exactly. if you look at the chart linked above, you will see that 99FFFF should be for aqua. But using 99FFFF is the equivalent of FFFF99 on the chart (move the first two hex digits last), which is the pale yellow color.
There's nothing wrong with the chart, it's the same chart posted in many sites.
The colors are reversed from normal......
Excerpt from my cheatsheet....
Dial Skin Colors are mixed using 3 octets of numbers and intensity between 00 (no color) to FF (pure color)
Dial Skin Colors are the reverse of the the SmartDialer Colors
FF0000 = Blue
00FF00 = Green
0000FF = Red
000000 = White (All colors off)
FFFFFF = Black (All colors on full strength)
888888 = Grey (All colors on 1/2 strength)
Mixing the primaries yields:
FFFFFF =White <--16 Million colors to choose from and follows standard hex color naming conventions.
00FFFF =Yellow <--Awesome Contrast
FF00FF =Purple
FFFF00 =BlueGreen
00AAFF =Orange
FFAA00 =The Touch Dialer Blue (Mixture of Blue and Green)
Paul is there any way that the dialer can switch to the in-call screen (where you can turn on speakerphone, etc...) automatically when a call is dialed?
it does this for me already whenever i make a call or receive a call automatically. the only time it doesn't do this is when i call my voicemail, which makes sense since you need the keypad anyways.
In Call (Progress) page text color:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Progress\Portrait\VerbButton\textColor
In call (Progress) page text size:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Progress\Portrait\VerbButton\textRCMLStyle
background, button graphics, etc. located in \Phoneskin in the root directory of device
that's what i know so far, until Paul can get us the rest of the registry cheat sheet. Patience.
I didn't have any criteria selected for my search, so that's why it came up empty. Thanks for letting me know, superfly. One problem I'm having, is that when I edit any registry entry using PHM Regedit, then exit, it's still set to the new value. But when I reset my phone, it goes back to the old value. Does anyone know why this would happen?
No idea. Would have to see the .dll he is using for it. Anyone have a dump? The wm5 .dll from Sprint was pretty robust. Maybe they are using that .dll. I will look into it as time permits.

what i found was that it takes a little time to write to the registry. make the change and wait a bit before you do a soft reset and it will stick.
how does one post screen shots? with a digital camera?
First you need a screenshot app for your phone. There are many out there and some are free. I take them when my phone is connected using SOTI Pocket Controller (not free). Then you need a place to post your picture online (I use photobucket.com). Then you link to that online photo storage using the "Insert Image" link when creating a forum post.

i am having problems with the theme also. i did as instructed and when i select the theme, nothing happened, my old Windows default theme was still there. Except now, when i select any other theme, like Sprint yellow default, nothing changed..backbround color and top and bottom bars are the same. Only when you highlight an object do you see color change to yellow on that object.
Don't know if this had anything to do with theinstallation of the theme or not or if this happened with another software.
ive been sick the last week so ive been working on some skins. the right text alignment on the buttons was really bothering me. i started fooling with the registry. If you want to center the letter and numbers create these dwords:
how is it that the 6700 wm6 rom that helmi released has the actual touch dialer built in with no reported issues??
It does have issues. People have reported 911 problems and I know the Vision arrows didn't turn off. Which is why the first thing I installed on it was Paul's version.

has anyone noticed an increased propensity for the phone to automatically go to flight mode without any interventions? I believe it started when i installed this sialer but i could be wrong.
also noticed a registry key i have never noticed before
in HKLM\security\phone there is \SuppressFlightModePrompt = 1

you can also have the text be aligned left or top or bottom, etc. just fool with the numbers. make sure that the minor and major numbers are the same.
0-9 move the text left and right. anything above that seems to keep it aligned right but moves it up and down
if you dont know how to edit your registry dont try this. blah blah blah. Paul probably has more info on this stuff than I.

BIG NEWS!
I finally found a way to eliminate the "call history" text, thank santa and his lil elves for this one.
go to HKLM/Security/Phone/Skin/Dialer/Portrait (Landscape)/verbbutton/
change the following
textflags = 986895 (dec)
last update of the night kids.
the lil trick to hide the call history text also works for the regular buttons too (1-9, # , *) Woohoo!
change the above mentioned majorflags and minorflags to "986895" (dec)
also works in the progress screen for the button text.
Thanks for working on this, eb, but I hate "magic numbers" when noone knows how they work, so I spent some time investigating these.
All of these flag entries (MajorFlags, MinorFlags, and textFlags) all end up getting passed to the DrawText() function of Windows Mobile. Here are the docs for that function: DrawText
That gets us a list of possible things we can put into the flags, but not how to translate a set of flags into a DWORD. However, here's a list from the DX8 documentation giving the actual values for the flags: MSDN Library Archive
To combine flags, we add them together. So, to center text horizontally (DT_CENTER) and vertically (DT_VCENTER), we add 1 and 4, so our flags value (MajorFlags and/or MinorFlags) is 1+4=5. So far, so good.
Now, what about that magic value 986895 = 0x0F0F0F? Breaking it down into bits, this is the same as enabling all of these flags:
What a mess, eh? Many of these don't even make sense to use together. Centered and right-justified at the same time? Right-to-left reading order? Some of them aren't even supported by WM6 (DT_EXTERNALLEADING, DT_MODIFYSTRING, DT_NOFULLWIDTHCHARBREAK)!
The one that catches my eye out of this mess is DT_CALCRECT. Here's the important bit of the description for that flag:
"DrawText returns the height of the formatted text but does not draw the text."
That looks like the part that we really care about. So I tested it on my phone, just using the flags value for DT_CALCRECT, 1024 decimal, or 0x400 (400 hex). It worked perfectly!
So if you want your text not to be drawn at all, I recommend using flags = 1024.
good work. the next thing i need to figure out is how to make the CmdBtnDn png semi transparent so when a button is pressed, the numbers/digits can still be read.
has anyone noticed an increased propensity for the phone to automatically go to flight mode without any interventions? I believe it started when i installed this sialer but i could be wrong.
also noticed a registry key i have never noticed before

don't know if that has anything to do with it.
yeh same here noticed it happened today auto went into flight mode
yeh same here noticed it happened today auto went into flight mode
but i am beginning to think it is not this dialer. my friend has the exact same phone as me but she doen't have this dialer installed, but has the flight issue as well, probably more often than me.
