Hello there
I´ve got a little question: Since there is no HTC Mozart ROM with cooked in custom icons (I hope there will be one somewhen) and the XBMOD CAB sender gave me an error ("Update Failed") (I had Deepshining 8017 ROM installed) and locked my device again, I thought about modifying my AppIcons with Advanced config, but I think I remember that this actually breaks the live tile function, which is of course a no go for me (hit me if I´m not right )
So the next thing I thought about is replacing the default icons through Windows Phone Device manager or Windows Mobile Device Center.
Is it even possible to do this with these tools?
You trying to replace built-in tiles, or the icons from apps? The latter is easy on a full-unlock ROM like yours. Use a filesystem manager (WPDM or Root Webserver will make it easy to do this from the PC) and go to \Applications\Install\<GUID-OF-THE-APP>\Install\ and find the images you want to replace. Delete them and replace them with your own preferred ones.
If it's for built-in apps, then I do not know a way to solve the problem.
I don´t want to replace entire tiles, but
I´m trying to replace the Icons
from default:

to something like that:
(for example) without to lose the Live Tile functionality.
So do I understand your answer right (?): I cannot edit the System App´s Icons like SMS, but the ones from other apps like any app from the marketplace or homebrew ones.
All the icons for the built in apps are store in various DLL's in the /Windows folder. As of right now, there's no way to edit these unless you are cooking a ROM or creating a Custom CAB. The CAB probably isn't working because your ROM probably has a newer build # than his CAB does.

Hi, New here, but taken so much good stuff from here today.
I have my Today screen almost where I want if the HTC Home and LG plug in, but I can't get rid of a few items to Place the LG bar at the bottom of the screen.
As you'll see on the shot I've circled a some icons, now I can lose the o2 icon by removing the Startup reference and i no how to lose the Calendar\Contact bar but I cannot get rid of the Battery and Comm icons.
Any ideas.
Cheers

For the Comm Manager and Battery indicator there is a reg edit... for that you can search the Tips and Trick thread on the Upgraging subforum...
Also you might find some clues about the others aswell....
Thanks for that, but any chance of a little more info.
After going through 72 pages in that Tweaks and Tricks thread I found only the bits I knew already about the install.
I may have been going a little post blind though after page 40 or so.
Sorry, can't help
I know which reg entries (for the battery and comm manager) you have to modify on the Hermes... but I doubt it'll work on the polaris... maybe some one can provide more info in the tips and tricks thread if you ask...
Sorted it, after a tip from another thread, it's the system tray, from that i found the Reg Key.
If anyone else needs it, it is.....
Code:
Location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ Software/ HTC/ Trayapplet
Then I removed the O2 icon from Startup and sorted.
Decided I don't like the LG tray though in the end lol, but it's nice to have all my desktop to play with.
i too have problems with the system tray bar
when i connect to my PC via usb, or when i launch tomotm, the tray apperas, an messes up my todayscreen configuration, wich i completly do by ultimatelaunch, so the system tray uses some of the space i use fpr ultimate launch
i tried to follow the how tos, to disable it, namely remove the trayap folder in hklm_software_htc but i dont have such a folder there, and i searched fpr a init_tray:ink in my autostart folder, but didnt find anything like that there
anyone knows how to disable this bar?
i use bepes, wm6.1 rom in .67
greetings and thanks in advance, qoka
Ive done it...

Perfect, thanks!
Beware,I disabled the previous HTC Home .
will this one be as default in the new rom?
no, i like the standard htc home, but you can install this..why not
Many thanks Michy
Works with Igo8
Some feedback for you Michy.
I tried your R3 version and couldn't use Igo with the htc home you had so I flashed back to your 2.04d which I was very happy with.
I just installed this cab and can report that Igo8 does work and it seems with a little more free memory.
I like the large clock and pics in the contacts pane and had used a htc home based on touch commander but found it used too much resources.
Is it possible to put this in a version of your R4 rom when you release it
thanks lakeman
thanks michy,excellent work !
thanks michy
For other language version of ROM You will have change numbers in name of MUI and XML files acording to proper language code . Form Polish ROM's change for 415
big thanks michy!!!
thank you all for ur compliments
Customization
Is it possible to customize like yhe other one?
Thanks very good
yes if you have/make theme files.
top/bottom bars and fonts?
Hey Michi, thanks for all your work. What theme are you using to get the top/bottom bars and the nice small fonts. I'm using your Diamond VGA from the latest ROM and the font is too big, have to scroll through calendar. I want my screen just like your screenshot in the first post here.
try to set realvga to 96 dpi. you can find it in control panel.
Thanks, Michi. Looks Great with 96!. Phone display not so much. I'll keep surfing. I owe you a beer for the rom though.
because you checked Disable phone skin. You have to uncheck it and reapply 96dpi mode.
michyprima,
Don't mean to sound like such a Newbie but is the Cab file you posted above (or below depending how you sort) the rom that can be flashed onto a 7510? Or was this intended to be used on the 7500 or 7501 only?
Regards,
Q
it is a cab of the x7510 big clock. Can be installed on all vga devices.
I've installed successfully, however I can't select the city at weather page and add the icons. Anyone know the problem?
Is using WM 6.0 problem?
Thanks for any kindly help

Is it from a new version of TouchFlo?
I really like the 3 "add Shortcut" icons, maybe there is a cab, to get it to work like that.

