Wanted my SMS/Email alert icon red instead of the OEM yellow. Included the manila file for anyone that wants to changes theirs. Use Total Commander to replace the file (I suggest backing it up) in the windows folder.

Not much. Total Commander, Google Maps, Garmin XT GPS, WMWifiRouter, Diamond TF3D config, Divx player, Remote Desktop, hTorch and a few reg edits/TF3D changes.

I know you didn't ask me, but I use a pretty cool one that doesn't use any resources. It simply adds a color bar from red to green at the very top of the screen (does not take up any landscape).

I should have also mentioned I keep the exe on my storage card, but I copy it to My Docs (or where ever you want in Internal Memory) and create a shortcut in Windows\Start Up.

I don't execute the shortcut to the SD exe so I can remove my SD card if necessary.

What about Green? (To match the keyboard and the selected color if you put your Today screen theme to Htc Black.)

Oh and btw, does it also change other selected items such as the Calendar or Call History on TF3D? (if you press up on the d pad while on the home screen)

Would you mind copying and pasting the reg edit into your post? That way when we see what string to change, we can make it any color we like and not have to keep asking you for different variations. Nice work!!!

Re: Changed Email/SMS Alert Icon color - file included.
 
Is there a tutorial or something we can read to learn how to do this? I would like to try out different colors, but I don't want to keep asking you again and again for a different color. Thanks in advance..

I've been searching for a blue one. Thank you. This makes my phone so much better. TouchFlo looks exactly the way I want it now.

Problem is that it's not a regedit. It's an actual Manilla file, and that's not something we can just crack open in notepad, change the color hex code, save, and upload. I just tried! Wish I knew how folks were doing this (and getting it to work).

A little off topic, but where can I get the translucent flip for the clock?

Yeah, I've been playing around and seeing it isn't as easy as it looks. I know for fact registry has nothing to do with the color changes, but there has to be some kind of editor or .png file or something to make that icon change color.

edit:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414861 looks like a Manilla editor is out :)

Re: Changed Email/SMS Alert Icon color - file included.
 
If you want to make/edit your own, you need a Manila Editor. Copy the manila files from your phone to a folder on the computer, open manila editor, open the specific file you want to edit, export that file into an image file, open in Photoshop, change the color, save image, import back into manila editor and resave as a manila file, then copy/overwrite back into the windows folder on the phone.

Does this also change the highlight color of selected items? Like right now, if I tap on the clock, the whole thing lights up orange/yellow which clashes with my blue theme.

Does this also fix that problem?

Make sure you remove the .zip extension...

IT IS NOT A ZIP FILE

Re: Changed Email/SMS Alert Icon color - file included.
 
Now the next step is the yellow background highlighting on the e-mail tab that shifts between accounts. Anyone have an edit for that?

That can be fixed via RC Mod/UI Tweaker

Yeah, that doesn't change it when you are in TF3D, though. Highlighted junk is still in yellow.....

Thanks for the app, though.

shifferman99 11-15-2008 03:22 AM

Re: Changed Email/SMS Alert Icon color - file included.
 
How do you overwrite the yellow file with the red one? The file is completely locked, and can't be overwritten/deleted etc.
Please advise?
Cheers!
