i think the icons size is 48 by 48 or 72 by 72, im not really sure.. but i would make the height whatever the right size is so it doesnt make it look out of proportion, but im not very great with graphics
i kinda like this one though

photoshop. The image needs to be square.
There's a whole lot of EVO icons out there. To find the one I wanted I just Google imaged it for 'htc evo.png or evo.png or evo 4g.png. I find the one I want and if I don't find anything I like I create it.

Thanks very much, I used iconverticons.com to change it to a .png to use it on my dock!
I thought I'd share this with you guys.. First off, tnx for the pics (making OR finding and posting here), even though as some said they might be available elsewhere, it's nice to have stuff categorized and placed under a thread somewhere that is applicable to an actual use. And that's why I'm here.. I've a nugget of wisdom to share with ya, inspired to post by reading a recent post about making an icon on his desktop for when the evo is connected.
There's no need for that! The Evo can act just as any Flash/USB device! I was going to post an image, but because I'm new, it won't let me. I'll post the link and maybe a moderator will edit my post and enable/set it to be viewed instead of just clicked on...

To do this, you need to do a couple simple steps.
Fist, use "The Gimp" of your graphic editing tool of choice and open any of the png files in this post, and save as an icon (in Gimp it's as simple as 'save as', and replace png with ico, it'll detect what format you want to use..).
Once you have the .ico file, connect your evo and set it to drive mode. Copy over the icon file to the "root"/main folder (not a rooted phone, just mean the top directory the one all folders are in, nothing fancy/hacked/custom necessary).
Once you've done that, create a new file and call it "autorun.inf". In there, paste the following:
Code:
[autorun]
label=EVO 4G
icon=evo2.ico
Label will of course label the device whatever you want.. icon is the name of the icon you want to have displayed. Autorun.inf file goes to the main folder of the phone as well.
Disconnect (or cycle the mode to charge only, wait for the sd to reinitialize) and then reconnect as a drive once again. You should see your icon and device name/label neatly in place (Note as you can see from my image, this works on all media... I've an icon of my camera on my camera memory, and just about a matching image of every one of my flash drives (just missing one, which is miscolored). Makes it easy and professional to use, and adds a little bling factor to your evo.. If you're all that, you could even take a new pic of your phone so the icon matches whatever wallpaper you use
DO NOTE. There are rules.. Depending on what OS you use.. Sizes must be the same, IE 128x128, or 48x48, NOT 32x48 as one of the png's is.. If that's the case, you'll need to make adjustments to either change the canvas size or cut/paste the actual phone into a newer properly sized image.. The one I used in the example worked flawlessly with simply a png-2-ico "convert" (again, save as .ico)
Hope this help and inspires ya'll out there!

Hi, thanks for the detailed instructions. I've got the phone loading an icns icon on my mac but in trying to get it to work on a PC I followed your directions, however, when I eject the phone and then reconnect it to the PC, the 'autorun.inf' file that I created is gone, the .ico file is there, but not the .inf file, so basically the icon won't show up, it just looks like a regular removable drive icon. Any ideas on why that might be? Thanks.

What is this?
This is a morph that will make the unlock images transparent.
Why?
Personally, I think the lockscreen looks cleaner without the little tabs on the side or if you follow Mikey's way of thinking that if someone doesn't know how to unlock your phone, then they can't see what is on it (or something to that effect).
No, not that why. Why the name!?!
I have a twisted sense of humor, and the name makes me lol.
Download(s)
Morph
-Recommended Version to use since it will not overwrite any theme/mod previously done to framework-res.apk-
-Apply with MetaMorph-
http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/Pervert_Power.zip
Update.zip Format
-Should only be used with stock ROMs since it will overwrite everything in framework-res.apk with stock images except for the images in the morph above. Also, it will take more time for me to remember to update the update.zip's. This should only be used if you can't get metamorph working or don't want to use it.

Disclaimer
I do not admit to being able to protect the horribly perverted things you keep on your phone. Mainly this is just to give you that false sense of security and feeling that you can leave your phone on a table for five seconds while you look in another direction without intense fear of someone finding out all your horrible secrets. Also, if this wrecks either your phone or your life or some odd possibility of a combination of the two, then I take no responsibility, but please do share with the rest of us because I do enjoy a good laugh.
very nice bro.
I have been using transparent jog dials with the buttons. I also think it looks clean, and really shows off the live wallpapers.
Question: Do you think it's possible to make the jog dials, transparent, but with like wire frame outlines?

