What do I have to convert my graphics to, to get Ilauncher to recognise them ? I was trying to change an icon and it wouldnt even recognise files in the ilauncher icon directory.
Is this because it is not registered ? Good app but wanted to play around with it for a while before I make up my mind.
Anyone ?

Yes, you can not change any icons in the free mode. You will have to buy the paid. Just place all your icons on your sd card and you change them by going clikcing the iluancher icon, change icon, scroll to the icon you want to change and click on it,and press change icon. It should take you to your gallery.

hopefully a simple one this...
I'm using VJSMS (the new version) and want to create simple icons just with a bit of text on them (or a photo) so I know who each one is for. I'm using SPB Pocket Plus to give me instant access to these SMS shortcuts.
However, I cannot find how to let it display my new icons!!!
I can find how to change an icon within SPB, but it only gives me a choice of its own icons, not the ones I've put on my SD card.
I can see how to use the "Default Icon" which presumably is set within WM2005...
But how do I get it to show my custom icons? If I could change (per shortcut) the icon it uses within WM2005, this would be enough.
timetex - does the new version work ok?
Check here for some info on new icons

Some guys have posted about how to make icons for this launcher, but I'm afraid I've never used it. I'll try to remember who asked and how they sorted it, but AFAIK there's a limit on how many custom icons you can have?

i was pushing the icons so i could show you the effect as to what happens when i push (was trying to move my fingers around)

Aboinger, I am also interested in exploring Ultimate Launcher. Your Athena Ultimate Launcher Interface looks so nice. How did you do that? Can you explain step by step. Cos I also installed Ultimate Launcher, but Ultimate Launcher can only slide from right to left or vice versa, functions like the "easy shortcut". But Ultimate Launcher cannot move up and down.
Landscape is supported and works perfectly fine...
my ultimate launcher is also limited from side to side / fade animations
when you are in the tabs option and hit create new it should give you an option to add in plugins / shortcuts
what exactly did u need help with id be more than happy to help
Where download the ultimate launcher?
its an exe so its in a zip
dont know where the cab for the english version is ...
updated video to include ftouchsl / new UL interface

Better!...
I know this is a thread to demo the UL (which I just got put on two days ago....awesome software). But boinger, I notice that you have flames on your S2U2. One: where did you get that animated background for it? Second: your S2U2 looks as if it was designed for VGA....mine looks like a stretched QVGA screen. How can i get mine crisp like yours?
Thanks buddy. Nice layout..
BTW....I'm not sure what the version that was linked earlier in this thread....but I found the english version here!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365334&highlight=Ultimate+Launcher&page=2
yes this one is the english version
and about S2U2 i changed the graphics for vga.. you can do that simply by editing the .png's
i just changed the clock files to be honest.
and in real vga mode the slider doesnt work. so i enabled dpad support cause the screen mapping is off.
i can send you the flames gif... i got it off another member and edited it for vga.
You said editing the png's. Does that mean you changed the icons themselves, or you adjusted the values of the png to fit VGA? Just a little confused on that. Or all together, did you edit the pngs in a software such as Adobe Photoshop? If that is the case I might have to ask are you willing to share....thats a little over my head.
Yes Please email me the flame background...[email protected]
I might go back to S2U2 because of this.
Thanks boinger....appreciated buddy!
the blue flames jpg is attached
and i wouldnt mind sending you the vga clock files but that should be in the clock pack already
boinger,
What sort of icon format does ultimatelaunch accept. Is it only ico? What about png format?
only ico
you can use 32bit xp icons though.. so they look just as nice... only dillema is you have to convert most icons from .png
i can upload my ico icon pack for you all if you like ?
how can i use icon(bottom) like you?
i like your style..
looks nice..
i tried but.. i cannot use it.
i do not know how i set the icon.
i like icon linked like iphone..
please, let me know how you set yr advantage.....
That would be awesome if you uploaded some of your icons boinger. I'm also trying to find some to share here as well.
I'm struggling a little with the "not activated" signs in the corner. I have registered this app, and entered the code twice. Soft-reset. After a couple of minutes and some navigation, they reappear.
I searched for some answers, and it seems there isnt a fixed from what I was able to find.
Anybody else having this annoyance!!
Thanks
here ya go
Thanks boinger. These are nice buddy!!!!
I think I have the wrong version of S2U2. I just took the WM5 version that I used for my x51v. I say this because, I cant use gif. as a wallpaper for it. I'm assuming that I might not have the most current version.
Lastly, I have been trying to incorporate your icons, but for some reason UL will not show them when I select them. I can only use the default icons that come with them.
Any ideas!!!
I don't seem to be able to enter text for the application icon, although I can see that the config icon has a description.
What is the trick to enter this text?
I'm also unable to choose tab icon. Does tab icon got to meet certain criteria for them to work?

set the icon size to 72 x 72 that should work..
UL wont show icons unless they are the proper size...