This is the new Manila 2.5. It is very buggy so far (atleast on VGA).

Well my friend if you like shortcuts...may be you consider SPB mobile shell 3.01....
YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE IT THE WAY YOU WANT IT, PLACING THE SHORTCUTS THAT YOU NEED AND USE MOSTLY. THE CHOICES ARE ENDLESS...LOOK INTO IT , YOU WOULD NEVER GO BACK TO MANILLA...BELIEVE ME!!!
here is my home page on it shortcuts that i use all the time including my 2 preferred contacts
and by the way that my baby Kiara
Looking nice
But i haved tried mobile shell, it´s ok, but i more like touch flo.
So i hope to find a program or tweak there can do it.
You might want to take a look at this ROM:
[14 Aug][WWE] udK Leo R1 WM6.5 - Build 21840.5.0.60 - Base v2.08 - Hero UI Manila 2.6
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524224
I've been using it and it's fantastic. You have the shortcuts (actually you scroll it, so instead of just 3 you have 9). Other details in this ROM make it a great experience. I don't feel like going back to 6.1 after using it, still needs some bugs to be fixed, but you can give it a try.
I use the shortcuts for:
1- Enabling Bluetooth (CicleBT)
2- Toggle Wifi On/Off
3- Gmail shortcut
Hope this helps you
It's 2.5....

You realise of course that getting this home screen involves first Hard SPL for your phone and then flashing the new ROM. Tom Codon has a 2.5 ROM that is not particularly buggy - I find it fine for day to day use you can find it at http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=274
I flashed my Jack with WM 6.5 recently and loaded the Titanium panels. But I am not seeing an "all in one" panel for Missed calls, Email, Text, and Voicemail. Instead I have a panel for each one.
I checked out the list of apps/panels in the 3vo ROM's for the Excalibur and nothing seemed to be the panel I'm after.
See middle Screenshot at the bottom of first post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523718
Or just below the Wifi panel in this SS.

Anyone know where I can find the stand alone installer? Or help narrow down the search terms? The results I am getting haven't helped find it yet.
I was able to find the info in the Titanium CPR file on the 3VO rom, so I copied that over to the file for my phone. It works!
I just can't find the icons though, I've got red x's on the condensed view and 2 of 4 icons in expanded have red x's. I've looked over the text a lot and I just can't find where they are pulling from.
Looking at the image keys in the registry I see the following:
Value Name: chNotification_cv_email
Value Data: 2003
I'm guessing that is pulling from a DLL, but I am stumped on where to find the name of the DLL so I can view the contents to pick new icons.
Have you tried checking with CHomeConfigurator? I have both the combined panel and the individual ones...
U must install titanium notifications plug

Is there a way to reorganize messaging items/get rid of a particular item e.g. voicemail?

I think you would have to edit the CPR file and comment out the items you don't want to use. If you're editing the CPR file, make a copy for safe keeping in case you mess it up.
Commenting an item out should be easy enough, you'll probably have to adjust the spacing afterwards to get things to appear neatly again.
if you want to change the right softkey all you have to do is:
1: Download my manila file
2: Backup the original 07c67730_manila file in your windows folder
3: Copy my manila file to your windows folder
4: With your favorite registry editor goto: HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila
5: Change: HomeRSKPath / HomeRSKText / HomeRSKArguments to what ever you like
For contacts change HomeRSKPath to: Manila://people\browserlayer\?.page
To remove quick Links without the menu all you do is hold the quick link you dont want for about 3-4 seconds and then drag it away this works on my rom but gessing its the same for all roms

FYI, I used HD2Tweaks to achieve the same result without the hassle of backup up/copying manila files, going into the registry etc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=588652
Nice iv never used hd2tweaks before gess ill have to make mine even better so that it will have some use
*EDIT*
After testing hd2tweaks the right softkey setting never worked for me so i gess this is for people where hd2tweaks dont work
*EDIT*
Don't know if it's the Dutty ROM I have, Co0kie's Home Tab, or the ROM that you use, but the long-hold on quicklinks does nothing for me. Shame, because that sounded like a nice feature.
im also useing duttys rom so i gess its the Co0kie's Home Tab
I'm using an old version of a Dutty ROM - HG v0.8. It could be something that he himself introduced, if you're using a later version than me, but if that's the case then I'm pretty sure installing Co0kie's Home Tab would stop it working.
Im useing dutty HG 2.9
I was trying to make a customizable right softkey menu but run into some problems. I could make any of the menu items run anything that i set in the registry but i could not change the menus text
E.G i could make it so that when you click on somethink like Set Local Time and Date it would open the all people page but i could not change the text from saying Set Local Time and Date to say Contacts or any kind of text
the menu is loaded from Manila://home_menu.dialog if anyone knows how i can make my own .dialog so i can change the menu it would be grate
Thank you Splder!
It is perfect!
