These two don't work IN A VGA WINDOWS MOBILE 6.1

Hi vipaman
I know it's not an answer but 6.1 is really old and your choices are very limited

So no other way????

IconXT
If you want to just change folder icons, try using IconXT, I've been using it for years, and it works well.
Here's a Link: http://www.jdhsoftware.com/products/iconxt/

Here are the 5 icon changers I use;
vxShortcut; http://www.cam.com/vxshortcut.html
Pro: optional Command Line
Con: Default location can only handle x icons, thus Program Files\ needs to be added before adding massive shortcuts
SK Shortcut manager; http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?sksmgr/m_sksmgr.html
LnkMgr; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=646211
Shortcut Creator; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=275577
Use icons of *.EXE / *.GIF / *.PNG via IconHelper
_Create an exe file with an embedded image as icon: PNG2EXE
Hope this helps,

Weather icons for s2u2 v0.9x or more

Enjoy !
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:
http://www.spbclub.com/skins.php
You'll need to register to download them
Hi,
my sourceweather program is HTC Home but i'm not be able to use this icon set.
Can you give me some suggestion ?
Thank's in advance...

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?
Thanks in advance.

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!

Hallo.
I made this one for you who cant see windows taskbar anymore and get tired of htc Home
All you FIRST need is in the Bluephone-zip file. then you can use my other skins.
My theme just needs vjtoogletodayalphaII and BatteryStatus and a 2 small application to mute the phone/make x button and windows menu enable.
Everything is working: SMS/Email/Missed Calls-Counter; WIFI/BLUETOOTH on/off, mute the phone, a new taskmanager (Batterystatus) etc. You get a new small transparent taskbar with a big taskmanager-button
--) Okay: here we go:1. put the vjtoggletodayalphaII into the windows/Startfolder. Go to Registry: HKLM\Software\Vijay555\VjTodayToggle\ and set the values under "Startsize" und "Softkeysize" to "1". If you need your Softkeys leave/set the sofkeysize to about 26.
2. Install Batterystatus (if you have ultimate launch: it works as a today plugin)
3. Put the folder "SmartUtilities_FilesOnly" to Windows\Program files.
4. Put the File "RegistrySetString.exe" in the "BatteryStatus" folder"
5. Now decide which skin you wantut the bluephone.xml and the folder "bluephone" into the Batterystatus or do the same with greyphone.xml and folder or with Taskbar and Tasbar.xml (u can also put all folders in)
6. Now hold on clicking with stylus on the plugin and choose all rows for showing and choose "lock" rows. AND DONT forget that your new BS-Taskmanager is enable !!!! And choose your SKIN !!!
7. Now you have to do some changes because this is for german version of windows: open the xml u use with your windows editor on your PC or with totalcommander on your ppc:
7.1 you find in the middle a path for: programme\smartutilities_filesonly, change it to program files\....
7.2 you find at the end a path for: "\windows\tmail.exe...." there you see "freenet.de": You can replace this with your own email account. then you can read "Posteingang": replace just this for the english version with "inbox".
7.3 you find there a row with the date like this one - text="dddd, d. MMMM yyyy"- you can change this because this is the european version of date (see picture)
then save the xml file and put it back to your ppc.
- thats it.
- if you like it crazy made more funny sound graphics for you. You find them in "othergraphics", just replace the originals in the Bluephone or Greyphone-folder with them. The wifi/bluetooth icons are with german or english text (on/off-an/aus). Replace them as you like.
- the tabs at the bottom are not part of this, you can find them in my iconthread for Ultimatelaunch.
- FOR THE OKAY BUTTON you must sometimes press your Hardware OK button ! (will find a Solution)
- VGA and Landscape-view dont work. This is just tested with wm 6.0 but should run with wm5
Looks awesome! I'll try it now!
thanks you for your share ;D
Thanx for sharing....nice refreshment for today screen!!
hey very nice!!!....I wonder....is it possible to get the big transparent x button as a stand alone?...I feel like if we could this would enhance a lot of peoples touchscreen experience....let us know!!
mmh, the button you see is a icon that just links to a program called tasklist.exe. This is a part of Batterstatus. It only runnes, i think, if batterystatus is running. So i understand your wish (because it was my wish too) but it wont work without batterystatus.
If you want only my taskbar, i can make you a xml file just with the taskbar.
cool stuff I like the idea and the way you created it
but can you (or someone) make a copy of the iphone taksbar? just the taskbar, not the "desktop" stuff
Is the Smart Utilities the same as this one?This one is already a cab. Could make things easier
(nevermind sry...)
Great looking taskbar created!
Thank you!!!
This is what I was looking for, thanks a lot!!
Downloading now!
bluemetalaxe, congrats, U R really crazy, dude
Nice work, though
Olioaglio
everything looks like promised.
nothing works. not the mute (the "mute" progy doesn't work) not bt 'cose there is no registry key_value="HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Bluetooth" on my phone (maybe 'cose is wm 6.1 ?), not messages. the icon doesn't appear anywhere !
tried to uninstalled it by reversing the steps to install it.
everything went back except the hated windows taskbars and of course i am missing now all the info and settings they were ment for.
i think i'll have to restore a relatively old back-up
suggestions?
[later] got back the wm taskbars. forgot to delete the vjtoggletoday progy. everything back to "normal".
interesting is that the tray launch with the "original" battery status theme, is working. what are the shortcuts to bt and wifi??? didn't you use the same in yr .xlm file?
great work... hopefully there will be more battery themes you can share with us
also how did you make the top bar smaller?
Can you make the bottom tabs part of the same theme? And can I get that headphones grey background?
This looks very cool. Will try it .

