Hey guys, lots of great packages here but the one thing I really want to change/get rid off is those crappy blocks which are used in the touch flow background.

You know the ones, the crappy ones which fade into the horizon that look like something from Tron :(

They look terrible and it seems you can only replace the home area with a background image.

Do any of the packages here allow you to change this?

guess the only way to do that is to change the theme using touch flo 3d config

Please, i want to change that ugly wallpaper too... Touch flow 3d config "themes change" don't work for that.

I agree. Since ive changed to the Official HTC WWE 1.93 rom with .5 radio (better signal now, thanks for that!) I cannot change the background at all. In SETTINGS and TODAY the background image has been selected by clicking on BROWSE yet nothing is displayed.

You CAN change the Wallpaper on the homescreen by SLIDING to the SETTINGS Tab on the TF3D.

There is an option Wallpaper. This will change the Wallpaper on the HOMESCREEN only (unfortunately) and not on the other tabs

The BACK GROUND with in the Settings and Today menu doesn't apply to the wallpaper.

All the best.

I have changed the home page wallpaper. This thread referes to the Blocks on the other pages. I want them to be the same as the home page.

I find it hard to believe no one has made an app to make the wallpaper apply to all tabs....why did HTC make it like this? Weird....

Have patience. There are people who are preparing Manilla editors.

Just because you have no clue about how to do this doesn't meant it's a good idea to insult peoples intelligence by implying its simple and they should have done it already. The reason it's not been done yet is not because theres no want, but because devs must first understand fully how Manilla operates, it's not exactly documented in a nice fancy API.

I bet we will find that some of the animations on the other tabs possibly have the blocks background as part of the animation images, and therefiore HTC cannot allow you to change it...

Hi all,

I've found a solution on how to change TF3D Background not just only with the Home tab.

Visit http://www.pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=news&id=6030.

But unfortunately it only applies to Touch Diamond/Touch Pro only.
Sorry Touch HD users.

Hi All !

This one was solved a long time ago by NISSEDILLEGAF.

Pop this Manilla file into the WINDOWS directory using total commander or similar. Replace the original file and then reboot your phone.

Presto - 3d blocks dissapear from all tabs.

Wonderfull

Kind Regards

thx
