HTC Official ROM Customising - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

I am very happy with the HTC Official ROM 3.54.255.3 and have customised much of it to look like the Black ROMs with the Kaiser Black Comm manager and the Black Dialer etc.
Thing is, when I dial numbers or am in a call, the numbers and/or text are still in the HTC 'Green' and is impossible to read against the Black Dialer.
Is there any way to change this green background to the nice white colour used for the dialpad keys. (see screenshot)
Many Thanks

Dopod WM6 Dialer Color Scheme

The official Dopod WM6 ROM uses the old HTC WM5 green color scheme on the dialer (everything else has the new color). Has someone created a dialer skin in the new WM6 "aqua" color? I have no problem with the layout, just the color.
Communication Manager also has the old green color.
Try this link I use the black one myself

Thanks, the blue one is pretty close. Be aware that it mentions that if you've upgraded to WM6, you need to reinstall smart dialer.

Who wants the default WM5 Blue theme?

I flashed my S620 back to WM5, copied off the Blue Windows Default XML theme & JPG, renamed to stop it clashing with WM6.
Now i've reflashed back to WM6 and have my old default blue theme, including the WM6 gradient effects on the soft buttons etc.
It looks pretty good if you're not a fan of the new pale green theme.
Enjoy.

I'm actually looking for just color schemes
(*.scheme.xml)
this bright HTC green is getting annoying but I like the layout of the HTC home screen...

You can edit the original home screen to include the color theme and background image of your choice.

[THE][2009-02-04][SINGH'S TINGS - TF3D Core ]TF3D How it was meant to be...

Hi all.
I've been working on this...aswell as panels...and 15 tabs..and other bits here and there.... to create a Tidy up of the TF3D
It is a custom pack.... and it addresses some things that should have been done in the first place In my opinion...
THIS WILL NOT WORK ON ANY MANILA v2/v3 ROMS SO IF YOU USE DUTTY's ROMS... DO NOT TRY THESE FILES.
Let me know what you think of it... and any feedback for enhancements....

Thanks all...Please give your feedback and thoughts for any other enhancements,,
Hopefully you will see, the changes I have made, you can only see as they are pointed out.. but only when put against a stock version will it really show!
As a good tester... bring your HD up with the same page as you are looking at as my pics... then look at changes,, subtle... but better
Right.. Here are the first 2 cabs.
As with everything in TF3D.. turn off TF3D.. and copy/backup all your _manila files from \Windows to your PC. This way.. you always have a return/system restore point.
Manila Core Pack..Install 1st
and then choose one of these
Manila Orange Pack With Background
Manila Orange Pack without Background
and install it second
Thanks

First of all, great job.. I've kind of come to expect this level of work in your releases. Looks simply fantastic!
Now, here's my suggestion: can you provide the option for users to set their own wallpaper before installation - and keep it across all tabs? What I mean - the upcoming .cab would take the Today's wallpaper and, upon installation, set it as the default for all tabs.
Or - a little variant - in case that a single 800x480 .png file is present in the installation cab's folder, take it and set it as a wallpaper across all tabs.
That would allow for some level of personal touch...
Great work, anyway. Looking forward to see in on my HD.

Wow, great work!!
Trust me, that are no small changes, I see them immediately.
What I would personally like:
Indeed a couple of cabs, for example, I would like to have all these changes, except the coloured top icon bar and the background.
For me it would be difficult to change back to original background in all tabs.
Furthermore, the orange theme is really really nice.
You say that this theme will have an option to change colour, does that work ok?
One last thing: in the "orange" theme, did you color it all? For example, also the volume up color, loading bars, etc etc?

Hi...
The ability to embed the background from a pic.. is something i cannot do.
There is nothing stopping someone else writing a prog to do this though...
simpley write the header to a _manila file.. read in the pic... write it into the new _manila and then write in the footer and save the _manila to the right name into the \windows dir.
Would take some coding.. but i'm sure some guys here can do it.
The only thing i can do is make the 2 packs.. and have them so you install the
Core pack with all transparancy and tidy ups..
colour pack - orange / purple / Xperia.
This would be the easiest way..
otherwise you will get
top bar
bottom bar
message icon
mail icon
phone icons comm manager
phone icons settings..
and so on... it would be a real long winded thing to do.
let alone the inability to support all these things
I could create the colour packs (which do colour the volume and progs like mp3 trimmer.. and the highlight bars...) without the background change.. so if you have your own bg files.. they will remain.
i will however put in the new fix i made for the bg Strip problem.
(93 downloads.. so i guess ppl needed it)
(i am working on how to set highlight colours to match in explorer.. I have them done. but i need an easier way)
I am also making the dialer that matches.. so a thin orange shadow behind each button... on a black bg
hope this helps..
thanks for the feedback guys.

No. ALS.. Here in the UK.. old customers could have 2 telephone lines/contrcts/numbers on 1 sim.
Line 1 / Line 2
No longer available.. but those of us still got it.. we can keep it. simply press # to switch lines for outgoing calls.
incoming calls come through on both regardless of which is selected.

Problem with Stock Vodafone 6.5 Rom

Hi all
Just installed the latest 6.5 Rom from Vodafone. All working Fine apart from 1 tiny problem.
When you go to the start menu some of the text below the icons are black and some of them are white. There is no pattern which ones are black or white it changes each time. If you have a dark background like classic blue you cannot read the text..
Hope someone can help
Steve
I gave into temptation and installed the Vodafone wm6.5 rom too, and I also have this bug.
I hope someone can fix this soon, I don't want to have to HardSPL.
