View "Icons" folder settings - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Anyone come up with a way to open a folder with fexplore.exe and see just the icons of what's in there? In other words, is the list view the only view available with fexplore?

Different icons in menu start like Game folder icon...

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?

gallery question - icons appearing in there??

Hi guys,
When opening the gallery I get following folders:
- all pictures
- all videos
- 100MEDIA
- drawable
- VIDEO
Now the "drawable" folder seems to contain icons (from quickcalendar I think) so I'm not interested to see those... these icons are also included in the "all pictures" folder
Is there a way that I can get that out the gallery and the "all pictures" folder?
If not, how can I create a shortcut only to the 100MEDIA folder on my homescreen so I only see the real pictures?
Thanks

Few things I can't figure out how to do with my HD2

1. is it possible to have a wallpaper changer? could you recommend me the right app\link?
2. is it possible to have games in our quicklinks? or do we have to go to startmenu?
3. in games ive made subfolders for strategy , role playing etc.. how can i put icons on those folders?
4. when i click albums quicklinks, it brings up camerashots and says no photos or videos found, on bottom left side i have the options to view albums, and then it shows all albums on my phone. is there away for me when on homescreen and select albums it will show me all albums immediatelly?
thank you.
You can put games in the Quicklinks. The phone came with Guitar Hero in the quicklinks.
i realize that.. i mean the folder games. sorry
can i put the folder games in the quicklinks?
anyone have any tips for me please?
ive come up with another thing that annoys me about my layout.. maybe there's a workaround someone knows?
when going into albums storage card it shows all the folders on my storage card for images.. is there away for it to show them like a tree? meaning not show all subfolders right away? i have a folder in my storage card named wallpapers, and inside that are 15 folders, (portrait.landscape, high res. etc..) when i open albums they all show up.. i'd like it to just show wallpapers then IF I CHOSE wallpapers then it would show the subfolders.
Thanks

What do you mean by wallpaper-changer? You can adjust your wallpaper if you go on settings-tab and then on personalize.
If you want to customize your icons, use this app:

and search for custom icons in themes / apps area.
wallpaper changer - i had a SPV C550(HTC) and there was a proggy for changing the homescreen wallpaper every 10,30 seconds etc.. so curious if anyone has found the similiar thing for there htc.. where it would change the homescreen wallpaper every 10, 30 seconds or minute. but when backlight turns off the changer would stop of course.
thanks for icon changer info

No I dont know how to show all your albums just by clicking on the quicklink, but you can navigate to your favorite album and hit the right softkey. There you can choose "set album as favorite". Now, when you click on the quicklink, it will allways show up your defined album instead of "no albums found".

[Q] Getting icons back?

Start Menu -> look at my HTC_Calendar and HTC_Music app - they both do not have the nice HTC icons (musical note icon and HTC Calendar app icon - the one you get when you hover over the calendar in the slider). It used to be there and when I tried to copy the file from the storage location to another location and copied it back, it no longer shows the icon - just the generic blue stripe at the top, white window icon. Any idea how I can make it so it generates and shows the nice icon? I looked at the .lnk file using notepad and noticed it points to ManillaShortcut music or calendar. That's it. There's no reference to an icon file or anything like that. Is there a reg key or something? Thanks in advance.
Can someone look in their Start Menu and tell me what (this is stock 2.13 ROM) the lnk is called and what it should point to? Currently - it is called HTC_Calendar and HTC_Music.

Wallpaper question

Does anyone know if there is a way to get a folder to show up in the wallpapers menu? Or a way to add images to the folder that already displays there?
Only way is through Gallery.
