Change commanager skin - P3300, MDA Compact III General

Hello does someone know if it is possible to change the green Commanger?
I already changed the phonepad from green to the default Microsoft skin, but now the commanager is still GREEN......
Let me know if you know how to do it, or if it is possible to copie the commanager.exe from another device...
Grtz.
Marvie

Yes
tons of new types of comms in cab form for install.

What you CANNOT do:
1. Redistribute the skin, modified or not with my signature file(Readme.txt) removed.
2. Modify any part of the skin and redistrbuted under your name.
3. Take all or part of the images that dont belongs to the original Kaiser for your skin.
Tested working with 838Pro running original Dopod WM6. If your dialer has been change or your device do not use the standard HTC dialer,I dont have any idea it will work. Oh..and I will not attempt to make it work for other Hermes not running official WM6 from Dopod. You can try it by backup your phone registry first, if it work, GREAT!. If it dontsimply uninstall it and restore your registry. As always, use it at your own Risk!

dude.....feeling some competitions huh...I dont have your cab or mUn ROM so I cannot compare to yours and mUn. Now before you start saying something stupid why dont you show me if there is an EXACT same file from my images and those of yours and mun? I would be surprise if you can find ONE(ofcourse except those graphics that we can use from kaiser without any further tweaking)
If you are talking about resemblance...all the graphics are all ported from the original Kaiser it should look a like. The original Kaiser dialer DONT belongs to ANYBODY.
I would expect you to came back here with your prove OK? JUST ONE GRAPHIC. If not then that said it all.
p.s. I do notice you "promote" your dialer twice here today right after I release mine.

play nice guys bc both of u have good and bad parts in ur dailers. i have both and both have been extracted from cabs and compared. schen urs has a good layout on the video calling. duron is more with the original kaiser theme if u look at that smart dialing and blue gradient. get ur dialers and put them together and make one.

duron is just a bit paranoid about this whole thing thinking that photoshop works is his biggest talent that none can do....
BTW I did think about designing to look exacly the same as Kaiser but it did not work. The hermes dialer has different layout. The Video Progress button screen for example will overlap. We might think that the "right" part of the main dialer is "cool" being covered with " dummy grey button", but that part of the screen has its own purpose for Hermes(picture display and Long Names and Numbers also will extend to the far right). It is not supposed to be covered.
So duron, what are you going to say....! I dont need your dialer...there are many flaw if I may say it frankly.

How to get HTC's official WM6 but *without* the HTC green theme

Hi folks,
My device is off being repaired to cure the screen alignment issue but while I am waiting for it to return I was wondering if there was a way to stop the HTC green theme being applied to the device after I do a hard reset?
I would like just the plain WM6 default theme.
I have read about this thing called ExtROM, which is where the operator install files are hidden? So this is where the evil green theme lives until it gets installed?
Can anyone tell me if this is possible?
FYI I have a generic HTC, sim-unlocked TyTN.
Thanks,
gambcl
Um well you can do a search on google and find millions of PPC themes the green theme is just the default one set by the Preconfig.txt WM6 also comes installed with a blue theme and a red theme BTW they are called .tsk files
Umm, yes I know about .tsk files, but they do not get rid of the HTC green skin on the dialer, pin screen, etc. do they?
I was thinking the cleanest solution was to just stop the HTC green from ever being applied in the first place by maybe deleting the relevant install files from the ExtRom and then doing a hard reset.
Does anyone know if this is possible? I've never touched the ExtRom before, I know I have to unlock it and I can read about that, but what exactly would I do after I have unlocked it?
Thanks,
gambcl.

For the screen commmanager try disable this file in extended: Green_Commger.CAB.
For the dialer take a look at ZombieNexus dialpad. I use one 3G dialer to subst the green one in HTC.
For the pin pad, try one of the CABs in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321733 Youll have a black touch pinpad after install one of them, and of course the battery icon with detailed info
Hopes this helps.
This is exactly what I would like to know too. How to disable the green theme to load after hard reset.
I like the base blue theme, but that green theme changes the dialers etc.
Don't want other themes to replace them. Just to disable it not to load after hardreset.
I see that it loads a xml file that was named based on the theme, I just don't remember it atm. maybe I'll just have to fiddle with the extrom.
If anyone already has a working solution, please post it

Sorry, but the gree colors in pinpad is caused by a DLL in the ROM, not by some CAB installed after the HR. So you can only chage this changing this DLL.
About the DialPad, well, seemed as before, but with a lot of graphics files. You need a theme to change the green color and bottons (graphics files). Can't disable after HR. Only you can disable the default skin in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin making Enabled parameter to "0"
but you loos the 3G dial and SmartDialing. If you have 0 by default in this parameter, then you can't do more.
The only one i could disable is Green Commanager in the extended.
The other way to customize all this is, of course, cooking your own ROM
Regards.

