[THE]*UPDATE*[01-10-09] Black Magic by Zal (TF3D & S2U2 & 15-Tabs)

Ok this is my very first attempt at working with manila/themes! So like please don't shout at me if I get anything wrong (also it's my first ever post ) All advice/suggestions are welcome!
While this might look like the Sprint Theme from NisseDILLIGAF, it is not. It is, however, inspired by the Sprint theme. The only thing I did actually use is some of the neon icons but I created some new ones. Including a shiney red one for the stock tab. Also Calendar and Sound Settings icons for 15-Tabs version.
Everything else I made from scratch in Photoshop. I created a new tab-sliderbar similar to the Sprint one because the original did not work well on the HD. (as can be seen here)
My version:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(I'm particularly happy with the little funky light sparkles)
I found a way to use full-sized high quality images in the tf3d Home tab and also have a semi-transparent slider bar in all tabs. Which means you can see the HQ background through the slider in all tabs! (make sure you have default wallpaper set in tf3d settings.. i.e. no wallpaper)
I might do some more work on the clock because i'm not 100% happy with it yet. There are lots of other little mods you'll have to see for yourself
Got the battery fire effect from Godzon's Battery and modded it to work properly on Touch HD.
Oh and the flowery brush used for the wallpaper I got from here.
I made it into a cab for easy install/uninstall. (remember to soft-reset after installation)
*** NEW cab that includes 15 tabs and the 15 tab manila hack ***

*** Reserved ***

Cool theme, will be trying this out.

Yeah... excellent work, dude.

Amaizing work ! Looks great ! Going to use this..
I REALLY like that you have made it into a cab file.. every theme should be like this.. Perfect !!!

great work man, one of the best themes here.
Some suggestions for future updates :
1. Make a 15 tabs version. with complet icons set.
2. Add a new font to the mix.
3. Skin for throttlelock.
4. Custom wallpaper for weather tab.

Thanks for all the positive comments This is just the first of many more themes to come!

Some really good suggestions here. I'll definitely make a 15 tab version and I'll have to play around with fonts as I haven't tried that yet on the HD. I've created a few fonts in the past so hopefully I can come up with something original.
I Haven't actually tried out the throttlelock program yet as S2U2 works so well. But I'll give it a go today and hopefully make a skin for it!
Currently it's not possible to have a different wallpaper for individual tabs. However, I'm gonna work a bit on the graphics used on the weather tab.

Zal, Nice Theme!
Just wondering how you managed to create your custom icons in the phone?
Im trying to download a few png files that i want and cant find any info on how to just change these?

Hi gbds, the process is outlined here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Custom
Best to read the entire page, but basically you have to copy all the files ending in _manila from your phones windows folder (using explore in active sync) and then use Manila Editor to insert new png images into the manila files and copy them back to the phone Hope this helps.

I made a 15 tab version! I've updated the cab file. So just uninstall the old one and download/reinstall the new one and it should give you nice icons for all 15 tabs
Let me know if it looks ok to you, I tested it and it seems to work well.

Great job,thank you!!

do i need to uninstall my previous S2U2 before i install this?

Nope, you need to have S2U2 installed before you install this theme. Currently the cab just replaces the wallpaper in S2U2. (The clock shown in the S2U2 screenshots is just the standard small one found in the clock-pack which you can download on the S2U2 website.)
Oh and uninstalling the theme puts back the original S2U2 wallpaper

Do I have to install the 15 tab from the other thread 1st?
Or your cab files already include the 15 tab and the respective icons?

15 tab cab first. I only included the icons for 15 tabs and not the 15-tab-hack, in case people don't want to use 15 tabs.
you have just made me think though. Maybe I should have 2 cabs available for download. One with just the normal tabs and one that has the 15 icons and the hack included in it hmmmm.