Anybody know how we can see all icons (and index) in shellres.dll file especially icons to change folder icons in menu start?
Icons for Games folder in menu start is:
1#shellres.dll,-8229
Icons for Office folder in menu start is:
1#officeres.dll,-7690
Is there any chance to see index of all icons in shellres.dll file? Perhaps do we know some folder icons, like this for game or office folder (standard folder icons with little addon)?
I've used PE Explorer to index all of these

Can you explain me how did found index of all icons in shellres.dll?
Did you found icon for Game folder in menu start?
So could I change the icon for a certain program like this?
I downloaded a game but it has an ugly icon that doesn't even look right with the game. I got a different icon I use with ultimatelaunch but it still shows the ugly icon in the recent programs list & the games folder. I would like it to show the icon I downloaded

The icon on the game folder is a file .icon that is hidden. If you use total commander and set it to show hidden files, you'll see it.

You can't just change the icon. Applications need to be digitally signed. If you change the icon, it will lose its signature, meaning it will give an error on startup. You'll need to unsign it first, change its icon using PE Explorer and signing it back.
Can you share your shellres.dll file?

moved to Q&A
I have tried to search and find what to do to install a theme that has icons, and cannot figure it out. Do I need some program that everyone is using? Also on dialer skins how are those installed?
Do skins kill battery life or use alot of system resources?
Thanks
What theme? If its HTC home, you install the .cab file from the phone or sync the phone to pc and double click .exe.
If its a .tsk file, Put the file in the windows directory of the phone then go to today screen and select from there.
Skins dont use a lot of system resources UNLESS they are actively doing something( S2U2 for example if you install a moving gif as your wallpaper) as they are just being used instead of the originals.. Cheers...
yea, u need to be a wee bit more clear as to what you want, you're probably new and dont know the right terms, so maybe if you posted some pics we could understand a bit better what u are trying to achieve.
this is the style im looking for http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=51534&d=1190401691 with the big clock and some icons below. I think that I will need a plug in to show the icons. I installed a tsk theme but it only changed the color of the top and bottom bars, but did not show the large clock or icons like that one. I saved it to the memory card, not within a folder and I was able to browse find and install it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry Im New
thanks,
Nicholas
that big clock is the htc home plugin, which you can download all over this forum, or at www.pocketemu.com which incidentally also has another program called htc home customizer, which would be the easiest way to customize the home icons. It may not have that exact theme you are looking for, so the best way to get that theme is to ask the person who posted that screenshot

Ditto. Welcome to the addiction...I'm lucky to keep the same clock and icons for more than a week...
As above really -
Got a ton of icons on my storage card, but I have no idea how I can change the icons I'm currently using to the ones on the storage card. Or is it a lot more difficult than it sounds?

It IS possible, but I'll let one of the more experienced people here tell you exactly how (I'm not well-versed on the process.....yet).
But, in the meantime, would you be willing to zip up your icon collection and sharing it? I'm always looking for new icons to use...I can already replace them on the slider bar, next thing to learn is the program ones
Icons for Windows Mobile phone
Of course! I can't remember where I got them all - so I'm hoping the creators are happy for me to share them out.
536 icons in total (although there are a few duplicates - I mean 2 different icons for the same program).
Enjoy!
The question of how easy it is depends on which OS you're running... if it's 6.5 I recommend using JWMD's Icon Changer, but many recommend Showaco's reSTART. The 'how to' instructions for each app can be found in that thread I just linked.
If it's 6.1 it's more cumbersome as you have to edit the link. I don't bother with it and instead customize whatever shell I'm using at the time.
You're welcome to grab any of my folder icons listed in my sig
Thanks for the links!
Do these same programs change the icons on the home tab? I like the icons in my start menu, but the icons on the home tab are different for the same programs.
