hi all,
I have performed multiple searches on the forums and on the wiki and cant really find what i need, I currently have one rom installed and wish to change to anouther, however i want to keep the top bar / title bar icons and TF3D icons from my existing rom.
I have extracted all the relevant manila files relating to the TF3D tab icons but cant locate what i need for the topbar (volume, headphones, signal, battery etc) can anyone point me in the right thread direction please or offer any advice ?
Many thanks

I personal use this cab for the top bar. May be what your looking for

It would help to see what you are trying to recover.
But, here is a possible suggestion that might fit: FInixNOverBattery http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...ght=finixnover

Thanks for the response guys,
will try and post some pics up when i get home from work. Not feasible for me to do so just now.
In particular what i am after are the topbar icons relating to volume, signal strentgh, battery level, multiple notifcation icon, headphones connected icon etc.
Need the manila files for those specific icons ideally. I suppose i could be cheeky and approach pzucchel directly to see if he could give me the info.

Some wm6.5 folder icons, various categories

as a starting point, and by scouring the web for more decent folder icons, I've put together a simple collection of .PNG folder icons that you can use with windows mobile 6.5 start menu. Using Re-Start ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=481379 ) is an easy way to assign this icons to your folders.
There's two styles here, style "a_" and "b_". I take no credit for creating any of the artwork or even most of the icons, this is just a general compilation for my own personal use that I'd thought I'd share with the community. Style "b_" includes a few of gfreek's icons and adds a bunch more. I tried to add variations for most of them as well.

Nice thanks. Fit in well with other standard icons without the need to change tham all to match.

Is it easy to change program icons on the TP2?

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.

Custom Icons [how do I?]

So what is the process for getting custom icons onto the tablet and having them properly associated with their respective apps?
Say, I have a new Browser icon I want to use... what's the next step?
Can 'o' worms question, I know...

Personally I use folder organizer (from the market). It allows you to change an icon for a particular app or create a folder with several app in it. For example, a games folder with the icon of your choice will open a folder with whatever games you put in it (and can customize those icons as well)
Hope that helps.

Thanks Steve, I'll take a look at that now.
EDIT***
Okay, sorta works but a little too convoluted... You have to change each icon individually then add each app you've changed as a widget. I'm looking to do something more in the way of an icon pack that will swap out all the icons at once (of the ones I've made and apps supported).

I use Desktop Visualizer; however, this is also a 'one at a time' process.
I am not familiar with a process to change the icons 'en mass'.
This is a great thread for icon packs and there's some basic information on changing icons in the first post. It's possible though, that one of the icon developers listed in the thread will be able to answer your question.

Thanks for the info Franwella
I'll make my morning reading.
