Hi,
I know it's a bit late but I had this problem too and the workaround that I use is to force each quick link to pick up a png image as the icon.
* To do this you need to go to HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/Home using a reg editor
* Change "IconPath". Set the location to any image you want for each slot (they are numbered from 0-8)
* Restart manila and your new icons will be displayed. For high resolution, use 128px PNGs.
Hope that was helpful.

No, it's not true, I have changed the icon for Camera in Start Menu with Icon Changer but the icon in Manilla today didn't changed.

it is true but i forgot something, after changing start menu icons you should delete all files in \Application Data\HTC\ProgLauncher & reset.

Changing Icons?

Ive used icon changer to replace the standard icons. . all worked fine and love my new icons!!
only probs is that icon changer doesnt bring up a few more program like office mobile etc. . .
and when I try to place my twitter icon on the home screen it still brings up the old one. . even though ive cleared the cache and all other icons have worked. .. also when it shows you a list of programs to add to home screen the twitter one is the new one but adds as the old one. .
how can I change the remaining icons with registry editor and fix the twitter icon??
cheers guys!!

To get the new twitter Icon to work rename the twitter Icon u want to use
and then you change to the newly added with you icon changer.
Then it should work...

Go to MyDevice--->Application Data--->HTC--->Progluncher
and delete all files in that folder and soft reset. Try that.

Beyond Frustrated!!! Transparency Cabs!!!

I was told that if I copied over the Manila File 4f914e0d with one that was edited to make the text on my home screen, "CALENDAR" go away but it does not. Does anyone have a cab file for this. When I use cookie's tab to "show when relevant" the date and alarm pops up with a grayish background. Also my clock has clear borders around it!!! I'm trying to get rid of this crap so I can have and enjoy the background I like. I've been up since 9AM EST reading through several posts and installing and uninstalling cabs and manila files to no avail. I NEED HELP!!!!

You should check the stickies... and install transparency cabs for whatever item you want to have transparent.

Yea those two threads do nothing for me. There isn't a cab that removes the "text" 'Calendar' from the homescreen. There is one that removes it from the lockscreen. And there isn't a Cab that removes the "clear frames" from under my digital clock. Also I've noticed where people can edit the word "start" on the top curtain...how can I do this?

Clear frames from under the clock??? Are you talking about the background for the calendar/alarm on the home screen? That would be the first cab.
and the no start text cab is the 2nd one.
If this isnt what you are looking for, please give us a screen shot pointing to what you need.

OK do you
see how this image has frames around the digital clock
Also you see the text "calendar" right below the date and alarm.
I want to remove calendar and I want to remove those "clear" frames around the digital clock. Also its not about removing the text "start" in the top curtain...I want to edit it. See the other picture...
EDIT: I removed the text/word "Calendar" from my homescreen by selecting menu/Edit Home Layout: Then I held pressed "Calendar" and it prompted me if I wanted to remove it and there it went.. Now the only thing ...those darn eyeglass frames around my digital clock and editing the top curtain.

That should remove the clock background fully. It is in one of or both posts I posted in post 3.

That

Didn't work. Most of the Touch X's i've used do not work. I'm running the new TmoUS ROM on my HD2. Also I do not want to remove that "start" in the top curtain as so much as to edit it. Also do you know of a way besides HDWALL and B4ALL to get the homescreen wallpaper to show on the top and bottom curtains as well...?

Are those "frames" not part of the clock itself and not a background. I think you need to look for another completely transparent clock. I'm not sure which one to suggest, but that's where I'd be looking rather than cabs for transparent backgrounds

Interesting

hmmmm...let me search on that. But how about the top and bottom curtains and editing the top to put my name up there like in that picture

Try these, unzip and copy files to \Windows (backup the originals first ) and then overwrite the originals. You may need to use Total Commander or Resco File Explorer to do so.
For editing the name on the top I use CHT Editor, but you can also try MaxTTM (look in the Blackstone aka Touch HD section) if you don't use the Co0kie Home tabs mod.
EDIT: I see you also use the CHT Editor - so to change the operator name is very easy, go to - Menu\CHT Editor\Miscellaneous settings> and scroll down to Custom Operator text and edit to whatever you wish

I agree with Clyde. That cab should remove the BG of the clock all together.
I have a stock rom T-MoUS as well, and 90% of the Touch X cabs work for me. so they should work for you no probs. Maybe you have something installed that
does not get along with the cabs.
As for the start text thing.. I dont know if you can edit it. I know it can be removed. Not seen it edited to say something ells. CHT will allow you to change the operator text, just below the start text.
After looking at the second pic again. I *THINK* that is a personal rom that Antonio uses. If that is the case, he has that cooked into the rom like that.

