Hi All,
just got my hands on my new Touch Pro from Vodafone UK.
Is there a way to change the color of the clock and the home screen menubar color?
These are now nice and vodafone red and i would like them in black.
device info:
ROM version: 1.90.161.5 WWE
ROM date: 09/03/08
Radio version: 1.02.25.19
Protocol version: 52.33.25.17U
Now I have to say that I'm a complete NoNo on all this stuff - seen people putting the above info in so thought it might help.
If anybody can help me with this, please do so in absolute laymans terms.
Thanks for helping a novice out

got a voda model myself today,
I falshed the Rom with a modded one and its all black now.
much better.
What did you do to flash your Rom and did you have to re-set any Vodafone connection settings after?
(I got a Touch Pro on Vodafone yesterday)
Great to know that it's possible - could you explain the how, where and what, please.( where to get the ROM, how to flash it, etc, etc, etc)
I wouldn't even know what a " modded one " is mean, where to get it, etc, etc,etc.
help me out please
thanks,
D
I have a Vodafone Touch Pro but have not flashed it yet because of the warranty issues, I have however installed a black theme that someone kindly uploaded.
For the life of me I cannot find the original link but the theme was:
HTC Blueish Black TP Full CasMO.theme
IT can be applied with the Diamond TF3D Config tool:

Whoever created this, it looks great and will not invalidate any warranty later of if you need to send it back to Vodafone.
Cheers,

Many Thanks D. I was thinking of doing this rather than flashing.
2 Questions tho.
On your theme you have used does the internet Tab have the large globe picture when you open the Internet tab?
Also do you have black Text on certain screens?
On the Weather settings pace and on the 5 day weather screen I have Black text on the black background which is a bugger.
Many thanks!
Louington
Hi Louington,
No, I can't say that I have black text on a black background anywhere on this theme and I think it matches the phone much better than the stock Vodafone theme. I must say that this is was someone else's work that I found but still can't find the original thread, sorry. Credit to that person because it's fab work.
I've posted some screen shots, what I like about this is that you can always return to the default theme if needed.
Cheers,
D.
Hi - just turned my screen black - far better, thanks all.
1 thing - on your screenshots the Windows bar - top and bottum of screen are black. That didn't happen with me. have now via the themes in settings selected " Vodafone business" which is grey. How do I get this black as well?
thanks again.
D
Thanks for the update D.
I tried the theme you suggested and couldn't really get on with it.
(Didn't like the black clock or the blue highlighting)
The theme that I tried first was the HTC Black theme, I'll post some questions in the main theme's topic to see if i can find an answer.
Also what program did you use to take the screenshots?
Hi Louington,
No problem, I like the black clock, it's also nice in the car mount at night, doesn't distract you like the Voda white theme.
The screen shot are taken with My Mobiler (freeware)

Hi Dieb,
Sorry, not sure how to change the colour of the top and bottom buttons, I'm sure someone else should be able to assist.
Cheers,
D.

just for reference heres a link to the origanl rom:

Hi bros,
I installed and used the allblack thme, but still topand down are greyish. When I open the theme wih tkcreator, everthing looks black. How can you make it all black? (see pic)
I read about a carbon fiber skin (theme) for phonealarm, but I can't find it. Can anyone post it plse?
Try this. an improved version, should give you a black one.
You can get the better versionn of the carbonfiber skin from phonealarm website

Thanks guys
My lookalike screen, but better
Guys, thank you again for the information. I think that I stick with this screen. It looks good and is better than iphone screens, since our hima has so much more to offer.
So in the end how did you get your theme black?
registry tweaks
i have a mda compact 2 not sure if its a charmer or magician..can you tell me how do i remove the battery icon from the bottom taskbar to the top task..
thanks again for the reply it helped..

Charmer. Go Wiki and find t-mobile official site. Flash the new AKU ROM (Eg the update available to download) will do the job.

I would like to know as well...I tried installing the attached theme and still got the gray bars. Tried ThemeGen and UITweaker also, same story. Maybe my Wizard doesn't like black?
Have a read around the VJBaseHue threads. ZeBoxx posted some of the registry settings for an all black theme I think, and some of the users posted great links to ready made ones.

Just did a quick read through of your BaseHue forum and downloaded the CAB...installing it now although I think it may be the answer...
Unfortunately BaseHue wasn't the answer for my Wizard (but a nice app nonetheless)...
I did find a theme that got rid of my persistent gray bars and gave me the black that I was after.
Black Theme Here
It actually downloads as a pack of 4 themes for WM5 machines...the carbon black extra, or whatever it is was the one I used to great effect on my PPC.
Sorry, I hoped I was clear. BaseHue alone won't help you, but the research done by ZeBoxx and others and discussed in that thread, and the themes posted in that thread and others utitiled the flat soft keys needed for an all black theme IIRC.

Somewhere in My Documents on your device. I think it must be in the Themes folder.

