How to change color of these balls? I have pointed out that it depends of the theme which is loaded. For example, can i have orange balls in music menu and blue in the rest of media? And how to do this?
Thanks for replies.

i think it's the media background which can be changed in a theme.

the line color for the music is orange only in walkman phones...
and the line color for the pictures is blue only in cybershot phones

the rest are gray..!

I don't think so. For example I had a theme, where all balls were gray (yelo). My friend has all blue balls in Splatta theme, so is it possible to change color of these balls?

then maybe....

maybe it gets it's color from one of the theme parameters like text color or highlight color....

i didn't see any parameter within the theme creator for this specific item.

but i think (not so sure) the color of the music and pictures are hard coded in walkman and cybershot phones to orange and blue...??

It probably is possible but not through Theme Creator.
Perhaps using xs++? It would require the same sort of mods as changing menu icons or camera/music drivers.

Last time i tried to change color of these balls as WheelColor in xml file (with thm), but nothing happened. The color was still the same. BTW Is there layout to media player to C702 with Walkman logo? :>

If you look in the code from a theme, you see a few media menu lines, afaik, there's a ball colour line too. If you change that, the ball colour changes

From what I saw on A200 modders' thread, you can change the color of the balls via editing the menu.ml but you can only change it to either blue or gray. Never tried it myself so can't really confirm.

But in walkman A200 phones, these balls are orange. So maybe it's hidden somewhere...
And is it possible to add Walkman logo in media player (C702)?

I've tried to change color of these "bubbles" but the color is still blue. Thanks for adding this application, cuz it's very useful. I have to keep searching for changing these damn balls. I think it's hidden in the soft so maybe later i'll try to find it.

If you extract your theme, and open the 'theme.xml' with notepad then you'll see :

Media_particle Color="0xffffff"

This make the particles looks WHITE..

But if you change it into :

Media_particle Color="0x000000"

Then the particles looks BLUE in cybershot phones and ORANGE in walkman phones..

I think the color is limited only to blue, orange, and white..
I've tried it on my k630.. And the colour is limited to white and orange..
