I have been looking all over the internet but can't seem to find any way to change the opacity/transparency of the start menu bar and soft key bars for my ATT Tilt with the HTC shipped rom installed. Is this even possible? I'm sure it can't be too hard? Someone please help if you know any way to change this feature.
this would be nice! perhaps someone can help
Have you tried this? Cant remember if it lets you change the opacity but it lets you do some funky things with the bars.
thank you very much for the replys but that didnt seem to work...anyone else know anything?

Friends,
How do I remove the calendar and contacts at the bottom of the screen and have icons like battery, wifi, bt, phone, etc?
please advise
tvos
You can use a program called SoftkeyChanger: http://www.cinetsystems.com/xda/Kaiser Cab Collections/Softkey Changer.CAB
Or it can also be done by editing the registry.
do you know how to edit the registry to accomplish this?
also, how do I place the icons in the bottom task bar?
thank you,
tvos
anyone can help me..

pls advise!

I'm going to sound like a shill for Wisbar Advance (because I just answered another question with a solution that it provides) but it also has a feature that allows you to set the softkeys to pretty much whatever you want (or get rid of them altogether).

Did you get to read Sane to reply to you? You can download softkey changer and it will map those 2 keys to other applications / settings as you wish to.
yes, it worked fine for changing the softkeys....
thank you for the info. on wisebar.

tvos:
Did the above advice help you to achieve your aim? From what I understood, you wanted to remove the soft key links and try and place battery/ wifi indicators etc there instead?
The above programs will let you change which program the soft keys will link to, but will not let you place status indicators on the bottom bar, which I think is what you were trying to ask for.
Did you manage to work it out? Would be quite interested..
I was able to change the softkeys with the program suggusted "SoftkeyChanger" - that worked fine.
I haven't mess with wisebar yet to test and I don't think that is what I need.
I would just like to have the icons appear at the bottom bar of the "task bar" w/o the two worded short-cuts "contacts and communication".
I am using pocket toolman right now, but the icons are on the today screen.
Any easier way that you can sugguest?

Afraid not - I was hoping you'd had some luck. TBH, hadn't thought of that until I read your post, but I'm always keen to tweak the layout of the phone - slowly inching toward perfection (though hopefully I'll never get there - tweaking is so much fun!!)
I can't adjust the volume with the scroll wheel during a call. I am sure it worked in the past. Any help? Thanks.
Do you can adjust system volume by the scroll? Please let me know beacuse i can't make anything by the scroll...
you probly have the large title bar thingy installed, that seems to mess up the volume control. Simple solution is to remove it. I was never a big fan anyway. I am sure someone must have worked out a solution by now. I cant be arsed to go looking for it though as i dont use it.
Hope this helps.

Thanks Rob,
I removed the large title bar and now the scroller works.
Why get out a Large title bar. My tytn2 is a orange poland.
Is there any way to change the title bar into a small thin one like the iphone (or the one that appears when you have your phone on keylock with the s2u2 software?
I don't want to use the iFonz program b/c I don't want the iPhone interface so no flaming. I just want the pure black THIN title bar.
I figured the title bar is almost useless and just takes up useless space.
I use UltraLaunch to access everything including task manager and always the soft button to access start menu.
anybody have an idea? I guess it's not popular enough. I searched everywhere and can't find anything close.

YES I REALLY WANT THIS TOO !
yes one person wants it! anybody else? maybe there can be enough people who want it to prompt developers. I am sure it can easily be created to work just like the "dcinobar" cab. Just don't ask me to do it cause I don't know much.
Maybe a way to alter one of the registry settings via resco? ::shrugs::
i'd be somewhat interested as well...added screen real estate is always a plus
looks like theres not much interest. I tried installing rinko's iconbar which is the closest to getting rid of the title bar by making it transparent; someone said it would work wit our phones, but after doing everything that rinko said to do, it didn't come out. Maybe you guys can try it and have better luck
You could try WisBar Desktop.... idk if this helps or not

I second using Wisbar.
Check the different versions to see if one of them fits your needs.
Then look in the forums at the "VOID" skin.
Is there a way to keep the back and home buttons illuminated?
I've noticed sometimes in the dark they are lit up, but not always.
It would be nice not to have to grope around to find them.
HTC One AT&T stock.
I have been searching for a way to get this as well and have had no luck. I did come across an app with controls for changing the brightness of the back and home button lights so I figure it should be too hard for someone to make.
If anyone would like to do so, it would be greatly appreciated.
I've actually been asking around for this as well! I assume it would be a simple build.prop modification, but i'm no good in the build.prop and would probably mess somthing up if i tried it on my own. Would need someone to tell me what exactly to change.
I'm sure someone could write a quick script or an easy app. Just need to find someone willing, lol.
Try adding
ro.mot.buttonlight.timeout=0
in build.prop. Remember backup!
hello, im trying to find a module that can hide the notification bar and soft buttons with a little swipe up.
having used the same thing on a windows phone i realised its actually exceedingly handy to be able to hide them at willand return at will too. i presume the must be a module somewhere that can do this but for the life of me i cannot find one. so can anyone help and point soemthing out to me that would do the job? i would greatly appreciate it.
