Post your customized device!

I thought it would be interesting to see what people have done with their devices, now that we can do at least a little bit of customization within WP7. I've seen some pretty smooth looking phones in YouTube videos and around the internet. I'm sure no two customized phones are the same.
Whether it be registry changes, accent customization, theme changes, or whatever, let's see what you've done!
I have mine below, I switch between the grayer shade of blue and the darker red. I can't decide which I like more.

Here you go;

is there a way to add colors to the background where "dark" and "light" are just like one the other color accents we can do right now? instead of going in and changing the default ones alone?
would like to know, thanks

Changing the background color is easy. You just need a registry editor such as this and edit the registry key:
[HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\*\pageBackGroundColor]
* - 1 is dark theme, 0 is light theme
Enter a hex number after #FF, such as #FF40546e for a steel blue.
You may also want to edit these keys:
[HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\*\Basethemecolor]
[HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\*\TextHighContrast]
[HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\*\TextBackGround]
[HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\*\pageBackGroundColor]
[HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\*\SysTrayBackGroundColor]
[HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\*\TextNeutralColor]
[HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\*\ContrastColor]
Playing around with these should teach you what each changes. To see your changes, switch themes from dark to light and then back or vice versa.

No you can not add new theme ....Just be aware that messing with registry in that level is danger ..Make a backup first

How did you change the page switcher to the Windows logo? Also nice icon switch. EDIT: Is that a different battery icon as well?
BTW, my phone was featured on 1800pocketpc along with part of my tutorial on how to change your phones background color: http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2011/06...-background-theme-color-on-windows-phone.html
Just thought it was pretty cool

[Q] Need help finding this image

Hello all in need of some help. I am currently on the awesomness we call DomPop:good:and have removed the volume safe warning dialouge the prompts when raising the volume to high when using headphones, what I would like to do is take the image from the system volume(volume slider that pops up when using no headphones) or any other volume slider that does not have the RED color in it and just use one of those images and rename to the image with the Red color in it but for the life of me I can not fing this said image, is it a .png or a qmg even if some one could nudge me with the name I can hunt it down from there but I am stumped. I have looked in the framework-res,SystemUI, and even the TouchWiz launcher and can not find this darn thing so any help or guidance will be much appreciated.:highfive:
I have attached images of the one I want to change with red and replace with the one with all blue
Thanks

If I recall correctly, it's in framework, and the color is just a tint in xml...

Screen Burn - - - HP Elite X3

Who else has noticed the screen burn in on the bottom bar location? I can notice the Windows icon in the center even once hidden. It is still faint. If the screen is the right color I can see the other icons also.
I absolutely hate this phone because of the OS. Windows 10 Mobile is too buggy for me. I cannot open my camera app half the time, the music app crashes, the browser resets occasionally, finger print scanner works half the time, sometimes the power button does not respond or the notification panel does not pull down.
The biggest concern for me is the phone powering off randomly. I've missed appointments and important things because my alarm doesn't go off, or my call doesn't come through. Why? Cause the phone shut itself off. Oh and the horrible heat this thing makes when browsing the web. Then it slows down until you have to manually shut it off and let it cool down.
Biggest POS I've owned. Now had they went with Android, it would be the best phone ever. The specs are amazing, the OS is total ****.
\rant

It seems you have a falty unit of this phone, contact HP support.

Howdy! I agree, sounds like a faulty phone or bad OS. I'm also using Elite x3 running Anniversary and pretty stable, not seeing the same behavior. Have you tried a phone reset and upgrade to 1607?
One thing, I also have screen burn-in after only a couple of months. Using the defaults for screensaver and sleep, so this isn't really acceptable. Also, the "durable" Gorilla Glass can and does scratch... I'm checking with support to see what options or if this is covered.

