TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

I have a custom wallpaper that is awesome for my home screen, but it would not look good at all as the BG in any of my tabs.

I want to put the dark blue/center highlight Stock Sprint BG for the BG/wallpaper in all the tabs EXCEPT the home screen. This is how my system was set up previously, but I can't remember how I did it.........

Does the "wallpaper on every tab" cab file acomplish this, or does that make all the tabs match the home screen BG/wallpaper???

Right now, I have my custom wallpaper set on the home tab, & all the rest of the tabs have the black Diamond blocls BG (that I think is ugly)

isn't that just a theme change? Like either change it in the TF3D theme or the Today theme?

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

see if this helps. picture of bob on today screen, install background on all tabs cab, bob will be on on all tabs. not being a smarty, hope that helps

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Eer, that's exactly what I don't want to do (or did I miss something here??)

Try this.. load the sprint theme.. so you now have the blue circle background. reload your tab icons and clocks how you like.. but not a complete theme.... now choose your wallpaper which would hopefully only be the front page!

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

you asked what the cab does, i thought i would try to explain it, sorry if i didnt help.

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Yea, I've actually done that but then I couldn't get the clock to work that I wanted. I loaded a theme with the clock I wanted & then loaded the icons I wanted & now the ONLY thing that isn't right is those darn tab BG's.

I just know there has to be a way to swap them without loading a different theme..........

OK here we go.. try this..
Install Sprint theme...Now you have to make the flip clock work (sprint theme doesn't let flip clock work.. so install the Sprint2flip cab http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/attachment...2&d=1230078720 then install the flip clock you really want, then the Sprint fix I posted earlier and your icons.... and then pick your wallpaper you should be good

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Basically do what eenie said, and you should have exactly what you asked for.

What you don't want to do now, is install the "wallpaper on every tab" cab

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Yea, I got it working.

Thanks guys.

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

I'm curious about one thing. If you install the "wallpaper on every tab cab" & then later decide you don't like it, does uninstalling it return the system to the stock setup?? (IE: does it cleanly uninstall??)

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Yay! =D> now we want screen shots!~

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

I don't want to try it and see!

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

LOL, yea I can understand that.......

What I ended up doing for now wasn't real exciting (I change my mind a lot, so this may only last a few days) ;-)

I was playing with the VGA version of HTC Home (I still love that old plug-in) in an all black theme & decided to set up TF3D the same way for a while.

I then installed the Telus black clock TF3D theme with landscape support, then replaced the black icons & slider with the Sprint neon icons & slider. I then loaded the cab for the calendar & comm manager tabs.

I then made a new wallpaper in Photoshop that would look like the Sprint WP except in black:

I decided that would actually look good for all the tabs so I loaded the "wallpaper on all tabs" cab & called it a day.....

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Here is a question. I have installed both the diamond wallpaper changer and the wallpaper on every tab cabs to my touch pro. Currently i am running Dream's rom. However, I cannot seem to get everything just right. I installed the glassclock_v1, mun background4allpages v .02 , NoCurtains, and the sprint2flip clock cabs. Still it does not come out right. It is close but not there yet. There is another file that came with the wallpaper on every tab folder, 1e29e8e7_manila. Do I need to use this manila file in order to make everything clean looking? Any help using both these, wallpaper on every tab and wallpaper changer, would be amazing. If you could direct me as to what to do with wallpaper on every tab, that would be equally awesome. Thanks guys.

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

I know exactly what you mean about trying to get TF3D to behave exactly the way you want it to, that can be a first class b!tch......

As far as the WP on every tab file, that's pretty simple: You just install the cab file & then whatever wallpaper you use for the home screen will also be the WP for all the tabs automatically.

I have a problem where I can't seem to get rid of a couple tabs that I don't want. I have the latest version of TF config but I uncheck the boxes for the settings & call history tabs (I don't want either tab) & after saving the config & restarting both tabs are still there totally unchanged.........

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Well! There you go back to one... It looks great actually. I edited my P_BG.png in the windows folder to black also.. so my comm manager window has the sprint background in black.. I first tried editing the png to match my much loved purple on black background I use but it had rendering problems when I'd click to turn on/off items and not redraw leaving a jarble mess of graphics..

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

@thestick00 the 1e29... file is the slider. You need that to get your slider centered. What isn't looking right for you? You need to do the sprint2flip right after the wallpaper for all then the clock you want then the sprint fix and you should be good.

@John, I had that happen a time or two.. try this. disable TF3D in your today settings, soft reset, now use the config program to remove those two tabs, soft reset then re-enable TF3D in your today settings...

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

I did that, (about 25 times in a row) & it didn't work. I think the trouble started when I installed the cab that adds the calendar & comm manager tabs. After that, it wouldn't allow me to disable those two tabs.

It's not the end of the world (I can live with them), but I rarely use the settings tab & NEVER look at the call history tab so if i could remove them I definitely would......

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Ah, yeah thats probably what did me in too... i uninstalled that cab though, I wasn't thrilled with it.

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Yea, I'm sure that's the problem but I REALLY LIKE having that calendar tab right next to the home screen for quick glances. I use the comm manager tab also as I turn on/off BT constantly....

I have Pocket Informant mapped to the home screen calendar link, but for just a quick glance the calendar tab works great for me.

~John

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

True that... I did like having the calendar at hand but I got used to it.. I have my comm manager page linked to my left softkey for quick bt toggle and secondtoday running spbdiary on my right softkey. so far that set up has been solid for me. I just wish I could change my taskbar icons without it messing up my icons in my settings window (wm window not tflow window) I have 2 startbuttons that won't mess it up and my name in place of start that doesnt mess it up but any other start button I've tried so far (including ones by the same maker) and any of the taskbar set ups .. they all work.. but i lose about half the icons in the settings windows afterwards and the only way to get them back is to restore from backup.. strange but true.. LOL

Re: TF3D & tab wallpaper question??
 

Well, I don't know why I didn't just do this in the 1st place -but I got rid of those darn extra tabs.

I opened the 26948339_manilla file & deleted the code for the tabs I didn't want & then renumbered the remaining ones in the order I wanted. Soft reset & everything works perfectly.
