first welcome on xda.
Secondly with some more information it was easilyer to help, but here we go.
mostly themes are package in a cab file, so you download it, copied it to your Sd where ever you will, navigate with your explorer (from your device) tho the path on your sd where you storage the cab file, press on the cab file you will install. You will see a new window open who ask the installation path. select internal memory (do always this fore themes/skins) after installation do a quick restart of device and that's it.
about the wallpaper, go to the setting tab, select background & wallpaper, navigate to the image you would, and select it. that's all.
if you will have a wallpaper fore each tab make use if CHT
in case of something isn't clear contact us again, and give some more information about what you will and problems you have.
first of all thanks alot for your help

Do you have install a other application fore background?
One thing is sure, problem is by user it's just finding out what it is
yes i installed cookies before but i removed it now and still the wallpaper nochange

I see what you mean, it's because you remove the CHT there is a parameter who isn't present now.
Tree way's to restore.
- Restore CHT
- Install bg4all or hq wall patch.
- soft reset
I recommended the first option.

where do i put my picture so that i can have them as the back ground on my today screen,
if i use the pictures out of "my picures" and use the browse setting in the today section, the picture is misty,
but if i select the default settings they are perfectly clear,
so!!!!
can i put my pictures where these are kept (spiral, and windows default etc) then they should be clear too!! "YES"?
the "backgrounds" you are talking about are not really just pictures but themes
the files are called .tsk
the reason your background are not that good quality is most likely that they are in the wrong size and have to be autoresized by the device if you resize them to the right res then i'm sure they too will be fine
thanks for that info,but i have tried that and its still not as clearas the "skin"
any other idea's can i change the picture in the skin some how??
where do i find.tsk then??
where the tsk files are located i'm not sure a good place to look is in windows\
you can make your own themes / tsk files using a theme maker for pocketpc
http://www.pdatoday.com/more/917_0_1_0_M/
the .TSK files can be anywhere on your device and the today part will pick them up.
even if they are on an SD card.
what you need is the theme generator to create them. I'm using one that i had when i had the XDA device
just will not update the XDAII so i have to save to HDD first then copy across manually.
works a treat for me.
try some of these...
urrr? lol
ok thanks!! whats HDD, and copy across manually, how do i that,
where do i get a theme generator from?
(i am using an xda11
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/extthemegen/?en
http://www.freewareppc.com/misc/themegenerator.shtml
http://www.google.dk/search?hl=da&ie=UTF-8&q=theme+generator&btnG=Google-søgning
whats HDD, and copy across manually, how do i that,
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
HDD is harddisk often called c: in ones computer
you get the file to your device by
1 copying it to pocketpc documents in your my documents dir and then sync with activesync
2 connect with activesync and press the button called explore device
i thought it was gonna be a little more technical than that lol,
now, i have d loaded from them links, but when i run them i get an error,
do ineed to put them on the xda then run from there?
God this man needs serious help! Isn't this one of the most simplest things to do? go to microsoft.com and install the theme generator from the mobile section when u have used it save the them nut DO NOT send it to device instead copy and paste it from where u saved it into your devices windows directory or my documents its fairly simple
well i must need help then mate, or is it your instructions to a novice, as
i have tried to figure out what to do with the info you have provided, and still not working,
i have download the theme generator from this site http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/extthemegen/?en
what i cant understand is where to put them exactly as i have tried to do what you lot have said and it i get error messages!!
if its not to much bother for you please list exaclty what i need to do as i have tried and it dont work!!
(whats this mean, please "save the them nut DO NOT" etc etc")

That was a mistake I dunno where the NUT came from! that SPB thing you downloaded will not install without microsfts theme generator! get it here : http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/themegenerator.mspx Now once you have installed and made your 'Theme' Using the simple instructions then at the very last part it gives you a chance to save your theme - If you select 'Send to device' checkbox it will not because I presume your running windows mobile 2003 so save the file on your Hardrive - Lets say your desktop! Now once thats done copy and paste your theme thats on your desktop and place it in your 'Mobile My documents' Directory which should also be on your desktop now next time you sync your phone your theme will be sent to your phone and then you can use it from there! God I hope that helps :-(

anyone tried this yet.
Does doing a hard reset alter the application free settings or anything else, for that matter?
Just checked and Folder 3 is showing empty when I unzip it onto my PC before transfering. Is this correct?
also, having unzipped the files I am also unable to delete the sound file. It tells me one of the files is in use?
Are we sure the Crossbow tweak works on the Monet and that none of these files is corrupted?

Thanks rickwyatt.
Just aout of interest is this Only a 'LOOKS' thing or does it add more useful features?
Perhaps I did it wrong but when I unzip the files I end up with 3 folders (Numbered 1-3) PLUS one called Sounds.
Thanks for the theme
The theme worked in my startrek. But, i don't see the alarm icon on whenever i reboot the phone though i set the alarm on. Any idea?
i have tried this on my monet, the first time i followed the instructions as listed here only to fine the phone hangs making strange noises after the sim code screen.
i have carried out a hard reset on my phone and tried again, this time using only the shelres dll from the first folder, no other dll's but all the other files,
i restarted the phone and it started fine however there was nothing in the start menu - one quick restart and all the new icons are present.
looks lovely
thanks
It also worked great on my Qtek 8500, without any problems at all!
Thank you very much!
EDIT: Well, the alarm icon does disappear when I reboot, but as I had WM2003 before,
I'm kind of used to not see the alarm icon on the homescreen! LoL!

I tried it, actually, this is working until the soft restart the plugin. After that the prophet is going VERY slow (+15s to open windows directory, instead of 3s usually).

