Travis might be right that it was done using that hack or tool....don't be jelly, I don't what did my friend do with the phone... I hope that everything will be Under control...

There's no black accent. The whole OS look weird because you enabled High Contrast in Ease of access settings.

Dammit, then my damn friend has just used this damn tool or hack or whatever?? I have an app called Custom PFD registry editor.. Is it the thingy?

Nope it's not about the contrast... Thanks to Travis he explained everything , a friend of mine just messed with my phone's registry :/

 

[AhmadSorour]

Travis, do u have an idea how to turn it off?

 

[myst02]

Change name back to Nokia:
Open CustomPFD app, go to tweaks section, scroll down and change Manufacturer Name to "NOKIA"

To change accent color back, I need some info:
Go to settings -> themes -> accents on your phone and look if an accent color is missing (it MUST be one missing)
Post the name of the missing color. Then I can give you instruction to remove black accent....

 

[furkanavshar]

Go to Settings > Ease of access > Turn off accent color(High contrast) (Actually, turn off eveything in the Ease of access settings)

You are missing the point... It's a 3rd party .xap, not Ease of Access.

To the OP: smack your "friend" upside the head for downloading 3rd party software from an unknown source to your device without your approval. Then make your "friend" undo it. Unfortunately the "dev" who posted the .xap has no revert instructions - that is just sloppy and a sign that it probably should not be tinkered with.

Thanks for help guys, he apologized and said that he just wanted to try it (-_-).... I changed the name back to Nokia and returned everything as I believe it was before, Thanks again guys!

Oh whoop-dee-do look at me I've change OEM name and have black accent. Just tell everyone you used simple regedit hacks from xda.

It's easy to change the phones name to anything even Apple 6X is you want :wink: Just connect phone to Windows Phone app for desktop and change it there. You have to reboot the phone afterwards.

He doesn't mean the friendly phone name, he means the Model Name like : Nokia, HTC, Sony , etc.

Why is this thread still here then ? it should be deleted. Some people are so irresponsible don't you think ? :winktongue:

Your friend is awesome. From a fellow geek to another, tell him: "you rock!".

 

[anon(8150199)]

Are you sure the "High contrast mode" is not enabled?

 

[TechFreak1]

To the OP, best remove your IMEI and the other additional numbers...

 

[bozza72]

Id like to see a screen cap of the accent settings screen

His friend is awesome for modding this guys phone without permission or explanation? For installing a .xap from an unknown source on someone else's hardware and then just walking away from it?

​I most strenuously disagree.

Well... luckily he's not using an Android. If not, it might come with a "free gift".

But yeah, it's not a good thing to do. I don't think his friend really know what he's doing, but merely following instructions to mod it.
