Removing Horrible Green Hilight - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Hi,
Can anyone advise of a cab or regedit which removes the nasty green hilight when you select things from the menu's and in touchflo?
I have searched this fourum and others for days and tried various cabs and regiedts but nothing seems to work for the Touch HD. I would like to make the Dialler and all selections red (looks nice on black) but cant find a way of doing it.
I know how to edit the .tsk theme to get the colour I want in the wm6 menu's but the dialler, large startmenu and touchflo remain green.
If anyone can help please post back.
Cheers

Yes, u can change ths settings with HD Tweaks 0.5.4

Ok, But I have HD tweak 0.5.3 and it appears that 0.5.4 is only availiable in french.
As it is in French can you please confirm which setting allows it to be changed? (In French)
Many Thanks.

hmm..
i think i have seen a thread about changing the highlight color in TF3D, search the forum
for the enlarged start menu, i don't have a clue how to change the highlight color for it
but for the dialer, i have found it somehow:
use regedit, go to:
[HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE]
highlightColor="0x5AA200"
highlightTextColor="0xFFFFFF"
well, pretty self-descriptive.
just change the hex code to the color you want.

Otherwise you also have this soft I think : http://mobile-sg.com/software/?p=UITweaker&platform=ppc

Changing text color of IntelliDailer?

Hi Everybody,
I have an alternate Dailpad Skin on my HTC Wizard installed and everything is ok expect the text color of the
popuped Intellidailer. It have black text on grey ground. Does somebody knows how to chanche the text color?
In the registry I found only the key for the standard text (e.g. last call from ... and so on).
Is it a registry hack or a hack in a .dll file ? Which file is important for the Intellidialer (T-Mobile)?
I cannot find anything in this forum about it.
Thanks

Readable SmartDialer in B&B v3.7

Hi!
I've made some changes to the phone skin and the registry settings to make the SmartDialing more usable, at least in my opinion. I also posted this information in the B&B v3.7 release thread, but since that threat has become so large, it is hard to find just the information you are looking for. So I thought I start a new thread on this issue.
There has been many questions and opinions about the color of the smart dialer included in B&B v3.7. Most of the persons with questions did find the text hard to read, due to the low contrast between the text and the gray background. I tried to tweak the registry settings in HKLM\Software\HTC\SmartDialing to get it better, but the problem was really the dark gray background, so I thought I should try to do something about it. The result is is what you see in the attached screenshots. The registry settings and changed skins is attached.
Copy the BMP's in the zipfile to windows of your device (with a software that can overwrite files in ROM, e.g Resco Explorer or total commander) and import the registry changes (e.g with Resco).
Regards,
PK

How to get HTC's official WM6 but *without* the HTC green theme

Hi folks,
My device is off being repaired to cure the screen alignment issue but while I am waiting for it to return I was wondering if there was a way to stop the HTC green theme being applied to the device after I do a hard reset?
I would like just the plain WM6 default theme.
I have read about this thing called ExtROM, which is where the operator install files are hidden? So this is where the evil green theme lives until it gets installed?
Can anyone tell me if this is possible?
FYI I have a generic HTC, sim-unlocked TyTN.
Thanks,
gambcl
Um well you can do a search on google and find millions of PPC themes the green theme is just the default one set by the Preconfig.txt WM6 also comes installed with a blue theme and a red theme BTW they are called .tsk files
Umm, yes I know about .tsk files, but they do not get rid of the HTC green skin on the dialer, pin screen, etc. do they?
I was thinking the cleanest solution was to just stop the HTC green from ever being applied in the first place by maybe deleting the relevant install files from the ExtRom and then doing a hard reset.
Does anyone know if this is possible? I've never touched the ExtRom before, I know I have to unlock it and I can read about that, but what exactly would I do after I have unlocked it?
Thanks,
gambcl.

For the screen commmanager try disable this file in extended: Green_Commger.CAB.
For the dialer take a look at ZombieNexus dialpad. I use one 3G dialer to subst the green one in HTC.
For the pin pad, try one of the CABs in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321733 Youll have a black touch pinpad after install one of them, and of course the battery icon with detailed info
Hopes this helps.
This is exactly what I would like to know too. How to disable the green theme to load after hard reset.
I like the base blue theme, but that green theme changes the dialers etc.
Don't want other themes to replace them. Just to disable it not to load after hardreset.
I see that it loads a xml file that was named based on the theme, I just don't remember it atm. maybe I'll just have to fiddle with the extrom.
If anyone already has a working solution, please post it

Sorry, but the gree colors in pinpad is caused by a DLL in the ROM, not by some CAB installed after the HR. So you can only chage this changing this DLL.
About the DialPad, well, seemed as before, but with a lot of graphics files. You need a theme to change the green color and bottons (graphics files). Can't disable after HR. Only you can disable the default skin in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin making Enabled parameter to "0"
but you loos the 3G dial and SmartDialing. If you have 0 by default in this parameter, then you can't do more.
The only one i could disable is Green Commanager in the extended.
The other way to customize all this is, of course, cooking your own ROM
Regards.

