does any one know how to change the theme on the touch pro 2 for tmobile..?
Are you talking about changing the theme to another one already installed on the phone? If so, you go to Start>Settings>Home>Appearance. I don't have a TMob branded TP2, so I don't know what themes are pre-installed.
Or are you talking about installing a brand new (custom) theme? There are a few on this forum intended especially for the TP2, if you page through it. Make sure they are compatible with the version of Sense/Manila that you have. They typically install as a .cab file.

There are also some custom themes in the non-device specific Windows Mobile forum. But you have to be more careful about compatibility with your device, screen resolution (TP2 is WVGA), as well as version of Sense also.

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. Got my HTC Touch Diamond recently and wants to change the TouchFLO 3D theme (have different colours for the tabs, clocks and all). I have not upgraded the firmware of my phone. I have read alot of threads available here but I still cant figure out how to install new themes to my Touch Diamond. Confused of all the things about ROMs. I hope someone can guide me on the steps to change the themes on my phone.
So these are my questions:
1) What software do I need to change the themes of my Diamond? Like colours of the tabs clocks and all? (customize my TouchFLO 3D interface) Is it the Diamond TF3D Config Setup v0.6.7 or something?
2) Do I have to change or upgrade the firmware of my phone? I've heard many names of the different ROMs but I don't know what are they.
3) Any avenues or threads already set up to understand all these? If yes, please provide me the link.
I would like to express my gratitude and thanks to anyone who can help me!

First before asking the question of firmware, post your present firmware.
Next if you want to upgrade your rom, Check it in the Diamond rom development section, the latest hit is 2.03 or dutty's which r generally awesome.
To change your TF3D themes visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405749
and check all the sticky's put up.....most of them will contain all the answers for your question.

Thank you so much for your help! Much appreciated!!!
i love custom ROMs, especially NRG's, but i really like the stock look of the Tilt 2.
is there anyway to restore all of the AT&T theming?
i realize there is no AT&T themed TouchFlo3D 2.5
but everything other than that- is it possible?
main things:
Their WinMo Theme
Their TouchFlo Sliders and Icons
Hmmm AT&T theme on TP2? I dont think there is a AT&T ROM out yet.
search for the att warhawk theme. it's from the diamond 2/pure but it should work on the tp2
Here's the .tsk file for the AT&T Tabbed blue theme. This is pulled directly from the Tilt 2. You need to rename the extension to .tsk and place the file in the windows directory.
oh alright, thanks. it is coming out officially soon. and some stores already have the Tilt 2. i'm waiting still though in Terre Haute, IN.
so that the 6.5 theme i assume?
I recently got my Touch Pro 2, and love the device. However I'm still on T-Mobile 6.1 ROM, and waiting for their 6.5 update.
There are many custom tabs/screens for Manila on this forum. Is it possible to use them on this stock ROM? Or I must switch to a cooked one?
U going to have to swith to a custom rom. its best if you get your roms from thewingster.com
I guess flashing custom roms invalidates my warranty.
Thanks anyways, I might try it when I have a little more courage.
Don't listen to him, you don't need a custom ROM to customize TF3D. I use the stock ROM and I have switched wallpapers, clocks, taskbar icons, slider icons, lock screen and more. Tons of stuff you can do with stock ROM!
Here's an example:

EDIT: Just search a bit here and places like PPCGeeks etc, you can find tons of stuff. Most of the CABs from this forum (Rhodium > Rhodium themes, applications and software) work with the stock ROM. Just be sure to check which Manila / WM version they are made for. There are also many to be found in other categories here at XDA, and also you can google them.

Thanks a lot. That link looks very promising, I'll try it as soon as possible.
Ditto, I was going to say the same thing. It's not like your manila files are locked in stock ROMs. So you can manipulate them as you see fit.
You don't need to resort to flashing your ROM unless you want a complete different version of Manila.
Hey,
I was just wondering about themes for the HTC Legend. I have a stock Froyo ROM currently installed in my Legend. What is the difference between a Rom and a theme? Is a theme practically a Rom that we have to flash through recovery? If I install a theme in my Legend, does it replace my Rom I currently have installed? I was planning to get a Rom/Theme for my legend that has a nice style to it. (Transparent notification bar for example.).
PS: Can someone give me a good working nice style Rom? I wanna take a break from the current Rom I have to see what's out there. Thanks for the help. Sorry if this was a stupid question.
A theme is just that, a theme (try changing windows theme, you're still on windows!).
Cyanogen (the rom) has the theme chooser installed, which allows you to change the theme easily (no flashing, just install apk like normal apps). Make sure you pick an MDPI theme.
read more.
You mention you're on stock froyo, check out the guides on how to downgrade and install custom roms. Like this.
Thanks! Oh and I am rooted and just have a Froyo Rom installed is what I meant. Sorry for the confusion, the Rom I'm using is just an average HTC Sense Rom Froyo.
Check this thread for a comprehensive list of ThemeChoser themes. Make sure to pick mdpi ones.

This is for those who make the mistake of buying a HTC imagio and dismiss it's true potential. I believe this phone can be used as a great introduction to the mixing and matching available for all windows 6.5 mobiles. This is based on my own testings and experience so you'll have to excuse any unexpected errors that may exist. I am not responsible for any errors or malfunctions you may experience.
If you prefer the look and feel of your stock HTC imagio than these little tweaks probably wont do you any good.
I've probably missed a step or something but if you just read the corresponding threads you shouldn't have a problem.
You will need all these packages, download them and install them in the order shown below.
HardSPL your device |Link|
Install the Titanium ROM on your device |Link|
Install Sense 2.5 2019 and MAKE SURE TO READ THE WHOLE THREAD! |Link|
Install CHT 2.0 Final |Link|
This is where it gets fun, You can either choose to find another theme or just stick to the one I have found. Either way with CHT installed on your device you can adjust and change so many things.
The theme I use |Link|
The taskbar I use also |Link|
Other really good themes |Link|
JWMD Icon Changer (you'll need this to change the icon images) |Link|
In the attachments under this thread is a "Dump" of cabs, icons and other things I have used in modding my HTC imagio.
I hope this helps
