Hi all,
This is my first stab at creating a blue-ish theme. I've got round to removing all the green I believe but I didn't get a chance to change the grey highlights to blue as well hence releasing as a blue-grey theme.
Do feedback!
Update: 24/11/2009
After many failed attempts I've managed to sort the dialer out for incoming calls (see new screenshots).
Version History:
v0.60
- All green within manila changed to blue except stocks tab (I prefer it green there)
- IncomingCall.bmp fixed so that it works
To do:
- I had blue highlights for Dutty's task manager working, not sure why it's not on this release will update asap.
Download: KF_Blue_Grey_v0.60
I've got the cab ready but I'm having trouble uploading it, cab is 5Mb and zipped up is 2.6MB which is well within the attachment limits. Any suggestions guys?
Thanks!
try to upload it somewhere... it looks very nice... my question is: that icons on top bar are updated too, or is it only color in sense?
maybe you can split package into two...

The taskbar icons I installed separately, however, the phone canvas uses the same dll where the images are stored so for this release it'll be without the phone canvas.
I'll try split into two cabs!
please upload to 4shared or speedyshare
Great work, very nice I prefer the blue to the green. Look forward to the phone canvas to complete this. Many thanks my friend. Any ETA when this will be cabbed up.

Thanks! Just uploaded the original phone canvas in blue, cabbed and zipped!
Nice work, blue bits work just fine on my blackstone running Sh3lby 1.6 rom, manila 2.5.1921xx. Unfortunately the phone canvas doesn't work (get a corrupted image making the phone unusable). Just a warning for anyone else who wants to try it

Blue grey theme without phone canvas messes up phone graphics during calls. Had to hard reset to get rid of this. kinnyfaifai can you confirm?

Updated! v0.60 is uploaded!
@ weepatc:
Apologies for lack of response, been furiously trying to work it out. It should've just been a uninstall and soft reset to solve it.

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.

Ok ya'll, I searched my arse off and cant find any info:
I am using Dutty's v4 rom, and its excellent, but the gray is just so bland. How can I liven up my today screen with some color icons or a background picture?
Thanks for all the help too. This board is amazing. I wish I could do what you guys do.
what u want is htc home customizer
Search the kaiser sections for a keyword of "theme" this will provide tons upon tons of excellent images that people here have spent lots of time creating. If you want to customise the look of HTC home then, as previously mentioned, get hold of HTC Home Customiser pack and if you can find it also the additional appearance pack that contains extra icons etc.
Another key search phrase would also be "TSK"

Matching wallpapers for all the colours available in Gonzo's WM6.1 ROM!
Default (Green), Light Green, Blue, Red, Yellow, Magenta, Grey, Brown, Purple. Extract to HOME dir on phone.
Have fun!
EDIT: This is the final release! Colours tweaked, rounded corners added to all schemes, works in both screen modes. Colours are available from the Home Screen Layout menu. No need to change wallpaper and colour scheme anymore, everything is automated.
The theme shown here is Light Green. The rest of the preview screenshots follows a few posts below! "Slide Media" Home Screens added.
thanks
thats what i was looking for...
Me to, now the Red theme will look like the Guava theme from WM6.
Roland
you have made WM6.1 look like WM6 by putting the curved bar under the icon bar. Thanks for making my WM6.1 Vox looking even cooler than it already did.
Roland
Thank you!
FIRST POST UPDATED! The final release has been uploaded. Please delete the old one, as it will only waste space on your phone, when using the new rls.
The rest of the previews... As follows, Blue, Red, Grey, Purple, Magenta, Green, Brown, Yellow.
Danke! I've been looking for some themes for my SMT5800 and these seem killer.

Hello,
It's look great but I think I missed something.
Is there any plugin to run this screen? I copied all files (included in Colours.zip and Slide Media.zip) into Home Dir and it's doesn't work...
Any complementary information ?
Thanks
Hey thanks for your work, is relly good.
Just one comment, I'm using the blue theme and in the call status when taking or doing a call i get the default green background..

Well you obviously need WM61 on your phone, are you trying to use this on a WM6 ROM maybe?
When you extract the files to the Home DIR, there shoud be a bunch of xml-files named "Slide (Colour)" and a directory called Slide, that's it mate!

There is a way, but I can't for the life of me find the thread for it. They are just simple .cabs, I had looooads but I deleted them after installing Windows 6.5.x as I didn't need to use them. I'll keep searching and hopefully someone will link you to a thread in the meanwhile!

Hello Everyone!
Hi guys 'n' girls.
Thanks Kalavere for pointing me to this thread
Was getting a little frosty in my other thread..
I'm looking for a few things for 6.5...
1) A collection of start icon's (only the icon, no text). Also a separate remove text cab would be nice as I've seen a few others that would give a limb for one...
2) I've not yet seen any of these yet but I'm after a collection of animated load icons (you know, the win icon that spins)
3)A collection of stand alone volume skins. Have seen a couple of these but they always seem to incorporate something else (not that I'm picky lol)
I'm mainly looking for Dusk and Anastasia themed items but i would love to see what else is out there!
Thank you in advance for any help!
Any hints to threads would be greatly appreciated!
Ps. @ Kalavere, I love your profile pic! I'm big in to Gas masks my self, had to mention!

Thanks a lot. Tried but no help. The taskbar I use is from anastasia. However the Start icon change in itself is not possible.
Also the "Start" text written on the top cannot be removed. Is there a way for it really.
It will eb a very nice idea to make a collection of
Volume icons
SMS icons
Battery icons
Start icons
and customization of start text.
Anyone upto it?

You can definitely, definitely change just the icon alone. I just can't find the damned things!
*Edit* This is how to do it manually, there are some cabs floating about though...

I've found an answer to that, thanks to dafunk2.
TO ALL OF YOU THAT WANT ONLY THE CUSTOM WAIT CURSOR:
No guys, there is no way to make a cab for only the custom wait cursor.
This is because the custom wait cursor graphics are into the file shellres.192.dll. Into this file reside also many of the taskbar icons and other miscellaneous graphics. If I make a cab with only the file shellres.192.dll and you install it, you will have my wait cursor, but you will have many of my taskbar icons as well. It's good if you use my taskbar (but if you use my taskbar you already have my cursor ), but if you use another taskbar....you can easily understand what can happen.
So this is why there's no way to make a cab that installs only the cursor.
I'm thinking about to make some colors variations of the cursor, but I think that I will make them for cookers (and who knows how to edit dlls) and I will post the 32bit bitmaps in the Windows Mobile Themes section.
I'm sorry.....but I'm explaining why this is impossible
Anyway, many thanks for the great interest for my custom wait cursor

Hi Guys
Got tired of the boring B&W "New SMS" icon in Sense.
So made my own!!
There are 3 different ones as per the attached image.
Each zip contains the original .png for CFC_Gui users. A Manila file for those wanting to direct overwrite...(Back-up first!!)
There is also a cab for those with less skills or courage
Enjoy

Yeah, this is the email background.
