WM6.1 HTC Dialer Color Question - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi...
does anyone know how to change the marked colors (see screenshot)?
Thanks...

Is that part of the theme of the device rather than of the dialer itself? I think it's the "highlight" color from themes (*.tsk).

Hi...
no... tried to change to different lighter themes without any changes.

Hi...
so... know i found it on my own... (totally happy after 3 day's of searching)
it's in the Registry...
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\PHONE]
"highlightColor"=dword:007ab434
"highlightTextColor"=dword:00000000
"matchesHighlightColor"=dword:00000000
"matchesTextColor"=dword:007ab434
"textForegroundColor"=dword:00000000
Set's the highlight bar to green and all displayed text to black.
play arround with it...
Cheers,

HTC Home Music Tab Font Color Change

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

About the "green" tap in diamond

Can anyone teach me how can I change all the green thing (the selected tap, selected items, selected phone no., ...etc, but not the one in Manila) to grey or other color? Can it be done on changing registry? Search for long time but still cannot fix, can anyone help on that? Thanks in advance!!
I've just found a registry in HKCU/software/microsoft/today/HTC Black.tsk
there's some keys call "color_highlighttext"/ "color_highlight" ..... etc
Is that the one? How to change to grey color??

I'm interested too... I hate the green on black background
Green tap
As i know that manila files at the windows directory managing the view of the screens. If you use the manila editor you can change the colour and the icons. As seen also the green bar or taps as mentioned.
The highlight colors are in the .tsk file I think. Change your today theme and see if that changes.

Carty..
Yeah but I want to keep the today theme and change the green stuff tu grey... any help?

Using BaseHueExpress, you change away from HTCBlack.tsk to any other theme, (like Windows Default - BaseHueExpress seems to have no effect when using the HTC theme) and then once you change the BaseHue it changes the colours of the focus too like in File Explorer , but not manilla.
Hope it helps

I too would love an orange focus!
Nice and fluoro/fiery.
EDIT: I am creating a cab to have all highlights turned to orange.
Hi all,
Find attached my cab (easy install) and zip for orange focus/highlights.
EDIT: This will change all menu highlights and 'touched' highlights to orange.
Cheers.
Thanks looks great!

Would it be too much to ask for more colours? yellow, red, etc.

I've found a software call "UI Tweaker", it's works on Diamond and I've change all green tap to dark grey already (except the manila you have to do it another way)
But still 1 question, how can I change the green tap on phone skin? It's still there... any ideas guys??
How about a nice bright Red
Could you also please make a dark / deep purple as well? Thank you

Any program that can change Status Bar Backgound Color

Hi NisseDILLIGAF,
I am new to HTC Diamond, really appreciate all links you had put under the "Customizing TF3D - The Collection!", I had learnt alot.
I have problem with changing status bar color on my HTC Diamond, the status bar background color at the bottom of the screen had change to "light grey" instead of "black" color on all of tab option, such as the white "Phone text" and ""Program text" appear on a "light grey" background on the Home page, which leads me very difficuilt to read the "white text", are there any programs that you have or know that can change the background color of the status bar, back to "black" or any colors
Thank you very much
i m having the same problem... any hints?
sorry.. I missed your post earlyer...
I don't know why this has happend... never happend to me...

Start->Settings->Today-> click a WMTheme (HTC Black) -> ok

This happened to me after I installed Mapking. If you have installed this program go to windows/startup directory and delete the mapking sms program. Reset and should be back to normal.

I have the diamond by alltel, and they decided not to even include the black theme for some reason. any other way to do this? I just want to change the top and bottom bars to black. Thanks.
here is what you need
Thanks, but I could not get this to work on the diamond. It said it was going to change the color, but it looks like this program was designed for win mobile 5.
Am I just over looking something? Any other diamond users wanna help me out here?

well... there is a tutorial on how to change font colour in TF3D
(have a look in Customizing TF3D - The Collection!)
But the closest I can get u is this... (without you doing any changes yourself)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2736439#post2736439
but remember...
If u have any other mods (MessageZoom ex...)
then u will replace the file for some tab...
and it may not work, depending on what version u have on TF3D...
