[Q] Rooted and Flashed to Generic, now my Calendar looks like this! - XPERIA X10 General

Hey all, I followed the instructions here and have unlocked, rooted and flashed my x10a to the generic firmware. Everything works great except that my calendar now looks different. I can't link the screenshot just yet as I don't have enough posts.
Which is fine except I can't change the colors. I've searched and tried all the tricks for changing the colors, and the sync brings the changes to all my calendar widgets, but not to the calendar app.
Is this the default look for the generic calendar app?
Is there another way to fix this?
Thanks!
Statik

Try using a custom rom for your phone model, the generic sometimes has display bigs, happens alot on mine since its the mini and several apps dont fit the screen.
I mean if its resolution problem.. For color change just grab a different calendar app or widget, the custom ones usually have lots more customization options.

How to get the Desire HD/Z widget in other builds?

i was running desire hd 3.4 for the last couple of days but today i decided to switch to froyo sense 2.4.2 because the camera is working on that build.
now i would like to know if it's possible to get a updated sense on that build. there are some nice features missing. like the preview of themes, a lot of themes, background pictures and especially some nice widgets and the feature to see all htc wigets in one place.
especially i am looking for the data-connection and settings widget which comes in bar-style (setting, wifi, mobile-data, sync, bt, etc.). is it possible to get it somewhere? it was pretty convenient compared to the single button widgets i found on the market.
thx a lot!
u cant. HTC sense is complicated. u either have it or u dont. at least for now...
that's sad. does anybody have a suggestion for a bar-like-settings-widget. sorry for my english.
I know what you are talking about. There are a few out there. Try "extended controls" in the market. It's also built into CM 6.

Have you tried the "Power control" widget? I do use LauncherPro, but I don't think it's specific to that.
Go to the market and search for "SwitchPro". It's awesome, and you can customise the appearance, actions, and number of buttons. Easily better than the power widget included with froyo.

[Q] Launcher Pro crashes when applying custom icons.

Hey guys,
My Launcher Pro crashes almost everytime I want to apply a custom made dock icon or dock background. I have noticed that when I use icons made by someone else it usually works, but if I try icons that I made it simply crashes...
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Hello Alex
Working on LauncherPro Plus v0.8.4 and it works flawless. I tryed (quickly, I admit) the things that fail with you, and have no problem at all. I'm working on the stock froyo.
Perhaps a stupid question since you are more experienced then me, but have you already tried to whipe the cach or reinstall the application? I have had some "unexplanable" problems with other apps that were solved this way.
Erwin.
I found the error.
I downloaded the .png files using dropbox and thats the reason it wouldn't work.
So when I transfered the files using a usb cable it worked perfectly...
Very strange but I'm glad it finally works

Possible to replace phone and contacts

Hello just wondering if it is possible to replace the phone and contacts with something from stock...
I feel ya, I can't stand the dialer and contacts on TW. Only way at the moment is to install CM12, builds for the different variants can be found here on xda

Why not try "Rocketdial" at the play store.
It's excellent and it's a 3 in 1 app.
It has contacts, dialer and optional full screen caller id all in one app.
It has a whole lot of options too. ( fully compatible on all android phones.
Check it out here:

Have a happy new year!
i am using ExDialer since almost a year now... i find TW dialer app boring...
I find that all these dialer apps simply overlay on top and route to the the TW dialer anyway. I tried a few of them.
I have used rocket dial, exdialer, angel dialer, and some other 2 or three, very disappointed, horrible lags, in some cases, first appears the stock dialer, then the replacement, yes, I think, they are redrawn over the stock one, so, its worst to use them for me
Try touchpal contacts or contacts+. Anyway for me iprefer the default dialer. It has a lot of functions

Themes for SMS/text messaging? looking for an older stock android theme

Hi!
I am a big fan of all dark theme, I desktop is entirely black, all the buttons are hidden, and the only thing I miss about my Samsung galaxy S3, was the stock SMS/text messenger that came with android 4.2, and I think android 4.3.
I've included an couple of example here. What is the closest theme that I can get to match this theme?
I really can't stand the multicolored lollipop cutesy wusty pink popcorn dancing hippo, Disney happy squirrel themes. I prefer a more commando approach.
Here is the theme I am looking for.
Ideas?

Next SMS
I use Next SMS. ... you can customize pretty much every aspect of the app.. colors for everything.. background.. etc.. download different themes.. etc..
Use go sms. And look for a blank themes..
Sent from my SM-G9250 using Tapatalk
I am wondering if there are any ROM's that will cover some of this. My problem is, I have to get one SMS app, and then add another dialer app, to get the look that I want, and sometimes one extra theme. I'm hoping that a ROM will come up, that will just essentially be like Kit Kat 3.1, in both messaging and dialing departments.
On that subject, does anyone here know better of an android ROM, or overall theme, that looks more like older android, that will handle all of this in a single swoop?
Thanks!

HTC 10 dark (black) dailer after Nougat update?

My HTC 10 received Nougat OTA update a few days ago and everything is great, no problems at all, it feels even faster and smoother. Some users reported problems with wifi, my connection is now much, much better and faster, on my home network AND at work.
There's just one really small detail that drives me crazy. I have dark theme installed and everything IS dark as it was on MM, except phone dailer. Even dailer itself is dark but when calling it goes white and that wasn't the case in MM, that screen was dark too. Any idea?
I reinstalled the theme, tried other themes and it's all the same.
European (Croatia) unlocked, as it is, not rooted.

Dialler uses a different apk now when in a call (InCallUI.apk), so I guess HTC have to update their theme engine you theme this as well.
Of course, if you're running a custom ROM, then you can use a themed InCallUI.

Thank you for your answer. So, I'll have to wait and deal with it.
I mean, I will not root my phone for just that one reason.

Yes, I have the HTC Bolt, which came with 7.0 Nougat outta the box, and changing dialer color doesn't quite work how its supposed to, so I think HTC haven't quite updated it yet as not many of their devices have nougat yet...
If you happen to use the online theme maker of HTC, then you would know the caller background was default as dark.
It could be the nougat update changed the default setting.
What you can do is to go the online theme maker, build a dark one for yourself to see if it works. It could be that the designer just left the setting as default, which is white (bright).
I love bright ones so all the themes I made are forced into bright caller background.
That change came with nougat and, yes, I did make new theme in theme maker and it's all the same - everything is dark as it should be and as it was in MM except that one (InDail) screen. It looks like change have to be made in Theme maker itself...
I have the same problem. Having created a personal theme in Maker Pro, the In Call screen remains as the default, and hasn't changed with my theme. When previewing the theme on the website, the In Call screen shows correctly with my theme, but it doesn't show on the phone (HTC M9 and HTC 10). If anyone has any updates on this, it would be appreciated.
Thank you OP and others-this too was driving me crazy this weekend along with Google Play services not working. I'm a black dialer person and am surprised HTC doesn't have this as an option out of the box. If I find a solution I will share. I joined xda just to post this-hope I did it right ?
same issue
Yeah I'm having the same problem and I use a custom theme I made myself.

To fix Google Play just turn your phone off for 2 to 5mins turn back on and it should work.
