Hello all
First off.... sorry if this has been touched on else where. I've searched the site and can't find a pot like this however will apologise if I have missed one.
Ok, so.... has anyone else found that when they press the start button to access the start menu that the text underneath the program icons is either in a black or white font? With mine there doesn't seem to be any pattern to this either (e.g every other program name is white). I can have 5 white then 7 black and then 2 white and so on. I'm guessing you get the picture. This is making program selection super difficult, as if i choose a light back ground I can't see the white text, and visa versa.
This is also changes too. If I rest my device then they change the order of blacks and whites. If i change the theme it has the same affect as well.
So... does anyone one else have the same problem? Anyone get a fix? or magic cab. to remove this problem?
Thanks in advance

Are you on Vodafone?
If so, this is what you need to do, it's a slightly bad ROM flash from 6.1 to 6.5. It did this to me.
Remove any files you have on the phone's memory, then carry out a hard reset. then re-flash the 6.5 ROM. you should then have a light grey back ground and all black text.

Hi guys, anyone know the registry settings to make the trackball light stay on longer? I have a xda orbit and I love the blue light on the trackball.

I also wants this to light!! Everyone turns around when they see the phone when the blue light is shining.
Hey i'm looking for a tweak to disable it...
A tweak exists but doesn't work on Artemis
Maybe someone should modify the DLL file to do that...
Anyone can help us, otherwise i'll sell it : this blue led is horrible !!!!!!!!!!!!
Count me in!
It must be the way to disable this blue LED!!!
I can`t read in the dark, cause every time I roll it to go to next page, this damn things flashes :-(

Excuse me? Why somebody may want to attract people attention with a blue light? Nothing else to demonstrate?
I want it off for good. Damn thing sits there lighting up all the time at night when i'm using the ball.
You can easily tweak the registy to disable the dll (lightsdr.dll) controling the backlight.
I'v tried and "it works" : keypad stays off but screen backlight is maximum and when you switch off the device you can't switch it on, you have to soft reset...
So it is not the solution but i think it's possible to modify that. But maybe we have to edit the dll file, i don't know ?
Anyone has a better solution ?
HI,
has anyone made any progress with this? The light is bloody annoying when reading ebooks in the dark, its like being in a disco!
I use to read eBooks in darkness by Haali Reader or Alreader. Both programs have tap-zones on screen for preset actions such as page down etc. Their feature is: neither the ball, nor other buttons are shining when you choose the next page by pressing tap zone responsible for page down (or page up etc.)! It's the only way to get rid of anoying shine of the crazy diam...ball!
Blue led
next someone will be asking if it can flash in changing colours.
Flashing LED's do my head in even when trying to sleep the constant flash lights up the room.
a hack would be great.
I think the Flashing Status indicator is the best thing that comes with the PDA... I dont need to switch it on or walk to the table across the room... I just simply look on the Status LED, Green, fine ill just remain seated, Orange, oh wait theres something waiting for me ^^ And at night.... How about turning your PDA to the other side? And this is not meant offensive or funny in any way!!
sorry and not taken as offensive.
I have never used the leds for anything other than annoying colours, but we live and learn.
lets just be clear you are talking about the top leds next to the speaker correct.
god i have had xda, xdaiis, xda exec and now orbit and never knew or even noticed the different colours, just that they bugged me.
I suppose read the manual is the morel of the story.
I still maintain if we could turn them on and off it would be best of both worlds so that at night they dont annoy.
erm, you guys tried keeping your thumb over the annoying blue light?

I tried changing the value's in HKLC\drivers\builtin\jogball\ but also has no effect.
Added DWORD's DisableBacklight, DisableLight, Backlight, no effect either.
Who can Help?
I know this thread is old but did anybody ever find a way to switch the blue LED off?