I've had that problem also. It got very slow. I tought it was something else I might have done, so I hard Reseted my device and never used the program since(because I don't use the HTC Home plugin - I just wanted to try the program).
yeah guys it make my prophet very slow
any solution can we do it ?
Hi there,
Thanks for this great app! But anyone has problems with running HTC Audio Manager in WM5? It doesn't work on my Prophet. It gives me the known 'trusted certificate' message when I try to run it. Please help
My prophet also got VERY slow! I recognized that the home plugin customizer placed about 200-300 files in windows/ (HH_....)
i think this is the reason for slow performance!
I can't understand why some programs place their files in /windows instead of this the files coulb be saved in Windows/HH_home_plugin .... or something like that.
If someone is able to do that,pleaso DO IT!!!
I considered to delete the files in /windows but i dont wanted to delete any of the "origin" home plugin files
sorry for my horrible english
Hey,
I'm the author of the customizer and I'd like to hammer out the slowness issue. The only thing I can think of is that the files are installed to a different location on your prophet (from ROM install) than the customizer is checking for. Could someone please let me know when the files are found on the device with the default plugin? I would like to fix this for the next version which is just about done.
Thanks,

From what i've been able to find out, the slow down happens because when the program applies a skin, or just a part of it(it doesn't really matter if it's all or just a part), the files in windows folder are replaced, but as they are ROM files, the replacing of the files doesn't really overwrite them, and being so, the list of files becomes longer and longer, and that causes the PPC to slow down.
So, in my opinion, the solution starts by not having the plugin included in the rom(correct me if i'm saying nonsenses), and maybe putting it in the extrom, and making the installation go to a differente folder.

I agree, a different folder would completely resolve this issue. For instance, schen's cab installs almost everything (except HTC HDlg.exe,HTC HDlg.0409.mui, and HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml) to \HTCHome. How easy/hard would it be for the cookers to change that and is it worth changing to get better "compatiblity" with the customizer?

hi again
what I tryed to do in my V4 & 5 of prophet touch roms was to move the images to HTC folder with intflashfile.txt like this
Directory("\HTC\Home"):-File("HH_BEZEL_fill.png","\Windows\HH_BEZEL_fill.png")
but that only made a copy of the original file so I had 2 copies of the same image...
1 in HTC folder and 1 in windows folder, but what I wanted to do is move the files to HTC folder
so if anyone knows how I could do it properly I'd be verry happy,
because it would make the rom faster and would also make this customiser program even more affective.

Saving themes should not affect your device. When you save a custom theme, all the customizer does is save the name you gave it in an "ini" file in the customizer's FILES directory. Now applying a theme is a different story as that's when it's copying files to your device.
Could you or someone else test this out a little more? I'd like to release v0.8 today but if this is indeed the issue, I'd like to fix it before release.
first i am mistake about saving theme ..... i was wanted to say make backup not saving theme

The themes you find here are generally for Sense/Manila so do not appear in the themes list in Settings>Appearance (these are just the WinMo themes so ignore them). Once you've copied a theme cab to your storage card you then need to run the cab (which is actually an install file) and make sure you install it to your device, not the storage card. Once you have run the install you will need to do a soft reset to allow the changes to take effect. Once you restart the theme should now be loaded! If you find you don't like it just go to Settings>Applications>Remove Programs and you should be able to uninstall there. Soft reset and you'll be back to where you started. It is also adviseable to do a full backup before you install any new theme just in case it is not compatible with your version of WinMo or Manila, which can cause problems.
Have fun!

The information writhe by "Dunc001" are 100% useful and correct.
First of all when you have problems by installing a cab/theme; mostly the problems are: wrong installation, not following the instructions, problems from some combination whit some manila/OS versions, ...
Fore receiving a optimal solution/answer to your problem it's better to communicate your/the problem on the specific Thread of the Theme/cab/program.
Reason way!? The developer/creator have the most experience/knowledge of his stuff, ore other users on that thread who know the solution/answer to your problem will be able to fix ore gives you a answer more quickly to it.
Also maybe a other user have had the same problem like you, and you see/reed immediately the answer to it. Ore future users with the same question will find the solution.
"Don't see this as a personal attack; I only tray to explain/help you out fore a more easier use of the XDA Thread's"
sorry brothers

any help
thanks
Don't know, if you use my Win 7-Theme. If so, the wa, to install was described before. But there is also anothwr theme online, for tbis you need Wisbar Advance Desktop. Witbout this, you can't run the theme. It's really important to know, how to install a cab and to read the instructions in the thread. Most time the error is sitting a little away from the device.

i find that many have problem with changing the star menu icon
they think that their mobiles crashed if they change it but me,i just respect the rules and i succeed the star icon changed!
look to my phone before changing the icon
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hpho...63474448_110868265654108_219229_2090076_n.jpg
look after

http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hpho...00141101_110868265654108_219233_4113739_n.jpg
so what i do is
download the icons from here if your phone language is frensh
https://rs542tl2.rapidshare.com/#!download|542l3|145261199|QVGA_-_WQVGA.zip|4498|R~0
and from here if your phone language is english
http://www.4shared.com/file/63132544/e5423367/Start_Icons_Skins_0409.html
now download this application
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=114778&d=1222003738
installation
install the application on your phone memory, not in stackge card
after download the icons extract them on your computer
,you will find many folders (every folder contain 2 files,one is for the show(to look at the icon that you will install) and the other is (shellres.96.dll.040C.mui)
so enter to any folder look to the picture,if you like it ,send the (shellres.96.dll.040C.mui) file to your phone
put this file in the windows folder (there is no replacement)
now soft reset your phone (redemarer)
soft reset means turn off your phone then turn on
i advice you with the blue windows folder ,thats the folder that i work with
beleve me there is no danger
so easy
please any one ask if he face any problemes
