I am wanting to add a folder on my storage card to the Search Folders. When I go to Today Screen and browse for a picture background it come up with a search screen but it does not have a new folder I made called "Wallpapers".
Is there an XML or registry setting I can adjust?
Thanks
Rick

I would like to re organize all my icons into individual folders to make things reorganized but I cant figure out how to move them around. Any help would be appreciated.
Not sure if you can reorganize out of alphabetical order but you can make folders to group them.
OPEN: File Explorer
GOTO: "My Device\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"
There you will see the folders and shortcuts to your programs
is there a program or a way to move my icons around some are buried deep into the programs and is there a way to move icons to desktop ?
Thanks AL
Just open File Explorer and navigate to Windows/Programs folder, find the shortcuts (burried deep) and move them wherever you want. But what do you mean by desktop? Today screen?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think you mean Windows/Start Menu/Programs ?
yes today screen
is there a way to move some of them there ?
Is it possible to create an Icon to the Programs folder (=All Programs)?
Is it possible to create a working icon to a specific folder on my device (my saved documents)? Error. [Works from start button, not tf3d]
Is it possible to edit the ATT Tab to change the icons?
Just updated a pro2 (Rhodium) to wm6.5 and hate the look....
My background image is very light and I want to change the colour
of the text on the today screen. Unlike 6.1 it is not so easy and
although I am used to editing registry etc. I can NOT find where
this is stored. I believe maybe in the .tsk file, but also can not find an editor to
deal with wm6.5 and these .tsk files.
ANY help and clues would be appreciated!
ALSO, is there ANY way of sorting the Start Menu Icons?
Rename .tsk to .cab, extract .cab (eg, with Cab2OEM). There is a registry file (.rgu) that you can edit within.
Start Menu order can be modified via registry/.provxml, or you can simply hold and drag individual icons.
Thanks, but sadly with win6.5 can not drag icons anywhere - only option is "move to top" and having trouble finding where it stores this data, although
have found a couple of registry keys that say menu priority but numbers
don't make any sense.
Also in the .tsk for wm6.5 is the setup.xtml file and 3 other files that have
no extension. I have tried editing in various programs but just a few text
words at random and data - presumably the .png files compressed.
So, still looking!
Found two articles and work around. May help others.
WM6.5 does NOT have the usual entries under \color but if they
are added, then they seem to work
See:--

but for more overall this seems useful, but still checking:-

This guide is to help people start creating Themes for ADW and understand what they are doing.
Instead of just replacing images by unzipping an APK I will tell you how to create your own theme from scratch.
I had a real struggle to find all this and I now I want to share what I found out
I will provide you with links with content that you should read and write some things by myself.
How to : Setup your working environment
How to : Make your own theme
Where should I put my images/xml?
The drawables (images/xml) should be putted in the drawable folder as standard. If you want to have different images for different pixel density(xhdpi/hdpi/mdpi/ldpi) make the folders: drawable-xhdpi,drawable-hdpi,drawable-mdpi and drawable-ldpi.
the text behind the hyphen (-) is a configuration qualifier. Android looks for these and if it suits the specific device it will choose the drawables from that folder instead of from the default folder. If a resource android looks for isn't found in the special folder it will instead look in the default folder for it.
If you want different images for landscape mode you would need to create a folder called drawable-land and if you want different images when the device is both mdpi and in landscape you would create a folder called drawable-land-hdpi.
Find out more about resource qualifiers
How do I add my own icons?
Find the name of the icon you want to replace at Theme Icon Name Database
Place your own drawable in the right folder.
E.g. To change the icon for the Android stock browser in a hdpi device I would ad a file called com_android_browser_browseractivity.png in drawable-hdpi. If I want the same icon for all devices that uses my theme I could add the same icon in the folder drawable.
How do I export my theme for testing?
Right click on you project in Eclipse and select export. Click the Android folder and select Export Android Application. Press next and then next again. Choose "Use existing keystore". Press browse.
In windows find C:\Users\ENTER YOUR USERNAME HERE\.android\debug.keystore
In Linux and OS X I think it is in: ~/.android/debug.keystore
The Password is android.Press next.Choose "Use existing key".
Alias: androiddebugkey
Password:android
Press next. Press browse and choose your destination of the apk. Click Finish and you are done.
Help! ADW force closes and I can't uninstall the theme!
Look here for sulution
If there is something that needs to be added send me a PM or write a comment.
I will add: program to use to create the images and eventually a complete sample theme with documentation.
If you find the tutorial good, please post to bump the thread.

i hate that if after done with my theme and it says application not installed.
