Darker Password Screen

[pdoc01]

I made my password entry pad darker to go with the black theme of my phone. I did it with a registry edit:

HKLM > Software > Microsoft > Color

Change the "BaseHue" decimal value to 158. It should look like this after you change it.

BaseHue 158 (0x00009E)

Mine changed without a reset but I would do a soft reset to be safe.

Did it affect anything else?

The only thing I noticed is that it made the selected item in my start menu a shade darker, but that was fine with me. (See attached pic.) If it causes you a problem just change it back to 123. It should look like this "BaseHue 123 (0x00007B)". It will be back to normal. I did it about 3 times just to test it.

that's really nice, i prefer simple reg edits like this, my password screen looks nice now.

Works like a champ. Any ideas on how to change the background?

I don't know a reg edit, but here's a cab for the calculator that I use.
