I am trying to add Battery Status to my custom ROM but have hit an issue with it displaying Icons. I have taken the battery status entries from the Initflashfiles.dat from Farias Real Thing ROM and also the registry entries. When the ROM is installed all the files get installed in the correct folders and Battery Status is displayed on the Today Screen, however there are no Icons displaye, just text.
I have verified that the BatteryStatus directory exists in \Windows and inside this another folder 'default' and inside this the various .BMP icon files are present.
What am I missing?

Any more?
THANK you very much
htc Weather icons.
These have been cropped to 48px wide x 32px high, in order to fit on the current version .97
To put larger icons on screen, the app would need to place them using their top-left pixel as a locator, which I don't think it currently does.
Anyway, these work as they are:
and Medweather 23x23
There are tons on the SBSH site but you'll need to use Photoshop to batch convert them to png filetypes and keep the transparency.
One more.
Enjoy
Hi. First of all, don't judge me, because I'm new here.
My question is: How do I change the weather icons. I moved them to the weather files in gfx in S2U2 file. Soft-reseted, not nothing. My source of weather informations is SPB weather... CAN YOU HELP ME...
THANKS.
I also encounter the same problem. I overwrite the weather png files in s2u2 folder and the weather icons is gone on s2u2.
If your sourc is spb Weather...
these icon won't work.
spbWeather uses a single bmp file with a transparency channel laid alongside the icon images.
Pocket Weather and Weather Panel use individual icons.
For more spbWeather icons, you can go here:

Hi. I installed another pack of icons, but it only recognizes the default one. What can I do with the icons to make it recognise them?

Once I've downloaded the icons I like to have from there, I noticed inside the zip file for the themes within Spb weather it shows two lines of icons side by side in a single bmp file how would I go about making these show on S2U2?
Thanks in advance
They should be in the gfx\weather folder
and it should just show, as long as you've selected spb as your weather source in the S2U2 Settings application.
So I should just copy the zip files over into gfx\weather or should I extract them first?
The file called...
weather.bmp should be extracted and inside the \gfx\weather folder
If you're i8n any doubt, uninstall S2U2 and re0install from the .cab file. All files will be re-instated in their corect positions, including the spb icons

If you use HTC Home Customizer you are able to add a new iconset to the HTC Home Plugin. Some of the downloaded iconsets will also change the icons used for S2U2. Don't know why, but it works!

Thanks for the icons ... but the zip file is missing icons for conditions 38, 39, 40, 41 and 42. Any chance you can post those missing files.
Thanks
Thank you for your sharing
Is there a way to change the name and icon of an app that has already been installed on a nonrooted G1?
Get BetterCut.
I knew bettercut worked for creating icons on the desktop but does it also work in the menu?
I would like to know about the name changing also. There's been some apps that just have long ass names! I don't need to see "Chee Wee's Screen Timeout App" when "Screen Timeout" or even "Timeout" would be much better to me
I am looking for this as well. Is there a way? Some of the apps I have installed just have their names cut in the menu and end with "...".
Is this possible without the source? I would like to change my security apps, the ones that I text and it gives me the location? I think a theif would see these apps and delete them after he steals the phone.
IIRC...
you need to unpack the .apk of the file and edit the part to change (icon or name [ i have no idea what they are called] and then rezip and resign and then install again.
Here's a link on how to do it for the ICONs:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503007
Is there a guide or tutorial somewhere on how to take a bunch of icons and package them as an icon pack?
The icons are in each apk, so if you updated the apk with the new icon, and pushed it to your phone, the icon would change.
Alternatively, if you wanted this to happen automatically, you could modify multiple apk icons, resign them all, and create a script to automatically push them to the appropriate directory.
I read somewhere that if I change the icons in an apk, the signature will no longer match and the apk would be unusable. Is this true?
(I intend to rip open one of the OpenHome icon packs and replace the icons with my own.)
thanks
Well if you change the icon in the apk, you will have to resign the file prior to flashing. I haven't actually tried this, but I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work.
How exactly do I mod the pngs inside the SMS unread apk? I have tried dragging and dropping and pushiung then setting permissions, but nothing will work....it just wont show up in widgets after I edit it.
TIA,
Tee Jay
from memory... and its been a while since i used this app... you have to create a custom icon png and put it somewhere on your device (specific app folder), then in the widget setup menu, you have an option to chose widget icon - your new icon should appear in that list.
let me know how you go.
-----EDIT------
here you go dude, theres an explanation on the dev site...
