There are two ways to change the ROM date being shown in Device Information. One is a simple registry hack (very easy) and the other one, not so simple, involves Hex edition of the kernel nk.exe. In this post i'll mention the steps to edit necessary registry values and the hex editing of the kernel in next post.
In order to change the ROMDate being shown in Device Informtion, follow this procedure:
1. Go to HKLM\Software\OEM
2. Create new 'String' value named 'ROMDate' (without quotes)
3. In date field type the date that u want e.g. 27-May-08
ROM date modfification by editing the kernel nk.exe
This method involves the HEX editing of kernel, nk.exe. editing incorrect bytes in any way may make the phone non-bootable. therefore be careful with your steps . softwares needed for this guide are:
1. Any hex editor
2. A disassembler (like IDA Pro)
I would like to thank cmonex for the guidance in ROM date modification using this method.

now thats a fine date i have.

Nah.. My fiancee is coming this weekend till end of year, so no XDA till 2nd Jan I'll miss you guys
But Ervius gave me an edited xip_out.bin. Haven't told me what he changed but will test it tonight and if it works then add to tutorials. He said he found something interesting in the Diamond nk.exe in IDA

Dear friends, many of you know of Rinku's Iconbar Plugin

Does anyone have an idea how to make the Iconbar background transparent so that the black does not disturb the 6.1 ROM that has no top bar under the icons??
i remeber i tried some time ago but with no luck...sorry
Wait, so you guys have had this working on the Vox before?

no absolutely no....for me.
you can use CAB installer
credits to someone else
someone tested it on VOX? maybe on 6.1 rom?
Does it work on vox with wm6.0 ?
I tried this, install and reboot : nothing appears

Does not work for me on Vox with Dr. Gonzo's WM6.1 ROM.
Roland
for me worked perfectly on shipped (1.34.407.1 / 1.23.166.1) by building custom rom, include the plugin
i never use cab-installer
try use the first version Iconbar_plugin without any Images...
(for me it work better then version2)
Follow the instructions in here (link) and it will work...the thing is it only works correctly in portrait mode, because that iconbar was made to the HTC Shadow...
I've followed the instructions to a T and still not able to get it working on the Vox, even in portrait mode. My icon bar will dissappear when making the change, but I'm not able to replace it.
I really don't know what you're doing wrong...I followed the instructions on the refered site, and as you can see on the pictures below, it's working on my Vox. The real issue is that it can't work in landscape AND portrait mode...it doesn't switch between modes automatically...when you add the code to the xml file, you choose if you want it in landscape or portrait...I have it in portrait, hence the icons a little bit shifted to the left.
One last thing: I then found an updated version, which has transparent background, and that possibility to choose between the screen modes (landscape or portrait) - (LINK)
maybe you could post your xml file?
Here it is: LINK
it worked !!! ThankYou!! just a thing......for me it as no transparency...it is black...

It's black because probably you are not using the version found in the modaco forum, in the link i said before. You have to copy the files contained in that zip file to the windows folder for it to work properly.

Hello, where can I obtain this theme with listed information in home screen (call missing,...)? Is it available for LG KS20 handset?
Regards
It worked flawlessy
I used the zip provided by the author in the first post of this page of the topic
Is there any success at attempt to use this hack with Windows Mobile 6.1 ? I am afraid I've been doing all the necessary steps but the top bar remains the same (eventhough I modified the theme xml file!! weird )

Actually it works fine!
Too bad the icons only show on the main screen and reverts back to the regular ones when doing a call
Hello,
Finally... It works.. I have ported the XIP en SYS part from the new diamond rom to the wizard. Still some work to do. Bluetooth/Wifi/Camera/ActiveSync everything works.
Some screen shots:
Uploaded a fixed very clean version. Most people wanted a clean version. There is nothing in it. Only ComMannager from the Diamond.
Pagepool = 4Mb. Can be changed with Wizard Service Tool (WST).
Fixes:
V1 Clean:
[+] .NetCF 3.5
[!] Fixed IRDA
[!] Fixed Contacts page
[!] Fixed Control panel broken links
[+] Diamond theme.
[+] Updated TouchFlo control panel item
[+] Enlarge Start Menu [can be disabled in TouchFLO control panel]

Two questions:

2) How did you get the dump?

old tools (G'Reloc and WMReloc) do not work with 21140/21159.

You are right. The wm6.5 tsk file is skinned to look transparent so if we use other tsk there is no transparent.

People, it now obviously that its true 6.5, I think... But it's realy importend that Alexx~ said: we havn't that bloody tools for relocate modules themselves - old ones CAN'T. So can't port...
I suggest to catch, the rom's author wharever he is, and ask what tools he've used... Or maybe someone knows?
he used manual reallocation
sorry for the ignorance...but this rom is supported by wizard?and how to flash???

Hello,
I tried to port to wizard but sucked at 3rd splash screen. When I replaced shell32.exe and shellres.dll, it worked fine but the graphic is worst.
Anyway, if I added chome, the device hangs after 2 - 3 sec at today screen.
Future thing I was unable to test because tomorrow I am releasing my next version of CR86 Touch HD and was very busy with its.
Best Regards
What's the matter with the close button ("x"). Is it drawed in MS Paint?
And, hell, the view is much worst then I thought...

I tried your cab and the manual way, but both are not working. I reseted my MDA compact V two times and also tried a different cab, made for Xperia.
My Start Menu still shows 3 rows, though there is an entry in the "startmenu_grid scene" that shows rows=4
Any Ideas?

I've got the same problem: tried the .cab and also copy and paste the two files to windows directory. Still have 3 rows....
My Rom is Udk R6 aswell, in german...
just installed it...and a I like it very much.
my question is, is it possible to change the background wallpaper. I have in all views the same wallpaper but now, after installing this cab, I have a different wallpaper for the menu...
Solution fpr 4/7 Row in Udk R6
just install the .cab from the first post of the page - for me it works fine

At this stage it is basically just an editor for the updater-script with highlighting, some validation (can double click on errors to jump to the lines that they occur on), intellisense, and insight (as pictured).
Loads and saves from script files or directly into Android update zip's
Download it and let me know what you think...
The reason I started on the updater-script part is because it will be phasing this for use in other bits in my kitchen.

Yea ... well isn't atm...
Will prob have alot of built in modules for the DHD in the future tho ... when it gets to that stage.. but ppl will be able to write their own as-well for their phone
Also plan to release some future versions of my ROM in this kitchen ... so that ppl can see how to use it and choose what components to cook into it
..that is prob a while off tho
Kris
Thanks for your work..
As far as I understand, this is just the kitchen for DHD. It does not have the ingredients for cooking (System, Driver, Kernel, apk.....) and the authors recommend it only as a first step
Thread close to avoid possible confusion.
@OP...please PM me when kitchen is complete so I can re-open thread. Keep up the good work tough