HTC Comm Manager

Hi there
Running Meschles Vanilla 2.0 (EXCELLENT)- just wondering if anyone out there knows of a way to change the colours in the HTC Comm Manager? Not just the black background, but also the blue and the red colours. Would like to change it more to fit into the rest of my theme.
Incidentally- if I LOVE the colours in the original Microsoft Guava theme- how could I fine out the "colour codes" (for want of a better term) to then apply to a re-coloured comm manager.
Would like to make it eg black on (guava) red!
Thanks all......
Any ideas anyone......?
Please!!...

afaik does it only change htc-home-related things...to change comm-manager icons you'll have to edit every single file.
correct me if i'm wrong with that, but i can't imagine another way to do this.
maybe you can download a comm-manager-cab (this one ? - it's the ten-button comm-manager from kaiser), extract all files and then you can try do change the pictures...
btw: there are about 90 pictures included.....happy editing

Yea, I've downloaded a 10 button Comm manager (can't remember which one), but it was screwing up my system. Slowed everything down. It would take almost 20 seconds to open the the Windows folder. The only way I could get rid of it was to hard reset. So please backup your device some kind of way before you download it just incase. Even after uninstalling it, my device was still slow.
The same problem with other app

Seems to be impossible what you would like to do. Since CommManager is 'burnt' onto the ROM, you can
a, overwrite it with your new coloured files - causing slowdown, or
b, leave it as is.
There is no third possibility.
And yes, after uninstalling or manually deleting the files with which you overwrote the original ones, the system still remains slow! (don't know why).
I'm struggling with a similar problem for a while. My ROM doesn't have HTC AudioManager built-in, so I installed it separately into Storage Card, to avoid slowndown. Then I installed Music plug-in for starting AudioManager directly from Today screen. And, althought the plug-in is selectable (WMP/AudioMan.), I can't use it for AudioManager because it can't find the prog.
The only solution would be a new or hacked plug-in version, capable of locating AudioManager, even if it's not in Wondows folder. If anybody knows such a version, please, warn me!
cheers
Never mind...Nice thought.
Thanks anyway guys

The Guava theme is my favorite as well. It looks really good the the grey icons instead of the colored ones. The B&B Comm Mgr would be perfect for this ROM but the only way to get it is to cook your own ROM. I just avoid going to the Comm Manager so I don't have to look at it much. You can change the icons and tabs on the home screen with the HTC Home Customizer software.

Removing Horrible Green Hilight

Hi,
Can anyone advise of a cab or regedit which removes the nasty green hilight when you select things from the menu's and in touchflo?
I have searched this fourum and others for days and tried various cabs and regiedts but nothing seems to work for the Touch HD. I would like to make the Dialler and all selections red (looks nice on black) but cant find a way of doing it.
I know how to edit the .tsk theme to get the colour I want in the wm6 menu's but the dialler, large startmenu and touchflo remain green.
If anyone can help please post back.
Cheers
Yes, u can change ths settings with HD Tweaks 0.5.4
Ok, But I have HD tweak 0.5.3 and it appears that 0.5.4 is only availiable in french.
As it is in French can you please confirm which setting allows it to be changed? (In French)
Many Thanks.

hmm..
i think i have seen a thread about changing the highlight color in TF3D, search the forum
for the enlarged start menu, i don't have a clue how to change the highlight color for it
but for the dialer, i have found it somehow:
use regedit, go to:
[HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE]
highlightColor="0x5AA200"
highlightTextColor="0xFFFFFF"
well, pretty self-descriptive.
just change the hex code to the color you want.

