Friends,
I have been testing different roms and I really enjoy ROMEOS rom but also like RRE HTC's too. IMO, ROMEOS runs a faster at boot time and on specific applications.
I noticed that both chefs changed the icons at the top of the title bar and in the folders. Where do these icons exist in the windows dir, is there a folder?
I like to use the icon set for RRE HTC's rom for ROMEOS.
These are the two listed in RRE rom - but I am not sure of the program or how to convert them. Can I just drag drop and over-right?
• Custom Top Bar Icons by massi959
• Custom folder Icons
Please advise,
Thank You,

I am going through and replacing the ugly default icons. JWMD doesn't see some of them, even after scanning and registering the ones that aren't registered. Games, programs in subfolders, the HTC wifi apps, and the system and settings icons are not displayed. I wish to replace these, but since JWMD doesn't see them, I don't really know how.
Also, how does one change the icons in the taskbar? I'm using Hart's 6.5 rom on an omnia...
And, does anyone know of any good iphone like icons for zsirc and putty? I'm not going for an iphone theme, but I like how the icons are all nice, big, smooth, and round.
You can change the Start Menu icons through the registry, which is explained on the Windows Phone Blog.
I know how to do that, I'm talking about chaging icons for apps that are not in the startmenu...they're in startmenu folders, and then there are the settings icons as well.

Had a little extra time on my hands and decided to make a couple of clocks for manila 2.5. First of all thanx to the creator of CFC GUI .60.35 - THE Manila/TF3D Image Editor and NRGZ28 for his carbon clock. I went ahead and made two variations of the carbon clock, a black carbon and blue carbon.
Here they are....
11/23/09 - Graffiti Clock
Really nice, but for what manila version are those clocks?
Since you see the shortcuts on the home page I guess it's the 2.5 brand.
That's looking real good!
I see that's winmo 6.5.1 that you are running, but what about the rest of the UI? that's a theme? It seems that the fonts and shortcuts down there are different.
What did you use to that effect?
Thanks!
Thanks! iam using the jw black theme for windows. the task bar i found while searching through the forums. And the shortcuts are from the manila 2.5. I just went ahead and edited the slider, icons, and clock. Still got some work to do before I completely customized my device!
[edit] nevermind! a search on jw black theme gave me a good result but! the wallpaper is real nice, any chance you could give more info on it? Thanks!
Looks real good, especially the 3rd one.
I am using the clock, but would like to get all the rest (at least the wallpaper and font).
Any chance you can be more specific about files names or maybe you could share what you created? That would be really great
THANKs .
not a problem, iam using the kabel system font, found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532633
and ive attached the wallpaper iam using.
as for the slider ill post that one as soon as iam done editing it. iam compiling icons that coincide with windows mobile (i.e. opera for the internet tab, zune for the music player, outlook express for email tab and so forth) it should be done soon, just editing the taskbar and softkey skins to match the slider.
Thank you for all the info
And for your hard work!
Cheers
any chance in making the "AM~PM" on the clock white also?
yeah new clock for my sense 2.5
Thanks a lot have been looking for a new clock for my sense 2.5 long time and yeah yours works.
Nice look these clocks!
here are the manila files for a white am and pm on the clock. just unzip and copy to windows directory.
any tutorial
Hi bruc410,
could you provide me a short tutorial how to make a clock skin for Manila 2.5?
or is there any tutorial in this forum?
Thanks!
You need photoshop, a manila editor (preferably cfc-gui-only-0.60.35), and finally the original manila 2.5 file, found here http://code.google.com/p/manilavga/...ManilaOriginalWVGA-2_5_19211619_0.7z&can=2&q=. All you have to do is unzip the manila files and then open up manila editor and select the core folder from your manila 2.5 file. From there just save the original clock files to your computer as a png then edit them to your liking and replace them with the manila editor. Finally copy the edited manila files to your windows directory. Thats about it. Sorry if my directions are a little thrown together but i pretty much figured this out on my own. The good thing is once you get the hang of it you can customize the entire manila 2.5. Hope this answers your question.

Hi, I'm running Dutty's 2.5 Leo HG R0 on my Topaz and have started to look at skinning the taskbar icons, however my HTCVolumeControl.dll doesn't contain any icon resources, in fact it contains nothing, whereas older DLL's that are available in these forums have the 3 icons I need to skin, I've tried using them but the older DLL's cause bugs with other parts of Manilla.
I've found the 3 sound icons in the shellres.192.dll & Leo_phcanOverbmp.dll and have replaced them, however when I copy the dll's back over to the phone and soft reset I get the new icon(s) appearing for about 5-10 seconds but are then replaced with the stnadard white icons while Sense 2.5 is loaded on top on WinMo, I can't for the life of me find another dll resource with the volume icons to update
I've also tried changing the registry value: HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\LoadIconFromResDLL to 1 with a soft reset but it hasn't worked
Am I missing something?, where are the 3 volume icons I need to replace if they aren't in the HTCVolumeControl.dll and the shellres.192.dll ones are being superseded when Sense loads
Please help it's driving me mad
I have been working on a black and gray them form manila 2.1. (at&t pure) I have also altered the windows grapics (i.e. highlights and buttons) to match. After much searching I was able to fine every file and edit witht the exception of the separator bars for the 4 day weather (they are still blue). I have searched through all manila files with CFC multiple times and have started believing it is not here but yet it continues to stare at me as blue on a black background. Is it not a graphic file? I would like to post this as a theme (including windows graphic mods) and possibly make cab files but it feels so incomplete. I appreciate any help in locating this annoying blue separator bar so I can finish this project.
