is there any way i can do to change the HTC home today plugin colour?
i am stuck with blue,and found that other colours are more attractive
In the "Windows" directory, there will be a lot of *.pngs with names beginning with "HH_" each one of those will need to be replaced to change the colour. I'd suggest looking around the Development and Hacking forum as someone will probably have released some other colour schemes. You could also try a search for colours/themes...
Or...u can see HERE
U can edit ur HTCHome pluggin with my own icons....

Is it possible to make a full theme change for windows mobile 6? I mean not like Wisbar Apps or any other type that is similar to it. I mean changing the colors, backgrounds of the phone and any other winmo6 embedded software.
Here is an example of want i want it to do. lets say that you are changing the theme of your winmo6 to blue but you want to keep the same look and feel to it with out install a cab to change the phone the blue color in stead when you change the color to blue it will change everything on your device blue too.
thanks

it does not change the phone color just the today screen
There's two applications I know of - both change various aspects of your colour schemes; one is "RC Mod" (get it here) and the other is called "UI Tweaker" (from here).
Have a look, see what you think

first link is uesless, it's in italian for the most part. And UI Tweaker just changes colors, not the dial pad.
Unless someone comes out with an app that lauches the color changes as well as a cab install for the phone dialer, there isn't a current app to do this. This is one of the drawbacks I have hate about WM. It was never designed to do whole system color coding, you can change the theme which does change system colors, but there is still a lot of white coloring thru out the OS and the dial pads, keyboards, etc never change color with the theme.

I must have misunderstoof the first post incorrectly then, but I didn't see the OP ask about changing the dialer.....all of the colours on the dialer are images anyway, so it makes no difference what colour the rest of the UI gets changed to...
The first link is useless coz the attached images are dead links and the post is mostly in Italian because the author is, like, Italian....you obviously stopped reading after the first couple of words
I agree that WM 6.0 lacks any decent "UI tweaking" capabilities - hopefully MS will address that deficiency in 6.1, or 7.0, or 8.0, or........maybe not
Mark.
Since the dialer, theme and everything else is controlled by images and registry edits I believe you just have to delve in with Mortscript and learn how to script it yourself. Mortscript will then batch process it in the same way you can do it yourself manually. But once you do it'll be pretty sweet. You can have a iPhone script, a Touch script, etc. for one click overall theme change. Its just getting familiarized with Mortscript and digging into dialpad CABs to see what registry/files need to be modified/copied. Heck if you are going that route you might as well see if its possible to manually copy over some of the welcome screens as well. =P
Just curious, do you honestly switch your entire phone theme that often? And need the phone pad/dialer to be changed as well? Have you even tried installing a dialpad CAB, then another one on top of it, then another one on top of that one...just to see if it creates any corruption?
Shantz is great cause it does exactly what it needs to do on changing the theme or background and he even has an option to allow you to run an external program (mortscript) so that it can copy the background onto other programs such as S2U2 and WAD (and in the future...possibly PointUI Home background).
So if you are willing to give up on the idea of installing a dialpad CAB (perhaps install a neutral gray or black one), the task will be a lot easier with Shantz and a little bit of Mortscript coding.

This software is not to change colors, but it has a theme modifier feature that changes the color of that ugly scroll bar on right today screen, and the default buttons etc. Very fun! There is a trial version on website.
TEST IT
Have a look at this program:
http://www.codeppc.com/telechargements/themegence/themegence.htm
it can create new themes or modify an existing one (you can copy the existing one from your windows directory)....
I'm looking for some good HTC Touch themes that dont require the user of WAD WA3 UL ect.. Is this possible? If not, The program needs to be very light on the battery. Any ideas?

Okay, I was able to get what i want by using HHC Today Customizer, The only problem im having is on the today screen theres a thin grey line splitting up icons like on the main screen.. The email, sms, and missed call icons are devided by a thin grey line. this same grey line devides up icons in the other sections of my today screen as well. How do i get rid of it?
Also does anyone know how to change the buttons on the bottem, I think their called softkeys. Theirs two of them, Mine say calendar and contacts.
once again a search would suffice ur needs...to my knowledge...theres no way of getting rid of those separator lines...theres things u can do to change the colour of it to best match your walpaper...and please search...on how to change your softkeys...a search for advancedconfig will solve your problem
I was looking for a solution to changing the font color on the HTC Home Music Tab to something other than the pastel blue.
I couldn't find a solution on this forum so I hacked it myself. I changed the font color from blue to white so it matches other themes better. It is only a hex change on six digits.
I am sharing this file in case anyone else want it as well. I also changed the progress bar color to green since the Diamond theme is all the rage nowadays. But the progress bar color is easy to change back.
The files came from HTC home version 2.1 build 1005722. I took it from one of PDAViet's newer WM6.1 rom for Hermes.
This is my very first hack and I only tested on my 8525. It is working fine. But please report back if anything is wrong.

The theme really is just Empex's diamond theme V2 together with tnyynt's HTC background. So the artwork credit belongs to them.
I added tweaks to it wrt MS application background color and command bar color.
There is a bug with my tweaks where if you boot up the device running my theme, the "start" text and the "time" on the top bar is missing. You can resolve this by switching to a standard theme and then switching back. I haven't really looked into what is causing this bug (hasn't bother me since I don't reboot that often) but if anyone knows why this is the case then please help me out here.

If it's only a six digits change, why would I have to install a 2,3 MB CAB file?

yes, it is only a six digit hex change on the main dll.
Problem is though there are so many versions of HTC home floating around, I don't want people to just download the dll and replace what they currently have. This may lead to compatibility issue.
Hi very good work but it may not help me because of the version. Could you write some tutorial about how to change? (I mean where inside the dll should I change) I would like to change the color of the weather tab and I could open the dll file by hex editor. Thx
@ Lolento can i ask what is the name of the dll file please as i would like to try other colours
Is there any way i can change the operator and date color on htc home?It's grey and i want to make it black in order to be readable with some specific wallpapers i have.Maybe a registry edit, i dont know...I searched the google but it leads me to solutions for the htc home generally using HHC.Thanks in advance for any help
Hi,
I recently had to do a hard reset and having re-installed various cabs and teaked TF3D, I noticed that the font colour under "Settings" "Sound" and "Settings" "Data" are no longer visible - i.e. the font isnow white on a white background
I have attached two shots of what I mean ...
I have trawled through threads and cannot find an easy solution ... would be grateful for any pointers.
Thanks

Easy solution would be to use a darker wallpaper

thank you for that - I have the HTC Black wallpaper on all screens except certain sub-screens - e.g. "Music" is black but "Music" "Library" is white (but with black font so not a problem here) and although the same applies to the "Settings" tab which is black, "Settings" "Sound" and "Settings" "Data" are white but the font is white too - baffled but hoping to find a solution ... been reading about changing font colours in manilla files but there are so many and without knowing which one to edit, it would be almost impossible to find
Sorry I don't have the answer (I have been looking for this myself).
I thought the font going white problem was to do with installing one CAB (possibly the +call history, +comm manager, + calendar one). I think the white font on the new comm manager changes the font colour for various other things too - might be wrong on this
I had fixed it once, had to hard reset, and broke it again. I can't find it in search, but this might prompt some memories or let you search it.
edit:
I have found the post
Solution thanks to NisseDILLIGAF

I think the grey font works on both, you might need to edit the colour manually though if you can't see it
