce size

I'm using your touchflo3D theme right now (thanks btw) and love'd it if you could consider these 2 as the background for all taps!
does anyone know where the original wallpaper is located?
original (or better say your "current") wallpapers are /windows/st_water****
2 files: landscape and portrait
Can anyone advise me here. Im getting this error whenever i try to use the HDWallS program to apply a wallpaper...
"An error occured during installation: -2147024891"
But if I install the wallpaper cab directly then it works fine. Someone else in the actual HDWall Wallpaper archive thread (yeh i did search! ) said that its to do with the profile you select in the TouchFLO configuration of HDWall. But if the cab works directly is that right?
Id love to use this app as the wallpapers i have put on look sweet as. Not sure if any of these are conflicting it but i have installed...
- Co0kie HQWallpaperPatch (HQWallpaperPatch_v1.15_forManila2.1.cab) - because its linked in the HDWallS app as a needed patch.
- Tore Lervik Stock Homescreen AllBg HD (Stock Homescreen AllBg HD - Tore edition.cab) - because i wanted to show more calendar appointments on my home screen.
- Spikes MicNeo Taskbar Varient 3 v2 (Spike's__MicNeo_TaskBar_Varient_3_v2.cab) - because the standard taskbar is crap!
- MobileMatt Crystal Clock White (MobileMatt_CrystalClockWhite.cab) - To give it a see through effect.
- At0mAng Custom Slider Icons (At0mAng Custom Slider Icons.cab) - to replace the bottom icon set.
Got other stuff on of course but nothing else touches the looks or homescreen.
Any help really appreciated! Please help!

Do you have any of them apps installed that i do? Until (hopefully) someone replies who knows we might as well try working it out ourselves!
I don't know which apps you have installed? I got nothing special, only spb backup and resco explorer for now. I only got my device for 3 days now.

My apps were mentioned in my post. I only put down the ones which i thought were related. So things like task manager apps or sensor things i didnt think were important.
Its interesting though that you have only had it a couple days and have the issue. Are you with T-Mobile like me?
No my device is completely ubranded.
I installed also HQWallpaperPatch_v1.15_forManila2.1.cab
but that's the only same app i got like you.
same probleme for me :'(
I fixed it on mine (was a totally clean install before I installed HDWall) by using the app unlock cab. I've attached it for your convenience.
Hope that helps.
Tomas
Wow yes that works fine. Nice one. Not sure if that was mentioned in the original post, so apoligies if it was to anyone who cares for it But nice one mate!
SORTED!

Thanks mate, I didn't find this solution in the HDWall thread either but this got HDWalls working for me. Unfortunately CabViaActivesync still errors out. I wasn't seeing thumbnails for some reason though.
Yep that app unlock has sorted it for me too. However i've got a different problem, i wonder if anyone could help?
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5441408&postcount=858
sorry noob here, i use the hdwall app to install and only changes top and bottom bars. tried to install just cab and same thing.
I'm suprised not to find a request for this when searching. I need to increase the number of quick links on the Sense home tab. I've just used my last one and need some more.
Can anyone help with this?
Edit: Probably worth mentioning - I've already got the 4x4 quicklinks mod installed. I'm ideally looking for another page, but 5x5 will do for now
With Max Manila 2.519202525 Ultimate you can have up to 20 quick links.

Thanks, but it's overkill. I have had that installed, and I just didn't like it.
I'm sure there'll be some way to extend it, without having to add all the other stuff that comes in that mod.
Would be nice to have someway of having a second page you could flip down to (a bit like the iphone has flip across...)

My thoughts exactly, but that sounds like a massive reworkinging to me. I think to get 5x5 would simply be a case of someone "in the know" modding the existing manila.
For the time being you can get 4X4. It's in the stickies.

The contact pics is still an issue, but since the people tab is the next tab along, I personally don't see the point in having contacts on the home page.
I don't know if the wallpaper issue still exists with the 4x4 cab on the stickied tweaks page, but I can confirm that if you use HDWall to get a background on all tabs, that definitely works.

I like to have my girlfriends contact shortcut on the homescreen, so its kinda important to me...
I've seen a post with a 5x4 arrangement where contact pics work, but it has two different cabs, but no indication which works with the HD2.
Anyone?

Fair comment about the gf on the shortcut. Didn't think of that.
The 20 shortcuts is in this post...

Awesome, thanks heaps for that.
EDIT: 20 shortcuts works, doesn't appear to affect any other homescreen UI, and contact images display properly. Good thing I tried it, turns out 16 shortcuts would have been woefully inadequate. Didn't realise quite how quickly I had accumulated apps...
before you all flame the crap out of me for asking a question that has been asked a billion times im sure, hear me out. I have installed a few cabs that claim to do this but to no avail. the background on a stock rom is as irritating as salt in the eye.

