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...
Can anyone tell me what's the easiest way of creating a manila theme? I would like to make a slider with my own icons and background. Thanks in advance.
i second that...i'm also interested in givin back to the community
manila editor
just copy paste that to the search bar
when u've edited your manila files create a cab file from the changed manilla's
and voila u've got yourself a "theme"
You can also use CFC Gui to export manila files as png, edit them and then replace them with your own gfx.
CFC Gui also supports lossless image compression to save ram, your manilla.exe must be patched first though.
good morning:
before you guys tell me to search, i have already did over and over again. all the threads i see was not entirely clear. some threads say soemthign about having a manila editor and i would need a hex editor and stuff. other people say i jsut use the change wallpaper setting in the settings tab ( i tried, it doesnt work). i also tried downloading a configurator ( dimaond) and it doesnt work. so i want to know, how exactly do you change a wallpaper for touchflo cooked roms? ( please, no vague , shortcut descriptions). i will very much appreciate it. thanks.
p.s. i mean to change only the home screen, not necessarily all tabs, but that can help to.
First we'd need to know what touchflo you're using, TF3D 1 or TF3D 2 "Landscape".
For the first, you need to edit a manila skin file, extract to a png with CFG Editor (search on XDA), edit it in photoshop, alter the manila skin file back with CFG Editor into the png you made, then hex-edit the file and paste it in your windows directory, together with another file that you'd need to download. Aka, it's a hassle. I can't tell you where to download all this, as I don't remember.
TF3D 2 its easier, just need to edit 4 skin files, without hex editing.
Are you sure you want to do this?
And how can I change the TouchFlo 3D 1 wallpaper in the cab version?

thanks for the reply. sorry i forgot to mention im using touchflo 2
but yes i would like to attempt it if you can give me directions on how to do it. i appreciate it a lot.
Edit the following files: (get them from your windows folder)
29cff4fe_manila
058acf31_manila
77feee1d_manila
70083a29_manila
Two of 'em are for portrait, two for landscape.
Use cfc gui to extract the pngs and recompile them when you're done.
Copy them to your \windows folder and you're all set.

is this suppose 2 be done on the phone or comp? as for getting the file out of the phone, its not showing up on desktop.
Hi
How does one cook a custom theme into a ROM and make that the default theme? I've tried editing quite a few registry entrys and it still does not work.
Another question along the same lines, how do i cook in a custom today wallpaper? I've tried changing registry entrys here as well but it didn't work either
Thanks
Mod edit: Solved thread
well...
long history here...
First.. the themes for 6.5 and 6.5.X are not the same theme, so genereally if you want to cook inside a theme that you have made... simply be sure that you have a TSK that contains all the registry entries for images and the two images in JPG format with your size screen set them as "read only" and "archive" attribs then save the cab as winmo cab then rename it from .cab to .tsk then.... put it into a EXT pkg in your EVK kitchen or whatever you have EVK or OSK make a pkg called "my theme name" inside a folder called "FILES" inside that folder all images of the theme and the TSK too... then go to your RUNCC or autoinstall or however you have and set in the txt file this comand...
TSK: \Windows\My theme name.tsk
at the end of the file this way in the botting procces frist customization the theme will be set as default
is the dirt way but you can make it safely instead of changing many regs that simply you will forgot the original
Y'all must to remember that if you want to patch the theme or install a them in a runing working rom in teh device you must to trust sign the TSK but if you are cooking the kitchen will do it for you
The wall paper is easy: just set whatever pic you want as the wallpaper using either Home-settings or the pic and video tool. Then open \windows, and look for the newest files. You'll see two files named stwater_###x###.png or something very similar (could be tdywater). Grab these two files and then when you're editing a .tsk file, include the files in it. Now you're done.
If you want to cook the theme straight into the rom, then you need to dump all of the reg keys and put them into an app.reg file in a package that runs at the end of the build. Name your two wallpaper files (portrait and landscape) "classicblue_stwater_480_640.jpg" and "classicblue_stwater_640_480.jpg," and stick them in the same EXT. (To get the proper names for your device, look in (SYS\Build#\dpi_192_resh_480_resv_640\COMMON\base_dpi_192_resh_480_resv_640), obviously with the proper resolution.) Look through your add2config.txt or config.txt files, and make sure that no other stock .tsk is run during customization.
I know i to cook a theme and set as default and blabla....but its interesting know how to trust sign the TSK when i make a theme.cab to put in a working rom...can you explain?

