Realize weather icons from oscarbum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3032867&postcount=24
[UPDATE] Added neon weather icons to neon.zip file (adapted from original Vito icons)
[UPDATE] See post #59 for extra Neon icons in a dll file. They can be used by calling them in a .lnk file as described elsewhere in this forum.
Briefly, you make a txt file and the syntax would be, for instance:
81#"\Storage Card\Program Files\CorePlayer\player.exe"?\Storage Card\My_icons.dll,-20
where the number 20 is the icon index in the dll file. I've also attached in post #59 a png file showing the icon index number for all of the icons in the dll file.
Best of luck
Great, thank you!
That's funny. I've been working on a new theme for WAD2 using this set and it didn't occur to me to use it for WF. Nice work.
Amazing Work! Thanks
For me, THE best skin for winterface... great job, and thanks for sharing
Posted the various links for WF themes here on xda-devs...
...at blog.iwindowsmobile.com
and the moderators keep removing them.
I wonder why :-/
i think they still see skinning as hacking. but then what do they expect if they don't offer alternative themes themselves? even though the software is pretty good, many people won't buy it because of the oppressive look of the UI.
people want a constant theme running through their whole device and application UI, or they want to be able to tweak things to their satisfaction
*more people will buy the software*
hope someone from Vito reads this.
i love it man vito/iwindows should allow open skins for this it makes it more attractive...and i was think (maybe its too ipone-ish but) they should lock the bottom bar and allow us to put our most used apps/settings/contax etc there just a thought but im addin this new skin to the collection
Great! Thanx friend!
thanks for all. I like it. I love the VITO Interface but now it has a very very good look and beautiful colors...
Thanks a lot...
Just for a laugh...
...some hand-drawn icons added to first post
nice, nice... thanxx man
Nice, thanks dave
If you ever decide to do another Winterface theme...
Here's some things I've found that might save you some time....
1. Don't do a calendar icon. Winterface replaces it with the background icon in the black file and puts the date on it.
2. Don't do a clock icon. Same reason.
3. Also, the weather icon in the icons file is no longer used. It pulls the info from the weather icons.bmp.
4. On my phone anyway, Winterface doesn't use the calculator icon. Kind of an odd glitch.
5. I don't use bluetooth, so I don't know for sure, but unless the plain bluetooth icon opens bluetooth explorer, doing all three icons is pointless too.
6. This next point actually adds time, but I noticed you did not do anything with the top row contact icon. It is skinnable, you just need to make sure you do EXACTLY the same thing to the contact icon in black.bmp.
Great job, as always. I hope to be back working on more icons soon as well once I finished my Blackberry Bold theme for WAD2.
Another theme
Here's one I threw together this morning. (Are we nearing the point of simply having a Winterface theme thread?)
I don't know if I've posted the weather icons before but it goes well with the realize theme.

Although I think it does use this icon if your default calendar app is not the standard Windows one. One way of working is to have your appointments shown on S2U2 as you unlock and use a better calendar such as Thumbcal as standard
2. Don't do a clock icon. Same reason.
3. Also, the weather icon in the icons file is no longer used. It pulls the info from the weather icons.bmp.
That's another ton of work I have to do :-(
4. On my phone anyway, Winterface doesn't use the calculator icon. Kind of an odd glitch.
Mine neither, but I figured that's because I dono't use the standard calculator
5. I don't use bluetooth, so I don't know for sure, but unless the plain bluetooth icon opens bluetooth explorer, doing all three icons is pointless too.
Yes, the plain one opens Bluetooth settings
6. This next point actually adds time, but I noticed you did not do anything with the top row contact icon. It is skinnable, you just need to make sure you do EXACTLY the same thing to the contact icon in black.bmp.
I thought the very same thing this morning. My upcoming theme will change this icon as well
Great job, as always. I hope to be back working on more icons soon as well once I finished my Blackberry Bold theme for WAD2.

Should be able to post another here in a day or so, depending on whether I take on the buttons and the weather icons as well!
Good work and thanks for the tips
well i notice the slide to unlock image (lock) is messed up. also, there are pink dots on bottom left and right of bluetooth icon.
other than that they're amazing. thanks for the icons.
we are also waiting your last theme with realize icons,oscarbum.
thank you both.
is anyone else having this issue.. it's also noticed when i move icons around and when one icon goes over another, it has parts of the icon that is transparent and that's how the lock looks when it appears. this is vga supported, right? i have touch pro.
Yes, I think that's the messed up lock icon that was mentioned
on another note though, I can' get the contact pictures to work if I change any of the contact icons as you said oscarbum.
I've tried changing the two in black.bmp and the one in icons.bmp in every combination and it doesn't work.
The pictures need to work in three places in the theme:
When you view you contacts ready to dial
When you select the contact to bring up details
When you add a contact.
There is no combination of changed icons (all identical) that works.
Ok, so I've been using that APK Manager to change the slider and unlock on the WidgetLocker screen, like that thread provides.
I thought I'd give it a try with my "SMS Unread Count" apk that I have. I changed the icon successfully and now I'm wondering if I can change the little red circle with the number in it? To another color. Where would that be?