Cool theme !
At first, I really wasn't convinced with the flowers brush next to the neon icons. Reason is you can't change the background to fit both neon & flowers styles
But then I found it quite unique.. I loved it
Keep up the good work

Very very nice!
I like the original Black&White theme but wanted a touch of color in it without replacing the whole thing. well, using neon colors for the current selected tab is just perfect!
The colored flowery background is subtle and very nice too, If we could have more different choice of pattern for that background it would be even better.
I might do some more work on the clock because i'm not 100% happy with it yet.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I agree on that point, the problem is that because of the transparency the flipping animation when the time change doesn't look so good, and we can't see "PM" or "AM". How does it look with the original clock?
I'm using the 15 tabs version but maybe you can provide a separate 11 tabs version.
Also it'd be nice to separate the customization for s2u2 from the TF3D cab.
Same if you do the Throttle Lock.
Is it technically possible to slightly animate things like the light sparkles, or the glowing of the neon?
Thanks again for your work, it truly awesome!!

I made a 15 tab version!

great news man, now you're cooking.
installed it, everything works, except for the s2u2 skin. i'm using the latest 1.4 vs and i'm still having the default skin. any suggestions ?

Uninstalling it doesn't work though?!
Solution: here.

[Theme]The Office (RC33) *BETA release*

Hey guys,
Here are some screenshots of the latest theme I have been working on. Feedback and suggestions/ideas are greatly appreciated.
***UPDATE 4/9/09***
Made a lot of fixes based on feedback received. Clock now matches the other icons/notifications, I personally like it a lot better! Application tray handle is now a thumbtack rather than the stapler in jello (stapler in jello is now delete handle). Added matching notification icons for most common stock apps (gmail, im, messaging, market, music, etc.) Cleaned up a weird looking button. Download link below!
***UPDATE 3/27/09***
Icon pack is available below. Included are all the application icons I made, as well as a blank icon background that you can paste your own icons into so they all match. Here is my process for doing that, though I'm not in any was saying that this is the only, or even the best, way to do it:
-Open both the icon you want and the "empty_sketchy" from the icon pack below in your favorite image editing program, GIMP or Photoshop, or whatever.
-You may need to resize the empty sketchy image, it works best if it is about twice as big as your icon you want to paste into it. There are two different sizes available in the zip file below, or it is a simple process to resize it to whatever size you need.
-Select and copy the icon you are working with, and then paste it into the empty_sketchy image. Center it, do any editing you need to do, etc. Then resize the entire thing to 48x48 and save it as a new file.
I'm still making a few changes and updates to the theme, and should release another update sometime this weekend.
***UPDATE 3/25/09***
Beta version now available, see link below. I still haven't quite finished everything I want to do with this theme, but I welcome ideas/suggestions/comments from anyone who wants to test it.
This theme is based on the US version of the TV show "The Office". It utilizes both things from the show, and typical office supplies.
Done:
custom boot screen
some notification icons
unlock screen
button backgrounds
clock
data network icons
phone signal, wifi, and battery icons
notification tray
all custom wallpapers
custom emoticons (from punkymoods.com)
To do:
remaining notification icons
delete tray handle
suggestions, etc

Here is the theme as it is so far. I have tested this on both the lite and regular versions of JF 1.42 RC33, and it worked fine for me. Let me know if you have any problems, and I will try to help. Also, suggestions/comments/ideas are encouraged!

YEAH!!! I just started watching this about 2 months ago and now I am on season 4! This show kicks so much @$$! I can't wait to see this theme in action!

beta release now available, should work with both regular and lite RC33. download link in the first post!

I like the theme for the most part, I dont know what else you would put there but i dont really like the stapler in the jello as the apps tab thing. I really love the icons, can you post those for us to download to use with other themes as well?

wow that would be awesome, i downloaded this wallpaper and resized it for the G1 and your icon set will look awesome on it
not sure about a new app tab I will be thinking about it and let you know if i think of something

I love it i am downloading now the only thing i would change just from looking at the screens would be the clock i just doesnt seem to fit in

See the first post for a link to a zip file with all the icons from this theme and instructions on how to make matching icons for other applications.
@JediMasterASD: That corkboard wallpaper is awesome. Maybe I should include that as one of the wallpaper gallery choices in the theme.

I don't think I love the clock either. I'm thinking maybe just a square clock like the kind in every office and schoolroom in the world would be better...what do you think?

