Hi,
I am quite happy with s710, but a small thing annoys me a little.
When you change the Main Screen theme and a colors scheme - one thing stays unchanged - the background picture during making a call. It stays green (in my case) with HTC logo. When havin, say, red colors scheme the green background with two red stripes at the top and at the bottom looks ugly.
How this can be changed ?
thanks
Search the registry for RAI:
RAI: is it a file ? or a folder ? In Windows I cannot find it...
The logo/image displayed during a call in progress, Call History, etc... can be changed in your phone's registry. You need a registry editor to access the phone's registry. Just do a search on the internet for "Mobile Registry Editors". Most of them are free-ware.
If you want that logo to be the same for all screens, you can change the image itself instead of making the registry changes. Your phone needs to be application unlocked. In the Windows directory on your phone you'll find a file called: ms_mobile.gif
By replacing this image, and soft resetting your phone, you've changed most of the screen's logos/display images.
If you want a different logo for different screens, you can use the registry editor to manually set them. Go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Shell/Rai
under the sub-tree you'll find all the screens (MSCdial, MSBranding, ...)
Almost every image can be changed here.
Good luck.
Background
Hi, I also am trying to change the background image when dialing, its the blue/green full screen background which does not really look good with my homescreen.
I have looked through windows directory, but cant find that image? any ideas. I see the smartphone gif, but that dose not bother me to much.
Thanks for any help!
This is the case on the e650
Most likely:
DialScreen_240x320.bmp
DialScreen_320x240.bmp
Incoming_bg.png
And yep, ms_mobile.gif is the banner image.
Better yet...

Hi and thanks for all you help, I have done the above, my phone was an unbranded s710, so did not need to do a lot, but its that fullscreen dialing background that I cant find?
DialScreen_240x320.bmp
DialScreen_320x240.bmp
They were not in the windows folder, I did put my own in there, but after a soft reset, still that image? (see below)

Oh THAT one!!!
Looks like the standard WindowsMobile.jpg. That one can be found in the Windows folder. WindowsMobileLS.jpg for landscape.
Would be wiser to change it in the registry. Make your own screen, copy it to the windows folder and change these registry entries:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\Progress\Portrait\Other\bmpNormal
change the value from \Windows\WindowsMobile.jpg to \Windows\SomeNameForYourCallInProgressScreen.jpg
And for the landscape version:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\Progress\Landscape\Other\bmpNormal
Just checked this on my phone and it works. Let me know if it works for you.
FANTASTIC
Thank you very much for you help, worked with no problems! much better now!!
You're welcome
Glad to hear it worked.

ok guys here my first contribution to the forum, this is a custom slim down 6.1 chome panel credits go to NRGZ28 he made the discovery on how to change the Height and Width of the chome 6.1 panels i just change the values to comfort our 240x320 device's resolution and also i changed the Height and Width of the music and photos icons as they were to big and came out of the panels and they lookt pretty bad so i fix that ^^.
How to install
1.download "rafy_vitto's_custom_6.1_slim_panels.zip"
2.go to setting/home screen change your layout to "windows simple"
3.connect your phone to the pc sync it with active sync go to your windows folder look for the file "CHome_240x320.cpr" make a back up of it(drag and drop it anywhere on your pc).
4.unzip my file and extract the custom "CHome_240x320.cpr" and drag and drop it into your phones windows folder.
5.now go to setting/home screen and change your layout to sliding panel. and thats it your done.
hope you like it and please fell free to ask me any question il be more than happy to answer them ^^

good work. They look pretty nice. Great option for portrait devices
One suggestion, move the date to top of panel instead of hanging off and will be perfect.
here you go mate , tell me if you like it, and btw here's a landscape version
I like this, it looks real slick.
One problem: it lets text drop off the panel in my calendar pane if the location text is too long and wraps to a second line.
But other than that, good work!

Cannot change chome_320x240.cpr file
When I try to replace this file with the slim panel file, I get a permissions error. Tried a registery unlocker and I still get the same thing. What else do I have to do to edit this file?
Move it using Resco or Total Commander.

tried with total commander, still get same permissions error. i have a sprint q9c, maybe they are locking that down in some other way
I have the same problem with a Motorola Q9h (AT&T). Total Commander brings up the same error in Vista that Windows Explorer does and Resco Explorer on the phone says I can't delete the file because it's in ROM!

well, if your phone has wm2002 or 2003/se smartphone on it. Yes. All you need is the program 1-HomeEdit. (http://www.omegaone.com/homeedit/default.htm) Just saw, this also works with newer phones.
It's possible. I have white bars on my Samsung i640 and Treo 500v (both WM6)
I can later upload vodafone theme xml. I can't manage how to make colorscheme from this xml. I'm sure someone will work it out. It shouldn't be hard.
White scheme should look awesome whith Samsung Tab homescreen.
sound interesting
if you could post the home.xml i try to get the color scheme...
tyia
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3360432&postcount=86
you need to edit registry.
As I said, here's the xml Strik3r, could you say something more?
ty arrravel, i get the scheme from your xml, but it doesn't work without several reg hackings: i get the selection red and other stuff is right but the bars are still black.
ty striker, i tried your white cab, but it changed only the bronzeres.dlll and some calling pictures, the bars are still black, but the panel now are really cool ty!
striker, could you (please) list the reg edits to get your white skin working on all devices? (actually i am running a both qvga display with custom 6.1 and not a qqvga, but it is not a problem i suppose)
It doesn't work for me either. I get grey bars with white font on the bottom bar, and grey font on upper. Maybe they should be black, but i640 and Treo 500 have something I call "Asus skin". Look at the pictures of Asus PDAs with WM6 and you'll see the bars are somehow skinned. They are brighter and have sharp line in the middle. I don't know how to describe it. My english is not that good. I whish i could get rid of this.
I thought the scheme would work. It works as a part of homescreen, so why not separetely? Can't get it :/
i think that the scheme works throught registryeditings (the ones mentioned by stiker)
the effect that you call asus effect is the normal wm6 glossy bars?
I don't know what registry hacks he mentioned. I see only screenshots.
Back to the Asus effect, yeah, they are glossy, but look different. For example look at this:
http://www.palmtops.com.pl/images/palmtops/Asus%20PDA%20Phone%20P320_LRG.jpg
and this:
http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/2601/02hz9.bmp
See the difference? This is the same color scheme.
arravel, the sample of white theme:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Home\SlidingPanel white.home.xml]
"COLOR_TITLEFLATDONEBTN"=dword:ffffffff
"COLOR_TITLEFLATCENTER"=dword:ffffffff
"COLOR_TRAYGRADLEFT"=dword:ffffffff
"COLOR_TRAYGRADRIGHT"=dword:00000000

