The only problem I notice now is that the data arrows remain solid.

Ok, lets go over this again. the phcanhtc is the generic dialer that HTC releases for GSM phones. It has all the skinning functions you could want. Unfortunately, Sprint jack up this file, stripped out most of the skinning functions and add in CDMA specific functions, then renamed it to PhoneCanvas.dll (the original is short for Phone Canvas HTC)
The reason your arrows don't change color is because the phone now believes it on a GSM network. GSM can have simultaneous data and phone, so they data is either on or off, never Gray. Also you now have a 5 bar signal reading instead of a 7 bar reading, your 911 will not work properly, prl will not update, you will get massive memory leaks because it is now making GSM calls to other dlls that do not exist, etc.
Your phone won't work worth a dang, but hey, your skin will look great.
