change windows buttons

Hi, sorry to post but i don't really know how to search for what I'm after
I just want to change the windows keys at the top of the bottom of the screen to solid black instead of the shiny grey gradient.
Can I directly change a graphics file? and if so where is it?
Thanks for your help

Is this not possible, I had a go with the Theme maker program, but then when I output to WM6 it retains the shiny black bars that I would really like to have in solid black

I think maybe you should search for a skinning program? or a skin that does what your thinking of.

Can you post a screenshot or picture to show exactly what you mean?
Or do you mean, bars like these?
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

yeah, how did you do that, there is no vertical gradient, i like that but i would prefer it all black
what skinning program will do that? does the program have to run in the background all the time or is it a one time operation to set the skin?

Hi:
After I installed a solid black theme, which I use, now the top and bottom bars appear solid in all themes with black bars. You could give it a shot. Not sure if it will work, but it will be easy to test. Just install the theme I attach here, then try another theme with black bars, and see if it works . For some reason it worked on mine.
Another way is to use a theme editor (I use Themegence), and use black bars for WM5, that too makes them solid black.
Anyway, I hope this works for you

Cheers for your help guys
I used UI Tweaker in the end, it did exactly what I wanted, then I used some other things I found on here to hide the top and bottom bars,now it looks perfect!!

Anyone have the battery meter with % in it?

I found this battery meter built in to the Viet ROM and can't find a stand-alone cab for it. Anyone know where I can find it and how to put it in my fave ROM?

Just noticed that the link I gave is not exactly the same, there is no "bar" on the right side of the battery meter (see pic below).
I installed it anyway on my Kaiser, looks and work great .

Thanks for the find, this one works ok. Have you noticed it changes the E for edge to 3G? Weird thing to build in...
Man I wish I spoke Vietnamese, lol

Actually I noticed something else! I noticed it installed in fact new layouts for the call history as well as for the PIN dialpad :O ! It looks nice but was unexpected.
THe icon change, I would have to look into it .

I had to uninstall this app, it changed way to many things other than just the battery meter. Still on the search for the one in the Viet ROM.
Anyone? Bueller?

using this one, works great

Why the hassle with %??
I love the multi colored TNT Top Battery level bar (post #4)

Maybe it's my device, but when I try to uninstall this, it freezes. I launch the uninstall process, I see the top bar disappearing as it's being removed, then freezes. After soft reset, the top bar is still.
EDIT: ok, after removing the BatteryLevel.exe from the startup folder, softreseting, then trying to uninstall, it worked because the .exe was not in use anymore

[Sug] Possible to remove time from top right of notification bar?

Hi guys,
I was going to post this in general, but as it is possible development I thought it may best be suited here. Sorry if it isn't!!
Anyway, I'm no developer so I don't know if this is even possible, hence why I thought I'd throw it out there.
What I was thinking is, as a user of the flip clock and also using Stericson lock screen, I have the time in full view of my home screen / lock screen all the time.
The fact it is in the top right corner is of no use to me really. It's also apparent that when you have several icons in the notification bar (especially when plugged in on USB) it gets crowded and tends to hide alot of them.
What is the feasibilty of removing / hiding the clock from the notification bar, and moving the 3g/wifi/bt/battery icons into the right hand corner?
Would this actually be possible? I know this wouldn't suit all users but some people may like this as it would give more space for other icons to appear there.
Any Devs care to elaborate on this?
Thanks.

If you wanted to hide the time, you could just make it transparent using Ohsaka's colorChange.jar. Of course, that wouldn't help with the crowded icons.
I like the time in the right corner, useful for when I'm browsing the web on a break from work.

Or try alternative home app: Home++
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Sadly this has been asked quite a few times, problem is they wont answer even though people want it.

I guess for now home++ is a good alternative - though I do like using advanced launcher, so removing it properly from the notification bar would be better.
I guess it's just one of them things - although an official yes or no it can't be done would be nice from a dev?!
Thanks.

which on are you using ?

SenseUI Slider on your Imagio !!!

I originally made this for by TP2 bretheren, but it should work on the Imagio as well (will know for sure on Monday, unless somebody wants to test for me before then).
Hit up the TP2 / TF3D section of my website (link in signature)

Im running the biohazard on my imagio and the color settings i love em. thanks

Cool... Glad you like em

Thanks i have been looking for something like this. Got the checkered flag and the better looking sense icons!!

exellent
on my imagio the tab icon appear to be slightly smaller than slider icons
used sense_for_tf3d cab

Works Great on Imagio
Good work!!!!

Can you provide a screenshot of this?

still getting a screen shot
only noticeable with clear tab not any of the colored or themed tabs
just when tab icon overlaps slider icon
still getting a screen shot

I had somebody else mention that on the Imagio as well..
Lemme play with one and see what I can find out
Just to be clear.. you are trying to to use the SenseUI for TF3D package that I made?

what is happening? I used this on my imagio and it worked like a charm check it out...

I was just thinking that if i get time i might clean the icons up to show up more crisp on our screens

Go for it...
and as far as the overlap.. I don't know what to say.
I tried this out on a stock Imagio here at work and could not duplicate the problem

If you are talking about the overlap in my pic dont worry about it. I took a screen shot while i was holding down the slider. That is not how it normally looks. And i tried editing but i used package creator to open the .cab and all i can edit is the RGU and the DSM. Ill keep trying

OH!
I thought that was the problem you were having with it...
Then what is the problem you first mentioned?

I didnt have a problem that was shaba10k. But i just wanted to clean up the edges a little of the icons. If you look at my screenshot they look like they still have some white around them. Or it just formatted the colors incorrectly when they were saved.

The slider icons worked great on my Imagio. I've seen screen shots of color icons for the Call History and Calendar items on the homescreen as well. Do you make a cab for this? Or does anyone know where I could find one?

The call history icons are around on the forums somewhere. I did not make them.

edit:

I like the dock. How do I set the center icon to be the phone application without putting another icon on top of it? I'm not sure if the issue I'm having is clear. Basically, when I assign the center button to be a shortcut to the phone, it makes me choose an icon for it. The icon I choose lays on top of the phone icon that you have in your image file. How can I fix this?

i provided an blank icon that you can pick

I downloaded the BlueDock.zip file. In it, I see 3 Images:
BlueDock.png
BlueDock_nobutton.png
screenshot_2.png
I don't see any blank icon. Am I missing something?
Also, May I suggest that instead of using a blank icon, can the colorful phone Icon be provided seperately and used on top of the noicon image? That way when you scroll through docks, the phone Icon will scroll with the other icons. Also, this would give the option of not having the phone be the center Icon on every dock.

just noticed the first zip had the wrong file in it! added now!

Where u get that wallpaper?

Nice docks, I'm using the blue one now!