A way that bobsbbq has taught me, and has worked for a 6.5.5 theme
make a new folder in your EXT packes, called whatever the theme is, and in there make another folder called files, in the files folder copy across everything in the theme's cab. then go back into the root of the themes package folder and make a new text document called add2config in there paste the following:
TSK: \Windows\XXXX.tsk
where XXXX is the exact name of yout .tsk file found in the themes cab (so it will also be in the files folder if you want to copy the file name exactly.
Save the text document and then just select it in your kitchen

I started having problems with Farmer Ted's way so I tried this one instead. It works perfectly except for one thing, that it needs a restart before it's effective. Is there any way to get it working on first boot?
I use this one:
OEM\ExtendedPKG\config.txt
Code:
LOCK:Enabled
TSK: \WINDOWS\Htc_black.tsk
LOCK:Disabled
RST: Reset
This will set that theme on first boot, of course you need to have RunnCC running.
You must change Htc_black.tsk with your tsk name.

I did mine exactly like that but it doesn't work. It only works after I reboot the phone atleast once
EDIT: I noticed if i go to settings/home, it is set as the default theme (it's hilighted) but it's not actually visible anywhere.
EDIT2: Never mind it's sorted out. I went back to Farmer Ted's way and got it to work exactly how I wanted it.

Does this method select the theme on 1st boot?
btw, how do you select a default Wallpaper for Manila's Home Tab?
sometimes you need to take your theme tsk rename it to .cab open it with cab manager and change the pics inside
the manila use as default a pic inside the EXT or OEM pkg it contains the manila app... search for the image and just replace it same size, and attributes.

Thanks. Will try it out
what would the image name be? in EXT Manila.exe is only in Manila_Core and I don't have any image there except Manila files...
In OEM I saw the default HTC Black.tsk along with HTC stwater images...
Do I need to replace these 2 Images (HTC Black Stwater... 480x800 and 800x480)?
So, I'm pretty new at creating working ext packages from cab files, and I could use some help.

Cooking that package, I have a few problems. When I hold down the power button, it says exe can't be found. So, just to make sure that the visual aspect is working, I try searching for quickshutdown.exe in \Windows and can't find it.
So, what's wrong in my .dat and .reg?
Thanks a lot for the help, this will definitely give me a better understanding of how EXT packages work!

First of all, I think that these lines in your app.dat are unnecessary; because when you cook the ROM then the files that are not specified with the path in app.dat land automatically in the Windows folder:
Directory("\Windows"):-File("bootloader.exe","%Windows%\bootloader.exe")
Directory("\Windows"):-File("ConfigQS.exe","%Windows%\ConfigQS.exe")
Directory("\Windows"):-File("DLLSetup.dll","%Windows%\DLLSetup.dll")
Directory("\Windows"):-File("QuickShutdown.exe","%Windows%\QuickShutdown.exe")
Directory("\Windows"):-File("Short_Power.exe","%Windows%\Short_Power.exe")

Second: All of the lines are wrong. Example:

Click to expand...

