Let me be the first to say thank you for this great theme

Can you share the HTC start icon as well.

Cheers!

[lantisy]

Thanks, just want to ask, is it include the clock as well ?

as i have other clock file which i am happy to use at the moment .... :P

yes please, can you also share the HTC start icon, and also other colorful icon on top ??

thanks

you can PM me for the file ....

[dimisxxx]

Thank you man but can you please share the TASKBAR ICONS that you have as easy installation??? dont give the link to that just if you can post it ready here????

[orlith]

Nice one mate.

Nice activesync icon. Would be glad if you can share only those 2 dlls.
thanks

[Giannis86]

taskbar icons are incomplete..i still need to modify a couple..i will post them when they are done


The files above ONLY include the tf3D icons..so no clocks..

[Giannis86]

updated!

Landscape mode changed mostly
Portrait mode changes: People, weather & Home(changed contrast)

I 'm worried about this

If I do overwrite...this means....my original; TOuch flow 3D file will disappear? and if I want to change back to original theme....I need Hard reset?:eek:

[ResLo]

No they wont.

Read this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2791165&postcount=1

It tells you how to install and how to uninstall when there is no cab and why you wont mess up the original files.

Thank you man but can you please share the TASKBAR ICONS that you have as easy installation???

not true.
Total Commander will overwrite the original manila files without prompted. if you already have modded icons then it will ask to overwrite (hence what i said above)

so in other words, the original file WILL get replaced.
HOWEVER, you should not worry.if you delete those manila files from the windows directory, the ROM will automatically restore the original file.

[madster]

i only got 2 of the 8 icons in landscape mode, not sure why? Oso pls advise how I can get the calendar tab.

[Giannis86]

sounds weird..
try disabling tf3d first and copy the files again.
enable tf3d again...

if that doesnt work, try a soft reset.

please let me know if this worked..

[madster]

It work now as I hv installed the vodafone red theme previously. and now I resintalled bk to default. Thanks again. I can installed the call history and calendar but it doesn't appear your icons. Please advise

[Giannis86]

i am assuming that you installed the call history and calender after you installed my icons
That would lead to my files for CH and calender being replaced by the standard icons

So in other words:
if you have Call history & Calender ALREADY installed:
Just copy paste my files

or

if you want call history and my icons, install call history first and install my icons afterwards

Tell me if this worked for you

[madster]

Yup, it works again. I also add the comm tab. how to change the icon?

[Giannis86]

can you give the link to comm tab topic?
if i know which manila file is responsible for those icons i can try to make some for you

[madster]

I think it is 42d367fd_manila...but I dun know how to change the icon with ur other invention

[Giannis86]

i found the 2nd one..
1e439536_manila - Tray icon
42d367fd_manila - Hero icon

instructions: same as the above icons.
I included a backup of the files just in case

Let me know how it works and if you like the icon


EDIT: PROCEED WITH CAUTION. POSSIBLE PROBLEMS..THIS POST WILL BE UPDATED WHEN IT IS KNOWN FOR SURE

[madster]

Very nice, my friend. but i realize u have 2 files with same name, which one I should copy to the window dir?

[madster]

Got it! v nice icon. Thanks a lot! Any more icon that I can try on your works?

[madster]

Giannis, I have a problem w the new sets icon, I can't use the Menu under message, everytime I press on the Menu under messages, it will prompt manila.exe error. while other function like all message, new message, threaded sms, I hv no problem. Any advise?

[sunnycheng]

Giannis

Those are some awesome Taskbar Icons you got there, can you share them with us? Thank you!

[sbtarq89]

Giannis, I use the zip file for comm manager icon, unzip it and copy it to windows directory. I follow the step by step instruction, disable TF3D, copy the manila files to win dir, enable TF3D again. But the comm manager tab doesn't show up on TF3D. Please help. Thanks

[Giannis86]

@sbtarq89: those are ONLY the icons. you have to enable the com tab first (there is a thread on it and THEN apply my icons

@madster: this is weird..i dont get the problem. you shouldnt in any case as these are just icons. try restoring the original files and see if it works. it could be something else causing it. let me know what happens

[madster]

My friend who install the same icon sets also have the same problem...like me, we can't have the menu from messages, even now I disable the comm tab, the problem still lies.

[Giannis86]

try this for me and see how it works...
restore the original comm tab manila files (so with the original icons)..comm tab this is the only thing different (that whats on my phone)so i assume its that.

if that doesnt work tell me exactly what you have installed (from the icons above), and i will try to replicate it on my device

by the way, am i right to assume that this didnt happen without the comm tab?

[madster]

It is the comm tab issue, not ur icon sets. Thanks.

[Giannis86]

so it happens with standard icons too?

[madster]

No, once I remove the comm tab, everything works well. I believe u r using touch pro too, u have the same problem when installed the comm tab??