Thanks again for the icons, i have already made a few more and am loving it! this is my current homescreen
I would actually like to get a copy of your theme without a graphic at all for the apps tab if possible, obviously you dont have to go changing it just for me though but my homescreen would be perfect then. Also a clock that more resembled something you would see in an office would be good too.

also something you could do is for the app tab and the notification is use weapons, becuase we all know how much dwight loves to hide weapons around the office!!!

bump for the update - see first post for changes and for new download link!!!

[THEME-dev] Analog+digital clock for manila v2

Analog+digital & analog only clock for latest manila build
​
this is a totally new rewrite of my previous work, based on latest build, more clean because no need to embed sprint component this time (thanks to T-mobile ) old thread here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=479929
developed and tested with itje's latest build, currently T-mobile one from 6.1 2.604 kitchen. Feel free to try on other roms, it should work, but keep in mind that results may be different
files provided: (as uninstallable cab or zip format)
1st screen
guap analog+digital clock.cab (bgdefault.zip): analog+digital clock.
note: with this you CAN'T change background in settings, you have to customize manila default one
guap analog+digital clock customizable bg.cab (bgwhite.zip): analog+digital clock with customizable background.
note: with this you MUST choose a bg from settings because default bg turns white on home. manila default bg still remains on others tab
2nd screen
guap analog clock.cab (anabgdefault.zip): analog clock only.
note: with this you CAN'T change background in settings, you have to customize manila default one
transparent clock bg.cab (4e670504_manila_transparent clock bg.zip - see post #4 for attachment): transparent background for digital clock
transparent top curtain.cab (18c460d8_manila_transparent_top_curtain.zip - see post #4 for attachment): transparent top curtain
the bg bug will persist until I can decompile correctly analog embedded script with luadec, no way for now
Suggest to disable manila before you install and re-enable after installation, try to soft-reset if somethin goes wrong on first try
as usual, imagine the standard disclaimer

Any screenshot?

I guess the other thread's screenshots would apply for this theme,
but I'd suggest guap to better add them here too

transparent clock bg.cab (4e670504_manila_transparent clock bg.zip): transparent background for digital clock
transparent top curtain.cab (18c460d8_manila_transparent_top_curtain.zip): transparent top curtain

hey guap, i installd the digital + analog with customizable bg, on itje's 4.5 ROM, andd selected a background from settings, but other than the home tab, all other tabs are appearing with white only bg.
will try a soft reset

as stated, this is for itje's 5.x or other roms with t-mobile manila... it's strange that even work on 4.5... clock is totally different
sorry, I can't check on old manila... maybe you have more luck with default bg one
anyway, a soft reset suggestion in #1post shouldbe a good idea

phew....*nervous smile*
reinstalled ratcom's Plain HD ui for custom bg on all tabs, that fixed it...now looking for the start menu not appearing fix (after installing plain hd)

you're sayng that ratcom's fix make bg function in all tab including home? or you uninstalled my clock? (in this case even manila restarting fix all )

guap said:

Well Ratcom's package enables custom background in all tabs (I think it was released with the new Itje release but works in Itje 4.5 ), but i lost your analog clock. I guess I'll wait till I'm ready to flash yet another newer ROM
uninstalling your analog package (without Ratcom's) didn't bring back the background in other tabs on its own

uhm sounds really weird... did you soft reset? did you uninstalled with manila disabled?

ok, below is the sequence of steps i performed:
1. installed the analog+digital with custom backgroun
2. Got white background on all tabs
3. Selected a background image from settings -> home tab showed the selected bg, all other tabs were white
4. uninstalled the cab for 'guap analog+digital with custom bg'
5. All tabs other than 'home tab' still white
6. Soft reset -> no doughnut
7. installed ratcom's custom bg for all tabs... ->fixed the issue, resulted in missing start menu
8. installed Profagg's fix for start menu not appearing in manila
and now I'm back to where I started
(custom bg on all tabs, minus the analog clock)

nabeelmoeen said:
2. Got white background on all tabs
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this doesn't happens to me... I bet it's related to your different manila build
Anyway, the customizable home bg hack is a sort of proof. At this time is relaly dirty and I'm not suprised of strange behaviour, the "safe" version is the one with default bg on all tabs.

i get the all white bg on all tabs also, and im using touch 5.05

did you installed while manila disable and soft reset after installation before reactivating manila?