It should be:

Third: Open up the file _Shutdown.lnk in notepad and see if it links to the \Windows\QuickShutdown.exe

Maybe you will find something in my post that can help you.
It's much, much easier to do than the way you're trying to do it. First, copying all of those files is really wasteful. If you look at your registry keys, there are paths there for the resource files. Instead of creating a \windows sub-directory, you could just set the path as \windows. Then, the files that are in rom will be used, and you won't need duplicates, or any of the app.dat lines (except for the .lnk).
Change the .rgu to this:
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Manila_Config QuickShutdown]
"SourcesDirectory"="\\Windows\\"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Manila_QuickShutdown]
"actionShortPress"=hex:00
"BootActiv"=hex:01
"langFile"="\\Windows\\lang.english.txt"
"RestartActiv"=hex:01
"ScreenOffActiv"=hex:01
"ShutdownActiv"=hex:01
"SleepActiv"=hex:01
Try deleting the DLLSetup.dll-it's really unlikely that you need it. It's just cabinstall information, most likely. Unless you really want all those other lang files, I'd just delete all but the English one. If you cook them all in, it's possible that you'll need to get the others into \windows\lang (it doesn't look like there's a reg key for the lang directory, just for the file being used). I don't know, I've never used the app. As mentioned above, you may also need to fix the path of the shortcut.
You may also want to look into compressing the png files, although it's not really worth it if they're only 1-2 kb each.
This is what I use. I put it together and it worked, so I never did much investigation to see if it could be optimized.
One thing to be aware of ... if you have carrier files which fire provxml, it is possible that the provxml could do something to overwrite the poweroffwarning file here. Same is true if you have a poweroffwarning file getting copied in later in the build process.

Great call! Worked immediately! Thanks a lot!
One more quick question. Cooking total commander is being dumb. The EXT I create doesn't have any exe files in the "files" folder, and doesn't extract any into windows. It just isn't working well lol.
Also, what version or what addon enables the user to hold the slash button and bring up the menu where you can hide exit blah blah total commander?
Thanks
Smith
Total Commander is easy to cook in. Again, you don't need app.dat lines, except for the shortcut (make sure it points to windows). Just put the .exe and the plugins (registry, wlan, ftp and webdav, if you have it) in windows. Cook in the reg settings, and you're good to go. I would convert the exe to a module as well.

So... Create the EXT and recmod without any reg or dat entries except icon and shortcut?
No, include the ghisler reg key (hkcu-software-ghisler). Set it up however you like it (like w/ a fully loaded hotlist). But don't move the files around w/ the app.dat.

Hello Farmer Ted - what for is the file that you attached?
It's a plugin for WebDav, which is the new big thing. I have no clue wtf it does.
Get the ghisler reg key from the device, not the cab. That's always the way to do it. Kheb 1.1 is the way to go for making packages. Cab converters miss a lot of stuff.
Edit: here's my package; it's in oem form (for osbuilder), and it looks like there's a second file needed to get webdav to work in the plugins. Edit the hotlist however you want it (it has folders on my sd card, which are useless to anyone else). It doesn't have a shortcut or initflashfiles.txt in it, since I don't use them for my start menu.
To be more specific about TCMD, here is the output I get with OSkitchen cab to ext:
TCMD>Files
And within the files directory:
000cecmd.002
CECMD_~2.001
00000ftp.003
00000LAN.005
registry.004
TcmObex3.007
TcmObex5.006
So what do I do with those files lol

Get the ghisler reg key from the device, not the cab. That's always the way to do it. Kheb 1.1 is the way to go for making packages. Cab converters miss a lot of stuff.
Edit: here's my package; it's in oem form (for osbuilder), and it looks like there's a second file needed to get webdav to work in the plugins. Edit the hotlist however you want it (it has folders on my sd card, which are useless to anyone else). It doesn't have a shortcut or initflashfiles.txt in it, since I don't use them for my start menu.

Thanks for your package, much appreciated! This thread has taught me a lot about how ext's work
Do you know what all those strange files I talked of 2 posts up are though? Like, how do I put those all together?

I'm not sure what the technical name is, but those are the raw files from the cab; if you extract the cab with winzip or 7-zip, that's the file names. If you give them the proper extensions (.dll, exe, etc) then you can recover the proper files. It looks like the unpacking didn't work properly.