[THEME- ref ] Default black + color pack for manila

This is my beloved black/green original HTC Manila theme and maybe a "reference" for others manila skinner.
Black default HTC theme for graphics & default green highlights for all colored components (checkbox, buttons and so on)
no screen needed as we all known default htc black theme
developed and tested with itje's latest build, currently T-mobile one from 6.1 2.604 kitchen. Feel free to try on other roms, it should work, but keep in mind that results may be different.
why 2 cab? to separate "static" graphic elements form indicators, selectors and so on. It's a huge work, done once for all (I hope ).
guap Manila Default Black.cab contains only "static" graphics (tabs, bars...)
guap Manila Green Hilights.cab contains only "skinnable" items (selectors, checkbox, buttons) to keep simple for others to change colors on their own without having to search all of them.
If you want i.e. to make a "red" theme, just edit files in Highlights.cab and you're ready
Or if you want to have black back on your t-mobile manila but keeping the blue/gray selectors and indicators, you can install only Default Black
How to install: disable manila, install cab (always to device if asked!!!), then re-enable manila. Soft reset shouldn't be required, but has to be the first option in case of weird behaviours
All cabs are unistallable and shold be an harmless process, but ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP with something like sprite backup or spb backup.
Other goodies
guap Green Fingermenu.cab for default green fingermenu
guap Green UsbToPC.cab for default green UsbToPC popup
guap Manila Green EnlargeStartMenu.cab for green EnlargeStartMenu
guap Manila Blue T-Mobile EnlargeStartMenu.cab for restore t-mobile colors on EnlageStartMenu (as this requires registry entries, isn't sufficient to uninstall the green one)
guap Manila Green Taskmanager.cab for green TaskManager (tnx to itje)
guap Manila Blue T-Mobile Taskmanager.cab for restore t-mobile colors on TaskManager (as this requires registry entries, isn't sufficient to uninstall the green one)
Default Indicators.zip once for all, some files MUST to stay green, i.e. the stock chart indicators: they are these files, if you get fuzzy stock indicators installing a custom theme, drop this in \windows and should be fix
Fix
guap Manila raindrop fix.cab t-mobile manila has ugly rains, probably messed up during blu-colorizing process: this will fix ugly raindrop on weather tab
Sorry about rapid, but this manila doesn't support cfc, these 2 are too big for the board:
guap Manila Default Black.cab -> http://rapidshare.com/files/216177011/guap_Manila_Default_Black.cab
guap Manila Green Hilights.cab -> http://rapidshare.com/files/216177012/guap_Manila_Default_Green_highlight.cab
...reserved...
Nice! Are different colors coming in the futue?

but those have to be done in the registry, which is a lot of work.

wich modification? This is related to manila only, manila isn't supposed to have a dialpad
can you post a screen?
@tomzibad: of course, open package with m9editor, extract clock png (they are clearly recognized ) and make your own color
Is there anyway to change to selection colour for the notification manager?
When I click it, it's still the same colour that I got rid of everywhere else. I still have a weird blue/grey/purple colour. And I would like the green in the notifications manager.
uhm maybe I missed it. Take a look in the latest kitchen, components are sort by directory, should be simple to find the misssed bmp for notification manager

thanks guap for your cabs, very useful.
I installed them to remove t-mob customizations in the rom i use. I wanted to rollback to default HTC classic scheme.
But after applying the cabs, the UI remains the same, strange to me, even the flip-clock (I don't like t-mob white-on-black clock). Your cab contains both square backgrounds, as well as digits, suppose the digits are white and the background is black in your cab file?
Pls advice, howto revert to black-on-white flip-clock?

Hi. I have problem with distorted graphics on the email tab (email account select). Any1 has experience with this problem? I am using green buttons, selectors etc. and Itjes 7+ final or Smabergs 6.2 ROMs
Dear knaplullig, guap
I noticed a problem, after installing Plain HD TF3D.cab,
my start menu stopped working (before when tapping on 'start', I had programs menu, not the classic start menu).
Which .manila file is to blame?
Dear All,
anyone, who uses this Plain TF3D tweak, do your start menu work ok?
Mine (I had programms when tapping 'start' -- before installing Plain TF3D cab) just stopped responding to taps. Winkey on Hw keyboard works (old-style start menu).
Anybody has suggestion, what has to be corrected in order to have responding startmenu back again?
FOUND!
I've found the file which froze startmenu.
It's 5c9aa261_manila. Can it be fixed somehow?

Did you find a way to fix this? I tried installing it and had the same problem. It won't remove either so I may have to reflash
not to reflash you just have to re-instal and then remove the program.
also you can try this threads solutions.