Should be easy enough since it is just images. I can try and play around with it some tomorrow (or well I guess it would be today, but I don't consider it a new day until I wake up).

cool transparent.... even now someone still doesnt know how to unlock it...
Used to do this with my iPhone and even iPhone users couldn't unlock it lol!
I might make just the unlock transparent and have the Sound On/Off slider visible if that's possable..
Thank you buddy
Nice work again. Thanks
hey pervert does this hack leave the green and red colors so when i try to slide unlock i can see where the buttons would be?
Dont want to install it to find not and have to restore rom and redo everything thanks.
Look at the screenshot, that's how your LOCKSCREEN will look prior to sliding/unlock your phone

This is good stuff. I like the little bit of haptic that lets you know you're on base to unlock without having to see anything. Now to make all of the icons transparent too. I know my layout damnit.
I did some more digging and not exactly sure what your hack is doing .. i got ahold of my framework-res.apk and extracted the .pngs
at least to me it appears that to give an non shown lock screen i would only need to make
indicator_code_lock_point_area_default.png
and jog_dial_dimple_dim.png
transparent..
but you did not change either of these icons (what am i missing)
thanks
This seems awesome man. Wish I could use it. . . I always seem to have metamorph issues.
Didn't think it would be this popular lol.

The indicator_code_xxxxxx.png images are for if you have a unlock code set. Otherwise, you will not see them. The jog_dial_xxxxx.png images are for the lockscreen images for when 2.0 first came out and there was an arc to unlock instead of the tab on the side.
If you want to leave the buttons and the little dots that appear when you drag the tabs then open the morph with 7-zip/winrar (or something else where you don't have to un-zip it to access it) and delete the following from it.
Buttons:
ic_jog_dial_sound_off.png
ic_jog_dial_sound_on.png
ic_jog_dial_unlock.png
Dots:
jog_tab_target_yellow.png
jog_tab_target_red.png
jog_tab_target_green.png
jog_tab_target_gray.png
@anyone_who_may_read_this_with_source/xml_knowledge:
What .xml or .java file would I need to modify to get rid of the unlock/sound on/sound off text when sliding it across. I don't think it is an .xml because I looked through those on github and none I saw made a reference to any specific text (and I edited them first to no avail lol)?

I added flashable versions, but if you have a theme or anything applied, then it will overwrite framework-res.apk and do away with a majority of that theme.

I glanced at it in hex, but didn't think to look at source since I was about to go to sleep when I posted this. Thanks for reminding me, I'll go look now and see if I can find anything.
ok thanks for the info.
i am trying to do something different..
ie have a transparent lock screen when you have the lock code.. ie no 3 rows of dots on the screen etc.., but leave alll the crap when you actually slide to unlock.
so i change the two files i mentioned
ie
C:\none\hack>unzip -v clear_lock.zip

and it semi works.. the locked screen has the black areas around the dots gone ie *the code lock paint file" but for some reason the center is still there which should be transparent in the jog dial dimple dim file..
anyone care to look at it and see if you can find the problem.
i am applying the patch to cyanogen 5.0.5.3 with metamorph
thanks in advance
I downloaded and tried installing the Morph and would not install i get an error saying "The theme you selected was invalid because the theme control file could not be read or may be missing" Its been awhile since i've used morph but i just downloaded the file to the root of my sd and ran morph to apply it.
I suck at photoshop and this is the best I can do. I'd like to have decent icon for the EVO I can find icons for the nexus and droid but nothing for the evo.

Whatever you feel like to be honest. I would like to see an icon for the EVO. When I search Nexus/Droids/iPhones
you can easily make an icon from this PSD. just resize to whatever size you want

It's all a mock-up.
Good idea, I think you wanted to make an icon for when you see the EVO in file explorer? If not that's the idea I got out of this and did it.
So when you open file explorer (Windows only) you will see the icon and name of the phone like in the attached picture.
I put the files here for anyone else that might want it.
Unzip the attached zip file to the root (main part of the SD card not in a folder).
There's only two files, one is the .ico file mikevillarroel made (thanks)
the other is a .inf that tells Windows what to show, you can open this in notepad to make sure its safe.

