{CAB & HOW TO} Remove Top Curtain & Carrier Network Text By Editing Mode9

[bignadad]

I originally posted a cab here to do this, but the file that i am replacing has SO many things tied to it. its called the Home.mode9

So i am leaving the cab up, but should only be installed if you have Juicy R2 ROM and Max Manila. Nothing More or Less, or you might get an error.

GO TO 2ND POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON EDITING THE MODE 9 FILE YOURSELF TO MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO ERRORS.
Keep in Mind: by learning the How To in Post 2 you will be able to change ANYTHING in the manila. its very simple to chage and edit images. mode9 and lua are 2 other types of manila and they can be a little tricky BUY powerful

Get Manila Files off Your Phone
a. connect your tp2 via activesync, browse contents of device and navigate to the root folder then to windows folder. BE PATIENT it will take a minute or two because of all the system files. once it opens, set your view to details, and sort by "Type". scroll down until you see the type "File". you will then see the file names that look like this *******_manila (pictured below)



b. click the first manila file you see. use your scroll to scroll down to the last manila file you see. press and hold the shift key and click that last file with you mouse. this should select all manila files on your device. should be around 1200.

c. now copy those selected files (DO NOT CUT) and place them in the folder on the desktop. in the tp2 files folder.

Get Mode9 Editor Ready to Edit

A. Get Current Manila Files off Phone

Not sure exactly.....is not on the home screen mode9 file
its somewhere else...

BUT on a manila edit for an Image, like bottom curtain, its usually easier to RIP the PNG with CFC GUI editor, and just change the picture file yourself. its easier to do that than editing mode9

here is my How To for Manila Image Editing. i made this with the stock manila 2.1, so some references might be different
Edit your TF3D Manila Images to Have Exactly the Design You Want


there is a manila editor update you can get here and use the same How TO
CFC GUI .60.35 - THE Manila/TF3D Image Editor

the cab didn't work for me running juicy r2 and max manilla but the mode9 editing did the trick....
now I just have to figure out how to get hdwalls playing nice with everything else...