If i'm not mistaken i think that involves actual code editing for the file.

Ah. That's way beyond my level for now. Thank you.
I have a sort of simular question... forgive me if i shouldnt post it here..
I was thinking of replacing the sms-unread icons for my lockscreen. And i wonder if it is even possible.
What i want is:
when there are no missed calls - no icon is visible
when there are missed calls - icon and number of missed calls are visible!
Same for sms (and mail)
Is this possible? If yes how? If someone could give me a little push in the right direction i will ofcorse try it myself and share it here!

You'll have to pull the .apk from your phone
Edit the images found in /res/drawable folder
Yeah, that's it
Android SDK
Photoshop/GIMP.
Code:
adb devices
adb remount
adb pull /data/app/sms.unre.. app
adb push sms.unre... /data/app/sms.unre...

when i pull the apk (i used apk-manager, should be ok i guess)
i can only see 1 png. so that is 1 png for both 0 and more missed calls.
since i want to see no icons when i have no missed calls i figured i needed 2 images: 1 "invisible" and 1 "normal".
Is this possible or should i get deep inside the code for that?
Uhm..
No. Use CMD to pull the apk.
Rename the .apk to .zip
res\drawable - There are all the images.
You need to edit the ones you wanna.
it makes no difference... i see the same files
still stuck with the same question

The images you're looking for might be in drawable-hdpi or something similar.
All pictures (pngs) are located in the drawable folders.
i have found the images... and i know how to replace them...
But that is not the problem!
i want the widget be invisible when there are no missed calls and visible when there is a missed call.

DUDE.
You obviously need to edit the images, something along the lines of:
- Make the NO MISSED CALLS image 100 % transparent
- Make the MISSED CALLS image .. whatever you want.
(OMG!!)

If it was simple like that... i wouldn't have to ask here
but...
The problem is that there are no separate images for "no missed calls" and "missed calls"

I figure it won't be easy as replacing a png or two.
but i am still hoping to find out how to make this...
You can orobably control that in the XMLs. But you have to know how to work with them.

Use APKManager to decomplie the XML first.
It's basically binary if you don't decompile it.
Do a quick search for APKManager on Google.

Just pushing this Question up....
Are there any updates if exactly that is possible??
Its exactly that what i am looking for ...
So, any Updates on that???
Found similiar Widget....and modded
Okay...so if anybody is interested...
Found another (Fun-)Widget....that simply does what i am looking for -> changing Icon if SMS is received and show a "Bubble" with Counting unread SMS !!
Link to Original Widget: HERE
I changed the Icon if NO unread SMS to transparent. Changed the "notification bubble" and the icon if SMS is received and unread!!
EDIT:
Talked to the Developer...and seems that we will create a new one that will be really exciting...stay tuned
Ok I have searched all morning and I am hoping that someone can help me. I am using desktop visualizer to use custom icons and I have installed sms unread count so that I can get the unread counts for email and sms. My problem is I cant seem to figure out how to use the custom icon with the sms unread count. Could someone please point me in the right direction on how to do this?
Thanks
Read here,I answered about SMS Unread Count app:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846485
Thanks. I did try thtat but there are no folders within that one you mentioned. There is just a file in there.
Which folders are at sdcard/data?
And which file is there,"nomedia"?
The folder is in the sdcard/data "com.kanokgems.smswidget" but inside of that folder is just the file "nomedia".
Yes,that`s right!
In this folder put your icons for sms,mail and phone!
Then via settings menu from the app you can choose a custom icon
for sms,mail or phone!
The app then search for custom icons in this folder which is called
"com.kanokgems.smswidget"
ok got it!! For some reason they were not showing up right after I put the icons in there. By any chance do you know what size icons Desktop visualizer uses? When I add the custom icon its bigger than the others and I would like to resize them down to whatever Desktop Visualizer uses as a default.
Thanks again!
Hm,don`t know at the moment,I use 72x72 icons for this!
Yup just resized at 72x72 and they all match now! Thank you so much for all of your help
No problem
Sms count is standard on froyo cos ive had it working but now its not working, android settings are a nightmare, can anyone tell me how to turn it on?
I know this thread is old, but I'd rather dig it up than create a new one. I d/l the app, but on my sd card under data there is no folder to add custom icons. Any one have any idea's??? Thanks in advance

Using your file manager just create the file sdcard/data/com.kanokgems.smswidget and place your icons in the newly created folder

I am using both Desktop VisualizeR and SMS unread count, but the icons do not align. The SMS unread Icons are about 20pixels lower that the desktop visualizer icons. Looking at theses off center icons drives me nuts, anybody knows a way to adjust the position of the icon for Sms unread? Thanks.
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...

cheers.
As always, use at your own risk!

