Hi,
I am quite happy with s710, but a small thing annoys me a little.
When you change the Main Screen theme and a colors scheme - one thing stays unchanged - the background picture during making a call. It stays green (in my case) with HTC logo. When havin, say, red colors scheme the green background with two red stripes at the top and at the bottom looks ugly.
How this can be changed ?
thanks

Search the registry for RAI:

The logo/image displayed during a call in progress, Call History, etc... can be changed in your phone's registry. You need a registry editor to access the phone's registry. Just do a search on the internet for "Mobile Registry Editors". Most of them are free-ware.
If you want that logo to be the same for all screens, you can change the image itself instead of making the registry changes. Your phone needs to be application unlocked. In the Windows directory on your phone you'll find a file called: ms_mobile.gif
By replacing this image, and soft resetting your phone, you've changed most of the screen's logos/display images.
If you want a different logo for different screens, you can use the registry editor to manually set them. Go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Shell/Rai
under the sub-tree you'll find all the screens (MSCdial, MSBranding, ...)
Almost every image can be changed here.
Good luck.

Hi, I also am trying to change the background image when dialing, its the blue/green full screen background which does not really look good with my homescreen.
I have looked through windows directory, but cant find that image? any ideas. I see the smartphone gif, but that dose not bother me to much.
Thanks for any help!

This is the case on the e650
Most likely:
DialScreen_240x320.bmp
DialScreen_320x240.bmp
Incoming_bg.png
And yep, ms_mobile.gif is the banner image.

Hi and thanks for all you help, I have done the above, my phone was an unbranded s710, so did not need to do a lot, but its that fullscreen dialing background that I cant find?
DialScreen_240x320.bmp
DialScreen_320x240.bmp
They were not in the windows folder, I did put my own in there, but after a soft reset, still that image? (see below)

Any more ideas?

Oh THAT one!!!
Looks like the standard WindowsMobile.jpg. That one can be found in the Windows folder. WindowsMobileLS.jpg for landscape.
Would be wiser to change it in the registry. Make your own screen, copy it to the windows folder and change these registry entries:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\Progress\Po rtrait\Other\bmpNormal
change the value from \Windows\WindowsMobile.jpg to \Windows\SomeNameForYourCallInProgressScreen.jpg :D
And for the landscape version:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\Progress\La ndscape\Other\bmpNormal
Just checked this on my phone and it works. Let me know if it works for you.
