how to change the taskbar? - TG01 Themes and Apps

how can i change the taskbar icons on the TG01? this is the pannel at the top with the battery, time and etc.
thanks

Why not just try "Search"? With keywords like WM6.5, taskbar, themes, wvga... you might get upon interesting ones.

ady_uaic - I am looking at the screenshot on the link with interest - esp the task bar icons - can you please advise where those have come from ? Am I right in thinking is Wisbar Advance (or similar) or is there another app somewhere to achieve that look ?
Many thanks,

can you get the taskbar that is similar to the espresso theme working on the sense 2.5

Alternate status icons?

I've seen a variety of screenshots of HD2s with alternate status icons (like the ones shown in this post's screenshots: forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4871358). I've searched and searched and I can't find out how to customize these from the standard, simple, ugly white stock ones. Any tips appreciated!
Thanks!

Can anyone point me in the right direction for these?
Thanks,

You can either continue to search for somebody that has done it and released the files. Or you can start looking into modding the manila files yourself to what you want. The files are not unique to the Leo any WinMo 6.5 notification icons will work.
Thanks for the info. I'm brand new to Windows Mobile and the HD2 so I'm not sure I'm up for trying to make my own mods yet. I'm trying to learn from what others have done and then hopefully be able to give back later.
So, are these things typically referred to as 'notification icons'? I found some custom packages under that name, but they all seemed to be the big icons for the programs, not the little status icons. I couldn't tell though whether those packages would include both the big icons and the small status icons or not. Any idea?
Thanks,

To get these icons first you need to install Maxmanilla. search the thread for maxmanilla and after that you can choose your icons for notifications.
Notification Icons
Install max manilla and then you can change the default notification by the one I have attached or to any icon you want. Search for the icons on net. A few icons are attached which I use.

Thanks for the tips and guidance! I really appreciate the help. However, I'm not looking for the big icons for the various programs, I'm looking for the little status icons at the top of the display (signal strength, wireless connected, bluetooth, headset, etc). The ones on the T-Mo HD2 are just the basic white 'line drawing' ones from HTC. I've seen some screenshots here (like in the like I posted above) where these little icons are very nice, rich, colorful, almost 3D looking. Those are the ones I'm trying to find. Does MaxManilla have those too?
Thanks!

Ah Sorry, I thought you are talking about notification icons. The icons which you are referring are part of taskbar. first you need to check your windows version If you are still on the stock rom or installed a coocked rom 6.5 then search for taskbar 6.5. If you are on 6.5.x then search for taskbar 6.5.x
A lot of customization links are included in the below thread. just search for taskbar for your version.

Awesome! That's what I was looking for. I was searching for 'status icons' since that's how HTC refers to them in the manual. Didn't think that was called the taskbar.
Thanks again!

App to change icons on Taskbar into buttons

Hi all, I saw this screenshot in one of apps on here. I tried search but couldn't find the info, what apps do I use to change the icons on the taskbar to be buttons like this screenshot?
http://www.imgboot.com/image.php?u=Co0kieMonster&i=screen01.jpg
That's a taskbar modification called Mystic Genius, and can be found in the following thread, along with a ton of great stuff, including icon sets and other taskbar mods (gotta scroll down a bit).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=639002
It's a touch problematic for some, I've read! Also, for WinMo 6.5.x I think you'll need to do some registry tweaks or else the "speaker/volume" icon won't show up! Good luck!
or try this:

new toggles. How?
Does anybody know how to create new toggles for CHT? There is this little switch for turning on/off the auto-backlight feature. I like this switch on my hometab as a CHT toggle. Is that possible?
Top and Bottom task bar
Hi there,
Could you please tell me where you got yout top and bottom task bar icons from?
I have been searching for the exact sme for weeks and can't find anything.
If you can post a link or the cabs that would be great. By the look of the start icon, I assume it is WM 6.5 compatible?
Thanks heaps.
Great work!
These are brill, i couldnt believe they changed all my toggles into wonderful glossy blue to go with my blue theme, just what i needed. THANK YOU!!
What icons have you used for the top task bar?
They look fantastic and I would like to use them. Thanks.

I think that's not possible for now, since CHT doesn't provide such toggle for the auto backlight yet..

When you have installed this go to:
Menu--->Cookies Home Tab Editor--->Misscelaneous Settings---->Wallpaper mod and set it to HQ Wallpaper.
After do this tab Menu---->Set wallpaper--->choose a pic (the pics must be 480x800)
Same for the Top and Bottom bar.
Tab Menu--->Set Wallpaper--->Skin Taskbar and Softkeybar.
When you should have a different between the Bars and the background Pic you must do this.
If you want to disable the WM6.5.x specific wallpaper position, goto HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila and set Co0kie.WinMo6.5.x to 0 and restart sense.
Hope this help!
Thanks. I have the latest version of CHT already and I know about the taskbar and softkey bar being transparent but what I was talking about was making the HTC Sense Slider Bar transparent (not the actual slider itself but the bar behind the slider).

I think it should make only the Slider Background transperent! But i will have a look in the files maybe i can say more than.
I think you can use it with your slider! I had a look on it and can only find background files! The best way is to test it.
Thank you Dic3ptor for the cab and it did the trick but....... you can't see the icons on the Elegancia Manbo V Slider now. Any ideas?

PLS add a screenshot! So that i can have a look on it. It s easier for me to change it when i see it!
Sorry for not posting a pic yet but the only hosting site I use is Facebook and I need to set one up for photobucket or something. Whats happening is that the actual slider that goes over the icons doesnt show the icon inside the slider/square box when you go over it. For an example, when you slide to the home screen and let go, you will see the house picture inside the little slider/selector box but on my screen the icon does not show inside the slider box
OKay now i understand what you mean! I will have a look on what i can do for you!
As soon i have a solution for it i will post it here.

[Q] SOLVED - cant load new icons on quicklinks

Ok so i installed JWMD Icon changer and successfully changed the original icons with some glossy ones. These glossy icons now appear on the start menu HOWEVER when I try to load them into my quicklink bars on the today screen the old icons appear and not the new glossy ones!!!
Well apart from the messages icon.... that one loads ups glossy in the quck link bar. but thats the only one.
Any reason why? or am I doing anything wrong?
Im using CHT to load the icons into the quicklink. See my signature below for my phone stats