You can also try this to edit the Operator name - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359563&highlight=personalizer

Yea I like the basic clock...i'm just trying to find one without those clear borders. And I already edited the Carrier name right below the top curtain...I just didn't know that was built inside a ROM within the Top Curtain...I thought that was a cab...

Now just to be clear

That zip file contains files that will make my home tab top and bottom bars/curtains transparent so my wallpaper will show the entire length of my display?

No. it will only take away the shaded areas behind the Operator name and behind the sliders. To skin the taskbar and softkey bar you need to use something like HD Wall, or alternatively the volDeus tweak (link in my signature) but HD Wall is a little easier to use. You can also skin the bars using MaxTTM referred to earlier.

I do not

Round Icons theme for Honor play no root.

Hi guys so I've searched for themes online which enable you to have round stock icons. I haven't found anything of good quality so I decided to give it a go and edit one of the built in themes on Honor Play. With luck not only was I able to change every icon to round (Photos Above, only on big Icons!) using only the stock icons but accidently managed to make a theme that adds another feature, which is to make any other icon which is not round into a round icon (almost) and makes your icons look so much better! I kept everything else stock I hope you like the theme! All the adaptive Icons for calendar and weather have also been changed while still fully fictional. The only icons I did not keep stock were the Music, Themes, and the Audio icon as I found better looking ones. The lock screen has no wallpaper set as I have left it on Magazine unlock to make it easy for those of you who like to use that feature. I do apologize if I have made any mistakes during this post this is quite literally my first ever post.
The link to the .hwt file is below. This theme will work on any Honor or Huawei phone but was initially created for Honor Play EMUI 9.
The instructions to install once downloaded are Copy File into Internal Storage > Huawei > Themes > and paste into this folder > Restart Phone > Open the themes app > Me > My Themes > You should see the theme for selection so like any other theme Apply and enjoy!
Big Icons> Set home layout to 5x6.

Yes I know! Read what I have said if you want adaptive round icons you need to use the big Icons. I showed you Microsoft app icons because they don't support round icons yet in my theme they are round. On small Icons theme only the main apps will be round! So download the big Icons you will see every single app in your drawer will be round including your apps mentioned above.

Question Strange Google Chrome icon out of the blue [SOLVED]

Google Chrome icon mysteriously changed to blue. The icon has three shades of blue and in the Playstore when I look at the icon to uninstall it update it looks like the original icon.
I started Mbam scan and in the first couple of icons it was chrome and regular icon.
What gives? I posted it on Reddit and one user has a poco phone with this icon. No searches get any result for either of us.
Please advice
Cheers
S

Mbam shows no threats

i don't know what mbam is but i also don't care
what launcher are you using?
what themes do you have applied?
any icon sets?
when you go into settings>apps>chrome is the icon there the same or is it the original?
which icon appears above the app when you use the app switcher
is that icon in the app drawer or is it on your home screen

I know you don't care, but for anyone else reading this who does (and doesn't know), mbam is short for MalwareBytes Anti-Malware -- OP probably just showing that it most likely wasn't a "virus" changing things....
I'm fairly curious what the icon actually is (image searched it, too generic to narrow down) and why it got changed; I've had issues with shortcuts (in other situations) but usually many other shortcuts are also changed to either the same random icon or to other icons (as if from a "pack")....

Reddit user found the culprit: Microsoft Launcher!!
They seem to have updated the Icon pack "Microsoft Launcher" where chrome gets a more edge like look? I can't remember even changing it from "System" to "Microsoft Launcher" Icon pack...
Fixed it by going to:
Launcher settings > Home Screen > Icon appearances > Icon Pack > set that to System
I had to remove the chrome icon from the dock an add it again to get rid of the blue icon. Same for any added websites icons.
In my case it was just install launcher and forget so it probably was on MS pack. I must admit the default Google icons in the pack look better that generic Google ones but the did dirty on the chrome icon
