Run the CAB file and soft reset of your device.

Having this skin, you can choose type and quantity of active functions. You can edit the register or use Schaps Advanced Configration Tool v 3.x to do it.
This solution don't replace the existing CommManager. You can use both. Use the Advavanced Config to choose between skins:
On/Off Button - for standard Diamond skin
Large Button - for Kaiser or DiamondStyle skins.

Buttons names will be displayed in your language.

In Dimond Style skin you can use 7 to 10 buttons (from 12).
WARNING! When you use 10 buttons, place the Sound/Vibrate button in last line for better performance.
In Kaiser skin - 10 buttons (from 12).

Thanks! I never quite liked having to compromise some options and decide which 6 to include in the original Comm Manager.

Now I can have them all!!!!

Many thanks :)

Thanks. Nice to see all the communication options all at once rather than a limit. :)

Now all we need is for one of our skinning masters to come up with a more diamond looking interface and this will be really cool.

EDIT: Just noticed there is no option to turn off 3G! :(

I renewed the graphic files (Look in the preview), but i´m not able, to make a cab out of these files. I don´t have the knowledge in this way. If someone want´s to make this job, i post here the changed graphics. But at 1st it would be good, to get a feedback.
To integrate it in TF3D, you can use the Softkey Changer. With this program you can replace one tab of the homescreen from Programs or else to Comm Manager.

New idea

Here I have tried to make skin in Diamond CommMamager style .
Having this skin , you can choose type and quantity of active functions from 7 to 10 (12 accessible). You can edit the register or use Schaps Advanced Configration Tool v 3.2 to do it. Now you don't need to change buttons pictures as in Kaiser CommManager.

BUT I haven't standard icons for buttons InternetSharing and VOIP to finish this work.:(
Send me, pls... who has...

I´ve got it to run...with some tricks. But i don´t like, that this module don´t recognize, that there are masked .png-files. So all, what should be invisible, is now white. But the functions are okay. It integrates itself into the Comm Manager in the Connection-Tab. But not in the new seperate Comm Manager tab, that´s a problem.
Also there are little graphic errors, which are not in the original graphics.

Really like the concept here. Might need some work on cleaning up the images and maybe adding a little depth. Great work though.

Check the registry keys, for Diamond standard must be:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager]
SupportedFunctions=6
DisableButtonText=3
For Kaiser:
SupportedFunctions=10
DisableButtonText=2

And soft-reset, of course...

Or use Advanced Config \CommManager: choose your 6 function and On/Off Buttons.

will this replace the existing comms manager? I'd like to have both on my device and remove the new one without problems if I decide.

You mean found the solution to delete it and install the original Comm Manager, or found the solution to make it work ? If the answer is the second one, please share it with us !!!!!

I found the solution to put the original commanager, all commanager have installed work very good and configurable with advenced-config

No, this solution don't replace the existing CommManager. You can use both. Use the Advavanced Config to choose between skins:
On/Off Button - for standard Diamond skin
Large Button - for Kaiser and DiamondStyle skins
in future I want make default skin available in Diamond too.

Diamond Style Comm Manager 10 Button

Drawings are updated - many thanks Nemos (4pda.ru), missing icons are added. But without album orientation.
You can use 7 to 10 buttons (from 12).
WARNING! When you use 10 buttons, place the Sound/Vibrate button in last line for better performance.

Looks great... just two question :

- only for russian ?

- is it possible to uninstall it and go back to default settings ? :)

But it would be nice to have more than 6 items on the diamond !

Ciao