In the "My Documents" folder in your device, not your storage card. That's it
hello all, first new topic so go easy on me. anyway, i read through a lot of ppl not being able to figure out the transparency slider, but that is not my issue. my issue is i cannot change the today background image period. i can select it, but the today screen never changes. i know it worked the day i bought it, but it does not work now. the only things i have done to it so far was to unlock it and change from the sprint clock to the flip clock. would either of those mess up my ability to change the background image?
It depends if you're doing the today background or the touch flow 3D background. If you have TF3D running it covers the traditional background that is changed in Start->Settings->Today. Instead scroll to the settings tab in TF3D and look for the wallpaper setting there.
I think there is a CAB floating around here that will push the TF3D wallpaper to all tabs.
wow, thank you. i feel like an idiot now that i could not figure that out. i will have to find that cab you speak of b/c this pic looks amazing when used with the sprint theme.
Oh sweet theres a cab that changes all the background? Where can I find that? PS my device is stock non flashed ROM since its corporate.
i am still looking. i found one for the diamond that ppl are trying but it seems to only work on certain roms. i will keep searching as i only like to apply mods that are proven to work.
Go to this thread - there is a link to the CAB file on it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=451276&highlight=background
The link is in post #3 if I'm not mistaken.
slyng1 found the cab that I used. I have NATF's 1.1 ROM (basically the ATT ROM minus the bloatware) and the Black Touch Pro theme installed through Diamond TF3D Config and the cab works great.
Hi.
I have tried some themes i found here but i have a problem;
when i used a theme named "wabbit" i got the rabbit-background in all menus,
like home,mail,settings etc...
BUT when i use others like ohyeahar`s theme or other themes i only get to choose background for the frontpage Home..
When i scroll to mail,weather,settings etc,i get the default black screen.
WHY?
It don`t look nice when i scroll from colorful background in HOME to a black screen on settings.
I also noticed the thumbnails on ohyeahar`s theme is different than mine,cause he has the transparent look in the hole menu.
I have tried go to settings-background,but for some reason only the front page is changing..
This also is for the default theme that came with the phone,if i want to use a yellow flower-background,the front is flower but when i use the slider to the rest,it the default blackscreen...
Help!
Hi,
did you try this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=479112
No,never heard of it going to try it now.
Stupid question maybe,but the 2.1 verson is the newest?
Noticed that the 1.0 verson have more downloads.
I`m gonna try the stocklike.
THANKS
I have bg4allTabs_stocklike_2.1 and I get the same background when moving through manilla, I think it's what you're looking for
Did`nt work on my diamond2.
The screen got cut in half.
What ROM do you have? it says "For stock rom with manila 1.3.x u could use mun_background4allpages.cab only".
i have rom-verson 1.39.409.2
Edit: never mind.it worked with the 1.0 verson Thanks
Maybe you could use the search function ? The question you have has been answered quite a lot of times .. The last topic on this page also has a good solution for you ..

Hello!
It's very difficult to read the Today Screen on the Topaz in bright sunlight. I have searched and searched again for a solution on XDA-Developers and the internet as such, but I found nothing. Actually, there's very little discussion about this problem. I find that a bit strange since this isn't only a cosmetic thing; the issue actually has consequences for the practical use of the device.
So, I ask you guys if anyone is working on this problem? Or perhaps I'm the only one who regards the white font as a problem? There must be some way to get black font on the Today Screen? Perhaps there already is a solution out there that I haven't found?
I hope someone knows the solution to my problem!
Kind regards
Eiliv
P.S. I have tried Max TF3D Theme Maker, but that doesn't seem to work.
You can change today text color in SKTools (download free trial). It is in Tune Up - Colors.
But if you mean manila - I don't use it so I don't know how to change it
Yes, sorry, I mean the Today Screen / Home Screen in Manila...
Eiliv
I agree. It would be great to change at least the colours !
You must take the TF3d manila Files oft the Vodafone D2! White Screen with black letters...
Well, great! But how? Where? I've done a search for Vodafone D2, and the only relevant post I can find points to ppc.ch which seems to be a german site (greek to me)...
Can you please point me in the right direction?
Eil
this is the first bit of what ive found: http://www.smartphonejunkie.com/tutorial-how-change-t174799.html?t=174799

Blackstone theme seem to work (not tried yet), but check this one out:

Nice Theme, but to install this one, I need TF3d Config...btw. this program isn't working on the D2...
What can we do?
I'm on Telstra's piece of **** branded HD2, which among other things they've created a blue theme for.
I've tried Co0kie's stuff but it doesn't customise the colour of the slider down the bottom (don't know if that's the right word - you know, the thing to slide between home, music, calendar, etc. buttons).
I know you can change what buttons are visible on the slider, but how about the colour?
The blueness is also present in the music and calendar apps and kind of generally right through settings buttons etc.
Is there any way of getting the regular black HD2 theme on it, without having to flash a stock ROM? I'm kinda scared about losing contacts or bricking the phone by flashing it.