Cheer up. Macs are faster and reliable. Unfortunately they're (the devs who make the apps) aren't.
Also might i suggest, download an app like "SyncMate" kinda like HTC sync for windows. And to get a custom icon, I used "Candy Bar" on my mac.
Look at all these phone icons! Not one for the EVO
http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=§ion=&q=phone+icon
I resized the canvas and the icon isn't warped anymore
So I've had a few people asking how I did this so I decided to make a little tutorial.

This will NOT change the color of your status bar. This will only add a transparent background to the drop down bar and place the Droid on the bottom right corner.
***Make sure USB Debugging is checked under Settings>Application>Development***
Here's how it's done:
1. Download & install Stericson's NinjaMorph from the Market
2. Place your desired Droid image on your SDcard and rename it to status_bar_background.png (doesn't matter where you put it)
3. Launch NinjaMorph and click tap on New Project
4. Go to /system/framework/framework-res.apk (Files will get extracted and a backup is created automatically)
5. Go into /res/drawable-hdpi and find status_bar_background.png
6. Tap on the file and it will now ask you to find the image you want to replace it with
7. Find the file you placed on your SDcard and tap on it
8. You will get a warning asking if you're really sure you want to replace it (Tap Yes)
9. Tap on the blue arrow on the bottom right corner
10. Tap on Finish Project
11. Tap on framework-resapk (NinjaMorph will now package/create the apk)
12. You will get a warning asking if you're sure you want to overwrite the apk (Tap Yes)
13. You will now get a warning asking if you want to zipalign (I chose no)
14. Tap ok on the next warning
15. Choose if you want to delete the project
Your phone should now reboot automatically and you should have your new Droid on your drop down notification bar that looks like this.

So I'm trying to learn a little about themeing here (use to do BBs back in the day) and am taking baby steps I used this mod for a little while and decided to try to make it a lil more personal so I added my name. When pushed to my device it repeated the image over and over again as if to small... So I resized 480x770 and this is what I get, what am I doing wrong? It's supposed just like the original here just with Cadillac script beside it at the bottom...

So CoOkie developed this amazing new layer at my request and hid it in the registry settings of the new and EFFING AMAZING CHT2.0 setup.. .
Now you have seen some of the neat stuff we have been trying to do with CHTS (scheduler) but this is something different.. and well.. simple..
But can have unlimited potential.. and can do all the crazy **** your mother warned you about...
Ok .. maybe not .. but it CAN do some really cool stuff.
Its Called "ForeLayer" and its exactly what it sounds like.. its a layer placed almost as high up onto the layers of the phone as possible.. skinning over the top of everything BUT the taskbar and CHT2 slider.
But the cool part? It has ZERO click interruption!! So you could lets say .. put some fish floating in the middle of your screen.. that will stay there on top of your icons , clock, ect.. but NOT interfere with click or swypability.
________________________________________________________
So here is a thread for all of us playing with this to post your own
Please include 2 files.. one on top of a wallpaper.. and the .png file itself.
Remember.. you can save them as anything you want.. but for them to load into the phone it must be placed into the appropriate folder and named ForeLayer.png then the phone has to be soft reset...
_______________________________________________________
Lets get busy and make some cool stuff and pack a thread full of window blinds into our phones.

Here is the RegEdit Cab thanks to Kurt (since i am an absolute moron when it comes to cabbing registry files apparently, and i was making people use regedit and assign values..)
Well... he made it a super simple .cab and after its installed.. all you have to do is drop your new files into the folder.. rename is appropriately and reset.
We included 3 of the first ones i built. The Fish , Broken Screen (*looks REALLY effin real) and Water.. lol... Have Fun.
Ps Only supports 480x800 for now.. it will sit on top of 960 and 1440 but the file itself must be 480.

using the cab file the forelayers are now in the phone root in a folder called "ForeLayer"

Foreword:
Okay, I have been thinking about this fore about two day's!
Reason, I would create something that let you easily changed the ForeLayer between your collection.
After two day's of thinking and 8H to fining out way it would work in the first place finally I have found it!
Like Albert Einstein; I didn't fail 100 times, I just found 100 ways how it didn't work
Just download the cab file and you can begin
Instruction guide; Image gives more information than text:
After selection this application will do automatic a manila reset so nothing to do fore you!
PS: I have think about it, if you will you can translate this aplication to your language.
Instructions: Download the "StringsFL.zip" File. Extract it you will discover the "StringsFL.ini" file; and translate the text!
Only the text I mention here below in blue!!!
Save your "StringsFL.ini" File and set it in the \Windows folder in your device.
Pleas let me know your opinion; Okay it is my first time I make this so there is always place fore improvement.