To be clear...are you talkign about the color of the clock tiles themselves, directly behind the letters? Or the background (wallpaper) on the home tab?
At first I thought you meant the border around the bottom half of the clock, where the weather shows up...but you shouldn't have that on a 6.1 ROM..
the two tone gray background of the clock itself, if it is at all possible without changing the clock numbers. I can swipe my finger "up" and then the numbers on the clock become smaller and the background goes away....thats what im after. and thanks for not railing on me, I may have alot of posts but 97% or more are questions lol but im getting better.

No problem What you're talking about is the clock tiles, and they are certainly replacable with custom ones. The trick is determining exactly what version of TF3D or Sense you have, you'll have to know that to know which custom clocks to look for and download.
Do you have an "About" entry on the "settings" tab? If so it'll tell you what version you have. If you don't see that there, you can just look it up in the registry (I'll show you where)...do you have a regedit app? (Total Commander, PHM_regedit, etc)
this is why i never delve too much into this stuff but am starting to. way too much stuff to keep up with while trying to run my own buisness, thanks for your help
I have winmo 6.1 CD OS 5.2.21052
I dont know what "sence" i have ....if any at all lol.
and all i want to do is make the clock tile transparent or just delete it if possible.

I dug around in some clock files and found this for you to try, there is no guarantee that it will work as i cant test it for you, but i looked at in with CFC gui and it looks promising!
It might be a good idea to back up the same file in your rom,
Untick manila in "home settings" then copy the file using TC or something
retick manila and it should show.
I hope it works for you

Ok yeah I have the same version as Tregrad (TF3D 2.1), and that manila file worked just fine on mine when I tested it...it makes the clock tiles 100% transparent.
However, getting that manila file into the right place on your phone takes a little doing...do you (Tregrad) know how to copy files into and out of your phone's /windows directory?
Maybe someone would be willing to cab that up for you to make it easier...but if not, we can show you how to get it on there and working.

You tested and it works ok? I can cab it up later ( i'm not on pc right now), where does it want to be? just straight into Windows folder? I would have cab'd it staight away but thought someone had better test it first!
so should i wait for the cab or what? or can i just drop the file in the windows directory? and thanks again for your help fellas.

if you can just drop in the windows folder, there's no real need for a cab just makes it more convenient is all! go ahead and try it out i'm dying to know if it works! See if you can find the matching file first and back it up though...I would
ok will give it a shot right now
no change at all hmmm copied orig file and put it in a folder on my pc and "replaced" existing file with the new one and rebooted but nothing happened.

dont even have an option to untick manilla
Ok heres the Cab, sorry for the delay!!
there must be a tick box in "Items" Under today settings, and it will be Manila or TF3d or something HTC related! its been so long since i used this ROm i can't remember
So untick whatever it is and then install the cab then retick and it should have overwritten....Good Luck
ok tf3d is ticked, I am going to try the file thing first then if that doesnt work then i will try the cab, thanks.
nope, none of it worked. unticked, ran cab, wanted to restart - let it do so, restarted then re-ticked tf3d and nothing happened?
should i delete the existing file? if it isnt there then it wont want to run it right and since i just want it gone it wouldnt hurt right?
I have to go for now be back in a few hours. thanks again for all your efforts os!

Weather4me vs weather Tab on Manilla/TF3d etc
I love the detail of Weather4me, Humidity, Pressure, wind, UV & visibility
Is there anyway of getting this level of detain in the weather Tab, either by adding to existing tab or replacing tab?
I'd also like to see % chance percipitation. I'm outside all the time. And while its nice to know whether or not rain is predicted, I'd like to know whether its a 10% chance or 90%.
I know with CHT you can change the Application that the Weather goes through. However, I'm not sure if it shows different information and simply the data goes through somewhere else or not? This might be able to help you. Or you can do what my dad does and just make Weather a quicklink on your Home screen.

Thanks, but whilst that changes where it gets updates, it doe snot change the info shown.
I think that now that I have changed app, I may be able to mess with registry settings to show more.
Just need to figure out which and what, but I have no skill at this so any pointers for modifying Tabs would be grateful
Solution!

That is the most awesome weather program I have ever encountered.
Works awesomely in SecondToday, but when I change the weather app in CHTeditor noting happens. It does not change the weather panel to weatherpool or SecondToday even though it is listed in CHTeditor as SecondToday.
I am using the New Faria ROM (HTC Messaging)
Just used MTPLoader instead of Second Today and it works