[Giannis86]

i dont have the comm tab installed as i said before..
However the only thing i did was replace the comm tab icons so im not sure why it caused this..

maybe the thread with the comm tab has some info on that?

[madster]

No issue, thanks a lot for your help. Would also appreciate u can share your task bar icon. It is very nice!

[Giannis86]

will do when they are done..
unfortunately iv been very busy with university the last weeks..anyway you will see it coming when its done :D

[madster]

Btw if I want to use my own calendar icon, beside not to copy the icon to win/dir, which other file I should not copy to win/dir?

Solved: I have figured it out.

[madster]

I have problem now...my program and comm tab is having the same icons. I have managed to use your icon for comm tab. But now it is using the same icon as the program. Already reload ur 2 file into windows dir, still same. Please advise.

[Giannis86]

honestly i think its better to use the standard icon for the comm tab..i dont understand why its causing problems

what you can do is this:
delete the 2 manila files for the comm tab and the other 2 for the program tab
after the rom restores the original ones things should be back to normal
then you can use my program tab manila files to get the icons back

until someone figures out how to get the comm tab icons working properly i think its best to leave it untouched :S

[madster]

what is the 2 filename for program icon?

[madster]

Hi Giannis

What is the 2 filename for the program tab to be delete?

[Sergio PC]

Thanks very much, your Landscape icons are VERY cool.:)
I appreciate thanks very much.
Greets.

[Giannis86]

@sergio : thatnks a lot :D
@madster : im not at home now, i will take a look tomorrow and let you know ;)

[madster]

No worry, I have resolved the problem. Thanks a lot for your help!

[Giannis86]

i'm at home now and i was just about to do it until i read your post :D
weird problems but glad its resolved

[smarkum]

Hi, so I got commander on my touch pro. then downloaded to cpu the files. then transferred to memory card. then opened in commander and clicked on the two pieces of paper with the green arrow (I'm assuming this is copy). I then clicked on Tree and went to windows; after clicking it I hit ok. It then did its business and I then closed it and went to turn touch flo back on (yes I turned it off before hand) and the same old appears. I did a soft reset and same deal. So then I did it all again with same results. I'm a newbie to this but I think I did it right . . . Thanks

Third times a charm. Don't know what I did differently, but whatever. Very cool. Thank you.

[millerasm]

not to sound crazy but will this work on the touch pro, i see it was for the diamond just want to make sure before i start installing.

[Giannis86]

yes it will..as you can see the topic says landscape support which is only for the Touch Pro..

I am using a touch pro myself too so no worries :D

[millerasm]

thanks... do you have the sprint tv icon thats the only one i dont have

[ebmorgan]

FYI to the OP....you've maxed out Photobucket so your pics in the original post don't display.

[Giannis86]

i know, i have already created another photobucket acount..i will try and move some pictures there when i have time

[Robertus jacobus]

Hi Giannis86,

Thanks for the icons.
They also work well on my new touch hd.

I have two questions:

I also have a "stock" tab.
Is there an icon for this tab?
It is the only one missing now.

After installing these icons on my standard htc black background
I could see some color difference with the rest off the screen.
Between the icons it is somewhat more gray (not much but I see it)
Can this be changed?

Grt,

Robertus.

[pcboyy]

is there any chance u're going to put these files into cab? ... to uninstall the theme in future, i have to delete those files but there are too many manila files in /windows.. i'm afraid if i will delete unrelated files.. :(

anyway very nice theme.. look forward for the cab.. if u're planning to provide one :) have a nice day

[Giannis86]

@Robertus jacobus:
i have the touch pro. i dont know which manila files are responsible for the stock tab :S
as about your other problem im not sure if i understand..can you post a screenshot and show me what you mean? (maybe circle an example and add a bit more explanation)


@pcboyy:
i have tried making cabsbefore but the cab utility does not want to cooperate with my Vista 64bit..
a quick way of reverting to the stock theme is to use Diamond TF3D and click on restore default under the theme tab..it takes a minute and a soft reset only

[Robertus jacobus]

Hi Giannis,

We will have to wait until the responsable HD manilla files are known.
I think more people will ask for this icon in the near future.

As for the second question:
I mean the grey area beween the icons in the slider.
I already use "no curtains" to get an invisible slider area but this area remains somewhat grey.
I would like to have it completely black. This way the icons stand out more and look more separate.

Thanks for your time,

update: Already removed the curtain by installing "no bottom curtain".
I think after installing the icons the curtain manila's were back to the original ones.

Grt,

Robertus.

Hi,

I have found ( from whiskeybro 17-12-2008 link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460349) the manila file for the stock tab:

The manila file is:

Name BIG SMALL

Stock 08a608eb 34588a9a

Now it should be possible to make an old school "stock" tab...

Thanks

Grt,

Robertus.