Solved
I have searched in as many word combinations as i can think of, but i cannot find and answer to my problem.
I just installed Kavana 6.1 (RUU_Excalibur_WM61_Kavana_080408_WWE.exe) rom a couple of days ago (on a T-mobile Dash) and noticed something while i was customizing and making it my own special blend.
I have my Home Screen Layout as the Sliding Panel Media. The problem arises when i attempt to change the colors.
When i change the color scheme to:
Blue - I get the base hue of BLUE but the panel background remains GREEN
Brown - base hue correct, panel background remains Green
Green - everything matches with green (of course)
Grey - base hue correct, panel background still Green
Lake - everything matches with Lake
Light Green - everything matches
Magenta - base hue correct, panel is Green
Purple - base hue once again correct, and panel is still GREEN!
Red - everything matches in Red
My background image is set to Default. I am so sick of looking at green right now. Has anyone else encountered this???
I am having the exact same issue. I just switched to Kavana 080408 from Ricky's v24 and now I can't get the home screen background to work correctly.
Loving that I am not alone in this but sorry you're going through the same issue. Me likes my colors and gotta have em!
Replace the Background
I just did this update today and it seems that you have to replace the background image with something that is a color you want. I don't think that changing the color scheme changes the background image color.
I have encountered this so I tried a hard reset and it worked...
so Try a hard reset and see if this will work for you...
Thanks guys..... I will eventually try the hard reset.

Also, if you would like you can backup everything using Sprite program to back it up so you wont have to reload everything when you do a hard reset on your phone. Let me know if you would like this program.

Yes please......Sprite would make my life easier because there's nothing I hate more than starting over. It usually ends with me remembering the one thing I needed before the reset only to roll my eyes in disgust. I lost some good blackmail material in digital land.....
Something has happened parts of my web pages are now a light cream colour instead of the usual white. This also is present in some menu areas and also same with facebook app.
Example in the facebook app is the box to write your comments in is a light creamy colour same with the comments left by others. I have checked my settings but couldn't see anything that could change this.
I did replace the lcd screen with a genuine screen.
Any ideas whats the go? Thx
the screen you replaced wasn't genuine then. I replaced my screen previously too and all the blues were greenish.

Was this on your arc? All other colours are perferct its some menu items and boxs thar cone up with this cream colour highlite ..
I just asked the guy I got housing and screen from and he assured me its SE stock. It even has the factory applied screen protector.
Looks like nothing I can do will have to get use to it.
Well still no luck. Just to give an example the keyboard butons are a.creamy grey color. Some menu drop.down boxs are the same.
Ive been.assured the screen is genuine by the seller. All other colors are produced properly.
So im stumped as its very anniying. Btw after connrcting phone to tv via hdmi cable it showe proper colots there wich woukd suggest its my new screen ?...
Sorry for the new thread, i don't know how to search for it, that's why I made a new thread. I have a Note N7100 white, and I would like to change the color(skin) of the menu/settings/messages etc. that is black to white. That's surely from android, but if it's someone who could tell me if it's possible, I would appreciate. I searched in all the settings, and I haven't found nothing. So the question would be >>> How can I change the skin from black to white?

they set it to black for a reason.
when amoled is forced to display white, it consumes more than twice the amount of power of an LCD screen trying to display white. you'll burn through your battery too quickly.
when an amoled is forced to display black, it switches itself off and consumes no power, which is why it is set to black by default.
If u want to change your background/color of messages/sms menu .. 1. Choose messages(app) 2. Hit menu touch key and choose settings and there u can change your display options..
I hope this helps for you (thought u wanted ro change only messages/sms menu)

Hey XDA, wanted to get thoughts or suggestions on this.
I noticed what appears to be a stuck pixel on my m8 today, but it doesn't seem to make a lot of sense to me.
Pixel appears to be stuck on (all white), but is only visible on lighter images such as white backgrounds and other lighter colors. Not visible on gray or black images, which seems counter intuitive.
I've restarted several times, run a pixel fix app for about twenty minutes, and verified it's also visible in TWRP recovery, so definitely appears to be hardware.
Any thoughts on a fix, or why it's only visible on lighter backgrounds although is "stuck on" and all white itself? I'd figure it would be more readily visible on dark scenes, but nope!
Thanks in advance for any input.

Im not quite sure how the display works, but maybe the darker images dont activate or light up that actual pixel? Anyways, why dont you bring it to your dealer?
