whats is a color code for pure black bars in winmo 6.1? Im using very dark grey color shame but i know there is posibility to have pure black (glossy) ones.. (for example Glossy Black Bars from this forum, but when i sync via Activ sync, or do something that reloads UI (HTC Home) it goes back to standard light grey shame.) When im use, dowloaded also from this forum, black (very dark grey) sheme its ok, but still i want to have pure black ones . So anyone knows what to put into xml to have pure, glossy black bars? .
(im using HTC s740)
It is not a color scheme, it is controlled by the BaseHue, its a registry entry, however it will never stick if u change the homescreen or anything with the display settings, the registry key is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Color
u need to change the REG_DWORD called BaseHue to 161 (it will probably change to 123, which is grey, whenver u change anything that have to do with display).
To make it simple for u, i made a cab with this registry entry, u can keep that file in a folder in ur phone and whenver u do something with display like changing the homescreen u can just run it and ull get the black glossy bar. The change is instantaneous.

I read on another post to get the glossy black theme, by changing this string.
Code:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color\BaseHue=dword:0 default b0d57b in the MB rom.
my problem is that only change the top and bottom bar to black.. I also want to know if anyone knows the string to change the side bars and start drop menu to black or clear cause I use pocketbreeze and ilancher. thank you for input.
even if you change it through the registry, its gonna go back if you change the wallpaper or anything. Right now im working on a permanent black theme but havent been able to have any success.
I think it has something to do with the shell32.exe that I cannot modify with reshacker or Resource editor.
Anyone got any ideas?
Searching for black.
yeah after I use the registry string, the top and bottom bars of wm6 works as black and glossy but the side bars...and inbetween lines when you have other programs installed such as pocketbreeze and ilauncher the lines are still blue from the theme that comes with MB rom is there anyone to have them clear so it looks more tidy? or trying to get rid of that colour to black. As for pocket breeze if anyone wants to remove the lines in the tabs...you have to edit the skin.ini file.
Try This?

This theme, cyclic_blackbars.tsk has very black, shiny bars.
I don't know how it does it, because when I look at the menubar color setting in SKTools it says 137, but if you have any other theme up and you plug in 137 in the menubar color setting, you don't get this shiny black.
Maybe you can take the theme apart and figure more out from it.

I have not been able to duplicate shiny black with BaseHueExpress, nor have I been able to create a turquoise with it that really matches the Crossbow theme color.

I think this theme may have come from one of Molski's packages, so it may be in that Molski theme pack, but just the one I like, that has the shiny black bars, cool black-to-white shading on menu dropdowns and on popups, and a cool black,blue and gray wallpaper is below:
just make your basehue value to anything between 160 and 175 and u'll have shiny black bars, change wallpapers all you want after that, it'll remain shiny black. The problem is most theme generators dont let u assign values higher that 80 in greyscale for basehue...
There are a bunch of themes that have black start menus, black scroll bars though i havent seen yet, ill try that when i get home and see how it looks. If it looks ok ill post the theme but, again to get the top and bottom bars black ull have to change the basehue in the registry as the program i use to make themes wont let me assign a value higher than 80 for greyscale basehue.

I used basehue and than just took a picture with my lens covered and use it as background. Looks good, I'm sure there is a more high tech way to do it but this seemed to work fine.
thanks for share

hi i am newbie to the forum and i need help

so i am looling for a theme that turns all backround to black color and any text in white

For themes u can download any themes online, and use them. test em and see which gives u the best background - font colour combination
for font size go to
Start > settings > system > Screen > Text Size tab
thx for your answer but i am looking for a theme
with larger text than the largerst supports my
device because i have vision problems as i said
and i couldnt find any theme looks like win xp
theme black on white [large]
Today themes usually only set the colour/picture of the background and the colour of the font.
So, you need to search for a windows mobile 6 all black theme. These usually have the font in white.
The size of the font used is usually set differently. In S-K Tools there is a section called Tune Up, where there is a sub section called font, and it seems that you can adjust the size of your font for various things like menu etc. I haven't tried this myself, but if I were you I would do a full backup first, using spb or sprite backup, just in case!
Good luck.
Hallo, I have a question. Under the titlebar and above the bar with the calendar and the contacts in wm6 is a small gray line. Is there any way to remove it or to change the color?

Welcome to the forum
I used to have a bar similar to yours but in the upper part of the screen, and later I understood that was a very nice and dicreet battery meter, I´m not sure if in your case could be the same. If not try to reflas the ROM if it´s very anoying for you, otherwise I don´t think it´s a big problem...
I invite you to READ the Wiki.
Hope it helps and good luck,
lol.. that's amazing. i have been plowing my polaris for almost a year now and not once did i notice this bar. you must have very sharp eyes.
I don't remember seeing an option to change this bar in any of the color customizing applications i've stumbled into. you can use a different shell tho.. if you want to get rid of it.. like Wisbar Desktop Advance..
i might be wrong (it happens to us all haha) but this can be changed with UI tweaker (edit)? or do as Nir says and just change the theme
I already tested UI Tweaker, but there is no option to change this line. I thought this lines are the plugin seperators, but that was wrong.
Whit Wisbar Advanced this lines are black. That all I want, but with wisbar there are to many other changes I don´t like.
unfortunately i have no idea how you can change that.. as i tried UI Tweaker myself to see if it's possible and didn't manage.
RC Mod doesn't work either..
mmmm, if the lines really do your head in, change the colour of the top bar itself personally i use black (hence no lines) but i had to change the theme first.
I'm using the classicblack theme and i still have that bar.
my screen shot. I dont have the lines?
im running wm6.1 on my htc touch vogue with a black/blue theme and was wondering if there is a way to make the text messages pages background black or w/e color you want.
of course you would also have to change the color of the text in order to read it, from black to white or something like that. anyone know if there is any way to edit this?
i cant stand the original white background.. so ugly!!!
thx
Try RC_Mod maybe..
Can I customize colors in Messaging, etc.? For example when I want to have WHITE text on BLACK (grey) background??? Or different font? I saw that theme (messaging - white on black) on new Samsung S8000 (i think).
Thank you
i STILL can not find any info...
I think you cant
i think you cant but you must to see on tha cpr files! it could be change in some other apps
Oh, it was not S8000, but Omnia Pro B7610.. sorry
Image is in attachment (from Areamobile.de)
I really like environment like in B7610 (black backgr. and white (grey) text), how I can do that on my Kaiser???
mm i think you can using the cab below. Word of warning though, be careful how much you change at once, i once ended up with a black tool bar and black text making it impossible to select correct soft buttons to get back to normality!!! Soft reset is required after each change which is a ball ache but i would suggest doing one tweek at a time
Hopefully it will do what you want it to
edit : you cannot select which screen to alter ie messaging, if you change the colour of the background screen to black as your pic, it will apply this to all background screens......... just a word of warning