Hey!
My touchpal-yota-skin 0.5 vga
This is a test version! Please try it and post bugs and improvements.
Please take a look to the "press-effect" on quertz keyboard and the t9 ones! One is grey/glass and one red/glass... what do you prefer?
To Do:
:: better "enter/backbutton"
:: the yellow highlighted typo
:: kill the white line (need help with that) *edit* White line is killed!

:: download resources.zip and exstract to your touchpalfolder --> overwrite all
:: softreset --> voilá!
Changing Smileys:
If you want to change the smileys, there is a second file in the zip. Rename the emotional.png to what you think. Change the name of "emotional gant yota.png" to "emotional.png" --> softreset --> voilá!
Thx!
P.S. I won't change to yota font. I take a look to the file, calculate the work and get grey hairs... I like the original font!

Smileys in SMS? Is this something you are working on, or is this something already released. In case, from where did you get it? Thanx
No, touchpal uses smileygraphics for a nicer look, but in sms / mms / mail you see only the normal signs like : - )
smiley icons have to be cropped to lose the white shape around or u could make glassy wot is white right now.
Hi defcon2000 !
I have two questions
It is written VGA in the tittle but the HD is in WVGA!! So will it fit correctly or not ?
Then I would love to get an azerty version... could it be possible please ?
Cheers

That's no problem... the width is important not the height. I use the touch HD and it works fine!
The problem with the azerty is that I don't have the files for it. Can you send me the fontstyle files? I think style1.png and style2.png are enough. / Can you try it and tell me the differences?
Hi, I love the looks of this! Very well indeed!
Few questions and suggestions if you don't mind:
- is this German version, or will it adapt the "send" and "message" words depending on what the System language is?
- what is needed for this to work? Yota?
And would it be possible in first post to make a list of all known bugs, so people can decide if it's worth trying out or too risky. This is something I think every developer should do here, because not everyone is very good at restoring their phone to earlier state. And I'm personally always worried that I'll mess something up
Cheers!
Thank you!
This is only a skin for an existing application named touchpal. http://www.cootek.com/
touchpal is my personal favorite for typing with the touch hd because it's very fast, thumb usable and have an awesome word recognition.
the skin is based on the german files. I don't know if there are differences to the english skin. the most files are pure graphic files without text and the text on dpad are english in the german version too (because of the lenght of the translation I think).
It's not risky to try but backup your /touchpal/resources folder as described in first post.
from my side no known issues without the two I described in first post.
Work great for me
Thanks for sharing. This looks great Would also love to see a HD keyboard skin with Yota keyboard
this is really awesome!!!!
Thanks a lot it as working perfectly with my azerty keyboard!!!

no, its just from wm6.1 emulator that called Windows Mobile Green
I think it must be a Default Theme for all WM 6.1
This is beautiful.
Truly beautiful. I've been looking for something to replace the default Diamond White Touchpal skin with and this is perfect.
I'll mention that owning Touchpal is a legacy from my previous phone, a Trinity, which was QVGA and had about a hundred choices of Touchpal skin. This is only the second I've seen for VGA. There's a direction pad in Touchpal, which makes it useful in certain circumstances such as some games.
Being a fan of green, I was wondering if you could produce a green "space" .png that I could drop in. It would dramatically improve the colour scheme for me.
Even if not, let me give you three thumbs up.

