Am using 2.5 Black, but have seen on the Custel version that you have the wireless/bluetooth status on the today screen. Is it possible to get this as a .cab?

It's there!
Goto: start/settings/today/items.
Tick wireless box and any items you need on the today screen.
BLACK 2.5 IS GREAT!
Nope it's not on mine.. I do have the T-mobile Rom version, if it makes any difference
Goto the wiki, instructions are there for making the registry change that will show the wireless status on the Today Screen.
I believe you have to use HTCtweak to enable it. Go through the settings and you should see it. There are three boxes in that menu and you have to check them all and save. I believe it says something like 'enable wireless today screen' or something similiar. (Dont have phone in front of me ...)
Otherwise, you can go to the Wiki and there are step by step instructions that tell you how to edit the registry so that it comes up in the today screen.
Got it... thanks all

It's about BaseHue setting.
Install this program.
The shortcut will be install under 'Accessories'.
Launch the program
Tick on 'Menu'
Tick on 'Select Greyscale'
Drag the marker to your choice
Tick on apply.

Good Luck.

My dear austisync,
Why did you say like that? Please can you elaborate more. Maybe we could discuss it further.
maybe you misunderstand what i mean,i mean that the top and bottom bar is fully black,don't contain a bar of white

hello friend! it works great!!! thanx a lot! now the colors are nicer... bye!
Try this theme
I don't know how it does it, but the attached .tsk file makes everything solid black including the top and bottom bars. It is not a function of basehue.

It;s a BaseHue thing and plus some color registry setting to make it Flat solid. If you don't believe me then check the registry setting in the theme file. Only that if you want a flat taskbar then say it as maybe " I want a solid flat taskbar...bla...bla...bla...". So it's a little bit clearer.
I won't say it in the first place if I don't really know.
OK. Let me extract the registry code for you from your black.tsk theme file.
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Color]
"BaseHue"=dword:000000a0
"4"=hex:ff,ff,ff,00
"6"=hex:6e,6e,6e,00
"10"=hex:4a,49,4a,00
"39"=hex:ff,ff,ff,00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Black.tsk]
"Color_Highlight"=hex:6e,6e,6e,00
"Color_SoftkeyFlatCenter"=hex:00,00,00,00
"Color_TitleFlatCenter"=hex:00,00,00,00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today]
"DPI"=dword:000000c0
Hi, anyone any idea how I turn back on the little icon that was in the top right hand corner of the today screen that looked like a little pile of books with an arrow pointing down? If I clicked on it (when it was there!) it gave options like turn off all etc, as though it was a memory saving programme. I think it's like the comm manager in WM5.
I clicked onto it today, and managed to untick the box that showed it on the screen and now can't find it anywhere!
Help greatly appreciated.

TyTTN 2 running WM6
go into settings - it should be either under task manager - or "X" Button
That's where I would start
I would start by doing sth else
I would start by learning the names of the programs -especially the basic of them- available for windows mobile.
here is a cab file to install it in case you don't have it

I cannot get a WM5 "like" top and bottom bar for first boot under WM6/.1, tried setting a theme in OS and then using the BASEHUE value, it works for color but not for the 3d look of WM6, I'm after the flat look. Searched high and low to no avail.
Any advice appreciated tia.

If I understand your post, a "flat look" of WM5 can be achieved by using a WM5 theme on your WM6.1 device. Try this .tsk file and then change the basehue value to see if that works.

The theme and BaseHue value are not the issue, I want my "custom rom" (appearance) on first boot to have flat black look, it doesnt really matter thanks anyway.

I was able to get the top bar black by using 00000 for the dword value.
How do I edit the color of the bottom bar?
I've got to ask the dumbest question ever, but I've looked through all my settings and cannot figure it out. How do I change the background color of the clock and the task bar from the blue it is now (see attached) to black like the calender is? Sorry, but I just can't find the setting. Any help is appreciated!
I do have the new AT&T ROM with co0kie's Home Tab.

haven't heard of anyone doing that yet...with our settings...sounds like you would need a CAB to change those. I know there are some for the task bar that I have seen floating around.
Where did you get the ROM? ---> i just got the new official Rom
Is that the official leaked one?
Did you have to flash to install?
What's the Cookie's home tab?
Thanks

It's the official ROM off the HTC website. I've seen so many screens of the HTC Tilt 2 with the colors I want, I'm guessing that they may have been cooked ROMs. The Co0kie's Home Tab is the editor that allows for tons of customization of the home screen and options, it's great. Thanks for the reply and if you find out anything on how to change the colors, please let me know.
I Found It!!!
http://tp2.bfgreenberg.com/Sense25New.htm
You can change the home tabs and a lot of the other Icons!
I used these when I had TouchFlo3D on the original ROM, to add the sense, colored slider: Touch pro ones are here: http://tp2.bfgreenberg.com/tf3d.htm
The ones for us on the new Rom is the first link, for sense ui stuff.
Where did you get the Cookies Home Tab?
Thanks
Just Tried the Icon Package for this one, they look great! No more Black and white look!
Will try the slider bar next
I found a few more, that I am about to try, here's the link where I found them:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529576&page=91
Couldn't get this Transparent Slider to Work...haven't tried the clock or curtains...
Noticed you don't have a Task Manager in your Task Bar at the Top Too.
This one is Great! Same thing we had in the Original Rom
Now we just need something to change the icons in Task Bar...add something with color!
This one will let us design our own slider with our icons of our choosing and set all the wallpapers to be the same...haven't tried this guy yet...but this looks better, just a little more work than just the transparent slider.