Hi guap. I edited your above home.mode9 to my taste a bit Hope you wont mind. The BG on all tabs is solved in the attached file. There's an extra object called "HomeBackground2D", I simply deleted that group and it started working. Only thing is now, I wish to remove the call history button and add the calender button instead. Can you help a bit in that? Moreover I want that calendar button to be linked to the calendar page in TP2 manila (btw, the below screen is from my Diamond )

}
The only issue is below. This is what happens after swiping the tab up The button & flip clock remains & the analog disappears After swiping down, everything returns to normal

Hey guap..first of all great clocks...
Anyways..ameet deleted the group which is one way to do it
I did it another way in which i set the background transparent in ur clock.in the home.mode9 file..with that my panorama works as well and all other backgrounds work as well..,
FOr ameet and guap:
I had to ask you a question which i feel you may answer as you do lots of clock stuff and lua..
Do you know eactly what lua is needed to activate a object on a upward scroll?I mean when we scroll upwards the clock moves up.Or in other tabs the list movs up.Do you know what script is needed...like (l_1_0) set yaxis or anyhyting like that..i just cant seem to find it...
Chers
Rotastrain

sorry for the delay but I'm on titanium now and lost interest in manila...
the problem is simply one: we can't decompile correctly lua script for now.
Some components are required from others to work, in this case ameet removed a group that has to be present to get the swipe feature work because it's required by the main lua. You can try to simply "hide" it (adding a "visible = false" statement somewhere) instead of removing but that's the reason why there are some apparently useless section in home.mode9
about linking to different page: same problem, you can't correctly recompile edited script, so it won't work even if you correctly point to your desired page
@rotastrain: I think it's 2a0ac464, the main clock script... but there are pieces everywhere

Yeah i've been striving for that for a bit now !!
definitely a slide to unlock....maybe similar to S2U2 but fully customizable...it must be lite !! ....meaning just a lock utility with no useless BS .....and it'd be great if it was smooth and fast....thing that seems to lack on any unlock utility on the x1 so far.....
Rota I have great hopes now that i know you are working on this...everything you touch seems to turn into gold man !!

u think i should add a clock ?

why do we need another S2U program? I don't get it... doesn't S2U2 work on Touch Flo 3D? I would understand it conflicting with WM6.5 but not on Touch Flo 3d...

i no s2u2 works but a nice simple slide to unlock on the home tab with just one thing to press may be nice!.
Im not gona make it till the poll says people with like it..Caus it takes time to make things n after workin hard on it its just sad if people dont want it!!
SO im asking bfore hand

you could make a circle small, starting at (clockwise 6'clock) and you have to spin around the blue big circle being in the middle of the screen to unlock.
in the mid circle there is the % value that you need to unlock.
one can alter the colors for the circles (small and large one).
maybe if you have a missed call it can flash or something.
i gonna add a graphic so that you know, what i am talking about

yeah a plugin for tf3d woulb be cool, i dont use S2U cuz somehow i got bugs with it ..

good idea.!

and if you use the slide on the tf3d?
you can replace the icon of the home tab with a locker, an show the home tab when the device is locked (so you have all the infomation you need without create a new interface, and all the people can use his own theme)
for unlock the device just take the slide to the last tab and realise them
hope i explain well....

YES difnately a clock but nth more i guess,,,,and yeah s2u2 is a nice concept....but lets face it it, it is damn slow on xperia and its loaded with things that I (and many others) don't need...
a nice analog or digital clock ( 1 should choose) customizable to the max...
and maybe only like an onscreen notification of missed calls and text messages....etc
thnx rota !!

Nice idea....
The idea of a customised slider sounds great, sitting at the bottom of the screen covering touchflo 3d slider bar & as already said, nice & simple with notification icons for email, calls & sms etc. Hope it takes off Rota.......Good luck mate!

+1 here, sounds perfect.

want it like that?
or even without the HTC clock.