It's a bit strange, i have Lumia 930, 950,950xl and no one have burn-ins. I was wondering to buy an X3, but this topic, makes me change my opinion

It can happen...Had a lumia 950 that did that. So just as a fail safe I started enabling this reg key on my amoled w10m phones and it does not hurt anything to do it:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\NavigationBar\IsBurninProtectionEnabled dword:1

On the dark theme the nav bar after about 45s to 60s changes contrast so that it is not totally black and so that the nav bar back home and search are not totally white. Then if you touch the nav bar again it goes back to normal. I can try to take a screen shot of it if you'd like?

Ok that would be nice.
Did you use interop tools to open access to registry option?

Yes interop tools method was used.
For some reason it is rendered funny after attaching. You might be able to download it and look at it on your phone to see the actual affect created.

Someone has also shared a link to another forum that helps explain more keys that could be of use for this scenario. I will paste the information from that site below...
Go to the path in the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Shell \ NavigationBar and there add the necessary records and values ​​(all entries are of type DWORD)
What we add:
1. IsBurnInProtectionEnabled
2. BurnInProtectionIdleTimerTimeout
3. BurnInProtectionMaskSwitchingInterval
4. BurnInProtectionIconsOpacity
5. BurnInProtectionBlackReplacementColor
The values ​​of which are set accordingly
1. 1 on 2 off
2. Time before in seconds from 1 to ... (I put 1)
3. Time before in seconds from 1 to ... (I put 1)
4. The magnitude of the eclipse as a percentage of 0 (the whole panel will be black) to 100 (the buttons are brightly white) - I recommend 20
5. Replacement of black accent in percentage from 0 (remains black) to 100 (becomes color) - I recommend 0
This was all taken from a site shared to me here

Better to make a reg file to import with interoptool.

@augustinionut
i think its already in wptweaker

Good point :good:
But wptweaker only modify this value: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Naviga tionBar\IsBurninProtectionEnabled dword:1
All other values are missing.

You can easily add missing values - WPTweaker especially designed for that purpose

By modifying tveaks.xml, i know, but i"m too lazy.

Ta daaaaa

Had it on the first x3 i got 4 years ago hp replaced it the 2nd one was used for 4 years still fine no burn in

[THEME] Extreme Power Saver Leaf and Exit Button Colour

Extreme Power Saver Leaf and Exit Button Colour MOD
I couldn't stand the fact that there was so little colour on the Extreme Power Saver screen....
And I couldn't stand the fact that the only real colour was that nasty little red exit button,
looming there like you did something wrong....
So I've changed the colours!!!!
This makes that screen more welcoming...
If there's a DEV out there that would like to create a EPS themer then please do,
I would love the whole of the EPS screen themeable.
But as such my skills only go so far....
If there's a specific colour anyone want's then send me a jpeg.
There are 15 Colours (including the original)
If you do want to change the apps that show or move them around then you can use the excellent Xtended Settings from Google Play.
UPDATE
Having spoken to Richmondo he has now included a Leaf colour changer in his already excellent
Xtended settings. It only changes the leaf colour though but you can chose any colour in the
spectrum. You also need Xposed installed (but you already knew that) With my Mod you don't!
Installation instructions included in the .zip
But just so you know..
You just have to replace the HtcEPSLauncher.apk
Use ES File Explorer with Root access.
Navigate to /device/system/priv-app/HtcEPSLauncher
and replace the apk inside.
Delete the colour name i.e re-name it to "HtcEPSLauncher"
without the quotation marks and you are good to go...
I originally did this for the M8 and found out it works on the M7 and the M9.
If you have any problems either reboot or just replace the original. And yep you can always PM me.
Enjoy

[APP] Arc Lighting - Custom Navigationbar for Galaxy Note 10 (hide chin)