You can go here http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-co0kies-home-tab.html and find Co0kie's Home Tab, works great for me. I'm going to check those links you posted and will get back to you on how they work. Thanks for the updates, too. I'll definitely need the Dutty's Task Manager. I already downloaded it, just haven't put it on my phone yet.

Thank You! I added this, happy to get some more quick link tabs!
I added the Icon Package and the Glass slider.
When I tried the Transparencies for the Quick Links...I tried versions C, BUT it caused the images for "Quick Link Contacts" to Disappear ... so i took it off, I haven't tried version A or B yet.
There are some glitches when uninstalling the Glass slider, since it is slightly to the right, you stalk slider becomes slightly to the right when you uninstall the Glass one.
Screen Shots show the Icon package...gives color to everything. Plus, in the 6th picture you can see what I mean by the slider being slightly to the right after uninstalling the Glass slider....a little annoying...will probably put the glass one back, I was just playing with different things, untill i have time to try HDWalls app...which looks a little more complicated.
Ok, Added the Transparent Slider Back in, and the App to remove the Blue background behind the clock.
First Pick is w/the Blue back ground and the others without it.
Slider is slightly too the right in All People and some of the other things, but not bad enough to cause any real issues.
I Installed the Transparent Quick Icons Version B, and it did the same exact thing as Version C, but keeps the icon Images for Contacts in Quick links, so issue solved.
Here are some shots to give you an idea.
Looks Great!
Wow, those look really good, Strange Shadow. I think I'm at the point where I've kinda got things where I want them, but now I must have that taskbar (love the colors and icons). Which taskbar was it? I tried one of the ones you posted, but I found several icons missing when I installed it, so I uninstalled it. I'll take some pics later today of what I've got now. I think the transparent or glass sliders did exactly what I wanted which was to get rid of the blue. Thanks again!
Latest Screen
So, here's what I've got so far. Was having some issues with the tabs on the slider having a blue shadow/background. But when I go into the contacts, it seems to disappear. Anyhow, I like your taskbar and icon packs, gotta give them a try.

I'm using tsowentaskbar6v3.1(lite).cab for the task bar (cab added to this post)
Haven't had any problems with it.
I went with the Version C for the Quick links, it gets rid of the shading around tabs and names, the photo issue I had earlier is gone now...I think I originally put them on in the wrong order, the slider is suppose to go last.
I noticed the same thing, with the blue patch after a soft reset, but I just go to contacts then all contact, then back to home screen and it goes away.
Now that I look, I am missing the Text Message Icon in this one, when I get a message, the original white message box appears...hmm....that's the only one I have noticed so fare...I might try a few more within the next couple of days.
I also noticed that the reception bars are not showing, when nothing is going on, I just have the earth with one tiny bar, but when making a phone call, they appear with the phone icon, I am going to try v6.2.1 and see if it changes anything
BTW, I have been installing these on my strage card, to save device space, not sure if this is the reason for any of this, I will try on the device too, some time later
Gonna give that taskbar a try and let you know how it works for me. I'm so much of a noob that if I have to change anything in the registry or something along those lines, I'm done with it. If it's not a cab file that self-installs, I won't risk screwing something up. I'd like to sit down and learn hands-on, but don't know anyone in my area. Thanks again.

Yeah, I'm the same way, if it's not an easy Cab install/uninstall I'm usually not too interested. I prefer the easy cab install to make sure nothing gets messed up.
I would do more if someone could show me a step by step, and show that it worked fine with their 'personal" phone without ruining anything.
Good luck, I tried 6v.2.1...it has the same issue, keeps the old wm text message, and doesn't show the signal strength...I'll try installing them on the internal memory...see if that makes any difference...which I doubt will...
Further down his page there is one for Wm6.5... I tried it, and was SOOOOOo excited when I found that the Signal Strength option Finally Worked!
But...the Speaker indicating sound/vibrate/silent is completely gone...
DUDE! I FOUND ONE! w/the signal actually working!!! lol
So fare the only thing I noticed is that the Text Message Icon is still the old white Bubble, but the Signal is working and the battery looks great!
Here it is: CAB
Just found another annoyance, the Volume Controls are changed a bit now, when you press the up/down side volume hard buttons, the image is slightly different, the bars indicating the Volume are now 3/4 the length of the original, with the first 1/4 no longer existing
Task manager and red X over lap sometimes too...but not a huge deal.
Screen Shots...nvm in my room, I can barely get two bars lol
