Hello again
Is there any way to change the icons in the programmes menu?
Some of them are low-res, and some of them are just not that nice to look at.
The Total Commander icon is a good example...
In my oppinion it looks like something from a Vic20, or maybe a C64.
So, my question is...
Is it possible to change the icons, and if so - how to do it?
Thanks in advance!
Attached: Screenshot of the icons.

Well, it's a sollution...
Eventhough it's not changing the icons of the programmes themselves, but rather changing the icons of the perticular buttons in the programmes menu.
I'll give it a go, thanks for your answer
Will post back if it works...!
Hmmm, didn't work on my phone...
Made the button I wanted to change white, and the button next to it...
Anyone else have an idea on how to solve this?

How to do that?
there'e all files I used:
more additional and simpler method
used only 2 files:
Nice and thanks
I tried the two files and they worked well here (Pure running Tess 4.1)
I had a few personel changes I would prefer
White(er) clock digits would be more visable on my dark background
And I sometime have a hard time finding the current icon (to slide it )
with the transparent slider, I mainly changed it to get the 5 icons
Either of these "user" adjustable?
(wasn't there a select from multiple clock faces setting somewhere?)
I also noticed (its what really 1st got my attention!)
you have 5 launcher icons
I really like that feature! or even 4 wide how many total icons (rows?)
and how did you do that?
Thanks

+1 (it's true 9 shortcuts it's not enought)
Sorry as a follow up I decide to remove the clock and slider
unfortunately I was unable to remove the clock completely
(remove programs failed) Fortunately I had backed up first and
was abel to get back the original white flip clock with a cold reset and restore
I might have had more luck if I turned off TF3D before attempting removal?
but just as a heads up the cams I had the problems with were
No_BG.cam and No_slider1920.cab
I've also noted that it Doesn't look like the task bars with the two file solution
are actually transparent? they look solid black?
The pic thats with the three files TF3D 2.5 top and bottom curtain files
and clock 26 trans. looks more like what I'm looking for, bit I don't understand how you replace the single manila files with the 3 masks (they all have the same name. even though in different subdirs) but can't help but wonder if these will work with the set of "colored task bar icons" I'm using? (aren't the masks
specific to the icons artwork?
I know I've asked "a lot" and from two different authors, but I'd be willing to
bet its an interesting topic that at least a few people would like to know more about.
Thanks

I'd like to have the bottom slider (the one for selecting tabs) semitransparent.. Actually it is in today screen, ma I'd like to have it semitransparent also on all tabs.
Back to the launcher icons. Anyone has an idea how to get 4 and more there?
Hi,
I can't do this task!
After turning off the HTC Sense, I tried to copy and paste files, but the unit had the following message:
Can not copy 'Access Denied'
Make sure that the memory is enough free storage, the destination is not write protected and file is not being used
I am performing a wrong way?
Thanks

Hi Max and all you other skinners out there!
I'd like to request the Sprint clock (in white, not flipping) and a transparent background for the clock (in combination with the weather display) for the HD2. I tried so many things with MaxTTM (not the ultimate layout, which looks great but has way to many features for me *ggg*) but didn't get that working. Anythin I did corrupted the layout.
Maybe there is already a solution for that and I'm to blind to find it If so than please advice guys
Also a great set of black and white icons for the slider would be nice I really don't like the "colorful" stuff...
Thanks in advance!
Picture please?

Something like that but for the HD2 (of course with weather). I just want to get rid of the white background and the flipping:

What about this transparent clock variant?

Tried that before but I didn't like it because of the "flipping" which doesn't look good with transparent background. Numbers look distorted when the numers flip...
Add Disable Clock Flip
For that, there 's a cab named "Touch_X_Homescreen_Flip_clock_OFF" and it works fine for me.

AFAIK, this only disables the clock animation when you return to the home screen, i.e. when the clock goes 1 hour and 2 mins back and then flips to the actual time. The normal flipping of the clock is not disabled by this cab.
Would love a sprint clock as well. Contacted dragonsoft see if he can help as he seems to have done a few nice clocks.

Did anyone get any further with this? Loved the sprint on my Diamond, now want it for my HD2
have a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551489
in the 4th post you will find sprint clocks. Only to use with MaxTTM or Max Manila.
cheers, i had seen & played with Max-Manila but wasn't over keen. not a great lover of 3rd party software plus i like to get my hands dirty if you know what i mean.
I am looking for this Battery Icon. I have the Vista Taskbar installed and i want to change the Vista Battery Icon to the icon on the picture here:
Does anyone know where I can find this one? Only the battery, i don´t want to change any other detail.
+1 on That!
Go on guys! Im sure it wouldnt take much to make a cab of just the battery..
I't would look nice with my Dusk theme
Here, I found it I couldn´t wait so long
This cab changes the Battery Icon into the 3D green Battery. Looks great.
Genius!
Thanks Yoshi! Your right, it is nice!
Must note, changes WiFi as well but as its a nice icon not too bothered
Thanks Again!
I really love this Battery icon, too
any chance...
Yoshi, do you know where I could get a cab for the start menu icon on its own? I'm after a green/dark geen large HTC icon... Recon it would look nice with my dusk theme
Thanks it´s look very nice
hi guys i'm new here but i wanna know how to install these, could someone please tell me how?
I do not have this battery icon alone.
Another Battery is here:
Thanks Yoshi!
Yoshi! you been holding out on me? Thats nice! I'm so indecisive Think Ill go with this one as its darker. Been trying to skin my hd2 as close to the Matrix as I can (goes with the long leather coat )
& Finezt: Its simple
Run windows mobile center (or activsync if your on xp or older)
Copy across the cab file prfrebly to your mem crd.
Run from phone and install...
Soft reset and your done!
Should of changed for you!
So what else you hiding from us Yoshi?
I have my HD2 sind last Friday, 8 Days. I have changed some things, that i didn´t like.
- Another Battery Icon
- Vista Startmenu
- More than only 1 calender appointment on homescreen
- changing many icons
- installing Home Tap Manila MOD
- another clock
- glass slider and weather
- new audio and video players
and many other small things that make my HD2 better for me.
All in all, nothing unusual
yoshi can you show us your today screen please?
Ok, here are some screens.
I am always looking for some new things to make better.

