My bottom toolbar has stopped having the gradient from whatever theme, and just shows up as a solid pale colour. This started yesterday. My phone ran out of battery and turned off, which is what caused it I'm guessing.
I have tried changing themes and soft resetting. If I choose a different theme, the bar will change colour to whatever the WM6 scrollbars/buttons are.
Its really ugly and I can't work out how to fix it. I'd really like to avoid hard resetting though..
If I press a softkey or the SIP button then the gradient appears on only the button pressed momentarily. Check out the attached screenshots.
I'll give this one bump before I resign myself to a hard reset :/

I have added two new themes to the FUZE and they are listed in Settings/Today. However, the theme does not change on the Today Screen when I select the new theme. I can only have the default theme no matter which theme I select. This all happens when I turn off the Touchflo 3D and try to use only the original Windows Mobile 6.1 Today Screen. Anybody can help?
Which themes have you added? Are they for different system colors?
have you tried a soft reset?
hello, are you hitting the ok button after you select the theme, does it change if you select on of the included default themes?
lupe
Are they Qvga themes or Vga themes ?
These are VGA themes. Even I tried to load the original Windows Mobile Green and Guvava Bubbles, there is no change. Only the Windows Mobile 6.1 would change the top bar to a dark green color. Yes, I always hit the OK button after selecting a different theme and I have not tried the soft rest yet.
Thanks!
Soft reset
Soft reset that dude.
As suspected, Soft Reset did not change anything.
i have the same thing happen when i add a new tsk. i put them in the windows folder, soft reset, and some times it takes changing the theme 5 or 6 times to get it to take. i don't have a solution i just keep trying it till it takes.
Changing themes.....not happening
I am having the exact same problem. No theme takes, I only get the green color across the top when I choose the win mo 6.1 theme. Nothing else.....any other suggestions out there?
Are you trying to change the WinMo theme or the touchFlo3D theme?
The Window Mobile theme... I am having the same exact issue... I can't get rid of this horrid green windows theme. No matter how many soft resets i do.
Actually I figured this out myself. But it comes at a price.
It takes doing a hard reset on the device. Not the one using the volume button center button and the reset. Won't work don't try it.
Goto the start menu ---> settings ---> system tab ---> clear storage (yes you can guess what does) So I would backup any files you need before doing this process.
The phone will go through the same process as it came outta box when you bought it. If you were like me it came out green outta the box. It seemed a second chance of reload the Flo3D software made the phone have a change of heart and allow me to make the window mobile theme whatever i wanted on the first try.
Hope this helps others.
I just got my Fuze on Monday and out of the box the top and bottom bars on the today screen were green. So I tried to change the theme to Guava Bubbles because I like red but nothing happens. No matter what theme I choose the bars stay green. My wife's phone has the same problem but hers is stuck gray.
What am I doing wrong?
Make sure you disable TF3D first, change the theme and soft reset.
It should work.
Tried that already several times. No luck.
Sometimes it takes a few tries. Its like the classic theme doesn't want to be overwritten but if you go through each theme, eventually one will change.
When I encountered this, I found a cab called black bars, and had to load each theme then try the cab file after each theme loaded.
So you're saying if I change the theme and soft reset it several times it should take?
Just change the themes without resetting
Figured it out but it's not an ideal solution. No matter how many times I did a soft reset it wouldn't change. I had to go into settings and select 'Clear Storage'. This basically reset the phone to factory settings. After that it let me change the theme.
Now can anyone tell me how to change the two selections on the bottom bar of the today screen? Right now I have Calendar and Contacts but I'd really like to replace Calendar with Phone.
Just do a reg edit to HKLM\Software\HTC\Manilla and change the HomeLSKPath and HomeLSKText for left soft key and repeat for right key, HomeRSKPath and HomeRSKText.
Path = Program location (eg., Program Files\Phone.lnk)
Text = Soft Key name. (eg., Phone)
I have the latest stock ROM for the Verizon TP2 WM 6.5. I have made everything transparent on my home screen except i cant figure out how to make the Verizon Wireless semi transparent bar with the logo go away all together. I have tried half a dozen files and none of them makes it truly go away all together. Other than maybe transparent home slider icons or the slider button(not the slider itself) which I cant get to work either, my home screen would be perfect. Any help would be great. If i am missing the posts just point me in the right direction and i am sorry in advance.

You might have to do a combo of remove curtain + remove logo + personalizer (to change the text "Verizon" to whatever you wish)
Yea exactly what i tried before...but the semi-transparent bar is still there..everything else is gone...need to remove the bar as well.
Thanks for the info anyway.

Here is a whole list of opacity and bar removals, if it isn't here then I don't know where you'll find it.
please take a screen shot of what you want fixed.
Here it is...I would like the semi-transparent bar where the words Verizon are removed. I also want the Verizon Wireless text gone as well. The personalizer cab just makes it disappear temporarily.. and like every couple seconds it flashes on and then goes blank again. I don't want that. I have tried like 6 or 7 cabs and none of them would remove that specific semi transparent bar. On a side note, I wouldn't mind the silver square behind the home icon transparent as well. None of those cabs worked as well.
Thanks for the help!
Unzip rar then copy to windows directory using total commander.
1. Settings menu.. Font is white (want it grey) but if I scroll it off the page and bring it back, it's black. It should stay gray always (once I make it grey).
2. Longpress on homescreen, this menu (and others on the system) are grey background with black text. I'd like black background with grey text.
3. Hit the power button.... this menu is grey background with white text. Id like black background with grey text.
4. After longpressing on the homescreen, if I choose say, Andoid Widgets, that screen is grey with white text. It also has the mysterious changing font color to black issue like #1 does.
Where are those menu's? Ive edit a bunch of stuff but none seem to be the right one.
Just as a sidenote, I am specifically looking for the xmls that control these. The backgrounds were white before I went messing with them so I know my image edits changed that. However, the images are set how they need to be. So, I need to find the xml's so I can point those 4 specific items to something else.
Hi,
Since the update to one ui 2.0, i have a permanent black bar where the navigation buttons usually go,(i used gestures btw).
Its like the black bar you get under the keyboard which i have turned off, but still just get an empty black bar at the bottom of my screen now.
I've drawn round it in red to show what I'm on about in the attached picture.
Is anyone else having this issue and how i do i remove it.
Thanks in advance
Sometimes the bar will change colour to what's on the screen, but before the update it wasn't there at all.
Hi, I only got that when I used the kwgt app to theme my phone. I still want to know why but anyway once uninstalled my phones back to normal.
