Don't want the hexagon style start menu! How to change this? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

I know it's in the cpr files, but when i tried to change them, the start menu didn't work at all. I want 4 icons besides each other and 4 colums. It should be possible, but I don't know how.

Something like this?

Thanks, but this isn't what I'm searching for as this is a program which has to be opened each time and slows the phone. Despite this I'd like to have 4 columns, not 5.

This might be what you are looking for http://www.wmskins.com/thumbnails.php?album=35

I also would love this, will make a request over there. They don't have it exactly, just want (if I am reading the posts correctly) 4 icons across by however many down in a square grid, not honeycomb. Just looks silly esp. now don't have the honeycomb grid behind to give it structure.

the good news is, you can undo this. delete the one in your windows folder, by using a different explorer like Resco or Total Commander. or if you still have one that you haven't touched yet, put it back and reboot.
follow these steps, for editing the bronzeres.dll:
1. use unsigner
2. edit with reshacker or PE explorer
3. use siggner
4. replace and reboot

ok, i tried with your png's and it went fine for me. make sure it's not marked as a read-only, (right click>properties) that might be why it's not working... or if you'd like i can do it for you? just upload your .dll.

Change Apps in Home Screen Bottom Dock

On my captivate there are four apps on the bottom of all home screens: Phone, Email, Browser, and Apps.
Any way I can change it? It doesnt seem to be accessible/customizable.
I havent found a way yet either....so doesn't seem possible.
Sent from my Samsung Captivate(tm) on AT&T

Yep, I figured it out. Follow this:
1. From the Home screen select "Applications"
2. Menu> View Type> Customizable Grid
3. Menu> Edit
You can now slide any App down to the bottom dock. You can even change it back to "Alphabetical Grid" and it will still save the Apps on the dock.
thank you sir!

Is anyone having success with Launcher Pro replacing touchwhiz?
I really prefer launcher pro over touchwiz. Are you asking how to change the buttons on the dock in launcher pro? If so, just hold down one of the little +'s until the menu opens up and go from there.
on a related note, is there a way to remove the different pre-loaded AT&T applications from the phone? there are a number that seem useless given other apps out there that do the same thing but better, but i canĀ“t seem to figure out how to delete them.
keep your finger on the icon you want to move a second longer than normal (if you have your phone on vibrate, it will buzz) then you can move them around the screen as many or as much as you like. You can also drag them into a bin which will appear in the bottom of the screen. This action doesn't delete the app or icon, it just reappears in the apps page. Very easy but took me ages to work it out. So simple. Have fun

Finding out the Android App processes???

Hey, I'm trying to change some icons on a theme and I need to know the android processes name for apps downloaded from the market and what not.
Where can I find that or see that??
For example, the icon name for maps is: com.google.android.apps.maps.png
I just take another icon and rename it that and bingo I have a new icon.
I was wondering if you guys could tell me where I can see the processes for all the apps I have???
I would really appreciate it!
Theming-wise I'm not sure, but maybe this will help?

Hmm, I didn't really find what I'm looking for there.
I'm not doing anything with theming really. I just want to change and add some different icons for a few apps.
I just need to know a way to find out the process name of the .png images!
*EDIT*
I got it all figured out.

Grab and icon and hold it on the right side of your right most page. It will create a new one.

They are actually unlimited. You can add as many as you like with the same method.

Install a custom launcher like Nova, Apex etc etc and you`ll have more homescreens. more options and also nicer and smaller icons if you want (Play Store).

You could create folders and have them at the bottom of the display...
But if what you want is more stand alone apps at the bottom check with another launcher ....

Thank you, its not what I was thinking about but its working for me in a similar way.
