Guest DeOS Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) Is it possible to change the background and text color of the Samsung main menu (see below)? Would be nice if it was possible to make it black instead of white (and vice versa with the text) to create a all black theme ;) . Or maybe someone knows how we can get our hands on the black samsung theme that is shown here: http://www.theunwired.net/?item=videoview-...ftware-hands-on ? Edited October 1, 2008 by DeOS

Hi, It 's not a samsung theme but SPB mobile shell soft.
Guest cookie74 Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 Hi, It 's not a samsung theme but SPB mobile shell soft. i don`t think that is a SPB mobile shell one as i have that, but don`t have that theme so now idea where that is from
Guest DeOS Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 Hi, It 's not a samsung theme but SPB mobile shell soft. It IS a Samsung theme. Only for some reason it was only included in the ROM the unwired tested.
Guest broughs Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 The best black theme I have seen is FlatBlack.tsk a black and white theme which works very well. Place in the Windows directory and select from today themes. I am not allowed to upload file but I guess you will be able to find it at XDA-Developers or through google. Regards Stu
Guest gavinfabl Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 Create a zip file with the tsk inside. This can be uploaded. I did this with the Tmobile metallic theme for the Omnia.
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 The T-Mo CSC has a black / grey ROM IIRC... P
Guest broughs Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) Done On the latest roms DXHI1 & 2 it should work straight off. For older roms the start menu color may apear black on black. To resolve this you may need to change the color of your today start menu text. That's done by editing the registry HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Colors. Variables 4 and 39 are the main ones, 39 being start menu color and 4 being Today item text colors. 4 should be added or changed to FF FF FF 00 (white), but you can have it whatever you want (00 00 00 00 is black).

Guest dufferman Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 aw poop, i thought flatback was gona change the samsung menu colour but it doesnt it just changes the backround and the start menu color. Also the text for my mail, message and call log remains black even though the other text is white. Anyone know how to change the samsung menu colour to black as posted in the pic in the 1st post on this topic?
Guest 1Mack Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) The real question is can someone get a hold of that open market ROM being used in the video i900XXHG7/XFHG7 (PDA) and i900XXHG7 (Phone) ;) :wacko: . Then the tasty bits can be extracted and shared :( :D <_ Edited October 1, 2008 by 1Mack

Guest jasonrabbit Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 and this one i think this is what you have been looking forSJ_Samsung_Omnia_Today_2_BlackTheme.cab
Guest DeOS Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) Todayscreen is perfect!! Only the "Main menu" as shown in my first post is still the same after installing the cab. seems like that part is missing? Edited October 1, 2008 by DeOS
Guest PhilipE Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 you can try these if i can upload Looks very nice mate, cheers ;)

Stu This one looks great! I'll see how it looks like with a fully black background... is there an easy way to get that or do I need to use a black picture as a background?
Guest dufferman Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 can anyone tell me what installing that cab did? I cant see any difference over flatback. No extra today screens or nuttin.

Only the "Main menu" as shown in my first post is still the same after installing the cab. seems like that part is missing? Correct... I have the same... only the icons on the main screen look different. I think I will stick to flatblack, which already looks very nice!
Guest Geronymous Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 can anyone tell me what installing that cab did? I cant see any difference over flatback. No extra today screens or nuttin. Indeed, the icons are a bit different though... it's a matter of taste!
Guest 1Mack Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) can anyone tell me what installing that cab did? I cant see any difference over flatback. No extra today screens or nuttin. Install the silver or black SJ cab (I am using silver the black has a problem for me :wacko: ). Then switch to SS Today 2. Then use the flat black and take a photo with your finger covering the lens of your camera and use that as your back ground picture for the flat black ;) :( Edited October 1, 2008 by 1Mack

Yes I did when I used the flat black and a black background pic (thumb over lens). But now I am using the TMO SS Today silver and here is some shots of both. Good night guys. I hope someone cracks that main menu color Edited October 1, 2008 by 1Mack
Guest dufferman Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 ah hadnt changed to today 2, prefer Today 1. Gutted the samsung menu int like it is in the first post. But cheers anyhoo.. Kind regards Mr. Ungrateful ;)
