Need some slider help - General Questions and Answers

I hope someone can offer me some help. I'm trying to figure the path from icon to application that the icons on the slider have. For example, the picture icon on the slider when tapped takes you to the "Photos & Videos" app and the silver circle with an arrow in the middle takes you to the "Sprint Navigation". Some icons on the slider, some that I mentioned above, when tapped, take you to a different looking version of that application versus tapping on the icons in the programs list. What I'm trying to figure out is, where or how do I find what application the icons on the slider are linked to, by path or otherwise.
On another note, do you know where I would find the location of the icons for the applications in the program list? If you could provide me with any help, I would appreciate it.
Thanks

How to get the Clock on the Top Bar?

Is it possible to get the Clock to show on the top bar while in the home screen as it was in PC2003? WM5 has replaced the clock with a battery icon which isnt very informative as its only a 2 stage indicator.
Thanks
This is actually a change new to AKU2 - pre-AKU2 there was no battery icon there. Please try this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45784
It doesn't contain the solution, but it's a pre-existing thread on the subject
Well, until someone comes up with a 'natural' solution, you can try my today plug-in:

Its not perfect, but it will put the clock not your task bar.
Also, there's nice program called Wisbar, which lets you do just about anything you want with your taskbar:

I had this CAB for the taskbar...

Before I did a reset, I had this software that when I touched the task bar, it would bring up a bubble that contained all the icons. It was very easy to see and adjust the volume, connectivity settings, alerts, etc. When I touched the task bar, the pop-up looked like a cartoon voice box, and the buttons to interface with the various task bar icons were large enough to work with the fingers. I don't remember the name of it, but it was very convenient. Does anybody know the software I'm talking about? This is one convenience I would very much like to restore on my Kaiser. The task bar functionality was the only thing it changed. The "comic voice bubble" was grey in the background, the selectable icons were white on grey, and it was free if that helps any. I don't remember what it was called, (or where I found it), but I liked it. What's it called, and where can I get it? Thanks for your help.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for color menu icons?

Hey Guys,
I have been monkeying around with the framework-res.apk, com.htc.recources.apk and other app .apk files and I noticed that many of them contain .pngs for icons, color layouts ect. I am getting tired of the standard grayscale icons when you hit the menu button either in the homescreens, apps, or programs. I was wondering if anyone has actually updated all of these "basic greyscale" icons to more of a colorful collection. I have searched and found there are many roms out there and modified .apk files but I haven’t found one that actually has these within the framework or recource.apks. Can anyone point me in the right direction in finding such icons for the menu options? Below is an example of what icons I am looking for but throughout the rest of the menu options of the hero phone.
Thanks
Jason
You can try purehero or aloysis. in know those both have colored menu icons
You can always try Buufed.. granted I might be a little biased

[19.06.2010] Icon Changer!! CHT 1.8 I Need Additional Help, PLZ

Since the launch of DINIK - Anastasia - MODS - By You thead, I have been very interested in switching over all my icons to the glass appearance. I ran into an issue last night when i went to switch the Garmin Mobile XT icon on my SD Card, JWD Icon changer came up with an error stating it can't change icon for a shortcut.
I have read the instructions, and i understand how to get all programs that are unregistered to update and added to the icon changer menu. However I cant navigate to my SD card and change Garmin's icon. I really want this glass icon added to CHT, in fact all my icons changed to DINIK glass theme in time. Please help!! any other Icon changers that are user friendly?
Also I've done a search for Icon changer, i've seen threads in the past, i can't seem to locate anything on xda. maybe there not tagged.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The JWMD Icon Changer are by far the best one... If you cant seem to find the Garmin Icon try to rearrange the icon by change the position on the start menu and then go use Icon Changer to change the icon.
It has something to do with it cant find it before you do that kind of stuff not sure why and only need do this on a few of the added icons.
Hope this was at least a little helpful for you.
Kind regards,

If it still gives you an issue you can find the exe and follow the instructions on creating a new short cut ...
Create you a new shortcut in the startmenu and change that icon ...
Search the forum for info on how to create a new shortcut ...
i know how to create a new shortcut, its simple. even if i do that directly to my start menu. i get the error that icon changer refuses to change that shortcut
im having a simillar issue i think. I try to change an icon, lets say the bluetooth icon for example, i select the icon and select "change icon", but then i cant find any other icons to use. Ive searched the memory card and device memory but cant find them. I need to be able to see the extra icons so i can select which one to use but nowhere to be found. Any ideas?

How to make text application icons/shortcuts?

Hi, could anybody point me in the direction of learning how to make homescreen applications links/shortcuts in the form of text with icons? I am aware of how to use Simple Text to create purely text icons, but that only works to create icons that are 1x1 - whereas the most shortcuts with icons and text are more like 1x3. Attached is an image of what I am trying to achieve, I've searched high and low both on here and on google, but can't seem to find any instruction on how to do it. Thanks in advance.
Also, first post. Hi.
