Disabling HTC Home Button Highlight - Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development

I have included a picture of my current screen to show the source of this threads question:
{
"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"
}
Is it possible to remove the grayed-out button highlight?
I have tried editing the files with HTC Home & Customizer but to no avail. It may be controlled within a .dll or the image may be located eleswhere.
I modified my 6-tab buttons with indicators that will represent which tab is selected without needing the highlight. Since each button comprises of (2) images (icon & iconselected), you can create buttons which will indicate which tab is in use.
If anyone has ideas please let me know...
**edit** I figured it out. I used Paint.net to make every file inside of the \Program Files\HTC Home Customizer\Files\bg\Transparent folder completely transparent which did the trick...

where did you get that theme and plug in?

I've tried that but it doesn't work too well. If you change your icons and background color you will see what I mean. The best thing that I've come up with is to change the HH_BEZEL_fill.png color to match the color of your background, or as close as possible. Your highlighted icon will appear a little darker or tinted to the color you choose, but you shouldn't see any highlight around the icon if the colors match up. The only drawback with this is that you have to have a different HH_BEZEL_fill.png to match each of your backgrounds.

Backgrounds

So I am currently using a submicron wall paper and circle launcher as my main screen. I am also using Launcher pro and a 3x3 screen set up so that I have three columns and three rows in which apps can appear on as I need no more. (Screen shots included). Now if you see my circle in the middle is ever so slightly off and this, well it pisses me off to be frank. So does anyone know how to fix this?
Portrait Picture:
{
"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"
}
Secondly if I try to go into landscape orientation everything, and I mean everything is all wonky! So that my center doesn't line up, my widgets are all off and its just bad! Is there a fix to make it look like its in portrait mode, as in the design and widgets overlay on the same parts or do I just have to suffer??
Landscape Picture:
I took the image file straight from here and used the 800x480 I believe
If you need any more info please do not hesitate to ask!
I appreciate all the help
how many home screens are you using? The image may not be oriented correctly because it is stretching it to fit the entire span...
Just a guess. Not all screens are designed to work in landscape mode or you might need to change the number of rows/columns in your landscape setting to give the widget space.

[Q] How to change background in pull down

Can anyone help me??? I have been trying file after file and I cannot edit the background of the bar that says tmobile??? Any clues as to which file this is?

It's called either "quick_panel_notifications_bg.9" or "quick_panel_notifications_bg" and it is in the "drawable-hdpi folder" in the "twframwork apk"
I think its statusbarbackground01.9png.ill post if that's not it.at work and will check as soon as I get home .I just got into a bit of themeing myself. I know a little so just pm me and ill be happy to help if I can help
Status_bar_header_background_01.png
im sorry i didnt read the post correctly the first time so you can ignore the above.i make it transparent to get rid of it and im sure you can change the color by adjusting the hue and saturation in paint.net or adobe.if you use paint.net you can go to the bottom right and look for opacity or something close to that.that is the transparency adjustment if you didnt already know.its so easy just using winrar to move the images around.thats what ive found to be extremely easy.i definitly need to learn the correct way but that works for now.good luck my friend
I see the background image your talking about is already transparent. If you wanted to change it you can use the paint bucket and dump some on it then you'll be in a good position to manipulate the image to the way you want it

[Q] MDPI to LDPI

I've found a neat Touchwiz launcher that is meant for mdpi and my device is ldpi.
I would like to convert it for my device but I'm not sure where exactly to start. I doubt it's just resizing the images so before wasting my time on doing that, because I tried out the launcher without touching anything inside the apk and the dock icons appeared fine except the shortcuts on the homescreen were overlapping a bit with the dock icons and when I went to drawer, the apps weren't centered but were at the top and there was free space on the bottom. I would like to get some more information on this procedure from a few people with experience.
I've got APK-Multi-Tool and I just decompiled the apk.
I went to \res\layout-mdpi\ and I've opened up the launcher.xml and by looking at the code I have a feeling that's the file I should be editing.
There are stuff like this:
Code:
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="45.0dip"
Is this "45.0dip" thing in any way related to the screen density?
EDIT: Here are some screenies of what it appears like:
{
"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"
}
The problem on the second screenie doesn't really bother me much, the only problem there is the page indicator is at the bottom on the dock icons which sucks I would like it to be moved on top of them.
Anyone?

[Q] Help theming an application

So I have been trying to theme the Kik Messenger app. I have gotten pretty far but I'm having some issues that have me stumped. I'll post screenshots to explain.
First Image:
{
"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"
}
For some reason the settings screen is a big giant mess.
1). What happened to the rest of this bar? I also want to change that entire bar to the color code 2e2e2e but I cannot find it for the life of me.
2 and 3). These white bits should not be here since I have changed every instance of android:background to black, Help please?
Second Image:
1). Once again, I want to change this topbar color but I cannot find it anywhere in the .xmls or in the drawable folders.
2). This is a big one. The only reason that this bottom bar is grey and not black is because when I make it black, I cannot see what I am typing because the text is also black. I cannot find where to change the input text color anywhere in any of the decompiled apk.
I really need someone who is good with themes to reach a hand out. I wanted to take this on myself but these last touches are driving me crazy since I am a perfectionist. Thanks for any help!

[Theme] Stargate Softkeys

Hi Everyone,
I made a few sets of Stargate Chevron softkeys for myself so I thought I would share. I am very indecisive when it comes to certain things so I ended up making 3 sets.
All 3 sets support images for home, back, recents, menu, multi-window, search, q-slide, q-memo, and notification shade up/down.
I was lazy when generating the preview images so they don't show all the available keys. Additionally, the changes between sets go beyond just the recents button even though that is the only difference shown in the preview images.
Enjoy!
