soft reset after installing.
cheers

pretty cool skin. thanks for sharing. installing now and sure it will look great!

it looks fine... but it's missing the blue background. if anyone figures out how to change it please let me know.
thanks

I am sorry, that I am opening this after quite long time, but I am facing the same problem now. I want to customize this app to match my global skin, but background is still persisting. I tried virtually everything, but without success. Same situation is also with LargeTitleBar app.
Did anybody make progress in this?

The background is in the .dll file if I remember right. Search up n how to edit the dll and you should be ok. Have not done it myself but will give it a shot to see If I can help more. No promises

zelendel: I thought that too, but only this is in HTCVolumeControl.dll:
3 icon entries, 1 text string, 3 group icons and 1 version info
Nothing else. I tried different resource editors (PE explorer and Resource Hacker) and it is same in both of them. Or am I doing something wrong?

I don't think your doing anything wrong as same with me, thought i'd have a look @ resources.
I'm stumped

stylez: Yes, there are some PNGs and I think that only "HTCVolumeControl.png" is used. But some parts of it look like they are not used at all. I attached my "HTCVolumeControl.png" with legends.

Yeah i edited my last post not sure if you seen before i did? I was looking @ same file but noticed that nir36 had edited them all blue so not that... I was under same assumption that maybe the lower ones where stretched for background before looking @ nir36's files.

i use it and i have wm6 as well..
you can change about anything with this...
oh yes Ive tested it. It's basically what I've been playing with in syscolor, only difference being it is easier to edit in uitweak as I don't have to find the hex in syscolor blob. It still doesnt do what I want
I want to get rid of the following white gradient....it might even be a bitmap overlay...:

Also, I'd love to get rid of the start button text, as well as app titles on the task/navbar. So far I haven't found any solution in system level. I know this can be done in the code level.

very cool.
thanks
very nice! I've been looking for this for a while. I'd rather have an independent icon on my taskbar than one replacing the start icon, so this is a great replacement for ArielBattery. Thanks!
Great idea, unfortunately does not work on my HTC Elfin.
Can someone host this somewhere other than ziddu? I can't connect from work (not sure if the site is down or blocked).

Thank you, good sir
awesome! love it.
It doesn't show the number in my P535. The icon is actually changed.
Not working on Samsung i760. Tried both cabs, the numbattery didn't do anything, the QVGA one changed the icon to a solid white one, but no numbers at all. Is there a configuration file to change or something?
Also, it wiped out my background picture of my today screen. Had to set it back up...
does not seem to work on my verizon touch pro
Did not work on my Treo 750 with WM6.0
after installing cab and restarting, I had a second battery icon (that looked like your original from the picture above, vertical lines), but no numbers.
Thanks anyway...
lol... working on polaris... thankfully
Does not work on Samsung Epix (i907).
Why does the thread opener has been banned?
If i´m right, i think he had "stolen" the battery-icon-gauge from another forum-member, and posted it her as his creation.

Great it worked in my TyTn II. Thanks for your effort bro. I am loving it.

[REQ][APP][WM6.5]Titanium/CHome Plugn Re-Namer

I would like to request an app to rename the names of the plugins on the CHome/Titanium Home Screen. My wife's got WM6.5 on her AT&T Tilt but the fact that some of the plugins are lower case and some are upper case is starting to drive her crazy and in return, she's making me crazy because I can't figure out the CPR files.
Here's a screenshot of her Home Screen so you can see exactly what I am talking about:

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As you cal clealy see, some are capitalized and some are not. I would like to see an app that would allow you to change the names of the plugins, including the ability to just capitalize them if desired.
dito
cause i like the name troybook better , bump
I 2nd this post Dharv!! I thought I was the only who didnt like the upper and lower case of the plugins!!!

Have you try out CHome editor by Showaco?
Or you can use total commander (or any other reg. editor). To change Favorite People, go into HKLM/Software/Microsoft/cHome/ATFavePeople/CondensedPage/PluginLabel
And for Facebook, HKLM/Software/Microsoft/cHome/Facebook/CondensedPage/PluginLabel. And do a soft reset when done.
Hope that helps.

I tried setting the 2 capitalized plugins(Facebook and Favorite People) to lowercase through the registry using Resco Registry and it DID work but she still wants everything to be uppercase. She's kinda anal and since we've been together for so long, she's developed a specific taste for how her phone operates just like I have.
I'd be happy if someone could just help me set them to be all uppercase. It doesn't neccessarily have to be an app. I just thought that an app would benefit everyone and not just me so that's why I asked for an app.
You can change some of them with Showaco's Chome Editor. When you start the program go to Menu/Manual Edit Item Values, then click on the plugin you want to edit, then find the item that says pluginlabel. Some you can't change with this program though.

[Q] Vanilla lockscreen variation?

Hey all,
I'm sure several of us are running ROMs which offer the vanilla lockscreen like below:
[courtesy of Neon87: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=751831]
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Above, we can see the icon represents the 'silent' function.
However, I have seen other lockscreens whereby the icon on the right hand side has been changed to someting else, for example: Vibrate Only [which is what I'm after], or launch Music Player, etc.
Anyone know how it's done?
I've been searching for that too, to change the silent button into vibrate but I haven't found anything yet
I hope someone can help us to change that
I think widgetlocker can do that
I'd rather change it without using another app, like changing something in the lockscreen code
I think it has to be changed in the android.policy.jar file since the fix for the lockscreen is coded inthere , but I don't know where and what I would have to change since I don't know much about the android coding

Sorry to disappoint, I found that screen in either one of these threads, both are a 'post your homescreen' type thread:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=476483
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=665991&page=152
I can't remember which page, sorry. But it will have been in the most recent 15 pages of either thread.
so, i have found from where the screenshot came from.
It's from a member who runs a Froyd Villain rom on his hero and the rom is android 2.2
Now, turns out that in android 2.2 this is default the sliding to vibrate instead of silent (tested it out on the android emulator)
I have downloaded a 2.2 rom version and now I will try to find the differences between the 2.1 an 2.2 lockscreen files and hope I will be able to change it
^ thats pretty good going, nice one! I didn't know it was standard in Android 2.2.

Adding custom Background Wallpaper

Guys i am trying to add Background Wallpaper on Home screen! No luck atm..
Anyone want's to suggest anything?????
My idea is very basic and easy though, it's like adding a Desktop wallpaper on you Windows XP/Vista/7 via the registry method!
which basically is string -> c:\documents\blablabla\customimage.jpg
On windows phone more probably would be like this
I got the tweak base that you make the black background to silver and added this path but nothing!
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Themes\1]
"ChromeColor" value= documents\blablabla\customimage.jpg
What is the value though???? String?? value?? dword maybe???
I will try to create one on PC and deploy it to my phone and see...hmmm!!!
Tell me your thoughts!
*snip* MY REGISTRY EDITOR DOESN'T OPEN ANYMORE....LESSON..DON'T MESS WITH THE REGISTRY! LOL! WILL TRY TO INSTALL IT AGAIN WHEN I GO HOME!
MOD EDIT: Profanity removed...please mind the language

Reason why it doesn't work is cause it's most likely relocked itself. Unlock it again and it should work....

The point is tha MS disables Background wallpapers and i want to enable them because i want to and it's nice i guess!
".....We’re not so sure on this one. Some of the text labels are different from what we saw at the MWC unveiling, and Microsoft seemed to indicate that background wallpapers, as seen here, would probably not be allowed...."
