The programs structure is built by the initflashfiles.dat. You might check there for that folder. Open it with notepad and remember to just click "save" not "save as". And then open it with winhex or any other hex editor and remove the first 2bytes "FFFE"
The "About" version you could change in the default.hv, but convert it to default.rgu before that and don't forget to add "REGEDIT4" without quotes in the first line and leave the last line empty. Then convert it back to .hv
didn't I answer that for you on aim?
it was after i posted it...
you're welcome anyway...

Hi all, anyone knows how to change the 2 softkeys at the bottom of the menu? the default is PHONE on the left and MAIN MENU on the right..
Try this -- just unzip and add it to your windows directory and it will appear in the settings.
Apologies to the author of the program - I don't have an original source - but all credit goes to whoever developed or extracted it!

I have already tried a shortcut creator which allows me to change the icon of a shortcut...
But when I copy that shortcut to a different pocketpc (which has the same programs installed as my own), the icon switches to the standard one...
Any chance to definitely change that icon??
.....No one?
The Icon of a exe file is stored IN the exe file, try to open the exe file in a res-editor and replace the icon with the one you like
I don't know if that works for ppc exe files too, but: just try it

I already tried it... But I still have a problem:
When I copy the .exe file from my PC to my device, the icon is automatically restored to the default one...
Maybe the icon I'm using aren't compatible with this type of operation?
I use this icons: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424678
The .ICO ones....
which icons are you trying to change
sometimes there are more than one icon in the exe.. (different sizes and colors) be sure you replace all
if you like i can try it for you, just send me the exe and the icon, or upload it here.

You can find it in the attachment....
It seams your .ico is corrupt, i can replace it with an other icon, and no problems.. but your one is "empty" (in windows I see the guitar playing homer, but in ResEdit, the icon is empty.. )
I tried it with another on, and it worked
Used TGTSoft ResEdit. Just open your exe, then point on the left site to "Icons" and select that one you want to replace. the you see the icon on the right site. Over the Icon ther is a replace button, click that, select your icon and save the project

hope hat helps you

Everytime I try it, I get an error....
ERROR CAN'T OPEN .BMP FILE....
But I'm trying to use .png and .ico icons.....
Maybe Am I already using wrong icons?
Where can I find correct ones?
is the extension of the file really ico? Do you use just the icons of this thread?
Here you will find lots of icons: http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/icons/?order=5
hope you get it to work if not, i can try to convert them

I use .PNG icons.... If I try to replace the existing icon with a .ICO one, I can't load it with the app... It doesn't let me load a .ICO file...
EDIT:
Finally I make it work opening the .ICO file with an icon editor...
I deleted all the format (16x16,24x24,ecc...) inside but one (32x32)...
Then just write its name in ResEdit (because it doesn't allow me to search .ICO file)....
AND FINALLY IT WORKS!
Thanks to all!

aslam o alikum all.
i updated rom of my hd2.
after that i was scrolling in windows folder and saw soliter,bubble breaker,auto update ,transcriber in that folder but these applications are not displayed on interface anywhere i tried to copy them but it says cant copy from rom directory .
anyone can tell me how can i bring them on home screen.
thankx in advance.will be thankful.
You need to click/hold on them and select 'Copy'.
Then you need to go to the Start Menu/Programs folder of the Windows folder (where all the shortcuts in the Start Menu and sub folders are), and then you need to 'Paste Shortcut' into here.
They will then appear in the Start Menu, or appropriate sub folder depending on where you Pasted the Shortcut to.
Edit:
To follow up on this reply, to have them appear on the home screen, you then can select them to add as required on the quicklinks.
dosent work
i tried this it works but if u turn your handset off it dissappears.but if you browse with file explorer its still their.but u cant see it in start menu.
hello my dear i tell you how speed up urs ppc and make own icon and user name as own
1st install xplore
2nd make own folder in My Documents like soft internet tools
open xplore go config mark show rom and hiden files
3 u see camera.lnk renamed with urs own name like zaheer
go to My Documents pic folders u make it befor
and copy to start menu
select folder u want to move select copy or move ok
now u have own named icon zaheer.lnk
thanks for read bye be happy
what ?
i don't get it, can you be more specific, how dose this speed up the os ?
This is a hoax - he just describes how you can have *.lnk file with your own name in the start menu. That .lnk file will then call the camera application. This will not speed up anything on your device.