(note to galaxy note 10 users set samsung navigatiomode to gesturemode then go into arc lighting and move the buttons up vertically as they are outside of view using gesture mode will make the bar much thinner than normal, force navbar color to black then change the buttons to a line and push them to the edge, this will hide the chin by causing an illusion of the button being closer to the edge than it actually is, the upside to this is that you both get gesturebased navigation and tapbased, by forcing button size it's also relatively easy to hit the buttons)
Download (xda members get free access, will provide unlock codes to any xda member who asks)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.symetium.arclightingnavigationbar
Full Description:
Arc Lighting Navigation Bar is the most advanced custom navigationbar on the market, you can do everything from setting a custom icon per button coloring it after your current wallpaper or app you use or move the buttons up and down both inside and outside of layers, you can apply a colored layer behind each button individually and you can curve each corner of that layer individually you can also set an outline around each layer invidually and you can curve each corner individually aswell this outline can ofcourse change color after your wallpaper or app you're using and you can ofcourse adjust transparency and color lightness as with all other layers, you can force a custom tapspace for each button individually if you feel it's too small for your finger just increase the space and it will be much easier to tap the button, you can set the each individual layer such as the navigationbar or preset icon to change color after the app you're using or after the wallpaper you have both on the homescreen and inside an app, if you prefer to have the wallpaper color even inside the app you're using you can do that too you can also adjust transparency and color lightness if you prefer a darker or lighter color, you can apply an outline to each colored layer individually you can also curve each corner of this outline individually as well as the layer itself, arc lighting custom navigationbar also features modes that you can create and delete as you wish, you can set a custom configuration for how the bar should look and behave inside an app you can set a custom configuration for how the bar should look and behave inside an app in landscape and in portrait, you can do the same on the homescreen both in landscape and in portrait, arc lighting navigationbar comes with various presets such as pc mode which is designed for mouse and keyboard use and a higher dpi setting simply edit only landscape with this mode and have a pc ui, only enable when in landscape, arc lighting navigationbar also features a lighting system that let's you make each button glow individually you can also adjust the glow or turn it off all together, you can have the home button and or back button and or recent apps button pulse when charging, you can use each button individually as a battery indicator and make them change color depending on your charge, you get all this and much more in the most advanced navigationbar app on the market, arc lighting navbarigationbar also comes with various system modes, if you want the best experience choose advanced mode or rootmode, download the simple to use enabler software to give your device the neccessary permissions for advanced mode so you don't have to mess with adb, if you don't want to do this simply choose simple mode this is slightly more limited than advanced more as it will run ontop of your current navigationbar and it doesn't support transparency.
Features:
- Advanced color system with multiple layers of colors that can be enabled or disabled with adjustable transparency or color lightness and or change depending on wallpaper or app.
- Tap Space customization to adjust how big or small you want the Tap Space to be (smaller is better for a mouse and bigger is better for a finger)
- Movement system for each icon to move icons up and down or side to side both inside a layer or with the layer
- Full support for icon packs per icon and preset white or wallpaper/app colored icons with support for glow and lighting indicators
- Lighting system for each individual icon for notifications and various indicators
- PC mode preset for mouse and keyboard use (try to create Windows XP)
- Modes system that lets you set how the bar behaves in landscape and or portrait in-app and or the home screen by default you edit all so uncheck edit all variants to edit individually

i wanted to update everyone on what happened, the app simply died because the developer i worked with simply vanished, i wanted to post this as many of you have noticed i haven't sent out free codes as i should to xda members, my app arc lighting which i put years of my life in including money died, the person i worked with just disappeared, i am not accusing him he said he had corona so i am trying not to think anything i tried to be considerate but i asked whats been happening, i paid money last year to make changes to the app changes which haven't been made and it ended up just dying because it's broken
the last few days i received strange emails from someone claiming they have the sourcecode for something and wanting to sell it to me but they never said for what so i asked what this was about they refused and eventually when i said i'm not interested i received this

-------------------------------------------------------
i've had contacts with admins on this website who promoted my app, and some people have helped me in the past i wonder if anyone can help me as i am clueless on what to do, the developer i did work with simply is missing, and i don't believe he would do anything to me, i know two people who have the sourcecode, and i do trust them so i don't really know whats happening, i also have no idea why anyone would even want the sourcecode, the functionality is 5% of competing apps that does exactly the same thing, what people seem to like is my ui design and that can easily be copied.