BecauseI know I'm not theonly one whowants tounderstandit a lot,I'll showyoua way.Inspirationand ideasI got from this article. Huawei EMUI Themes gestalten und verändern [Teil 1]
What is needed:
- 7zip
- Sublime Text 3
Here we go. The prerequisite is time to rest and work accurately!
After you have installed the two programs are set to go.
Think up a folder where the issues come in here (.hwt). Always works only with copies!
Here you should create a subfolder with the topic name you now. There you unpacked the topic. Go into that folder and subfolders again sets each with the appropriate name. example:
com.android.settings = com.android.settings e
So you keep track of things.
The repeated her with the topic, which ye icons, etc you want to have.
Now comes the actual act. Take the issue of the want to edit it, in my case, Edward Returns.hwt and clicks it right (not extract!), Just select Open.
Next, locate the com.android.settings and open it again.
Here again open the res folder. Here delete the contents (click there and delete right).
Now we take the topic from which we want the icons. Also re-open and click through to the folder res. Now we select the content and push it, hold by the left, into the folder from another topic. We confirm the prompt with Yes. Now is the content in the other folder. Now we can both close, confirm the prompt with Yes and we already did it. Only on Mate7, select and look the topic. If you want, you can even assign a name. For the description.xml with Sublime Text 3 Open Notepad and then copy into the theme.
You can also use your own icons here on size, format and name eighth! It is also possible to take files from other themes if they do not exist.
Of course, goes even more, color etc, but you will still need to edit the corresponding .XML files.
Here are a few paths:
- Contacts com.android.contacts
- Gallery com.android.gallery3d: Here lies the Gallery widget.
- Player com.android.mediacenter: Here the player is widget.
- Settings com.android.settings: Here is what you see under settings and submenus.
- Links com.android.systemui: Here is what you see Status Bar / Benarichtigungen / Verküpfungen.
- Designs com.huawei.android.thememanager: Here is what you see under Themes.
- Clock / weather widget
com.huawei.android.totemweather / res
drawable-nodpi: Here are the wallpapers
drawable-sw360dp-xxhdpi: Here are the symbols
- Icons icons: This is what you see on the homescreen icons.
Thanks , i would like to create a theme for me, a dark one, simple and clear but unfortunately, i really didnt understand the procedure Is it possible for you to make a step by step guide ? Taking the default theme and changing it ?
I need one with dark toggle background, and white toggles, the one selected blue or red.
Than the notifications background black and white text and icons.
on settings , dark background and white text + icons.
So sorry i dont understand , i would have tried to make some themes
Thanks !
For the font you need to edit the corresponding XML files. This is tedious. It is easier to look for the best ducks already in coarse threads and replace only the background, symbols etc is.
A Guide for the XML I'm not going to write, which is too complex, as there is also still required Chinese.
You can read here.

Thank you dude !
cool instruction
i also want to edit this specific theme Edward Returns for my Ascend p7, the theme is as of now only for Mate 7 it cant be found on p7 online themes, so i downloaded this theme and installed on my p7, everything is as it should be except the icons, the system Apps icons are well, but the apps that i have installed their icons dont fit in the icon frame of the theme, they are bigger than the theme icons so they come on top of the frame, but some of the Apps that have smaller icons i can see the icon frame of the theme behind them. So i wanna know if it is possible to resize the icons so they fit the icon frame? and how it can be done?
Thanks in advance :good:
Unpack theme, edit icons and then copy the unzipped not matter.
Does anyone know how to change the background color in Messeges? i have a really cool theme but there is some error in its Messages App the background is white while the timestamp in the left side is also in white color so i can read the time... i dont know which line in themes.xml should i change????
Unfortunately, I do not quite understand you. The background images are. Just as the symbols of the timeline. About the xml you lay down only the text color and the assignment.
can you help me of that modified whatsapp called WhatsMaap changing icon cause it looks so bad because the whatsapp icon is circle so there is a black or green background the app icon
this is the app dude : https://plus.google.com/communities/111022663413469989470
I need to modify the text colour of notifications into NOTIFICATION PANNEL.
Not the standard text you find below email notification or whatsapp notifications, just the ones poping up with text surrounded by circle and asking to close a particular application consuming too much battery, for example.
Actually these notifications text are in black and, since the background is black, they aren' t readeble at all, while the others notifications (i.e. whatsapp notifications, email notifications, etc. etc.) are properly in white (see picture attached).
Considering that I need to keep the background as black, I would need to modify the notifications text colour only, from black to....white, or light blue, or other which result more readable on the black background.
I tried to edit and modify the hwt file, as well as the XML file contained into the com.android.systemui file, but unsuccesfully.
Can you explain me which file and line I must modify in order to have fixed this?
None can help me??? Fooox1, Kolembo,Hannanzikrea, please assist.
