Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

I just need a WM6 theme for my Sprint TP2 that will make the top and bottom (task bars)? black instead of dark gray..

I would think this would be an easy thing to find/do but I've been searching google/xda/ppcgeeks for the past 1.5 hours and have not found what I'm looking for..

Please help!

Thanks.

I have no idea why sprint went with that gray- check this post for black top and bottom bars- copy to your /windows directory and then select them on the settings/today

Thanks!!

Also.. what about making the today/start screen background black (as apposed to that same gray)?

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

There are some nice black backgrounds here- http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=84171
You will still be left with that grey clock- check out the TP2 subforum on themes etc- to replace the clock
Let me know when you find a nice black "all in one" theme (sliders, icon, clock etc). You could also ask here for one- http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...8&postcount=51

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

If you get the tmobile tsk. cab file from the ( MIghtyMike ) sticky about theme,hacks... It will give you the top and bottom bars black...

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

Oh no I did manage to change the background.. What Im talking about is the gray background that you see when you press the windows button (or click the windows icon)..

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

any way to change the grey background on the rest of the touchflo tabs? i keep hearing backgrounds 4 all tabs is buggy... so wondering if there was a simple cab that just changes it to something less drab, maybe even the original tf3d blue spotlight background...

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

Yes. Check out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...ghlight=hdwall

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

thanks... those cabs are quick and painless... dont knoww hat sprint was thinking with orange and grey scheme..

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

FYI- here's how I ended up with a nice black theme
1. copied over the HTC black.tsk and selected it (in this thread)
2. installed cmylxgo's sprint TP2 flip clock enabler
3. installed cmylxgo's tmobile TP2 rhodium transparent flip clock
4. installed the TD2 No top Curtain from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...55&postcount=2
5. installed Transparant Bottom Bar from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...02&postcount=1
6. installed cmylxgo's custom manila 2.5 slider icons and transparent slider
7. used a plain black background made by xnifex here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=283
Credit goes to everyone above!

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

I want mine to look like this and I'll be happy. I can't even find that clock.

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

you are very close- try this
in my steps below replace #3(transparent clock) with the clock here
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...6&postcount=59
and then replace #6 (mylxgo's custom manila 2.5 slider icons and transparent slider) with mighty mikes here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...88&postcount=1
let me know how that works- I have not tested this out yet- if it works make sure to thank everyone above

here's another clock you could try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...0&postcount=41
attached is what my screen looks like with the xda clock

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

one last screenshot with elvelynn's blacknumber clock- I like it so much I am keeping it! Now I just need to wait for someone smarter than me to make a nice colored icon set like at0mang that works completely on a sprint branded TP2

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

Does the functionality still work with this clock. All of these white flip clocks that I've tried don't work to access the world clock/alarm clock settings on my TP2. They all have brought me to the WM6 clock settings.

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

yes it works- just make sure to install the sprint flip clock enabler first: see step #2 above
2. installed cmylxgo's sprint TP2 flip clock enabler

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

Do your edits also make the black background on all tabs? or just the main home screen?

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

I use this and it works well.

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

yes- step 7 installs a background made by using hdwalls which will make every tabs background black- it avoids the use of the "background for all pages" tweak which has some problems and can be buggy (for example shifts sprint logo on top over)

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

Where can I find this clock at? It does flip correct?

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

you can find it here and yes it flips correctly (but I'm not sure what the correct way to flip is):

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

ok, not sure what im going wrong but i add the file to windows folder and when i go to the home edit screen and click it i get light grey...

it looks like a cab and i have tried to click on it but it take me to the home edit screen and nothing... thats when i copy and pasted in the windows folder... but like, it turns the taskbar light grey


any ideas?

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

what file are you talking about? the .tsk file? which one- I know the HTC black is the one used for my screenshot- once its on your device you select it via settings/personal/today/choose theme. All the other files are cabs which you click on to install

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

yeah its a .tsk file i think... i think its the one MM posted.

i selected the file from personal today area but it didnt work. like i said, it made it light grey not black

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

try this one http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...8&postcount=14- this is the one I used but it is from MM as you noted

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

so once i download it to my card... i just copy and paste to my windows folder right?

then go personal/today etc. ?


ill give that a try

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

yes- I usually copy it over to \windows but you may be able to select it when its on your sd card

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

well same thing happens... light grey... dont know if its the theme that i am running but i copy the file to windows and go to today to select it.

i dont know

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

thats strange- what theme are you running?

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

Dusk new manila plus the dialer

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

Where did you find that icon set? How come it doesn't work for a sprint tp2?

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

icon set is here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...16&postcount=1
why do you say it doesn't work for a sprint TP2- its working great on mine (at0mang doesn't work because it does not include sprint navigation and tv)

ALSO for all you fanboys of the stock black theme I noticed one was posted over on the tweak/hack thread here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...&postcount=234 (I have not tested it)

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

Awesome...! Thanked you.

Re: Need WM6 Black Theme!
 

do you have a pic of that bottom link look ??

I might be interested in getting the grey / green default look from HTC instead of the lite gray sprint look. I believe like the one pic the thread poster in this thread i think posted.
