I installed the SPB Shell on my HTC HD2, realized that the shell wasn't for me, I didn't like it at all.... So I uninstalled it and was happy to be back with the original screen.
But while I had the shell installed I changed the color theme a couple of times, went back to black.
Now when I reboot the phone it changes the theme color, it goes back to what it calls "windows blue original" and changes the lock screen background to something taky looking in blue....
Only way to go black again is to install SPB, change the color theme to black and then uninstall again.. It is a MOFO to have to do this every time, anyone knows whats wrong and how to fix this problem.
50 views so far... anyone got any ideas on how to solve the problem?
i just rebooted the phone and viola.. there is was again, to blue "taskbar".
i have shell installed at the minute and when looking in the windows directory the other day i noticed what looked like the cab for spb black theme (can't remember name but it had black in it) so install shell, copy cab and install once shell uninstalled.
Problem solved...
I realized that I have nothing that holds me back from doing a factory reset. Did it, resynchronized with our exchange server and viola, all 200+ contacts is back, all calender entry's and email and yada yada yada....
It seems that this also did what I hoped for, the blue taskbar doesn't show up after reboots.
the thread can be locked..

i have an alltel branded 6800. i am looking for a program that simply changes my theme colors without having to manually load a .tsk file everytime. I used mobile shell for a long time and it worked wonderfully for this exact task (read: this is the sort of software i am looking for) but shell was really buggy on my phone and just generally annoyed me. can anyone recommend a program that just switches the colors like mobile shell did? thanks in advance.
change theme color
go to http://freewarepocketpc.net and search for rc mod v2.1 it will change your colors and you can change all your text also.i just went to the site and did a search and it wouldn't find it but it is around page 34 if you want it it works great for me.

i installed the comm manager and well i go to it and all i see is white text what could i do to remove it? i uninstall it and its still there
Try re-installing and then remove again. Other than that, I can only recommend a hard reset. Maybe someone else can recommend another approach.
Can you describe what you are dealing with in a little bit more detail? White text on a black screen, white text on a white screen? Any icons?
I've seen the comm manager freak out because of corrupted fonts before but not entirely sure if that's your issue or not.
well when your on the today screen i click on the comm manager and nothing changes all you see is white letters show up on the today screen like, wifi flight,etc and i installed htc home plugin and well now that does not whant to remove i go to setting,remove programs and its still there wtf?!
I've installed a few apps and all went well until I noticed bars going across the screen when I go into texts and tasks other other similar windows. Does anyone know what this is from? Is it possible to get a virus on your PPC? I've got an HTC PPC6800/Mogul, if that helps.
Any ideas? The bars are the same color as whatever theme I've got applied, maybe that'll make some sense.
*UPDATE*
It's ONLY 'Tasks', 'Text Messages' and 'E-Mail' that's affected by the lines across the screen. They're horizontal lines running right through the text and it makes it pretty hard to read. Also, if I apply the stock skins (Windows Mobile Green & Windows Default) there are no lines at all and everything works like it should. Why are the custom themes not showing up like they should in those three windows?
LOL...i've seen that before...it's caused by the theme...i've made myself some before awhile back and i have the 6800 as well...it's because whoever made the theme that you were using made the background of the task,notes, etc...a color instead of plain white.....no worries...you can actually use themegence to open up the theme and modify it so that the task,notes,etc are white and then you wont see that problem
I'm using the HTC_black theme. IN SBP mobile shell, in TF3D it's looks black as it should, but the today screen has green background.
I am with the original ROM (1.19), and it's annoying, I just want it BLACK.
An ideas how to black that today screen background?
Amir.
In SPB Mobile shell go to settings -> Themes and select "Use a based color theme". Then select the black color
The thing is that I wish to use the black theme on the today screen, SPB mobile shell was just an example.
Still can't get simple black color on my today screen.
HTC Black
Go to Start then setting then click on today. Hope you will see there HTC Black & Windows default. If so select HTC Black press ok and you r done. If HTC Black not avialable you have to search for it.
The point is that the htc black is not black but blue_green. To see it you need to deactivate touchflo 3d.
I would like too a black background.
Exactly!
The theme I currently use is HTC-Black.
On the HTC Diamond when TF3D was disabled, I got simple black today screen. Using the same method even the same file, bringing to different results on the Touch HD.
I even created a simple jpg file using MS Paint, which contains pure & simple black rectangle. Even that doesn't looks black but light Grey.
TF3D does looks completely black, so it's not the screen but some dumb setting somewhere.
Any ideas?
it seems (but i'm guessing) that this issue has something to do with background transparency ? i mean it's like the background picture was "blended" with a totally white layer...
Its the highlighted items that are in green even if you select HTC black.
Try it, open a menu and the send sms or mms will be in green.
Terrible!
Well it's something with the Orange UK (the origin of my device) configuration.
I just installed new ROM, and the problem was gone (others just drop in.... but that's another story )
Amir.
A little off-topic, but can someone post that HTC_Black.tsk file? I recently flashed a new ROM and no longer have it.
I don´t know if the problem is for the ROM or the program SPB Mobile Shell 3, but the background is blue and when I try to change it to black or another, nothing happens.
I have the ROM PDAVIET V83.
Sorry, I cant seem to understand what you mean.
You are trying to change the wallpaper for SPB Mobile Shell right? They have an option to change that in their menu, you cant do that thru start -> settings -> today.
The problem is the backgound
I don´t have any problem changing the wallpaper, the problem is when i try to change the color of the "theme" its always blue also in the carrousel everything is blue, i go to the option of the theme and change the color but nothing happens it still blue.
