Custom HTC Home Clocks, Icons, Weather [New Files 11/21/07]

OK, so I've decided to simplify this mess and make it easier on everyone (myself mostly). I have put all my clocks, icon sets, and weather sets into their own ZIP files. Just keep what you want and toss the ones you don't in the round file. As I add new sets, I will just update the ZIP archives. I have added a couple new clocks, some nice icon sets, and several new weather sets. As always, you can open the folder with the set or clock you want and copy it straight into your HTC Home folder (disable it in your Today settings first) or copy the folders into the appropriate subfolder in FILES if you have Emu's HTC Home Customizer (which I endorse fully!) and have everything at your beck and call. Here's an animated GIF with previews of the stuff:

Download Here --> Clocks | Icons Sets | Weather Sets
You can get Emu's HTC Home Customizer here.
NOTES: The Flat Weather Set comes in black and white (as do a few of the clocks). The NYT Weather set looks shabby in the GIF, but I have since tweaked it. Oh, and I updated a few of my icons sets. Just minor stuff. As always, if you have any problems or suggestions, let me know.
PROPS: Buuf and GANT artwork by Paul Davey. Shiny weather art by Jyri K. If I missed you and you should be here, PM me and let me know.

love the weather
looks great ,can' t wait to try .

Very nice job!
I like It!

I think it looks great. I am definitely interested in trying it out.

Absolutly Stonking. Top Marks
Wouldnt mind giving thos a try.
My first post to the forum. Would like to pass on my thanks to all for a wonderful source of info regarding the Hermes. Have found the forum to be a superb help with getting to grips with the PPC. Looking forward to trying the Vario3.

Those look great - I wouldn't mind testing them out.

I like these cool designs especially the weather! Good Job!

Thanks Haighter
Going to give the bits ago on my Hermes
Thanks ever so much

Just downloaded some icon and weather files. I'll get them transferred to the phone and see how it goes. Looks great so far.

where can i find this icons.... for htc 6 tabs customizes (clock,weather,contacts...)

Hmmm.... No idea, though I know I've seen some that are very similar. I'll keep an eye out for them.
P.S. If you find the artwork, let me know and I'll convert it.

what kinf of artwork do u need to convert... and make work on our mobile...

Hello
Cool Icons you created. Is it possible to upload everything in one rar or zip file? Is it possible to add these icons to the Emu home customizer?
regards, Tommy

Yes, you can add my folders to Emu's Customizer and have them available as options. Just put my folder(s) in the appropriate sub-folder in Emu's program (clocks in clocks, weather in weather, etc.).
I actually have thought of putting them all in one ZIP or RAR file. I keep adding sets, though (I've finished a new weather set just now), so I keep putting it off. I'd love to make a CAB eventually that will just jam everything neatly into the correct Emu sub-folders.
I'll work on the ZIP or RAR file... I should have done it already.

HTC theme for S2U2

firstable thanx to A_C for this great peace of a program.
I just finished the final graphics of s2u2 for Qvga, thought to share it with you guys, just unzip the htc s2u2 folder and drag all the files to gfx folder, allow to overwrite the original files, delete topbar and vtopbar, go to programs/s2u2/iLock2 to reset the s2u2.
sorry if the screenshots are not that good, that because the program I use suck enjoy!

Looks nice! I'm going to try it.
When you place them in the GFX-folder you have to delete topbar, and vtopbar, isn't it?

yes you dont need topbar and vga topbar with this theme

Just FYI. When you place these files, in your original folder you need to delete topbar, and vtopbar files.
When you want to rename your GFX folder and place these files in a new folder, you should copy slideanis and system graphic files.

I've got a O2 MiniS with S2U2 installed. I really want to apply your theme. However, I followed the instruction and the S2U2 failed to load. Could you plz help me work it out?

Im not sure what problem you have, but I assume your running an older version of s2u2, you need to install the latest version which allows you to change the graphics. s2u2 back to clock or back to caller ID will do.

Minor problem, I have 24h clock with seconds and it runs off the screen, any way to make the clock smaller??

I didnt thought about it, I will test it a couple of small numbers and see if it works, if it does then I will complete them and post it.

Great theme. thanks for all your hard work on it.

perfect!! PERFECT!! It exactly suits my touch...
tnx PoorlyDuck!!
Suggestion:
How about a glowy effect like the HTC Home Clock to the clock...

Thank you!!!

Perfect, thank you, very nice.

Ouahhh very nice thanks for this great design

thank you guys for all you comments Im trying to make the clock smaller in order to fit the seconds on the screen.

I did, but the problem is that the clock background is hard coded and when you apply the glue effect it shows the faded Grey instead of a nice bright white glue.
hopefully A_C in the next version can remove the hard coded backgrounds and then we will be able to play with clock however we want.

thx a lot for this S2U2-Theme.
I love it

Thanks for you reply! I am using S2U2 0.71. I will give it a retry

[THE] A bit more green

Hi, I changed some graphics, when they are pressed, they are green instead of black. I think it suits the overall diamond look more. Check out the screenshots for more info.
Also, I changed all in my opinion unnecessary animated gifs (used in mms), bmps, some keyboard layouts to 1x1 pix images to save some space...altogether about 2,5mb. English and german layout is left intact. Please check the zip file for yourself, before replacing all pictures.
Only extract the zip file into your windows directory, and overwrite the files you want to. Its possible, that they will be protected...just soft reset the device, and copy them over right after the phone starts. I suggest you use activesync for that.
Cheers!
PS: At your own risk!
Edit: I attached a cab file thanks to Buusgug. It does not backup the original files though.