Speaking of stalkers.. i like your new couch
this is almost better than the live wallpaper, and I say that because there is no battery drain with this creative idea.. fresh, i like it!!
damn why does this kinda goodness always happen when im asleep
better get busy after work.......
how do i switch out the wallpapers. im lost. it installed the broken glass, i want the tank
go to the forelayer folder on your storage card and rename forelayer.png to forelayerglass
then rename forelayerfish or tank to forelayer and softreset
my attempt
so I downloaded a program called GIMP. look what I made. oh and my forelayer folder is in my phones internal memory not the sd card.

So can this be animated? I am thinking Live Wallpaper here. Fish swimming over everything - and being unclickable it's not going to interfere with anything else. This is a great feature.

First you need to have/install CHT 2.0.0 Beta + (Recommended) CHTEditor 2.0.0.
After installation of this two, you simply install the cab posted on the first post; => soft reset, the broken glass is pre loaded. fore changing the image file you need to go into the ForeLayer folder, rename the file or edit the reg key.
But on that latest I will start to get work fore making a more easy switch.
Awesome! This may actually get me to give CHT 2.0 another chance!

Yeah animated gif maybe would be cool. Also I noticed it does not skin upto the task bar for example the broken glass. It cuts off meaning it doesn't reach the top. Is there any way to make it go all the way to tha task bar? But it still very cool by the way!
I posted a query last year regarding this . If you guys would remember , there was a dog in the earlier desktop windows versions of early 90's . This little rascal would eat up the screen and even dig holes. Worked as a kind of a screensaver.. Now since the work seems to be done here.... any clues as to how to get him on mobile.
Anyone know where to get or willing to make a set of icons like these?

this is the white version with a little photoshop editing you should pretty easily be able to get a PSD template to use to make your own in what ever color you want. If you truly dont know how to do this let me know and i will make you one real quick to make it easy to do your own
Nice, thank you.
I see they aren't standard android apps tho =(
I'll browse and see what I come up with. I appreciate the link !
**edit**
Yes, any help you can give would be great, I have never made icons and don't have any software for it. I'd like to give it a go tho so I can make some android icons out of these.
I made a quick Photoshop Template. I believe you can open it in GIMP as well (a free image editing software) You should be able to use it to create this effect simply by using the top layer template to make a selecting of the filled in area and then deleting that selection on the icon you want to use. This may seem confusing if you dont have a lot of experience but its pretty simple. I put 2 examples in it as well. Just remember to always save it as a .png if you want it to be an icon and keep the clear background.
If you still have problems PM me and i will try to write out a more in depth tutorial ( i use photoshop personally so I may have to download gimp and play around to get specific)

Thanks again, I'll google Gimp and see what I come up with. I'm really just after gmail and maps so I should be able to google Gimp and see what I come up with. I appreciate the help =)
No problem If those are the only two you want and dont figure it out I can just make them for you. I think you should try first as a good way to learn if you are interested in making icons in the future makes a great starting point for you.
Good Luck with it!

Yea, I'm playing with it now... prolly gonna take a while to figure it out lol.
I tried to save the pandora icon you sent but it became blurry and didn't look right for some reason
Would you mind making those 2 for me while I play with this? I'll just use yours in my set and try to figure out how to work gimp with them as well.
Where did it become blurry. I resized the img to 72 x 72 pixels which is the standard icon size so it is possible it looks blurry when blown up but should look fine as an icon on your phone. I will work on those 2 and get you them in a minute

I was playing with it in gimp, and I done something to mess it up. Just not sure what it was I did lol
ah well its all part of learning just dont save the PSD file while it is messed up. See attached for 2 different Gmails, a Maps and the pandora one. Sorry took so long am at work and had to finish something up. I also threw in the PSD with these new icons saved inside it as well as more examples.
Enjoy

I agree, they look really good on the phone up against the right kind of wallpaper.
I use ADW ex and delete the app name so it only shows the icon, works for me. I'll try to figure out how to make a full set, but this Gimp program is funky for me. =p
