change icon system - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

hello guys .. am new
and I would like to greet everyone!
I write to ask if you can change the icon system (the ones in the programs, settings tab, etc.). with which programs?
Thanks to all and I hope you respond
hello

a good program is manilla customiser v0.8 which allows you to change separate elements of the TF3D interface (clocks, icons, curtains, sliders + a few other things). This program can be found here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437420

I don't use the TF3D but I would still want to customize the folders icon (start menu/programs).
As it is now the only icons I have are the [games] and [office mobile] icons (icon.ink file). Ive tried to import the icon.ink file from my Glofiish X500+ but when I transfer them they don't work anymore...
Any suggestions?

Hi
i am useing SK Shortcut Manager to do this.
http://www.s-k-tools.com/sksmgr/sksmgr.html
and the .lnk file doesn' t work if it is transferd to another device for a simple reason.the icon itself is stored in .dll file or in .exe file.you would have to transfer those files to.if you are interested PM me and i will upload my .dll files with icons.
sorry for my bad english

Menu Icons 4 all ROMS

Hi guys.. i am very bored of the standard custom icons shown into Start-> Programs... so tonight i have done a cab which installs a "minimum.dll" file, which is an icon library, and who make follow dirs into the menu:
Applications
Games
Internet
Multimedia
Phone
System
Utility
Mobile Office
Network
In every dir there is an icon. file which has a string inside:
#\Windows\minimum.dll,-4
By changing the number, you can assign a different icon to the folder you're in.
If some rom cooker wants its custom set of icons.. pm me.. HERE is a good archive of icons
Attached the CAB, no need to reboot, & image of avaiable icons in Minimum icon set and its relative code.
SEE ALSO POST n°5
Nice work dear. Applause for it..
I think I will try to Cook my own rom using this. Thank will let you know how it works.
For Italian friends who asked for... tonight i'll post 3 Icons pack in cab format, note that the one posted is in english (..just rename folders' name in "programmi" directory
be patient
Ok guys, i have no time to make the cabs because i'm very busy at this time, however it's VERY SIMPLE.
All is explained in the first post (concerning the icon.lnk file inside the folder to skin).
In each zip there is the dll, to copy in \windows, and an image which describes the icon number.
If someone provide me some good icons, i'll pack them into a dll file.
To see the name of iconpack's image, wait with the mouse over and erad the filename.jpg
Thanks a lot mate
Youre the man!
I tried..
God job, thanks for information & sharing
hi there. Very good job but i can't understand how to install them
Lovely
I like this a lot!!
It is VGA icons? Or QVGA?
both resolutions
Great, Thanks a lot.
How do I create my own .dll? I have a lot of icons but no instruction to create a .dll of them.
If there a chance to pimp the folder background from white to some other colour or picture?

Hi SkizZO, How do I create my own .dll?
Thank you.
You have to pack 16x16,32x32, 64x64 images to an .ico file, or edit an .ico file deleting unwanted resolutions...
Then group all icons, numbered & ordered in an "Icon library"
I've used ArtIcons Pro to do this. The icon library has the .icl extension.
Now you have to compile it into a dll (I have used GConvert)
Remember that WM supports 256 colors icons, so if you use more colors, is wasted space.
PS: Post your icons here!!!
any chance i could use some folders with the same style as the ones already on my phone? ie the yellow games folder etc...

Cube Icons

Hi,
I am currently working on customizing my Cube to show my icons and programs.
I didn't want to overwrite the existing AL files, so I have put the custom files into: \My Documents\My Pictures\Cubeicons\Operamini_bottom.brn
but when I link to this in IconPath the cube is simply black at this icon?!
After one time usage, it shows the highlighted icon the whole time?!

To my knowledge, on the Nike (Dual) all icons have to be in \Windows\ - unless somebody has yet found a way of moving them and changing the default path? (please let me know if so!)
So, to solve your problem...
1. Copy your file into \Windows\, but call it something new so you don't have to overwrite any existing file.
2. Use the newest beta of Touch Settings (v2.12pre onwards) to change the icons - please see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556
.....if you want to change the MediaHub (3 app side) icons, at the moment you'll need to use the 'Advanced' tab and enter the full path manually.
hope this helps

Thanks,
I have managed to overwrite existing files, so I do have my icons.
but changing all the animation screens, is a lot of work!

Changing program default icons?

Is there a way to change the default icon associated with a program on WM6?
so do i have to move the exe file into desktop, change icon, and move back?
You don't have to change the icons in the programs you can insted make a dll with icons and add to the links of the program.
so the link if opened with notepad would look something like this 98#"\Windows\cool_app_look.exe"?icon.dll,-46
you can also edit the icons in .exe with reshack

[Q] osKitchen Leo 31.4 base today icon start menu

I use osKitchen 1.33.5 with an WWE base leo image 3.14 rom for the HD2
In my kitchen I have been able to change all the start menu icons so they can be added purely by clicking a button in oskitchen. There is one icon I have left on the start menu that I can not seem to get.
I am trying to find the entry for the today icon so I can remove it and add as an app.dat entry in the build. I have done some recearch and all I can find is that the reference to the today icon seems to be in the shellres.192.dll file stored in the Base_DPI_192 folder in the OS.
I am not sure how to modify this and remove the entry. I then also need to create an app.dat file that will allow the user to add back in to the rom if necessary.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers!
You can't delete "Today" icon from start menu, especially via app.dat/initflashfiles.txt, as it is hardcodded. Perhaps there is a way to hide it via registry, don't know.
Start_Icon_Today.png
I don´t sure what you want. You can use the icon you want and rename it. If you want delete it perhaps you can use a .provxml like the one in HTC Messaging Client. You can delete the link you want usin the formule of the .provxml in the directory of the .xml
Regards
Im actually looking to see if I can have the option of not having the icon there at all? In my kitchen, you can choose the icons you want in the start menu simply by clicking them.
It then copies the .lnk file into the start menu by using an app.dat file. I was looking to see if this could be done for the today icon.
why not just replace the Start_Icon_Today.png ?
What I've done was, I put a folder in EXT (EXT Packages in osKitchen) called Theme, then inside that folder, I have a new folder called "StartMenu_Icons" (Am using Firestorm icons btw)
folder structure was like this:
Sources
--Devices
----HTC <my device>
------EXT Packages
--------Theme
----------StartMenu_Icons
------------files
--------------and all Start_Icon_<name>.png
am not sure if that's what you're trying to do
What I am looking to do is to give the user the option to include the today icon simply by clicking a button with in oskitchen. I have been able to do this with all other start menu icons but it doesn't seem possible to do it with the today icon as it seems to be hard encoded