Do you have the Vista Taskbar installed? Then the Task4.cab for the new Battery. Reset and it works.
Hi.
I just have the latest rom from HTC and put the "task_4.cab" file in the program map on the phone memory. Installed it and did a softreset after. Worked like a charm for me
Hope it helps!
Thanks for a great cab!
None of those work for me. The Artemis one somehow worked, however the battery looked still like original, but with smoother edges, and also the "H"-icon for fast 3G. Weird
Very nice, works good for me!

Hi Yoshi!
Can I have a copy of your wallpaper in your fist post? would be a nice addition to my growing collection!
Thanks Mate!
i've searched everywhere for some nice digital clocks, but everyone creates clocks with some really wierd fonts, or colors that isnt really my taste. So, i made a "concept art" of how a digital clock id like to use look like. (see attachments)
The clock has to be adjustable via CHT (i mean being able to move it around like the normal manila digital clock), so that i can use it in all screens, (Home , all levels, and lockscreen).
Anyone knows if anything like this exists?
if not, anyone willing to make it?
i used the font known as "Segoe UI" (light). Also, if possible, id like some extra versions of it, like the fonts being black instead of white, and an other one with having that black transparent panel behind the clock, using white for the fonts.
PS1:i know that the clock im thinking about looks horrible with the current looks of my phone, but i cant be arsed to change anything until i find a proper clock
PS2: i also know that theres a cab that removes the white panels behind the manila numbers of the clock. The thing is that, without it, the numbers got a little gap between them, looking ugly imo
I basically achieve this by mixing two cabs I've found here in xda
one is called
[Star] Segoe UI light clock charecters White.cab
and the other one is
Transparent Clock flippers.cab
you can find them here on xda posted by their respective authors.
edit: oh I forgot! you can use
transparent clock background.cab to get the effect you want
awesome! thanks a lot for ur reply!
Yeah use my cabs, but you will still get the lines its inevitable when you remove the clock flippers man
ah shame. i thought that ppl let those gaps there, so that the "flip" of the numbers looked better
excellent work with those cabs btw, they were exactly what i needed
I would love a clock like this also. Shame nobody wants to make it without the lines (from the flippers).
Having the lines kills the elegancy of it.
Hi everyone,
I get a solution to fix the problem with the flip lines but you have to be very carefully 'coz it's a bit risky...don't be panic, it works for me perfectly without problem and it would work for you guys too, just follow the instruction
1. Make a backup of the 7c60907d_manila go to your /windows directory and find that file, copy and paste it in your SD card.
2. Download the attached rar. file to your PC, extract the file and save the folder "NoFlipLIne" in your SD card
3. Using Total Commander or File Resco, go to your SD card and open the folder "NoFlipLine" and copy the manila file and paste it into your /Windows directory and accept overwrite (don't worry, you have a backup in case something go wrong)
4. Now reset Sence or restart your phone (as you prefer) and see if you like the magic
Also this manila file has a fix to get installed up to 20 CHT widgets too.
In case of any problem, just find your backed up original file and reinstall it back.
Remember, that works perfectly in my device, but I will not be responsible if it does not work well on yours or cause any other problems, so use it at your own risk
Enjoy it and please let me know if it works well for you.
Your feedback or just a Thanks button clicked is always appreciated.
Thank you for the reply, and your effort.
Unfortunately this did not work. I did exactly as you said, when I restart the phone, I get the original clock, with flippers, but no text where the time is. Basically the time (text) is blank and I just have the original flippers which flipe with nothing inside them.
I don't have screen capture software so I hope you know what I mean. I fyou want a screen print, please link a screen capture app.
I copied the original (backup file) to Windows and all is ok now.
My phone details are as follows:
ROM: 314 WWE (3.14.831.3
Manila: 2.5.20161330.0
WM6.5
Thanks again for trying. Any other suggestions?
ok, this s a little embaressing, I feel like an idiot.
There was no clock text as everything was white. When I mucked around and applied the 'transparent flippers' boom, the clock is just like the pic. PERFECT.
Thanks heaps. I have 'thanked' your post. Good job.

Hi Hgalanos,
Please, don't feel like that, it happen to everyone sometimes
I'm glad it works for you too and you get it the way you like it, thanks for your feedback my friend.

Hi again my friend,
I forgot to give you a hand with this one too, so here I'm again
For screen capture I use a great app that is very easy to use and works perfectly and with good quality, it is "Shake and Save" which you can find it in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488990
Best regards.
Wow, brilliant app. Thank you x2. For the app, and the clock.