"COLOR_HIGHLIGHT"=dword:00000000
"COLOR_HOMEHIGHLIGHT"=dword:00000000
"COLOR_HOMERULE"=dword:00000000
there white.home.xml - name of your theme
I've tried to use this settings, but my xml is not visible on the list. I'm not familiar with xml files. And this reg entry won't work. I have WM 6.0. There is no upgrade to 6.1 for my device. I want to make a color scheme I can use with every homescreen layout, especialy with Samsung Tab. Would you make it? I'm sure many users will be greatful.
arravel, there did you put theese values?? In xml???? You need to put it to registry!!!

I believe you can just add this line of code into the different cpr files that control all of the different lockscreens.
Make it the third line of code in each one.
<Image ID="Background" Left="0" Top="0" Width="480" Height="640" Visible="True" Opacity="0" ScalingAlgorithm = "TriLinear" Source="\windows\image_name_here.png" />
Here is a list of all the cpr files (located in \Windows) that control the lockscreen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

}
Idk what resolution device you have but choose the cpr files that use your resolution and change the width and height in the code above to your screen res.

Can you put the cpr file in a zip and upload it here. You got the old lockscreen because you "broke" the new lockscreen with an error. Upload it and i'll be glad to take a look at it.

I alredy have backup.
So,I corrected the problem.
Give any other solution to change wall.
Thanks.
Hmm I just tried editing the LockScreen.cpr but it didnt work, nothing changed.
I think only possible way to change the wall is edit the LS_Golbal_240x320.cpr.
But when editing the LS_Golbal_240x320.cpr,automatically lock system not working properly.
Any body have solution to change wall.
Any boby have solution.

Now i successfully changed to 90%.
10% to Complete.
Lock Wallpaper chaged but taskbar have todayscreen wallpaper.
Any body have Solution to solve this?
See Attachment.
Wow great job, what did you do?
I am not quite sure about the taskbar, but maybe you could make it opaque (as it might be transparent), or change the image to the top part of your wallpaper.
Here's a windows 6.5 exclusive wallpaper
Hello. There are many cool themes out there, but I found a lack of themes to change the slider icons of Manila. I searched everywhere for this, but I couldn't find it so I made it myself.
Since the homescreen of Manila is pretty much black & white but those colourful icons really bugged me especially with that terrible green, I really wanted those stock icons to be black & white too. I changed the icons and made a *.cab for this.
Feel free to use this theme if you like it. Note that it will only change the icons of the slider nothing else.

INSTALLATION & DEINSTALLATION
=========================
1) Copy the *.cab to your storage card and execute it on your phone.
2) Install it to your device space, not to your storage card!
3) Soft-reset your device.
4) Enjoy!
To uninstall just normally deinstall this application via list of installed applications where you deinstall programs. The Icons will be like they were before again.
I hope you like it.
lovely, thanks. i've been searching for this for a while. personally, i don't like those colorful stock tabs, too.
thanks and i'll give it a try

Oh, sorry about that. I pretty much searched for hours on the leo boards, but somehow didn't find these. I used the rest of the day to find out how to extract the files from the device and edit them. :/
But since your cab seems to change more things than mine, maybe not all of my work was in vain.

Everytime the retracted slider with these funny coloured buttons showed up my eyes wanted to blast out so they needn't to see this anymore ^^
Works fine on Jackos S3 (WM6.5) with CHT2.0.0
very nice.
running good and looks clearly.
stock in grey looks good.
Some time ago, I have complained about the size of the menus in WM65.
After a little search, I was able to finally make it a little smaller, but still finger friendly.
The attached cab does that. Simply install it and you're all set.

If anyone could redo the sms-chat typing space bigger that would be even better
This change will increase the SMS-Chat area. Look for a file in the windows directory called thread_sms.htm
Use a program such as Total Commander or Resco Explorer to edit the file.
Look for the line <inbox:content id="COMPOSESUBECT" width="98%" height=35 spell...
Edit the 35 value to say 70 and save. May need to soft reset.

Changing Themes
I installed this and worked great. I changed themes to a new one (I believe orange) and the menus were big again. I went back to the blue and it was also big.
1. Will this not work for other colors?
2. Will we have to keep reinstalling this for it work under blue?
Thanks for your hard work.

The thing is that this cab isn't a theme.
And unfortunately to use other colors it would require to edit the files that make up this cab.
I've tried to do it as a theme, but I didn't had any luck.

Okay, so if I want to have the smaller menus again, I would have to go back to the Classic Blue theme and then reinstall the cab?