[Giannis86]

yes but i need those 2 files..can you post them for me?

[Robertus jacobus]

I have extracted them with total commmander but don't know how to upload them yet.

Grt,

Robertus.


yes but i need those 2 files..can you post them for me?

[Giannis86]

put them in a folder. then right click on the folder and click on send to->compressed folder.
then in the forums, click on reply (not quick reply) and then click on manage attachments..select the zip file and click on upload

hope this helps

[Robertus jacobus]

Yes, here they are, and thanks for the time.

[Giannis86]

sorry for not replying earlier..anyway i see that the 2 images in those manilla files are both 64x64..normally one should be 64x64 (tray icon) and the selected icon is 128x128

in this post i attach the icons and i also modified the files that you sent. I checked nisse's thread and accordingly used the icons..if it did not work tell me

[Robertus jacobus]

Hi Giannis,

Thanks for your answer.

They do not work yet.
The stock icon remains the old one if I only look at it but when I tap on it, it changes into your new small icon. The bigger icon remains the old one all the times.

I think the found manila's are not the correct ones ....

Grt,

Robertus.

[Giannis86]

sounds like one of them is correct

i dont have stock on mine so i cant really check it out for myself...
let me know if you find the correct files and i will try and fix them

[Robertus jacobus]

Thanks,

Does anyone else know the correct manila's for touch hd stocks tab?

Grt,

Robertus.

[sarantos]

I just put the theme and I admit it is the most beautiful theme I have ever seen !!

BRAVO

[Feger1]

Hello!

In the Manila Editor i have found the following files with the stock-icon:
174ba15d 128x128
4833934f 64x64
08a608eb 64x64
34588a9a 64x64

I hope this helps you to create a new icon-set with stock-icon.

Hey, love the work..is it possible to get this in a .cab file?

[cokoblazed]

hey, i did it with the zip file and i got it to work on portrait, but for some reason i cannot get it the landscape view to work. any ideas?

[Giannis86]

portrait and landscape need the same procedure for installing..

just a random guess here, are you using a diamond? landscape is only available for the touch pro

@cocoblazed..i will see what i can do, however i havent been able to make one yet as quickcab does not want to make the cab on my vista...

i have a verizon touch pro, and i did the installation the same way (installed the manilla files into windows), but when i go to landscape mode i get the normal touch flo screen, not the landscape version i installed. any idea what could be wrong, b/c i really like this theme

thanx in advance for ur response

[cokoblazed]

maybe this will help in figuring out my problem above. When i go to landscape mode i still have the slider like regular tfl 3d (i don't have the tabs stackable the way you have them in the landscape screenshot). Is there some setting in the phone that i need to change to have the icons go from the slider to the stackable way you have them, or should copying the manilla files to windows have automatically changed it for me?

[Giannis86]

the manila files in this thread are ONLY for theming..landscape works ONLY on the touch pro. landscape modes with a slider use different files so it is not compatible with my landscape view

i hope this made it clear

i realized that on the verizon touch pro (that i have), the landscape veiw is different from the other touch pros. when i go to landscape view on the verizon touch pro, i get another slider like the regular tfl3d interface (and not the interface that you have the theme for).

I could not get a screenshot to show you what i'm talking about, but if you go here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjZdOvtEw6s and go to the 5:10 min mark in the video you will see what i'm talking about.

I don't know if it would be too much to ask if you could make a mod of the landscape view you have so that it can work with a slider (like the one in the video). Thanks in advance for any response

[Giannis86]

i am familiar with how the verizon pro looks like.i wouldnt mind making a theme for it

however, i need someone to provide me the manila files responsible for the landscape theme on the verizon..or point me in a direction of a another custom theme for it..

once its done i would need a tester as well.

I found a custom theme here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=49291

Let me know if that helps, if it doesn't i'll keep looking to see if i can find another.

i just wanted to say thanx for considering doing this for me....

[Dreading]

Can someone tell me all of the manilla tabs that are included in this theme? I.e. Home, Calendar, Email, Texts, etc.?

Thanks

[Giannis86]

everything is shown on the first page....
standard tabs + calender +cal History are included

[Dreading]

Thanks, I've flashed so many custom ROMs that I'm not sure what is standard anymore and I'm not sure if there are some that are standard on Pro but not Diamond, etc. -- So, if I could get some clarification I'd appreciate it, especially when it's not totally clear to me based on your screen shots. Out of this list would it include everything except Profile and Communications?:

Home, People, CallHistory, Messages, Mail, Calendar, Internet, Photos, Music, Weather, Settings, Programs, Profile, Communications

[Giannis86]

exactly, everything besides profile and comm tab ;)

[Dreading]

Thanks a million, its a great theme. I'm very excited to use it. I just want to make sure I chose a custom ROM that is compatible with it.