I already said it a few times and put it on the concept I've given you, but I can't stress it enough - Keep it simple! That goes for the gesture as well. An unlock app should be so easy that a simple, swift gesture can unlock it. If you have to go round a circle, it'll take more time, hence be annoying. You should be thinking about single swipes.

Nice,,
I have a small prototype in my brain as well..
To hack into an existing slider is not possible as we cant decompile lua so well.
TO MAKE MY OWN SLIDER..well thats a piece of cake
I PROMISE THAT IT WILL BE FAST AND EFFICIENT AND SIMPLE.You all no my earlier work..i don't tolerate inefficiency
All ideas are good.Let my brain churn..i will come out with the final result!
Cheers
Rotastrain

Yeah, making several versions is best, have people compile their own set of mods from your awesome work. Modular mods ftw!

2. Install the Touch X startmenu transparent BG, this will make the startmenu fully transparent (looks realy good with this theme)
3. Install the Theme cab
4. If you like to use the HQ Wallpaper install the HQ cab
5. Set the Dark Woman Pic as Wallpaper for both Home and lockscreen
(6. May need to softreset)
Enjoy
Release info
Ok the Theme is optimized to use with the small clocks and only 1 Calendar Thingy.
You can set the big clock and/or 2 Calendar entries, but the pics will be a little bit of
Have fun and tell me what you think.

If you need them here are the Notifications PNG's and manila files but it should be included in the cab
@skilty don't know why it doesn't work but you know you have to use max manila ultimate

Green Eye Woman Background

very well done hempe
like it alot, keep it up mate

Very Very nice, i wonder if we could see more colours like green for example ?

Does it work with stock roms?

Nice theme!
just tried it on my VGA diamond..everything works fine except the clock and the notification icons..
could you post the images and manila files and i'll try and find the right files to change.. i'm running manila 2.519202525.0
keep up the good work

@skilty don't know why it doesn't work, the files are in the second post
@WingZer0n I guess it should, but I haven't tried (but for all to work you have to have installed max manila)

Yeh really like this, very nice, installed it onto Miri Ver14 but I'm missing the clock mods and don't have 5 program shortcuts :s
Do I need Max Installed to run these settings?

what do you mean by "more color" this is supposed to be a black and white theme.
if you have an idea for a colorfull theme show me a wallpaper i could use.

you shouldn't do anything with the png's exept create manila files off theme
you have to copy the manila files of the notification icons into the windows folder. (you can't use the normal explorer for that, use Totalcomander)
if it still doesn't work, try my other notification theme link in my signature

hanx for ur reply
Meant changing BLUE to GREEN ( clock, tab icons, noti icons..etc )

Great theme, but having two problems. The top bar hasn't changed (not transparent) and the bottom windows bar (Phone/Menu bar) hasn't changed either. Anyone else seeing problem with those or have any ideas why it's not working for me?
Using L26HDLEOV3.
Thanks

Looks great hempe. I'm using your black flip; you missed a file out for it in the clocks zip so here's a zip with all the flip bits.

1. Have you softreset after installing the theme cab?
if you didn't do so else or if the problem remains
2. check with total comander what's the value of:
Code:
\\\registry\HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\SoftKeyBar\SoftKeyBarThemeImage
shoud be \Window\HDWall_softkeybar.png
and
Code:
\\\registry\HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\TaskBar\SoftKeyBarThemeImage
shoud be \Window\HDWall_taskbar.png
if the registry entry are those, check if the HDWall_... are the right pngs
@millski
thanks havn't noticed

Checked the registry values and they were the default ROM values. I checked my windows folder I do not have HDWall_taskbar.png nor HDWall_softkeybar.png. Which cab is suppose to install those? Any way you could provide me with the two .png files and I'll just manually set them? Oddly enough, lockscreen and startmenu look like they should (except the background is not HQ like the background in manila...not sure if that's normal).
Much thanks!

ok i put a zip with the cab that should install the softkeybar and taskbar in the secound post.
You have to softreset after installation.
The png's are also included in the zip

BEST THEME for sense 2.5 as of NOW!!! Thanks. To make it compatible with MaxUltimate. Great great effort!