[THEME- ref ] Default black + color pack for manila

This is my beloved black/green original HTC Manila theme and maybe a "reference" for others manila skinner.
Black default HTC theme for graphics & default green highlights for all colored components (checkbox, buttons and so on)
no screen needed as we all known default htc black theme
developed and tested with itje's latest build, currently T-mobile one from 6.1 2.604 kitchen. Feel free to try on other roms, it should work, but keep in mind that results may be different.
why 2 cab? to separate "static" graphic elements form indicators, selectors and so on. It's a huge work, done once for all (I hope ).
guap Manila Default Black.cab contains only "static" graphics (tabs, bars...)
guap Manila Green Hilights.cab contains only "skinnable" items (selectors, checkbox, buttons) to keep simple for others to change colors on their own without having to search all of them.
If you want i.e. to make a "red" theme, just edit files in Highlights.cab and you're ready
Or if you want to have black back on your t-mobile manila but keeping the blue/gray selectors and indicators, you can install only Default Black
How to install: disable manila, install cab (always to device if asked!!!), then re-enable manila. Soft reset shouldn't be required, but has to be the first option in case of weird behaviours
All cabs are unistallable and shold be an harmless process, but ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP with something like sprite backup or spb backup.
Other goodies
guap Green Fingermenu.cab for default green fingermenu
guap Green UsbToPC.cab for default green UsbToPC popup
guap Manila Green EnlargeStartMenu.cab for green EnlargeStartMenu
guap Manila Blue T-Mobile EnlargeStartMenu.cab for restore t-mobile colors on EnlageStartMenu (as this requires registry entries, isn't sufficient to uninstall the green one)
guap Manila Green Taskmanager.cab for green TaskManager (tnx to itje)
guap Manila Blue T-Mobile Taskmanager.cab for restore t-mobile colors on TaskManager (as this requires registry entries, isn't sufficient to uninstall the green one)
Default Indicators.zip once for all, some files MUST to stay green, i.e. the stock chart indicators: they are these files, if you get fuzzy stock indicators installing a custom theme, drop this in \windows and should be fix
Fix
guap Manila raindrop fix.cab t-mobile manila has ugly rains, probably messed up during blu-colorizing process: this will fix ugly raindrop on weather tab
Sorry about rapid, but this manila doesn't support cfc, these 2 are too big for the board:
guap Manila Default Black.cab -> http://rapidshare.com/files/216177011/guap_Manila_Default_Black.cab
guap Manila Green Hilights.cab -> http://rapidshare.com/files/216177012/guap_Manila_Default_Green_highlight.cab
...reserved...
Nice! Are different colors coming in the futue?

@BobAndrews: not from me at the moment. I released separate cab to encourage other users to make their own skin starting from standard green package
with a script (even in photoshop afaik) should be simple to change saturation to all files at same time

Realized that this is still missing the new modifications to the dialer..
but those have to be done in the registry, which is a lot of work.
Dont blame ya if you dont want to do it
Nice one, Is there anyway to get the clock white ?

wich modification? This is related to manila only, manila isn't supposed to have a dialpad
can you post a screen?
@tomzibad: of course, open package with m9editor, extract clock png (they are clearly recognized ) and make your own color
Is there anyway to change to selection colour for the notification manager?
When I click it, it's still the same colour that I got rid of everywhere else. I still have a weird blue/grey/purple colour. And I would like the green in the notifications manager.
uhm maybe I missed it. Take a look in the latest kitchen, components are sort by directory, should be simple to find the misssed bmp for notification manager

thanks guap for your cabs, very useful.
I installed them to remove t-mob customizations in the rom i use. I wanted to rollback to default HTC classic scheme.
But after applying the cabs, the UI remains the same, strange to me, even the flip-clock (I don't like t-mob white-on-black clock). Your cab contains both square backgrounds, as well as digits, suppose the digits are white and the background is black in your cab file?
Pls advice, howto revert to black-on-white flip-clock?

Hi. I have problem with distorted graphics on the email tab (email account select). Any1 has experience with this problem? I am using green buttons, selectors etc. and Itjes 7+ final or Smabergs 6.2 ROMs
Dear knaplullig, guap
I noticed a problem, after installing Plain HD TF3D.cab,
my start menu stopped working (before when tapping on 'start', I had programs menu, not the classic start menu).
Which .manila file is to blame?
Dear All,
anyone, who uses this Plain TF3D tweak, do your start menu work ok?
Mine (I had programms when tapping 'start' -- before installing Plain TF3D cab) just stopped responding to taps. Winkey on Hw keyboard works (old-style start menu).
Anybody has suggestion, what has to be corrected in order to have responding startmenu back again?
FOUND!
I've found the file which froze startmenu.
It's 5c9aa261_manila. Can it be fixed somehow?

Did you find a way to fix this? I tried installing it and had the same problem. It won't remove either so I may have to reflash
not to reflash you just have to re-instal and then remove the program.
also you can try this threads solutions.
