Um... all these mods are for TF3D, so if you arn't running it, it wont do anything. :P

*** Post #2 Updated with a new mod! ***

I was merely pointing out that I disabled Touch Flow so the files would take. Of course I'm using TF3D. They still didn't work for me. I assume it's because I replaced most of my manila files with the older GSM versions.

It's possible that the theme you are using does not have the files being replaced in this thread. The coding of the theme ultimately dictates which files are loaded and displayed.

Any way to get the original Sprint files back? The green was okay at first but I would like to customize my phone more then just factory choices.

Just delete all the custom manila files. The stock ones in the ROM will magically re-appear

If you use Resco File Manager, there is an option to "Hide Files In ROM". Then you can just delete all non-ROM files in your windows folder and return to stock.

It is silly when people say to backup ROM files. They are in Read-Only-Memory... they are always there. If you delete the file of the same name from Flash, it just goes back to using the ROM file. It is impossible to remove a file that is in ROM, you can only replaced it (until your replacement is deleted).

Oh, I gottcha now. Sorry, I thought you had it disabled. After installing my manila files, just do a soft-reset (press the pen in the hole near the USB connector)

Do you have background-on-all-tabs installed? Do you have the Call-History tab installed?

All my files do is change some of the graphics (the top/bot curtains, the call-history icons, the program backgrounds, and the no-art in Music tab). If you have the default black background, you wont be able to see the changes to the curtains or program backgrounds. If you don't have the Call-History tab, you won't be able to see the changed icons.

Does the Music tab have my CD-Jewel-Case for songs with no-art?

If you set a background pic for the home tab, can you tell that the curtains are semi-transparent?

Also, for the post #2 mod, make sure you have a working flip-clock first. If you don't have a working flip-clock, my mod wont work.

Okay now we ar getting somewhere. I don't have any background cabs installed. I'm using the one that came as default. I didn't know there was a history tab for TF3D. I was looking in the call history for a change. I also thought your music icon change was for the icon on the TF3D tab not the albumn art when there wasn't any. I guess I need a TF3D configuration 101. I figured out how to re-order the tabs so I have email after home tab. I also have updated taskbar icons. I even have the white flip clock that came with the GSM OEM HTC manila files. I thought I could drop your cabs and get some results.

Hey guys, is anybody taking requests???

I simply want my tabs to have colourful neon outlines, nothing else....is that possible? anybody wanna help out?

They already do. ...you mean you want the icons colored instead of white when not selected? That's not a bad idea. Maybe I'll work on it.

You just have to use the manila editor to save all the "hero" images (the selected ones) and then resize them smaller and save them to the unselected images.

Here's a link to the stock Sprint TF3D cab:
