HOW TO: Customize TouchFLO3D / Manila Themes

[asuh]

GoodThings, dude you rock! Thanks for all your hard work.

Might I suggest you make as many screenshots with your tutorials as possible? The more you make, the easier it is to visualize or understand how to make these changes. It also allows people to know what they are changing to.

As I'm sure you can tell by the first post, I am all about screenshots whenever possible. Unfortunately, code editing isn't very screenshot friendly, since it lacks the whole copy/paste ability, that's why I've been using the code blocks. But any time I talk about graphic editing, I will definitely do screenshots if possible.

Austin, good idea... I'll try to post some screenshots today.

UPDATE: Done!

Awesome guides. Anyway to change the fonts TF3D uses? I am going through each file now. I will let you know if I find anything.

The fonts, as I understand, are hardcoded into the mode9 manila files which don't have an easy method to modify yet. People have done it for custom themes because they're willing to use hex/binary file editors to do it, but it's not something I'd recommend at this point until there's an easier way to do it. Check the XDA links at the start of the second post if you want to investigate that further for now.

Here is a screenshot of what the Call History Tab looks like...

Cool. I would love to add tabs without having to delete any. But I'm horrible at code.

It took me forever to learn how to do it on my old Moto Q.

shaun,

Ah, now that you've listed out your accounts, I think I understand why... I think the mail tab only shows the first four accounts, and since the list is alphabetical, it's probably stopping before it gets to Yahoo.

The nice thing about the Call History tab is that it's really easy to add, at least by comparison to most of the edits.

As for the IT guys, we look at EVERYONE like they're crazy! It makes sure that people only bug us with real questions, lol. Anyway, just ask one of them what your POP/IMAP/SMTP server address is (probably just mail.domain.com, but better to ask to be safe) and that's really all you need besides the username/password that you already know.

Cool. I will do that.

When you created the Call History Tab, did you remove it from the Home Tab? Which post number tells you how to do it? I'm gonna try it.

I'm simple. I scrolled down the mail tabs and Yahoo was there. (what a dummy I am)