as it turns out I do use Batterystatus so yes thank you very much!!...your work here is quite nice....is the clock BS as well?
@tomoffel: If i find time i will try original iphone taskbar. then you have just to repalace the new iphone.xml with the bluephone and some graphics, thats it.
@Vukile: if you install smartUtilities und you find there muteonoff then this will work also. If not, put just my muteonoff in this new folder. you find the backgroundgraphics in your bluephone-folder (take the first 35 pixel of the head1.png= 35x50).
@nothin: i wont buy a iphone cause i cant do such things with that and i have gps and umts on my Polaris And why should WM always look ugly and not be userfriendly, do you use still Windows 95 on your PC ?
@Kukuriku: I`m sorry, tested it on touchcruise wm 6.0 and not on not existing OS There could be trouble with the working of wifi/bluetooth buttons because the registry values depend on wm or some phones.
UNINSTALL IS VERY EASY: Delete vjtoggletoday from your windows startfolder, uninstall Batterystatus, delete the folder with muteonoff.exe. Softreset, thats it.
Cant say anything to BS Traylaunches because i dont use Traylaunch.
@character: can make more themes (a question of time). The topbar is just my graphic with icons and text on it (see in the Bluephonefolder). The original Taskbar is hided by vjtgooles tool. I/You can make it smaler, bigger whatever i want.
@wyzepro: its all just one BS theme/plugin nothing more. The theme has 4 rows (see in the xml file how it works): 1. Taskbar 2. Sound and Clock 3. Date 4.Buttons. I can delete or add rows and buttons as i want.
The tabs at the buttom are part of my Ultimatelaunch theme. I can make them a part of Batterystatus, so that they just open Software,Settings, Internet, Wheater-Program. But everyone has differnt software, or wants to open specific things with that icons, maybe i write a .xml with that and you have to change the xml with links to your software.
EDIT: I sorry, just found a bug im my latest .xml with the Text on the battery-icon. The new .xml will come tonight.
I've cacked open the xml....which files do I delete in order to obtain the large X button you have?
Im sorry dont understand what you want, do you want just the x button and nothing more ? But then you need the original taskbar and will have two x buttons ?

Can sk shortcut manager change the icons of spb ms3 launcher?
Icon Size
Is there a way to get bigger icons?
I tried to enlarge them with psp and replace them with reshack.
That doesnt work. The icons stay small.
In MS3 bigger icons would look better to me.
Maybe that is a setting MS3?
Eric
HI,
Can anybody explain to me how I can change the Icons on my Omnia using the SK Shortcut Manager and the dlls from the first post?
How can I assign them to a certain icon or is this just automatically assigned by choosing the dll file in SK Shortcut Manager?
Many THX!

I use WinCE cab manager to add/remove image files in the theme
but every theme has a ".tsk" file that determines the background, top bar, bottom bar colors, and sizing of tabs..etc
my question is how to edit the TSK file.. i used ThemeGenCE before with WM 6.1 but when i use it now with WM 6.5 i am able to change the background but all other stuff gets messed up
any theme editor for TSK files that work with 6.5?? (keeping top & bottom bar untouched?)
Thanks
Yeah, double-click the TSK, man!

Changing Startmenu Items with program?

Hello,
I'm searching for a solution to edit or remove items from the startmenu wich are not listed in the /Windows/Start Menu folder.
Is there a software wich can remove or rearrange these items?
The following informations may be inportant:
Phone: HTC Topaz
ROM: NullPointer EvO v3.5
ROMVersion: Topaz S2 2.53.407.6
OS: 23569
Sense: 2.5.20161332.0
I hope there is a solution for this issue, because there are some items I don't need..
Greetz Nightskill
What things are not appearing in that folder?
That are items of programs wich are baked into the ROM manually.
Like the Office Items, Teeter and Solitaire. Such stuff.
I only want to remove the Item from the startmenu. I don't want to remove the programm completely. It's only for overview. I only need programs I want to use in this menu.
Try this:
http://www.myblackjack2.com/hacks-and-mods/application-unlockers/sda-application-unlocker/
Its incompatible(apparently) with some forms of the blackjack 2, so it might not work, but who knows