Forward the Notion!

veery nice. thanks for that

Hi guys, thanks for the comments, but all the colors were left as in the original files. I didnt want to make the files bigger.
Or did you mean something else?
cheers

i dont know how the changing the color would work, im guessing its some sort of color code. so if all you have to do is change a value, i cant see how it would make the files bigger. but i could be wrong? im sure someone else here knows more.

Aaaah...allright...I didnt understand what you have meant in first place!
You would like to see some peppy colors, right?

can you make it as a cab and in ducht its very nice thx if you can will be great

correct yes!

Great ... gotta give it a try but will need to backup all those that needs to be replaced. How about .cab, which can be uninstalled and all is returned back to original colors
tnx.

Inever created a cab... so will look into this, but if anyone likes to create a cab...just pm me, I will send you all the files!

Cab
i Created this CAB file, it installs the files and does a soft reset..
But it doesnt take a backup of the original files i believe
So be AWARE...

thats pretty cool, maybe red? i'd like that

Can you combine the greener one with this one?

There are many files which contain no images, and replace the files on Phone that do actually have something in those files .... what are the purposes of such files in the zip file?

Yes, there are already some themes, which look like that. The vodafone one is quiet red, but there is definitely a theme that I saw which only changed the green to red. Try looking.
BUUSGUG: thanks for the cab - yeah, I had problems with creating a backup for the original images aswell...thats why I didnt make a cab

perfect

where's this clock from? it's very nice, i'd have a go at a diamond version

i gave it a shot given the time i had available..
its not perfect but its not as easy to work with a jpeg as compared to png icons
anyway in the screenshot below i dont have a background for the clock, so thats why only the numbers can be seen
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Download the zip file. There are 2 folders. "Numbers" contains ONLY the numbers in the screenshot. "Transparant Clock Background" has the files required to make it look just like in the screenshot
1. Deactivate TF3D
2. Open total commander (or anything that can modify system files)
3. Copy the manila files to the Windows directory on your phone.
4. Reactivate TF3D
I cant make cabs at the moment so in case you cant do this maybe someone can pack it...

Giannis86,
Which theme is this? Looks very cute.... Also do you have some other engine wall papers?

Take a look at this, it might be close enough to what you want:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2773288&highlight=digital#post2773288
Or type digital clock on search, you will get plenty of colors on digital clocks, i have seen a red digy clock that looked really cool.

HQ WVGA Wallpaper Sets (Portrait + Landscape)

As always, credit for wallpapers/photos themselves goes to whoever took them. I merely centered/resized/cropped them.
Please add your wallpapers to this thread, but PLEASE:
Make sure they are high quality
Make sure you crop/resize them to 480x800 AND 800x480, as a set.
Use external hosting for images so that server doesn't get too much load
Female wallpapers don't belong here. There's a separate thread for them.
I recommend splitting them into 2 folders - portrait and landscape, and using them for S2U2 - i hand-picked them to look amazing on Rhodium's screen. That'll put some envy on iPhone users' faces
Also, if you want these as background for your Manila - go HERE (HDWall)
BEST WAY to say "thank you" : upload a screenshot of how your phone looks like with that wallpaper!
Update: Looking for "partner in crime" who would turn these into CABs (with HDWall). If you're interested, please PM me.
Update: CABs, sweet CABs!! I'm still adding them, so a lil' patience =) Remember that the best option is to use these with HDWall (link above).
sirphunkee is creating a bunch of CABs for these wallpapers and some of his.
I've uploaded those that are already done, and have more to come.
Give em a test run, show us how they look on your pda!

Arise, my dead thread!! hehe

how do you add both potrait and lanscape to work ok , do you just put them in the wallpaper file or do you need to do anything else

Excellent work. Are you taking requests for some? I would love a Modern Warfare 2 wallpaper, or one for the Texas Longhorns.

If you just want it on your home tab, you can use the "wallpaper" button in "settings" tab in manila.
If you want it in high quality or for all tabs, you gotta use this program -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503511&highlight=hdwall
It's very easy to use, it will make a cab file that you install. After that, restart manila (or soft reset) and you're done. More instructions in that thread.

Hi, they are gorgeous!!!
One question, in the third set, the second picture (the one with the cliff a stone bridge with one man fighting with what i recon is a beast, and the dragon's bones) where is it from? a video game?

If I'm not mistaken, that is just a high-res, HQ wallpaper made in 3DS or Maya, or one of those. I have a full-size wallpaper of it, definitely not computer-game-level graphics.

These are really good. Nice Hi-Res, highly detailed crystal clear pictures. Thanks.
Do you want a link to these from my HDWall CAB thread as well?

I have Tilt 2. Why is it when I put any picture as a wallpaper on TF 3D the quality does not appear the same. No matter how HQ the picture?

Portrait / Landscape Question
When manually applying custom wallpapers, how do you differentiate between the portrait and the landscape images, so the correct one is used when you open keyboard / use landscape?
I see most people posting a portrait and a landscape version of images....
Thanks,
Michael
